oe ~ IMPORTANT GOLF G0 te ~ DETERMINED 10 COP ’ Mrs. Lee Mida Rarely Wins Meet but Her Fight Brings Many Upsets 1S SHOOTING A GOOD GAME Remaining Favorites Who Sur- vived First Round Yester- day Have Easy Matches By PAUL R. MICKELSON Cleveland, Q.. Aug. 28.— (7) — The _ selfsame “Fighting Mike” who carried her to the final green in the quarter- finals at Indian Hill in 1928 blocked # the march of Mrs. Leona Pressler, Los Angeles, to a third straight. women’s western golf championship at. May- ~ field today. Her rival in the second 18-hole bat- tle of match play was Mrs. Lee Mida, Chicago, who rarely wins a golf cham- pionship, but who fights so hard she almost always scatters a trail of up- sets before she herself is eliminated. “Fighting Mike” has played almost identical golf with the champion -. since the tournament opened Monday. Mrs. Pressler scored an 83 to quali! two strokes lower than the stocky Chicagoan, but Mrs. Mida shot a bet- ter game in her initial match play battle yesterday, in which she con- *_ quered Helen Peterson, Evanston, Tll., ‘4 and 3, than the defending title- holder carded in eliminating Mrs. Cur- tis Sohl, Columbus, O., the present Buckeye state champion. Mrs. Press- ler won 2 and 1. Except for a series of bad breaks Mrs. Mida would have defeated the * Los Angeles star last year, and she is * confident of turning the trick this time, as Mrs. Pressler doesn't appear to be as much on her game as during the last two tournaments. ‘The remaining favorites who sur- vived yesterday's round face com- paratively mild competition today. + Virginia Van Wie, Chicago, probably + the most outstanding threat to the champion in the field, was paired + against Rena Nelson, youthful Chi- cagoan; Kathleen Wright of Los An- geles, winner of many minor and ma- jor titles, faced Anne Kennedy, Tulsa, Okla.; Mrs. O. S. Hill, Kansas City, medalist, was paired against Eva May Johnson, Chicago; Mrs. Harley Higbie. * Detroit champion, was paired against Helen MacMorran, Chicago; Mrs. Julian Tyler, Cleveland champion, faced Bernice Wall, Oshkosh, Wis., for- mer Badger state titleholder; Peggy .. Wattles, Buffalo, was matched against Mrs. John Arends, Chicago; and Mrs. Gregg Lifur, Los Angeles, who upset Virginia Wilson, Chicago, yesterday, was faced by Virginia Vilas, Chicago. Coach Forecasts Heavy and Green Magician Eleven Harley Robertson Struck Hard by Commencement at Mi- not High Last Year Minot, N. D., Aug. 28.—Prospects :.for the 1929 Minot high school foot- -ball team are for an aggregation : heavier than last year, but green, according to Coach Harley Robert- son. Many veterans of last year's first string were lost through gradua- tion and other sources, leaving the team to depend a good deal on sec- ond string men and freshmen. Owing to the fact that Minot high does not open until a week after the remaining high schools in the Sioux Land conference, and the greenness of the material, lots of hard work ; will be necessary in order to reach a . par with the other aggregations by the time playing start. The Magicians face a hard schedule this season. The opening clash of the season will be the time honored game with the alumni. This fray is more of a practice game to give the veter- ans a chance to get accustomed to j actual play again and to give the green players a chance to show their stuff under fire. The first interschool clash will be ‘Fighting Mike’ GHCAODENTRANTIS [BROOKER AND LAURENT FINISH , THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28, 1929 Blocks Mrs. Pressler’s March to Another | Finish One-Two-Three at Toronto | cently le: minutes 2: seconds. | with -her trainer. | Martha Norelius, winner of the women’s $10,000 marathon swim at Toronto. staged by William Wrigley, Jr., of Chicago, is shown above, left, in the costume of grease in which she made the 10-mile grind.

Linemen Plentiful These men were on the second {squad or freshman team last year and ; jshould be a big asset to the team. | Art Rakness, who played end last | season, may be shifted in to the back- field as a halfback. Rakness is plenty fast and shifty and a good ball carrier and blocker. Either Stone or Tinker will fill Tinker was used in the snapper back job in a few games last season and showed good prospects. Stone played center on the second squad but was rather green. He is a big fellow, however, and with last year's experi- ence, under his belt, should make a good showing this fall. 1 There should be a merry tussle for the line jobs. Bach, Bartron, Tiegen and Hannaford, all experienced men ;from last season will be back, with considerable new material from the freshman squad coming up. Tinker may be shifted to a guard position if Stone makes the grade at center. Robertson wants a pair of guards who are fast and shifty, to come out of the line and run interference for jthe backs. Tinker fills the bill for {this and has had some experience in {the position. Hannaford, a tackle last jyear, may be used as a back, accord- ing to Robertson. Hannaford is a | good blocker and is fairly fast. | For the end positions, the locals j will have Art Rakness, a veteran of the 1928 aggregation, Senechal, Don Hartl, a tackle last year, Jim Rak- ‘ness and Moritz. ‘Sullivan Gives | Owens Bad Time! | Texas Welterweight on Verge of Knockout Three Times; | My Injures Hand St. Paul, Aug. 2 ()\—My suni-| van, St. Paul welterweight, outpoint- ed Jimmy Owens, Fort Worth, Tex. in @ mauling 10-round bout last night, in the opinion of newspapermen.

They are F. M. Uhler and F. A. Warren, representatives of the bureau of biological survey of the U. S. de- partment of agriculture, and Burnie Maurek, state game and fish com- missioner. The men stated that an ideal game refuge consisted of about 200,000 acres of land with at least one large body of water and several small sloughs for feeding and breeding purposes. The migratory bird conservation act was passed by congress in February of this year for the purpose of pro- tecting northern ducks on their south- ward trek in the fall and to furnish a feeding and breeding ground for local ducks. The act makes provision to meet more effectively the obliga- tions of the United States under the ain by lessening the dangers threaten- ing migratory game birds from drain- age and other causes, though the ac- quisition by: purchase, gift-or lease of areas of land and of water to furnish in perpetuity reservations for the ade- quate protection of such birds. The land desired for refuges are more or less extensive areas of low- lands contiguous to or cmbracing water areas, or they may be areas that. were formerly well suited as feeding and nesting grounds for migratory birds but now useless by reason of drainage developments or evaporation, and subject to restoration to their natural conditions., Ask for Reserves The government will not enter into @ leabe for land without an optional provision to buy the same, unless con- ditions are very unusual. Land in any units offered at exhorbitant prices will not be considered and will only pre- vent the government from undertak- ing purchases within the unit, the fed- eral men declare. Small tracts of land as well as large will be considered within the units designated for pur- chase, but only those lands desirable for wild life purposes will be con- sidered.

Quotations of 8 and 9 to 5 and | some as high as 2 to 1 on Singer have | been offered freely in the past week. | | Indications were that these odds would hold good at ring time.
