When that squad plays here, however, it is_ expected ihat a much closer game will be the result. Bemidji is hopélessly lost in the dis- trict championship race but neverthe- less the Yo¢al-boys have a number of good games ahead: and with regular practice should makethese contests worth while. Indications are that by {another year, Bemidji “will have a squad which, will be amorig the best in the district, since graduation only takes one or two players from the team this year. 4 The game at Park ‘Rapids has no bearing whatever on the district race, even though both teams have no. pos- sible chance to win thetitle. Confer- ence regulations demsnd that 3 nea- tral referee officiate ‘district games and for that reason the game wiil not count for Park Ragids nor against Bemidji. 4 1t is understood that Park Rapids has been waiting for a,chance to get even for the defeat Bemidji handed that school last fall in football and believed that this was an opportunity. | THE PIONEER WANT ADS i BRING RESULTS —— INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ° DISTRICT OF BEMIDJI, | tion was_called _to’order Tuesday, January 31, 1922, /at 7:30 o'clock P.
