LONG SERIES OF
 FOOTBALL GAMES
Dartmouth-HarVard and Rut- gerS-NeW York U. Old Rivals

New York, Oct. 20 Np>-Harvard and Dartmouth Saturday afternoon will continue a football argument started more than two score years ago. There have been interruptions since the first game was played in 1882 but the Crimson and the Green have managed to fight out thirty two gridiron battles in the period of forty-sour years.
 Harvard has won twenty-five games while Dartmouth was an nexing five and there have been two no decision contests. However, the Indians from New Hampshire at the moment are on an unbroken string of three consecutive victories, win ming the games of 1923, 1924 ad 1925.
 The Crimson enters Saturdays game in a cheerful frame of mind as result of last weeks develop ments. Yale by defeating Dartmouth showed that 1t can be done and Harvard, using William and Mary as it's first victim of the season. demonstrated that it is on the up- grade.
 641 Points To 129
 Harvard won eighteen games in a row from the Hanover contingent, the first sixteen being shutouts. From 1882 to 1899, Dartmouth did not score in the series. The big Green team broke into the scoring column in 1901 when it was on the little end of 27 to 12 score and took the losers end again the fol- lowing year by a count of Is 10 6. With the scoring ice broken. Dart mouth defeated Harvard for the first time in 1908, the score being to Q. The drawn contests followed In or der in 1904, when q scoreless tie was played, and in 1905 when the score was to 6.
 Dartmouth won In 1907 after Harvard had scored a victory the previous season. Harvard then won five games in as many reasons until the series was interrupted for ten year stretch from 1912 to 1922. Harvard resumed it's winning stride in 1922 where 1t was left off in 1912 fut Dartmouth got the range in 1o.3 and Harvard has not regis tered triumph since.
 Harvard has scored G41 points to 129 for Dartmouth over the life time effort.
 \. Y. [. and Rutgers
 Another rivalry Of many years standing reaches it's climax when Rutgers and New York university play Saturday at the Yankee Sta dium. This discussion of relative football merit was started In 1890. X total of twenty-two games has resulted in thirteen Rutgers victor ies, eight for New York university end a scoreless tic. In later years, however. there has been a distinct tinee of dark blue in the violet of New York. Rutgers has won every game played since 1911, when there was no scoring. Rutgers exhibited a decided edge in 1914 and 1915 when the series was interrupted un- til 1921. Last year the New Jersey team won by single point, 2 to 6.
 New York university, playing its first intersectionaI game turned back the Greenbacks of Tulane last week. arousing great enthusiasm over the victory at the expense of the lads from the far south. A vic tory over Rutgers after many lean years will permit joy 10 reign un- confined at the Bronx institution.

sionary doctor at the Norwegian

speakers. He spoke of the Stu

versity and how he came about
to be interested in the missionary
field as his life work. His plans
are to go to India after another
years preparation.
Viggo Bovbjerg, worker at the
Hull House in Chicago, doing So
cial settlement work, spoke inter-
estingly about his experiences
with boys from all sects, creeds,
and denominations, and of the
noble work being done by Jane
Adams, DIR. Taylor, and others.
The last lecture on the program,
by Alfred C. Nielsen, formerly
principal of Danebod Folk High
School, Tyler, was in English as
were also the talks given by
Messrs. 0stergaard and Bovbjerg
preceding him. Mr.. Nielsen spoke
about love and knowledge, en-
phasizing that the home should
be inspired by love and guided by
knowledge; the knowledge refer
red to is not high degrees but a
good, broad understanding.
Refreshments were served in
the basement Of the church fol-
lowing the lecture and the young
folks by the hundreds then went
to the D. B. S. hall and enjoyed
games for a while.
Meals were served all of the
visitors in the church basement
each of the three days, this part
of the program, which is also a
very necessary one, had been care
fully planned and was carried out
wonderfully well, the committee
having worked industriously and
cared very well for the inner man.
The church basement was also
neatly decorated and everything
put on a pleasing and happy ap-
pearance.
Generally speaking, the meet
ings were followed with great in
terest and understanding-with a
desire to learn and profit and to
take home something good to live
and dwell upon. There were, of
course, a few exceptions of the
real young ones who had more
desire for automobile driving,
dances and the like, bit those
were the exceptions. There was
no boisterous hand clapping, yell
ing or other demonstrations at the
meetings, but a general, earnest
desire on the part of all for
something deeper. a.

country and the Importance of
historical study and the advantage
and desirability of getting a world
viewpoint, in which it appears
that the young folks, as well as
those of all ages and walks of
life, in European countries are
above folks in America. Rev.
Frost also conveyed greetings to
the audience from Rev. Kr. Ander-
sen, pastor in Upland, Denmark,
and who was formerly pastor at
Askov, leaving here seven years
ago. Rev. Andersen has not been
in good health but is improving.
Rev. Frost who recently returned
from years stay in Denmark,
and is amongst the younger pas
tors of the Danish Lutheran
Church, is developing into being
good speaker, a deep thinker,
and a man who has a message to
deliver.
Following the lecture, a class
of Tyler boys, gymnasts, enter
tanned the audience on the park
lawn, giving a good demonstration
of those exercises which bring
every muscle of the body into use.
There were also several kitten ball
games between girls and boys
teams.
An open air entertainment had
been prepared for the visitors
at the park in the evening, the
band starting out by playing sew
eral selections. A mems quartette
of Minneapolis, entertained well
with several songs, and a number
of tableaus were put on by local
people, amongst them being 'The
Girl With the Matches, Mothers
Old Spinning Wheel, "The Prin-
cess and the Troubador', "The
Signing of the Declarat on of In
dependence, and little love
scene.
Much time and energy had been
put forth in the rehearsals and
preparation for this evenings en-,
tertainment, but due to the
sprinkling of rain, the program
was somewhat married. The Askov
Glee Club sang. several songs, and
the entertainment ended with a
torch procession of young girls
dressed in white, during which
the audience sang the old familiar
and beautiful Danish song, Del.

the church Sunday forenoon, the

communion. The spacious church
was entirely filled, extra seating
capacity having been well ar
ranged.
In the afternoon, Rev. C. P.
H0jbjerg, now principal of the
Danebod Folk High School, Tyler,
lectured. His theme was the in
dividuals right to think in his
own way and form his own opin-
ions; to be guided by that in his
life and not by routine of the
majority. Rev. Hojbjerg quoted
from several books. He is a stu
dent and a deep thinker. His lee
ture was followed very enthusi-
astically by his many former
Grand View students in the au-
dience who have heard him many
times and could easily follow him.
To others, it appeared that he
spoke a little rapid at times.
Two talks, not scheduled on the
program, were also well received.

Societies Successful ven
Local Societies in District.

The annual convention of the
Third District Young Peoples So
cieties of the Danish Lutheran
Church, which was held in Askov,
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
June IS, 10, and 20, was largely
attended and was a successful
meeting throughout.
Visitors began arriving Thurs
day afternoon. The local band
entertained the early arrivals by
giving an open air concert in the
park that evening. The care
taker of the park, Chris Iversen,
who had spent much of his time
the last two or three weeks in
identifying same, cleaning paths,
cutting grass, repairing tables
and benches and making addi-
tional new ones, had the park
looking spick and span. The cleo
trio lights also lent additional
coloring to the festivities.
Officially the convention open
ed Friday forenoon with bus
mess session, being called to-
gether by Vermund 0stergaard,
Tyler, president of the society.
Rev. Arthur E. Frost, Dagmar,
Mont, was chosen moderator of
the business meetings, with By
ron Olsen, Askov, secretary, and
Miss Bodil Fenger, Askov, as
sistant secretary. Reports of ac-
Invites in the various societies
during the past year, were given.
In the afternoon, Prof. Elmer.
of the State University, who has
spoken in Askov on two other
occasions, lectured about Grim
inals and their influence on so
ciety. He spoke slowly and very
distinctly, being easy to under.
stand. Mr.. Elmer stated that
young criminals are much easier
to turn back to the right path
than the older ones, and the thing
to do is to interest the young
folks, who have gone wrong, in
something useful-get them int
crested and working and keep
their minds off that which is evil.
Prof. Elmer is soon to leave the
Minnesota University to become
head of the Department of Soci-
ology in an eastern university.
In the evening, Miss Dagmar
Moller, Danish Lutheran mission
airy in India the past six years,
spoke of her work in the mission
airy fields on the other side OF the
globe. Her work is principally
with women and young girls. She
stated that it is necessary to Sc
gregate girls from boys in the
schools of India. Women there
are not considered on an equal
with men, as is the case in the
history of all countries. Miss
Moller is heart and soul in her
work and has given her life to a
noble deed that of bringing
Christianity and knowledge to the
heathens of India.
Saturday forenoon there was a
Bible hour led by Rev. H. c..
Strandskov, Dagmar, Montana,
with good attendance.
Later in the forenoon, there was
