GHURCHES OF THE CITY) ' determined to The “Big Bemidg” basketball team added another series of games to its long list of victories, last night, when the locals again took the St. Cloud team into “camp,” by a score of 16 to 9, after a hard-fought contest, in which there was much rough play and many fouls were called by the referee. The game Thursday even- ing resulted in favor of Bemidji, score 22 to 14, and the two games were indicative of the relative play- ing ability of each, Bemidji being faster and showing better team work. Last night’s game was a “‘mix-up” from the start, the visitors being “kick” manfully on everything, on general principals in the hope of gaining thereby, with the result that some bad feeling was en- gendered. Roy Lindsay acted as referee and umpire and he was kept very busy watching the players as well as the ball. His work was gen- erally satisfactory. Prior to last evening’s game, the captain of the St. Cloud team made the ridiculous protest of both games, on the grounds -that the local management did not send the St. C]oud feam transpertation for a “full team and a referee.” Asked as 1o whether the St. Cloud team was satisfied with the rulings of the referee, the captain of the - visiting team stated em- phaucally that hx; men had no com- BIG BEMIDG WON THE GAME FROM ST. CLOUD LAST EVE Locals Showed Their Superiority Over the "Granite Glty" Players by Winning Both Games of the Series.— Grand Rapids, Next Week, apparently the protest was a “‘kid” act, an excuse for defeats. The following was the line-up: “Big Bemidg”—Geil and Mark- ham, forwards; Brown, center; Peter- son and Gill, guards. St. Cloud—Swanson and Steven- son, forwards; Carew, center; Erick- son and Cassidy, guards. Bemidjijexcelled the visiting team in throwing baskets, the St. Cloud players being rather erratic in their play under the basket. For the home team, not a player “loafed,” although the game was fast and tiring. Brown, the big center, played the best game of his career in Bemidji, and his team- mates gave him splendid support. It is really disappointing that the management of the game is not given better support. The St. Cloud team was brought here at a big outlay, and the receipts did not balance the expenditures, for the two games. Bemidji has lost but one game this season, and that by a wrongful deci- sion of the referee, which was after- wards acknowledged by that official, the game going to the Superior Nor- mal, Bemidji winning a contest from that team. Two games were won from Deer River, two from Floodwood, two from Ada, one from Superior and two froi loud, no team in Min- MGARRY INTRODUGES THE CASS LAKE BILL Bill Locating Sixth Normal School at Bemiji Will Be Introduced Early Next Week. P. H. McGarry of Walker, repre- sentative in the state legislature from the Fifty-second district, has intro- duced the Cass Lake Normal school bill in the house, he having intro- duced the bill Thursday. The bill is known as H. F. No. 19, and provides for the establish- ment of a sixth normal school, to be located at the village of Cass Lake Normal School. The bill also provides that the village of Cass Lake shall provide and donate a site not less than twenty acres. The bill was referred to the EAGLEPENCIL C The “Eagle Russet” Fountain Pen The Best Dollar Fountain Pen on the Market The Pen is always ready for: use and may be ca.rned in any *position without danger of leakage Ask for Russet Fountain Pen's‘ at The Pioneer Office Lake, to be known as the Cassj normal school committee, when that committee is appointed, the first of next week. There is only one thing wrong with Mr. McGarry’s bill and that is very wrong—the location of the proposed school, which should be changed to Bemidji the metropolis of northern Minnesota, This grev- ious defect will be remedied the first of next week, however, when Representative Opsahl will iatro- duce a bill locating the school at Bemidji. Fifty Dollars, Reward. Fifty dollars reward will be given to the party who will furnish in- formation that will lead to the con- viction of the party or parties who killed a Chester white brood sow at my farm on the night of January 6, Money is on deposit at the Lumber- mens National Bank. —Wes Wright.
