ST A S ] 4 The Golden Valley News 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 r::ut that e:ch team scored 3 points ca_h m p:ake the sco:e 11-5 at the ha'~f. ~ur" ~ the half PrcYessor Deehr :r,:. i!i~ l!tP~ German band pl3yed ~o~q !h'vly tunes' that seemed .... _) :1-~ bvys from Montana more .... cur ]5c~1 pirates.

The Hawks took an early lead in the contest and were ahead practically all the time, but were hard pressed On several occasions. Then Sunday afternoon they went to Wibaux for a battle with the strong independent quint there and were de- feated by a score of 39 to 28. Bair of Wibaux was ejected from the contest in the first quarter for unnecessary roughness, and later on Beach lost Hardy and Sevland with four personal fouls each. Three other Beach players each had three fouls called on them, Royal Neighbors Elect Officers 0rr Explains Ne- cessary Steps To 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: Oracle--Laura Sticka Vice Oracle--Marcella Kukowski Receiver--Minnie Smith Recorder--Nellie Woodhull Chancellor--Olive Nutter Marshall--Velarie Oas Assistant Marshall--Ina Still Inner Sentinei~Ploy Woodhull O~ter Sentinei--Olg~ Moyer Mana~e~therine Marman, 2 years; Emma" Brown, 3 years Musician--June Noyes Physiclans---Drs.

JOHN ROBINSON CHRISTMAS PARTY The John Robinson Club of the Congregational Church held a Christ- mas party at the p~rsonage on Mon- day evening. Charles Neudeck and Gerhardt Fondrick were in charge of the games. Refreshments were served by Mrs. In~ ~ and M~.~ eye.ago 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 government money and give around $2,400,000 a year for state highway building and black-topping On this basis it will take around four more years to complete 3,500 miles of pri- mary highway system in this state where warranted by the greatest use, or the greatest good to the greatest number.

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. Dec. 31 Is Final AAA Accept- ance Date The final date for acceptance of signed work sheets under the 1939 Ag- ricultural Conservation program has been set at December 31, counw con- servation committees in local charge of the work notified by John T. E. Dinwoodie, state AAA executive officer. The work sheets are to be fried by co- operators with their county commit- tees. Under the schedule set up by the state committee, completion of all list- ing sheets under the 1939 program is expected by February 15th. Dinwoodie has announced for the state that the tota soil depleting acre- age allotments under the 1939 program probably will be released to the coun- ties before January 1. 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. for the use they make of our state higrways and the maintenance. Trucks will probably be required to pay a big- ger share than heretofore as these are believed to do the greatest dam- age and wear.
