Grove {ST FRAME SCORES | ARE SUFPIGENT AS Final Score Is 7 to 4; Johnson Gives Four Walks, Two Hits in First TIGERS OVERCOME BROWNS| Cubs Beat Cards and Phillies Win Unofficial Game in Other Contests (By the Associated Press) Robert Moses Grove of the Phila- delphia Athletics already in this very young season his won as many games from the Yankees as he won all last year. He was combed hard at times ‘at the stadium yesterday in the 7 to 4 triumph of the Mackmen, but he ac- complished what he failed six timcs last year to accomplish. Tt was the first Yankee Sunday at home in 1929 ..nd 40,000 fans paid to see a game which was terminated by rain at the en‘ of the fifth inning. First Inning Damaging The Athletic success was all but ctinched in the very first inning. Young Henry Johnson walked four of the Macks and permitted two others of their number to coilect safe hits, before the veteran Tom Zachary was summoned to the rescue. The net result was four large runs, and al- most the ball gdéme. Jimmy Dykes put on the finishing touches with a home run in the fifth with one Ath- Ietic aboard. Almost everything happened in the 16 to 9 triumph of the Tigers over the Browns at St. Louis. O'Rourke, Alexander and Whitehill hit home runs and Richardson, rookie ‘short- stop of the Detroit team, permitted the Browns to work the hidden ball trick at his. expense. The rest of the Amcrican League Program succumbed to the weather, as did the National League game in Boston. The Giants sat idly about the lobby of their hotel cs a wind- driven storm of rain played about Braves field. Cubs Down Cards The National League Sabbath cam- Ppaign was confined almost exclusively to the repulse of the Cardinals by the Cubs, 4 to 0, for the third Chicago victory in four attempts. Guy Bush let the National League champions down with four hits as Rogers Horns- by collected one more than that for his own personal account. Some 50,- 000 fans turned out for the festivities on Wrigley field.

Forks Leads Fargo In Track Victories Grand Forks, April 22—A 26-year review of the North Dakota Inter- scholastic Track Meet shows the su- periority of Grand Forks and Fargo in the annual cinder duel.

Today, he was but three hours, 48 minutes and 10 sec- onds behind the leader, Pete Gavuzzi of England. Salo covered the Marshall-Effing- ham lap in seven hours, 11 minutes and 45 seconds yesterday, jumping 46 minutes and 33 seconds ahead of Ed Gardner of Seattle, Wash., who had held second place. Gavuzsi tied for fourth place with Phillip Granville of Hamilton, Ont., in the lap. M.I.T. Has Only One Crew Veteran Cambridge, Mass., April 22.—(7)— Phil Holt of Denver, Colo.. was the only varsity oarsman from last year’ Massachusetts Institute of Technol- ogy crew who succeeded in making the first boat during the early sea- | Ng son training this year. ‘The result is that the first crew has been rowing without a single senior seated in the shell excepting the cox- swain. Capt. Edward Tittman of El Paso, Tex., has been forced to row in the second crew. The only veterans, both seniors, were similarly forced out of the varsity shel} by the competition they faced. The crew that has been pointing for the first eastern intercollegiate crew race of the season—that between Tech and the Navy April 20 on the Severn—has been made up of three the 26 years of competition either Grand Forks or Fargo has been perched at the top of the field. Such large high schools as Devils Lake, Bismarck, Jamestown and Minot have not suceeded in winning the title. Devils Lake has threatened many times, placing second in 1904, 1906, 1918 and 1920. Four of the seven past champiors have come from the north country where track has always been import- ant. In the carly days, Langdon, Park River, Pembina and Cavalier were always threatening the leaders. Recently, however, these institutions have been falling by the wayside and such teams as Ellendaje, Oakes and La Moure, have been coming to the fore. The Flatbush Fusilecrs repaired to Flatbush yesterday for an unofficial home game which the Phillies oblig- ingly won by a score of 4-to 1 in seven innings, with a rainstorm threatening every moment before it finally descended. More than 15,000 of the Flatbus’: faithful contributed to sce the unhappy Robins lose their fifth straight. ‘With rain predicted throughout the eastern sector of the battlefront, big league teams feared a further sur- render to the double-headcr column today. Nodaks and Bison | To Meet on Links Fargo, N. D., April 22—Two golf matches with a team representing the University of North Dakota are slated for North Dakota Agricultural col- / Yege followers of the Scotch pastime, according to C. C. Finnegan, athletic director. The Nodaks visit Fargo May 4, with the Bison returning the visit at Grand Forks May 11. Two tennis meets are also carded with the Flickertails on the same dates. The schedule is as follows: May 4—University of North Dakota at Fargo. May 11—University of North Da- kota at Grand Forks. May 18—North Dakota Teachers at Valley City. May 23, 24, 25—Conference meet at Brookings, 8. D. a 2 (By The Associated Press) NATIONAL LEAGUE The strange case of Park River's exploits in North Dakota's track his- tory has no modern equal. This little Walsh county town either tied or won three of the first six state champion- ships between 1903 and 1908. Since that date, its teams have never once appeared among the first four. According to advance track calcu- lations, Fargo should have an excel- lent chance to win the title again this May. If she does, Grand Forks’ record of nine undisputed champion- ships will have been tied. The highest total of points ever scored by a single team found Grand Fork registering 76 counters in 1904. In fact, Grand Forks has been the only school to exceed 50.

Almost every member of the confer- ence planned to send three or more athletes to the games, which wit be held Friday and Saturday. Mllinois, which won three of the re- lays at Kansas Saturday, will be rep- resented by the same teams at Drake; Chicago will send its two-mile team to Drake and its medley and one- mile combinations to Pennsylvania, while Tom Warne of Northwestern and George Otterness of Minnesota will try for new marks in the pole vault at Drake. “Southpaw, Wins Ver- dict 4 to 0 ATTENDANCE FIGURES LOW Indianapolis, by Win Over Kaws Saturday, Has Undis- puted Lead Chicago, April 22.—(#)—Bruno Bet- zel’s Indianapolis Indians are the first undisputed tennants of first place in the 1929 American AséOciation flag race, The tribe whipped Milwaukee for four straight games in their initial series and then continued on their rampage by handing the Kansas City.
