The returns conceded with pub
LEGATION of a Newsweek poll of
Wa shin & ton political writers,
which named President Roosevelt,
Secretary Of State Cordell Hull
and Sen. Arthur II. Vandenberg,
r.. Mich, in that order, as the
three men best qualified to be
president.
Roosevelt ran away from
the field in first choices and
point score In this poll. But
choices were widely scattered.
He had only IS first choices,
ms against Sc d istrib uted
among IA other persons.
Vice President John n.
Garner was 18th and New
York District Attorney
Thomas y. Dewey was 18th.
Gov. John w. Bricker. of Ohio,
was No. 20. The poll consid-
cred only qualifications for
office, and not the relative
chance Of nomination or
election.
While candidates pondered these
returns Republicans were jubilant
and some Democrats were uneasy
over the congressional district
voting in Ohio.
The Ohio figures, for what they
may be worth, show that the Re-
publicans increased their proper
ton of the vote by seven per cent
in Tuesdays 22nd and nth con-
gressional districts They won
both seats. OF which one had been
Democratic since 1880. when the
COP suffered its first post-World

the point is that all down the line

They clicked off the finale Of the
first year in the second decade of
Sauk Centre high schools football
revival. It was the first year
of the revised coaching system, un-
flying the efforts of five men.
It was a real bid for greater men,
tion in this area. For reasons un-
beknown this football team, that
should have been easily the best
in the ten years, didn't develop to
that point. :.
They were in there time and
time again. In fact in the first
four encounters, against Ben
son, Ltchfield, Long Prairie
and Osalis, the boys were In
the battle all the way. But
Osal<is popped up with the
turning point. There was q de-
cided drop in morale In the club
after the injury that took Jim
Cooper out Of the lineup for
the season.
The Sauk Centre herald., 1940-11-14

Against Willmar, Glenwood and
Alexandria that ebb in morale con-
tinued to be the strong factor in
this clubs defeat. . It is to their
credit that they broke the dold-
runs in the final game against
Melrose. It is another way Of say
ing that no matter what the season
has held for either of these clubs
Melrose and Sauk Centre do do
battle and royalty, when they're
pitted against each other. Mel
rose won the game % to O. They
piled it up in a first half drive
that spanked on a recovered tumble
that resulted in a touchdown. =.
But in the last half, like Michigan
over Minnesota, Sauk Centre clear
ly marched up and down the field.
Twice Sauk Centre whackea
to the two yard line at Melrose,
twice to be penalized fifteen yards.
. Well, those are the breaks of
the ball game.

But It brought this out to
the satisfaction Of the fans that
Jim Arneson Is a heart player.
:. He was neither Outplayed
nor outmaneuvered at MelrOse.
Jim, heavy on the blocking as
signments when Cooper was
still I'm the lineup, switched on
his injury to take over the
punting and running jobs.
And he did 1t admirably. He
was never outfought in any ball
game. From those standpOints
he was probably the most val
Uable player Of the year. He
put on his greatest show
against Melrose, was not out
played nor outfought by their
ace scorer, Eichers. In that
game he had the backing of the
entire line and his baclfield
mates. With that football
for 1910 sings its local swan
song. ...
