The basketball season, as far as
the Bemidji basketball team is con-
cerned, has closed, and the big
Bemidg" squad can view with par
donable pride the excellent record
made by that organization.
That Bemidji had a strong (if not
the very strongest) basketball five
in the north half of the state, was
shown by the easy manner in
which the team disposed of all
corners from Minnesota towns, with
the exception of the Duluth Y. M.
C. A. team. The one game played
with the latter team resulted in a
tie (17 to I'D despite the claim
made by the supporters of the
Duluth bunch" that they won.
The fact that Duluth refused to play
after tie had been declared, and
would not play the succeeding night,
is rather strong evidence that the
gentlemen from the head of the
lakes had strong respect for the
proves of Bemidji. 1t has been
impossible to arrange another game
with Duluth, and the respective
contentious of the two teams must
remain as they are. However, those
who saw the game believe that the
"Ou d second
game had one been played.
: The record of Bemidji is all the

WALSH IS SENTENCED
Former Chicago Banker Given
Five Years in Prison.
SECURES STAY OF JUDGMENT


$4,000 Bail Pending an Appeal
From the Decision of Judge Ander.
son Denying New Trial.
Chicago, March 14-John R. Walsh,
former president of the Chicago Ma
tional bank of this city and convicted
of illegal use of the funds of that in.
stitution, was denied a new trial by
Judge Anderson of the United States
district court and sentenced to serve
five years in the federal penitentiary
at Fort Leavenworth. $751;
AS soon as the court had announced
his decision refusing to grant new
trial the attorneys for the defense en-
tered a motion in arrest of Judgment.
on which they argued for some time.
It was generally thought about the
courtroom that they would consume
two or more hours in giving their rea
sons for the granting of this motion,
but Attorney Hart, who presented it.
ceased speaking in about thirty min.
utes. Judge Anderson then promptly
overruled the motion and sentenced
the banker to five years in Fort
Leavenworth.
In sentencing Walsh Judge Ander-
son said:
"The character of the evidence and
the character of the crime of which
this defendant has been found guilty
call for extreme judgment. The facts
are, however, that this defendant is
seventy years of age and that mere
1mpris is of itself so heavy a
punishment in case Of this kind I
have concluded that the law will be
satisfied with the minimum penalty,
which is five years.
The court further directed that all
the counts in the indictment be served
concurrently and further directed that
the defendant pay the entire cost of
the trial. An application was imme-
diatsly made to Judge Grosscup Of
the United States circuit court of ap-
peals for a supersedeas, which was
granted, and Walsh was released I'M
der bonds of $4,000 pending the
hearing of his appeal.
