HELhKAY TO Lead
U" ELEVEN IN 1917
Is Selected to Succeed George Finear-
son at Annual Banquet of Team
-Four Are Lost.

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 15.-Clos-
ing the football season for 1915, men,
bers of the squad. athletic board and
faculty advisers of the North Dakota
university gathered at the Hotel Fred
erick, where banquet was served.
Lyle Helmkay, who for the past
three years has been one of the star
backfield men, was chosen captain for
next season. succeeding George Fin
carson, who guided the team this
year. Fingarson, one of the most de-
pendable linemen that has ever rep
resented the varsity, will be lost to
the 1917 team through graduation.
Other men who will be lost to the
team through graduation are: Hap
py ShultZ, William Boyce and Doug
las Mckay. Their departure will be
keenly felt. as they have been the
stellar lights for Gill, who centered
most of the intricate plays of 1916
about their ability. Mckay, who is
probably the greatest all around foot
ball star to ever graduate from u. N.
D., anticipates going to West Point
ICES, he will undoubtedly try out for
the big army eleven.
At the banquet last evening, sew
eral short speeches were made. in
|cluding talks by DR.. w. G. Bek,
Coach Andy Gill, Captain George Fin
carson and Captain elect Lyle Helm
kay.
Present indications point to great
team next year, as large number of
the veterans will be back and these
will be supported by men who have
been pushing the regulars hard for
berths this year.

MEETING
AT new
ORLEANS
Annual Meeting of National
Association of Baseball
Leagues in Progress

New Orleans, Nov. 15.-Following
discussion of the annual report of Sec.
John H. Farrell, appointment of COM
mittees and a preliminary conference
by representatives Of Class B leagues
the National Association of Baseball
Leagues late yesterday cleared the
way for consideration today of some
Of the more important questions sched-
uled for settlement during the ses-
Sions here.
The conference of representatives Of
class 3 leagues resulted in the an
nouncement that a formal request
would be made for representation on
the national commission of the minor
leagues organization. The minor
leagues, it was contended, have more
need of representations on the ma
tional commission than the baseball
players fraternity. A resolution to
this effect will be drawn up by the
committee on resolutions it was an
nounced, and will be submitted to the
delegates today or Thursday.
The national board of arbitration
will hand down decision today on 100
disputed cases which have been sub
mitted for settlement. Representa-
tives of sixteen minor leagues, COM
prising about 200 delegates, were pres
ent at the opening session yesterday,
and were welcomed to New Orleans
by Mayor Behrman. Vice Pres. T. H.
Murnane presided, in the absence of
Pres M. II. Sexton. None of the
members Of the national commission
were in attendance.

Last Sunday Mr.. and Mrs. Adolph

500 o'clock dinner to thirteen fami-

BUMPER CROP
is ON ITS WAY
SAY EXPERTS
MOISTURE MOST EVENLY DIS
TRIBUTED AND ABOVE
NORMAL RAINFALL.
Every Crop But Corn Catching Up
With Average Seasons. Big
Yield Promised.

The Press interviewed John Thysell,
superintendent of the Dickinson ex-
pertinent station, this week and find
that he is very optomistic regarding
the outlook for a good crop this
year. Considering the late season., -
Mr.. Thysell said, "the crops are all
coming fine and bid fair to produce
a big yield. Corn is backward, the
same as last year, but with a continu-
ance of the present hot weather it
should make good, as it did last year.
The rainfall last year up to July list
was 11.03 inches. For the same
period this year is 1O.77 inches. The
normal, or average precipitation for
this period during the past "a years
is 1858 inches. So this year the pre-
cipitation is 2.04 above normal. The
rains this year have been well dis
tributed and had moist foundation
to light on. Some soil tests have re-
vealed moisture at depth below six
feet. The weather the past week
has been ideal for fast growth and a
big crop of prairie hay as we'll as of
the cereals is assured.
The unusually late and cold spring
made it impossible for many farmers
to complete their planting till after
schedule time but at the rate crops
are growing now they will be ready
for the harvest as in average seasons.
Fruit and Berries
Wherever fruit trees and berries
are found they are doing we'll. The
blossoms did not come till after the
frosts were over and there should be
plenty of bullberries, chokecherries,
plums and in some parts strawberries,
raspberries and June berries.
