T0MAHAWk-GR
RAPIDS GAME

The small gymnasium was a great
factor in hindering the Grand Rapids
players from rolling up a greater
score. The Rapids players are used
to playing with the out of bounds rules
enforced. This rule was not enforc-
ed at Tomahawk.
Seventeen fouls We're called on
the Rapids men-some of them were
of an exceedingly doubtful nature.
TomahaWk was benefited twice by
these doubtful fouls. Fuller seemed
to lack experience and the game was
slow in the half he refereed. There
was a marked contrast to the first
half when Baldauf went in as referee
in the Last half The game became
fast and interesting.
Babcock and Hill held the Tona-
hawk forwards down so hard that they
could not get d field basket. Field
baskets were made by Babcock /,
Molke, 1, Hill 2, Weeks 2 Molke
made seven free throws. Score end

NOTESAT IDEAL

Fred Schnabel was the first person
TO buy a ticket to the new Ideal
Theatre Some OF Fred's friends, say
that he stood at the door Of the
theatre for hours before the box Of
flee opened. May be It's true. Fred
Is the advertising manager for the
EIks MinstreIs and it is possible that
he was setting an example for the
people to follow when the day Of the
Elk s show arrives. He's some press
agent all right, always trying some
stunt to get some free advert sing
for the Elks' Ministries.
McCamley & Pomainville's ad was
the first shown on the curtain at the
Ideal theatre.
