BY defeating the fast Grand
Rapids high school football team in
that city last Saturday by a score
of FL to 9 the Bemidji high school
accomplished feat that has never
before been done in Northern
Minnesota. The Bemidii boys
downed Grand Rapids here two
years ago, by a close score.
AS the Grand Rapids game was
considered the" game of the
season, the Bemidji boys took
long step toward the high school
championship of Northern Mime
sofa.
Grand Rapids found it almost i'm
possible to gain through the Bemidji
line, their forward passes were inter-
cepted, attempting end runs was a
waste of energy, as not once did
they gain around either Gould or
Bailey. The Rapids boys were
forced to punt time after time, and
even this was losing game, as Nc
Donald the local quarter out-punted
Mclaughlin by an average CT
fifteen yards. The Bemidji backfeld
rarely failed to gain by smashing the
line, and attempts at short end runs
always brought good results.
Bemidji Victim of Dupe.
Grand Rapids won the toss and
choose to defend the west goal. with
the sun and wind to their backs.
Hendrickson kicked off to Powers
who returned the oval ten yards. On
the next play forward pass, Bran
don to GRAHAM. who was out of the
field play hiding in the crowd so
escaping the notice of Bemidji's end
after a great sixty yard run, scored
the first touchdown of the game.
Bandon followed a moment later by
kicking goal. During the remainder
of the period neither eleven was able
score. Score at end of first quarter:
Grand Rapids 9 Bemidji 0.

One Hundred Men Fight All Night to
Save Mills and Village from
Destruction.
BANK OF SMOKE NEAR BEMIDJI
No Danger Now in Baudette, Spooner,
Kelliher or Blackjack District
Say Reports. y

One hundred men fought all Of
last night to save the Walker lumber
mills from destruction by fire.
AS the result of superhuman efforts
the mills and village was saved and
the fires are now under control.
The fire there became so serious
that bells were wrung and general
alarm spread. The flames were
pouring out of the forest and for
several hours looked dangerous.
A message from there this after.
noon said all danger now was passed.
A bank of>smoke to the west of
Bemidji this afternoon told of fires
in that direction but no word OF any
serious conhagration has been re-
ceived here.
From the Baudette-Spooner dis
trict comes the news that practically
all the fires in that region have be-.
come extinguished as the result of
heavy rains there the latter part of
last week.
1t is also said that the relief
work there is being carried on
splendidly.
A machine from the state uni
versity has been shipped in to
purify the water, and there is now
little. danger from typhoid.
In the Kelliher and Blackjack
district the fires have died down.

From Alexandria Mr.. Dyer came directly

weeks with us we have noticed decided
progress. The domestic science course
has been introduced, a nd the manual
training has been extended to the grades.
Many new books have been furnished for
every department so that we are now
well equipped with material to work
with. The outlook seems very encour-
aging and we are all looking for a profit
able school year.

A new editorial staff has been elected
to publish the Echo for the following year,
and we intend to put forth our best
efforts to make the paper success. This
year the Echo is to be a high school paper
in every sense of the word, and we hope
to improve with each copy. We ask the

the alumni. the faculty. the business men
and the citizens of Bemidji. -

gan a march towards the Rapids

Grand Rapids started the second
half with a rush, and after two min
utes of fast play, Benton kicked a
field goal from the fifteen yard line.
Bemidji steadily worked towards the
Rapids goal after the next kick off,
and Larson went over for touchdown,
Stanton again kicking goal. Bemidji
kicked off to Grand Rapids and re-
covered the ball on a tumble on the
Rapids forty yard line. From there
Gould made an end run of fifteen
yards. Bemidji failed to gain on
the next two downs, Bailey dropped
a beautiful field goal from the thirty
yard line. Score at end of third
period; Grand Rapies 9 Bemidji IS.
Game Becomes Fast and Furious.
The two elevens started the
fourth period by playing each other
to a standstill, and it was only
after the hardest kind of work that
the Bemidji boys we're able to. take
the ball to the Rapids ten yard line
where Mcdonald went through left
tackle with great interference for
Bemidji's third and last touchdown
of the game. Stanton kicked goal.

eleven was in the game from the

Special mention should be made
of Lepley's great playing at center.
This was his first game and he never
made a poor pass. Chamberlain
who has held down right guard,
played his first game at right tackle
and proved a great man at getting
through and smashing interference.
Mcdonald at quarter played a star
game. Stanton who was slightly
INJURED at the first part of the game,
made some beautiful runs on return
punts. Captain Larson proved to be
a great line player.
Grand Rapids was unable to solve
Bemidji's direct passes and short
side plays and failed to break up
Bemidji's great interference.
