THIS 18 THE SPECIAL OFFER MADE TO YoU The . Bismarck Tribune St. Mary's Eleven Out to Gain Revenge for Late Defeat by Lions To do the trick that Bismarck high school was unable to turn and that) they themselves couldn't do in one} game so far will be the ambition of; when they oppose Linton high school's Lions in their Homecoming game| here Friday afternoon on Hughes Field. And they'll have a job on their hands in attempting that feat, for the Lions come here with one of the outstanding records of the season among Class B high schools of the state. Lions Have Good Record 1 Thus far Linton has lost three | games and won one while tieing one, but that doesn’t tell the story. The tie game, they squeezed out of a hard-fighting, bigger Bismarck high school eleven in the first contest of the year for both elevens. The vic- tory they took away from the Saints themselves in a fast game at Linton three weeks ago. And the two de- feats they gave up were to Mandan’s powerful Braves and Jamestown’s high ranking Bluejays, two of the top notch major school clubs of the state. Determined to bring his team through its Homecoming fray on the long end of the score, though dope- sters may pick it the other way around, Coach Duane Neuenschwan- der of the Saints has been putting his squad through daily hard workouts this week. No injuries have appeared among his men since their close upset at the hands of Turtle Lake here last Friday, when the failure to make the point after touchdown meant the dif- ference between victory and defeat. Fundamentals were being stressed in the first two practice periods this week, with the passing attack that has accounted for several of the Saints’ touchdowns in games thus far due to come in for its share of polish- ing on Wednesday and Thursday.

(Associated Press Photo) King Uses Novel Training Methods Gopher End Practices Catching Red-Hot Rivets During Summer Work Minneapolis, Oct. 21.—Ray King, Tangy Minnesota end with an un- common knack of catching has a new and reasonably effective method of sharpening his pass-catch- ing abilities. It consists of practising with a red-hot rivet instead of a foot- ball. After a few weeks of catching rivets tossed in your direction with more speed than accuracy, catching any- thing as large and harmless as a foot- ball is comparatively easy, according to King, who considers himself an au- thority on the subject after a vacation spent in a rivet crew in the shipyards of his native Duluth, Minnesota, On Rivet Crew King’s job, in keeping with that of his football assignments, was that of @ pass receiver. Armed with a small can, he caught the red-hot rivets as they were thrown his way, picked them out of the can with tongs and thrust them into the rivet holes. “It wasn’t hard after you got the knack of it,” he admits now, “but you couldn't afford to miss many passes. You just had to catch the rivet or else—” Whether significant or not, King has not missed many of the passes tossed his way during Minnesota's three games thus far this season. In the opening game against the Univer- sity of Washington at Seattle, he leaped high over the end zone be- tween two Washington players to catch the touchdown pass that gave the Gophers their 14-7 margin of vic- tory over the Huskers, King is playing his second season at right end for Minnesota, getting the starting assignment in the first game of his sophomore year and holding down the position since that time. TORRANCE TO FIGHT New York, Oct. 21.—(7}—Jack Tor- rance, famous shotputter, is expected to fight professionally under the di- rection of Mike Jacobs as soon as he trains down from 320 to 260 pounds. ‘Saints Tackle Linton in Homecoming AST - WEST AFFAIR (Tilt Friday; Demons Trek to Minot']0 BE RENEWED BY Magicians, Homecoming Hosts, Seek Retention of ‘Little Brown Jug’ Parked on the sidelines when Bis- marck high school's Demons, more confident now after their 13 to 6 vic- tory over Williston last week, tangle with Glenn Jarrett’s Minot high Magicians at Minot Saturday night will be the Little Brown Jug—the victory token the two elevens battled over for the first time here last year. Last fall it was the Magicians who came to Bismarck to battle the Demons in their first annual Home- coming game for the right to take home the symbol of victory donated last year by the Bismarck Junior As- sociation of Commerce. The game ended in a 7 to 6 victory for the visiting club after 48 minutes of hard football that saw neither eleven sure of triumph until the final gun sounded. And the jug went home to Minot with the 1935 unofficial state high school champions. Battle Over Jug Again This fall Jarrett’s powerful eleven; victors in six straight contests by goodly margins, will play the part of Homecoming hosts, with Hanan’s Bis- marck Demons invading in an at- tempt to bring the Little Brown Jug back to its place of origination. To date Jarrett's prep powerhouse has rolled up a total of 276 points to its opponent's none, scoring decisive victories over Minot Model high, Mohall, Harvey, Devils Lake and Grafton, and beating Fargo in a hard- fought game 13 to 0. At present the Magicians rank with Valley City’s high scoring Hi-Liners as the two un- defeated major contenders for the mythical state prep crown. Rest Prescribed Rest was prescribed for Hanna's men, somewhat battered after the Williston game, as he cancelled prac- tice periods on Monday and Tuesday and planned heavy sessions for the remainder of the week. Only Asa Dawson, whose chronically bad knee received additional injury last Sat- urday, was regarded as seriously in- jured, however. Defensive play will come in for the major share of the work during the remaining days in an attempt to build up a defense that will stop the high scoring ofthe Magicians as far as the Demons are concerned, Tackling, which showed marked improvement passes, in the contest with the Coyotes, will be worked over some more, and some time will be spent on polishing the Demon running attack.
