COMPANY K COMPLETED
TWO WEEKS OF SUMMER
TRAINING HERE TODAY
Forenoon Was Spent in Clean
ing Up Grounds and Pack
ing Field Equipment

Following the cleaning up Of the
fair grounds by company K this
morning and the packing up of the
field equipment which was used dur
ing the encampment, Camp Colonel
Woolnough was disbanded shortly be-
fore noon. The entire forenoon was
spent in making ready to break
camp. The company was mustered
by Captain Jones Of the 10th infan-
try who has been with the company
for the past ten days as instructor
and Inspector.
His praise for the efforts shown by
the members in mastering all drills
was unlimited and his compliments to
the company were well deserved for
company K considering the length of
time which it has been drilling is now
in first class shape. It would without
a doubt hold its place with any other
company in the Sixth regiment.
Selected details made quick work
of taking down the tents today and
rolling them up in fine shape. Other
details followed up and put the
grounds in first class shape before
leaving. Still quicker work was done
by many Of the members when the
word ego" was sounded. Nearly all
the members are back in the "civies'
again this afternoon and are feeling
better than ever before. They say
there is nothing like the old civilian
suit after you have been out of it
for few days.
The company pay roll for the en-:
campment was signed last night and
taken to St. Paul by First Sergeant
Scherman, who was detailed here fol-
that purpose. Payment will probably
be received in time for the next drill
night.

CURTIS AND J0RDN0FF
WRETLE DRAW AT
EXHIBITION LAST NIGHT
Small Sized Attendance W.T.
nesses a Number of Excep-
tionally Good Matches

Before small attendance at tho
fair grounds last night, there was
held a number of very interesting
boxing and wrestling exhibitions, fol-
lowing a series Of exhibition drilio
performed by company K OF the Min
nesota National Guard.
Frank Mantell claimant of tho
welterweight championship Of Alber-
ia, weighing 145 pounds, met Jack
Young of Crosby, who weighs Ito
pounds, in a snappy six-round exhibi-
ton showing the manly art OF SELF
defense. The bout might be said to
be a draw under the circumstances
although Young was much the heav-
Ter Of the two. Both men landed sew
eral good blows, but at times it SEEM
ed as though the two were the closeet>
Of pals.
In preliminary boxing match.
Thomas Tibbetts, XII Pleasure club
boxer met Harry Peterson and dis
played thorough knowledge of the
boxing game. Both showed a game
fight, the one in fighting against 4
much faster opponent and the other
in giving his opponent fair chance.
l.. C. Curtis of Bemidji, who has
an enviable string Of mat victories,
was held without a fall for 80 min
utes by Charles Jordinoff Of Marble.
The latter played the defensive the
greater part of the time, but showed
remarkable ability at breaking and
escaping from holds, which at times,
seemed unbreakable. With the
wrestling to continue until fall
was recorded it is believed that Cur
tbs would have been the winner.
c. Curtis and Frank Smith staged
very good wrestling exhibition with
Curtis securing two falls in about
four minutes each.
Young Curtis took on two oppon-
ents as the first preliminary of the
exhibition and succeeded in downing
each in short order.
Dick Franklin, heavyweight boxer.
| refereed the matches and his work
was we'll carried out.
