Tex., North Dakota Aggregation Keeps Record Unsullied With 34 to 31 Victory Fargo, N. D., Feb. 8—(?)—Thanks to some uncanny free throwing, the North Dakota Agricultural college's north central conference record is unsullied. The University of South :Dakota Coyotes almost avenged the overtime defeat which the Bison scored in a surprising upset at Ver- milion last week as they spurted in the waning minutes of their return engagement here Saturday night. The Bison finally pulled out in front for a 34-31 conquest of the de- fenders. z The Coyotes took advantage of tem- |porary lapses in the Bison defense, and before hostilities were halted, the Bison had seen # comfortbale mar- gin dwindle away until it was down to a single basket. A free throw with five seconds to go put the Bison safe- ly in front. The Coyotes outscored the Bison from the field, 13 baskets to 11, but the exceptional marksmanship of the Bison from the charity line was the difference between the two teams. The Bison led, 19 to 12 at the half. The game for the first half was jlargely a defensive battle with the ,Bison getting the edge because of frequent fouling by the South Dako- tans, However, the Bison found \pitches from any angle at a premium |in the second half, while the Coyotes |spotted a loophole beneath the net where they sneaked in for follow shots to count five of the six goals made in their harried effort to overtake the conference leaders.

Landquist, district deputy game war- den of Amidon, to furnish feed for the Hungarian partridge and phea- sants in the game preserve a few miles west of New England. “Recent snows have covered the seant feeding grounds and there is grave danger that these birds will starve to death,” Landquist said.

With examinations out of the way, the action will be general and fre- quent for the rest of the season. Northwestern, leading the league with six straight victories, will go to In- diana, while Iowa will play at Minne- sota, and Purdue will come out of hiding after a month of inactivity, against Ohio State at Columbus. Northwestern defeated the Hoosiers, 29 to 23, at Evanston earlier in the season, and will be favored tonight. Indiana, however, has improved its offense and may be the team to check the Wildcats. Purdue, which has played only three games, figures to defeat Ohio State which has played erratically in its five games. Minnesota, ranked as the real threat to Northwestern’s drive, will seek its fifth victory in six starts against Iowa. The Gophers rate the edge, but Iowa, which mauled Chi- cago, 43 to 25, Saturday night, has shown immense improvement with the return of four stars who had been ineligible, and might surprise the Northmen. Saturday's bill calls for four games.

This pair of angle artists, both for- mer champions, have reached the fi- nal match tied for first place with seven victories and three defeats, and tonight will play for the big reward— $7,500 and 16 per cent of the receipts, which will amount to another $2,500. The winner also figures to collect as much as $25,000 more from exhibitors. Kieckhefer will be after his tenth title, which, should he defeat the fidgety Philadelphian, would tie the all time mark of ten championships, held by Johnny Layton of Sedalia, Mo. It will be Reiselt’s sixth title if he is able to overcome the left-hand- ed Chicagoan. Each suffered a defeat Saturday and both lost by the same score in the same number of innings. Arthur Thurnblad of Chicago, the defending champion, took care of Reiselt, while Layton defeated Kieckhefer. The identical scores were 50 to 38, in 49 innings.

Christner to Editor's Note—This is another of an Associated Press series on outstanding young American athletes in the 1932 spotlight, New York, Feb. 8—(?)—Five years ago a lanky, smiling high school youngster rigged up some jumping bars in his home out on Long Island and started in, methodically, to make a high-jumper of himself. ‘Today a visitor to the home of George Spitz, Jr., still can see where those jumping standards were set out. ‘There still is the deep path made by George as he ran, hour after hour, and flung himself over a swaying bamboo pole. It is a path, you might say, that led to a world’s championship. For this same youth, now 19 and in his sophomore year at New York university, set the world’s indoor record at six feet seven inches last year and on Saturday at Millrose games bettered that mark by five- eighths of an inch. Before the current indoor season ends, the experts expect him to bet- ter that mark. Several times, in practice, he has sailed over the bar at six feet 10 inches, but he doubts he ever will at- tain that height in competition. “There's about jumping in @ championship that gets you,” he explained. “The crowd doesn’t scare me. But when they lift that bar an extra inch or two and tell you it’s above the record height, it’s hard to keep from tightening up. I've seen good jumpers fall a foot below their best jump.” With no one to teach him in his backyard days, the tall, black-haired boy worked out a system that he felt suited him. It's a. combination of the old “western roll,” where the head goes over first, and the scis- sors. Where the average jumper gets in one “kick” after he leaves the ground, George uses two. That's how he gets those extra few inches that make him a champion. He goes over backward, his head always higher than his hips.
