PERSON WINNER IN
WRESTLING MATCH
Contest Between Heavy
weights at Duquette
Gives Many Thrills.

In the fastest wrestling match
ever staged at Duquette Chris
Person of Duluth, won over |. A.
Johnson of st. Paul, after gain
ing the second fall with flying
hold which disabled Johnson to
return for the final fall.
Johnson secured the first fall
in thirty-seven minutes with a
double wrist lock. Person won
the second fall in seven minutes
with a flying double arm lock
from which Johnson tore a liga-
ment in his back and had to be
carried from the mat, unable To
return.
The match was very fast and
clean throughout and kept the
crowd on their feet most of the
time with thrills. Several times
Johnson tried to force his oppo-
nent to the mat with his super
Tor strength, but Person with his
skill and speed managed to get
out of the grip.
After the match Johnson chal-
lenged Person for a return match
the winner to take the long
end of the purse. Person ac-
cepted the challenge and said he
was willing to meet Johnson at
an early date at any place.
The Stag Club which had ar
ranged this match was so well
pleased with the clean and fast
performance that they are now
seeking a return match to be
staged at Duquette or Barnum.

OwWdShinl3tML Letter
o. " PDaley

Washington, Nov. 19.-0ne of
the cheapest things in Washing
ton today is advice. President
Coolidge is getting more advice
than any individual in the coun-
try as a result of his selection by
the American people for the
Presidency. It is characteristic
of the average American citizen
to give advice by the bucket but
to take it by the grain. Appar-
emily Mr.. Coolidge is a calm and
cautious man and has his own
way of determining the true
course for the Administration.
Every day the list of we'll
meaning, though sometimes self
ish, advisors who call at the
White House grows, until it may
be necessary to call a halt. The
job of being President with all
its honors is by no means a
sinecure. Just now the President
is obliged to receive long lines of
hand-shakers and well wishers.
The majority of these visitors
want to tell him how to run the
Government according to their
own ideas. Courtesy requires
that the Chief Executive shall
listen patiently to this advice.
His better Judgment tells him to
weigh his words and actions

carefully. In his appointments
for the new Cabinet and other
Government positions he must
take precaution to avoid natural
antagonisms. The various groups
who claim that they supported
him at the polls and their de-
mand for rewards in Federal
patronage, must be handled with
care. The President has made it
clear that he intends to make his
appointments with a view to the
best man qualified for the job
and not for their influence with
various groups in social and
political life. In other words. Mr.,
Coolidge has made it known that
he conceive his duty as national

social or political influence. This
policy as indicated at the White
House, may prove a shock to
some groups who assumed that
the victory of Mr.. Coolidge would
make their crowd a direct bene-

and interests are striving for Of

ident's job at this time doubly

itself be a more fitting tribute to
his memory than any statue or
other memorial which money can
buy. Perhaps no man who has
ever become prominent in the

fully exemplified. as did Senator

advancement which lie in the

GOOD BASKET BALL
GAME BY LOCALS

The basket ball season in
Askov was opened at the d. B.
S. hall Monday evening when the
so-called "Bearcats" and Wild
cats" met for the first game of
the season. The attendance was
good and the crowd apparently
enjoyed the game judging from
the loud applause. Both sides
had their rooters and they were
faithful throughout the game.
C. M. Nelson acted as referee
and his work was very satisfac-
tory to both teams as well as the
audience. Although ten person
ais were called on the players it
was clean fight and free from
any excessive roughness.
The "Bearcats" had a good lead
in the first half-the score being
8 to 2 in their favor. Realizing
the honor was at stake the Wild
cats" knuckled right down to
business and at the end of the
third quarter had reversed the
score to being IL to 8 in their
favor. In the final quarter each
side made a field basket so the
game ended Is to 10 in favor of
the Wildcats.
Some argued that the third
quarter when the Wildcats"
were rolling up their winning
points, was prolonged to twice
its regular length. Henry
Simonsgaard was timekeeper and
it appears that the players were
so interested in the game that
they could not hear him holler
time up.
The lineup of the two teams
was as follows:
"Bearcats
Sigurd Lunde, center.
Clarence Morgensen, forward.
Emery Nedegaard. forward.
Clifford Degerstrom. guard.

GOOD PROGRAM
GIVEN BY SOKOLS
Splendid Array of Athletic
Exercises Shown at
Pine City.

Inc exniDltlOn OF 6InfetlcS Dy
the Sokol socities of st. Paul and
Denham. at the Armory In Pine
City Sunday was an excellent one
and was attended by a good sized
crowd. chiefly the Czech people
in that community.
All those taking part in the
exhibition marched to the center
of the spacious building where
they remained while few short
talks were given before the ex-
ercises were commenced.
Joseph Oliverus Of Pine City,
called upon the various speakers
who all but Louis A. Hlavacek
spoke in the Czech language.
Joseph Suk. the general mer-
chant of Denham. spoke Of the
ideals of the Sokol society, stat
ing that it is not enough to be
a member and pay dues but that
each member must be q part Of
the society in body and soul. He
was followed by Mr.. Smolik Of
st. Paul, Louis A. Hlavacek Of
Minneapolis, and Anton Trojan
Of St. Paul. president of the St.
Paul society.
Mr.. Hlavacek stated that the
Sokol union Of America has 25,-
600 members. It's purposes are
besides building up the body
physically TO give good programs,
lectures and entertainments; its
motto: a sound mind in a sound
body. Sokol means falcon in Eng
lish and the falcon bird with
dumbbells is the emblem of the
society. Mr.. Hlavacek said sta
tistics showed that 35 per cent
of the Americans were not ply
sically qualified when called into
service in the last war and
therefore much more physical ex-
ercising is needed. The Sokols
begin training the child at six
years.
Frank Drassal. supervisor and
physical director of the public
play grounds in St. Paul. led the
exercises which were carried out
in the following order:
/. Exercise by young girls
with rackets.
2. Calesthenics by "A married
and single women.
3. Aesthetic dance by Sylvia
Smolik Of st. Paul. 10 years old.
4. Exercises on parallel bars
by 20 men from both st. Paul and
Denham. Amongst those men
was Joe Zikan Of St. Paul, who
won the championship at the
Northwest Gymnastic Associa-
tion annual meeting held at the
Minnesota University about Is
years ago, and held the cham
pionship six years.
5. Calesthenics by a class of
IL young women. (This was d.
rected by Karel Chmelir of St.
Paul.
6. Aesthetic dance by Miss
Aubrecht of st. Paul. Is years.

Church Gets 100000.

Some years ago j. Godfrey
Grant, a native of Sweden, died
at Rockford, Ill, leaving an estate
of considerable value. His rela-
tives contested the will in which
he had bequeathed 100000 to
the Swedish Lutheran congrega-
ton of his home city, on the
ground that he was of unsound
mind when he formulated and
signed it. and the case ultimately
