WRESTLERS READY
FOR THE WORD "GO"

The wrestling match between Con
Laastuen of Minneapolis, and 1. M.
Plumb of Bruno, to take place at
the D. B. S. hall in Askov, Saturday
evening, Jan. Is, promises to be a
thriller. Conrad Christensen who is
in charge of the arrangements for the
American Legion, has received let
tiers from both of the contestants in
which they make it plain that each
is out to win, and each thinks he is
the master of the other. However,
both acknowledge the ability of the
other and no stones are left unturned
by either to be in the pink of condi-
ton. Laastuen was just returned
victor in match at Rochester.
The two preliminary matches by
local wrestlers will precede the main
bout of the evening.

he had just finished hanging up when
apprehended by Game Warden Grieg.
Ford confessed to the violation of the
game laws, and while in the lookup

ermann that he only wished that he
was some relation to Henry Ford, so
that he would be able to pay his
fine.

SANDSTONE QUINT
LOSES TO PINE CITY
Final Score, Pine City %, Sand
stone s, Played at Pine City
Fined for Killing Deer. =

In a fast clean basket ball game,
Pine City defeated Sandstone at the
Armory floor Friday evening by a
score of 20 to s. The Sandstone team
was a light aggregation, being out
weighed by the Pine City team some
twenty pounds to man, and due to
the strange floor, did not show up as
well as their followers had expected.
For the visitors, Edin who played at
right forward, put up the best game.
He mixed aggressively into every
play and succeeded in caging four
free throws out of seven attempts.
Fyhr also showed up we'll, making the
only basket scored by the visitors
during the game. For Pine City,
Buirge and Hoefler divided honors,
each scoring two baskets and free
throw. Blanchard, at running guard,
also did some excellent work, making
two baskets. Dale Therrien and Nc
Kusick, who substituted later in the
game, also succeeded in making one
basket and free throw each. Sub
stitutes were used freely on both
sides. The lineup follows:

90 for the purchase of a chemical
engine.
The President of the Council

Budget now under consideration
contained items totaling nearly
$4,000. 90 for items extraordinary,

chase of the Tourist Park property
from the Country Club for $780,

items would mean a considerable

demands for another year. The

Constipation steals strength,
