This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. Page 5 has an article headed: "THE WIZARD'S WAND" "Schaefer's Marvelous Performance with the cue" "The Western Wonder Retains the Championship" and more. (see) Text takes up over a full column.
This issue is not fragile as newsprint back then was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Complete in 8 pages, very minor margin wear, nice condition.
