Hard-boiled Rancher
Settles Divorce Case
at Point of Cat
Compelled Wife's Attorney and Wife
to Sign Agreement Not to Contest
Suit for a Consideration Of $50.

KaHspell, April 5.-A divorce case
handled at the point of a gun landed
L. z. Grob, a well-tc-do east side
, rancher in the county Jail on a charge
of threatening to commit murder.
About two months ago Mr.. Grob
filed action for divorce employing F.
D. Lingenfieter, county attorney and
H. A. Kendall as his lawyers. Mrs.
Grob retained Dean King, and an or
der to show cause why plaintiff should
rot pay alimony and counsel fees,
was prepared. A conference was call
ed to effect a compromise if possible.
After a heated argument ending in
failure, Kendall withdrew and Lingen-
fleter tried his hand. Shortly after
the discussion was resumed, Grob,
according to evidence, drew a a.
! calibre revolver, commanded Attor-
ney Lingenfelter TO draw up an
agreement not to contest his divorce
action, which he compelled both King,
his wife's attorney, and his wife to
sign. He then forced his own attor-
ney to write cheek for $50 ''in full
for attorney fees" which was done
without argument and signed by Grob.
Grob then left for his ranch near
Creston where he was arrested bv
Sheriff Fitzpatrick shortly after noon.
He was arraigned before Justice Nc
Carthy charged with threatening to
commit murder, refused the offer of
time to plead, and refused to attempt
to raise the $4,000 bond under which
he was ordered held for district
court, and was remanded to the
county Jail.

Sail Centre-Osakis Game

The Sank Centre High School bas-
ket hall team gave it's most feared RI
val, the Osakis High School team, a
decisive defeat, at the junior HlgH
Auditorium on last Friday evening.
The score at the end of the game
stood FL to 16, and it marked the
evening up of contests between tne
two schools. -,
Osakis came here with a splendid
record behind it, and a record break
ing crowd of boosters with 1T, hoping
to annex another victory for It's last
game of the season. They started
with a new lineup. Waggoner re-
placed Rutten at guard; their offense
was lust the same as in other Osakls
games. -,
The game started off with Osaks
q few points in the lead because OF
free throws. Brown in his anxious
ness fouled several times. He soon
settled down and the old machine,
Movnihan, to Nelson to Brown or
MacDermond soon got working and
Sank Centre went into the lead. But
Osakis was not contented to be on the
short end and soon dropped in anoth-
err counter. The game was see-saw
match from then on until the second
half. The half ended 9 to IN favor
of the local quintet. From then on
Osakis wasn't in it at all. Coach kas-
lows men began to locate the loop
and with Moynihan doing his pest
work of the season at guard, a victory
was assured the Sank Centre i've.
Brown was put out in the last quart
err because of personal fouls. Referee
Adams was watching him all through
the game, and he finally got four
fouls on him. Person went into the
guard position made vacant by Moy'
nihan's move up to forward. Inc
team fought all the harder now be.
cause Osakis felt and said it would
be easy with Brown out OF it. The
guards hurried the visitors shots and
! kept them at long range. At nc
time in the second half was the out
come of the game in doubt. Inc
Sank Centre team was superior to the
/ Osakis team and it deserved the flne
victory it won.
The scrappy youngsters from the
nearby city deserve much credit FOL
] the fine exhibition of ball they pu,
up. Every one of them played fol
all he was worth, and was distinct
credit to his team and school. Nc
one played on the Osakis squae
starred, but the entire team played
excellent basketball. Coach Omar
i deserves much credit for the rec
ord his team has made.
On the Sank Centre team there
were five stars. Each player did ex
| ceptionally well, particularly Wilco,
| and Nelson on the defense, ant
Brown, Moynihan and MacDermont
on the offense. The latter three

sent the best players was difficult
one. However, the following is my
choice as the best five basket ball
players in the past five years.
Herbert Lembke of the class of
1924, played here for four years.
His playing was always feature. AL
though his size was against him, he
outplayed and out-witted almost
every guard sent against him. Herb
should receive the honor of one of
the forwards on this mythical squad.
Leonard Brown, captain of this
yaer's quint, and without doubt the
fiashiest player in the district. this
season, would make a good running
mate for Lembke. Brown is better
floor man than Lembke, but the lat
ter is more consistent in shooting,
Particularly is this true in free
throws and closeup shots. Brown
I is the best dribbler on this years
team and the best passer. He would
easily make small college team
in Junior and senior year.
There is no question as to the
Center. There never was and
doubt if there ever will be a center
here who will be better than Fred
die Meyers. Fred captained the
teams of 1921 and 1922. His ply
sique gave him natural advantage
over many other players in his class,
and at no time in 1921 and 1922
was he outplayed by his opponents.
He was making good under the tute-
loge of Coach Dean at Carleton Col
lege, but since then has not been
playing any basket ball at the state
university. Meyers floor work and
his jumping together with his shoot
ing ability would easily place him OF
this team.
= 1t was difficult to choose between
Harold Brown, 1921 and 1922 and
Clarence Vandesteeg, 1921, for one
of the guard positions Brown was a
better defense man then Vandesteeg,
but Vandesteeg could handle the ball
with skill, and could shoot well. He
was always in good condition and u.s.
ually trained better than any man on
the 1921 team. If Clarence had re-
turned to school the season of 1922
he would have developed into the best
guard in the district.
The other guard position goes to
Walter Moynihan. The sport section
of this paper has been loud in it's
praise of this young player, and it
believes he is the handiest man on
the team this year. He is never
caught mapping and he knows the
game thoroughly. Because of his
cool Readiness, and his excellent play
; ing during the past two years, Walt
err is placed as captain of this team
, Without a doubt, Walt is the best
man of the five men selected.
The team as selected:
: H. Lembke 1921, 1922, 1923, 1924
forward.
L. Brown, 1923, 1924, 1925-for.
ward.
F. Meyers, 1921, 1922-center.
C Vandesteeg, 1921-guard.
w. Moynihan, 1924, 1926 guard
and captain.
Honorable mention-Nelson, Mac.
Dermond, T. Lewis, Harold Brown
and D. Lewis.

In the first place. children are al

is human nature to resist restraint,
and children are very human. When
ever the regulations of school and
home and society are too pressing,
the children rebel-react against
them, the psychologist would say.
Now, they cannot fght the adults and
they cannot fight circumstances. All
that is left is themselves, and they let
off all their Irritation on each other.
The fact that they are brothers and

energy. You see, the home restric-
tions, the teachers mandates and the
town ordinances have rather sup
pressed that tremendous power, and

Then, too, children are great imita-
