The “backs” need credit. Corbettht quarter played a heady, safe

“Lally” werenever downed unless three or fourmen were on them.
Running inter-ference, breaking up passes and tack-ling stamped

line. Sofar this season Hosken has chalkedup 28 touchdowns, one
drop kick andnumerous tries for point.
All in all Redwood outsmarted, out-played and outfought the St.
Peterlads. The St. Peter boys are a finebunch, of boys and they had
a goodteam.
Though the day was fine andthough the Redwood team has
playedwonderful football the support Satur-day was poor—very poor.
Expenseswere $75.00 and receipts were $56.00.The team deserved
better supportthan that. A resume of the seasonwill appear next

F. W. Somerfeldt FoundWorking Near Windom
(Continued from first page)is stunned by the revelations in
thebank, Sommerfeld’s long record as ahighly regarded citizen and
friendlycounsellor, as treasurer of the villageand of the school
board, hasn’t beenforgotten by the townspeople. Manyof them are
inclined to accept as suf-ficient his explanation that he tooksome
of the funds intrusted to himyears ago “to avoid criticism for
hadjudgment’’ in making loans. Hemight never have been in jail,
in-vestigators said, had he not continu-ally worked for better
schools in thevillage which trusted him.
The measure of Sommerfeld’s es-teem in Echo is reflected in the
factthat last night some of the citizenswho knew him for years were
circu-lating a petition asking clemency forhim.
Meanwhile, Sommerfeld is in thejail at Granite Falls, refusing
to talkbeyond his first conference with C.D. Griffith, 4400 Dupont
avenue S.,Minneapolis, president of the bank.No one from Echo has
been to seehim, although 300 citizens of the placehave signed the
petition in his behalf.The list of signers includes depositorsand
stockholders of the bank.
“He loaned money on bad notes, tofriends at first,” George H.
Sivwright,deputy state bank superintendent,said last night. “Then,
to avoidcriticism of his bad judgment, he tookmoney from the school
fund to makeup the bad notes, and put in bad notesin place of them.
That started him.”
Examiners reported a long seriesof irregularities occurring all
throughthe years when Somme rfeld was themost respected citizen of
the village.Misuse oi school and village fundswas the first step,
they said; thenfollowed forging of mortgages, withnames of
Sommerfeld’s best friends,to cover the shortages.
At the last, examiners said theywould testify, when
Sommerfeld’swork for a new school bore fruit andthe village negab
to draw on its schoolfunds three years ago, Sommerfeldtook funds of
the bank to cover hisspeculations from the school fund.A bank
examiner finally discoveredthe $34,000 shortage a month ago.
The Sommerfeld home, in Echo, ishis no longer. He has turned it
overto the bank, together with 31 sharesof the bank’s stock which
he owned.His sons, Hugo and Walter Sommer-ffeld, still are working
in the bank;his wife and his three other childrenstill live in the
Sommerfeld home,but none of his property is in theirnames any
longer.
“He’s just a poor, broken old man,”said Sheriff Ole Peterson of
Windom,who, with Sheriff M. F. Fritzner ofGranite Falls, arrested
Mr. Somnier-feld. “And when we found him shiv-ering, up on the
wagon he was driv-ing, he said, ‘l’m glad you cime.I’m sick of
being down and out.’ ”
Four weeks of investigation, startedby state bank examiners, and
carriedon by an auditor employed by Mr.Griffith, shows a tangle of
accountsextending over 15 years, Mr. Griffithsaid.
Fifteen years ago, the first moneywas taken,” Mr. Griffith said.
“Morewas taken. That was from funds ofthe school board and the
village, keptin our bank.
“No money was taken from thebank, then, so far as'we can
learn.But three years ago the school boardbegan to di-aw heavily on
its funds.”
Mr. §ommerfeld, as treasurer ofthe school board, was a leader in
workfor Echo’s new school. That workled to his ruin. A month ago
the bankexaminer found shortages, which heattributed to the
withdrawal of mon-ey to cover the amount previouslytaken from the
school and villagefunds. The total, Mr. Griffith said,may run well
in exness of $34,000.
“We always thought he was tight-er than a drum,” Mr. Griffith
said.“And he got $2,250 a year—whichis mighty good pay for a
countrybanker.”
“I’ve known him for 25 years,” J.H. Homme, miller at Echo, said
lastnight. “Folks used to go to him andask him to help them with
legal pa-pers. He was always glad to help.So now we’ve got out a
petition. Isigned it, and so did a lot of the bankstockholders.
He’s an old man —andwe pity him.”
“We found him driving this team,out with the road gang; he was
halfsick, cold and ragged,” Sheriff Peter-son said. “He got the job
a few daysbefore. Just told the foreman, ‘Giveme anything you think
is right. I’vegot to have a job.”
Visit School Is Programfor This Week
(Continued from first page)going to observe and what
informa-tion are you going to seek from theprincipal and teachers ?
Accordingto school superintendents who havewritten to the United
States Bureauof Education on these points, parentsshould observe:
The general attitudeof the children toward the school; thegeneral
physical condition and sanit-ation of the school buildings; the
am-
. - •«: v/a.
ount and use of play space; the s&eof classes, equipment of
the schools,as library, gymnasium,, shops, maps,etc.; and the
exhibit of the children’swork.
“Parents should seek informationon the standing of their own
childrenin their school work; whether theirchildren are working up
to their fullcapacity; what the parent can do tohelp It's children
do better work; whatbad school habits have been noted;what are the
qualifications demandedof the teaching force; what salariesare paid
to teachers; how school costscompare with costs in like
communi-ties; what proportion of the pupils ofhigh school age are
in high school;what provision is made for childi’enof kindergarten
age; why pupils leaveschool; and what the parents may doto help the
schools.”
Redwood Boys TakePrizes in Junior Show
(Continued from first page)Scanlon boys.
“Taking prizes seems to run in theScanlon family of Redwood
county.Joe Scanlon won first prize in itsclass at the Junior Live
Stock Show,with a Poland China hog which weigh-ed 440 pounds.
William, his elderbrother, had no intention of lettingthe younger
lad get ahead of him how-ever, and proceeded to get first prizein
its class on the purebred junioryearling which he showed.
“A peculiar feature of William’sfirst prize was that the animal
whichtook first in the state show took onlysecond in the county
show early inSeptember. It was explained, how-ever, that another
boy showed theanimal at the county fair, and not be-ing acquainted
with it, did not showit off to the best advantage. Alsothe animal
had gained a great dealduring this feeding period. It nowweighs
1,540 pounds.
“Prizes at the Live Stock show areawarded, too, on records, and
WilliamScanlon’s record was exceedinglyhigh.
“A cousin, Virginia Scanlon, wonthe baby beef grand champion
threeyears ago. Joe has shown at the LiveStock show for four years
and thisis his first prize. William, who istaking a pre-legal
course at the Uni-versity of Minnesota, will be barredby age from
entering the competitionagain next year.
Annual Meeting of Stock-holders Held Thursday
(Continued from first page)division was made in the Needle
andFancy Work department, totaling550. The second highest, 455,
weremade in the Pantry and Kitchen de-partment. There were 292
swine en-tered, 102 sheep and 160 cattle. Thetotal amount paid for
premiums was$3,814.20 which is SSOO more thanwas paid for premiums
in 1923. Thepay roll for help required for theconduct of the fair
was $894.25.
Even a casual study of the secre-tary’s report shows the
muliplicity ofdetail which makes up the work ofthe Board of
Directors. These menserve faithfully, not only during theperiod of
the fair but attending manymeetings throughout the year andgiving
much time and study to pre-fair problems. Theirs is a work
withpractically no compensation, certainlynot enough to pay for
their expensesin attending meetings to say nothingof the time and
labor expended bythem. Were it not that these menare
public-spirited enough to makethis sacrifice of their own
interestsfor a civic purpose, it would be im-possible for Redwood
County to havea fair which is accredited throughoutthe state, and
indeed throughout thenorthwest, as being one of the bestin this
section. The stockholders andthe general public is deeply in
thedebt of this group of men.Grand Stand Contracts $1,925.00Repairs
