OSakiS Defeated

The basketball game Friday eve
ming between the Sank Centre High
and the Osakis High, on the floor
of the Junior High School Auditor
ium, of this city, was one of the
snappiest games played in Sank
Centre this year.
A few weeks ago Sank Centre had
defeated the Osakis quint on their
home floor and were confident they
could take their measure again Fri
day evening" Their conclusions
were justified but not without the
hardest kind of a fight.
Everything looked rosy until the
last few minutes of play when the
visitors began shooting veritable
whirlwind of baskets from every
section of the court. The main
Streeters" braced, and "Butch"
Iwinski shot a field goal. The final
goal was Sank Centre, 20; Osakis,
IS.
The Osakis team are bunch of
fine sports, and play hard, clean
game of ball. Late in the game
couple Of the visitors were COMPEL
ed to leave the floor on account of
too many fouls. AS they left Sank
Centre showed their true sports
manship by saying ito bad, old
Man." "you played a fine game"
"better luck next time"
Butch" Iwinski was the fair
haired boy Friday. Coach Omadt, of
Osakis, set a couple of his men to
guard Pat Dubois. That made it
tough for Pat but gave Butch"
numerous opportunities. His total
for the evening was IA points.
Every regular on the team, except
johnson, scored four or more points
johnson had several chances but
close guarding prevented him from
scoring.
The prettiest shot of the game
was an overland backwards by
Iwinski when he was surrounded
by three of the visitors.
Sank Centre led at the end of
the first quarter to 6. At the half
way point the lead was 16 to IL. In
the third period the lead was in
creased % to IA. The visitors rath-
er outplayed the locals in the final
quarter, scoring II points against
seven for Sank Centre. The follow
ing is the tabulated score:

Senator Mackenzie received cop
les Of the LaGuardia measure Tues
day. After persuing it, Senator
Mackenzie said he is convinced, de-
spite contrary arguments by dry
leaders, that congress should set
up the machinery in a general way
for the states to follow when they
act on the repeal proposal.
ut is clear that from a practical
standpoint, the states should fol-
low a uniform plan and be COM
PEELED to act on the matter" Senat-
or Mackenzie said. eff left to the
states to do as they see fit, we
might find the southern states for
getting all about it."
Senator Mackenzie said he is in
accord with the major provisions
of the LaGuardia bill.
It would provide for single cleo
ton of delegates who would meet
in every state capitol May 16, 1888,
to ballot on repeal. That would
bring the question to head in a
single year and would either end
prohibition at once or settle the
question of retaining prohibition
until some future congress takes it
up again.
The delegates would be chosen
by a board of election appointed by
the governor. This board, in turn.
would select-so far as Minnesota
is concerned-23 vets and % drys
whose names would go on ballot
in two columns under proper desig-
nation indicating their stand on re-
peal. Blank spaces would be pro-
vided for additional delegates whose
names could be written in by the
voters. The % candidates receiv-
ing the highest number of votes
would become the delegates.
