>> IT WASN'T EASY TO SLOWDY TURN THE TIDE IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION.

IT DOESN'T MEAN WE WILL ALWAYS AGREE, BUT IT DOES MEAN WE WILL SEE EACH OTHER, JUST LIKE WE SEE THESE FLAGS HERE NOW.

>> I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT THAT I WOULD WITNESS THIS DAY IN MY LIFETIME.

THIS CEREMONY IS A RECOGNITION OF TRUTH, A SIGN OF RESPECT, A VISIBLE COMMITMENT TO GOVERNMENT, TO GOVERNMENT RELATIONSHIPS THAT ARE BUILT ON TRUST, SOVEREIGNTY, AND SHARED PURPOSE.

>> Reporter: NOT LOST ON THE SPEAKERS WAS THE TUMULTUOUS HISTORY BETWEEN THE STATE AND TRIBES, WITH GOVERNOR WALZ TALKING ABOUT THE NEED TO RESPECT THE RELATIONSHIP AND THE TRIBE'S HISTORY.

>> MINNESOTA IS A GREAT STATE, WE ADDED MUCH.

GREAT STATES RADIO -- ARE AIN'T TO TALK ABOUT THE SORROW, THE PAIN, AND MISTAKES THEY MADE.

MANY STANDING HERE UNDERSTAND THAT.

WHILE WE CAN'T CHANGE THE PAST, WE WHO ARE LIVING IN THE PRESENT AND ARE IN POSITIONS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, CAN CERTAINLY CHANGE THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE.

THAT'S WHAT TODAY IS ABOUT.

>> Reporter: LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR FLANAGAN, THE NATION'S HIGHEST RANKING NATIVE WOMAN EMPHASIZES IT'S NOT JUST THE PAST, BUT IT'S THE FUTURE AS WELL.

>> THE STORIES OF INDIGENOUS NATIONS ARE OVERLOOKED AND REPLACED BUT WITH THESE FLAGS RAISED HIGH, WE AFFIRM THAT THESE SOVEREIGN NATIONS ARE NOT IN THE PAST.

ANOTHER CHILLY NIGHT TOMORROW NIGHT, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE TEMPERATURES SHOULD START TO IMPROVE EARLY NEXT WEEK.

IN BEMIDJI, IT'S 51 DEGREES.

AT THE STUDIO, WINDS ARE FROM THE WEST AT 5 MILES PER HOUR, AND WE PICKED UP 0.04-INCH OF PRECIPITATION SINCE LAST NIGHT.

A FROST ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FOR NORTHERN MINNESOTA, BEGINNING AT 1:00 A.M. SATURDAY AND CONTINUING UNTIL 10:00 A.M. SATURDAY.

WE ARE EXPECTING TO SEE THOSE TEMPERATURES DROPPING INTO THE LOW 30s, RIGHT AROUND 32 AND THAT WILL RESULT IN SOME FROST FORMATION.

AS FAR AS RADAR AND SATELLITE, THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW PATCHY SHOWERS OUT THERE.

A LOT OF CLOUD COVER TODAY, BUT WE ARE STARTING TO SEE THE CLEARING OUT TO THE WEST.

WE WILL HAVE VARIABLE CLOUDS THROUGHOUT THE AREA OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AND PATCHY FROST IN NORTHERN MINNESOTA.

BEMIDJI REACHING A HIGH OF 53, SO 20 DEGREES BELOW THAT AVERAGE, THE LOW WAS 40, AND SUNRISE AT 6:45.

LOOKING AT TOMORROW'S FORECAST, WE WILL SEE THE MIX OF CLOUDS AND SUNSHINE IN THE MORNING AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE CLOUDS AND SUNSHINE THROUGHOUT THE DAY, WITH SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW.

TEMPERATURE-WISE, STILL A BIT CHILLY, WITH HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 50s IN THE NORTHERN HALF OF OUR VIEWING AREA, WITH UPPER 50s, CLOSE TO 60 DEGREES IN CENTRAL MINNESOTA.

CHARLIE IS HERE NOW.

A BUSY FRIDAY NIGHT WITH LOCAL FOOTBALL ACTION.

BEMIDJI AND GRAND RAPIDS IN FOOTBALL.

>> Charlie: AND BRAINERD, DULUTH EAST.

THEY WERE PLAYING HERE AT CAN CHET AND IT WAS AN EXCITING GAME EARLY.

WE HAVE THE HIGHLIGHTS FROM THAT AND MORE COMING UP AFTER THE BREAK.

>> AND NOW YOUR LOCAL SPORTS WITH CHARLIE YAEGER.

[♪♪♪] >> Charlie: IF YOU THINK YOU ARE SEEING DOUBLE, WELL THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT.

BEMIDJI AND GRAND RAPIDS FOOTBALL ARE BOTH RUNNING THE SAME OFFENSE, THE TRIPLE OPTION.

THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IT EFFECTIVELY, SCORING 40-PLUS POINTS IN THEIR FIRST TWO GAMES, EACH OF THEM.

TONIGHT, GRAND RAPIDS AND BEMIDJI, COULD THEY GIVE US THE SAME RESULTS AS THEY DID IN THEIR FIRST GAME THIS SEASON?

WELL, THE JACK'S FIRST PLAY FROM SCRIMMAGE, TAKING IT 30 YARDS TO THE END ZONE.

IT'S 7-0.

SECOND QUARTER, RAPIDS ON THE DOORSTEP, LOGAN TRYING TO FIND JACKSON, BUT UNABLE TO CONNECT, THEY TURN IT OVER ON DOWNS.

LUMBERJACKS WORKING ON THEIR AIR ASSAULT, AND WIDE OPEN FOR THE 50-PLUS YARD STRIKE, AND BEMIDJI GOES UP 14-0.

RAPIDS TRYING TO STAY IN IT BUT THE JACKS FORCE A FUMBLE AND THUNDER HAWKS TERRITORY, FARMER WITH THE RECOVERY AND A FEW PLAYS LATER, TREVOR UP THE MIDDLE FOR 6.

IN THE THIRD QUARTER, T-HAWKS ARE ABLE TO GET SOME PRESSURE, AND HE IS FORCED TO THROW IT UP FOR GRABS, AND GRAND RAPIDS FORCED FIVE OF THEM BUT IT WOULDN'T BE ENOUGH.

THEY FELL 24-7 TO BEMIDJI.

OWEN HAD TO BE CARTED OFF AFTER THE PLAY WHEN HE GOT HIT.

THE COACH SAID AFTER THE GAME, IT WAS AN OVERABUNDANCE OF CAUTION DUE TO SOME NECK PAIN HE HAD BUT HE DID HAVE FEELING IN HIS HANDS AND FEET.

WE'RE WISHING HIM A SPEEDY RECOVERY.

>>> AFTER PULLING OUT A GUTSY ONE POINT COME FROM BEHIND VICTORY AT HOME AGAINST BUFFALO IN WEEK ONE.

BRAINERD HIT THE ROAD THIS WEEK TO TAKE ON ANOTHER TEAM WHO HAD A COME FROM BEHIND VICTORY WEEK ONE, DULUTH EAST.

THE TWO TEAMS HAVE NOT PLAYED SINCE 1997 AND ARE SIMILAR IN THAT THEY ARE BOTH 1-0 AND HAVE SOPHOMORES STARTING AT QUARTERBACK BUT THE SIMILARITIES END THERE.

THE WARRIORS RUNNING MORE OF A SPREAD STYLE OFFENSE.

THE GREYHOUNDS UTILIZING THE TRIPLE OPTION.

PLAY NERD -- BRAINERD UTILIZES THE WILDCAT.

BARNUM PUT THEM ON THE BOARD.

HISTORY WILL REPEAT ITSELF A LITTLE LATER.

BARNUM GOING FOR THE KILL ONCE AGAIN, WARRIORS GO UP 13-0.

THEN A FORCED FUMBLE BRINGS THEM INTO GREYHOUND TERRITORY AND IT'S BARNUM AGAIN, ADDS ANOTHER 6.

BRAINERD DID NOT LET OFF THE GAS, THEY GO ON TO WIN 38-0 OVER DULUTH EAST.

THEY ARE 2-0 TO START THE SEASON.

>>> A COUPLE MORE SCORES FOR YOU IN CLASS 4A, LIMIT FALLS BEAT MY LACKS, PIERZ GETS THE WIN OVER FOLEY.

AND AITKIN AND PILLAGER COLLECTING BIG WINS TONIGHT.

ALSO IN 2-A, STAPLES MOTLEY, THEY ARE DOING BIG THINGS AGAIN, BEATING ROSEAU.

ROYALTON FALLS, AND WADENA DEER CREEK FALLS.

CROSBY-IRONTON GETS THE WIN OVER EAST-CENTRAL.

>>> WELL, PINE RIVER-BACKUS TOOK THE TRIP UP TO NEVIS FOR THE BATTLE OF THE TIGERS.

NEVIS STARTED OFF HOT, AND THE FIRST POINTS OF THE GAME, IT'S 6-0.

BRODY FOR PRB WOULD ANSWER BACK.

HE BULLDOZES HIS WAY FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

THEY WOULD MAKE IT 8-6.

FOLLOWING DRIVE, NEVIS TRIES TO TAKE THE LEAD AGAIN, BUT COLE SNATCHES THAT ONE FROM THE AIR TO GIVE PINE RIVER THE BALL BACK.

THEN AFTER THE PICK, PRB'S SHAWN REYES TAKES THIS ONE, NO, BRODY FAKES OUT THE CAMERAMAN, BREAKS A FEW TACKLES, CROSSES THE GOAL LINE, IT'S 16-6.

NEVIS WAS HAVING A HARD TIME STOPPING THE RUN THIS GAME AND THEY RUN AWAY WITH THIS ONE, A FINAL SCORE -- EXCUSE ME, PINE RIVER-BACKUS RUNS AWAY WITH THIS ONE, FINAL SCORE 52-20 THERE.

>>> SOME MORE SCORES FOR YOU IN CLASS A, DEER RIVER GETS THE WIN TONIGHT.

WALKER-HACKENSACK-AKELEY ALSO GETTING A TOUGH WIN AGAINST PARK CHRISTIAN.

LONG PRAIRIE GREY EAGLE, NOT SURE WHAT THE FINAL SCORE IS THERE.

CROMWELL WRIGHT BEATS SEBEKA.

VERNDALE, A BIG WIN TONIGHT.

BELTRAMI LOST TWO GAMES ALREADY THIS YEAR.

I KNOW WHO LIKES THAT, FOSSTON LIKES THAT BECAUSE THEY ARE 2-0 TO START THE SEASON.

BERTHA HEWITT GETS THE WIN AS WELL.

NORTHWOODS BEATS BIG FORK BY 30.

ALSO STARTING OFF THE SEASON, BSU WOMEN'S COLLEGE VOLLEYBALL, BUT THEY WOULD DROP BOTH OF THEIR FIRST MATCHES, 3-2 IN THE FIRST ONE, 3-1 IN THE SECOND ONE.

IN SOCCER, BEMIDJI STATE, THEY STARTED OFF THEIR SEASON AS WELL, BUT UNABLE TO PUT ANYTHING IN THE NET.

THEY FALL, 2-0.

>> Dennis: ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU VERY MUCH CHARLIE.

LOCAL ARTIST MARLEY KAUL PASSED AWAY IN 2021 BUT HIS LEGACY LIVES ON THROUGH HIS WORK.

FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS HIS FAMILY HAS BEEN COLLECTING HIS PAINTINGS AND PUTTING TOGETHER A GALLERY EXHIBIT TO SHARE HIS STORY.

OUR REPORTER SYDNEY DICK STOPPED BY THE NEWLY-OPENED EXHIBIT AT BEMIDJI STATE UNIVERSITY'S TALLEY GALLERY FOR THIS WEEK'S IN FOCUS.

>> Reporter: BEMIDJI STATE'S TALLEY-GALLERY IS FULL FOLLOWING ONE PAINTER FROM THE 1960s TO THE 2020s.

IT'S A RETROSPECTIVE LOOK AT ALL OF HIS WORKS.

>> HE WAS EXPERIMENTAL SO HE KEPT PUSHING BOUNDARIES AND TRYING NEW THINGS.

>> Reporter: AND THAT WAS EVIDENT IN THE 50-UNIQUE PIECES OF MARLEY'S ARTWORK ON DISPLAY AT THE GALLERY, WHICH IS MORE THAN JUST A GALLERY TO THE FAMILY.

>> HE TAUGHT AT BSU PAINTING AND DRAWING.

HIS PARTNER SANDY WAS THE ORIGINAL DIRECTOR AT THE TALLEY GALLERY.

>> COMING TO AN ART SCHOOL, SEEING THE STUDIO, SEEING THE PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE, AND SAYING THIS IS WHERE I AM SUPPOSED TO BE.

THAT WAS THE BIGGEST INFLUENCE.

IT ALLOWED ME TO REALIZE ACTUALLY I CAN DO THIS.

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE.

>> Reporter: MARLEY INSPIRED ART STUDENTS FOR MORE THAN THREE DECADES AND CREATED OVER 500 FINISHED WORKS OF HIS OWN, MOSTLY ACRYLIC ON CANVAS OR EGG TEMPURA.

HE PASSED AWAY IN 2021, BUT THE GALLERY SHOWCASES 60 YEARS WORTH OF WORK.

>> HE AND I WAS LOOKING AT THE WORLD AND INTERPRETING THAT.

I THINK HIS PAINTINGS IS A REFLECTION OF LOOKING SLOWLY AND PATIENTLY.

>> SOMETIMES YOU SEE A FIGURE OF A HOUSE OR SOMETHING, BUT YOU'RE NOT SURE IF IT'S PARTLY A PERSON.

YOU KNOW, IT'S HARD TO KNOW.

ONLY THE ARTIST REALLY KNOWS WHAT THEIR INTENTION WAS.

THE ARTIST IS DIFFERENT IN PERSON.

YOU CAN SEE DETAILS AND TEXTURE AND YOU CAN GET CLOSE AND THEN STAND BACK A LITTLE MORE.

I REALLY ENJOY IT.

A PICTURE IS GREAT TOO, BUT NOTHING BEATS SEEING A PIECE OF ART IN PERSON.

>> Reporter: THE KAUL FAMILY IS PUTTING TOGETHER A BOOK THAT WILL BE ON SALE LATER IN SEPTEMBER.

REPORTING IN BEMIDJI WITH THIS WEEK'S IN FOCUS, I'M SYDNEY DICK, LAKELAND NEWS.

>> THE PIECES WILL BE DISPLAYED AT BSU UNTIL OCTOBER 30TH AND ARE ALSO UP FOR SALE.

AND IN TWO WEEKS, THE BOOK MARLEY KAUL'S PAINTINGS WILL ALSO BE ON SALE AFTER THE OFFICIAL BOOK RELEASE ON SEPTEMBER 18TH.

>>> LET'S GO BACK TO STACY FOR ANOTHER LOOK AT THE WEATHER.

>> Stacy: WE ARE IN FOR CHILLY NIGHT TONIGHT.

TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL INTO THE 30s, WE COULD SEE PATCHY FROST ACROSS NORTHERN MINNESOTA AND A FROST ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FROM 1:00 A.M. TO 10:00 A.M. ON SATURDAY.

FOR TONIGHT, WE WILL BE SEEING VARIABLE CLOUDS, LOWS NEAR 36, WITH WINDS OUT OF THE WEST TO NORTHWEST 5 TO 15, MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE TOMORROW.

>> Charlie: AND IF YOU ARE A BSU FAN LIKE ME, YOU WANT TO MEET THE ATHLETES, YOU HAVE A CHANCE ON MONDAY.

THEY HAVE BUC-EE'S KICK OFF FROM 4:00 TO 7:00, FREE-FOR-ALL TO ATTEND.

YOU CAN MEET ALL THE ATHLETES.

>> Dennis: VERY GOOD, HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND.

WE'RE BACK ON MONDAY NIGHT.

WE'LL SEE YOU THEN.

>> Charlie: GOOD NIGHT.
