Dad will visit the campus with Will
liam or Genevieve, as the case may
be. Dad will attend classes and ex-
pand with pride when his own rep
resentative in the ranks of higher
education gives just the right
answer in chemistry, history, or law.
Dad will peep into the laboratory
and tears will start from his eyes
when the acid fumes hit them. Dad
will eat in the Union and be pleas
antly astonished at the smallness of
the check. He will view spots of
campus interest and inspect the
rooms in which his own happen to
be quartered.
Following the establishment of
Mothers Day two years ago and its
mediate success, it dawned on uni
versity authorities that Dad might
be every bit as much interested in
the affairs of the state university
and the surroundings in which mem
bsrs of the family were studying,
as was mother. Dads Day was be-
gun, accordingly, and last years mi
tial venture brought several thous-
ands of the justly famous species to
The campus.
Invitations have been sent to the
father of every student now en-
rolled at the University of Mime
sofa, approximately 5000 in all, and
it is expected that a third, or at
least a quarter, or the total number
will take the time on October 81 to
tecome better acquainted with the
institution whose chief purpose is to
benefit the young people of the
state.
Arrangements are being made
whereby fathers who wish to attend
the Minnesota Wisconsin football
came may obtain tickets through
the agency of son or daughter. One
of the best games of the year is in
prospect on that date. There will
be dinner for the fathers at night
at which President Coffman will
speak.

(By Arnold Anderson.)
GILBERT TRIMS ELY
SCORE 3S TO o.

Last Saturday the Ely High
School football team journeyed TO
Gilbers and received the most crush
ing defeat in years. Undoubtedly
the Gilbert players still remember
ed the singing defeat they were
given by the home team last year
and consequently they were deter
mined to hand the locals severe
beating. They certainly accom-
plished their purpose, for the Ely
team was held scoreless, while they
garnered a total of 38 points.
During the first quarter the
Mesaba range team accumulated
three touchaowns. Terrific line
plunging brought two of the scores
while long pass was the cause OF
the other. On the other hand the
home team failing to gain through
the line was forced to resort to the
kicking game, thus giving Gilbert
frequent possession of the ball and
numerous opportunities to score.
& Neither Ely nor Gilbert accom-
plished anything noticeable during
the second quarter, for both teams
passed, fumbled, and kicked the bal
every once in while. Turula OF
Ely outdistanced Rasili of Gilbert in
the exchanging of punts.
Early in the second half Gilbert
began another march up the field
However the home team braced on
their 20 yard line and Gilbert tried
drop-kick. The kick went wide
of goal posts but Heikkila of Ely
in attempting to catch the bal
,fumblad and as quick as lightning q
Gilbert end swooped by, scooped uE
the ball and covered the 20 yards
for a touchdown. Not satisfied. anc
: the Ely team willing, Gilbert count
led twice more. Another pass hurled
by Basili diminutive Gilbert halt
netted another score. Soon after
by using the old standby, lins-buck'
ing, Gilbert was able to procure an,
other marker.
The eyes of the person, who lineo
I'D the Gikert football field must
have been little off, for the last
: white line slanted in such way
that there was about yards more
to go on one side of the field thar
on the other. Ely lost a touchdown
r because Of this mistake in lining thu
!. field and the funny thing about i
/: was, shat nobody noticed the mis-
; take until the game was over.
The lineup for the Ely team was
Mariani |. e., Gerzin l. t., Mayerl'
lg., Gavatos c., r. Maxi r. G.
Clough r. t., Jokinen r. c., Heikkili
q. b.. Dahl r. h. b., B. Maxi |. h. b.

Aurora Plays Here Tomorrow.

AufofN Idys TIere TUnfUrfOW.
This year Aurora has one of the
strongest teams in its history. 1t
has defeated both Virginia and
Gilbert by large scores and conse-
quently the dope is that Ely will
be plassered with a 40 to 0 reverse.
However many team has proven
that dope is not infallible and to-
morrow the home team is determin-
ed to prove it again. Ely High
School teams have always been in
the habit of trouncing those invad
ing teams which have champ-wor-
ship aspirations and as Aurora is
casting long eyes at the range and
district football championship the
locals are set on giving them their
first defeat of the season.

HUGHES HAPPY
OVER PARIS
RESULTS
Logan's Success on Repara-
tons Progress Praised at
State Department

Marked satisfaction was express
ed at the state Department today
over the progress being made ct
Paris in impressing upon the al
lied finance ministers the justice
Of the American claim to equal par.
ticipation In the Dawes annuities.
Colonel James A. Logan reported
to the department after his CON
ference with winston Churchill,
British chancellor Of the exchequer.
that the basis for an agreement
had been reached.
Details Of the Anglo-American
accord remain to be worked out
and some Of them may prove knot
ty, but with the suspicious start
officials expressed the opinion today
that ultimately, an agreement will
be affected satisfactory to all.
Colonel Logan is keeping Secre-
tary Of State Hughes constantly ad-
vised as to the progress Of his
conversations.
The British have backed down
considerably in their opposition to
| the United States sharing in the
Dawes plan proceeds.
The totality of American claims
against Germany is roughly $780,
0O0, 900, divided into two general
classifications. The first class
amounting to $3.50, OG0 900, arises out
Of the American army costs in 90
cupying the Rhineland. The second
involves $3.50, 200, 900 and includes
damages to nationals and property.
On the army costs, the United
States Is already assured of pri-
ority payments Under the Wads-
worth agreement negotiated a year
ago. Under this agreement, the
| United States was to be paid ap'
| proximately $40, 900 900 annually for
| the next twelve years.
Colonel Logan is understood to
have agreed to have this payment
] period extended to twenty-five years
! in exchange for Great Britain
withdrawing her opposition to equal
participation on the $350,OOO, OO0
claims.
