Individual stars hold the center of interest in the meet with the outcome @ tossup because of the number of evenly matched teams who seek the title from Iowa, defending champion, which has the largest number of en- tries. The Hawkeyes won in 1929 with 29 2-3 points with Illinois taking second place with 20 5-6 points. Martin Is Outstanding Purdue, an underdog in the advance reckonings of possible winners, brought an outstanding performer for the meet, Orval J. Martin, who has tue unusual distinction of holding two | of the 10 records of the conference, | the half mile and the mile. | Other individual champions who; will make an attempt to break their own records are George 8, Simpson, Ohio State, in the featured 60-ya dash where he faces serious chal. lenges from a rising crop of sprinters; Hank F.

Athletic Directors Meet Prior to the trials tonight two meet- ings are scheduled, one of athletic directors of conference schools and the other of track, coaches who will draw for running positions and make other final arrangements for, the event. Tonight's preliminaries will consist of trials in the 60-yard the dash, mile and half mile runs, the 70-yard | tree high hurdles, and both trials and semifinals in the 440-yard dash.

The Tigers ae outclassed in every department of Play from the start. Standing out in the play of the victors were Howard Forrest, forward, and Ted Schulz, guard. Forrest had the earmarks of a polished basketball Performer in scoring 10 points and acting as a stabilizer to the quint. ‘Though Schulz was not so polished in floor work, he was just as accurate in shots at the hoop, the guard snar- ing four field goals. Ted Kessel, cen- | h; ter, was another effective player, the lanky one scoring 12 points for high honors.

Two throws and a field goal in the last canto, while Linton was being held scoreless, settled the dispute. E. Kifchmeir and Kunkel played well for the victors while Elwein, a freshman forward substitute, proved one of the nicest performers on the court. Flegel looked the best for the Lions. Lead Changed 7 Times The final game last night, in which the lead changed seven times, brought the closest score of the day as Na- poleon came from behind to wallop Flasher 15 to 13. The Statics were weakened considerably by the loss of their regular center, Danceiser, who is ill at home. H. Elhard, who scored nine points for the victors, was the most effective man on the floor though Dennis and Torkelson, of the losers, played some nice basketball. Ashley and Napoleon were to clash at 9:30 this morning and Mandan and New Salem were scheduled to play at 10:30. In the consolation bracket, Hazelton and Flasher were to meet. at 11:30 this morning. At 6:30 tonight Linton will meet the winner of the 11:30 game this morning. At 7:30 the losers of the two semi-final contests will clash for third place.
