]. B. TAYLOR DIES IN DEs MONIES
Remained Over from G. A. r. Eneamp-
ment for Visit with Brother

D. A. Taylor Of this city received
a telegram Sunday announcing the
death Of his father, ]. B. Taylor. The
end must have come suddenly for Mr..
Taylor had dropped card to his son
on Saturday saying he would be with
him in Oakes on Monday. Mr.. Taylor
had gone to the national G. A. R. en-,
camprhent several weeks ago and was
visiting there with his brother: Il
]. B. Taylor was one of the earliest
settlers Of Dickey county, settling be-
tween Glendale and Monango. There
he lived until he was elected county
treasurer, which Office he held four
years. He has also served as a men,
ber of the state normal and industrial
school board as we'll as on the COM
mission which had charge of the
Whitestone battlefield.
He was a veteran Of the Civil war,
and enjoyed the comradeship of the
old boys that he mingled with just last
month. He was a splendid citizen
as well as soldier, and his many
friends are grieved to hear of his TAX
ing away.
It is likely that "Uncle Joe" would
have made his home in Cakes this
winter with his son, as of late years
he has been passing around among
his children.
The remains were brought back to
his home at Glendale for burial.

LEGION STANDS PAT ON BONUS
Renewed Pledges to Fight for Dis
abled Voiced at New Orleans

Pledging renewed assurance to the
disabled veterans and asserting once
more it's position on the soldier bonus,
through its national commander, Han
ford MacNider, the American Legion
opened its fourth national convention
at New Orleans Monday.
Distinguished soldiers Of seven ma
tions, wearing visible evidence of the
sacrifices they had made in behalf Of
their countries, were on the platform
as guests Of the Legion. They were
delegates to the convention Of the In
terallied Veterans federation, which
had been in session for two days in
the southern city.
Clad in uniforms, civilian clothes,
and the costumes adopted by state
delegations, the veterans Of the world
war made merry, held impromptu
dances in the street and generally en-
joyed themselves Sunday night.
California, outstanding contestant
for the 1928 convention, arrived clad
in broad brimmed, black hats, red
shirts and knee boots, the costume Of
the forty-niners.
A dozen medleys, reminiscent Of the
war, floated through the hotel lobbies
Of New Orleans Sunday night. The
city resounded to the tramp Of young
mems feet-also the feet Of the young
women who served in the navy and
the army nurse corps during the war,
as we'll as the women, old and young,
who "kept the home fires burning
four and five years ago, and are in
New Orleans as delegates and visitors
to the convention Of the Legion Auxil-
iary, composed Of mothers, wives, sis
ters and daughters of world war vets.
A night Of excitement, dancing and
music had not decreased the enthus-
iasm Of the veterans and the women
folk, and during the band concert
which preceded the opening Of the con-
vention, the first session Of which was
attended by members Of the auxiliary,
there were frequent interruptions Of
hand clapping and cheering.

Hard Times Dance

The local M. w. A. lodge put on
another of its famous hard times
dances Tuesday evening and the large
crowd present proved that the COM
mittee in charge mas struck popular
chord. Tickets were sold at the nom-
inal price of so cents each, and then
those who were not attired in hard
times costumes were assessed small
fines by "Judge" Guy, who presided
over the kangaroo court. The total
cost of the evenings entertainment
did not exceed Is cents, fines and all,
and it was worth much more than
that. Music was furnished by Mrs.
Owen and Henry Schiesser, on the pi-
ano and violin. A ghost dance is
planned for Monday evening, Oct. 80.
Goblins n everything.

EAT HUMBLE PIE
Uakes Team Secures Sweet Revenge
for Defeats at Hands of Up
Staters Past Two Years
SOUTH ,DAKOTANs OUTCLAssED
Milnor Football Artists Scheduled for
i. Game Here Saturday

Last week was the biggest week in
the annals of the football history Of
Oakes high school. Not only did it
witness the chalking up of two more
victories for the Golden Tornado, !"
but one of these was win over Lis
bon, regarded thus far in the season
as a contender for the state cham
pionship. The other was one-sided
victory over Britton which nearly re-
suited in a casualty for the official
scorer, who almost contracted brain
storm trying to keep up with the
steady stream Of touchdowns and goal
kicks put over by Coach Wyttenbach's g
pigskin demons.
The Lisbon game was hastily ar
ranged affair for Discovery day, the
contest having been originally sched-
uled for later in the season. The Lis
bon team, remembering their 1000
victory of two years ago, and the $50
victory of last year, came with the ex-
pectation of another easy win. Their
over-confidence, coupled with a little
hard luck and the surprising discovery
that Captain Clark Smith is stepping
on the accelerator Of a real machine
this year, resulted in their returning
to the city on the Sheyenne in an en-
tirely different frame of mind than
that in which they came.
Lisbon met with some hard luck in
the first minute Of play that took the
heart out Of them. Oakes kicked off,
but such gale was blowing across
the field that Lisbon failed to Judge
the ball correctly and muffed the
catch. The ball rolled nearly to the
goal line before it stopped. On the
first scrimmage Lisbon again fumbled
and Frank Ankeny pounced upon the
oval and leaped across the goal line
for a touchdown.
A few minutes later, after the Wis
ritors had made one first down, the
Oakes stone wall line stiffened and
held, and Lisbon was forced to punt.
Bert Hazel ran the ball back 40 yards
before he was finally downed, Guy
Booth and Pat Guy plowed through
the line for several good gains, a for
ward pass to Blazer netted Is yards
more, and then Ed Hazel went over
for second touchdown. Despite the
high wind, he succeeded in kicking
the goal, making the score 1870.
The locals again kicked of, Lisbon
muffing the catch, and Oakes recover
ed, Ed Hazel falling on the ball. Bert
Hazel, Booth and Guy again alternated
in advancing the ball, until q short
forward pass over the goal line caught
Lisbon of their guard, making the
score 1910.
In the second quarter Lisbon stiff
fened, and several times punts were
exchanged before the Hazel brothers
started down the line, taking turns

Townsend of the 1924 freshmen and
thought to have the best chance to make
the first string staff.
Aside from the dearth of pitchers, the
Princeton team appears to be progress
ing in good shape The outfield prom
ises to be exceptionally strong. with
three veterans holding down positions.
Chief of these is Captain Tommy Nc
Namara, a regular for the past two
years, and a hard hitter. His mates in
the outfield will probably be Bill Nc
Ilvaine, also a two years veteran. and
Johnny German or Botting. both of
whom took part in most of the contests
last spring. Botting may get the as
slgnment for right field, In which case
German may be transferred TO third.
Two of last years regulars form a
nucleus for the infield-MacPnee at sec
ond and Berg at short. Both are clean
fielders, while the former is also the
possessor of a healthy batting average
for his entire career If German goes
to third, first base will alone be open.
Bud Weiser and Gotschalk. both sub
stitutes last spring, are possibilities for
this place, and there Is also the chance
that Captain Mcnamara may be moved
In from left field.
The graduation last June of Captain
Fisher has left a gap behind the plate,
with no very experienced catcEers avail
able. The Job looks as IL 1t will be cap
tured by Bob Stinson. who caught on his
freshman nine and was f:rse substitute
iastyear
The probable lineup of the varsity IS:
German. third base: Botting. right field !;
MacPhee, second base McIlvaine. center

son, catcher; Berg. shortstop; Weiser.
