.BEMlDQ HIGH TO PLAY :.
AT F0SSTON THURSDAY

Bemidji high school will open the
1922 football season this Thursday
when the team journeys to Fosston
to play that high school eleven as
a feature attraction at the fair being
staged there this week. These two
teams did not meet last year and
the Bemidji coaches have little dope
as to what kind of a team Fosston
boasts this year. Nevertheless, Be-
midi expects to win and will go
there with that intention.
Regular practice has been held
every afternoon and the team is fast
being whipped into shape for busy
football season, which will include
games with the best teams in this
section of the state. Frank Kovach,
athletic director this year, will ac-
company the team to Fosston.
No announcement has been made
concerning the lineup for the open
ing game, since it is expected that
practically all of the players will be
given an opportunity to show what
they have. With seven of last years
men out again this year, the Bemidji
team promises to make a good show
ing throughout the entire season. g

RAINIER AUTHORITIES q
SHOT; SEARCH STARTED

According to Geographic communi-
cation to local authorities today, a
sheriff and police officer at Rainier,
Kooehiching county, were shot last
night byfa man named Joe Bush.
The message does not state whether
or not the men were killed nor does
it state the names Of the men in
question. Further information is ex-
:pected shortly from the ~sheriff's
office at international Falls.
The message sent here was signed
by F. Jevene, county attorney OF
Koochiching county and urged local
authorities to assist in apprehend-
ing Joe Bush, the man alleged to
have done the shooting.
Deputy sheriff J. E. Cahill OF Be-
midi reports that he was talking
with Sheriff Hugh Van ~Ettan of In
ternational Falls last night about z
o'clock over the telephone. Never
the less there is every indication that
Mr.. Van Ettan was one OF the two
victims One reason for this belief
is that Mr. Van Eettan had anyways
kept the sheriff7s office here in
formed concerning such matters.
