.GR|O|RON SEASON
NOW ON THE WAY
WESLEYAN's NEW COACH ON
THE GROUND TO LINE UP THE
TEAM TO REPRESENT THE
COLLEGE.
There is great anticipation this year

There is great anticipation this year
that Dakota Wesleyan is going to cut
more of figure in the football arena
this year than for several years pre-
yious. This feeling is brought about
about through securing of a new
choach in the person of Ralph M.
Douglas, who is already On the
ground and today began to get in
touch with the football artists, some
Of whom will be found in the lineup
of the eleven. Some of the oldtime
men got in today but the bulk of the
football me will not reach Mitchell
until tomorrow or Wednesday.
Mr.. Douglas only arrived a few
days ago, but the persons who have
met him have been impressed with
the enthusiasm which he puts into
his talk concerning athletics and the
football idea. With his over six feet
Of stature and large physique, Mr..
Douglas impresses one with the idea
that he can put the ginger in his
men to make them fight to the last
ditch before they are beaten. The
Wesleyans have always been good
fighters, and the new coach will try
and instill the idea stronger than ev

charity, is the plan that was Endorsed
y ,sterday by the Linwood P%resbyter-

the matter. decided that the church

expense. music. The plan was out

congregation.
But that does not mean that the
church will be without music. A
volunteer chorus will render song SER

for some time, and as it became gen
orally known many Of Kansas City's
best singers went to the board and
offered their services free.

er in the play.
Mr.. Douglas has been assistant
coach at Lake Forest University for
the past two years under the coach
ing Of Mr.. Bert Kennedy. During
his collegiate career MI. Douglas has
had much football experience, play
ing all the important positions in the
game. While at Alma college, Michi-
gan, he was chosen several success
sive years for the all-star Michigan
team, and for two years was chosen
for the all-star Illinois team while at
Lake Forest university. He holds
the intercollegiate record in Michi-
gan for the discus throw.
Speaking of the new rules adopted
for football this season, Mr.. Douglas
said: Before coming west I foun
that the football leaders themselves
were not wholly versed in the rules
and that the season will have to adj
vance some before much of a definite
character can be formed. The rules
will be found largely experimental
and they will have to be tried out to
a certain extent. There is this that
can be Sid for the new rules, and it
will mean considerably more for the
spectators, and that is the game will
be much more spectacular, for the
players will have to take many more
chances than before and as a result
there is no question but what the
scores of the game will run much
higher. The fact that line plunging
has largely been eliminated from the
game it will give the man with the
ball a better opportunity to get
through to the goal. The old stars
of the game will have to forget what
they knew under the former rules
and adopt tactics. l am antici-
pating a good year in football, and
as soon as I can get in touch with the
men of the football squad we will
commence to formulate plans for the
opening Of the training season. In
the short time that l have been here
i have made the acquaintance of a
number Of people who seem to dis
play a k n interest in the game of
football, and L am going to make the
best possible endeavor to give Nit
chell a winning team"

the house at the time, and heard
the shot fired. Both, seemingly,]

a short time before going out. Mrs.
Schlimgen called in the nearest

tinct when he reached the scene of

Between $3.50 to 1OsI was In the

shot. I wanted to go out and look,
but my sister would not let me. So
1 remained in the house as long as I
could and then I looked out Of the
bedroom window to the south, but
we saw nothing. We then looked,
out Of the door in the same direction,
and l saw him where he was found.
I exclaimed my God, can't you see
him-thera he lays We rushed out
to where my husband was lying. He
was still alive, but was not groaning,
only breathing heavily. I went to
him and felt of his body and called
him several times but getting no
answer I hurried for help. All the
neighbors had retired and I went to
Mrs. Carlson's home and sent her son
for help. After we returned to where
the body was Lying. We got some
water and bathed his head. We knew
there was life still in the body. When
the doctor came I was taken into the
house and saw nothing more. There
vas no light in the hause and I did
not see the gun"
In response to questions asked by
the members of the jury Mrs. Schlim- !
gen made the following statement:
"He came home to supper. He laid
out there IN the ground about is

seemed to have the blues for the past
week"
In answer to the question as to
whether he had ever threatened to
kill himself. Mrs. Schlimgen said:
"When he got mad he seemed to be
crazy and he had threatened it sew
eral times before. TAere was Moth
ing out of the ordinary that happen
ed on the night of the shooting.
There was 10 particular trouble Sat-
urday evening. When he left the
house Henry said he was going to
work."
