A Six-Day Deer
Season To Open
On November 20
Twelve Full Counties and
Parts of Four Others Will
Afford Popular Sport.

Indications are that the coming

day morning, November 20, at sun
rise and will continue until sunset
Thursday, November 25; in IL north

sunrise until sunset each day.
Open counties are Cook, Lake, st

ship roads.
Harry E. Speakes, director of Game
and Fish, stresses the fact that hunt
ers are themselves responsible for
the location of boundary lines. Ad-
ditional game wardens have been
placed in the deer country to enforce
hunting regulations.
A new requirement in the regula-
tons this year is that all deer taken
must be removed from the point
where taken and brought to their
final destination within two days
after the close of the season.
Neither is there a confusing fawn
regulation this year. The experience
last year proved that this regula-
ton resulted in many fawns being
killed and left in the woods and
mature deer taken in place of them.
Hunters going to the Superior
Game refuge open territory to hunt,
are warned that all game refuge reg
ulations apply there at all times ex-
cept during the six days of the season
within the area specified. Hence
guns must be kept in cases until
opening day, and must be encased
Immediately upon the closing of the

Dedicate Their
New Auditorium
DIR. George Selke of St.
Cloud Teachers College
Gives Dedication Talk.

A large audience attended the dedi-
cation ceremony of Sandstone's new
school auditorium and gymnasium
Tuesday night and heard a fitting
program. Numbers were furnished
by the high school orchestra under
the direction of R. S. Sivesind, and
also selections by high school singers.
An exhibition of physical education
was presented by class under the
direction of w. H. Sanford. The

A Necessary Structure.
Sandstone, as many communities
throughout the nation, needed badly
the convenience the new auditorium
will offer. For many years the main
functions of the community have
been undertaken in the various small
halls of the community and in the
theatre building. Basketball was
played, both by the town teams and
the high school in the theatre, until
recently that place was remodeled
into a modern theatre with per-
manently fixed seats which made
it impossible to use for that purpose.
Therefore the new gym will again
place Sandstone back in its ranking
as leader in the field of competitive
basketball
A PWA Project.
The structure was financed by the
Sandstone district by raising $4,000
through sale of bonds and S12,531
from taxes and other receipts. This
sum was aided by an allotment of
S24,980 from the federal government
under the PWA, making a total of
$55,511. Included in this cost were
alterations and new equipment in
the main building of the school.
The new building, which is con-
Structed of local stone cut and quar-
ried from the local quarry, is 74x86
and has seating capacity in the au-
ditorium part of between 500 and 600.
It is constructed with what is called
a stage gymnasium, which can be
converted into either a stage or
playing floor in a few minutes by
the operation of curtains on tracks
attached to the ceiling

ALEXANDRIA, Va, March 4.-Lo-
cal police admitted today that the
disappearance and death of 15-year-
old Luther Cummins probably will go
down in their annals as unsolved. It
was explained that persons who made
statements to police at the time OF
the boys disappearance last July 16

made them.
Commonwealth Attorney Albert ".
Bryan said today he will personally
question witnesses at the inquest Sat-
urday morning in an effort to bring
out some new information regarding
the disappearance Of the boy and a
possible motive for his death.
Capt. John s. Arnold, chief Of police,
declared that every possible clue had
been run down and that nothing had
developed of a tangible nature. He
also contended there is no indication
that the boy was murdered, as has
been claimed by members OF Luther's
family.
Capt. Arnold said that police, after
taking pictures of the scene, had sifted
the earth in their search for clues.
More than a score of witnesses are
expected to be summoned to testify
