It was a hard fought game throughout and the best team won. When the first half ended, the Go- pher supporters were firm in a belief that Minnesota would triumph in the second half as they had outplayed their rivals in the first half. Chicago braced amazingly in the second half though and managed to make a touchdown which spelled victory for the Stage forces. The touchdown came as a direct result of a long and accurately timed and well executed forward pass. Two Minnesotans were on the spot and might have interfered at least for a penalty, but failed to make the most .of their opportunity. The big gain .seemed to put the Minnesotans in the :air for a short time and was follow- ,ed by a ten-yard end run by the Ma- roons. This appeared to put the Minnesota - eleven even higher and the Maroons smashed and crashed «down the short remaining yards for :a touchdown,- finally registering through ‘an' end run when the Mi -nesota”secondary defense was pla) ing .for ‘a possible forward pass. It -was good football by the Maroons and the touchdown came without flaw or fluke of ‘any description. Gophers Seemed Off Form. Minnesota lacked-a lot of playing up to the finished form the home rooters had expected. Many things perhaps contributed to this, but the Gophers were clearly off form both in their offensive and defensive work. They did not approximate the finish or the driving power they ex- hibited in the Wisconsin game. The team played to the-full limit of its speed and power .but’the offensive work appeared to lack that vital spark necessary to make it go. The team lacked snap and the thrust and “punch its offense had shown in the previous games of the year. Most of the rooters incline to a be- et that this lack of dash and vigor is due to the short period -elapsing since the Wisconsin game. 3 % The team did not seemingly hav time to recover from the Wisconsin game and Chicago appeared to be trained to the minute.

OVER SUNDAY WIRES London, Nov. 25.—Rumors persist that not only Russia. and Austria are getting their fighting men in shape but that Germany has ordered the reservists of five army corps to re- join their regiments. The reservists number 130,000 men. The Austrian navy is on its way to Belgrade, the capital of Servia, Fighting has been resumed at Tchat- alja. Turkey argues that it still has 500,000 soldiers on which to draw while the Balkan states are near the end of their resources. The Balkans report that they yet have- 150,000 meh available to throw at the Tur- kish front. The prospect of a gen~ eral European was has excited dip- lomatic offices the world over. essary to point up for almost every antagonist on its schedule this year and the strain of sustaining speed and dash had evidently been too great for an -inexperienced team to carry. .The Minnesota boys were in the final’ analysis beaten and out- played, but they were in no sense outgamed. They fought -desparately: to stave off defeat, but were unsuc- cessful. Harvard Smashed Yale. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 25. Harvard smashed Yale Saturday. It was a rout, a disaster, a cataclysm. It takes memory of the oldest inhab- itant to recall when the Crimson’s score ran into double figures while keeping the Blue bianketed. That was done today. And if 20 for Har- vard to 0 for Yale means much to Cambridge, it is equally certain that it means more to New Haven. Already it is known that the en- tire system of play and the teaching thereof is to be radically revised down here where Old Man Football himself - was popularly supposed to maxke his habitat. And when the re- vision is complete it will be found that Yale has taken a leaf from Har- vard’s book and has reconstructed her organization on the model of her once despised rival. A Permanent coach will be installed and the time- honored Yale tradition of graduate coaching, changing each year, is to be abandoned. Arm Broken Twice. So Yale is going to try to come back along new ways. One thing the does not have to learn, and that is to neep heart. That, she always has had. 7Today she showed how much her sons have it still, when at the close of the game it became public that Bomeisler, the remarkable end, had played through the game with two bones in his left arm broken. One he snapped in the Princeton game last Saturday, the second went the same way today. But he played almost taroughout the game ‘without a whimper although most of the time the left arm hung nearly useless by his side. Harvard knew more football than Yale did and she knew better how to (Continued on last page). SO_O THE CUB i BEge i AntdH e b gfla‘ week. MOON FILES APPEAL C. 0.

SNOW PLEASES HUNTERS, The Yoot of snow which fell last night pleased many hurntérs who have not yet bagged -their limi game and it is pre deer will be shippéd into-Bemidji this week. The snow is heavy enough to make tracking easy but not enough to make walking diffi- cult. The absence of snow to date has protected the deer better than any game laws. Hunters predict that they will be more plentiful than ever next year. COLLINS’ BODY HERE.

Story Briefly last election by ‘five votes according All Royal Neighbors are requested’ no one was injured, but merchandise passenger did not reach Bemidji un- icted that many: the GROOMED FOR SPEAKER Henry Rines, P. H. McGarry, R. C. Dunn and H. H. Dunn, are Candidates, WARM SESSION 1§ = PROMISED The contest for the, speakership of the next Minnesota legislature is be- coming interesting. Henry, Rines of thirty-two house members;: but he will have strenuous opposition from former Speaker H. H. Dunn of Al- bert Lea, R. C. Dunn of Princeton and P. H. McGarry of Walker. The next house will be made up of 98 Republicans, 20 Democrats and one Socialist, one Prohibitionist and one Independent. Of this number, the Progressive Republicans, respon- sible for Rines’ candidacy, claim to have fifty members signed up and they figure on eight others as certain to vote for him. As sixty-one votes constitutes a majority, they feel cer- tain that they will secure the neces- sary number. The other faction, however, is not willing to admit all this. They de- clare that all it does is to place Rines squarely in the field as a can- didate. The two Dunns are both in favor of the election going to the floor of the house. This would undoubtedly please the Democrats. It is now pre- dicted that the Bourbon vote will line up solidly against Rines. Those who hope for a quiét session will undoubtedly be disappointed. It will be a stormy one and many pre- dict that it will pass into history as being the most turbulent in Minne- sota annals. H.. H. Dunn, the former speaker, will be a contender for the floor lead- ership on the Republican side. The long distance tariff bill is one of the measures he will champion, it is said. H. 0. Bjorge of Lake Park, father of the tonnage tax bill that Governor Johnson vetoed four years ago, will be back in the house, and it is said he will spring another similar meas- ure. Reapportionment will, of course, be one of the most important meas- ures considered. The chances for its passage are said to be good, as many of the senators have gubernatorial aspirations and will desire to “get in right” with Northern Minnesota. State politicians are already spec- ulating as to gubernatorial timber for two years hence. Rumors float ENOLGEY TO Tauc AND WHAT COum. WAS H13 HAR ® DAYS Santa Claus Is Calling “You to Shop Ealfly. KILLED BY AN OVERTURNED CAR Two Prominent $t. Paul Railroad Men Lose Lives In Sunday Automobile Accident. By United Press. St. Paul, Nov. 26—Howard James, director of purchases, and S. B. Plechner, purchasing agent, each of- ficials of the Great Northern rail- road, were killed Sunday afternoon in an automobile accident. The accident occurred directly in front of James J. Hill farm, “North Oaks.” The car was traveling over a filled in roadway composed mainly of ‘sand, and while trying to pass another car, the réar wheels lost their grip and the car plunged down a fifteen foot embankment, turning turtle. In the tonneau were Mrs. Plech- ner, Miss Helen James and Miss Mar- garet Mann but all of the ladies es- caped practically unhurt. The car turned over completely. The trag- edy recalls the death of Mrs. James four years ago in Athens, Greece. She was on a touring trip of the Med- iterranean countries. Both Mr. Plechner and Mr. James are known to Great Northern offi- cials in Bemidji.

Mackenzie was recently in nes, Iowa, in the interest of the Noftliern Minnesota Develop- :{ ment’ agociation; ot which Lo is sec- retary, and the Des Moines Register and Leader printed the following in- terview: “Claiming that states of the Mis- sissippi valley are losing financial benefits and good gitizens by the flow of settlers to the northwest and Canada, W. R. Mackenzie of Minne- apolis, immigration commissioner of the Northern Minnesota Development associatign, proposes the establigh- ment of & publicity bureau to tell of the rgsources of these state. “While in Des Moines Mr. Mac- kenzie told of the work of the organ- ization with which he is connected, and suggested that the work might be enlarged to include all of Minne- sota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa, which he believes have many inter- ests in common. “His bureau was organized three years ago and is supported by the business men of thirty-three coun- ties: The cost of maintenance of the bureau for the three yéars has been $5,000 a year, but definite results have been accomplished. Principal among them is the securing of a one mill tax for road use, which will give $3,000,000 available next year. “‘We have nothing to sell,’ said Mr. Mackenzie, ‘but we are trying to wake up the people of Minnesota to the fact that right in their own' state' are better resources than are to be found in Canada. We have ac- complished a great deal, and our work is gradually being extended. “‘lowa needs the same thing. This state has wonderful opportunities for any one who will take them. But the trouble is no one knows about them. Nothing is ever said about them. People right in the state do not . know what Iowa offers, and when it comes to talking of outside people coming in — Iowa might as well be surrounded by a stone wall. “‘Canada and the northwest is be- ing made what it is wholly by good publicity.
