Mattress Program To
Get Under Way Soon
The Linn county cotton mattress
program, under the sponsorshi'p of
the Extension service of Iowa State
college, the A.A.A. and the Surplus
marketing administration, will soon
be under way in Franklin township.
Ross Clark, Howard Neal and J. C.
Milholln will be in charge in this
township. Anyone interested is re-
quested to get in touch with one of
these three men.
The purpose of the cotton mat-
tress program is to enable rural
families to have good beds; to turn
the surplus cotton, which belongs
to the government, into better liv-
ing. When agriculture is helped in
one section of the country, it is l
helped in all sections. Any rural
family whose total net incense is
not more than $500 for any four
The Red Cross rooms in Mount
Vernon will be used for the making
of the mattresses after enough ap-
plications have been received. Ma-
terials for the mattresses are pro-
vided by the U. A. S. D. through the
Surplus Marketing administration.

Purple Splits Even
On Wisconsin Trip
Cornell's basketball team split
even in an invasion of Wisconsin
last week end, winning 36 to 32
from Beloit Saturday night after
losing badly to Lawrence, 45 to 27,
on Friday.
The tall Lawrence team jumped
into an early lead over the Purple,
ringing up its first ~ix shots without
a miss, and was never headed thru-
out the contest. Harvey led the at-
tack with 13 points, while Bob
Bailey, playing in his home town,
scored seven to take honors for
Cornell.
The Purple were ahead all the
way in the Beloit game, leading 21
to 15 at the half. Dwayne Howard
was high point man for Cornell,
with five field goals. Harman and
Bacon each scored ten points for
the Blue Devils. Twenty-three per-
sonal fouls committed by Cornell
could have reversed the result of
the game had Beloit been a little
more accurate with its free throws.
The Wisconsin team missed 16 char-
ity tosses.
The victory was Cornell's first of
the season, and leaves the school
until after the Christmas holidays
with a conference record of one
win and two losses.
