However, they found a valley filled with logs and successfully multiplied. This valley is located between France and Spain, and is called Adder Valley. The people who once dwelt there are Basques. There was frequent political unrest in the Adder Valley, be- cause both France and Spain would oftentimes try to ally with the Basques. Sometimes other European nations would also try to gain Basque as an ally. A campaign was started by Germany's sending their fam- ous leader Reinhard Nichlsohn. He was to debate Italy's Gino Kenidici for the support of Basque. Russia entered the act by sending the brothers, Ural and Pewey Longechev. Ural was so named because of his living in the Ural Mountains. They called the second brother Pewey in reac- Twenty campus beauties express hopeful smiles Lovsness.

John Brenden and Adrian Anderson went to school together at Alexandria and have been playing football togther since they were in the sixth grade. After graduation they went their separate ways—John to Concordia and Adrian to Utah State. Anderson, at 6-foot 3 and 234 pounds, is the biggest starting lineman. He transferred from Utah State in his sophomore year and sat out a year of football so as to be eligible for the '59 season. The two-year letterman is majoring in business education and minoring in psychology. His plans following graduation are in- definite at present. The big tackle, when asked about the Concordia title chance and his biggest thrill in college sports, responded with the same reply for each, "It depends on what happens at Duluth Saturday night."
