!. And the fact that the

erage. =. And the fact that the
same team returns that last
year dark horsed its way thru
the tournament race, heightens
no less their anticipation of q
fine performance. -. Which all
adds up to? =. just this. -.
That the pressure Is going to be
terrific; that another champion
ship Is going to be difficult to.
get; that every team In the dis
trict Is going to be pointing for
this team. don't think It's
putting q damper on things to
point out that II they win the
tournament it'll be the tenth
wonder of the world. =. That
doesn't keep us from plugging
In there all the time. -.
Before we forget football entire
ly, here's a couple of developments.
This is the lady's department. Last
year we chronicled Of the uncanny
predictions of ardent fan Mrs. Dew
ey O'Gara, who charts the games
each Sattidy of the Gopher season.
I. Two weeks ago when hubby
came home at noon on Saturday he
inquired her thots on the Notre
Dance Gopher game. Get this. 3.
She said as how Minnesota would
take a licking 1910. . :. You check
the score yourself. Well, Sattidy
he tried her again. With the odds
on Wisconsin, she called for Min
nesota victory-though she admits
by no such margin as finally loom
ed. She doesn't call them pre-
dictions - but lunches. They're
probably just samples of woman's
intuition which no mere male can
hope to match with all his petty
figuring of the dope. 49,.
Before the Alex game, Mrs. r.
v. Plant, out here, promised the
football squad a turkey dinner.
II they defeated the Alex boys.
-. Well, they didn't defeat
them, but it ought to please
their tummies no end to know
Mrs. Plant was satisfied with
the scOreless tie. So the gas
trOnOmics are forth coming.
And isn't it rather lucky that
your correspondent was asked
to join the fray, too. I. Eel
lows, you better put on your
gloves when I start throwing
the fork In the direction of that
turk. Might get your hand
punctured.
And Ed Hagemeister confessed
that Saturday when Wisconsin took
it on the chin from the Gophers
was the first time in his life he had
bet against Minnesota. But he
Immediately proclaimed it the "best
dollar he had ever lost" -.
Well, the skating Kinks are
expected to shape up shortly.
Two are proposed. One at the
Fairgrounds: another at the
Fair Grounds. Both seem excel
lent spots. -. The sudden
freezeup kinda hOrsed matters
up for the boys. They were all
set to grade up their banks,
when the frost set in. Now they
may have to await snow to get
the bank protection. In the
interim stay of that lake for q
while. It's too darned cold for
swimming. And it has been Of
ficially called unsafe. It's
no good for skating anyhow; 1t
froze rough in a high wind. And
constitutes one of the major
tragedies in the skaters Hfe....
And pity Roy Scott. Fortunate
enuf to get back in the hamlet with
the first deer of the season, the
Major is taking the kidding OF the
skeptics. But we say no mar
can so graciously wear the grin the
Major sported, nor so exuberantl,
relate the tale of his bagging thu
deer by nine o'clock the opening
day-without actually having don'
so. :. We're with you, Roy. ;.
