FIREMEN'S TOURNAMENT
Big Event to Take Place at Manning
July Sd and 4th-Denison Will
Be Represented There.
Manning, jane 2-Plans are being
laid to take care of the big tournament
to be held in Manning July 5 and 4.
Last week H. p. Hansen and August
Reinhold were in Coon Rapids inter-
viewing members of their department
and found them enthusiastic over
their team. claiming it will be made up
of better runners than of last year,
and that they hoped to make a good
showing. 1t is known that Harlan will
be here with team as good or better
than the one they had last year. This
means that they are coming with the
intention of taking the big silver cup
home if possible.
Audubon will be represented. and
from the reports that come from that
town crack running team will be
here to represent the town. Audubon's
last years team surprised its most ar
dent admirers and a team that will
rival Hafan's will come from that
town.
Carroll, Denison, Atlantic and Gid
den will perhaps send teams, and as
this tournament has as fast teams as
found at the state tournament, some
great running will take place.
What will Manning have? That is
a secret. Manning never crows over
her team, yet when the time comes for
running, it can be banked upon that
the runners will give every ounce Of
their strength to win the races. There
is little something about the Man
ming teams that can't be explained,
| The trainers call it pep. 1t is some
thing that puts fire into the runners
| 1t is pride, harmony, hops, love of
| Manning, enthusiasm, grit, speed
call it what ever you Wilt crops
out in the little song that begins with
Manning town."
The races will be held on the land
owned by Lorenz Thomson in the
south part of Manning. Less than 3
months intervene between now and
this great event. 1t is predicted that
this tournament will be the biggest and
be ever held in this section of Iowa.
No doubt many of the former resi-
dents of Manning will be here to wit
ness the races and see Manning
world champions in action.
