Watertown high school played their
old rival Oconomowoc off their feet
in a one-sided game at Washington
park Saturday, the score being So to O.
The locals broke up every play tried
by the visitors and fought them off
their feet
The way the locals picked the enc
mics forward passes out of the air
was a joke, only three passes being
pulled off successfully. On the other
hand the locals made their passes
realize long gains and without any
trouble. The first half saw the visit
ors without spirit or fight but the sec
ond half saw them back in the field
with more pep and fight and they
held the highs down to one score.
They were never in any position to
score as the work of the locals was
so fast that the play was broken be-
fore fairly started. There was one
good feature about the game despite
the rivalry that exists between the
schools and that is that the Ocono-
mowOc team were game losers. A
crowd of about 400 fans witnessed the
game, but after the first four minutes
of play there wasn't much yelling
done on the part of the Oconomowoc
bunch. The visitors didn't have a
show for the locals went repeatedly
through their line for gains of ten to
fifteen yards. The interference was
very weak in the first half and showed
a lack of fight or knowledge of the
game.
A triple pass within the first three
minutes of play netted a goal Sand
rock took the ball between the posts
and Woodland kicked goal Buffmeier
carried the ball over for the second
score, after the team had walked
through the Oconomowoc interference
Henke went over with the next one
and the next one was made by Archie
who caught a forward on an Ocono-
mowoc play and carried it over for a
touchdown. Woodland copied a fun
BILE on an Oconomowoc play after the
kick off. The first quarter ended and
on the next play another tumble gave
Oconomowoc the ball. Henke copied
another forward and made fifteen
yards on a line plunge in the next
play. A tumble at this point was re-
covered by Sandrock and Henke car
ried it thirty yards through the line
for touchdown. Another by Ocono-
mowoc was caught by Sandrock and
Wegemann took it over the line The
first half ended 46 to O. Ballet made
the next touchdown in the last quar-
ter, scoring six points and the game
ended SO to 0.

LUTHERANS TO
celebrate Big
CHURCH Event
The Quadri- Centennial Of the Reform
alton To Be Fittingly Observed
Ry Local Churches On Wed
nesday, October 81.

The greatest of all celebrations of
the fateful Oct 81, 1917, when Martin
Luther nailed his 95 theses to the door
of the Castle church in Wittenberg
and inaugurated the great religious
movement known as the Reformation,
is now reaching it's climax and will be
celebrated in Watertown on Wednes-
day evening, October 81. The congre-
cations of ST. Marks, st. Luke's and
Trinity will join in a program to be
rendered in St. Marks church on the
evening of that day.
The program is being prepared and
includes two sermons, English and
German. A musical program will also
be completed in the near future. This
celebration is one of the many that
were celebrated so far this year
throughout the civilized world. This
year marks the 4O0th anniversary of
the birh of the Reformation and not
only Lutherans, but Professionals gen.
Aerally the world over have been cele-
brating it all year with series of lee
lures, special services, mass meetings
and song recitals.
The Quadricentenary celebration,
like all preceding anniversary cele-
brations has been distinguished by the
coinage of special medal. Few vital
things in history have called for a
greater coinage of medals than the
Reformation, and they have been so
numerous that nowhere is there a
really complete collection, though
many extensive ones have been made.
The Quadricentenary medal, which
was designed by j. Swanson is a
model Of simple dignity and symbolic
beauty.
One of the big features of the cele-
bration will be the widespread use of
the Reformation, Music" the general
term applied to the hymns written by
Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, and others
who took up the Luther movement, in
principle if not in toto.
In Milwaukee the years celebration
will attain its climax November 4, un-
der the joint management of the Wis.,
consin and Missouri synods. The
Auditorium has been engaged and
there will be mass gatherings after
noon and evening with three speakers
at each meeting. The college band
from DEBORAH, Iowa will furnish mu-
sic for the singing, and will also give
band concert on Monday night On
October % the General Council will
have the Auditorium and will hold a
joint celebration with the Iowa synod,
the United Norwegian synod, Ohio
synod and Buffalo synod.
Observed Jubilee.
The jubilee celebration in COM
memoration of the four hundredth an
niversary of the Reformation under
Martin Luther was observed Sunday

Her plight is desperate. For the

her armies are falling back further
and further. Only In spots are loyal
troops making attempts at resist
ance to the Austro-German tide.
The. Russians have been completely
driven out OF Galicia. Their hold on
any part OF the Bukowina is only a
matter of hours.
The armies have lost their grip and
the series OF defeats has aroused anew
the disloyalty which was responsible
in the first place for the armies rout
Treason and Dcscrtton Rampant.
Treason and desertions are again
menacing the nations armed forces
dispatches from the front assert. The
Improvement in morale was only tenn
porary.
The military disasters and the cab
met troubles have undone whatever
good Kornilofr's stern measures ac-
com plished.
Russia had one hope for rehabili-
,tatton before complete disaster over
whelms her. That is the Pan Rus
sian congress. which Is scheduled to
convene at~zssoscow tomorrow and out
of which may grow government
with firm purpose and a steady
hand.
The main peril Is not so much the
cabinet disorders as the disintegra-
ton of the military front. Dispatches
from Petrograd make It clear that the
resignation of the kerensky cabinet
and the later withdrawal OF all but
two of the resignations--those of
Ministers Tchernof and Terestchenko
was not due to lack OF support OF the
people. The main reasons was the
charges OF treasons which had been
made against NJ. Tchernoff. the So
cialist minister of agriculture. He
was accused of being connected with
the German general staff, but no hint
of proof OF the charges has been
forthcoming. He resigned in order
TO defend his character against the
attacks. 81
