The game was one of the most stub- born tussles witnessed this season by high school supporters. Teams Were Even The teams were more than evenly balanced. The boys were apparently about the same size and weight. Dur- ing the entire game, the Hubbard never in striking distance of Bemidji’s goal, the locals having things more or less their pwn way. The greater portion of the time the oval was chased back and forth in the Park Rapids territory, with the visitors playing. a defensive game. Park Rapids was able to make its distance but once during the entire game and that was on a forward pass, which was one of the two that they completed during the game. The first half ended a scoreless tie, although Bemidji had several beautiful oppor- tunities, losing the ball on poorly di- rected plays or fumbles. Rhea Tears Off 65 Yards Shortly after the start of the third quarter Park Rapids attempted a for- ward pass which Rhea interecepted on Bemidji’s 86-yard line-and sprinted 65 yards for the only score of the game. A ctty piece of work on the 1 Sullivan made it pos- sible for Rhea to have a clear field, when the former spilled a would-be Biney missed the attempt at goal. Shortly after the next kickoff Park Rapids was forced to punt. Bemidji started a steady march down the field from the Bqn|1(lji 40-yard line and never once failed making its distance. With the ball on Park Rapids’ 2-yard line Davis smashed through right tackel, but fumbled the ball behind the goal line, Park Rapids recovering the bali for a touchback, the ball being put in play on their 20- yard line. The. third quarter ended soon after. In three plays Park Rapids was able to make but four yards and was again forced'to punt. Bemidji started a steady march down the field with- out being btonnul until they reached the visitors’ 5-yard line, and the.ball went to Coach McCallum’s boys. Park Rapids at once punted out of danger.

VISITING ORCHESTRA TO PLAY HERE NOVEBER 1 The Loui: a Red Devils, a trav- eling orch which is now touring the Northwest, will play for a dance to be stzged at the new armory on Tuesday evening, November 1. oA TOMORROW IS LAST DAY OF THE SECOND PERIOD; CLUB MEMBERS URGED TO MAKE MOST OF TIME LEFT Locked Ballot Box Will Be Placed in* Northern National Bank and Club Members in Campaign Ar;e to Poll Their Credits There After Tuesday. Tomorrow is the lastsday of the second period. ~-And it is the last op- portunity you will have to get the larger number of credits for sub- scriptiond. A little effort.today will mean many subscriptions for you if used in the right direction. Many of your friends are waiting to see what you are going to do and what your chances of winning are going to be, and now that you stand a good chance of winning, they wiil be will- ing io help you. The leadership in this race right now is worth big money to you—it is important. As the campaign grows older the competition grows keener and-as competition becomes keener it is important that you hold your own against all comers, to be assured of dne of the’grand capital prizes. Make the most of every rémaining hour of this second period. There is still time for you to secure several additional subscriptions before thé second period closes. By going after one and two year subscriptions you can easily secure enough subscrip- tions to give you sufficient credits to lez,d the entire campagign.— Get every subseription you can. Pay no attention to what others may or may not be doing. What they do won't win for you. - Make your final cffort in this second period as large as_possible, and bring or send in your subscriptions to The Pioneer not later than 9 nnln k Tuesday night | It is a strange coincidence—some- thing unusual in affairs of this kind, but several of the leading club mem- bers benefited so equally in the num- ber of credits received that without hair line figuring it is almost impos- sible to determine who the real lead- er is. The competition, therefore, so far as the relative standing of some of the club members are concerned, is ptactically where it was when the campaign started. Hence, the strug- gle for supremacy will be fought out during the remaining few days of the campaign. It depends almost entire- ly upon the results obtained between now and Saturday, October 29th, as to who the ultimate winners will be. This is the last time that the cam- paign manager will accept subscrip- tions or credits from any of the club members, and after Tuesday night club members will have to deposit their subscriptions and money in the ballot box at the Northern National bank, where it will be placed Wed- nesday merning by the gentlemen who have kindly consented to act as judges, and the key retained by one of them until the last night, when the judges will open the ballot box in full view of the club members and their friends, and will then make out the credits, do the final counting and make the awards. This means that after Tuesday The Pioneer will have no more to do with the handling of the campaign than any outsider, and this (Continued on Page §iv ) P These six is done to in-‘ NORWEGIAN LUTHERAN CIRCUIT T0 MEET HERE LGCAL H!GHWAY Instructive Program- Arranged| for Three-Day Meeting Beginning Tomorrow The Bemidji circuit of the Nor- PREUS lNVAl)ES DAKOTA T0 FIGHT NONPARTISANS Executive Head of Minnesota to Tour Worth Dakota for Four Days CONSTRUCTION WORK ABVANCES (13y United P'réss) wegian Lutheran church of Ame | 3 K SR meets October 25, 26 and in the | Gargo, N.
