ulated the students on finishing
their courses, but urged them by
all means to continue their studies

Just as soldiers are in the train

training camps for us in the home,

said. Developing these points, he
pointed to the integral part each
plays. He stressed the value of a
religious vocation, and that it is

Sank Centre
Won From
Belgrade
Final Score Sunday
z to Followed
5-5 From Week Ago

Sank Centres baseballers, after a
5-5 tie called on the six o'clock
Sunday law after twelve blistering
innings a week ago, made the play
off game good here Sunday when
they defeated Belgrade to 1 with
nine hits that punched four runs
in the eighth inning to put the
game on ice.
The team will play at Glenwood
next Sunday in another of the
summer series of games.
Belgrade scored a lone run in
the fifth inning on two walks, of
Sorenson, and a single by pitcher,
Anderson. Madsen, driven in by
Anderson's hit, scored.
In the first inning White opened
the hitting with a single. Shively
sacrificed to advance him, and
Reinardy's triple, hard hit, brought
in White. A double by Iwinski
brought in Reinardy and opened
the scoring. One run in the Sec
ond added when E. Proell came in
on a wild pitch, after he had net
ted single. No scoring then until
the eighth for Sank Centre and
only a single hit that bobbed up
in the 9Th frame.
In the eighth inning with four
runs on four hits and two errors,
the Sank Centre club nudged ahead
in it's scoring efforts. A firing
Chuck Anderson, on the Belgrade
mound, wavered to allow the bunch
ed hits and the errors aided the
scoring tricks.
While Belgrade contributed with
three errors, Sank Centre played
near errorless ball with only one

PRESENT AWARDS

Program

o. J. Jerde, of st. Cloud Teach
ers College, in speaking to the
graduates of the Class of 80, used
as his topic, Heritage of a Cen
Grafton" The commencement ad-
dress as given by him was timely
and carried a message of value not
only to the graduates but to all
present. The exercises Thursday,
June LIST, were largely attended.
Mr.. Jerde spoke of the facilities
and the fine heritage left to the
present generation by past genera
tions-but stated that we had failed
in some things. Our generation has
failed to inculcate a sense of mas
terry, of control of right and wrong.
1t is right to drive an automobile,
but it is wrong to drive 81 miles
per hour.
He stated that we have lost moral
and spiritual values. We call our
selves Christians, but how can we
reconcile ourselves to those things
now going on in Europe, in our
country, in Minnesota, which he
termed INSCRIPTIONS. A reiteration
of the old fundamental truths are
necessary and that we must estab-
lish ourselves in the precepts of
our forefathers.
The young people, he said, are
ready to save this country and are
willing to enter its service. 1t
must, however, be peace time ser
vice, constructive service. He advis-
ed the students to go on with their
training, stating that the high
school education is the base today.
He admonished the graduates to
live up to the ideals of their par
ents and teachers, and they will
have success, whether they are in
highest places or engaged in men
ial task. Mr.. Jerde closed with
Edwin Markham's poem, -Four
Things"
Musical numbers on the program
were rendered by a trio consisting
of Billy Kaufman, Ray Johnson and
Mark Ingersoll. Ruth Wosthoff
presented a trombone solo and the
Girls Glee Club rendered two fine
selections.
Miss Lucy Hunt presented COM
mercial badges to the following:
Kenneth Forsberg, SIS words per
minute for 10 minutes; Dorothy
Hansen, 70 words a minute; Lor-
raine Hansen, rs words per minute
Rose Weiss, SO words per minute, a
new record for the school. In
stenography, Lorraine Hansen and
Rose Weiss received awards.
E. w. Olson presented the Amer
lean Legion Citizenship Awards to
Lorraine Johnson and Russell Lar
son.
DR.. J. F. Dubois, president of the
school board, presented the diplo-
mas to the graduates, and Supt
w. A. Kohl presented certificates
to the thirteen members of the post
graduate class.
Rev. P. J. Jansen gave the in

ed the Benediction.

terests all over South America. This
was especially apparent in the Ar
gentine objections to the wording
of the resolution.
Argentina is the most important
Latin American state. Thousands
OF Germans in business there nat
urally have resented the growing
attitude of the Americas against
the German program. Recently, out
OF this resentment has come an es-
tablished resistance.
Members Blackballed.
A leading German club in Argen-
tina was ordered from Berlin to en-
phasize certain adherence to the
Nazi cause in the way of decorations
and ceremonial recognitions of the
Hitler regime. Members of the Ger
man colony who belonged to the
club, but who did not fall in with
the new Nazi order were black
balled and made the subject of So
cial pressure. This indicated the
close attention to the South Amer
ican situation which the Nazi
regime is giving all over South
America.
That German arms have been
landed both upon the eastern and
western coast Of South America
there seems no room to doubt. One
definite incident that has been re-
ported so often that everybody be-
lieves it, relates to a cargo of Ger
man beer which was delivered in a

the job, though saying little even
when some sort Of say is impera-
tive. Commissioner Helvering is
named sorrowfully by newspaper
men as the man almost nobody
ever interviews. Though that is
true, it is odd, for his broad, ami
able face, his full underlip, his open
gate, suggest q fellow who would be
tickled pink to sit down and talk
his head of.
1t isn't as though he had much
to conceal beyond that middle name
and the fact that his pleasant wife
is called Tinnie LudoWeine. That
he was born in Felicity, Ohio, is
quite in order When the Spanish
American War was boiling, he made
soldier good enough to wind up a
corporal, and when you recall that
then there were no o. T. C.'s to turn
out 9O-day lieutenants, corporals
chevron isn't bad -
Afterward he was a lawyer, prose-
cutor, banker. Congressman and
finally commissioner of internal
revenue. Not bad at all Neverthe-
less, If he we're locked in a room
with a clam the first sound prob
ably would not come from Mr.. Hell
vering.
OF and on he has been mentioned
for Secretary of War, the Senate,
the Craftsmanship of the Democratic
National Committee, but he has
never been persuaded to say so
much as word about any of the
rumors. He carries a cane and
there is growing conviction that
he does this because as often as
not he can point and so avoid open
ing his mouth.

officials who ordered it opened and
found that the beer barrels were
packed with German rifles. It had
been consigned to a German society.
That arms have been delivered Sc
cretly from Germany in Guatemala
has been charged so often that even
German propaganda no longer at
tempts to deny it.
These are incidents in the null
tiplying evidence that Germany has
engaged upon q definite forward
looking program of military prep
aration in South America. These
facts are not doubted here. They
formed basis for the surprising
unanimity with which the Pan
American Congress created it SOL

We may not have to wait longer
than the day after tomorrow for

F. D. RS report to Congress on the
state of the Union will certainly
have implications outrunning the
life Of the session, and give q glim-

else can carry the New Deal torch

dent has carefully guarded his mes
sage secrets. Though details re-
main to be supplied, its general lines
have been apparent. They will con-
Germ mainly the three R's-relief,
rearmament and reorganization.
Whenever this observer ventures
upon the precarious pastime of try
Ing to anticipate the next play to be
called by the New Deal quarterback,
he is reminded of q sage remark
once made by Nicholson, the wise
old owl who still sits at the right
hand side Of the throne, at least
in White House press conferences,
despite circumstantial tales that he
is playing ball these days with the
Farley-Garner outfit rather than
the boy scouts who have the masters

newspaper pal in Washington and
still the best beloved, said that the
safest guide to Roosevelt's mental
processes is never to forget that he's

Congress and the country, too, by
all advance signs, will find the
President standing by his guns with
ancestral tenacity on the subject of
Government reorganization. The
emphasis and Importance the ad-
ministration laid on the defeat Of
John O'Connor for reelection to
the House and to his old position as
key man In the Committee on Rules
was no idle bit Of Rooseveltian pique.
1t was notice to all concerned that
the pet project which OConnor
thwarted would be revived as soon
as his obstructive power was
crushed.

threshold OF the session. rearma-

the stellar opportunity and occasion
for showing the country that

veins. On the issue that q stupend-
Gus increase in national defense,
primarily in the air, is vital to
Americas security, Mr.. Roosevelt
is prepared to be as unbending as
Gibraltar. Assurance is ample that
he has struggle on his hands to
induce Congress to authorize 10000
warplanes for the Army and to step
up the total naval and military
budget from a present round billion
to some billion and half. The
message to Congress will leave no
doubt Of White House readiness to
do battle to the bitter end for the
rearmament program. Every sug-
