WILLMAR VICTORS

inser, the pass was good for a first
down.
Willmar banged for another to
the Sank Centre ten yard line
where fullback Neunsinger slipped
on the first attempt for no gain.
Center Hansmann stopped Langag-
er as he broke over tackle. On
an attempted pass another penalty
stemmed the advance. But quick
as lightning Doug Langager I'M
corked the play. His pass to Law
Ter scored.
In the face Of three penalties in
one drive, Willmar had licked up
three successive first downs, COM
pleted five passes. It was that
aerial attack that turned the trick.
Lorinser held the ball and Doug
Langager booted the extra point.
From the outset of the game
Sank Centre couldn't get its attack
rolling. Willmar picked up three
scattered first downs that were on
ly temporary gains. For a time
the game resolved itself into a
punting duel between the toes Of
Jim Arneson and Doug Langager
and in this fracas Jim bettered
attempts. His punts were well
placed, long and difficult to hand
lie. On the first two exchanges
Sank Centre was 20 yards to the
good.
Then late in the first quarter
Dave Vandesteeg recovered a FUN
BILE on the Sank Centre 80 yard
line and it looked like it might
be break. But Sank Centre had
to punt out. Willmar failed on her
attempt. Then Sank Centre tried
wheeling out its aerial game that
ended in Don Langager's intercept
ton that lead to the score.
Opening Of the second half found
the first team on the bench, and
a group Of second string boys many
of whom had seen no service under
fire this season started. Lead main
ly by Donald Mooney, freshman,
whose work in that first minute
gave him a halfback berth for the
rest of the game, these second team
lads rolled up the initial first down
for Sank Centre.
Then into the game went the first
team. Taking that lead Vande-
steeg, Mooney and Arneson alter
mated Juggling to complete another
succession. They completed anoth-
er by virture Of Vandesteegs pass
the first one completed for Sank
lCanfra-fn KnofIor fov. ,,ino xyo ri,
Sank Centre rolled to midfield.
Again that bugaboo of pass inter-
ception halted any Sank Centre
hopes. This time 1t was Lorinser
who intercepted long 80 yard bull
let from Arneson intended for Paul
Kuefler. -"
A series of two fifteen yard PEN
alties stopped Willmar's attack, set
them way back in their own terri
tory. On the third time Sank Gen.
ire wound up with the ball on Will
mars 20 yard line, their first look
at pay dirt territory.
That scoring hope faded quickly.
MONEYS attempt to get anywhere
was smeared. Bud Veeder, stand
ing on the goal line, had Jim Arne-
sons long pass right on his finger
tips-but 1t fell to the ground. That
ended 1t. Arneson punted out.
Doug Langager raced all over the
back lot and was finally brought
down on his own yard line.
Then Herman Lying streaked in
to tackle Langager behind the goal,

CAPITOL
-NeUS
just What is the Reason?
BY Harold Knutson


Election is drawing nigh and it
would never do to go into the fin
ais with the American Medical As
ISOLATION solidly opposing the
draft" candidate for a third term.
Sometime back the New Deal de-
cided to regiment the practice of
medicine in the United States. In
fact, it was so insistent that this
RECOMMENDATION be brought about at
once that criminal proceedings
were instituted against the ANA,
alleging that it was combination
in restraint Of trade and q violation
of the antitrust laws. Naturally,
the American Medical Association,
which has always prided itself on
its self-sacrifice for human welfare,
deeply resented the allegation that
it was motivated by mercenary mo-
tives. In refutation Of that allega-
ton I dare say that any practicing
physician, in any locality, can pro-
duce unpaid accounts running into
thousands of dollars which repre-
sents services performed for strict
ly humanitarian reasons with little
hope of remuneration. Yet these
noble men have been obliged to
pay not only rent and living ex-
penses, but taxes as well.
Mr.. Robert jackson, the Attor-
ney General, has suddenly learned
during the past few days that the
docket of the Federal court Is so
cluttered that it would be impossib-
lie to prosecute the physicians and
surgeons at this particular time.
Some persons wonder If political
expediency dictated this change of
attitude on the part of the Roose-
welt administration, and they are
also wondering If the prosecutions
will be resumed after election.
Three Day Recesses
The House Of Representatives
has definitely gone on record
against adjournment. The member
ship feels that with world condi-
tions as they now are Congress
should maintain a status that
would enable 1t to assemble on a
few hours notice without depend
ing on the President to issue the
necessary call.
In view Of the campaign and the
fact that many members felt that
they should go home and look after
their fences, an agreement has been
reached between the Democrats and
Republicans to go In for three-day
recesses, which means that the
House will meet on Mondays and
Thursdays.
The Minority Leader, Mr.. Martin
has selected the Republican Whip
Mr.. Englebright of California, and
myself to remain in Washington
and represent the minority during
the period that this arrangement is
in effect. Unfortunately, I will not
be able to attend the House ses-
sions for a few days as am con-
fined to the hospital with an at
tack Of bronchitis that has kept
me in bed for fifteen days. I hope
to be out before this letter appears
in print and to return home for at
least a week before election. Un-
der the circumstances, must ap-
peal to my friends in the Sixth
District to look after my interests
during my enforced absence.

Junior High
Glass Play
Is

Presumably for the first time In
the Cougar history Of the Sank
Centre high school, a Federal
amusement tax will be levied
against tickets sold for class plays,
it was announced by Supt. e. w.
Olson this week as the 13-member
cast of the Junior class presenta-
ton, big Hearted Herbert" went
into the third week Of rehearsals
under the direction of Miss Mar
jorie Swanson, English instructor.
The play, with seven boys in the
group Of thirteen in the cast, will
be given at 800 o'clock Friday eve
ming, November 18th, in the senior
high school auditorium.
It was announced that class plays
will be perhaps the only school
activities not exempt from the Fed
eral tax, it was pointed out. I'm
der a ruling, A. B. Caldwell, dep
uty commissioner Department of
Education, advises that all athletics
and interscholastic activities under
the auspices Of the Minnesota State
High School League, Of which the
Sank Centre school is a member,
are exempt under a blanket exemp-
ton.
It Is apparent, Mr.. Olson ven
tured, that this marks the first
time that schools have had to
figure such levy. There is no
evidence that in the years of
1917-18, during the last war,
that such a tax was applicable
to school events.
Football games and athletic con-
tests will be exempted, Attorney
General J. A. A. Burnquist ruled
for the department of education
'if the funds derived therefrom are
administered by the school district
authorities"
Under the setup of the Mime
sofa State High School League
funds are administered in that fas-
hion. Making class plays eligible
for the tax is the fact that funds
are not so administered but are
activities conducted by and for
the benefit of groups Of pupils,
such as class plays" the ruling
further states.
Class play proceeds go into a
class fund, parts of which in the
case Of the Junior class are used
for the entertaining Of the seniors
at the Junior-Senior Prom. Such
activities are specifically ear-mark-
ed under the ruling as not exempt
from the tax. &c
For this play school authorities
have placed the ticket admission
for adults at thirty cents, includ-
ing the tax Of three cents.
Miss Swanson announced the
cast this week including: Herbert

mind" was the subject Of the
lesson-sermon In all Christian
Science churches and societies, yes
terday.
The Golden Text was from Psalms
147:5. sGreat is our Lord, and of
great power: his understanding is
infinite"
Among the citations which CON-
prised the lesson-sermon were the
following from the Bible, my SOL,
if thou wilt receive my words, and
bide my commandments with thee;
So that thou incline thine ear unto
wisdom, and apply thine heart to
understanding; Yea, if thou criest
after knowledge, and liftest up thy
voice for understandings; If thou
seekest her as silver, and searchest
for her as for hid treasures; Then
shalt thou understand the fear of
the Lord, and find the knowledge
of God. For the Lord giveth wis
dom: out of his moth cometh know
ledge and understanding" prov.
2:1-6).
The lesson-sermon also included
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health With Key to the Scrip
ture," by Mary Baker Eddy, mind
Is God. The exterminator of error
is the great truth that God, good,
is the only Mind, and that the sup
posititious opposite of infinite Mind
called devil or evils not Mind,
is not Truth, but error, without in
telligence or reality. There can be
but one Mind, because there is but
one God; and if mortals claimed no
other Mind and accepted no other,
sin would be unknown. We can have
but one Mind, if that one is infinite.
We bury the sense Of infinitude,
when we admit that, although God
is infinite, evil has a place in this
infinity, for evil can have no place;
where all space is filled with God"
