Supervisor Olaf Funnemark and family fished on Spirit Lake from a cottage pier when My runne mark hooked and landed a twelve pound pickerel after a half hour fight with a gaff hook. The catch, largest from the lake, was shown in Titonka and sparks competition with Petersen who claims the angling belt in Kossuth County. B. H. Pannhuk and Warner Smidt visited Bancroft relatives before returning home.
