BASKETBALL
River Falls 22---Stevens Point rs.

Last Friday evening the f a t
Stevens Point quint played the To-
cal Normal team on the home floor,
winning by the close margin of
points. The game was a thriller
from start to fnish, and every min
ute of play was made TO count.
The game opened with a rush and
neither side seemed to have the
better of it. The score was always
within three or four points Of being
even, and the half ended with the
visitors but one point in the lead
I3 to IA
The second half was almost a
repetition of the first. The scoring
alternated. Finn replaced Richards
early in this period. Nelson was
laid out, but went back into the
game with apparently added vigor.
The game ended with the score of
22 TO 26 in favor of the visitors.
Again River Falls showed better
individual work, but in team work
Stevens Point excelled, and thereby
won the game.

PROPOSED PACKING PLANT
Why II Should be Profitable for Pierce and
st. cFolx Counties.

In the last two issues of The
Journal we have explained what
the packing plant proposition is,
and have given general reasons
why this is a paying proposition,
and also why River Falls is the best
location for the one which is to
serve Pierce and St Croix counties.
In this article we quote a few gov
ernment figures to emphasize points
heretofore given.
The committee will meet next
Monday at Hudson. The expert
sent out by the government will be
present at the meeting, and this
session will probably decide the To-
cation of the plant.
GOVERNMENT STATISTICS
Following are h e government
statistics for 1910, showing h
amount of stock raised and sold in
Pierce and st. Croix counties in
that year This amount is undoubt-
edly below that of 1914

Figuring 800 working days in the
year, this amount would supply the
packing plant with 317 cattle, ISIS
swine aud 1T sheep each day on
the average.
The statistics also show that ST.
Croix county raised 904 ,023 bushels
of grain (such as corn, oats and
barley and l03, 27l tons Of hay and
fodder; Pierce county raised ga, 003
bu. of grain and 1873 tons of hay
and fodder. Comparing the above
figures with those of the two adjoin-
ing counties shows that Polk and
Barron counties raised about the
same amount of stock, but only
about one third the amount of corn,
oats and barley. The total value
Of stock in Polk county was 81, 49,
075, and in Barron county, $1,122,-
950-a total for both of $2,268,025.
Their total OF corn, oats and hay
raised in these counties was given
as about One-third of the amount
raised IN Pierce and st. Croix coun-
ties. This shows that, if Pierce
and st Croix counties would feed
up on their grains as closely as
Polk and Barron counties are now
feeding, they would be able to raise
three times their present amount of
stock. 1t also proves that the two
counties are enough to ably support
a packing plant-there is no need
of taking in more territory.

ELEVEN IN GOOD SHAPE

The vigilant football team and the
eleven representing Battery +. Of Fort

and II streets northeast. in what prom
tses to be a battle for blood. The Fort
Myer clubmen. champions Of the post.
have one of the best teams ever assem-
bled there and should be In the game
from the first whistle.
According to the dope the vigiiants
should win. but only after enc of the
hardest fought games ever staged at the
Vlgilants' Park. and that is saying con-
siderable. The winged v tribe under the
leadership of Coach Palmer Derby. II in
the best Of condition for the FIRST time
this season. and the northeast clubmen
are willing to wager that they will get
the long end of the score before the end
of the game.
Coach Derby sent his charges through
one Of the hardest signal practices last
night yet given his team in order to have
the team In the best of shape. and when
his charges take the field today they will
look more like a football eleven than
any other time this season
The Fort Nyer team comes here well
boosted and with them will have prac-
tically all the men connected with the
Virginia post. which should make the
evening very lively one for the Vigil
ants No admission will be charged as
usual and a preliminary game will also
be played starting at l:30 D. m. The big
game will start promptly at three o'clock.
Following are the probable line-ups:

Looking back of the games, this
series was the hardest fought in many
years, and Technical won the Prince

at all times and took advantage OF all

Following the great interest displayed
by the public at the Willie Houck-
Tommy Lowe fight recently. in which
the local lightweight got the decision.
Manager La Fontaine. of the Maryland
Athletic and Social Club. has signed
these two boys together for another
hfteen-round fight. In the last fight
Lowe electrified the spectators by send
ing the Philadelphia boy to the floor for
the count of seven, although the battle
was called a draw. and when they. take
the center of the ring on Turkey Day
the house will be taxed to its capacity.
The largest crowd that has ever at
tended fight program at the Ardmore
Club was on hand at the last fight, and
II is possible that many of the fans will
be turned down for seats owing to the
interest the program is receiving from
the local fstic fans. The public of
Washington has indicated to Man
La Fontaine that they want real fights
and he Is doing his part by bringing
these two men back into the ring as
opponents.

not intend to do so The boxers will
have the privilege of bargaining for the

this the association will step in and elm

forecast at this time The scheme is
certain to meet with objections contin-

laudable one and deserves encours ge-

arc the ones who should support the

FIRST TEAM.

one man who stands out head and
shoulders over the field. this being Guilt
gan, of Business Culligan has been of
An-High School caliber during the past
two seasons and he did not lack any OF his
asgressiveness this season. Culligan run
his team with a watchful eye all season
and at all times he offered an attack
which seemed to fool the defense of his
teams opponents. Besides running his
team at queens taste" Culligan did
the bulk of the gaining with the pig
skin himself and kept his opponents con-
sistantly alert to stop his snake-ike run
ming. He proved to be the best man in
the games at running back punts and
his broken field work was easily the best
shown during the past championship.
In handing CuIligan this position I
have picked him over two OF the gamest
football players who have ever pull
ed on a cheated shoe, namely. the Rob
erts' brothers. "Jackey'' and Molly
"Jackey." as he is known among the fol-
lowers of scholastic athletics has some
thing of the edge on his brother Molly"
and his ability in both quarter back and
half back, at advancing the ball, gives
him this selection. Molly" who held
down the signal-calling position for the
Central team, has been a consistent work
er all season and proved his gameness in
the nnal game OF the year between CEN
trail and Western, when with a slight
attack of conclusion of the brain he
made a grand and brilliant attempt to
stick to his task, but was ruled on the
field by the officials in charge of the con-
test.
The half backs this season were below
the par OF past years, but one of the
gridiron gladiators who played behind
the line for Business In but two games
is given the choice at right half back
on this mythical combination. This wiz
ard atsrunning with the pigskin Is Perry
Dorwick and 1 can say without ques-
ton that no local experts who have wit
messed this young athlete in action will
ever doubt his selection.
In past seasons some one has always
been awarded the captain position on this
mythical outfit for his all-around good
work. and this year, as II Is up to me 20
appoint some one to lead this eleven,
Dorwick Is my choice because of his won
derful gridiron ability which he demon
strated when his team needed him most.
To followers Of the scholastic games the
ability Of Dorwick at circling the ends
