MARX BROTHERS AT CAUITCL
TODAY AND SATURDAY

"Horse Feathers" latest of the mad
merry comedies of the Four Marx
Brothers is now.playing at the Capitol
Theatre.
Groucho, Chico, Harpo and Zep-
20 are again cast together in a picture
that affords them opportunities for
same type of nonsense they presented
in animal Crackers" Monkey
Business" and 1.-THE Cocoanuts,"
their three previous movie efforts.
An amusing plot holds the picture
together. Groucho is a college pre-
sident because that's the only way, it
seems, he can get his SON, Zeppo, cut
of college. Zeppo has been there
twelve years.
Upon this frame is built many a
comedy situation. Groucho talks at
his usual rapid-hre rate; Chico puns
in dialect; Harpo says nothing and
chases every blonde in sight; and
makes love to the best-lookins
girls available.

ELY HIGH QUINT
BEATS AURORA
High School Cagers Chalk Up
Win Over Mesaba Range
Basketeers.

With a fast breaking offense working
to perfection and some excellent shoot
ing, the Ely high school basketball team
defeated Aurora here Friday with a
score of 81 to 26. Ely outplayed Aur-
Ora by wider margin than the score
indicates. The locals gained lead in
the first quarter and kept adding to ii
until the fourth quarter at which time
Ely substitutes slowed up the game
somewhat and Aurora rallied to make
the final result a bit more even.
The teams battled on even terms dur
ing half of the first period. Ely put on
fast squirt to score three goals and
hold to lead as the quarter ended.
Continuing with savage attack in the
second frame, the locals scored consist
emily to make the count 10 to 3 at
half-time. Keeping up their brilliant
play which had Aurora bewildered, Ely
added to their total and held 80 to Is
advantage as the third period ended.
The locals, with several SubstitutionS in
the lineup, slowed up in the final quar-
ter which gave Aurora the opportunity
10 score eleven points.
The Ely forward line of Porthan,
Trezona and Golobich worked fine, each
man scoring often with Porthan leading
the trio, counting Is points. Banks and
Johnson, Ely guards, played good de-
fensive game and repeatedly carried the
ball into the front court to feed it to
the forwards for scores. Mackey was
the leading scorer for the visitors with
II points while Gina played very good
floor game.

0NE-bUCK LAW
IS DISCUSSED
Local Sportsman Relates the
Experiences Of Other States
the Measure.
By DIR. J. E. Thompsonl


As often as deer season comes 20
Minnesota, the one buck law opponents
revive their issue. Both sides have at
all times been in earnest and have felt
themselves in position to cite facts
to uphold their side of the case.
Itasca County, which through special
request, has for some time had in opera
ton the so-called One Buck Law.
cannot see how this county can cite
that territory as a proving grounds for
the Soundness of the one buck Theory
until they have placed a fence twenty
feet high about the county and then had
the law in effect for some fifteen years.
1t is very apparent that theneighboring
counties without this law may have
been acting as feeders to the deer herd
OF Itasca County. shall not go into
the pro and con on the issue but merely
tackle it from biological viewpoint and
cite facts which have recently come
to light along these lines.
The so-called PENNSYLVANIA Plan of
handling the deer situation has been
repeatedly mentioned by those favor
ing the one buck law It is granted
here. that the one buck law in PENN
sylvania after being in force for num-
Der of years, has increased the deer herd
OF that state. In fact, they have too
many deer. But the quality of deer
has in recent years been shown to be
OF inferior nature. In addition to that.
certain biological changes have taken
place which threaten to make matters
much worse. All facts in reference to
the deer problem in the state of Penn
sylvania, herewith cited, are taken
from Bulletin No. IL issued by the
Board of Game Commissioners of that
state.
First, the operation of the law had
brought about a very decided unbalanee
in the ratio of sexes. When two trained
Observers noted lot deer and only two
of them with antlers, this fact must
be admitted. On another case out OF
some sixty odd deer, only one had
antlers. Even more serious observations
than this have been noted by reliable
observers.
To Offset this unbalance, Pennsy.-
vania had to declare an open season
on does and a closed season ON bucks
Many people argued that this would de-
plete the deer herd but the facts noted

SEAL SALES
NOT BRISK
Director Crosby Says Christmas
Seals Not Meeting With
Ready Response.

Returns in the annual Christmas seal
sale are tagging and an urgent appeal
to all residents of st. Louis County to
contribute something to this campaign,
was issued today by George H. Crosby,
County Christmas Seal Campaign Di-
rector. Those to whom seals were
mailed last month are urged to respond
at their earliest convenience.
THE activities of the st. Louis County
Public Health Assn are directly de-
pendent on the annual Christmas seal
SALE" said Mr.. Crosby. 1T will be seen
therefore, that if the work of this or
ganization in improving health con-
ditions and the saving of lives is to
continue, it is important and necessary
that every person contribute at least
something to the Christmas seal fund.
1t will not prove either good or real
economy to cut the program for the
preservation of public health"
Human values have not been debated.
This is no time to cripple the effective
ness of our health organizations. Ex-
penditures for health service have here
tofore been very moderate in COM
parison with other necessary public
services. There has never been any in
flation of this branch of public ser
vice and it, therefore, does not lend it
self to deplation.
What communities have put into
public health has been paid back many
times in reduced sickness, and in the
salvage of human lives. Such money
has proved very profitable investment .
DR.. Parker, in charge of the seal sales
for this city reports tagging condition
of the sales. All those who have not
remitted for the seals sent to them
through the mails should do so at once.
DR.. Charles Mayo recently elected
president of the Minnesota Public
Health Association in speaking of the
Christmas Seals says:
1--WE have never let up fighting dis
ease which was not yet conquered that
it did not prove disastrous. There is
greater need today for continuing and
increasing the fight against tuberculosis
than ever before. Doctors can provide
the scientific knowledge and do the
medical work but organizations such as
the public health associations are
essential to demonstrate new work and
educate the public to take advantage of
the newer ideas The public health
associations are financed entirely by
the annual sale of Christmas Seals
