The exhibition was one-of the best brands of gridiron sport witnessed in this city for many years and the talk about it has not subsided at this writing. Willmar set down its reputation in prominent letters that day and sent the unde feated Alexandria outfit back ack nowledging the par quality of the lpcals and deeply regretting its in ability to score. The Alexandria team has a remark able record and has several victories to its credit in which they have never been scored against. She is unde feated and came to Willmar Sunday determined to keep its slate clean and to the utmost strive to overrun the locals. In the latter attempt they failed as they encountered an oppo sition worthy of their best efforts. In the first attempt she succeeded as her slate is still unmarked with any loss es. Yet when one compares the two teams and the experience and records accomplished it appears that Willmar had the shade the better of the ar gument. Alexandria has played four games against strong elevens and thereby derived some splendid prac tice while the Willmar boys have but played one game against Glenwood which she won with ease by a score of 34-0. Alexandria practices faith fully three times a week while the locals meet once a week. Alexandria is at least 10-15 pounds heavier to a man and showed it on the field Sun day. When they appeared on the field it looked sort of dubious for the home boys because the towering and bhlky Alexies made a fine impression. Yet the locals held them and critics agree that the game itself was a nip and tuck affair with the teams very closely matched. The locals are to be commended in that without any great degree of practice and with lighter men they were able to hold the visitors and split the card. The salient facts of the game can be stated in brief. The two 'teams see-sawed up and down the field or more exactly crossed and recrossed the kick-off line with neither team going beyond the 20 d. line. The mass of men oscillated up and down the space in the center of the field with both elevens making spurts but being barred effectively at all times. The otay instance where a score was a possibility was when right-half Arch ie Carlson galloped oft with the oval around left end but when he was in easy distance from the goal he stum bled and slipped on the wet sod. Out side of this one chance to annex a score no danger of gaining points ap peared evident. Altho the Alexandria Mne was heavier they failed to make their ground gains come in when needed the most. When on the twen ty-yard line they failed to get farther and lost the ball. Willmar tho light er had more snap and jumped to their work with alacrity and when they forged ahead they did it with snap altho the stout defense of Alexandria was something to contend against. Had the visitors line been less mas sive the Willmarites would have cut thru the defense, with Hartwick plun ged thru the gaps cleaved. As it was the Alexandria barrier was safe and the result was the two teams moving up and down the center of the field without either scoring. Alexandria employed a number of forward passes and completed half of them altho they brot very little advantage. The lo cals succeeded in one aerial stunt but failed in several others tried. The audience which saw the game was not as large on the Willmar side of the field as it might have been but a goodly sized crowd came out and returned with the conviction that they had attended one of the best ex hibitions of football in Willmar and the best in the last few years. Alex andria had several special cars jam med with rooters and boosters who kept up a constant cheering thruout the game. Doubtless the people of Alexandria are better boosters of their home eleven than our local folks. Yet they possess no better team but they have loyal backers. Al exandria returned undefeated but suffering the trials of a severe battle in which she barely escaped with her scalp while the Willmar boys felt elated in that in counting over the credentials and the qualifications of the teams Willmar showed up far better and it is expected that with a little more practice Willmar may return the game and the score will have a different face on it. The un defeated Willmar eleven may arrange another tussle with the undefeated Alexandria boys. The Willmar lineup: Odell, E. Conway T. Callahan G. Kvam, C. Goode, G. Norling, T. Nelson, E,. Peterson.

YOUNG MAN BADLY INJURED IN ACCIDENT "Bill" Forsberg Suffers Painful In juries When Caught By Bumpers To be partly caught and crushed by the bumpers on a switch engine and a box car was the painful exper ience of "Bill" Forsberg, well known switchman of this city. The accident happened in the local yards opposite the depot at about 2 p. m. on Tuesday. The bumpers clinched the bone and muscled tissue about four inches be low the right hip, fractured the bone and tore loose the muscles between the leg and the body proper. Nearby laboring men on the tracks witnessed the unfortunate mishap and rushed to his aid. The shock had deadened the sense of pain and Forsberg was gen tly borne to the Willmar Hospital, where an examination was made with out delay. He complained of no pains altho his wounds should have caused excruciating distress due doubtless to the extreme nature of the blow. He is now resting as comfortably as possible and awaiting the complete restoration in health of his leg and hip.

November Twenty-fifth is Thanksgiving Day. These important la stand as the introduction, and culmination of the Fourth Red Cross Roll Call. Both of these days are days of rejoicing upon the part of the American people and in our own countv almost every home on the memorable Eleventh will lift its hearts in thanksgiving for the pro tection over the life of at least one of its boys during the deadly struggle of recent years. And on the long es tablished Day of Thanksgiving the American people will fittingly ob serve and remember their indebted ness to God Almighty by appropriate conduct. During the days lying between the p.bove dates the hearts of the people of Kandiyohi County should burst with kindly feelings of assistance to the needy and afflicted and generous support of those persons or organiza tions which function in our midst in such a noble cause. The American people are known the world over for being a liberal and altruistic people and rightfully have they merited the praise. At home, in our very midst, the Red Cross is working. In Kan diyohi County we have our busy Red Cross, prepared to administer to the physical and spiritual wants of the needy in our county. Such work is a bit of heaven on earth. The Red Cross is a living and active entity. It is only to be regretted that its work is not made more public. The organ ization modestly allows those helped to speak for it end announce to the world its noble endeavors. In the state ot Minnesota very few persons can enumerate the wonderful work of the Red Cross and consequently will not understand the necessity of con tributing to its work along financial channels. To know what the Red I Cross is really doing will be to give liberally as its cause is impressive and appeals to the better nature of the giver.
