the crowd PROTESTING wildly.
In about five minutes both re-
turned and the referee declared
there was six minutes more to

tie evening by contest in which
Co. l. Tigers defeated Derby in
the first free for all wrestling
match football game, and basket
ball game seen in Newport.
The visitors were about as well
acquainted, with basketball as a
band of eskimos.
They could do nothing with the
ball, so they resorted to pure
rough house. The local boys
could do nothing in the first half
against this band of Indians and
the score stood 3-2 in favor of the
Tigers.
The second half was even
rougher than the first, for Derby
sent in new contender for wrest-
ling honors as their cented was
too gentle. The Co. l. boys piled
up eleven more points.

Red Gross ROIIcaII
Begins Tomorrow

Mrs. Charles. T. Rice has beer
appointed chairman of the fifth an
nual roll call of the American Rec
necement Of the roll cali has been Sci
for tomorrow, Armistice day, and Il
be continued until Thanksgiving.
In Cascade county the American
Legion and the members of the Dis
abled Veterans of the World War are
cooperating with the Red Cross and
have taken charge of the roll call One
dollar is all that is asked from each
family and the greater part of this is
to be used in Cascade county.
Last year, according to the records
of the Cascade county chapter, a total
of S14, 900 was given to it by the ma
tional headquarters. The amount
turned in during the year was $4,000.
The same situation prevails this year,
according to Harriet Z. Carrier, sec
retary of the chapter, and with cou-
pie of months left for the work of
1921 the funds of Cascade county are
exhausted

in the roll call because of the work
done in their behalf by the Red Cross
since the demobilization of the army
and during their service period, it was
stated by the officers of the two or
ganizations. The officials Of the Red
Cross, not only in Cascade, but in 9TH
er counties, have done a great deal
toward satisfying the compensation
claims of former service men and the
members of the organizations are TAX
ing this opportunity to repay to some
extent the debt of gratitude owed the
national Red Cross, it was stated
The county chapter of the Red Cross
has the files of over 300 former ser
vice men who have claims for COM
pensation and through the use of these
files numerous cases which were de-
layed in settlement have been adjusted
through the assistance of Red Cross
officials. The records of the Cascade
county chapter show that former SER
vice men have received approximately
$150,000 for compensation through the
assistance of the Red Cross. In addi-
tion to this over a million dollars in
government insurance has been rein
stated. Employment has been secured
for former service men and others
during the past couple of years in
greater numbers than at any previous
period, according to Mrs. Carrier.
The members of the two organiza- +
tions are seeking the assistance of the +
public to the utmost capacity In their
work for the Red Cross and stated
that in their opinion the former SER
vice men and the public in general are
to the Red Cross for the work
it has done on behalf of the youth of
the nation during the war
Mrs. Rice will appoint her assist
ants for the work during the coming
week, and in view of the very excel
lent work accomplished by the ladies
in the roll call of last year, they will
likely be given an opportunity to re-
peat their success this year. Nearly
$500 was contributed last year in

Railroad Officials admitted that the
shipments during the four months
mentioned in 1921 were surprising
but that the figures spoke for them
selves and the claim Of the members
of the association that the shipments
in 1921 were much lower than during
the previous year were not based on
figures alone, but upon observation.
This members of the dealers associa-
tion claimed that ito was a common
sight TO observe at least so truekloads
of coal day being brought to Great
Falls from the Sand Coulee mines and
a proportionate amount from the Belt
mines.
BY far the larger amount of the

two can be made from Belt at the
most. Belt members Of the Cascade
