Two casualties of a serious
nature occurred in the ranks OF
the C. U. team with Irish Carroll
and Dick Arnold, regular right
guard, suffering from bad leg in
jurieS.
There is a possibility that Car
roll will be ready for his right
halfback post against Loyola, but
Arnold is definitely out, and will
remain so for the next 10 days, is
is believed. Carroll received a
bad muscle injury to his right
leg and a bad beating about the
ribs. Arnold suffered a sprained
ankle which laid him low early in
the fray. Both spent yesterday
afternoon under the lights at the

Stolen Grid
Plays Mean
Nothing
By KIRK MILLER
Times Sports Editor


The student publ
cation at Catholic Uni
versity, I am afraid,
has made itself look a
little ridiculous off the
campus and among
sophisticated football
folk by claiming a
Cardinal gridiron for
nation had been be-
trayed by members of
the student body who
spied on secret prac-
tice from a towering
nearby vantage.
Too, the embryo editors, oy
only partially revealing facts
they claimed to be in their
possession, rather hurled a
boomerang at the fair name OF
the institution under whose
colors they publish.
Alleging the names of the stu
dent or students guilty Of play
ing false to the football forces
were known, and failing to iden-
tify the culprits, leaves any stu
dent at Brookland more or less
open to suspicion.
So Much Loose Talk
It leaves them all open to a
good deal of rubbing and joshlng,
which lads of college age can
usually hand out and take in
equal quantity but which is also
a sort of unSavory pastime in
this case, though innocently in
tended.
However, that is a problem
which Catholic University can
undoubtedly handle within its
own household.
Here are the sportive phases
of the revelations and the nor
NAL reaction of people beyond
the boundaries of the good col
lege:
In the first place, no harm
vas done to the C. U. team,
which won the game. The foe
supposed to have been transmit
ted the formations or plays or
signals, could not use the alleged
information. Despite that fact,
a sort of stencil is left at c. us
door because of a half-hearted
expose which proved nothing and
convicted nobody.
No Subterfuge Needed
In the second place, C. us foe
Of that day, or the Saturday before
or the Saturday afterward have
all the opportunity in the wide
wide world to familiarize them
selves with C. us football style
and characteristics without any
one connected with Catholic Uni
versity being used as an inter-
mediary. -.
Thirdly, the game was not Of
sufficient sectional or intersec-
tional Importance for even the
gamblers to wish to control the
outcome.
Fourth, every qualified football
observer will tell you that stolen
formations, plays or signals, have
such a remote chance to control
the outcome of game, that the
risk of getting caught and exposed
so far overshadows their value
that the comparison is silly.
What Wins the Games
Football games, my friends, are
won on two recognized and easily
identified germs.
The first and most important
Is fundamental football.

Committee Will
Consider Holiday
Closing Problem

An agreement that all grocery
stores in Redwood Falls will be
closed Memorial day, Saturday,
May 80, was made at a meeting
of retail merchants in the Civic
and Commerce club rooms Monday
evening. Stores will remain open
Friday evening, May 20, however.
The matter of remaining closed
or open July 4 and on other holi-
days during 1886 was tabled after
considerable discussion and little
disagreement among grocers. A
committee to draw a tentative pro-
gram for holiday closing will be
appointed by X. w. Stockton, pre-
sident of the association and its
plan will be presented for a vote
at the next dinner meeting of the
organization, tentatively scheduled
for the early part of May.
Strong protests against the pro-
posal to keep stores open Wednes-
day nights were voiced, interested
merchants agreeing that it is
neither profitable nor an accom-
to patrons.
The association passed resolu-
ton for presentation before the
city council, complaining that the
city ordinance against peddling
and selling from trucks is not en-
forced as it should be. They also
discussed the possibility of a city
ordinance prohibiting merchants
from bringing in new merchandise
after advertising closing-out sales.

FARMER BREAKS
NECK IN FALL
FROM TRACTOR

Fairmont-Apparently suffering
from a stroke, Martin Pape, 45,
farmer near Truman, broke his
neck when he fell from his tractor
seat and then was run over as the
driverless machine circled back to
the scene of the accident.
Officials believe Pape became
unconscious while driving on high
way 15 but did not fall off when
the tractor went down a steep en-
bankment and crossed the ditch.
1t was while the machine was as
cending the bank next to the fence
that he was thrown clear. The
tractor crashed through the woven
wire, tearing up 15 rods of it and
after circling in loops of 150 feet
diameter, passed over the body.
Otto Nase, a neighbor and
Frank O'Connor of Fairmont
found the body and Nase stopped
the tractor which was having diff
ficulty climbing a steep grade
when he got there. The accident
happened only so rods from the
victims home where he lived with

Families With Employable
Members Lose County Help
More Stringent Rules Made
At Meeting of Public
Welfare Board

Relief families in Redwood
county having employable mem-
bers will not be extended aid af-
ter May 1, the county board OF
public welfare ruled Thursday
night at its regular meeting.
The board felt that there are
sufficient openings for employ
ment so that anyone able to work
should be able to find it. It was
pointed out that many clients were
reluctant to accept work which is
on a part time basis but that here
after they will be encouraged to
take any employment. In reports
submitted by Mrs. Eleanor Bue,
county relief worker, it was shown
that relief budgets were restrict
ed during the preceding month
more closely than ever before and
the board recommended that ef-
forts be made to further reduce
the budget by inducing every en-
ployable client to find work.
Provision was made that all
persons receiving relief must
plant and care for garden, those
not having garden space to con-
suit the relief office where ar
rangements will be made for a
plot at the county home.
