WISCONSIN HAS
TWO ELEvENS
Badger Coach Using Heavy
Material-Looks Like a
Winning Team

Madison. Wis.,, Oct. 3-The first
test of the much touted Wisconsin foot.
ball team will come next Saturday
when the Badgers play Lawrence coll
lege of Appleton. The game will be
of more than passing interest to the
Badgers this year due to the fact that
the smaller %collegians held their big
brothers to a 6 to 6 tie when they
opened the season here last year,
Word comes from Appleton that
Coach Catlin has whipped together a
team this fall which he hopes will bet
ter the feat of 1910. The game on
saturday Is sure to prove a hard one
for Wisconsin for the Lawrence COL
lege team will have the experience of
one game. whereas the Badgers will
enter the fray green.
Badgers Are Heavy
A week and a half of practice has
not done must to definitely shape the
Wisconsin team. Every change that
has been made in the lineup of what
has been termed the first varsity indi-

to be in finding the right man for
center. Pierce has been worked in that
position more than any other man
since practice began. Mackmillar was
tried out there night during the
week. Branstad has been grooming
himself for the place. but the coaches
have no seen fit to use him there yet.
Mackmillar is an excellent passer and
probably will be given an opportunity
to work against Lawrence Saturday.
Ends Are Big Men
Diminutive ends seem to be a. thing
OF the past at Wisconsin. The ex-
tremtties of the line have caused
Coaches Richards and Driver no end
OF trouble but a noticeable feature Of
the practices that have been held is
h fact that no small men have been
tried out at end.
Mackmillar is another big man who
has been tried out on the end Of the
line. In Butler, a recruit from last
years freshman team, the coaches be-
lieve they have uncovered a man who
will take care of Mackmillar's tackle
in case Mack is switched to some other
position. Butler weighs over $50
pounds. Captain Buser undoubtedly
will be used at right tackle, but it is
doubtful If he will be able to play in
the preliminary games. Sam Neprud
and Dick Branstad have been playing
the guard positions on the varsity.

Scrimmage practice will be held
every, night this week against the
team and the East Grand Forks high
school. AS has been said a number
Of times. the game on Saturday served
as an incentive to the local boys to
get out and cinch the state title. From
the reports from other cities in the
state. the only real %contenders are
Minot, Fargo. Casselton which de-
Devils Lake. Minot and Devils Lake

expected to make short work Of Dew.
Ills Lake and the winner of the Grand

championship of h northern part of
the state. Fargo probably will be the
hardest eleven the locals will buck

The Duluth Game.
The Central high school Of Duluth

challenge which has been issued to
the locals. They have been given the
option of either October 2S or No

Norwich blacksmith, was one of the
first citizens on the scene and he
says the fire had gotten under good
Roadway in the northwestern corner
Of the pool hall. The pool hall and
fixtures wero soon a mass Of flames
and no attempt was made to save
that building.
The fire soon spread to the gen
eral store of j. W. Shields which was
soon totally burned. The Shields
store carried $4,000 stock, which
was partially covered by insurance.
The old printing office building
came near going up in smoke. The
citizens covered the building with
wet blankets and saved it.
The wind was in the southwest and
this is all that saved the entire town
from being wiped out. Norwich has
no fire protection
Just how the fire started is not

Of incendiary origin. The owner OF
the pool hall was cut Of town. It is

Where He Testified Against OIL.
GERS Of National Home Loan Asso.
Who Were Found Guilty

N. o. Seglen returned from Spo
kane, WASH, where he went to tes-
tify in the famous 1ver-Carr case in
the United States district court.
X. s. Ives and George Carr were
Indicted last month charged with us
ing the mails to defraud in exploit
ing the merits of the National Home
company. The company will be re-
membered as having had offices in
this city in the old NUM- building at
the corner of Main and Third streets.
George Carr vas the manager and
he is we'll known in this section.
Both Ives and Carr were found
guilty of the charges by the federal
jury and were sentenced to serve five
years each in the penitentiary and
pay a fine Of $1,000. Four of the
most noted lawyers on the Pacific
coast have charge of their case and
- tho convicted men are said TO have
unlimited funds it rs likely that the
case will be fought clear through to
the higher courts.
Minot and North Dakota people
are interested in the case because
many in this section entrusted the
company with their money. Ives was
president Of the company and Carr
secretary.
The system Of making loans by the
company rs said to have been the
Nea of George Carr, who organized
the National Home Building company.
The name was latter changed 20 tho
National Home company. Last April
the government returned an indict-
mont against tho defendants Of tho
Naional Home Bu1ldlg company
which was thrown out as defective,
- the company had changed the
name.
More than 1000 contracts, scatter
cd throughout North Dakota and 9TH

company. The government did not
charge hat the loa system wa a
fraud. but the Indictment specified
