Sept. 20.— Athictic stock at has soared upward with the an-j} nouncement by A. H. Parroit. regis- trar, that a number of outstanding North Dakota and Minnesota high ool stars have registered as fresh- en ai the college. ! ng them is Lawrence Knauf t year. Knauf won the Min- nesota state track meet singlehanded festival track meet at North Dakota | State college. Viv McKay, Valley City, all state! basketball center last season and an outstanding football prospect, also has registered at State college. McKay was one of the big factors that car- ied the Hiliners to the state basket- ball championship. Robert Weir, six- foot, six-inch star Fargo high school center is one of the finest freshman additions to have registered at the Bison school. Robert Goodman, speedy Devil Lake track man and a promising freshman football prospect, already has entered the Bison camp and| drawn a uniform for early grid prac- | tice. Goodman won the mile and half mile runs at the state track meet this spring. Martin Enders, another Fargo high school star with a win- ning discus arm, has joined the fresh- man ranks and is rated by Coach C. C. Finnegan as another promising foot- | ball candidate. $ | August Swartz, Bismarck, is another | welcome addition to the freshman | basketball ranks at state college. Be- sides being a star performer at the center position Swartz is an out- standing track man, Last year he ord at State college with a leap of five feet nine and one-eighth inches. only major sports champions who still have to walk the tight wire are Glenna Collett, queen of women golf- ers, and a few synthetic boxing bar- ons.

Fonseca used to be regarded as a brittle player who melted when the sun began to warm up. He had a This year he has sun never gets too warm for him.

Grove Giants Won cine 17 of 21 Contests 1 vaio sa t After Meek Challenge Boomer Brooker has become quite indignant over the challenge flung at him by Billy Meek, Bismarck 112- Pounder. Meek means little to the North Da- kota featherweight champion, who charges that Billy will be meeker than ever if a fight between them is arranged. The capital city clouter challenged Indignan Boomer boomed to the featherweight throne by beating Bobby Laurent, Mi- not. The champ didn’t mind that much. But Billy has been pressing his challenge, despite the fact that he would have to give the Boomer quite a weight advantage. and this persist- ence has bruised the boomer's good nature. The Mandan boy had the following statement to make this morning: “I’ve read so much about Billy Meek and his handlers accusing me of ‘run- ning out of a fight’ with Billy that I must give them a piece of my mind. ‘I didn’t demand the biggest purse in my career as they said, but I won't fight for nothing. “Tl fight Mr. Meek for a rea- | sonable sum or on a ‘winner take all’ basis, if Meek would have it that way, as he is inclined to think he can beat me. |_“Who has Billy Meck ever fought? | Billy hasn't met a fair fighter yet and if the promoters come to terms ‘little Billy’ is going to receive a good box- ing lesson. “He hasn't any business fighting in the same county with me. He doesn't even know what this fight game is all about. Billy is taking too great a short cut to get at the top of the featherweights in the state. If he is a comer I wish him lots of luck and hope he doesn't jose his fighting heart.” And that’s that. The boomer last week-end added another victory to his list in an eight- round semiwindup before a crowd of 4,700 fans at Sidney, Mont. He put Swede Gohrik, Billings, down for the count of nine four times but, though he beat him unmercifully, could not put him away for the count of 10. At present he has no fights ar- ranged definitely, though several pro- moters are bidding for his services. MAJOR.

Among these arc Leksell and Riebeth. halfbacks, who saw service last year on the “B” team; Anderson, Nelson. and Kres- zowski, ends; Kroll. Berghs, Berry, and Phil Gross in the line; and, of course, Clarence Munn, best known of the new men who have come up from ithe freshman squad of 1928. Petc Somers is classed as anbther prob- yability in the beckfield among new- comers Whether temporary or permanent, the location of big Bronko Nagurski at left tackle does seem to fill what might be called a vacancy. At least the place looks decidedly vacant when Bronk steps out of it. Dr. Spears has called so many back- \ field combinations into temporary ex- istence that no one can get a line on his special inclinations, but it seem; clear that Burdick, Breckmeyer, and Munn are in for lots of work, with Pharmer, Kirk, Timm, Bardwell anti Brownell carrying their share of the burden. Barney Barnhart is ex- pected to return to Minneapolis and get into his uniform by Saturday. { The coach who will head the fresh- man squad at Minnesota seems not to have been singled out as yet. Dr. Spears assistants to date have been Bergman, Matchan, McKinnon, Louis Gross, George Gibson, and Ed. Lynch. Sherman Finger is preparing for his duties with the track men.
