L. A. Harmon has handed us a copy of the Mitchell, (S. D.) Press I which contains an account of a 1 football game between Mitchell and Sioux Falls for the high school | championship of South Dakota,: which was won by the former, 14 j to 0. It will be of interest to Rensselaer people to know that Doyle Harmon, son of Russell Harmon and' a former Rensselaer boy, was the quarterback on the winning - eleven. Young Harmon lived in this city with his parents until a few' yean ago and is a nephew of L. A. Harmop. of this city. In speaking of the game the Press says: ► “Harmon, the Mitchell was the star ground gainer for his team, his long end runs being a feature of the contest. He had exceptional speed and an unusual knack of finding openings. At one time Harmon peeled off a sixtyeight yard run, carrying the ball from his own ten-yard line and making the second Mitchell touchdown possible.” .
