Ieved tonight to have been accorded

Kansas city aviator, and his passenger.

passenger Yesterday on an attempted
aight in hydro-aeroplane to San

After nearly 80 hours of searching.
in which another hydro-aeroplane,
power boats and automobiles were
used hope was virtually abandoned,
although the searchlight of many craft
continued until a late hour tonight to
shoot their beams over the water and
the rocky coast north of Santa Monica.
ANOTHER PLANE AIDS HUNT
Throughout last night and today
friends Of the young men and search
ers cherished the hope that they had
made a landing on the isolated shore
line where the barren Ma1ibu range
meets the ocean and where it is impos-
sible to take any sort of vehicle.
Horsemen and volunteer searchers
patroIled the coast line. while over the
waters of the ocean which had been
dashed into an angry sea by a 80 mile
gale, Glenn H. Martin. brother avia-
tor. hovered close to the waves looking
for a trace of the i'll fated Snookums

Faith in the proverbial luck of Avia-

Of fishermen arrived at Santa Monica
towing behind their motor boat a
hydro-aeroplane pontoon. It had been
picked up five miles southwest of Re
dondo beach.
Even the suggestive discovery of the
pontoon failed to dampen the ardor
Of the searchers. but the last vestige
Of hope vanished when Charles Day,
the builder of snookums. positively
identified the pontoon as the one he
had constructed for Kearny's hydro
aeroplane.
Day expressed the belief that the
men had landed on the water, probably
because of engine trouble. and the
heavy seas had wrenched off the pom
toon. causing the air and water craft
to lose it's equilibrium and hurl the
men into the water.
There is little doubt that Kearny
brought down the machine soon after
he had passed out of sight beyond

A PERSONNEL REVIEW

Leslie Kay, full back; weight, 1877
lbs; Senior class. Played right
tackle on the local high school team
four years. This was his first year
on the Normal team. His terrific
line smashes and tackling featured
every game and it was seldom he
failed to make a substantial gain
whenever called upon to take the
ball. He was also an adept at
throwing the forward pass.
Edison Condit, right half back,
weight 40 lbs; Senior class. He
has been on the Normal squad for
four years, and in the last two sea-
sons particularly he has been con-
sidered as the teams back field
star player. He is a hard, sure
tackler, and on both defense and Of
tense played fast, clever game.
Robert Cudd, center, weight Isl
lbs; Senior class. Cudd is an
earnest player, in the game all of
the time. His passing of the ball
has been perfect at all times and
opposing teams have often found
him a serious obstical to getting off
their plays.
James Richards, left guard; weight
169 lbs; Sophomore class. Rich
ards played one year on the local
high school team. He got onto
the Normal team about the middle
of the season. His punting always
sent the ball far back into the op-
ponents territory, and was a great
factor in keeping the Normal goal
out of danger.
Clyde Dopkins, left end; weight
156 lbs; Senior class. Was on the
local high school team for three
years, and on the Normal team the

by spectacular long end runs or
through his work on the secondary
defense.
Perlee Dickey, left end; weight
146 lbs; Junior class. Played with
the Hudson high school team last
year. He was sure at tackling and
did great work in breaking up the
opposing interference.
Floyd Keith, (Captain), quarter
back and right end; weight 1876 lbs;
Keith richly deserves the honor of
captain of the team. This was his
second year with the Normal and
his all-round, heady work featured
every one of the Normal's gridiron
contests. He was always in the
thickest of the fray.
Harry Peirce, right end; weight
40 lbs; Senior class. Peirce played
on the local high school team last
year. He worked hard in every
game and made his work count.
Coach B. E. Swenson, who came
here this year from the Y. M. c. A.
Training School at Springfield,
Mass, deserves great credit for his
work in developing the team. He
found here an almost entire team
of veteran players, and this general
ly proves very difficult situation
for strange coach to handle, the
players often feeling that the coach
can tell them nothing new, and re-
senting it if he tries to. But the
Normal boys took an altogether
different attitude, and the coach
and the players worked in perfect
harmony from the very first. They
all worked hard, and that is why
Professor Swenson and every mem
of the team shares alike the honor
of winning the championship of
the Northern Wisconsin Normal
School Athletic League.

A Thoroughly American Play

Next Monday, December 2, at the
the Opera House The Fortune
Hunter" will be revealed. The sue
cess of this splendid comedy every
where will be in evidence.
Plays have been written before
that pointed the way to win for
tune, most of them have been OBJ
jectionable, but the character so
faithfully drawn by the author
Winchell Smith, this particular
seeker for wealth is made one of
the most fascinating figures on the
stage to-day. 1t is a comedy that
has real merit and humor, also it is
thoroughly American.
The story as it unfolds grips the
interest and holds the tense atten-
ton of the audience from the
moment the curtain is raised till
the finale. No one should miss the
opportunity of seeing this play. 1t
is a play that will live in the annals
of American dramatic history. The
great cast includes the following:
Denton Vane, Grace Childers, Fred
Hand, Theodore Rock, Edna Ro-
land, Alice Anderson, Guy Kibbee
and others, and the scenic equip
ment is elaborate in the extreme.

past two years. He played good,
consistent game at all times.
John Nelson, left half back;
weight AS lbs; Junior class. Play
ed last year on the Hudson high
school team. Nelson was the fast
set runner on the team, and his
feetness not only gained lots of
ground for Normal bce saved her
from being scored upon several
times when opposing runners got
away with a clear field ahead.
Harold Stevens, left guard;
weight 165 lbs; Senior class.
Stevens always played his position
we'll, and it was seldom, indeed,
that he did not have the best of his
opponent.
Ray Cooke, left tackle; weight l49
lbs; Senior class. This was Cookies
third year on the Normal team. He

and offense, and his work was also

that appeared here with other
teams.
Milo Burgess, right guard: weight
147 lbs; Sophomore class. Although
this was his first year with the Nor
nal he played his position like a
veteran.
William Dawson, right tackle;
weight 1877 lbs; Junior class. Played
four years on the local high school
team, this being his first year on the
Normal squad. Dawson always
proved a stubborn proposition for
the opponents line smashes.

every game he has been in, either

In the Immediate vicinity of the

straw stacks and, we understand,
the owners intend burning the same.
Don't do it. If the village and town

pend 500 or so in st1awing the
sandy stretches of road in this vicin-
ity it would be paying investment,
one that would be appreciated by
the farmers-by some of them at
least. Straw on road is not very
durable but it helps out wonderfully
for a time, and is 500 per cent better
than the loose sand. Let us have a.
little straw on the roads and streets
on the outskirts of the village. It
won't cost much. ~

Deer Lassoed hy Bows.

A deer, pursued by several men
and boys, ran down the main street
of Mora last Friday, leaping over a
loaded wagon in it's flight and over
turning several kids who impeded
it's progress. 1t made straight for
the lake. which was incrusted with
thin ice, and was unable to make
very rapid progress in consequence
of occasionally breaking through.
One man obtained a pair of skis
and ventured upon the ice, but he
broke through and came near being
drowned, while George Newbert
started out with boat and gun,
breaking the ice with an axe as he
proceeded. He shot the deer in the

with a lariat and lassoed the animal.
It was then shot through the head

won the game in the second quarter
when they recovered fumbled punt
and, aided by a 15-yard penalty on
Minnesota, they came within strik-
ing distance of the Minnesota goal
line. From here they carried the
ball over by some of the most terrific
line bucking ever seen on a football
field. Their second touchdown came
shortly afterward on a beautifully
executed forward pass after the Min

in by the heavy line plunging of the
famous Wisconsin back field. The
game was bitterly contested on both
sides but was clean and sportsman
