Seven Games
Are Scheduled
COACH HOFFERT AND MR.. GRE
VIER BUSY WHIPPING SQUAD
INTO FORM.

The Basketball Squad of the local
High School, captained by ART"
Manning has finished it's first week of
practice preparing for their winter
schedule. A total of thirty candidates
answered Coach Hoffert's call last
week and although most of these men
are entirely inexperienced the old
Redwood Fight" is already predomi-
mating and good team is almost
certainty.
So far their work has been entirely
along fundamental lines such as
passing, pivoting, stops and turns, to-
gether with some basket shooting.
Very little scrimmage is being indulg-
ed in SO far.
Among the likely looking candidates
are Captain Art Manning, guard and
"Irish" Englund guard and center of
last years team, and "Gil' Corbett,
"Doc" Cole, and Bill Wester, forwards
of last years squad. New men such
as "Tom" Hoskins, "Andy" Bobzin,
"Ish" Jueneman, Bob Keefe, Clarence
Schmid, "Swede" Wallin, Jack Wilson
and Bill Leavens are showing great
promise.
Entire new uniforms are awaiting
those men who are successful in MAX
ing the first squad of ten men. This
alone is no small factor in the deter
mination with which each man is
working. Apparently the. individual
slogan of each man is Il want the
honor of wearing one of those suits
"Why? ?" Because they are swell
and nifty"
Every man is under strict training
rules as prescribed by their coach any
violation of which means that the man
is dropped from the squad.
Coach Hoffert is ably assisted by
Mr. Crevier who has been placed in
charge of the second string men. This
is by no means small job because it
makes future basketball teams GER
tainty.
The schedule for the coming sea-
son has as yet not been entirely COM
pleted. To date the following games
have been arranged.
December -Wabasso at Wa
basso.
December 20th-Morgan at Red
wood Falls.
January 1Sth-Lamberton at Red
wood Falls.
February 1st- Sleepy Eye at Red
wood Falls.

Redding Cases
Attract Attention
HEARING ON RECEIVERSHIP
CASES CONTINUED BY JUDGE
OLSEN UNTIL JANUARY 14th.

Monday, Judge /. M. Olsen, at Red
wood Falls, continued the hearing in
the matter of the receiverships of the
Central Minnesota Loan and Invest

CO., both of Lamberton, and concerns
said TO have been organized in the
heyday of L. Redding former cashier
of the State bank of Lamberton.
Both concerns are defunct and
creditors were given an opportunity at
the hearing to prove their claims. At
the same time evidence was intro
duced for the purpose of showing
that the assets of the companies are
not sufficient to pay the creditors and
that an assessment of 100 per cent
would be necessary against stockhold-
ers to liquidate the indebtedness.
The hearing was continued as stat
ed above until January IA, next year.

AS 1t Stands Today.
And thus began one of the most
productive dairying and agricultural
counties Of southwestern Minnesota.
Throughout many periods OF adver-
sity, the early settlers and hundreds
of new ones fought their way. Against
many odds they made mother nature
Weld up her rich treasures to be turn
ed into cash through the agencies OF
men and machinery. Lands increased
in value slowly. Claims were staked
out and proved up as per the specl-
fications Of the government These
were thrifty lot and to them goes
much of the credit for the enviable
standing Redwood County has today.
It has been said that Minnesota
contains more natural resources than
any state in the union and, while the
statement seems strong one, care
full investigation will substantlate 1t.
The rapid development of the western
and southwestern portion of the state
with the steady expansion of business
everywhere makes it an inviting held
for business in all parts and for pee
pie of all classes of vocations.
To the farmer and home seeker the
opportunities are the greatest, he can
secure improved farms at reasonable
prices or unimproved lands at low
figure. In fact, there is concentrat-
ed movement on foot now in Redwood
County to induce farmers to come to
this section. 1t is generally conceed-
ed that the farms as they stand today
are far too large to be properly titled
and by cutting up these improved lands
into smaller farms it would make room
for approximately 1000 more farmer
families. Then by the adoption o.
scientific, diversified and intenslfled
farming methods, each farmer would
reap much larger harvest of cash
than he does under the system in
vogue today Minnesota today stands
fourth in agricultural production IN
the United States.

LAST PAYMENT TOl DEMPSEY WILL BE

Great Falls Banker Says Money For InStaIIment Will
 Be Raised

GREAT FALLS. Mont, June 27- (By Associated Press.) )-Expressing himself as hopeful that the $1O0OoO due Jack Dempsey as the final in- stallment of the s300,000 guarantee to fight Tom Gibbons July would be in sight tomorrow, George Stan ton. a Great Falls banker, declared tonight that the money would be raised without doubt before July ?, the date the amount is due Jack kearns. Dempseys manager.
 stanton, who advanced s5O.oOo to help make the payment of the sec ond S100,000 installment to Kearns ten days ago, said efforts were being made to have the money advanced by the Great Northern railroad If this proposal failed. the business men and bankers of Great Falls will be asked to advance it.
 We raised the second s1OO,000 for Dempsey without much effort and It is my belief that we will not have much trouble getting the final in stallment,' stanton said "All that we need to make the show a success is the final instailment for Demp- sey.
 Tt is my honest opinion that Mon tana will not allow this thing to re- suit in failure. The state would never live it down.
 With Manag ger kearnS in Shelby in the interest of the motion pictures and other financial entanglenrents. Dempsey continued training. boxing six rounds with trio of light spar ring partners and doing other exer- cises that made up a workout equiv alent to nine rounds
 The champion drove his fists at the flying punching bag for two rounds and then went through q round of shadow boxing before put ting on the gloves with Billy Wells. Dempsey tried hard to keep his punches in check and confine him self to defensive work, but several times the furious attack of the Brit ish welterweiEht drew counter blows
 Wells attacked from every angle. shooting swings and hooks with either hand as he tried to come up under Dempsey's guard, and resorted to jabbing uppercuts when swings failed.
 Much of the time Wells was suc- cessful in evading Dempseys right crosses and left hooks, but the title holder nailed him six times in the two rounds with solid punches to the chin and rights to the body which made him hang on for a few seconds.
 Dempsey attempted to make Wells lead, and catching him off balance would beat him to the punch with a sharp right cross to the chin, or shoot his right to the body.
 Two rounds with Lee Moore, a 126-pounder from Los Angeles. and another two rounds with Connie Curry, the Sioux City bantamweight, comprised the rest of Dempsey's boxing.
