JUNIOR RED CROSS ACTIVE IN EUROPE ~ Garden seeds for Polish orphans, milk for anaemic Greek bables, car- penters’ tools for Czecho-Slovakian cripples—these are only a few of the - gifts that young Americans are send- ing to the war-crushed chfldren of the Old World. Through the Junfor Red Cross the ‘boys and. girls of.the -United States are giving a fresh start in life to little war orphans scattered all over Europe, They have set up orphans’ homes in France, school colonies in Belgium and Montenegro, and day schools in Al- . bania. They are sending dozens of young Syriens, Montenegrins, and Albanians to American colleges in Constantinople and Beirut, and maintaining more than aa hundred orphans of French soldiers .at colleges and trade schools. In or- plianages and farm schools up and down the peninSula of Italy there are “nearly 500 wards of American Juniors. Last winter a thousand French chil- -dren from the inadequate shelters of . the devasted regions were scnt by the unior Red Cross to spend the cold onths in warmer parts of France. ., A\ the same flme five thousand little . Bel}jans-were having a hot lunch every " «day 't Junior Red Cross school can- teens. American school children have al- ready raised something Jlike a million dollars for these enterprises, and they are-still -hard at-work. In China, through campaigns of ed- ucation, the Junior Rea Cross is help- 1ng to combat widely prevalent blind- ness and cholera. - RED-CROSS RELIEF IN CENTRAL EUROPE But for timely asslsmnce of the American Red Cross during _the last year, a large proportion of the 20.009,- * 000 population of the Balkan States might have stiarved or. perished from disease or expesure. ~Six million dol- fars worth of food, clothing and-medi- . cal supplies linve been sent to the Bal- | ) kaps—Roumania, Bulgaria, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia anid Greece —since the beginning of-Red Cross re- fief operations in Central Europe, avhile millions of dullars worth of food alone has been sent to the needy in these states. “The money expended by the Red Cross in this stricken portion of Eu- Tope has been used to set up hospitals, orphanages. dispensaries, mobile medl- . cal units and to help in the general re- construction of devastated areas. Amer- fican tors and other farming imple-’ ave been sent to the agricnl- reglons where ald has been gjv- % e7/in plowing the land. ‘By the last of this year probably { /nll American Red Cross agencies ad- ! ministering relief in Central Europe will have withdrawn. By that time, it ' is believed, the people will have ap- proached a normal state of living and will be able through their own agencles which the Red Cross has helped set @p to provide for themselves.

The team was coach- ed by George Myrum, who played quarter-back and acted as their toach. Myrum was easily one of theteam, most elusive players ever seen on a scholastic eleven. Bemidj, with their well-balanced team, was classed as one of the best scholastic teams in the state. They won the undisputed championship of Northwestern Minnesota for the sec- ond consecutive time. The game with Montevideo was played under two, big handicaps. The Bemidji eleven was forced to go without practice out of doors for two weeks prior to the important game with Montevideo on' account of an fce and snow covered | gridiron and finally on account of be- ing misinformed on the condtion of; the field.
