The football game between James
town college and the home team at
jamestown resulted in a decided VIC
tory for our friends at jamestown col
lege. The jamestown people certainly
put up a good game and earned their
success. We hope that at some future
time the story may read differently SO
far as the result is concerned. We
wish to extend thanks to the James
town people for the courtesies extended
the boys while there. They report a
good time and feel like going again.
The ride was long, cold and disagree
able but nevertheless they played q
good game. They start for Wahpeton
today to play with the fast eleven of
the Science school
Last Saturday evening a stag party
was given in the armory under the
auspices Of the Y M. G. A. State
Secretary Miller was present and help
ed the boys have a hilarious time.
Many athletic stunts were pulled off
to the delight of the onlookers; there
were speeches and music, to say moth
ing Of lunch. All present enjoyed the
occasion and hope that something
similar may be held in the future.
The enrolment of students stead
lily increases. There will undoubted-
ly be considerable larger enrolment

pipe fitting, tinsmithing and a number

ing to such a course.
The new equipment includes a COM
pletely equipped American Tool Works
