If the Atlantic coast rum-running fleet is not routed and dispersed it will not be the fault of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Lincoln Clark Andrews, in charge of the treasury’s activities in enforcing prohibition. Under his direction the Naval and aerial resources of the Coast Guard of the New York area are being used to effect a blockade against the liquor smugglers. 

More than 60 Coast Guard boats, manned by 400 men and fully armed, are patrolling the sea and are assisted by 13 seaplanes, which are mapping and photographing the position of the carriers of contraband and scouting for shore boats. Every vessel of the rum fleet is closely watched by one or more Coast Guard boats so that it is virtually impossible for shore boats to obtain and land any liquor.

Nine-month-old Tiffany Carr of Cowley has already begun working toward her 15 minutes of fame. Tiffany, the daughter of Chad and Melissa Carr, has qualified to compete in the New Star Discovery National Baby Pageant.

Melissa reported last week that Tiffany first competed in March in the regional competition in Watertown, S.D. Tiffany captured the Angel Face category at regionals in the 0-7-month division and was first runner-up in the overall beauty contest. At the tri-state pageant May 4-6 in Minneapolis, Minn., Tiffany again won the Angel Face contest and qualified for the national pageant as a Judge’s Choice. 

The national pageant will be in Chicago Aug. 4-6. If she is able to compete, Tiffany will be vying for a $25,000 savings bond.

An iPad in every student’s hand was the subject of a presentation made to the Big Horn County School District No. 2 Board of Trustees on Monday night by Lovell High School Principal Scott O’Tremba. He said the high school is only 50 iPads away from that goal, adding that the electronic device has become an essential “tool” for the daily schoolwork of each and every student.
