BIG CROWD AT RACE

One of the largest crowds that has
ever attended a sports event in this
city gathered on short notice at the
Driving Association race track last
Sunday afternoon to witness a race
between stock cars from two local
garages.
Herm. Halsted, of the Jensen &
Halsted firm, drove a Nash touring
car, and Bert Poulet, of Minneapolis,
drove an Elgin touring car from the
Weiss garage.
A preliminary mile was run by each
car, against time, to determine which
would have the poll. Halsted's time
for the mile was 1:25, and he won the
coveted position by margin of Is
seconds.
The racers were given a flying
start" in the main event, and immed-
lately after crossing the starting line
Halsted dashed into a formidable
lead, which he held throughout the
four miles.

NEAR EAST RELIEF APPEAL

AS Christmas time approaches |
hope that every club, every organize
ton in our community will do some
thing for the starving children of the
East. Let an organization take it
upon itself to support a child for one
year or a portion OF year. 1t talks
$50 just to feed child for one year.
There are $50 orphanages filled to the
limit, besides the thousands outside
the buildings to be fed.
The situation in the Causases is
terrible. Now not only the refugees
but the local inhabitants are in a
desperate condition.
Let us do what we can to help these
war stricken people. Ninety-iive per
cent of all money sent is used for the
needy. The five per cent goes for ov-
erhead expense.
None of the money collected by the
Digest goes to these people. That all
goes to Europe. If fate makes us de-
eide which we VIII help, our friends
or our enemies, it must be our friends
Besides the needs of the European
children cannot be compared in inten-
sity with those of the Near East. For
the most part the people of Europe
were not driven from their homes
and everything destroyed. They were
left in possession of their native land,
yielding more or less Of the usual food
supply.
Take your money to your local bank
and they will send it to Walter Kas-
ten, First National Bank, Milwaukee
At River Falls it is the First Nation
al Bank.

LOSE FIRST GAME
advertisement.

The local high school basketball
quintet lost it's first game of the sea-
con to the Clear Lake team at that
city Friday by score of % to Is.
Although our boys outplayed their
opponents and had possession of the
ball two-thirds of the time, the low
ceiling and the slippery dance floor
of Clear Lakes 10x14-ft. city hall
proved too great a handicap for Riv-
err Falls.
The game started with rush, and
although Clear Lake scored the first
basket, River Falls was soon leading
by an SO score. 1t was Clear Lakes
might on" however, and when they
began making the impossible" shots
we were soon left on the short end OF
the score.
Two of the opponents were detail
ed to guard Johnson, and the star To-
cal forward was able to cage only one
field goal and, handicapped by the low
ceiling, he scored only two of his six
chances at free throws.
Other point getters for the Falls
were Moline, 3 baskets, Sansburn, 8
baskets; Follansbee, one basket.
Although Parr, at guard, did not
score, he repeatedly broke up the OPP
ponents' offense and recovered the
ball for his teammates. McKinnor
and Savage played about five minutes
each.
Clear Lake is scheduled to play in
the local gym. the latter par of JAN
uary, and the local team is deter
mined that the sting of defeat will be
sharply felt in their opponents squad
at that time.
