To NORMALS

In one of the fastest basket ball
games ever seen on a local floor, the
Stevens Point Normals defeated the
local high school team by a score OF
II to 10. 1t was a brilliant exhibition
OF fast snappy floor and team work
and there is great deal of credit
due to the high school team in hold
| ing down a team of the caliber of
the Normal to such a low score.
1t was anybodys game in the sec
ond half right up to the whistle.
The Normals won by one point and
that was a free throw-each team
made five field baskets.
A peculiar thing about the game
was that the NOrmals did not score
in the first half and that half end
ed with a score of TO nothing in ia
Yor OF the Rapids, but in the sec
ond half the Normalites got busy
and opening with a rush played the
ASS1piAS 44SA I'LL l41N44 4SCL S1uO lieu
the score. AT that it was a hard
fought battle and the local boys put
up a grand fight
Only two fouls were called on
each team. Had our free shooters
been able TO put the ball in the
basket on these free throws, the
game would have gone to the Ra-
pids.
NJ. Johnson made three field ba.s-
kets, Ppout made one and Smith
made one.
Next Friday the cracker jack team
from Weyauwega, which has not
met defeat so far this season, viii
meet the locals. And a week from
Friday, the crack Fond du Lac high
school team, another team that has
won all its games, viii play here.
These viii be elimination games and
viii either send or not send the
Rapids team 10 the tournament.

FARMERS AND OTHERS
ATTENTION

With the coming Of spring there Is
way to relieve the unemployment
situation which has been so press
ing a problem during the winter
months.
Throughout the state there are
thousands OF farmers who need men
to work their farms. In the cities
there are thousands of men who
need jobs. The state has provided
a medium for bringing together. these
two classes in the free employment
Bureau. The Reporter urges the
farmers to obtain their help through
this agency. ANY farmer who.Wants
men can get as many as he needs. by
telling his wants TO the employment
bureau at Milwaukee. The service is
absolutely free-not cent Of ex-
pense TO either the man who offers
the job or the man who takes it.
The more men working on the
farms this summer, the fewer unem-
ployed there will be existing in
want in the cities. The farmers
can help by absorbing as much as
possible OF the labor supply which
is now idle because Of the indus
trial depression.
Apply now to the employment bu-
reau for the men you need. Don't
you farm short handed this summer.
There is no need of it when.a post
al card will put you in touch with an
enormous labor supply in the cities,
eager for work.

his cooperation in forming the

to the fact that there is not going
to be amy organized ball in thister-
ritory, We would like to know iif
there will be any chance to organize
a semi pro league" He goes on to
tell of the cities suggested for this
league.
Managere Abel informed a Report
er representative that in the event
of there being no professional team
to represent the city this season,
| that he would look with favor on
this proposed semi pro league and
would enter the Outlaws in it.
The Abel & Podawiltz Outlaws
made good last season and will be
stronger and better than ever this
season.

FRENCH REMEDY
AIDS STOMACH
SUFFERERS

France has been called the nation
without stomach troubles. The
French Lave for generations used a
simple mixture OF vegetable oils
that relieves stomach and intestinal
ailments and keeps the bowels free
from foul, poisonous matter. The
stomach is left to perform its func-
tons normally. Indigestion and gas
tritis vanish.
Mr. Geo. H. Mayr, a leading drug
gis+ OF Chicago. cured himself with
this remedy in a short time. The
demand is so great tina the imports
these oils from France and compound
them under the name OF Mayr's Won
derful Remedy. People every where
write and testify OF the marvellous re
lief they have received using this
remedy-one dose viii rid the body
of poisonous accretions that have
accumulated for years and convince
the most chronic sufferer Of stom-
ach, liver or intestinal troubles.
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy is sold
by leading druggists everywhere
with the positive understanding that
your money will be refunded without
question or quible if ONE bottle
fails to give you absolute satisfac-
ton.

future farmers are enrolled in these
