On The Sidelines
By Observer
O’Neill High has finally the
coach that will succeed Don Ander
son and Harold Connors: he is
Coach E. M. Segel. As far as we
can ler.rr. he came form Los Ange
les, Cal., where he has been teach
ing. Mr. Segel along with being a
football and basketball coach also
will take the O’Neill boxing team
under his wing, as he has taught
this sport elsewhere. The Obser
ver wishes him good luck in his
new field here at O’Neill High,
This coming week O’Neill will
be host to the Annual Class B
Tourney. Ten teams will partici
pate; of these Long Pine, Butte,
Atkinson and St. Mary’s are seed
ed. Our predictions are: The
first round;
Butte over Spencer.
St. Mary’s over Orchard.
The second round:
Butte, over Page.
Atkinson over Springview.
Long Pine over Stuart.
St. Mary’s over Lynch.
The semifinals will find:
Butte over Atkinson.
St. Mary’s over Long Fine.
The finals:
Butte over St. Mary’s.
Of course you know we could be
wrong as we often pick things just
the opposite from the way they do
come out and the reason we pick
Butte over St. Mary’s is due to the
loss during the season which Butte
handed to St. Mary’s, but since
that time the Cardinals have not
been idle and 1 believe will give
Butte a better fight than during
the season.
Some of the better games of the
tournament, we think, will be the
Butte-Spencer game, as these two
schools are traditional rivals and
should put up a good scrap.
Butte over Atkinson should be
another good game as the big boys
from Atkinson should turn on
plenty of power to try and down
Butte.
Of course the finals will be a real
tussle with St. Mary’s and Butte
battling it out for the right U> rep
resent this section in the state
tourney.
County Spelling Contest
To Be Held Next Month
The Holt County Spelling con
test will be held in the Atkinson
public school, March 22, beginning

Jolly Star Project Club
Th Jolly Star Project Club met
at the home of Mrs. Robert Miller
on February 18, with seven memb
ers present. The lesson on con
serving energy was conducted by
our president, Mrs. 0. V. Oole.
Ways to increase our personal
efficiency were taught. Poor post
ure affects our health and causes
us to tire mole easily, so we were
shown the effects of performing
different tasks at incorrect work
ing heights upon our posture. Cor
rect fitting shoes with broad, low
heels and flexible shank are im
portant for comfortable and use
ful feet. Develop a good mental
attitude and avoid worry.
Our President illustrated the
correct way to use many tools
which every housekeeper should
keep in hen tool kit including,
hammer, screw driver, automatic
push drill, files, pliers. She taught
us how to sharpen our knives and
scissors, also how to make a handy
knife rack. We received extension
circulars No’s 11-401 and 701, also
received 712 Farm Building Re
pairs for our husband’s use.
Our hostess served cakes and
coffee.
Prices Little Easier As
Liberal Receipts of
Livestock Sold
Last Monday’s receipts of live
stock consisted of about the usual
numbers of cattle and hogs. In ad
dition to these nearly 100 horses
and mules and around 50 sheep
were sold. Prices were a little
easier on the bulk of the day’s of
fering, although the really good
kinds were fully steady with a
week ago. The demand remains
good and there was a ready outlet
for all the stock offered.
An extreme top of $12.00 was
paid for steer calves. Bulk of this
class cashed mostly from $11.00 to
$11.76.
Yearlings were scarce and the
good kind were fully steady. Those
of plainer quality were a little off
in price compared with a week ago. j
The cow market was about steady
with last week. Good milch cows
continued to bring attractive prices.
The extreme top on butcher hogs
was $7.10 and $7.00 was the popu
lar price for the bulk of this class.
Sows reached $6.50. Stock pigs
brought from $8.00 to $9.00.
The sheep receipts consisted
ft .... t
chiefly of bred ewes.
The next regular auction will be j
held Monday, March 3.
