MILWAUKEE, March 24-An all
day fight against the wood today re-
suited in only one change in the
doubles and singles events of the
tournament of the American Bowling
Congress.
Lostrander and r. Clayton of To-
ledo rolled into second place in the
two-man event when they totalled
1,2S1 on games of AS, AS and 391.
Lostrander had games of 201, 225 and
204 for a total of $40. and Clayton
turned in 651 on counts of 224. 220
and 1877
Jimmy Blouin, worlds champion
bowler, was a disappointment to the
fans, collecting only Las pins in the
nine games.

No. even critics who usually can
be depended upon to think with
their feet and see through frosted
eyeglasses could not find it in them
selves to hand FirpO even an outside
change against the champion at the
present time. So, since Rickard is
a heavy sugar promoter and not ii
Diker, he at once decided that the
time was by no means ripe for Firpo
to tackle the Manassa mauler.
VIII stick to Tex Rickard.
1t is told about town that kearns
broke the South American offer of
SI50.000 for Dempsey to fight in
South America as d side swipe at
Rickard. Not that there isn't more
truth than a lot Of people think in
the story that Buenos Aires mil
lionaires are interested in staging
Firpo- Dempsey battle in the Argen-
tine capital soon as possible. Only
as things stand, Kearns, Dempsey and
company figure to make much more
money sticking by Rickard than in
trotting off to South America
Just the same, Dempsey is getting
restive. He has got to fight SOME
body soon, not only because of the
money interest, but because rust ac-
cumulates upon an idle champion.

Firpo Must Get Experience.
Rickard now iS determined thai
Firpo shall have lots of experience
before he puts him on as one Of the
topliners in an international title
fight. He had selected Capt Bob
Roper, had indeed wired ID Roper liz
Portland, Me. But the captain had
no sooner received the dispatch than
he went up against jeff smith, the
travelling walloper from Jersey. and
was materially outpointed. according
to all reports. So "out" for Roper
Jack Renault is the likeliest pros
pect ana probably viii he signed II
he gets over the idea that he can
make d million by fighting Harry
Wills in Canada. In any event Firpu

There is every reason TO believe
that the advance guard of the perch
family are now in District waters,
and that a few warm days Will cause
them to take bait. For this purpose
garden worms. bloodwarms and small
minnows will prove very attractive
to them. The water OF the river still
is badly discolored but is clearing.
The coming week should prove in
teresting TO anglers.
The Maryland State Conservation
Commission has planted millions Of
brook. rainbow and brown trout in
its fresh water streams and branch es
in Allegany, Baltimore, Carroll. Anne
Arundel, Frederick, Garrett, Washing
ton and Hartford counties.
Some idea of the extensive work
being done by the commission in re-
stocking streams with fish of COM
mercial varieties may be gained from
the totals shown in the annual re-
port of the commission. which has
just been issued. Yellow perch fry
to the number of 402.012.000 were
liberated, and 406 0SO. 600 white perch.
15,560,000 shad, $4,000 striped bass
or rock, and 3,096.0OO pike were set
free.
If the conditions of the streams
where these young fish were placed
is good-that is. if the water is clean
and contains the elements necessary
to fish life-it will not be very long
before anglers may be rewarded with
surprising catches.

man arrested for speeding when
he didn't deserve to be, who was
hauled before a justice and fined for
the pecuniary benefit of the arresting
officer and the court. Such victim
is not likely to prove a good adver-
tisement. He is likely to advise his
friends to stay away from Minnesota,
or at any rate from the neighborhood
where he was so badly treated. This
sorry practice Of making arrests for
the sake of the fees is perhaps not
very common in Minnesota. But it
ought not to be permitted at all. An
ether touring season must elapse be-
fore the Legislature can take action.

the advantage not only of the State,

Current taxes collected by County

extending from June to Nov. 1, total
$543,285 1T, it was determined Tues
day as the distribution of taxes was
being figured by County Auditor

The city of St. Cloud contributed
about one-third of the total of $178,-
391.17. Mr.. Kost announced Tues
day.
The total taxes collected at Sank
Centre amounted to $25,909.26;
Melrose, $12,655 .55.
County township residents contrib
uted $27O,936.2 toward the total
county tax. This amount is in ex-
cess of the total for the three cities,
which reached $216,956.17. Taxes
raised in the villages of Stearns
county amounted to $56,193,32, Mr..
Kost announced.
The tax total is in excess of that
for the same period a year ago. The

Legion Practices Economy
st. Paul, Mimi. Nov. 26.-When
the Legion State Finance and Execu-

week and adopted for 1924, every
opportunity to reduce expense was
taken advantage of, but while prac-
ticing general economy, ample funds
were allotted to the work of Ameri-
canization and the rehabilitation of
disabled comrades. The aim will be
to increase the influence for good of
The American Legion in Minnesota,
both in the community and as state
organization, according to Stafford
King, Department Adjutant.
"The 1924 budget of the Mime
sofa Legion is based on the conser-
vative estimate of $4,000 paid-up
members. Present indications point
to a much larger membership" ac-
cording to Adjutant King, who states
that at least 10000 members will be
enrolled, which will leave tidy sum
for the department sinking fund.
Prospects for an attractive year
we're never brighter-with the ma

calling for united support of all COM

A Trip to Winnipeg


When the 1925 state convention of
The Gopher Gang is held at Thief
River Falls-and T. R. F. Legionaires
say it will-two days will be devoted
to the business of the convention, and
On the third day all will climb aboard
special trains on an excursion to Win
nipeg, where Canadian buddies have
promised a royal welcome. This is
the plan of the Thief River Falls Post.
Not long ago several hundred North
ern Minnesota Legionaires joined the
Winnipeg excursion promoted by
Thief River Falls post, and have not
ceased to tell what jolly time they
had and what a warm reception their
Winnipeg war comrades gave them.
