Takes Fourth Place In Class
c Event Competing With
Nations Best.

Clarence Hedloff won fourth place in
Glass c, the division for boys under 18
years, at the ski meet in Eau Claire,
Wis, Sunday. Several members of the
Ely Ski club participated in the meet.
A tryout meet will be promoted by
the club at the local slide, Sunday,
weather permitting. A cross country
race will be conducted at 10 A. M. and
a jumping event at P. M. The results
of both events will determine the stand
ing of the individual jumpers and will
aid in the selection of local representa-
tives for the Duluth tournament, set
for Jan. g.
Although severely handicapped by the
large and unfamiliar slide, according to
the boys who made the trip, the youth
full Hedloff held his own in field of
25 of the nations top-flight jumpers.
The same handicap was mainly re-
sponsible for the elimination of the
other Ely representatives, Ray Nyman,
Walter Jokela, Ray Tuomela and Will
liam Maxi, competing in Glass B.
The Eau Claire meet was the first of
the year in which the Ely boys took
part. It is hoped that few more
tournaments on large hills, facilities
that are not available locally, will suf-
flee in conditioning the jumpers for
the national championships scheduled
for Feb. at st. Paul.

Change of Administration
May Effect Game Wardens

Change in the state administration
set-up, with its attendant displacement
of heads of departments, anticipates a
strong possibility of a thorough revamp-
ing of the forces under these heads.
Unusual interest is centered on the
game and fish department and especi-
ally on the game wardens who were
placed, along with the supervisors, on
a merit system established in October,
1887.
The examination for appointment to
the responsible position on the merit
system was based directly on the work
and working knowledge of conservation
and protection of game and fish life,
as well as completed courses in ac-
credited schools.
The system also provided for the ap-
pointment of all game wardenS from an
eligible list established by this exam
ination. This merit system also pro-
vides appeal rights in court over the
Commissioners decision, presenting a
state warden with the right to have
his grievance heard by an impartial
court.
The sportSmen, as well as the war
denS are fearful that in spite of the
fine record made by the capable or
ganization of which Minnesota boasts
of men highly trained in their work,
these men have no assurance that they
viii be protected in their jobs.
The wardenS in this immediate

church parlors.
Other officers elected were Fred
Handberg, vice president; Ray Reigel,
secretary-treaSurer; w. c. Carlson,
Barney Agnew, C. G. Haugen and E. w.

A most appetizing dinner was served

composed of H. R. Browne, VIM. Jones,
Jr., Morris Sternberg, w. Langen, I.
Martel1 and Wayne BrowneH.
The program was in charge of the
Membership Committee, Fred Hand
berg, P. Schaefer, B. C. Carlson, c. H
Haugen and James I. Laing.

munity songs were sung under the di-
rection of Sig Olson with Miss Peggy
McMahan at the piano. Following the
singing Miss McMahan was presented
with a gift on behalf of the club in ap-
probation of her services during the
year and was highly commended by Mr.
Olson who made the address.
A business meeting followed the show
ing of five reels of motion colored pic
lures by Ray Hoefler. They were reels
of ski jumping taken at the Ely slide
last winter; reels of fishing scenes on
several of the lakes in this section;
game pictures and scenes showing the

After engaging behind closed doors
for over five hours in what was said to
have been bitter debate on the order
of the state central committee of the
party for purging the ranks of all Com
munist delegates, the party opened the
business in what was claimed to have
been the calmest in its history.
Senator Lommen, who introduced the
anti Communist resolution at the state
convention, was scored in the star
chamber session. The Senator was ac-
cused Of having introduced the Red"
issue for personal reasons and in reply
he stated that the resolution was not
introduced by any clique but by old
guard members of the party who saw
the need for cleaning up the party and
rebuilding for the future.
Among the resolutions passed by the
convention were those asking the legis-
lature to set up a civil service law which
gives consideration for prior or present
service and placing education and ex-
perience on a common level in selecting
employees for the state; providing pro-
lection for local farmers against Wis

Chippewa Indian treaty of 1889.
