For every one of those fifteen rounds, McLarnin, hoping always to land the smash that stowed away the ghost of the ghetto, piled into the champion—and into a storm of punches that battered his features almost beyond recognition. It was the attack of a youngster who didn’t know what fear meant, a kid with a fighting heart that couldn’t be slackened, the attack of a bull pup into the jaws of a flect, slashing terrier.

Jimmy hammered both hands ceaselessly into Mandell’s body and slowed him up. To the Last Ditch Jimmy’s cause was hopeless in the face of the champ’s powcr, when he hammered in again to even the ninth and win the tenth.

GOULD (Associated Press Sports Editor) New York, May 22,—()—The greatest broad jumper of all time, negro and former University o! Michigan star, will be America’s chief hope for. first place in the Olympic championship this year. National champion for the past ix years, Hubbard will defend the itle he won in the Olympics at Paris four years ago on a weak and injured ankle. damaged foot, hurt on the take-off, Hubbard was able to clear well over 24 “feet and outjump the world’s best. No other jumper has ever ap- proached Hubbard’s achievements. S. J. Atkinson, South African hur- dler, was credited'some months ago ith the unheard-of leap of 26 feet. ut this was later proved to be fictitious. Hubbard has perfect - build and in 9 3-5, world’s record time. He {gets tremendous distance with his famous scissors kick after taking the air. Comparison gives the best indica- tion of Hubbard's remarkable rec- ord. In the six years he has won the National A. A. U. title he has never failed to do less than 24 feet. In the past three years up to Hubbard's time only one other national champion, Sol Butler Dubuaue, Iowa, another negro, sur- passed 24 feet. Hubbard holds the present world’s record of 25 feet, 10 7-8 inche: made in 1925 in his last anpearan: in a college meet for the University of Michigan. He jumped over 26 feet in a meet at Cincinnati a year ago, but on a technicality this mark was not acce| . Barring an accident, Hubbard will be an odds-on favorite to repeat his Olympic victory.

The Olympic record of 24 feet, 11 1-4 inches, made by Albert Gut- terson, the old Vermont star, in the 1912 Games, will be Hubbard’s mark this year. Gutterson cleared this distance at Stockholm in his first preliminary try, within a half inch of the world’s record at that time. Neither he nor any other competitor came even close to it in the subse- quent jumps. Frank Irons, who had broken the Olympic record in 1908, tried to re- peat in the 1912 meet, but did no better than ninth. Eddie Farrell, now Harvard and Olympic coach was fourteenth. The late Myer Prinstein, who competed for Syracuse and the old Irish-American A. C., was the only athlete to win the Olympic title twice, in 1904 and 1906. Wilton Hits Freely to Beat Regan, 9-1 Wilton, N. D., lay 22.—Wilton Sunday won its first game of the season by hitting freely and play- has; ing tight baseball on the defense, the Regan nine going down by a 9 to 1 count. Michel allowed six hits and struck out 10 men, Smith was nicked for 14 hits and fanned six. Next Sunday, the crack A. O. U. W. lodge team from Bismarck will oppose the Miners on the home field. The box score: SNAP WINNING | STREAK OF NEW YORK YANKEES Mack’s Athletics Move Closer to Ruthmen by Downing Senators Twice SPEAKER-MILLER HURT Hack Wilson Passes Bisson- ette in Home Run Race by Walloping Two (By the Associated Press) The Boston Red Sox, long the butt of many a baseball jest, no longer are doormats to be tramped on with impunity by the rest of the Amer- ican League. After a fine showing against the invading clubs in the recent inter- sectional series, the Red Sox came to New York yesterday, snapped an eight game winning streak of the New York Yankees in the first en- counter of a double-header and then saw their own string of consecutive wins ended at seven in the nightcap. Given the breaks, the Red Sox would have won both games. Bill Morris kept the champions’ nine hits scattered in the first game and ran off with an 8 to 4 decision. Boston got only six hits off three Yankee pitchers but two of these were home runs by Regan and Todt, each time with a man on base. The Yankees got their revenge in the second game when they made only four hits off Ruffing, but won, 3 to 2. Meusel’s homer with two on in the sixth turned the trick. Hoyt was touched for eight hits, one a four base drive by Taitt. Athletics Take Two At Philadelphia the Athletics moved up to within three and one- half games of the Yanks by taking both ends of a double header from the faltering Washington Senators, 4 to 3, and 2 to 1. Old Jack Quinn won the first game with a single in the thirteenth inning. It was Quinn’s fifth straight pitching win. Rube Walberg ran his own string to six straight by holding the Senators safe in the nightcap. The first victory was costly to the mackmen for Tris Speaker and Bing Miller collided going after a drive from Reeves’ bat and may be out of the game for several days. Hadley held Connie Mack’s crew to three hits in the second game but one was a homer by Jimmy Dykes in the third and another a double by French in the fourth which scored the second run. Six Homers Made In the National League the Chi- cago Cubs came out on the short end of a home-run battle with the St. Louis Cardinals, 8 to 7. Hack Wil- son hit two home runs, each time with a man on base but Bottomley duplicated the feat for the Cardi- nals. Bottomley had help as well from Harper and Roettger who also made circuit drives. Wilson's two homers gave him eight for the sea- son, one more than Del Bissonctte, of Brooklyn. The Cincinnati Reds moved up to within half a game of the Cubs by splitting even in two games with the Pittsburgh pirates. Two Pirate errors gave the reds the first game, 4 to 3, although Joe Dawson allowed only-six hits. The second encounter was a tight due between Jakie May and Fred Russell, rival southpaws. Jakie was pounded out of the box in the ninth, however, when the Cor- sairs scored twice and made the vic- tory sure. Ray Kolp, Cincinnati pitcher, and sparky adams, Pirates second baseman, have contracted in- fluenza and are out of the game for an indefinite period. All other Major League clubs had an open date.

D., May 22.— Bennie Berger, local theatre mag- nate and sometime fight promoter has announced that he has signed Battling Krause of Hazen, N. D., with Louis Kid Fettig of Grand Forks for a ten-round match here June 1. The contest will be the main attraction of a card to be held at the Metropolitan. The battle with the veteran Krause will be the big test of Fet- tig, whom Berger plans to shove to the front if he can beat the colorful battler from the west. The pro- moter stated if the local boy could win his match June 1st he would get him a return engagement with Herman Ratzlaff. Ratzlaff outpointed Fettig here something over a year ago and since that time had piled up a string of impressive victories, chief among which are decisions over Morrie Green and Bobbie O’Shea of Minne- apolis. Fettig Improves However, Grand Forks fans have watched Fettie’s steady improve- ment during the past year and figure he will not only beat Krause but make Ratzlaff step his fastest to win. The local youngster’s last two appearances resulted in de- cisive victories over Satch Nelson and Earl Orton of Fargo. Berger believes that Bat Krause is still the big favorite in North Da- kota and still good enough to give any of the boys in these parts plen- ty to think about. He points out Krause’s recent draw with Ratzlaff at Bismarck as evidence that the old Rattler is pretty good yet. The promoter says he picked Krause for Fettig because he can stand up under the local boy’s heavy punching, and at the same time drive them home himself and be- cause his draw with Ratzlaff makes him a natural opponent for the local boy, who wants to meet the Minot iron man again. 4 Not So Sure Berger claims Krause will pack them in here the same as ever be- cause he always gives the fans a run for their_money and he is not so sure as Fettig’s friends about the outcome. The last appearance of the Hazen veteran was the occasion of the wildest scene at a Grand Forks card, although Krause had no part in the demonstration. It was his only meeting with Russie LeRoy of Fargo, which the battler won on a foul. Referee Johnnie Knauf gave the decision to Krause after LeRoy had hit the veteran low several times. His verdict was a signal for Jack Hurley, manager of LeRoy, to leap into the ring and launch an attack against the referee. He failed to reach his objective, however, and the ib gine oll sauares circle was filled with spectators. The near riot proved a bloodless one, however, as all the fans seemed | ¢, to be bent on preventing trouble in- stead of promoting any more and order was quickly restored.

D., May 22.— Chalk talks and lectures for this fall’s football season at the Univer- sity of North Dakota will be supple- mented by semi-slow motion pic- tures according to an arrangement arrived at between C. A. West, new director and coach, and Duane Diehl, Bismarck, amateur camera man and sophomore student at the Univer- sity of North Dakota. Diehl’s recent showing of “Pathetic News,” university movie, taken and edited by himself, has in- dicated that North Dakota boasts a genius along this line. Coach West, upon hearing of Diehl’s prowess, asked him recently for his assist- ance this autumn. x To Get New Camera A new moving picture camera is to be purchased by Mr. Diehl. When football camp opens this September he will take action views of scrim- mages, These will be exhibited in slow motion on the screen before the football players, and Coach West will then be able to point out mis- takes. This idea of instructing football players at the present time is only in use at a few of the larger uni- versities, according to Coach West, who stated that North Dakota was BISMARCK BOY T0 |f TUESDAY, MAY 22, 1928 Pi Try Again,” Says Gene Gene Sarazen, American golfer who finished second in the British Open Championship, is shown here as he returned home for another year of Practice. Displaying the same per- severance that carried him from caddy to potential champion, he indeed fortunate to have a camera man on the campus like Mr. Diehl. More Publicity Diehl will use his new camera to take moving pictures of all games in the stadium this fall. Still pic- tures showing action can be made from these by running the film through the projector, Mr. Diehl de- clared. Such pictures can be used in newspapers and in the Dacotah. North Dakota has always been shy on pictures in its publicity work, especially pictures denoting action, and Mr. Diehl’s camera, it is expected, will remedy this. A new reel is to be formed this fall for advertising football games. Members of the Stadium campaign board believe that glimpses of foot- ball action from scrimmages and games, and the crowds in the sta- dium, pieced together in an attrac- tive roll would be readily used throughout the states before North Dakota’s home games. This plan will be worked out later with Mr. Diehl. With his new machine, North Da- kota’s camera expert also. plans an invasion of the drama and comedy field for the coming year. These pictures, he believes, would be readily used by Pathe News, Fox Films, and other distributing com- pares. STATE TRAPSHOOT DATES ARE FIXED Changed Twice, North Dakota Gunners to Gather in Forks : in June Grand Forks, N. D., May 22.— Dates for the North Dakota State trapshooting tournament, which have been changed twice in the last two months, have now been definite- ly set for June 17, 18 and 19 ac- cording to J. B. h, field cap- tain of the Grand Forks Gun.club. The difficulty of getting. definite dates for the meet has resulted from confusion of the American Trap- shooting association and state of- ficials, but both bodies have sanc- tioned the last named time for the meet. ° Local gun club members are mak- ing extensive preparations for the meet, through frequent practices as well as putting the field at the fair grounds in first class. condition. Three new auto angle traps are be- ing installed for the tournament.

Freddy Heimach, the ace of the Saints’ pitching staff, tried to stop Milwaukee's onslaught of base hits but failed. It was his second de- feat in three days. Bunny Brief led the Brewers’ attack with a homer, a double and one single. Minneapolis climbed over Kansas City and into third place by defeat- ing the Blues, 5 to 1, in the other contest of the day.
