big battle of the year, not knowing
that Fargo college has this year only
a green squad, with but one or two
veterans in the entire line Up. The St

game and the green lads from North
Dakota could 10 nothing with the
splendid scoring machine that had
been prepared for their special beneft.
Puzzling formations, that evolved

FARGO WON
GREAT GAME
Fast, Scrappy Midgets Turned
Defeat to Victory
Hines Brilliant Run Broke Up
Game IN Last Quarter

Yesterdays football battle between
Fargo high n Moorhead high will go
down In the history or the two schools
as n OF h greatest lights on their
records. Fargo was able to snatch VIC
tory from seeming defeat hrough the
nimble wits, and the speed of Hines.
The fast little star intercepted a
forward pass on his own twenty-five
yard line, leaped n wriggled clear
and tore down the field a distance of
seventy-tive yards for one of the most
sensational runs ever seen on a local
gridiron, planting the ball squarely be-
hind the Moorhead goal posts for the
first score of the game.
Hines great play came in the last
quarter, when the Moorhead team, fired
by the soaring words OF their coach
between halves, was marching toward
Fargo's goal by the brilliant use of the
forward pass and the tremendous
plunges OF their fullback, Peterson.
Moorhead used n OF the open shift
plays that Fargo college used last year
with great success. The Fargo team
seemed unable to solve 1t. For three
quarters OF the game and more, neither

cry down 1t looked like defeat for the
locals or at best a scoreless tie. Then
the SCORE was 8 to 0 in favor of Fargo.

or eight minutes to play Moorhead
again started to tear down the Held

Again they got dangerously near the
Fargo goal but the nnidgets defense
stifEened and the ball was lost to Moor
head on downs. Hines punted clear
with the ball In Moorhead territory and
darkness coming on 1t looked like the
battle would end 6 to 0.
Moorhead used poor Judgment and
with the ball inside their ten yard

Fadden and made FIVE yards when the
half ended. Score 0 to 0.
The second half started with Fargo
kicking off to Moorhead who were held

Fargo. Both teams now settled down
and 1t was an impossibtlity for either
team to make IN gains. Moorhead
sprung their split formation that prov

worked to perfection for three long
gains. Then Fargo's line woke up and
from then on the new shift did not
make any gains. So far the game was

Crowd Poor Sports.
One of the aggravating features of
the game was the lack of police to
keep the side lines clear. With one
of the finest football fields in the west
to play On there was absolutely nc ex-
cuse for the crowd getting on the field
and 1t was a display of very poor
sportsmanship on the part OF every per-
son who crowded onto the gridiron-
With q few minutes to play, after
Fargo's second touchdown the whole
crowd swarmed onto the field and II
was impossible to finish the game.
Healy did not kick goal until almost
the entire crowd had gone. There was
still a minute or two to play but Moor
head decided there was no use of at
tempting to do anything more In the
dusk that by that time enveloped the
field.

In the city of Berlin there Is 9

is said that in case of famine such
bread would be sufficiently nutri-

Indeed, "sawdust bread" is not in
its ingredients, perhaps, very different
from certain food that savages ex-

marrow of the sage palm furnishes a
kind of white bread or -four. In Lap
land a great delicacy is little round

does also that of the common birch.

THOUGH WATERS ROAR
CAMPERS GET READY
Sportsmen and Their Wives Are
Preparing for Their Annual
Pilgrimage to the Hills

The fishig season - at hand 1t is
true that those sportsmen who were
out Sunday did not find much sport
but it is also true that the experts
and the enthusiasts and the diletante
crowd as well are preparing to go to
the streams and lakes for the sum
mer camping irrespective of whether
the conditions are ripe for fishing or
not. Because of the consistent cold
nights of the spring season together
with the warm days and nights of the
past week the streams are high and
roilly. There are no pools or back
waters and consequently poor fishing
possibilities.
Many Out On Sunday
Several parties were out Sunday
some on the Ahtanum, some on the
Wenas. some on the Naches. but
none of three reported any great
catches. The average was less than
ten fish to the pole, perhaps much
less, If proper allowance is made for
the stories told. but some Of the ex-
perts who stayed with the game early
and late, did better than this. though
not so much better, all things con-

spent the greater part of the season
last year at Lake Keechelus and who
was one of the most capable of the
fishermen there. passed through this
city Monday on his way to the lake
for the present summer season. He
plans If no one else has taken up the
responsibility, of opening a store a!
Keechelus so that campers will not
be under the necessity, as was the
case last year, of buying their sup
plies at Easton. If such store has
been opened Mr. Tyrrell will merely
devote himself to having good time.
Go to American River
Walter Tuesley and family expect
to leave this week for the junction of
the Dumping and American rivers,
where they will pitch their tent and
will thus be in a position from which
they can work either the Dumping,
American or Naches rives or go
through at any time to Dumping Lake
for the sport there. There is every
| indication, at this time, that Lake
| Keechelus will be the most popular
Yakima resort this year, but Fish
