gers may now be booked to and from

This is the situation regarding
peace and mediation overtures, &C.
cording to high authority. It is still
too early to discuss details, but by
careful and slow discussions through
both official and private sources the
president, it is said, has reason for
hope that some definite peace over

date. ~-=.. -
The president characterizes the sen

FOOTBALL CONTEST IS TIE
Light But Fast High School Eleven
Holds Heavy Athletic Aggregation
to z to Z Score in Short Contest.
STUDENTS PROSPECTS BRIGHT

IN the nrSt football contest OF the
season, the Bemidji high school
eleven, by fast team play and clever
execution of the forward pass, held
the heavy Athletic club aggregation
to Z to Z tie yesterday afternoon
at the fair grounds.
The game was short, two ten-min-
ute and two fve-minute quarters be-
ing played, and during the first part
of the contest the students played
rings around the Athletics, holding
their heavier opponents when on the
defense and carrying the ball for
long gains when on the offense. Tan
5ner, Claude Bailey and George Gra-
ham were the bright stars of the
high school team. Bailey's work
was of high order and his carrying
of the ball was brilliant, and repeat
eddy did he break through the heavy
line Of the Athletics for long gains.
Not only did Graham star in his
handling of the forward pass, but his
tackling and defensive play was
above the general run of high school
ends.
Coach Bestul has developed foot
ball machine which should have no
difficulty in winning the northern
Minnesota high school champion
ship.
The line is composed of gritty
players, everyone game to the finish
and the team is without doubt the
best since the organization of 1908,
when the north state title was an
nexed.
While the players of the Athletic
club, according to the "dope, were
picked as Tire winners. They were
mot entitled to- a victory and were
fortunate in the securing of a tie.
The work of the backfield was rag
ged and the line-play was poor. The
fact that no scrimmage has been
given the team explains this fault in
part and the loss of such stars as
Bell, Brandon, Trafton, Hendrickson
and Getchell was also felt.
Trafton, the Athletics star half,
was injured early in the contest and
forced to retire.
For, the Athletics the offensive
work of Wiley was largely RESPONSE
BILE for the tieing of the score in the
last half, while Naugle's defensive
play featured. Ill.,.
The touchdowns were made as fol-
lows: A tumble gave the ball to
the high school on the Athletics
[forty-yard line. Two forward pass
es, Tanner to G.. Graham, took it to
the fifteen-yard line, when line
bucks by Bailey carried it across the
line. Tanner kicked goal.
Not until the second half did the
Athletics score. Earle Bailey, for
mer high school quarter and cap
tain, who had replaced Peck at
tackle, tackled Johnson hard and he
fumbled Lycan's kick. The Ath-
letics recovered the ball and series
of cross bucks by Wiley, Lycan and
Huffman netted touchdown. Stan
ton kicked an easy goal, placing the
score at tie.

London, Sept. 19.-It was announc-
ed officially in Paris that the allies
had progressed somewhat. The west.
ern wing is declared to have repulsed
a vigorous German offensive.
An official statement issued at Ber-
lin says the battle between the Disc
and Mouse rivers continues, with sure
indications that the allies are falling
back. 1t is declared that the French
attempt to cut through the German
right wing failed and sortie from
Verdun, on the right bank Of the
Mouse, was repulsed. The German
army is said to- be advancing slowly
but surely.
The public in Germany, as we'll as
IN France and England, has been
forced to content itself with most
meager news of the progress of mill
tary operations.
No extended statements have been
ISSUED in the past until after the re,
ttirement or temporary defeat of one
army or the other and this leads to
lthe conclusion that the battling con,
,tinues to be a draw.

Three Efforts by Allies.

Dispatches would indicate the ef-
Norts of the allies have been divided
zinto three supreme struggles First,
Ito dislodge the Germans from the
heights of the Aisne; second, to
break through the Fourth and Fifth
German armies at the center; third,
to outflank the German right under
General Won Kluck. The position OF
the Fourth and Fifth armies is con.
:sidered not so strong as the remain
sder of the line, while if the fanking
movement is successful the railroads
on which the Germans depend would
be cut.
Roughly speaking the line of the
advance Of the allies is threaded by
six rivers, four of which have already
been crossed. The crossing of the
Marine, marking the assumption OF
the aggressive by the allies, was pure.
ly rear guard action, in which Gen
eral Won Kluck cleverly kept the Ger
man right from being outfianked. So
far as the British were concerned the
passage of the Ourcq was not con.
tested. The Vesle river was only
lightly defended by the Germans,
while, as is now we'll known, the re-
sistance of the Germans at the Aisne
was and still is of the most stubborn
character on both the French and
British fronts.
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1914-09-19
More Rivers to Cross.

If the allies hold the shore across
the Aisne, which they gained despite
the heavy artillery fire from conceal
ed German batteries on the heights
above the river, two more rivers, the
Ailette and the DIS, remain to be
crossed. The country between the
Aisne and the Ailette is ideal for de-
fensive purposes and if the German
army holds the Aisne heights for a
few days defensive works can be con-
sstructed along the other two rivers,
which may delay the allies advance
,on German territory for long time.
On the other hand, if the Germans
.,resume the offensive the country now
pDccupied by them affords an excellent
Operating base.
It is clear from reports coming In
from the allies that the victory in the
hattie of the Marine and the assump.
ttion of the offensive had tremendous
IMMORAL effect on the Franco'Br1tish
sarnaies.
THE next move of either army Is
u1atter qr speculation, but the press
OF London dwells on the possibility
that the Germans are striving only
to hold strong position with view
of keeping the allies at bay and thus
-affording Emperor William an oppor:
tunity to rush more troops to his
eastern frontier. -
