‘ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1931 any Students at University Take Partin Athletics Participation Is Being Maintained ‘Additional Markets. ; | Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 16.—Near- Ty 100 per cent participation in sports is the record established at the Uni- versity of North Dakota in the past year, and being carried out at the present time, according to statistics in a bulletin on intramural athletics now ready for distribution by Frank ‘Webb, alumni secretary. These statistics point out that 944 students particiapte in intramural and varsity sports. With duplications this total reaches 1,734. There are 1,115 men students registered at the university. Track teams have the greatest number of participants, Football is second. Basketball, diamondball, baseball, hockey, tennis, golf, and boxing are next in order of impor- tance. There are, therefore, 10 sports in which students can participate. All athletics at the university are self-supporting. Money used for equipment and improvements is de- rived entirely from ticket sgles, heads of the department stated.“ Nothing is paid for out of university funds; and therefore no item is a cost to the taxpayers of the state. A policy adopted during the past year is the awarding of 70 sweaters to teams winning in intramural com~- petition, This is more than twice the number given in varsity sports. Completion of a nine-hole golf course is in progress. Although the cost.of this project is quite large, it is done entirely at the expense of the athletic department from gate- receipts received in intercollegiate competition, it was stated. The manner in which intramural athletics are handled at the Univer- sity is fully described in the bulletin. It contains articles written by Coach C. A. West, and Assistant Coach C. L. Starbeck. Coach West points out the need for an intramural athletic pro- gram because of its educational and recreational values. “Participants in both the intercol- Jegiate and intramural branches of sport have a first hand opportunity and incentive to acquire the habit of clean wholesome exercise,” he states. “The very nature of these activities | teach them the lessons of loyalty, co- operation, enthusiasm, courage, de- termination, and sportsmanship, and impresses them with the necessity of mental and physical concentration to ‘win success.” Mr. “tarbeck sums up his article by saying, “It is the aim of the de- partment of intramural athletics to; encourage every male student of our: ‘university to partake in its program. } "The saying, ‘Athletics for all, all for | Athletics,’ well expresses our goal.” Al’sPalTellsof Athletic Tosser’ H. King Wade Jr, 12-Year-Old; Buddy of Al Simmons, Wor- ships Ball Player | Hot Springs, Ark., Feb. 16—(?)—Al) Simmons is the greatest ball player | in the major league, even though his/ golf is a bit off at times. This is straight from 12-year-old H. King| ‘Wade, Jr., known in the baseball col-| ony here as “Al's pal.” ‘The lad spends every hour he can with the Philadelphia fence buster and Sundays they tour the links of the Country club. It happens not infrequently that King’s score is low- er than Al's. King’s fether, Dr. H. King Wade, | Sr., a prominent physcian here, took! his son to St, Louis to see the A's! play. Wrist watches were being| given for home runs. ¢ Just before Al went to bat, King said, “Al, you're going to get a homer.” i “Baloney,” was the answer. | But Simmons rapped out his 21s: home run of the season and for the favorable prediction gave the watch! to King with this inscription on the back: “From Al Simmons to H. King dr., twenty-first home run 7/13/30.” | They met two years ago when Sim- mons came here for his arnual pre-| season conditioning. ‘King is bashful about comparing his golf score with Al's, but there is/ no bashfulness in Al's comment. “gure you're good. kid, Don't you) break a hundred?” “aw, baloney.” | But King is not so backward about his baseball. He admits a “kid team” (the term is his) for which he pitches, played seven games last year and did not lose one. “and I pitched four of-them.” Of course. He wants to be a bali yer—or maybe a golfer. orm afraid, though, dad’s going to - make @ doctor out of«me.” Bowman Cage Five | Beats New England) Bowman, N.

Before a game with Washington, Rickey turned in a lineup to the umpire, with Bobby Wallace batting seventh and Jimmy Austin batting eighth. another lineup he kept in the dugout, these two positions were reversed, so Austin and Wallace were batting out of order. The first two times On at bat the pair were easy outs. But his next time up Wallace doubled and sent two runners over the plate. Mi called the umpire’s attention to the mixup. ilan, Washington's manager, trotted in from center and. Wallace was declared out, the runners, were sent back and the game was saved for Washington.
