COMMENTS ON
june REPORT
Commissioner Suggests Study
of Patrol Report as Aid to
Proper Driving.

A highway bulletin summarizing the
report of the state highway patrol for
the month of June shows aid to have
been rendered to individual motorists
to the number of 1921 and corrective
action taken with regard to other
motorists to an extent which prompts
Commissioner C. M. Babcock to sug-
gest the study of the report by the
driving public as an aid to correct
usage of the highways.
AS the primary aim of the state
highway patrol is that of assisting
motorists to reach their destinations
with the fullest measure of ease and
safety, the making of arrests is last
and not first recourse, Commissioner
Babcock is reported as stating in draw
ing attention to the variety of irregu-
larities upon the part of motorists in
dicated by the report.
Warnings were given to 1876 motor
of the attractions for which the warn
of ten attractions for which the warn
ings were given could subject the
motorist to arrest, the complete list is
given as follows: improper license; i'm
proper passing; improper parking; i'm
proper turn; improper lights; improper
brakes; improper signaling; passing on
curve; passing on crest of hill; cutout
open; stickers on windshield; through
stop sign; one-arm driving; cutting in
on traffic; overweight trucks; not
driving in correct lane; faulty steering
gear; soliciting rides; vendors on high
way; defacing highway; speed in con-
gested area; live stock on highway;
size of load.
Tags requiring correction within 48
hours were given to 1888 motorists on
account of illegal equipment and other
irregularities of % different kinds as
follows: illegal brakes; license swing
ing; license obscured; no windshield
wiper; no warning device; no rear
vision mirror; exhaust not muffled;
illegal tires; rear lamp not lighted; Ii
cense not Illuminated; one headlight
out; glaring lights; insufficient light;
lamps out of adjustment; illegal lamps;
no clearance lamps; faulty steering
gear; one license plate missing; no
license plates; wrong license plates;
not having Minnesota license plates;
no visitors permit displayed; not hav-
ing chauffeur's license.
While arrests were few, totaling only
la, the fines imposed on these
amounted to $4,000 The violations
for which arrests were made are class
flied as: driving while drunk, 81; i'm
proper use of licenses, %; careless
driving. 10; failure to stop for arterial
highway, 26.
Patrolmen attended total of 80 ac-
cidents during the month, and in a
number of instances rendered first aid
| to injured persons.
Many of the motorists to whom the
patrolmen found it necessary to give
| attention were from other states, and
when it was felt that the purpose would
| be served as well their attention was
| but brought to the infraction of the
| law of which they were guilty; but
where the safety of others was at
stake no greater consideration could be
given them than others, Commissioner
Babcock reports.

Thursdays Old Settlers
Meeting.

Practically all arrangements have
been completed for entertaining the
Vermilion Range Old Settlers Associ-
alton here on July 81, says the Tower

cided on.
The usual greetings to the Old Timers
win take place at the City Hall from
$3.50 to 1000 o'clock in the morning.
The secretary and his staff will also be
there to issue official cards and badges.
The annual parade will start from the
hall at 1890 marching to the upper
end of Main street, where cars viii be
waiting to convey the members and
their families to Mckinley Park for
the annual picnic. "Booyah," coffee,
cream and sugar will be furnished by
the Oliver Iron Mining Co., and the
Pickands- Mather Co., and will be free.
The serving is scheduled to commence
at 1890. After dinner a program of
sports events will be pulled off by a
committee appointed for that purpose,

On This
Occasion
Just few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial.

The Arrowhead Association
has listed about a dozen tours
to make in seeing this beauti-
full outdoor section. We have
one suggestion to make. In
stead of the North Shore drive
from Duluth to Little Marais
and then on to Ely and the
range towns over the Ely-Fin-
land road, have the trip read
from Duluth through the range
towns and then to Ely and over
the Ely-Finland road to the
North Shore. The reason for
making this suggestion is that
all too many taking the North
Shore drive out of Duluth go
through to Canada where they
spend their money and then
return over the same route in
their anxiety to reach home.
Thus they give the ranges and
the scenic drive between here
and Little Marais the go-by.
1t may be presumptious on our
part to dictate to this noble
organization and it's efficient
secretary, George Perham, but
we are actuated by the desire
to be of the most use to both
the tourist and also the people
of the ranges.

the tourist and also the people
of the ranges.
The sympathy of the state
is extended to the bereaved
family and the Village of Hib-
bling on the death of D. d.
McEachin at st. Paul last week
at the Midway hospital. enc"
as he was generally known was
by long odds one of the most
outstanding citizens of Hib-
bling, if not the most outstand-
ing. He has always been in
terested in the upbuilding and
the conduct of the Richest Viii
lage, the County of St. Louis
and the State of Minnesota.
Through his untiring efforts,
both civically and politically,
much attention has been at
tracted to Hibbing. At the
time of his death he was presi-
dent of the Minnesota State
Fair and was recognized as
one of the best presidents the
great Fair has ever had.
Hibbing has been hard hit in
the last few years in the pass
ing of many of its outstanding
history-making citizens. The
loss of D. D. McEachin falls
heavily on the city. His funeral
took place at Hibbing Monday
morning and to substantiate
the statement that he was an
important figure in the state
it is only necessary to mention
that many of the most prom
inent people of Minnesota at
tended the funeral besides the
entire citizenship of his home
town. ENC" will be missed
by his host of friends through
ont the state in all walks of
life. Men of his stamp are not
any too numerous and the pass
ing of each leaves a void hard
to fill in friendships roll.
The depression has also hit
the bootlegger. Sheriff Owens
has asked the county board for
additional funds to enforce the
dry law in the county. He
stated that the fines paid are
nothing as compared to pros
porous times and that the con-
victed person is taking the Jail
sentence instead of paying the
fine. The fine money is only
half as much as in the same
period of 1881 and the sheriff
needs more money to pay
undercover men. The sheriff
gets half the fines and the
other half goes into the county
general revenue fund. Both
lose in the depression, besides
the cost for feeding prisoners
has greatly increased. With
Moon" selling in some range
towns for 35 cents a pint, it is
no wonder that several months
free feed appeals to the boot.

CHICAGO, June 11.-Ohio States
scarlet and gray attired athletes, led
by Jack Keller and Don Bennett,
were favored to win the eleventh
National Collegiate A. A. track and
field carnival today at Stage field.
On their showing in the prelim-
inarieS Friday, Ohio State figured
to annex between forty-f1ve and
fifty points. which should give the
Buckeyes their second N. G. A. a.
title. Ohio State Won the meet in
1880 with fifty points.
Ohio State placed seven men in
the finals and led the qualifiers Fri
day. Illinois, Minnesota and Okla
homa qualified five each and In
diana, Marquette, Michigan, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Illinois State Normal and
Georgia each qualified four. The
remaining qualifierS were distributed
among twenty-eght colleges.
Two N. G. A. A. records were brok-
en- in the trials. George Sailing,
Iowa's ace hurdler. negotiated the
220-yard low murders with ease in
:23.1, one-tenth of a second faster
than the meet record and within
one-tenth of a second of the worlds
record, and E. Gray, Abilene (Tex.)
Christian college, ran the half mile
IN 1882, three-tenths of a second
faster than the meet record.
Gray'S record, however, will not
be accepted because he is not
eligible for intercollegiate COM
petition competing as an Olympic
candidate only.
Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette Negro
Splinter, who is fast clinching a
berth on the Olympic team, in
dicated in Fridays trials that there
is no one in the N. c. A. A. meet
to match his speed. He won his
heat of the 100-yard dash in :0e.6
and his heat in the 220-yard dash in
:2l.S, breezing all the way in both
events.
Don Bennett, Ohio states Big Ten
champion, was beaten by jim John
son, Illinois State Normal Negro. in
his heat of the century in :09.S.
In addition to the four Indiana U.
qualifiers. four other Hoosier stars
gained places in today's competition.
They were Burns of Butler in the
quarter mile, Wilson of Notre Dame
in the quarter, Purvis of Purdue in
