That year he drew his first major honor when he was the first boy west of the Mississippi to produce a ton and a half of pork from one sow in 180 days. Every year for the past five years he has sold a ton litter at the Ogden union stockyards annual junior swine sale and during that time has taken in over $1900 from My Own, his original sow.

C. to Play Bobcats Fri. and Sat. complet- - With their California tour ,he Utah Aggie basketball team settled down to its conference schedule, the first games of the schedule to be played this Friday and Saturday in the Aggie gym with the Bobcats of Montana State College. The Aggie invasion of California, while very unsuccessful as far as games won and lost is concerned, was nevertheless extremely beneficial to the team which is made up mostly of new comers. Only two veterans are back is suit this year, and consequently the experience gained in the coast games did much to acquaint the new men with varsity ball. The starting lineup at present is composed of Everett Campbell at center; Cleo Petty and Conley Watts, forwards; and Warren Allsop and Frank McNiel, guards. Campbell should see his best this year. He confrom the coast sistently got the centers and scored well in every gome. On the forward line, Clea Petty is the new sensation. Petty is an aggressive player, but despite his rugged play he was the leading scorer in the California games. Conley Watts at the other post is a dangerous scorer, possibly the most dangerous on the team, but he failed to lut his stride in California. Warren "Sonny" Allsop, ne of the finest guards in the con- erence, played wonderful ball. All sop should see his best year this year and appears well on his way to another position. Frank McNeil is the other member of the starting five. He is a freshman guard and his development of late has been raptip-o- ff id. Other squad members who are certain to see a great deal of action are Joe Lambert, Shelby West, Harold Hansen and Howard Blackbum, forwards; Vertis Wood, center; Floyd Young, Wayne Garff, Red Osborne and Mel Luke, guards. Night School to Start Monday, at B. R. H S. representative group of patrons attended a meeting, Monday night at the high school, where it was decided to have night school again this year, similar to that held last year, commencing Monday, January 16th. Twenty different courses are being offered. Three periods of 45 minutes each, will be given each Monday night the first one beginning at 7 o'clock. All interested are invited to attend.

The game vt&s fast and well played, first team leading and then 1 the other. Thatcher was leading at half time, and they were still 4 points in front with but two minutes to play. And then the fireworks started. Harris and Conger, Trernon-ton'- s two fast and clever forwards, worked two nice plays for Hunsaker sank one from the corner, and Randall put the game on ice with a foul pitch. Golden Adams was high point man of the game with twenty points, and Harris with 11 points was high point man for Tremonton. Howard Getz, at guard for Tremonton, was the out. standing man on the flooi-- He broke would have that after pass up pass been sure baskets for Thatcher. Conger and Hunsaker played a nice floor game, and Floyd Adams stood out for the losers. The sixty or seventy supporters that went with the team to Thatcher not only saw a fine game, but were highly entertained by the hysterical actions of the Thatcher timekeeper. This victory practically assures Tremonton of a place in the stake tournament to be held in March. With three teams tied for first place, the northern division should give the fans some exciting games during the second half. East Garland has proved themselves to be a real "dark horse."
