, VOLUME 11. 149 BIG BEMIDG TRIMS GRAND RAPIDS Itasce County Football Chasers @iven First Defeat At Hands Of A Bemidji Eleven PASSES USED TO ADVANTAGE Locals Goal Never In Danger—Final Score 25 to 0 Brainerd Next On Schedule Another step toward the champion- ship of Northern Minnesota was tak- n by the football eleven of the Bem- idji Athletic club when it won from the Grand Rapids city team by a 25 to 0 score yesterday afternoon. The outcome of the contest was gratifying to Bemidji pigskin enthu- siasts who for many years have watched the elevens of this city beat- en by the Itasca county men or leld | to a scoreless tie. Yesterday's victory marked the fourth time in the history of Grand Rapids-Bemidji football that the lo- cals received the long end of the score, the school winning in 1908, 1910 and 1912. Forward passes, perfectly execut- ed, were the principal causes for the| victory. The Bemidji boys were out to win and during the first quarter ap- peared to be feeling their opponents out. Nothing sensational was pulled off by Quarterback McDonald in this period and the teams appeared to be evenly matched. In the second period it was a dif- ferent story. Bemidji worked the pigskin up to the thirty yard line where a clever pass from Jacobson to Remsen Bell resulted in the first seore of the game. It was-a snappy play and Bell’s catch was a difficult one. McDonald kicked goal. Bemidji 7. Grand Rapids 0. ¢ Grand Rapids depended to a large{ extent on forward passes, several of which worked. Bemidji players were soon able to break up the plays and on several occasions secured the ball for long gains. Bemidji began the second half with a rush and was soon able to send the ball over for a second touch- down, Brandon carrying the ball over on a pass from Jacobson. Me- Donald missed goal. Bemidji 13; irand Rapids 0. Two more touchdowns were secur- ed by Bemidji, Jacobson and Willey being sent over the line. McDonald and Bell missed the goals. Bemidji 25: Grand Rapids 0. In attempting to block a forward pass Centre Lundberg of the Bemidji eleven had his shoulder thrown out of joint. A doctor who was witness- ing the contest placed the back in position. shoulder To pick the stars of yesterday’s| contest would be near impossible. Brandon, Bell, Jacobson and Willey carried the ball many yards and their tackles were sure. Bemidji's line again showed up well and few gains were made through it. For Grand Rapids Meyers, Erskine, Lofberg and Doran played strong football. Brainerd is scheduled for Sunday. next WILL TRAVEL IN STYLE. Beaudette Citizens to Come to Con- vention in Private Car.

SEVERAL BIG SURPRISES {Minnesota’s Defeat By Nebraska Wisconsin Tie With Purdue and Michigans Trimming Unexpected .GOPHERS LOSE 7 TO 0 SCORE Minnesota’s defeat at the hands of lthe heavy Nebraska eleven, Wiscon- sin’s 7 to 7 tie with Purdue and Michigan’s trimming handed them by the Aggies were a few of the {many surprises of Saturday foot- balls. Nebraska sent the Minnesota team back to Minneapolis with a 7 to 0 defeat, the result of three perfectly executed forward passes by Nebras- ka players, beginning on the Minne- overturning of football caleulations, as it was a bold Cornhusker mot't}ax;1 before the game who could . predict any thing better than tie score, and the few small wagers made were generally on the Minnesota side. The scoring came toward the end’ of the third quarter. Nebraska had worked the ball into the visiting team’s territory and Quarterback Towle dropped back for a field goal from the 30-yard line, but missed. Tollefson punted back and the teams lined up on Minnesota’s 40-yard line. Then came the series of forward pass- es which brought Nebraska victory Beck was standing almost on the line when he received the ball and went over for the touchdown. Towle ikicked goal. In weight and speed the teams were evenly matched. Howard slight- ly ex celled Tollefson in the kicking game and in the open style of play the Cornhuskers showed to advantage On straight plunges through center and tackle, Minnesota was superior, twice being in striking distance after a march down the field, but at the crucial moment Nebraska held. Gophers Are Checked The first quarter was clearly Min- nesota’s. The men from the north started with a vim and determination Ithat fairly took Nebraska off their feet, but it ended after the first five minutes’ play and from then on, the ball was two-thirds of the time 1n Minnesota territory, save at the close of the game, when the Minnesota lose it on a fumble. The game was cleanly played and free from injuries, the Cornhuskers going through without a change in the orginal lineup, while Minnesota was called on to supply only two sub- stitutes. On an exchange of punts Minneso- ta got the ball in centerfield. On 2 punt formation, Robertson threw the ball over Tollefson’s head and it was Nebraska’s ball on Minnesota’s 25 yard line. Four forward passes were tried and three worked, Beck going over for the touchdown. Towled kicked goal. The Minnesota team could not gain after that and the quarter end- ed with the ball in Nebraska’s pos- session in the center of the field. Score: Nebraska, 7; Minnesota, 0. Nebraska punted at the start of the fourth quarter, and Minnesota, with Shaughnessy, Tollefsen and Me- Almon bucking the line, carried the ball to the center of the field where they were forced to punt.

On a hospital ticket issued by the Samaritan hospital of Bemid- ji was found the name of Clari Bell and was signed by H. H. Conenly and B. H. Corluly. The signature- was poorly written but the above names are the closest that could be made out, H : On an employment ticket :issued by the Zeinth Employment Company of Duluth Minnesota, was the name of Jamiso. The holder of the ticket was employed as boat loader for Al- ger Smith .and Company at Knift River. « ; The dead man was heavily clothed and wore two pair of overalls. The underclothing was practically new and indications lead authorities to believe that he had recently came to Bemidji and purchased a new out- fit. No marks of violence were found upon the body although . the nose and cheek of the corpse was badly bruised. The body was found with the face upright but dirt on the knees indicated that he had crawled under the platform on his hands and knees. The face was covered with sand. It is believed the sand dropped through the cracks of the- platform onto the body. Just when death took place and what the cause was has not been as-. certained as yet but as decomposi- tion had set’ in it is probable that body had lain * under the platform: since Friday.
