REDWOOD OUTPLAYS AND OUT

IA to 0 IN ARMISTICE DAY
GAME.
wild Rice)

Displaying unbeatable football the
Redwood Falls High aggregation of
pigskin tossers won a signal victory
over the classy Sleepy Eye eleven
Armistice Day on the local field.
With the day cold and raw the fight
ing warriors of Redwood slapped a
nifty count on their opponents. The
boys were unbeatable. A good crowd
for the day was on hand-$123.60
being taken in and a profit of $56.10
realized as expenses were $3.50.
With Capt. Manning on the side
lines in company with Herb Whittet,
both being crippled the local lads
went into the fray, determined to fight.
They did. The first quarter saw
Thomas Hosken, the Red Grange of
this section, chalk up his Oath touch
down. Previous to his counter Tom
got the ball on an off tackle and
piunging, squirming and using his
"berry" he tore off a 72 yard gain
before falling on the five yard line.
Sleepy Eye held this time as Corbett
was feeling out the strength of his
opponents line. When the next chance
came "Corb' sent Tom over for the
first counter, the try for point follow
ing a pass to Cole over the line MAX
ing the score TO.
This offering was enough to give
the boys the necessary kick for Sleepy
Eye simply could do nothing with our
forward wall Sleepy Eye could make
no yardage at all through the Red
wood line. Right here, folks, world
of credit most go to the Redwood line
"a fighting aggregation of boys who
receive little credit from the side
lines but who all season have given
the speediest backfield in the section
a chance to get going. They opened
UP gaps as big as a barn in the
Sleepy Eye line. After series OF
plunges Redwood worked the old oval
up again and Hosken crashed through
for his 25th touchdown. His try for
point was good. Score 14-0.
The second half saw Sleepy Eye
bracing up and putting up strong
game. They were however never in
a position to score while Redwood
continually threatened the Sleepy Eye
goal. The game ended without fur
ther scoring. Score 14-0.
The work of Wester at center for
Redwood was remarkable. "Bill' has
made few if any bad passes through
out the entire season.
The guards, Ben Jackson and Tiny
Byington and the tackles Englund and
Wallin and Laidlaw formed a wal
that was impregnable on defense and
opened gaping holes in Sleepy Eyes
line on the offensive.
The ends Cole and Schmid played

Redwood High
Cracks" St.
Peters Record
ST. PETERS OUTCLASSED IN
EVERY DEPARTMENT OF THE
GAME ON LOCAL FIELD SAT-
URDAY.
wild Rice)


st. Peter High arrived Saturday
with goodly crowd of supporters
to see their highly touted team
crush the local high school eleven.
They came confident of victory hav-
ing been previously undefeated with
a record of six games won and two
tied Something was amiss for
the dope went wrong and the St.
Peter boat hit snag and was sunk
beneath an avalanche of 35 points.
In other words folks, Redwood won
by the juicy count of $50.
The game opened with Hosken kick
ing into the wind and St. Peter re-
ceiving on their 10 yard line from
where they returned 10 yards. They
were successful in two sweeping end
runs before Redwood's outposts had
fathomed their interference. They
were then held for downs and forced
to punt. Redwood Immediately OPEN
ed driving attack carrying the ball
from their own 35 yard line for their
first touchdown of the game by
Hosken and his try for point was
good. Score TO. They again kick
ed into the wind but were unable to
score again when Hosken added an
other touchdown. Try for point fail
ed. Score 1870. The half ended.
The second half saw Redwood play
ing at their seasons best, showing a
powerful offensive and stubborn de-
fense. Suffice it to say that st. Peter
was completely demoralized. During
this half the Redwood line opened
Gaping holes in the ST. Peter for
ward wall enabling the local backs to
romp away for gains of from to 25
yards almost at will. Three more
touchdowns drop kick and two sue
cessful points after touchdowns re-
suited from their offensive efforts.
One of bright spots of this period was
Clarence Schmid's dash for touch
down after recovering st. Peter
tumble and pretty run of 45 yards.
st. Peter was outclassed in every
department of the game and their big
man Witte was stopped dead. Witte
is good man and capable of wonder
full work but he could make no ground
against Redwood's line.
The Redwood line was wonderful.
The ends Schmid and Cole played
remarkable game. Breaking up st.
Peters interference, tackling vicious
ly and sailing down under punts
Cole and Schmid established them
selves in the ends Hall of Fame.
"Tiny" Byington and Ben Jackson
at guard and Englund, Laidlaw and
Wallin swept St. Peter out Of their
way enabling the Redwood "backs"
to get away for consistent gains.

FORTY-TWO ENROLLMENTS
Is DISTRICTS TO REPORT.

The Annual Red Cross Roll Call in
Redwood Falls last week was the most
effective made here since the war
days. Headed by w. H. Gold, sixty
men and women enlisted to reach all
residents of the city and the surround
ing community and request their re-
enrolment in this great organization.
Mrs. j. B. Philbrick, the assistant
Roll Call Chairman and Secretary
Treasurer of the local Red Cross

tricts still to be heard from the
amount collected has reached $587. so.
The following report of memberships
is made by Mrs. Philbrick.
281 members at $1.O0
members at $500
So members at $500
members at $1,000
While a few of the canvasers in
the city have not yet made returns
the majority of the fifteen districts
still to be heard from are in the
country where, because of farm work,
the canvas has been delayed. North
Redwood which is now a part of the
local branch has not yet reported.
1t is anticipated that between seven
and eight hundred dollars will be
raised before the campaign closes
Thanksgiving Day. The results are
exceedingly gratifying to Mr.. Gold
and his corps Of workers and of great
satisfaction to all interested in seeing
the wonderful Peace Time program
of the Redwood Red Cross carried
,,.J hoc
been for the past several years.
Just before going to press it is
learned that C. o. Gilfillan of Paxton

Annual Meeting
of Stockholders
Held Thursday
REPORTS MADE OF BUSINESS
OF SOCIETY; F. G. HUBBARD.
PRES, RESIGNS AND r. STEM
SVAD TAKES PAIGE.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Redwood County Agri-
culture Society was held at the court
house last Thursday afternoon with
only twenty-one of it's more than two
hundred stockholders present. F. G.
Hubbard, president of the Board
presided. Reports of the president,
secretary and treasurer were import
ant features of the business session.
There was also considerable discus
sion of plans and improvements for
the future.
F. G. Hubbard who has served one
year of his three year term, resigned
as member of the Board of Directors
and Rud Stensvad was elected to fill
the unexpired term. Later when the
directors organized Mr.. Stensvad was
elected president in Mr.. Hubbard's
place. The other officers and direc-
tors remain the same, Charles Lusch-
er, A. P. Rams and Thos. Hoskins
whose terms expired this year being
reelected to succeed themselves
George Phillips was reelected vice
president, w. A. Hauck secretary and
c. A. Luscher treasurer. Mr.. Stem
svad is no novice in the work of
president, having served in that cap
acity for several years prior to Mr..
Hubbard's election.
The secretary's report was present
ed in printed form and those stock
holders who did not receive a copy
will be given one upon application to
Mr.. Hauck. This report shows many
interesting items and it also shows the
magnitude to which the business of
managing the fair has grown. In all
departments there was a distinct gain
over 1923.
Under the head of receipts it is
shown that the entire receipts for the
year just past were $18,896.36 of
which 3,461.1S were collected prior
to the fair from the rental of the
grounds for the race meet and other
purposes and from the receipt of pre-
MUM money from both the county
and the state. The disbursements
total amounts to $18,735.52 which
leaves only very small balance on
hand. However the apportionment
of premium money for 1924 is still to
be received and through the activity
of A. P. Rams, there has been a sale
of number of shares of stock in the
past two weeks, so that the treasury
is not so depleted as appears from
the report.
1t is also extremely gratifying that
the dance pavilion which was last
year installed in the stock pavilion at
considerable expense, has entirely paid
for itself within the period since it's
building and next year returns from
this building will be velvet. This
also is due in large measure to the
careful and thrifty management of
Mr.. Rams who has been in charge for
that period.
Concerning the grandstand which
was enlarged and otherwise improved
this year Secretary Hauck makes the
following report:
The general report shows that 1897
were made by the secretary, these of
course not including the school entries
nor the entries in the boys and girls
club work which are handled through
the offices of the superintendent of
county schools and the county agent.
Of these the largest number in any

They All Want
TO Be the Next
House Speaker
BI-ANNUAL RACE FOR SPEAK
ERSHIP OF HOUSE OF REPRE-
SENTATIvES OFF TO RUNNING
START.

A Dawes commission may be need
ed to decide the speakership of the
Minnesota House Of Representatives,
according to the present lineup, with
each candidate undecided on the
amoustxof reparations he will pay.
When check-up of the situation
was made Saturday night, it was
disclosed that one candidate not pre-
viously mentioned herein has announc-
ed his withdrawal while the other
nine stand pat.
According to one recognized au-
thority on legislative affairs, the
standing of the contestants is about
as follows:
Oscar A. Swenson, 25 pledged votes;
Otto Neuman, Is; R. w. Hitchcock,
IL; j. R. Sweitzer, 10.
Let the totals of the others be
represented by X, signifying unknown
quantity, as follows: John A. John
son, Preston; ]. N. Johnson, Hills;
Joseph A. Quinn, Menagha; F. A.
Green and John E. Odegaard.
Representative j. B. Gislason of
Minneota, frequently mentioned the
past week as a speakership entrant,
announced Saturday that he will not
enter the race.
"There are 131 members of the
House," Representative Gislason said.
with me out of the race, it means
that there will be only 130 candidates
left"
Representatives Swenson, Hitch
cock and Nehman had established
headquarters at the St. Frances hotel
up to Saturday night while Repre-
sentative Sweitzer was carrying on
his campaign from his office in St.
Paul.
Two possibilities were being dis
cussed among members of the House
who were not candidates. These
were:
FIRST-That all the candidates
will attend a conference and
pirants. They will meet around
1 table, lay their cards face up
wards and the two highest will
go to the caucus.
SECOND-That Governor-elect
Theodore Christianson, anxious
that there shall be no friction in
the House, may offer his services
as arbiter, or that he may under
take to name the speaker himself.
So far he has carefully avoided
the fray.
In the Swenson ranks it was said
that if Swenson is unable to win
the speakership he will demand the
chairmanship of the committee on
appropriations. However, Swenson
admittedly is in the lead, his cam
paign having been in progress since
State Fair week. 1t also was said
Saturday that Neuman would be sat
isfied with the chairmanship of ap-
preparations if unable to land the
speakership.
Representative Sweitzer is said to
have eight pledged votes in Ramsay
county and two in other districts.
He is mentioned as head of the COM
mittee on highways, position any
of the other speakership entrants
would be glad to promise him in ex-
change for his votes. He always has
been closely identified with the good
roads movement in Minnesota
