1T is expected that this Will be
a battle royal as both are strong
teams. Whichever team wins
this game has practically cinched

Should Sandstone win the dis
trict championship again this
year, it will be it's fourth trip
to Northfeld apd its third con-
secutive trip. This is Superin-
tendent Schwartz's third year at
Sandstone, also as coach Of the
team, and during that time Sand
stone has not lost one game on
