(By Her- bert Wialker, en route’ with Governor Cox.)—Senator Harding hap present- ed no substitute for the league of na- tions hetause “‘his.only alternative is to return to the international normal condition of 1914, with autocratic monarchy, sudden ultimatum and secret diplomacy,” Governor Cox said here today in his first speech in Mis- souri against Harding’s statement in connection with the league. Cox declared that the candidate would not decline to suggest that the mothers of America return to pre- war international relations. “The reason Harding has-no substitute for the league of nations is because ev-| erything else has been ‘tried and; failed,” Cox continued. “The spirits| of ten million who fought and died, many millions who must hobble thru; have up-turned sleeves and thousands of widows and children who have been starved and made homeless, all these have not the brains of states- men to act in such a critical hour. WEATHER CONDITIONS IN BIG AERIAL CONTEST Pigeons F'rv:;m Arcadia, Louisi- ana, Finish First in Rexall Drug Contest [ A telegram received yesterday by by Earle A. Barker, of the Barker Drug and Jewelry store, local re- failers of Rexall products, states that the weather conditions have delayed several pigeons in the big aerial race to St. Louis. The birds from Be- .midji have not trapped in as yet, says the dispatch. In fact one of the birds never left the city. It was found the fore part of the week seri- ously injured. It was brought to the Barker store where it soon died. It is believed that someone hit the pigeon in the back with a sling-shot. Nothing has been heard from the other bird. l The message says that records are t being broken in spite of the weather. The birds from Arcadia, Louisiana, finished first in the race with a 500- mile flight. Nowta, Okla., has the | distinction of having dispatched the Iwinners of second place, with a 400- | mile flight.

(By United Press) Ashland, Ky., Sept 29. (By Ray- mond Clapper.)—*“The ship of state must sail with a skilled crew as well as a captain and it's sailing orders must originate in the United States,” Senator Warren G. Harding declared in a speech here today. Harding said the government must express the will of the people, not the will of the chief executive. : Today’'s speech was the last sched- uled for this trip. Harding spoke to autdiences that packed two of Wheel- ing’s largest halls last night. His reception in West Virginia outstrip- ped anything thus far in the cam- patgn, according to members of his party. “When I am elected there is going to, be that regard and respect for congress which the constitution con- templates and congress must respect the rights and opinions of execu- tives,” Harding said in his speech here. 5 “But 1 mean td do more than co- .ordinate and co-operate with con- gress. ‘1 am going to consult and confer with men and women of Am- erica. 1 would rather have the sup- iport of the undercurrent of Amer- ican thought and confidence than that of the greatest propoganda ever inaugurated. . “I think a president will be safe who takes the people into his confi- .dence. I believe-most-heanrtily in the: chief executive .counselling and ad- vising with men and women who' are conspicuous in American leadership.

Gordon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Gordon, were held Tuesday afternoon at 2 ‘o’clock at the Synod Lutheran church —Rev. Sorenson officiating.

He was taken to the army hospital at Save- nay, rance, where he died shortly after from the effects of his wounds. Burial was made in France and only recently were the remains disinterred and prepared for shipment to Shev- lin. He was highly esteemed by all who knew him, and when his name appeared in the casualty list, it was a shock to the entire community. In connection with the. services Tuesday afternoon the following friends and service men acted as pall bearers: Alf Rain, Chester Berfield, Lloyd Foster, Selmer Johnson, Oscar Julin, John Hofl. Another group of service men acted as firing squad in final tribute at the grave. Interment was made at the Mous! Efimetery.

HARDING CAR JUHPS TRACK; | 9 MIE CLIP (By United Press) Millwood, West Virginia, Sept. 29. {By Raymond Clapper.) — Senator Harding and his party had a narrow escapt today when his private car jumped the track near Wheeling, W. Va., and ran over ties across narrow tres'le before the tratn could be stop- | ped. No one was injured. The front trucks of Harding’'s car were smash- ed. The party was transferred to other cars and the train went on, leaving the private car standing on the track. The train was travelling at a speed ! hig gide of forty miles an lgour. when the front trucks on Harding’s car broke, apparently while crossing a switch. Railroad employees said the switch was not open. the “Ideal” jumped the track and dragged along the road bed. The train ran 100 feet before it could be stopped.

They have been shown how imperative it is to follow the ball, to be able to fall on the oval, and they have been taught the var- fous forms of blocking, including the pivot. They have been shown how to.carry the ball and the absolute necessity -of carrying it in the out side arm when driving off the tack- les of running the ends. The stiff- arm and the fade away sidestep also have been drilled into the backs, while the linemen have been {m- préssed with the importance of mix- ing in every play. - Details of this nature are not con- sidered by the average football fan. The great majority are eager to see into consideration the time and work it lakes on the part of the coaches o make spectacular individual feats possible. On every play in which a ball carrier is expected to get loose, {each of the other ten men has a cer- tain duty to perform. If any of these Iplayers slight their particular work, ‘the play is a failure. reason why eyery; conchi tries to get eleven men in every play. Scrimmage went thru in fine style iyesterdny in spite of the chilly weather. The men were given turns on the offensive side of the line and the plays which will form the basis {ot the Bemidji attack in the East Grand Forks game on Suturday were given a good try out. The regulars had little trouble breaking thru off- {tackle and getting loose around the ends. The practice was also livened up with drill in blocking and tackle. With “Dick” Cota, leading candi- date for the right halfback position, on the sidelines. due to an injury to and Armond Tharaldson nursing a sprained ankle the first misfortunes of the season struck the Bemidji camp. Tharaldson sprained his ankle in tackling practice last Friday and Cota strained ligaments in his side while working at the roundhouse last Saturday. Cota’s in- jury, which later on in the seasom would result in gloom on the campus, is being accepted as unfortunate but not serious to the team'’s chances. He will hardly be needed in the East Grand Forks game, and there are plently of understudies to fill the position. Riggs, Hulett and Woock were given a chance at the position jn last night's scrimmage. Riggs and Elliott were also used at quarter a while, for there is a possibility of Bemidji taking the fleld Saturday mi- nus Higbe, who is nursing a bad boil: on his neck. With only Captain Brooks and Art Olson, former Black- duck star in fit condition at this stage of the game, the coaches are working overtime to develop capable substi- tutés for the opening game.
