Editor of Baudette Region
, Receives Promises Of Able
Support in County
NOONAN KNOWS "ROPES"
AND MOST OF MEMBERS
Declares Filing Is Result of a
Desire to Do Something
Worth While for County

> w. r. Noonan has filed as candl-
date for member OF the house from
Beltrami county, his filing having
been received today BY County Auait-
or A. D. Johnson. =,
Mr. Noonan spent day in Bemld-
il last week and interviewed large
number of men with regard to sup
porting him, should he decide to
file. He advises that he has received
the most encouraging support from
many factions, which, together wlth
the splendid endorsement he has been
pledged from the north end OF the
county, should assure him Of election.
In his announcement in last week 5
Baudette Region he has the follow
ing to say:
''This afternoon the editor Of the
Region filed for the position Of rep
resentative in the Minnesota legisla-
ture. This action was taken after
much consideration, and after look
ing into the situation in the entire
county. It was arrived at only after
offers Of support came from both this
section and the southern part Of the
county.
1.-THE decision to enter the race for
the house position was made because
of the fact that the writer spent two
sessions in that body and knows the
"ropes" much better than in the sem
ate. Practically 100 of the 131 men,
all likelihood, and personal ac-
quaintance with them is Of consider
bers of the last:housc will lbe back in
able advantage.
"The decision to be candidate is
not a matter of personal ambition.
It is the result of desire to do
something worth while for the coun-
ty and to have hand in state legisla-
ton as whole. Later on / will go
into details concerning a platform
which | shope will meet with you,
approval. In the meantime all can
say is that will devote my best cf.
forts to the position should I be
elected.

day Shows What May Be
Expected This Week

In what proved to be a fine prac.
tice game for both teams, the bem'dJ'
Giants, former Company X basket
ball team, defeated local team 40
to 80 at the, new armory Saturday
night. A pickup team consented to
play the Giants, after the game with
the Crookston city team had been
cancelled on account Of the Crook
ston teams condition as the result
of ahe game with Thief River Falls
last Thursday night.
Those present, however, were fully
,aware of the fact that the Bcmidji
Giants now possess strong organlza-
ton, improved greatly by the tour
Just completed. The Giants allowed
the other boys to keep within fair
distance of their score but outside Of
that found no difficulty in scoring
with ease. The pickup team, how
ever, also put up a good game, show
ing good team work and floor work.
Both teams scored on several long,
clean shots. The close-in shots made
by the pickup team were largely the
result of the Giants willingly allow
ing their opponents to score. In all
it was a good practice game for both
teams.
The Giants have two hard games
ahead tlis week, the first with Thief
River Falls Wednesday night and the
second with Crookston, the latter
part of the week These two games
have been definitely scheduled for
the Bemidji floor, according to the
manager. Bemidji has met both
teams before this season, but since
those games The team has easily i'm.
proved 100 per cent and it is expect.
ed that both games this week will be
exceptionally close.
