Kew Rockford is 60 miles from Val- ley City and 160 miles from Bis- marck, 126 Stars atered Other entries received today were from Wilton, Dawson, New Salem, Fort Yates, and Elgin. More than 126 contestants are cntered at the present time. : Additional entries are today and Mr. Bi ated that it would not be a surprise if there ‘were more than 25 schools and 150 athletes contesting for the many medals and trophies that are to .2 given to the ~hampions. ‘ Every track fan in Bismarck this week is scanning the skies and weather reports, hopeful that Jupi- ter Pluvius -~ill not make a week- end visit or vent a pre-meet wrath by deluging the track which is be- ing put in A-1 shape. Officials Announced Officials who will handle the meet were announced today by Mr. Brown. a They are: Starter—W. G. Fulton; Timers—Chick Hagen, Mandan; P. orwils J. G. MacGregor; Judges ‘of .Ranning nts—L. G. Thompson, and L. F. Murphy, Man- dan; Judges of Weights—G. D. Brown and R. L. Wells; Judges of expected Kolberg; Police—Lettermen of Bis- Back High; Tickets—R. H. Neff; Field Manager—Frank H. Brown. No spectators will be allowed on the field or along the running lanes, Mr. Brown said today. The co-op- eration of every spectator is re- quested in this matter as the suc- cessful staging of the meet depends largely on the rapidity with wh the events can be run off and a crowd on the field will hamper the work of the officials. 36 Cars Enter 500- Mile Memorial Day Indianapolis Race pt Ind., May 2.-—-(#)-- y-six cars have been entered for the annual 500 mile race at t Indianapolis motor speedway M closed at midnight last night.

Seven Straight Wins Connie Mack’s Philadelphia Ath- letics kept pace -vith the title-hold- jers by beating the Red Sox at Bos- ton, 5 to 3, stretching their winning streak to seven in a row. Cobb's ingle in the eighth drove in the ty- jing and winning runs. Lefty Grove was batted freely by Boston for six innings and was removed for a pinch hitter during the raily that won the game for Mack and company. Cleveland retained second place, a step ahead of the Mackmen, by tak- ing a 4 to 3 battle with the St. Louis Browns. Blue’s error in the eighth paved the way for the Indians’ win- ning run. Sixteen hits, seven of the them doubles, allowec the Detroit Tigers to bury the Chicago White Sox un- der a 10 to 5 score. Billings ran jinto a storm of White Sox hits in the seventh, including a home run by Barnabe with two on base. He removed and Stoner stopped the | Sox splurge at five runs. } Giants in First Place By scoring their second straight win over Brooklyn, 4 to 2, the New York Giants moved into first place in the National league race, a half- e ahead cf the Dodgers. The Giants hit Dazzy Vaace freely. The Dodgers woke up enough to drive Fred Fitzsimmcns to cover in the eighth but Faulkner's left handed shoots were too much_ for them. George Harper hit the Giants’ 17th homer in 12 games. Old Grover Alexander was sub- jected to a terrific barrage as the Cincinnati Reds beat the Cardinals at St. Louis, 6 to 3. Alex granted 12 hits and all six ulien runs in the seven innings he worked. St. Louis, with Hafey, O'Farrell, Holm and Sherdel on the injured list, now has lost three games in a row. Hill Allows Only Five Hits Carmen Hill turned in another fine performance at Pittsburgh as the Pirates beat the Cubs again, 4 to 1. The be-spectacled mound star held Joe McCarthy’s aggregation to five hits, all of which came in the first four innings. George Grant- ham had a perfect day at bat with two singles and a double that drove in two runs. Bunched hits off Walsh and Mil- ler gave the Boston Braves their second straight win over the Phils, 5 to 3. Burrus, of the Braves, hit his second homer in two days.

Every man is more than six feet tall and the average is over 6 feet 2 and just under 180 pounds. _ Columbia Is Favorite This crew looks great on paper —where it has done all its racing thus far this season—and if there is a favorite, at this early date, to win at Poughkeepsie and in the Olympic trials it is none other than this Columbia eight. Just how good a claim it has to such a rating can be told in part before very long, as Columbia is to open its season May 5 on the Schuylkill at Phladelphia in_ the Blackwell Cup race against Penn- sylvania and Yale, two of its most formidable rivals. Instead of the usual two miles the distance will be a mile and a ha’, which is near- er to the Olympic distance. This is to be the first general engagement of the college rowing season. The only previous races have been dual ‘regattas such as those in which California beat Washington and the Navy beat Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. Incidentally, both victories were won by a mere _half-length, lending force to various coaches’ predictions of a warm year on the water. __In the long grind of spring train- ing bad luck has struck again and again at the Columbia crew, but at this writing the jinx appears to have been pretty well outdistanced. a Jinx Flabbergasted _ First Eric Lambart met. scholas- tic difficulties and it looked for a time as though this great stroke oar might be lost to the crew.

He reports several cases where{ the brain of a boxer who died from! a knockout blow showed no morbid; changes, but part of the cerebrum as well as the base of the brain were covered with a layer »f blood half an inch thick. This subdural bleeding is explained, he says, by the serious tension which arises in the skull from the blows, causing the blood vessels to be torn away from the arteries. Dr. Gaardlund’s words of warn- pest are echoed by another Swaiish ntist who points out that every knockout blow means a concussion of the brain which may eventually cause idiocy. These statements have aroused a discussion in Swedish svortine c’ cles as to whether it would be a visable to introduce a counting of Points and do away entirely with the knockouts, but boxing experts declare that this would reduce the niimber of spectators at boxing matches since the retrons always expect a sensational blow.
