Highway Patrol Busy
Past Eight Months.

Minnesota's Highway patrol was in
strumental in collecting $98,923 for the
state in the first eight months of 1898
as compared with $65,743 in the same
period of 1882, according to a report
made to Highway Commissioner N. w
Elsberg by John p Arnoldy, chief OF
the patrol. This is an increase OF
$33 100, or over so per cent and repre-
sents money the state would not have
collected without the patrol.
Closer checking of motor vehicle IL
censes and equipment is responsible
for the increase, Chief Arnoldy said
Fully 80 per cent of the collections came
from operators of trucks from other
states who do business in Minnesota
and had not been using Minnesota IL
censeS.
While the patrolmen ana the six
license inspectors who work under pa
troll supervision paid particular atten-
ton to foreign truck companies, they
did not let down in their other duties
Chief Arnoldy said. More warnings
were issued to drivers for traffic Of
lenses than in the same period of last
year. However, the Patrol obtained un-
usually fine cooperation from the
driving public, the chief stated, and it
was not necessary to make as many
arrests as formerly to enforce the
warnings.

courts of less than rs feet, two
lines may be used, so that the
offensive half of the court measures
40 feet. Where this 40 foot line
encroaches within the foul line ON
exceptionally small courts, it has
been ruled that the prolongation
of the foul line win mark the
10 second line.
}. Only the first player to receive
the ball in the offensive zone may
pass the ball back over the center
line.
). Officials MUST handle the ball on
all out of bounds play, placing it
to the floor, to prevent quick ac-
ton returns by the team awarded
the ball.

applied only to players in the free
throw area receiving the ball with
their backs to the basket" ap-
plies now to all players receiving
in that area regardless of position
of the body.
}. A player may re-enter the game
twice.
}. A ball on the basket rim may be
batted in providing no part of the
basket is touched.
!. When games are played in quar-
ters-usually in high schools-the
second and fourth periods will not
start from a center tap, but will
be resumed from out of bounds
nearest the point where the play
ceased and with the ball in posses
sion of the team last in control.
;. Several points covering legal and
illegal running with the ball are
defined in detail in the official rule
book.

march of the MichiganderS, a trick
which no team has been able to do
this season. A Minnesota victory would
not come as surprise to your COR
respondent. The Gophers are fresh
from two weeks rest in which a lot
of faults have been corrected while the
Wolverines had tough fight with Iowa
last Saturday
Minnesota was out to shock Iowa
and actually electrocuted the
Hawkeyes but they will have to
turn on a lot more juice to do any
shocking of Michigan. The VOL
verines are the favorite to cop the
contest with their Punt, Pass and
Prayer game, which in pas. years
has worked well against Minnesota
teams.
This year, however, the Gophers have
team that has been quick to capitalize
on the breaks as Michigan teams are
wont to do. The Minnesota team looks
and is better than last season, with
a better defense and a more versatile
offensive game than last years team.
This column likes the chances of the
Gophers tomorrow and looks for them
to stop Michigan in their drive for

We admit that the Wolverines
are big and bad, but who's afraid
of the big bad wolf?

The 1888 football season is over for
the Ely high school gridders. The
game with Gilbert, postponed from
October 18th to last Saturday, was
showed out and called off for the
season. The Ely team played six games
this year and hung up very creditable
record. The locals won four contests
tied one and lost one, all of which adds
up to a successful season.
The Ely eleven won games from
Biwabik, Tower, Virginia and Aur-
ora, played scOfeless tie with
International Falls and lost to
Eveleth. In losing to Eveleth, the
locals displayed their poorest form
of the season by sp0tting the range
team two touchdOwns early in the
game. After this bad start Ely
played their opponents even the
rest of the game.
On a basis of games played in this
the 9th district, the Ely team can lay
claim to the championship honors in
the district, which includes Aurora, BIZ
wabik, Eveleth, Ely, Gilbert, Interna-
tional Falls, Mountain Iron, Tower and
Virginia The writer expects that our
claim will possibly not go over so big
in certain quarters and welcomes any
one who wishes to discuss the matter
Comparative records of games played in
this district give Ely the edge in final
ratings and yours truly will be only too
glad to prove his contention.
Bull high school is being herald
ed as the range football champion
because of an indicated season.
Maybe so, but Bull didn't get the
competition on their end of the
range that the nine teams in this
district gave each other, in fact if
Aurora, Ely, Eveleth or Virginia had
Bulbs schedule, they would in all
probability turn in an undefeated
record.
In games between teams in this dis
trict and the 18th the past season. this
district holds "a distinct advantage as
to wins and losses Although Bull de-
feated Aurora by two touchdowns, well,
so did Ely. All of this brings out, that,
in laying claim to any championship,
Bull had better confine itself to their
own 18th district for when they step
into the 9th, it's taking in too much
territory.
So, well concede Buhl the 28th
district championship for that's
none of our business but when
claims are made about any SUI
premacy over the 9th district Wen
rise a..u cast vote to the contrary,
knowing well that such a claim
hasn't leg to stand on.
The Minnesota football team will
receive it's toughest test of the season
tomorrow afternoon when they play
the Michigan Wolverines at Ann Arbor
The Gophers will try to stop the victory
