Nov. 2.—(#)—This is the tale of Solon Gray, a young Atlanta golfer, who sliced his way to a “hole-in-one” and an award of $500 which dwindled within a day to $15.45. Gray, an 18-year-old youth from Capital City, Ga., shot a 90 in the qualifying round of the Georgia State Golf Tournament and was not | a contender in the championship fight, but for a few hours he enjoyed a thrill not accorded to his more ac- | curate contemporaries. . The 1%h hole of the Druid Hills Club, where the tournament was held, is probably the only “endowed” hole in America. Some 15 years ago a club manager who, tradition says, was “razzed” by his fellow golfers for his showing on this hole, placed a sum of money at compound interest to be paid the first golfer who made the hole in one shot. That sum grew, it was reported, to an amount approximating $500. Only once, until Gray’s feat was recorded, was the prize threatened. Several years ago a player pulled his shot out of bounds and then sank his tee shot for a two. The hole is one of the best one-shotters in Amer- ica, according to experts. It is 185 yards in length and _ beautifully panel by a diagonal stream in ront and a bluff and trap in the rear. Young Gray in playing his shot selected a brassie and teed his ball high. His drive proved to be an “educated” slice which curved gently over a nearby road and then back to the fairway to drop on the green about 10 yards from the pin and then back to the fairway to drop on the green about 10 yards from the pin and roll into the cup. Immediately he was surrounded by a throng which offered congratula-. tions. Cameras snapped and the crowd cheered, while Gray visioned the $500, prize he had captured. Investigation, however, revealed that the irate golfer who endowed the links was not as wrathy as it had been anticipated. Instead he had deposited only $10 in the bank and this sum compounded had grown to $15.45 and not $500.

Nov. (P) | —Michigan State College, which ; gave a Freddy Alderman to the} American Olympic team, this year presents Lauren P. Brown, the flying midget, in its athletic bookings for the cross-country season. Brown who is variously termed a midget, half pint and other dimin- utives, weighs but 115 pounds by any man’s drug store scales. But the little distance runner has a track record which has made him a source of fear for every track coach in this section of the country for the last two years.

The two stars are Jimmy Eckel, of the eastern outfit, and Orville Maule, former Dickinson high school foot- ball and basketball ace. Valley Team Strong . Valley City has had an exception- ally good season, being one of the leaders in the teachers college con- ference. The Vikings have lost to only the Moorhead Reds in the con- ference. Dickinson boasts this year of one of the strongest teams in its his- tory. And the Dickinson youths ex- pect to win the game here tomorrow. Jimmy Eckel was an all-state foot- ball halfback when he played with Valley City high school a few years ago. He is renuted to be one of the greatest open field runners in the state. He was also a flash on the basketball court, Maule Is Slick’ Maule is another great ficld ner. Last year he played half the University of North Dalota freshmen eleven, failing to return to the Flickertail institution this year. The game is being sponsored by the Bismarck high school ataletic as- sociation, The two teams chose to play in Bismarck after reaching an agreement to meet ona neutral field.

This young outfielder chalked up a .359 batting average in the Pacific Coast League this summer. HUMILIATED BISON MEET MORNINGSIDE Fargo, N. D., Nov. 2.—A humil- iated and mad North Dakota Agri- cultural college football team is on its way to Sioux City today. Angry because of its defeat at the hands of the Nodaks in last Saturday’s homecoming battle, Stanley Bor- leske’s clan hope to regain a place in the good graces of the Bison fans tomorrow by upsetting Jim Saun- derson’s Morningside Maroons. The occasion is the feature of the Morn- ingside homecoming, and the Bison’s second conference start. The unexpected weakness in of- fensive power shown by the Bison eleven in. last Saturday’s tilt was such a distinct reversal of form dis- ; played in previous games that Bor- leske adherents believe it was just a case of stage fright occasioned by the importance of the contest. At any rate, the student body agrees that the Maroons will meet a reborn foe tomorrow. +Morningside’s reputation as a passing outfit has led Borleske and Finnegan to lay stress on the over- head defense in practice sessions the past week. It was the Maroon’s ability to heave the pigskin effec- Meeting Dated {ively through the ether that enabled them to score two touchdowns against the University of North Da- kota and to defeat the South Dakota Coyotes.

D., Nov. 2—Bison fresh- men prospects of revenging a defeat administered them by the Nodak frosh earlier in the season bright- ened considerably today when it was learned that Cy. Lonsbrough, Bob Lowe’s stellar fullback, will be in condition to play when the two teams meet at Fargo tomorrow.’ Cy was unable to play in the first yearli: game, because of a ‘sprained ankle. No injury _alibis will be offered tomorrow. Sam Westgate, Grafton halfback, has practically recovered from an arm injury that handicapped him in the University struggle, and will undoubtedly see lots of action. The remainder of the team is in ex- cellent condition, and anxious to make amends for the 13-0 humili- ation at the hands of the Flicker rosh, The Baby Bison line has received the most attention during tthe past few weeks in-an attempt to raise it on a par with the Flicker forward wall. Changes have been constantly made in an endeavor to perfect some sort of defense against the powerful lunging Nodak backs. The Bison ckfield looks good, however, with Lonsbrough, Fisher, Walsh, West- gate and Fairhead comprising the niftiest set of ball carriers ever seen on a yellow and green yearling squad. If Lonsbrough and Burma come up to expectations, the contest is apt to develop into a battle of fullbacks with the strongest line deciding the fray: Burma starred for the Uni- versity frosh in the first game and, while Lonsbrough has not been tested’ yet, Bison fans believe he is every bit as good. HORNSBY WORD COMES IN WEEK Chicago, Nov. 2.—(AP)—Presi- dent W. L. Veeck, of the Chicago Cubs intimated today that the sta- tus of Rogers Hornsby’s 1929 base- ball affiliations probably would be settled next week. While refusing to admit that negotiations were under way for the purchase of the Braves’ manager and second baseman, President Veeck guardedly hinted that there would be definite announcement within a few days. i. “There is nothing new on the Hornsby situation _today,” said Veeck, “but there will probably be next week.” THREE IN THIS RACE All-America fullback honors for this year, according to most critics, will go to either Hoffman of Stan- ford, Nagurski of Minnesota or Mc- Lain of Iowa, with Hoffman having the choice. worry,. while the rest of the squad is in extellent condition and anxious for action.
