!, Two free throws were made by
Grace and neat pass from Holm
berg to Hahn Melted the first field
goal. A free throw by Nelson and a
basket by Anderson for Dassel gave
the visitors their three points. The
score at the end of the second period
was 12-11 in Dassel's favor altho
from the sec6nd half to the end of
the contest the ball was almost con-
stantly down near the Willmar bas-
ket. Some hard luck in shooting by
Willmar robbed the locals Of a much
larger figure. It is true that Dassel
experienced some poor luck but her
attempts at the basket were of the
unaimed type and from a half to one
third floor distance. Her teamwork
could have been improved but the To-
cal guards objected. In the fourth
period the score stood 1915 in Will
mars favor with but four minutes to
play and flip of the coin could have
decided the game. Johnson who sub
stituted for Holmberg brot new spirit
and hope by throwing in neat field
goal Then Hahn toed the mark and
pulled the game out of the fire by
banking in two neat goals which
placed Willmar out of danger. Short
ty after this the blast of the whistle
and the pendemonium of the crowd
broke loose. The Dassel men took
their defeat with smile and a truly

The game had attracted a full pack

come to aid the locals in clearing the
path to the District championship.
Enthusiasm ran high. To see crowd

contest. The teams were equally

Girls Game

This game was an easy victory for
the locals. Ruby Bitterness found
very little trouble in rolling in bas-
ket now and then and made eleven
points of her teams score Christian,
at center, made splendid record for
her first game this season. Lund-
quist and Monson were credited with
one and two baskets respectively. The
only basket made by the opposition
was by Baden except the two points
made by the free throw route. Carl
son and Pankake for Dassel played
strong roles at guard positions and
blocked effectively at times repeated
attempts and threats of Willmar to
score. Pearl Johnson and Anna Over
gard held the Dassel forwards penned
up, Pearl having the difficult task of
besieging the most robust athlete on
the floor. Dassels center did not
play up to her usual form and the
team work with the forwards was
weak and sluggish. The final score
was 17-4 in Willmar's favor.

q lot Of young fellows believe there is

AGAIN
URGED TO REDUCE
COTTON ACREAGE

Thomas b. King. director Of the Cot
ton Acreage Committee Of Memphis,
Tennessee, an organization perfected
to curtail cotton acreage next sea
son has issued Il letter TO the press
Of the cotton belt asking %co-operat-
ion in this work and furnishing a set
of resolutions passed me adopted by
the Memphis Chamber of Commerce at
a recent meeting.
The organization not only advocates
a reduced acreage, but urges divcrsili-
cation, and points out the advantage
of every farmer raising his living
on the farm and planting cotton as
u side line.
Following are the resolutions passed
at the meeting in November.
WHEREAS, during this year much
diversified farming was practiced IN
the Southern States, resulting in great
er crops Of grain, food and feed stuffs
than has ever been grown in said
territory before, and
"WHEREAS, this result was I'M
doubtedly brought about by the CO.
operative efforts of the farmers and
business interests Of the entire ter
ritory in which cotton is grown; and
WHEREAS, we believe the per-
manent prosperity of this section de-
ponds on the same program of safe
and sane farming for the year 1922,
and.
WHEREAS, the financial condi-
ton of Europe is now and must be
for some time to come, in Il chaotic
condition, it is unwise agriculturally
Tor the cotton growers Of the South TO
produce more cotton than the world
in its present crippled industrial and
financial condition can use and pay
for; and,
WHEREAS, the boil wecvil has
spread over practically all Of the cot
ton area, and it is very hazardous fol
my farmer to rely upon the growing
of cotton in as large acreage as here
%tofore;
"NOW THEREFORE,, BE IT RE
SOLVED. that we urge the farmers
and business men of the South Il
make 4 united effort TO secure the fol
lowing results:
/. That the farmers and business
interests be urged to cooperate IL
planting an ample acreage of grain
food and other crops for the COMING
years;
.. THAT every farmer make an in
dependent home living by producing OF
his farm all home supplies, such a
the soil and climate will permit.
3. "That we earnestly appeal to M
cotton growers that the present pric'
of cotton be not permitted to temp
a disregard Of the rules of safe AM
SAINT farming and invite a return o
the disastrous conditions Of 192O-l92l
A.. That we recommend TO cottoi
growers that they follow the plan o
safe farming outlined at the Mem
phis Conference for cotton acreage re
duction and Investigation held DC
cember 1920.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED
That this cooperative movement TO
4 better farmingf is designed and ir
4 tended to represent and to have tn
! support OF the entire banking, CONNER
cial. industrial and agricultural II
~terests of the South, and TO this en-
we solicit and urge the active C
operation of all organizations repr'
senting the several interests"
