Sport EUents DruU Interest
of Larue Numbers in County
STURGEON WILL
PLAY At ST. PAUL

The Sturgeon Lake Baseball
club will play Cokato at st. Paul
on Saturday, Sept. 16, at 3 p. m.
That will be the first play-off
game for the Pine county winners
in the Association of Baseball
leagues tournament at Lexington
Park. The Sturgeon Lake club
will be augmented by H. John of
Brook Park; Hoeffert of Greeley;
Lee Mallory of Carlton; and Frank
Peters of Willow River.
Pine and Carlton county fans
should make Saturday their day
at the State tournament as large
amount of high grade baseball
entertainment is provided on that
day. There are three other games
scheduled for that day in addition
to the game that the Pine county
entry participates in.
If every one who can possibly
get away will go to st. Paul Sat-
urday it is recommended that a
solid roofing section for the Pine
county entry can be formed to
give them concentrated support.
At this tournament the choicest
of amateur baseball in the state
is paraded before the spectators
in one game after another. Many
of the players that participate are
candidates for the minor and ma
jor leagues and will probably
make baseball headlines ''tomor-
row." Those who enjoy the game
of baseball will find many thrills
in watching the play, for each
team puts everything it has into
the game so as to be able to carry
on through the tournament to the
finals and the championship.

TENNIS TOURNAMENT
BEING PLAYED HERE

Askov is in the throes of an inter-
esting tennis tournament in which p
men are taking part and six girls.
Many of the men have already played
their first round matches, but the
girls have not started play.
The tourney will vary little from
those of previous years in that there
will be a doubles tournament. This
is expected to be pleasing nova
ton. The girls will play for a prize
and the men will play for possession
of trophy which has been in the
possession of Svend Petersen who won
it last year.

By Governor Floyd B. Olson

Suggest the idea of a national third
party and at once you are confronted
with an argument which runs about
as follows: American political soil is
two-party soil. The third party plant
cannot feed on this soil; the sus-
tenance is not there"
There is neither truth nor logic to
that argument.
In the first place, America has
never had a genuine two-party move
ment. The last national campaign
saw issues rather clearly defined be-
tween the two major parties, and it
came closer to a clash of political
ideas than had formerly been the
case. But generally speaking, there
has been little in the past to divide
Republican and Democratic doctrine.
was not a sufficiently fundamental
difference in political philosophy
and sometimes even this difference
was almost indistinguishable.
Precisely, what we have had in this
country has been a one-party system.
True, there have been two major pO-
litical parties, but their political con-
cepts have been pretty much alike.
Their shibboleths, generally speaking,
were ingenious publicity phrases.
Neither represented mass aspiration;
n e i t h er represented revolutionary
thought in any sense of the word.
The citadel of capitalism was UNI
shaken, regardless of which party was
the victor at the polls.
Three Political Channels.
l believe that in mature, healthy.
political atmosphere, political thought
falls into three principal channels
conservative, liberal, and radical. In
England we have three major political
parties representative of each of these
philosophers. When we in America
dismiss the idea of a third major po
litical party as something impossible,
we confess that we have not pro-
crossed to the point of natural and
logical political alignment. And it
may be that in our opportunistic politi-
cal atmosphere, this is in a measure
correct. 1t is not correct, however,
from the standpoint of future political
strategy.
We have progressed politically to
the point where the Republican party
is fast becoming the party of the con-
sentative, the party of the Tory. More
and more, conservatives are beginning
to feel fast allegiance to that party,

BROOK PARK LOSES
TO MISSION CREEK

Brook Park of the Pine County
Baseball League, dropped an exhibit
ton game to Mission Creek of the
Cross Country League, Sunday at
Brook Park by a score of 10 to g..
Brook Park had four regulars in the
game at one time and gave several
recruits an opportunity to win their
spurs. George Nelson displayed con-
siderable promise at first base and
will possibly be seen in uniform with
the Brook Park team next season.
Mission Creek, a fast snappy team,
grasped an opportunity and made six
scores in the first two innings, but
were held to only four scores the re-
mainder of the game. Brook Park
finally took the lead in the eighth
inning but Mission Greek was able to
force over the winning runs in the
ninth.

GOLF TOURNEY
WAS BIG EVENT
Forty -four Entries From Wide Terri
tory Makes Hfnckley's First
Meet Outstanding.

The same cooperative spirit and
will to accomplish, which turned a
veritable wilderness into free rolling
fairways, was again in evidence sun
day at Hinckey, when the Hinckley
golf club staged one of the most sue
cessful tournaments seen in this sec
ton of the country. From 1880 o'clock
in the morning until 6 o'clock in the
evening there was something doing
in a golf way and the competition
was keen throughout the day as "A
golfers from North Branch to the
SOUTH Mora and Cambridge to the
west and Sandstone to the north with
even Cloquet having an entry in w. j.
Wilkinson, manager of the Minnesota
Power & Light Co., battled for high
est honors.
Joe Williams of Hinckley, came
through as the champion of the tourn-
ament with A. F. johnson of North
Branch, the runnerup. The club had
provided a grand array of prizes for
not only the championship flight, but
for the consolation matches and each
of the four flights under the cham
pionship flight as we'll.
A driving contest was an added fea-
ture following the tourney and ma
jority of the golfers took part in this.
Joe Williams also won this event.
The winner of the medal score, or the
lowest score for the first Is holes OF
play was A. F.. Johnson of North
Branch, with 80, and the one max
ing the highest score for the Is holes
which also drew prize, was George
Neubert of Mora.
The Hinckley lady golfers were out
bright and early in the morning and
throughout the day in charge of re-
freshment stand housed by tent
where the hungry could get their fill
of sandwiches, doughnuts, coffee and
other refreshments. Their hospitality
was not lacking.
Hinckley Course Pretty.
The Hinckley Golf course is pref
tily laid out among gently rolling
acres and scattered with just enough
pine and other trees to add to its
scenic beauty. Its fairways show
much and patient work and the fall
rains have begun to pay their rewards
to the efforts put forth by the club
in a green grassy growth. A spiri!
of fellowship exists at the club and
the stranger is welcome.
Officials of the club, in discussing
the tournament following its compile
ton, were very enthusiastic and il
is planned to make it an annual
event.

CHANGES HANDS
Otto MadSen Purchases Stock and
Fixtures From I. w. Hansen
This Week.

T. w. Hansen sold his cafe in
Askov this week to Otto Madsen, a
resident of the community for several
years. Mr.. and Mrs. Madsen took
possession of the business Monday

Elna Nielsen will conduct the bust
ness while Mr.. Madsen is finishing up
the fall farm work and arranging to

While welcoming the new business
people friends and business associates
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. w. Hansen will
regret to see them sever business and
residential connections here since
during their stay of seven years here
they have made many friends. They
both have taken an active part in the
conduct of the restaurant and will be
deeply missed.
Before coming here the Hansens
lived at Ogilvie three years and be-
fore that operated a restaurant bust
ness in Minneapolis for % years
where they enjoyed very good bust
ness. While having no definite plans
as to future business activities, it is
possible that Mr.. Hansen will feel
the urge before many weeks have
passed. He and Mrs. Hansen plan on
| visiting at various points in this state
with relatives and friends and then
| leave for the west coast-Oregon and
Westinghouse visit with relatives
I among whom is a daughter in st.
Helens, Ore, where they will pos
sibly locate. They will leave Askov
some time the latter part of Septem-
Der.

| the business which will be known in
the future as Otto's Cafe, came here
N. D., as young man in 1917 and
for few years assisted at home on
the farm near the village. He was
married to Miss Elsie Andersen in
1925 and they have made their home
since on the farm one mile west and
two and one-half miles south OF

CAMP RITCHIE, CASCADE,

story of q District National
Churchman's nap In . barn dur
ing the field maneuvers yester-
day of the 29th Division staff
near Gettysburg, Pa.
Communication Of the land
forces with planes was by means
of strips Of white cloth, called
panels, which were laid on the
ground in sight from above In
various designs to convey diff
ferent messages.
In a secluded dell, soldier
carefully laid out his panels and
then sank into slumber in the
soft hay Of a nearby barn. He
was awakened by the hum of an
airplane motor. When the plane
continued to circle the field. he
arose in puzzled bewilderment in
time to see COW making OFF
across the meadow, munching on
one Of the signal panels which
trailed after her.
