Osakis ObEterated
Homecoming

over him, a last man had hit Jim,
bent him back over pile up. Jim
didn't get up. They carried him
off the field, and that Osakis team,
with no signal from anyone, ran
as one man to pat the lad on the
back as he left the ball game. The
injury was a dislocated knee cap.
From then on in Sank Centre,
lead mainly by Jim Arneson, who
came back to play the ball game
of his career, was in that ball
game.
But their one big break they
missed. It started when on that
injury play Osakis was penalized
Is yards for unnecessary roughness
that gave Sank Centre a first
down. Two other penalties, in all
netting rs yards, gave Sank Centre
three first downs by penalty before
the half ended. But they couldn't
unfold the right play. On the last
attempt before the half Jim Arne-
son tossed a pass, and Sennes, with
head up, intercepted it.
From then on neither team
threatened to score. The chart
shows play well in mid-field. Osa-
kis went strictly on the defensive;
Sank Centre played like mad to lick
up that deficiency. But they
didn't have enough. They rolled
for four first downs and good yard
age in the third quarter and an
other in the fourth. They held
Osakis to one first down in the
last half. They rolled for more
yardage than Osakis did. Osakis
held that scant lead, but it was
enough.
But this Jim Arneson, with such
lads as Theodore Trutna, Cheney,
Herman Lying, played his head off
to make up for Cooper's loss and
his own earlier punt loss. He punt

of Ina B. Rowe. Miss Rowe, extern
sion specialist in nutrition at Uni
versity Farm, is a very experienced
demonstration in the field of COM
mercial cooking and will conduct a
splendid school on those two days.
Working through the Agricultural
Extension Division at University
Farm, Miss Rowe will stress dairy
products in all of her demonstra-
tons. Since this area of Mime
sofa is so dependent on dairy pro-
ducts, farmers and townspeople
alike should make every effort to
build up a good attendance for
these cooking schools. So farm
ers as a whole have paid all
attention to the production of dairy
and other farm products and have
not spent enough thought on the
distribution and use of these dairy
products by the consuming public.
This is one opportunity where 1t
will be possible to help build up
interest in the consumption Of dairy
products and farm support is ask
ed for in putting this over as well
as good attendance from people in
town.
Poultry flock owners interested
in carrying on a record project to
find out the gains made for their
poultry business are urged by the
county agents office at st. Cloud
to enter the poultry record project
for the state This project is car
ried out under the supervision of
Cora Cooke, extension specialist in
poultry, and the time for enrolling
in the project Is now at hand.
Miss Cooke will supply record
blanks and books, summarize re-
ports, and send copies of the sum-
maries to the various cooperators.
She will assist in the counties
where possible and send each CO.
operator an annual statement of his
flock business and a study COM
pairing his flocks with the average
of all flocks over the state enrolled
in the project.
The cooperator Is asked to send
an inventory of birds and feed at
the beginning and end Of each year,
to keep a daily egg record, and
supply a monthly statement of the
stock at hand at the beginning and
end of each month. Likewise a
record should be kept Of all receipts
and expenses and an estimate made
of the time used daily in caring
for the flock. Cooperators should
be prompt and regular in sending
in their reports and should feel free
to send in questions and comments.

All flock owners interested in en-
rolling should contact the county
agents office.
Since there have been numerous
outbreaks Of hog cholera in the
southeast corner of the county, the
county agents office at st. Cloud
is making every effort to familiar
ize swine producers with the dis
ease. Science has been unable to
find the exact cause of this fatal
disease of swine, but it is well
known that the substance or virus
causing hog cholera is so small that
it cannot be seen under powerful
microscope. The virus however, is
so strong that one-hundredth Of a
thimbleful of blood from a cholera
infected hog injected into the blood
of a healthy animal will cause it
to become seriously i'll within five
to eight days. The disease is spread
largely by infected animals. Pigs
may appear sound and healthy, but
in a few days cholera may break
out in the herd. For this reason
swine should be purchased only
from herds known to the disease
free. Dogs, cats, and other animals
may carry cholera from farm to
farm, and even the water draining
from infected yards may spread
cholera. Actually the disease is so
infectious that it can be spread
about on the shoes of persons walk
ing in and out Of hog lots.
An early symptom of cholera is
refusal to eat solid food. Fever of
ten occurs, and affected animals
may become so weak that they
walk with a webbing, staggering
gait. Whenever any Of these SYM
toms occur, a veterinarian should
be consulted at once and the sick
pigs should be isolated from the
rest of the herd. There is only
one known preventative against
cholera to use on healthy pigs that
have not yet been exposed to chol-
era and that is the double treat
ment method Of vaccination. Un-
der this plan both serum and life
virus are used. For all practical
purposes a hog develops an i'm
munity for life.
For a number Of years the coun-
ty agents office has conducted one
cholera school each year in the
county. Only one Of these can be
held per county and plans are un-
derway to have another one in the
county during January. DR.. w. A..
Billings, extension veterinarian at
University Farm, is always in
charge Of these schools.

Brang-Van Beck

Brang-Van Beck
The St. Andrews church of Green
wald was the scene of a very pref
ty wedding Monday morning, Oct.
7th, at 9 o'clock, when Miss Beata
Van Beck, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Albert Van Beck, Of Green
wald, became the bride of Edward
Brang, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Nick
Brang, of Metre Grove. Rev. Faith
er Funk officiated at the ceremony
and nuptial mass.
Attending the bridal couple were
Miss Monica Van Beck, sister of
the bride as bridesmaid, and Joan
Welle, niece Of the groom as flower
girl. Henry Schmiesing, cousin of
the groom, was bestman.
Quaint simplicity marked the dis
Effectiveness of the gown worn by
the bride, which was a period mod
ell fashioned Of white faille taf-
feta. Featuring a square neckline,
and shirred bodice, with full pulled
sleeves, 1t revealed a wide, snug
fitting waistband, from which hung
a full, gathered skirt, floor length.
Interesting details were the cone
shaped tufted pockets on the skirt,
made Of shirred rows of ruffles
in self material. A French nose
gay nestled in the center of each
pocket from which hung narrow
white velvet streamers the length
of her skirt. Her veil was made
of bridal illusion, outlined with
Chantilly lace, and was caught
from a tiara of simulated orange
blossoms. Cut in the new square
design, it hung fingertip length.
Her bouquet was made up of yell
low roses, baby chrsanthemums and
fern. IL
Her bridesmaid was gowned in
Snow Rose faille taffeta, also a
period model, fashioned with a
square yoke Of matching colored
Alencon lace. Like the brides
gown, it featured full shirred bod
ice, and wide waistband, this same
type lace repeated to form the
waistband and cuffs of the short
pulled sleeves. Her bouffant skirt,
which hung floor length, revealed
tinted satin sandals to match. Com
pleting her ensemble was the gar
land of velvet astors she wore in
her hair from which fell face veil
Of illusion, shoulder length, also in
Snow Rose. She carried a bouquet
Of baby chrysanthemums, POM
poms and fern. The flower girls
gown was in blue trimmed with
Snow Rose faille taffeta, and short
puffed sleeves. She wore a bow
in her hair and carried a colonial
bouquet of roses, pom-poms and
fern. Both wore gold heart shaped
lockets, which were gifts of the
bride.
An all day reception was held
at the home of the brides parents
for a large number of relatives and
friends, where the home was dec

ed, he passed, he carried the ball
more than he ever had in any
game before. He rolled through for
a % yard run in one Of the best
broken field runs of the game
They followed that up with a re-
verse that sent Kurrell out for a
fifteen yard streak. Then 1t halted.
That reverse for Eddie Kurrell
was almost the play. Right down
the center he wheeled into the Sec
ondary, snaked his way through
every man-but one. That one was
Caughren. Kurrell never saw him !;
Caughren swept in fast, dumped
the play. And Caughren saved that
lead on Sank Centres only real
threat.
Sank Centre pulled everything
out of the bag they had. Late
in the fourth quarter they started
to roll again. A triple reverse,
Vandesteeg to Arneson to Veeder,
rolled for seven yards. Kuefler on
a reverse got five yards.
They sprung Kuefler again for
five yards, and then in midfield
there were just 20 seconds of the
ball game left. In rapid succession
Arneson uncorked three passes.
Two Of them incomplete; the third
intercepted by Caughren who rae
ed to the Sank Centre 30 yard line
as the ball game ended.
Early in the game it was certain
that punting, even so and IS yard
kicks by Cooper, played little ad-
vantage. One of Cooper's IS yard
kicks, good in any other ball game
of the season for a gain on the ex-
change, was nullified by Caughren's
speed. That little back toted that
ball back 80 yards. On kickoffs
he was equally fast. But with his
speed Osakis couldn't spring him.
Sennes' passing arm must share
with Calvin Swore's receiving
hands the honors for the ball game
