LUTHER LOSES
To UPPER IOWA
Lost a Hard Luck Game 5. NaS
At Fayette, by a Score OF
10 10 o. 9
LUTHER WAS MINUS II.
SEVEN REGULAR PLAnS
LDsher Goes to Nofthfield Next Mon
day for Game With
st. Olaf.

Luther made her average for the
season in football 800 by losing to
Upper Iowa at Fsyette', last Satur-
day, the score at the esd of the frame
standing 10 to o. The score makes
the game appear quite one sided,
ut excepting that one important
thing,4 the sc9re, Luther had the
game jjust about her own way as
the followingi figures will show. Lu-
ther advanced the ball 41O yards in
the course of the game by means of
runs and forward passes while Up
per IoEa's total was an even 200
yards Luther made first downs II
times while Upper Iowa made them
II. Luther completed 10 forward
passes while Upper Iowa completed
four. Upper Iowa overcame Luther's
large advantage in distance by inter-
cepting two forward passes at criti-
cal times and getting the break on
two fumbles. Luther advanced the
ball twice to their opponents four
yard line, once to lose it on a fun
bic and once to have the whistle an
nounce the end of the game before
another play could be tried. Again
on Upper Iowa's twelve yard line
Buck Larsen lost the ball after a
run around right end when the force
of the Upper Iowa tackle threw the
ball out of his hands sending it un-
der the fence into the crowd.
Luther's offense was grently weak
ened by the absence of the Orwell
brothers, Jimmy Westby, and George
Peterson, all of whom are still under
hospital orders. The line likewise
felt the loss of Justin Iverson and
Bob Schjeldahl However, the men
in their positions played good foot
ball, Johnny Duckstad and Moe at
full tearing the Upper Iowa line at
will. Lawrene Qualley and Mic Otte
took turns at right half, and gained
consistently. However, Buck Larsen
at quarter and Witt Sperati at left
half starred in the backfield. Witt
Sperati gained ground practically ev-
cry time he CARED the ball and pick
ed five of Bucks passes out of the
air, one for 81 yards just as the
game ended, placing the ball on the
four yard line Hjelle at center
played even an improved game, get
ting into every play with telling re-
suits.

HUSBAND NOV. I
Great Farcial Comedy Will Appear
AT the Grand Opera House
Here Next Week.
CIT YOUR TICKETS
AT f. J. PARM4N'S
a Comedy Intended to Produce
Thoughtful Smile, the
I, Inward Enjoyment
Delicate Wit.

The managers of the Grand opera
house have booked another delights
full play. "Her Temporary Husband"
which will be seen at the Grand on
Nov. 7. Tickets for the popular
comedy can be secured at E. J. Par
mans Friday. The play recent
ls appeared at Sheboygan, Wis, and
the Press Telegram has the follow
ing to say about it:
"Her Temporary Husband" shown
at the Opera House last night by w.
L. Gaskell"s company of players
was greatly enjoyed, more particu-
larry during the second and third
acts. 1t is a farcial comedy and the
the players did not seem 10 get keyed
up to the spirit of farce until the
second act opened. After that they
gave the big audience many quiet
laughs. 1t is not a comedy that
draws out the loud guffaw, rather it
is intended to produce the thought
full smile, the quiet, inward enjoy
ment of delicate wit.
In the plot the comedy 5 not COM
plicated. A young woman to defeat
the purposes of will, influenced by
mistaken affection for a mercen-
airy attorney, marries a presumably
dying man in a sanitarium. Another
lover, unknown to the bride, is sub
stituted for the supposedly dying
groom, and eventually reveals HIM
self, gains the love of the tempor-
airy wife, defeats the ercenary lover
and makes the marriage permanent.
Theatregoers of Sheboygan en-
joyed the comedy the more because
of the presence of Leonard Lord,
previously seen as leading man of
stock companies, the best dramatic
schools in existence. Lord has youth
and splendid presence and well de-
veloped dramatic art. In the princi-
pal light comedy part of the farce
he was pronouncedly the outstand-
Ing personalitys.of the perfoTmance- :
Others of the company who stood
out prom nently were Arson Varney
as Judd, a Cocney sanital;um nurse;
Harold Isbell, as the mercenary
lawyer, a carefully sustained charac-
terization; Thomas Ryan, as the con-
spring physician; Evelyn Watson
as the bride and Iva Edmonson as
an attractive ingenue, not particu-
larly necessary to the plot but de-
cidedly satisfactory as a personality.
"Her Temporary Husband" was
presented with an attractive scenic
setting by company of well dress
ed, we'll bred players who do well
what they have to do and reveal
themselves as intensely human, fun
loving people.

Until then intensive efforts will be
made to inform the people as to the
provisions of the bill, and why its
approval is so keenly desired by the

cause this state had no war prof.
teers during the war like the east

want to merely put the proposition
before the voters and taxpayers in

and leave it to those who must pay
the bill by l to 2 mill tax increase
to say whether or not they will pay
Iowa veterans so cents day each,
with a maximum of $3.50 for the
time spent in uniform.
To date, no strong open oppoi-
ton has developed against the bill,
which was enacted by the Thirty
ninth General Assembly, and which
provides for 100000 bond issue,
payable over period of twenty
years. But it is known that many
who think taxes are alreads
much too high will vote mo, not be-
casuse they are against the veter-
ans but because they feel they can
not afford to pay out another nickel
in taxation, that retrenchment should
be the states policy. To this, a
Legionaire has Willingly answered,
Lets not start on the boys who
dug the trenches"
If the bill is passed it will mean
an average payment of 5000 to each
veteran who resided in Iowa who
was enlisted or inducted in the SER
vice, between Apr. 6, 1917, and Nov.

service was few days more than
13 months. Iowa sent 10000 men

BROOKHART AND
SOCIALISM
Nj. ID. Whitney. of Decorah, Receives
A Letter From Brother of
Col. Brookhart.
COL. BROOKHART
TELLS ABOUT MEETING
Col. Brookhart Was Not Delegate
And Did Not Attend the
Meeting.

The following letter was sent to
NJ. ID. Whitney, of Decorah, regard
ing the candidacy of Col. Smith w.
Brookhart and it is self explanatory:
Washington, Iowa,
Oct. 8, 1922.
Milton ID. Whitney,
Decorah, Iowa.
Dear Mr.. Whitney:
Your letter of the 9th inst. to Col.
Smith Brookhart is received, and
since he is away all of his time in
his campaign, / am doing the best
| can with his correspondence.
In regard to the meeting YOU
speak about, will give you briefly
all there is to it. In the first place,
this meeting was not a socialist or
radical meeting. 1t was called by
William H. Johnson, President of the
International Association of Machin-
lists, Martin f. Ryan, General Presi-
dent of Railway Carmen of Amer
lea, Warren S. Stone, Grand Presi-
dent of the Order of Railroad Tele-
graphers; Timothy Healy President
of International Brotherhood OF
STAY lry Firemen and Oilers, ana
l.. E. Sheppard, President of Rail-
way Conductors, and was called for
the very opposite purpose which Mr..
Herring claims for it, that is: 1t
was called to squelch the radicals in
labor and farm organizations. The
reports of the meeting show that
over thrifty farm and labor organic
zations were represented at the con-
ferenxa and Of the names Of about
one hundred and twenty-iiveI gSye'T
who attended the conference, there
appear to be five socialists. II was
not delegate convention, as ev-
erybody in the labor and farm or
ganizations were invited alike.
Second, Col. Brookhart was not a
delegate and did not attend the meet
ing. He was, however, in the east
attending the session of the National
Rifle Association, and on his way
home had date to meet j. X. Ho-
ward and also Dante M. Pierce In
Chicago. He met Howard first, took
lunch with him and spent most Of
his time with Howard. He then
went to the hotel where he was to
meet Pierce and Pierce had left
note that he was at this conference.
1t was then nearly train time and
Col. Brookhart went to the confer
ence to find Pierce, got there few
minutes before the conference ad-
journed and as soon as he found
Pierce they left for the train. That
| is all the connection he had with
the conference. However, the con-
ference was one held and conducted
entirely by the heads of the big
labor and farm organizations of the
country. Col. Brookhart does not
know and never met any of the men
YOU suggest, and never had any cor
respondence with any of them; never
heard a socialist lecture nor attend
ed socialist meeting or read
book on socialism In his life. 10
accuse him of being socialist for
attending this meeting is just about
as sensible as it would be to accuse
him of being a negro because ne
spoke TO the colored people in Des
Moines recently.
Yours truly,
| T. RROOKHART.

New York, Nov. 14.-Neither
Harvard nor Princeton could have
gotten near enough to the others
goal line to score Saturday had it
not been for NUTS or fumbles on
the part Of the opponents. Does
this mean that our big teams are
incapable Of clean handling of the
bal throughout the game? Does it
mean that time is wasted on devel-
oping anything but a kicking
game? . ..-.-
To those who have seen Michi-
gan, Cornell, Washington & Jeffer-
son and Lafayette play this season,
such an inference seems silly. But
the present football season has de-
veloped a great discussion as to
tactics. and the belief is strong to-
day in some quarters that other
big games will be lost and won on
NUTS and fumbles.
Many are asking why Princeton
did not show more than she did in
the Harvard game. To this others
reply that this is Princeton's
method"
Don't force your winning game
keep kicking the ball back and
wait for the breaks" is the princi-
pie they say was followed and this
has worked time and again in the
past. A tumble at a critical mo-
ment on the Army's six-yard line
probably cost Notre Dame a vic
tory over West Point Saturday as
the game resulted in scoreless
tie.

Ever since Mike knocked out
Henry in a couple of rounds. the
South Chicagoan and his manager,
Jack O'Keefe, kept insisting upon a
return engagement O'Keefe claim
ed a lucky punch was responsible
for Henry's defeat, So the chance
was given Henry again. Last night
Mike rocked Bill times too numer-

out. Henry by his gameness wealth
