Wildcats to Tackle
.Whitefish Eleven

Traditional rivals, the Columbia
Falls High school Wildcats and the
Whitefish Bulldogs will meet on the
gridiron Saturday at 2 p. m. in
Whitefish.
Both teams have made mediocre
showings so far this fall, though
Columbia Falls was an improved
eleven when it defeated Eureka 80
to 0 last Friday Whitefish had pre-
viously beaten Eureka 20 to 0.
Another comparison of the two
teams standing is the Libby-White-
fish game which saw the neighboring
city subdued SO to 0, while the local
eleven lost to Libby al to O.
Local fans hope that Coach Leon
ard Pease's team will win over
Whitefish by two touchdowns. Two
other approaching games for the
Wildcats are with Browning here
next Wednesday at 2 p. M, and
with the Flathead Reserves here a
week from Saturday.

1000 Stalk Deer,
Elk, Black And
Grizzly Bears

Hunting season opened Tuesday in
one of Americas choice big game
areas, the Forks of the F1athead
river.
An estimated 1000 hunters were
in the area Tuesday and Wednesday.
At the checking station up the South
Fork at Hungry Horse creek, $50
hunters had passed through by p.-
m, Tuesday. Manning the station
was deputy game warden, Bert Coan,
and R. H. Vose of the forest service.
This South Fork primitive area
open to the hunting of deer, elk,
black and grizzly bears extends for
more than 100 miles north and SOUTH
and is approximately 80 miles wide.
Tuesday was a beautiful day in the
South Fork for hunters. It was
clear, cold, fall day with blue sky
and the only sign of habitation, the
camps of the hunters along the
rocky creeks or the crystal clear
South Fork itself. The continental
divide was white capped, and the
golden needles of the turning lar
ches mixed into the green of the
spruce and pine. Some OF the camps
had been established since last Thur
sday awaiting Tuesdays first chance
at the big game.
Believed to be the first elk shot
up the South Fork was a cow by
Harmon Slama, Kalispell. Bradford
Leighty, Columbia Falls, was second
with a young bull. However is was
not considered lucky day by most
hunters, who came from many Mon
tana counties, and from a number
of states.
Last year 1900 hunters checked
in during the season into the South
Fork area. Earlier this month there
was a special, short open season
on elk at the headwaters of the
South Fork, go miles from the
closest highway; 49 were obtained
Hunters Tuesday and Wednesday,
were after elk, deer and bear up the
Middle Fork, that mountainous area
that borders Glacier National Park
On the south. Here some districts
may be hunted as late as December
i 81, but for the most part legal big
game hunting will stop on the Forks
of the Flathead by November Is.
Another great hunting country IS
the North Fork of the Flathead, to
the west of Glacier National Park
The North Fork is open this year
only to the hunting of deer and
bear, but not elk. Mountain goats
and moose may not be shot in the
Flathead areas this YEAR, though
hunters travel 81 miles north of Col
umbia Falls up the North Fork into
Canada, and pay a $40 nonresident
license, and often obtain goats and
moose.
Montana hunting licences for a
resident is So, for nonresident $50.

Harrison combined unerring put

of the rough after a few wild

He had seven-putt green's. sink
ing shots from two to fifty feet.
Two eagle threes Eel bagged on

duke P0WERHOUSE
HAS BRIEF DRILL
Head Coach Wallace Wade
Has IS Gridders On
Hand For Sessions

DURHAM, N. c., Aug. 10. -(P)-
Fall football drills got underway
at Duke University Monday with
some rs gridiron hopefuls report
ing to Head Coach Wallace Wade.
The boys ran through two brief
drills in shot, little being done ex-
cept to iron out the kinks"
AS Coach Wade resumed his
coaching career after four years in
the Army, he had only three men
on hand he has ever coached be-
fore. They are Bob CAN'T, 1912
player who has been shifted to
quarterback, Leon Long, a sub full
back in 1912, and Clyde Redding, a
1912 tackle.
Most of those reporting were ex-
servicemen, many of whom have
been away from football for several
years, and the Duke mentor said
that the success of the season would
depend on how they round into con-
dition.
As a whole, the squad appeared
to be in good physical shape, and
took to the light work Monday with
vim and vigor.
In a brief talk to the squad Wade
said, 1--WE are facing hardest
schedule in years and we must
work hard if we are to have a sue
cessful team. l am sure you are
ready to give what it takes to de-
velope into good football players.
Some of the outstanding players
of past Duke teams who reported
Monday were George Clark. Buddy
Luper, Howard Hartly, Long, and
CAN'T backs; Kelly Mote and Ed
Austin, ends; Harrison, guard; Al
Derogatis, tackle, who was a cen
ter last year but who has been
shifted to tackle. There were also
linemen Bill Miner, Ernie Knots
and Garland Wolfe at tackles;
Charlie Davis, E. P. Bethune, and
Fletcher Wall, centers.

|ALL-STARS ANNOUNCE
EX-COLLEGE SQUAD
FOR RAM ENCOUNTER

EVANSTON, ILL.,. Aug. 19-lR-
Coach Bo McMillin will send his
own private All" club to shear
the sturdy Los Angeles Rams in
the 18th Annual All-Star football
game before an expected 95, 900 al
Soldier Field Friday night.
McMillin, who has 6 able-bodied
ex-collegians to throw against the
National Football League cham
pions. expects the quartet of Bob
Hoernschemeyer, Billy Hillen-
brand, Elroy (Crazy-Legs) Hirsch
and Harlin (Pat) Harder to con-
centrate on the Fleeing of the
Rams.
Harder's line-blasting at fullback.
the fancy footwork of Hillenbrand
and Hirsch at halfback. and Hoer-
cshemeyer's passing at quarter
back loom as the chief offensive
threat of the collegians in their
quest for a fourth AI-Star triumph.
Neither McMillin nor Coach Adam
Walsh of the Rams is forgetting,
however, that the All-Star roster
ALSO includes such stellar backs as
and Monk NH "a "a "
Al Dekdebrun, ex-Cornell signal
caller, Notre Danes Elmer Angs-
man, Jim Reynolds of Oklahoma
A and M, and Monk Gafford of Au-
burn.
AS the Rams left their Compton,,
Calf, training base Monday,
Walsh said worriedly: 1.-THE ALI
Stars have speed, passing and
crushing power. We must stop them
with no more than two touchdowns,
else we can be whipped"
McMillin is mum on his starting
lineup, but it probably will have
a backfield combination includ-
ing Hoernschemeyer at quarter,
Hillenbrand or Hirsch at left half,
Angsman at right half and Harder
at fullback.
At least N lineman is a cincA
to start - 250-pound Martin Ruby,
Texas Aggie tackle, who was elect
ed All-Star captain. Ruby typifies
the makeup of the collegiate crew
many of whom left their campuses
long ago for military service. A
veteran of Pacific theater action,
Ruby emerged with a Captains
rank after four years in the Army
Air forces.
Hillenbrand. who has scored
sever touchdoWns in three intra-
squad battles staged by McMillin,
promises to be the all-star counter
part of the Rams king-pin, Bob
Waterfield, who was voted the Ma
tional Football Leagues most valu-
able player last season When the
Rams did their playing in Cleve-
land.
A 4O-player Ram contingent was
scheduled to arrive here Wednes-
