THE R1MROCK ,c,CHO Friday, February 3, 1939 Page F . Poly Crusaders Keep League Record Clean League-leading Crusaders of the Billings Poly ran true to form to defeat the Yellowjackets of the E.M.S.N.S. with a 48-31 score in a conference basketball game here Tuesday night. The normal school team made the first count when Marcus scored from the right corner, but the Crusaders came back to take a lead which they never lost. Late in the first heat the Yellow- jackets climbed within five points of the Poly and the half-time score stood 19-14. During the first few minutes of play in the second half, the Yellowjackets brought the score to 21-18, but the Poly began hitting the hoop and pulled away to a com- manding lead. Wilson paced the Poly scorers with 16 points, closely followed by Bar- gen with 15. Normal's high-point men were Stark with 12 and Bab- cock with 8. The victory brought the Crusaders' conference wins to eight straight. They held a previous 48-27 win over the Jackets in a game on the Poly floor January 10. 'Jackets Lose Three (Continued from Page 1) leading. Gallant, Mines forward, led the scoring with 17 points. Stark topped Normal scorers with 11 points. The Mines team made it two straight the next night by downing the Yellowjackets 62-37. As in the previous game the second half saw the 'Jacket attack collapse. Connie Lundgren, Mines all-con- ference guard, led the scorers with 19 points. Capt. Wayne Babcock led the E.M.S.N.S. attack with 14 points.

Normal Wins Over Carroll (Continued from Page 1) The game marked a complete re- versal in Normal school playing form. Previously they had played good ball the first half only to weaken in the second. The Carroll college quintet com- plete a three-day stand in Billings with games against the league-lead- ing Poly Crusaders, tonight and tomorrow night. The E.M.S.N.S. team gets its next taste of conference competition on a three-game trip, February 9, 10 and 11. The first two games are against Carroll in Helena and then the 'Jackets go north to Havre to face the Northern Montana college team.

Goebel, associate editor of the \Slone Teacher\ at the Dickinson State Teachers' college at Dickinson, N. D. Mr. Goebel made comment on the editorial appearing in the December 9 \Echo entitled \A Modern Girl Wonders,\ written by Mrs. Ruth Miller, a December graduate. In her editorial Mrs. Miller con- tended that modern girls were not receiving the courtesies accorded her mother by the gentlemen of this period in comparison to \when pa was courtin' ma.\ Mr. Goebel feels that her condemnation was biased in that \too many women of today fail to display any expectation of the niceties the gentlemen might accord them.\ Appearing in the \College Ex- change\ section of the January 13 issue of the \Nomoco\ of the North- ern Montana college at Havre are two editorials from the Echo. They were \Three Types of Teachers\ by Ernestine Hanley and \Quiet Please,\ an editorial on the noise in the li- brary, written by Pearl Baird.

Grads Teach Scouting To Boys in Schools Floyd Beeler and Chuck Holmes, both of the spring of '38, and John Lamers, fall of '38, are assuming leadership in boy scout activities in the communities in which they teach, according to Dr. McMullen. Floyd and Chuck are scoutmasters of troops in Gardiner and Jordan respectively, and John has applied for permission to direct lone scout work in Rothiemay, as there are not enough boys to form a troop. The troops of Beeler and Holmes will be under the supervision of the local council, but John Lamers' ac- tivities at Rothiemay will be through the boy scout offices at Great Falls.
