BEMIDJI ATHLETES MEET GRAND RAPIDS 01d Time Rivals of Gridiron Will Mix At Itasca County Seat Tomor- row Afternoon FIRST CONTEST OF 1914 SEASON Game Will Be Initial One For Newly Organized Athletic Association Of This City With plenty of grit, weight, de- termination and speed the football eleven representing the Bemidjl Ath- letic association will = journey to Grand Rapids tomorrow where the city team of that city will be played. For many years the football teams of Grand Rapids and Bemidji have been rivals of the gridiron, and while the high school boys have on several occasions been able to bring home victory the best a city team has ever obtained has been a tie. There is more than onc reason why the Bemidji boys will work their heads off in an effort to win in the game tomorrow afternoon. First every football eleven wants to win Second, the game tomorrow will be the first contest in which the Be- midjl Athletic association has ever been represented, and a victory as & starter will be encouraging for fu- ture events. The players who comprisc the Be- midji team are the kind that will bring honor to any city that they might represent. Each one is’an ath- lete, and several have records of which they may well feel' proud. Carl Jacobson, coach and full back, is a Carlton college graduate, and while a student there won many hon- ors because of his rare ability on the gridiron, diamond and basketball floor. Ralph Lycan, to whose efforts |- the information of the athletic club was largely due, will be at a tackle position in the game tomorrow, Ly- .can i8 a big. fellow. and.plguest fulls back on the championship high school eleven in 1908, the year that Grand Rapids met its first defeat at the hands of a Bemidji team, the score being 12 to 6. He later distin- guished himself on the University freshman squad. William McDonald, quarter is a former high school star, and was captain of the 1911 cham- plonship aggregation. Brandon, end, is considered one of the best ath- letes ever turned out of the Grand Rapids high school and tomorrow he will be pitted against many of his former team-mates Peck is an old time high school favorite. Brinkman was a mainstay on the Faribault school for the deaf team. The other members of the eleven have records on the gridiron, 4 The last practice before the game will be held at the central school grounds at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.

Lundgren carried a drunken "“Jack” on his shoulder for three blocks through the uptown streets this morning to the police station, while pedestrains gazed on in amazement. “He wouldn’t walk, 8o I had to carry him,” was the of- ficers’s answer to queries as to whe- ther he was the new patrol wagon. ‘The jack’s name is Samuel Thompson but is better known as “Coxy” and according to Sergeant Bursley has been on a drunk for weeks. He is now behind the bars in the city jail, where he will be given a chance to sober up before made to face Judge Crowell.

E. McDonald, E. A. Witting and Frank Arnold, who. represented the Women’s Study club_of Bemidji, re- turned yesterday from that eity. All three affirm the papers of the state In claiming the convention to be the largest and most interesting meeting éver held, and are loud in their praise of the manner in which the delegates were #reated, not only by the Brainerd club .members but by the citizens of the Crow Wing County seat. One hundred. and fifty-two dele- gates attended the Minnesota Federa- tion of Women’s clubs. at Brainerd, The program was full of interest from the first number to the close of the convention. Dr. Maria Sanford of the University of Minesota, was one of the principal speakers. Her subject was, “Women and Civics.” She show- ed the necessity of a clean city in forwarding the welfare of the girls. The key mote of the convention was extension of the club movement to rural districts. Mrs. Quinlan of Rochester, Minnesota, delivered an interesting speech, telling what was being done in the club movement in her locality in the rural districts. A well known Minnesota state suf- fragette club was denied admission into general federation of woman's clubs, since its object was wholly political.

McKusick, Stillwater; federation secretary, Mrs. E. H. Loyhed, Fari: bault; president First district, Mrs. G, J, Allen, Rochester;. president sec: i Mrs. B.
