And THE BEACH REVIEW And THE BEACH AI)VANCE
VOLUME 3 BEACH, GOLDEN VALLEY COUNTY, NORTH DAKOTA THURSDAY,- DEC. 22, 1938 NUMBER 12
Beach Buccaneers
Win Over Wibaux,
18.14, Here Fri.
h
Paced by sharp shooting Russell
Noyes, who rung up ten of his team's
18 points, the local high school bas-
ketball team defeated Wibaux here
last Friday night in a fast and rough
game.
Playing under their new name of
Buccaneers the locals were out to do
justice to its meaning by backing
down from no one and taking advan-
tage of every opportunity that came
along. The name was selected this
last week in a contest put on by the
high school.
The Buc's took an early 8-2 lead at
quarter time which Wibaux was never
able to overcome although she came
within two points of the locals. It
was only in the first quarter that
Beach held much of an edge in play-
ing or scoring.
In the second quarter both Noyes
and Hardy were a.ble to penetrate into
V/:b~ux's defense several times but
nc~ find the hoop but once with the

As an indication of the tight de-

Beach's first game:
The entire contest was marked with
fast playing and fouls. A t~otal of 24
fouls being called on the two teams.
Kellar and Stair turned in the best
performances for Wil)aux while the
honors were quite fairly distributed
among the members of the entire lo-
cal team with Noyes, Hardy and Gil-
man doing all of the scoring.
This was the last game for the
Buccaneers before the holidays.
In the preliminary game the Fresh-
men defeated a Sophomore-Junior
team.
Boisen and Bills were the dfficials.

practically all the time, but were hard

Then Sunday afternoon they went

for a final ruling.
judge Berry said the amendment to
the present Old Age Assistance Act
was unconstitutional because none of
the money appropriated by the 1937
state legislature may be used to pay
assistance in excess of $30 monthly and
because the measure violates section
185 of the state constitution which pro-
rides for "reasonable assistance."
The test suit involved George and
Ma~aret F_e~xoth, who were denied an
increase to $6~ of an Old Age Assist-
ance grant by the Morton county Wel-
fare Board on the grounds that it was
in excess of the amount needed by
them.
In the meantime welfare board and
other state officials are faced with a
serious shortage of relief funds thru
out the state, precipitating a situation
labelled "critical" by welfare board
members.
Transfer of the $425,000 from the
states' general fund to the state wel-
fare board fund has not been made bY
the equalization board. Many counties
are without funds to pay relief expen-
ditures for the last three months of
the year.
John Hagan, Commissioner of Agri-
culture and Labor, equalization board
member is ill in a St. Augustine, Fla.,
hospital, and the board meeting has
b~n Imst~oned pending his return to
the sta~e.
At the last regular meeting of the t
local Royal Neighbor camp, officers
for the ensuing year were selected, and
they are as follows:

Get Hi.Way Help
The stare highway building program
and what is necessary to secure as
much as possible of the $3,800,000 that
has been allotted to this state for
highway building in the next two years
was discussed at a meeting at the
Court House Monday evening attended
by some of~ the county officials, Lions
Club members" a~d"~ other interested
citizens.
F. G. Orr, representing the Greater
North Dakota: A~oolation, presented
the facts and possible ways by which
the state may secure at least a por-
tion of the government money and
continue the highway building pro-
gram and asked that the matter be
discussed as Widely as possible so that
the legislature could take such action
as approved by the majority of the
people of the state.
A round table discussion followed,
from which it appeared that majority
favored an additional one cent gas
tax. less the same proportion of re-
funds to farmers as before with more
ridgid enforcment to cut out excess
claims or ~fraud. It was estinmted
this would ,bring about $1,200,000 per
year which might be used to match

$2,400,000 a year for state highway

basis it will take around four more
years to complete 3,500 miles of pri-
mary highway system in this state

A. M. Stoddard
Passes Away Here
_- Sunday Morning
The many friends throughout this
entire area were deeply shocked and
grieved last Sunday to hear that early
that morning A. M. Stoddard, one of
the early residents of Beach, had
passed away ,here in the city. Mr.
Stoddard was just a few days over 80
years of age at the time of his pass-
ing. He had been in poor health for
several years back and recently his
condition had become steadily worse,
despite best efforts to aid him.
Funeral services were held yesterday
afternoon at 2 p. m. at the local
Methodist Church, to which Mr. St0cl-
dard had been a loyal and devoted
member for many years. Rev. Grant
Moore officiated at the services, and
interrment was made "in the local
cemetery, with the -local Masonic
lodge conducting their ritual at ¢l%e
grave. The last rites were attended
by a large crowd of friends of the de-
ceased~ who came to pay their last
tribute to him.
Ambrose Myron Stoddard was born
on December 7, 1858, at Ontario, in
Monroe county, Wisconsin, and there
he grew to manhood. On December
12. 1891, he was united in marriage to
Miss Eliza Annis Dempsey of R~cktol%
Wisconsin. They made their home a~
Wliton. Wisconsin, for a number of
years, where Mr. Stoddard was enga-
ged in business. Previous to that he
farmed quite extensively at that place.
They came to Beach in 1912, and
they have since resided in the city.
Soon after coming here he was elect-
ed to the office of justice of peace
and police magistrate, and has held
those positions ever since, always be-
ing reelected.
Mr. Stoddard was a member of the
local Methodist Church. and was also
a member of the Masonic lodge at
Wilton, Wisconsin.
Surviving him are his wife, Mrs.
Annis Stoddard, one brother, Mr. E.
A. Stoddard.,~.the Bonnl~ View oom.
munity north of Beach, and one sister,
Mrs. Arvilla Wallace of Pasadena,
California, as well as a host of other
relatives and friends.
Sincere sympathy is extended the
bereaved relatives and friends of the
deceased in their time of sorrow.

ricultural Conservation program has

IN NEW LOCATION
The first of the week Delo Logan
and his asststant, Otto Wojahn, corn-
pleted the ~ving of the Logan Auto
Service eq~ment into its new loca-
ton on Blartche street, on the north
side of the track, in the new building
which was erected there this fall.
They are now all set for any kind of
garage business, and have been quite
busy since moving over. The former
Logan garage building will still be
used for dead car storage, however,
Delo says. The genera~ public is cor-
dially invited to drop in and look
over the new place at any time.
