Journey to the Worlds End

lated from the Danish by
NJ. A. Michael. Ne1D York:
Doubleday, Doran & Co., Inc.
This is eScapism with a vengeance,
for surely no place is so immune
to the worlds present troubles as
that wild, cold waste at the South
ern tip of South America, where
Chile and Argentina come together
in the old TERRA del Fuego. This
book is description of journey
by a Danish author. 1t contains
the usual travel book description
and history, both probably generally
unknown to United States readers.
Mr.. Mielche rejects completely the
often-told stories about cannibalS
among the native Indians of the
region. They were wild, vicious men,
he writes, but there is overwhelming
evidence that Darwin was COM
pletely wrong in attributing canni-
balism to them.
This book is lightly and agreeably
written, and it Is illustrated with
marginal drawings by the author.

CONFERENCE GAMES
Test Game With
Benson Friday;
Appleton Tuesday

Benson and Sauk Centre race to
the boards all even for their meet
ing Friday night here as Harold
Rasmussen's Main Streeters dive
headlong into the West Central
Conference tussle and meet their
first major opponent of the sea-
son after they had shellacked Grey
Eagle with a 4S to tuneup.
Benson becomes the first
real test for with their coinci-
dental S5 to 8 victory over Muir
dock they are expected to flash
a major defensive and pow
erful offensive at the Sauk
Centre club here tomorrow
evening, Friday, at 8:15. A
preliminary second team en-
counter will begin at 700.
Despite the fact that the Grey
Eagle opening-against a green
team with scarcely any practice
cannot be construed as too indica-
tive, Rasmussen let out these
quotes this week: Were not afraid
of Benson, In fact I'm confident"
BY that he didn't mean that his
club couldn't or wouldn't be beat,
but that these boys apparently will
turn in for him at every stage of
the game. Benson comes here in
this second game almost an un-
known quantity, but their first
game indications are nearly as
strong potentially as the showing
Sauk Centre made.
BY the time they're over the
hump with Benson, it's Apple
ton the second West Central
Conference opponent staring
them In the face. Appleton
plays here next Tuesday eve
ming at 8:15 with q prelimin-
ary game preceding at 700.
Rasmussen wasn't building too
many castles on the strength of this
Grey Eagle team, but he did point
out that a club that can run up
48 points in an opening game is at
least finding the hoop once in a
while. The club ran up 21 field
goals in the game.

Main Street Loop
Hot SWAY Race

Coming up on the ninth week OF
the current bowling wars, the hot
test race in camp is developing in
the Main Street League, the Mon
day edition, where Saeger's Clean
|ers wound up with a single game
margin over Merchants National
Bank and Pepsi-Cola crowded the
two of them to the rail.
While Saeger's made clean
sweep of three games over
Red Owl and clambOred into
the lead, snatching it from the
Merchants, Pepsi-Cola had tied
the bankers in second spot
and had set up new high single
game and series scores for the
league.
Pepsi-Cola's 2645 and 900 were
the new highs of the week for the
Merchants League. Aiding and
abetting this new high score were
Bernie Robischon with $40, Frank
.O'Gara with 565, Paul Besser with
511 and Pat Dubois with 555.
In the meantime Jim Benson
on Irv's Central League team
took over for the score of the
week with a slightly dazzling
612 arising out of 22S, 1913
and 1876 series of three games
that incidentally had something
to do with Irv's clouting Jer-
ry's for three straight.
In the new Merchants League
its third week Of play-Grain Belt
Beer and North American were
knotted with seven victories in nine
starts in first place. The Coffee
Shop and the Tavern were click
ing together in second place with
four wins out of nine starts. There
was nothing startling here but
Garld Smith did exc out 567 for
the highest in the league.
In the Ladies' League there
was little change in standings,
but Gladys Kjos whacked out
the score Of the week with a
489 involving a series Of LAG,
13O and a 213.

Sauk Centre opened it's basket
ball season with one of the most
colorful exhibitions in years. .
Bands, flags, cheer leaders and a
fandom that was yelling for more,
a squad of 13 men every one of
them basket hungry. . . I don't
like to say much about team with
only one start to go by. I'd rather
see this outfit against Benson be-
fore I give you much of what
think about it. :.
But I'll say this much about
this team that Rasmussen
trundled out in his first real
coaching assignment. It's
got fire power, they can and
do shoot and make them Incl
dentally. The team has
more potential balance and
potential power than any Sauk
Centre club outside of the two
time district winners in 1883.
They trotted out a school band
of 25 or 80 pieces the other night
that made its initial performance
and it was good. It's the kind
of thing that adds color to an al
ready colorful sport. 1t points up
the zip that the crowd needs to
bring out the best in both the
crowd and the team. They did
a fine job and will add much to
the local season.
For impressiveness the rails
ing of the flag to preside over
this initial encounter was tops.
.. The flag is very much
with us and near us these days.
1t should always be so.
Two Boy Scouts of troop 25, I'M
der Don Clough, raised a huge,
red, white and blue flag against
the east wall of the gym while
Warren Jeffries sounded to the
colOrs, and a crowd, stilted in
silence, raised from its seats.
... 1 was about to suggest the
band then break into the Star
Spangled Banner when I learn
ed that they will just as soon
as the music has arrived.
This too Is to be a special fea-
ture of every home game. >.
One other new thing on the tick
ct this year. >. The school has in
stalled the new type blackboard.
-. It looks darned small up there,
and it's the new trend. The
board has been trimmed down to
allow for a greater shooting area
In the new gyms the basket pro-
trudes out over the floor to elm
mate player going out of bounds
every time he's under the basket.
. . Under the old system that
erased from the shooting area such
points on the floor as the far cor
ners. But the new buckets,
trimmed and streamlined as the
game itself, open up these areas.
We had little talk with
Rasmussen after the game. -.
He likes the way the boys were
shooting; he likes their alert
ness. He knows there are things
to be done in every department.
-. think he rather hit the
ball on the head with his game
philosophy. He tries to have
his boys play a moving game.
He told me that he believes the
crowd-the paying public-has
a right to be in on the interest
of the game. They want a game
that has action and keeps the
ball moving, he said. They
have a right to demand certain
things of a team, he pointed
out, for they're the ones who
have to watch it."
The Sauk Centre herald., 1941-12-04

day night In TWO games. Inc
second team gang cut their teeth
by winning over Grey Eagle 1S tc
IL in which Garld Smith used 1:
players. All of these fellows
were freshmen and sophomores
some Of whom look pretty good and
are on tap at any time for use
with the first squad. Garld
(Smitty) Smith is doing an admir-
able job with these younger play
ers. They know their fundamentals
and he's got lots of them to worl,
with, so many he's had to make
rules. For instance in practice
this rule Is working out admirably
|. While he's talking, it says, nc
one else may talk at all. If they
do, they hit the shower.
Rasmussen used all thirteen
of his men. Shades of Jup-
tier, these fellows aren't super
stitutious at all it seems. =.
Harry Rosedahl, Dick O'Gara,
Bob Rattle, Bob Hansmann,
John Cotton, Don Mooney, EE
mer Proell, George Rowland,
Bob Little, Arthur Wiener, Ed
Kurrell, Paul Keldah, Eugene
Nugent, all got action. :.
There's one freshman on the
squad; one sophomore: three
juniors, and nine seniors with
Ken SamuelsOn who was sick
the night they played last week.
The whole thing has conspired
to bring about real balance in the
club. Five men were changed
about as readily as you change
your tie without noticeable impair
ment in the efficiency. Ras-
mussen is. anxious to get away
from the idea of any first five
or first ten" even. There are
fourteen men on the major squad
and all of them are potentially
able to handle an assignment.
To get into the scoring brack-
ct Cotton and Rosedahl lead the
pack tied with 10 points each.
-. Bob Rattle was second with
8 points. Hansmann and
Nugent each got 6, with Moon
ey, Keldahl 2, Proel 4. -.
Nugent is the freshman on the
squad and he shows real alertness
for a youngster. I. And the whole
freshman class is pushing him as
their representative. AS Yves Fink
says, "Us freshmen are good, isn't
he?" There's plenty of fire
on the squad. Rosedahl, acting
captain, is the coolest thing on this
side of an Eskimo's igloo.
While Cotton is as tall as almost
two Rosedahls stretched end to end
his poise too is a big factor.
Cotton at times seems almost toe
cool, but he has great potentialities
as a player.
The one outstanding thing
apparent about this club is that
it doesn't have to depend on
any one man or even two to
get its scoring. They are
a lot of them that can score.
PrOell and Hansmann have
real drive, and forwards like
Mooney, Little, Rattle and Kel-
dahl have scoring power. :.
In fairness to Grey Eagle II
ought to be pointed out they have
had little opportunity to practice
. A new gym is under construc.
ton and only outdoor rehearsals
have been possible. So they're
a game bunch of lads. :.
1 think one thing ought to be
pointed out. This Sauk Gen.
tre club does have potential
team and individual power and
ability. Probably more than
any recent club with the ex-
ception of the district winning
team a few years back. ..
Which does not mean they can
sit back and bask In that halo.
But means definitely they
have a greater responsibility to
the school and to the fans than
