BEMIDJI GIANTS SHOW THAT TOUR HELPED THEM Game With Local Team Satur- day Shows What May Be Expected This Week [ In what proved to be a fine prac- tice game for both teams, the Bemidji Giants, former Company K basket- ball team, defeated a local team 45 to 30 at the new armory Saturday night. A pick-up team consented to play the Giants, after the game with the Crookston city team had been cancelled on account of the Crook- ston team’s condition as the result last Thursday night. Those present, however, were fully taware of the fact that the Bemidji Giants now possess a strong organizu- tion, improved greatly by the tour just completed. The Giants allowed the other boys to keep within a fair distance of their score but outside of that found no difficulty in scoring with ease. The pick-up team, how- ever, also put up a good game, show- ing good team work and floor work. Both teams scored on several long, clean shots. The close-in shots made by the pick-up team were largely the result of the Giants willingly allow- ing their opponents to score. In all it was a good practice game for both teams. The Giants have two hard games ahead this week, the first with Thief River Falls Wednesday night and the second with Crookston, the latter art of the week. These two games the Bemidji floor, according to the manager. Bemidji has met both teams before this season, but since those games the team has easily im- proved 100 per cent and it is expect- ed that both games this week will be exceptionally close.

He will assume the name of Pope Piux XI. The smoke signal from the vatican thiy morning was White and shortly afterward it was announced tha‘ Achilleo Cardinal Ratti, an Italian, had been elected to succeed Benedict XV. When the scrutiny of ballots in the Sistine Chapel this morning showed the necessary majority of two-thirds had been received by Car- dinal Ratti, the secretary of the con- clave and yae minister of the con- clave were admitted. The cardinal deacon accompanied by the heads of the other orders of cardinals present- ed themselves to Ratti and usked if he accepted the election. Receiving an authoritative reply the white smoke told waiting throngs outside the ~atican that the successor tu Benedict XV thad been chosen. The canopies of all the other car- dinals seated about the Sistine Chapel fell to the floor, only the canopy of Ratti remaining upright. Ratti's election was not a sur- prise, ‘altYiough he was one of the newest cardinals, having been created in June, 1921, by Pope Bene- dict. He was then asked what name he would take as pope and replied. “‘Pope Pius XL” The secretary of the conclaye and the priest then proceed- ed with the robing of the newly-elect- ed pope. One of the three white robes, which had been prepared for Shese ceremonies was put on Ratti and the secretary of the conclave knelt and handed to him the white cap, which designated him the su- preme pontiff. Thus attired the new pope returncd to the chapel. The first Thomage was paid to the new pope by the cardinals in order. Cardinal Gasparri, who had retain- ed temporary authority, was then re- quired to approach the throne and give to Pope Pius XI the ring of St Peter, which later will be returned to the prefect of ceremonies to have Ratti’s name engraved on it. The cardinals then returned to their cells to await the formal an- nouncement to the public of the elec- tion. The head of the cardinals dea- con appeared before the cager throng outside the vatican, crowding for- ward to receive the first public papel and announced to the thousands swarming the Piazza Di San Pietro, the fact that the new pope had been elected. He gave Ratti's name as when the new pope was cardinal. Fol- lowing this announcement there was further ceremonies to be gone thru in the Sistine Chapel. The corona- tion of Pope Pius XI will constitute the last and most magnificent cere- mony af all those attending the death of the pontiff and the election of his successor.
