sufficient for early season games is
we'll prepared and groomed as is pos

do its duty; if the line can hold its
own, the backfield, one of the fastest
in this part of the country led by
Captain Arnett, will do its share
toward victory Saturday. Several

The 1927 Redwood County Fair

too good. The disagreeable morning

corn. In this building also was a
splendid display of farm fruit, veg
etables, etc. Among the fruits were
Concord grapes as fine as were ever
shipped in from any vineyard. The
display of canned fruits and veget-
ables elected many complimentary
comments from the judge. The sew
ing exhibit and the art and flower
displays, both in this building, are
about as large as formerly and show
many pieces of beautiful work.
The Pike is double in size this
year, every inch of available space
being used. There is the usual var
iety of amusements of standard type
and an unusual number Of eating
places, many of them run by local
organizations or individuals. There
are a large number of fine exhibits
arranged by various business houses
of Redwood Falls.
Automobiles of several makes COM

A New Stunt

A representative of county
newspaper called on Milroy the
other day and had quite a gen.
eral line to sell. The first thing
he made known was that he was
not in the contest, but tried very
hard to sell the paper. Then to
the business men he would put
this proposition up. To adver-
tise in their paper and cut out
the local paper, and too that they
were the county paper, etc. The
proposition of cutting out the
local paper or cutting out any
local institution and switch to
the county paper (not the Off
cial paper) proved quite distaste-
full to the business men here ap-
preached. They also overlooked
giving US a fraternal call.-Mil-
roy Echo.

MAY USE PEN TO END
TIGER. CRIMSON SPLIT

By the Associated Press.
WALLINGFORD. Conn, January
Unemployment of the pen to revive
what the pen helped to kill-the ath-
letic relations between Princeton and
Harvard--is a suggestion which has
come out of a conference of repre-
sentatives of the Yale Daily News,
the Harvard Crimson. the Prince
tonian and the Dartmouth, undergrad
uate newspapers.
"A rapprochement between Prince.
ton and Harvard with veiw toward
ultimate restoration of athletic rela-
tions. is not beyond the realm of pos
sibility," said Dana Bartholomew.
chairman of the incoming board of
the Yale Daily News, after discussion
at the "Choate School yesterday.
1T was the consensus that natural
rather than artificial means would be
resorted to in order to heal the breach.
For example. the Crimson should
run articles and photographs of
Princeton, and the Princetonian could
return the compliment. In this way
men of both institutions would gain
better ideas about each other.
Such methods would help dispel
the idea in some Harvard minds that
Princeton is a country club, and would
show Princetonians that Harvard is
not merely Boston society group"
The break between Princeton and
Harvard followed closely upon the
publication of special Princeton
number of the Lampoon, Harvard I'M
dergraduate comic magazine. distrib-
uted to the crowds at the Princeton
Harvard game.

Best Pitch He Ever Made.
Willie says that the best shot he
ever made with a mashie-niblick was
the one he played at Worcester last
year on the eighteenth hole of the
first play with Bobby Jones for
the open title.
Bobby had driven to rough at the
right, but still obtained greater dis
lance than Willie. who played first
to the green, a 100-yard shot.
Willie's ball lay on a little patch
Of firm grass. just right for an iron.
II believe l can almost hole out
from here" he told his caddy.
The boy was cautious. Right
across the front of the green ran
deep trap. The cut was set not more
than 10 feet from its edge. A short
ball could easily find the trap.

yond the cup" he said. THE way

second and required two puts. but
Macfarlane missed his 3-footer and

Defensively the Maroon outfit is
much on the job as it proved in
it's game with Williams last month.
Walsh proved himself good
guard, and though his man occa-
sionally got clear a. few yards and
started a dribble. Walsh usually
saved the day with his fast foot
work.
Walsh under such conditions,
uses the best of strategy, as he
puts on full speed, rushes up the
middle of the court and drives at
his man so he is bound to force
him toward the sideline. Then the
offensive player is less dangerous,

can always spoil an attempted
shot and at the worst force the
opponent to pass backward.
