Stewart has sug- gested that Bi marck purchase gift to be presented to Shepard, who is captain and end of the Nodak eleven this year, immedi- ately before the big game. Goddard said to- day that Bismarck is to honor but in view so far from Grand Forks and because of the sea- son of the year, it is doubtful if many Bismarck men can get away for the game. “There is no qi that we will gift for »” Goddard said. “Grafton honored Mike Ges- ton last year but Grafton is much closer to the University than is Bis- Marck. There will be some men and alumni going to the game, however, and we may delegate some of these people to represent Bismarck in pre- senting the gift.” Bhepare is a senior at the Univer- sity this year and is playing his third hod with the ‘ve-sity.
