HURRIED FORGIVENESS é Council Bluffs, Ia. Aug. 28.— When Hester Goodrow and Ray Edie of New Underwood, Ia., eloped to Council Bluffs, the young woman’s father, the Rev. W. W. Goodrow, pursued them and caught them in time to forgive them and officiate From 1902 to 1912, some 18 inches the; were added to the mark, a new collegiate pole vault record/effort a little over a decade ago. DEAN BROWNELL Universit of ILLINOIS” 11 feet 6 inches being considered a top-notch Charles’ Dvorak of Michigan was one of the best in the country along about the beginning of the 20th century. He was good for around 11 feet 6 inches every time out. Then came Martin Dole, Stanford and others with leaps of 12 feet and 12 feet 6 inches, followed by Gard- ner Brownell. And there it has stopped. True, stars like Frank Foss and Mark Wright have bettered Brown- ell’s performance, but not as college athletes. Ralph Spearow, Universi- ty of Orcgon man, who went over with the 1924 Olympic team, has been credited with a leap of 13 feet 6 inches in practice, but. in actual competition has fallen far below that figure. In the recent Interna- tional games he failed miserably. Track and field records—most of them—are being smashed every sea- son, but the pole vault sees very few changes. one on Tilden’s serve. Tilden took four of the game, without the loss of a point, scoring 11 placements. ‘HOBO TOURIST’ IS NEW TYPE IN® D, FIELDS They Come to Harvest Fields in Automobiles Nowadays, Reporter Finds WOMEN NEED NOT APPLY No Jobs For Them in Harvest Fields—Old and Young 1} GOERS 70 | MILLERS tion Gets Try Out in Fast Time year old strikeout sensation Lynn Nelson, Caselton Sensa- Fargo, Aug, 28.—Lynn Nelson, 18 from Casselton will leave Sunday evening or Monday morning for Minneapolis where he will receive a pitching trial the Millers in the-American As- jociation. ton against Luke Moher’s Recreation nine from Fargo, TILDEN WINS Nelson will pftch his last game in North Dakota this season at Cassel- Grand EASY VICTORY OVER WIELIAM Forest Hills, N.

A new class of men are coming to help the farmer take care of his grain crop, the “hobo tourists,” who travel by automobile. A very large percentage of the men coming here for the har- vest and threshing season come in this way, cording to Herman Federal-State here. The influx this year exceeds that of any other year, there being about three times as many men as are needed. As the harvest is slow, many farmers are not requiring so much help as formerly, the farmer able to cut the grain, and then spend*a day or two in shocking it himself. More help is being required as the harvest advances. While the greatest number come from the states east and south of North Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and others, a large number are also coming from the estern coast states, business de- pression there being the cause. Men twho haye been employed by the Ford |company, but who have been laid off, are driving up here in their former semployers product to earn a little cash tntil things start up again.

Few apply for work, but that few.never get any jobs, Four or five negros remained around the office for about a week and then left. Among the men who apply are many who are factory hands, or work at a trade, and have never been out- side a city; some of these are clever enough to join an old hand, -and gradually get “wised” to the work without displaying their ignorance too glaringly; others are hopelessly , lost, and as soon as the farmer dis covers they can not drive horses, he, dispenses with their assistance with! annoying speed. Man of 82 Seeks Job In the fifty or more men who came daily to the office, are representatives of every trade, every.nationality, and every age. A patriarch of 82 asked for a job as separator man recently, was unable to get a job. The fact that he walked with a cane and was generally decrepit, might have add- ed to his difficulties in obtaining it. Students who are working their way | across the country, or simply out for money to assist in paying the college expenses are quite common, a group of four or five traveling in a car to- gether. A large percentage of the men are following the harvest from Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa, on north, ex- pecting to end up eventually in Can-| ada. Probably two percent of the labor- ers cannot talk English, One farm- er complained quite bitterly because he been sent a man whose only English was “yes sir,” “no and a choice swearing vocabulary, Wages are being based a gdod deal upon the value of the man; as a larger number of the men are inex- perienced than before, a set scale has been found impractical. .A thoroughbred Shetland pony is no more than 40 inches high, yet it is capable of carrying a full-grown man on its back, One farm in Surrey makes a spe- {marker news ]}¥.D.
