(By George Abdouch)
The third annual North Nebraska

peted out of the fifteen who were in
vited. The following towns partici
pated in the meet: Norfolk, Neligh,
Stuart, Atkinson, O’Neill, Butte, Bas
sett. Due to the high winds, only two

feet, 8 inches. Eaton, of Stuart, set a
new record in the discus with a heave

was 111 feet.
The sprints were the fastest that
were ever run in this section of the
country. In the morning preliminar
ies the 100-yard record was broken
by the following men: Lyman of Bas

O'NEILL MAY HAVE A
COM M UNITY HOSPITAL
Mr. and Mrs. Tyler, of Tilden,
Nebraska, were in O’Neill Wednes
day promoting a hospital for O’Neill
to be operated along Community
lines, permitting all of the physicians
of the county to have equal rights.
Mr. and Mrs. Tyler have been man
aging the Tilden Hospital for several
years and are leaving the hospital at
Tilden owing to a change in the plan
of operation; a suitable building cpn
be secured in O’Neill for a six double
room hospital that can be rented.
It is the plan to have these rooms
furnished by individuals or organiza
tions, with a bed, chair and bed-stand
and anything else that they desire
for the comfort of the patient. It is
estimated that about fl.OOO will be
required to put the hospital in first
class condition.
Several O’Neill citizens have al
ready volunteered to furnish a room.
O’Neill needs a hospital very much
and any move along the line of secur
ing such an institution will be gladly
received by everyone.
