HERE FRIDAY NIGHT Rusty Gramling Outpoints Bat McDaniels in Four-Round Boxing Preliminary MATMEN PUT ON GOOD SHOW Former Gopher Star Subdues Opponent With Body Slam, Two Flying Tackles Bronko Nagurski of Gopher foot- ball fame won from Alford Johnson, Minnesota's Swedish champion, after 17 minutes of grappling in their one- fall match headlining the wrestling program staged here Friday night by the North Dakota Shriners. Breaking away from what might have been an excruciatingly painful toehold (but wasn’t), the “Bronc” crashed Johnson to the floor with a convincing enough body slam and then laid the Swede helpless on the mat with two flying tackles after which there was little left to do but pin Johnson’s shoulders to the floor. Nagurski weighed 235 pounds and Johnson 215. Johnson's chief stock in trade was a straight wrist lock, ela- borated by some illegal buckling of the knuckles while Nagurski relied mainly on arm locks and head and body scissors until the time came to Zell his opponent. Nazarian Pins Harben Mike Nazarian of Little Rock, Ark., pinned “Rube” Harben of Georgia after 34 minutes of grunting, groan- ing and grimacing in the best of the sanctioned hippodrome style. Breaking away from “perfect” arm locks, head scissors an@ toe holds, the two battlers created enough of a furore to bring the crowd to their feet yelling for Nazarian’s scalp but it wasn’t the Georgia Hill-Billy’s night to win. The “Little Gamecock” crawled out of the ring close to a dozen times and on four different occasions was brought hurtling back in as Harben reached out and swung his opponent over the ropes in realistic body slams. Nazarian ended the match with a body slam that to all intents left Har- ben writhing in agony on the mat. ‘Harben weighed 215 pounds and Na- zarian 205. Gramling Gets Decision In the four-round preliminary box- ing bout, Rusty Gramling, Bismarck welterweight, shaded Bat McDaniels, formerly of Wilton but now also headquartering out of the Capital City, in a free-hitting affair. McDaniels, covering well and shooting lefts and rights to Gram- ling’s head, gained a narrow margin in both of the first two rounds but came in for some heavy bombard- ment in the third canto and finished weakly in the closing half of the fourth to lose the verdict. Gramling waited each time until Bat had shot his full blast and then stepped in with some nice right up- Ppercuts and left hooks to leave Mc- ‘Daniels’ face spattered with blood when the final gong sounded. Stanley Myslajek played the part of referee during the wrestling events and Dick Demaray officiated during the four-round preliminary. D. E.; Shipley did the announcing and George Heckner kept time. Johnson Ascends To Batting Lead Athletic Star Gains 30 Points in One Week; Arky Vaughan Baseball Four-Hit Pitching Feat of Schumacher Quells Cubs; Newsom Blanks Chisox (By the Associated Press) The first night baseball game in major league history was written down Saturday as a great success. But there still remained the busi- ness of cnecking up on how many of the 20,422 cash customers who turned out at Cincinnati Friday night to see the $50,000 floodlighting system turned on by President Roosevelt in Wash- ington, great preliminary display of of notables and, incidentally, a 2-1 victory for the Reds over the Phillies, would pay to come back some other night. The whole question of baseball after dark in the big leagues seems to hinge upon that matter. The attend- ance at that “experimental” game appeared to justify the cash outlay and to put to rest any fears that players might bé injured because of the strange playing conditions. Reds Held to Four Hits The Reds got only four blows of Joe Bowman and Jim Bivin, who pitched the eighth inning, but they made them count more than Philadelphia's six off Paul Derringer. The nearest thing to the dreaded injury came when Sammy Byrd slammed into the centerfield wall in taking Dolph Camilli’s drive in the sixth but he got right back into ac- tion. The night-game mound perform- ances coming from teams that haven’t seen any great amount of good hurl- ing this season were overshadowed by some of the feats performed in or- dinary daylight. Among these were Hal Schumacher’s four hit shutout of the Cubs and the Giants’ terrific clouting behind it that produced a 13-0 victory and Buck Newsom's feat of blanking the league-leading White Sox with five blows to win his first start for the Senators, 10-0. Cubs Lose Ground The Cub defeat, charged against Roy Henshaw, the first left-hander to lose to New York this year, drop- ped them back into third place be- hind Brooklyn which hammered Dizzy Dean and defeated the Card- inals 5-3 while Les Munns pitched three-hit ball in seven innings of re- lief work. Pittsburgh's Pirates cap- tured the other National League en- counter from Boston, 7-6, despite Ru- pert Thompson's ninth inning homer with the bases crowded. Two changes in the American League standing were recorded as the Indians, thoroughly shaken up by the release of Glen Myatt and the sus- pension of Willie Kamm, lined out 18 hits to bowl over the Athletics 12-2 while the cellar dwelling Browns up- set the Yankees 6-3 on a pair of late homers by Ray Pepper and Jack Burns. That put the Indians back into second pplace. After a day in the second division, the Red Sox returned to fourth place, ending Detroit's five-game winning streak with an 8-4 triumph behind Lefty Grove.

Valley City meted out a neat 8-3 Bill Schommer of Minnesota, seeded number one, was a favorite to |Shellacking to the Bis ss ie win the singles crown in his final against Trevor Weiss, Chicago star, .|and later to team up with Roy Huber to capture the doubles title against Bill Chambers and Bob Neihousen of Ohio State. The matches were anything but a setup for the Gopher pair, however: Schommer advanced to the singles final by defeating Nelson McIninch, Illinois, 6-2, 6-2, and then returned with Huber to land in the doubles {final with a straight set victory at 6-4 over Black and Stafford of Wiscon- sin, Chicago, coached by Amos Alonzo Stagg, Jr. clinched the team title Friday, running its total to 10 points in all divisions of play. Even though the Maroons lose all their matches in the upper and lower classes Satur- day, they should win the team cham- pionship. Minnesota was second with seven points with Illinois and North- western tied for third with four. Iowa and Ohio State each had three, Mich- igan two and Wisconsin one. Purdue and Indiana were not represented. Ohio State Negro Seeks Record Tie Jesse Owens Aims at All-Time Record of Four Firsts in Big Ten Meet Ann Arbor, Mich. May 25.—Ohio State’s Jesse Owens aimed Saturday at a share of the all-time record of four first places in the annual west- ern conference track and field cham- pionship meet—and he appeared as certain of achieving it as Michigan was of winning the team title. The inimitable Buckeye Negro soph- omore was virtually conceded tri- umphs in the 100 and 220-yard dashes, the running broad jump and the low hurdles. It was not beyond probab- ility that he would finish his first conference title meet with four new records, even though he did not ex- ert himself a bit Friday in qualifying for the finals, Big favorites that they were, the Wolverines figured to win the title with a minimum of first places. Owen's goal, outside of providing 20 points for the Ohio cause, was equal- ing the four-victory record set by the late Carl Johnson of Michigan, in the 1919 meet. The Buckeye comet flashed through his 100-yard dash trial in 9.7 sec- onds, and after that, literally loafed in his other qualifying tests. He breezed 220 yards in 21.4 seconds and eased through the low hurdles in 24.9. His one effort in the broad jump was ‘Bronc’ Nagurski Pins Alford Johnson in VALLEY CITY TROUNCES BISMARCK NIN [Reds Turn Back Phillies as Night VINCENT'S WILDNESS After Relieving Dusky Teammate on Mound GAME CALLED IN SEVENTH Local Southpaw Will Have Chance to Redeem Himself Against Beulah Sunday Capitalizing on Lefty Vincent’s wildness in the first inning during which five runs crossed the plate, @ weird ball game here Friday. Neither Vincent nor Lefty Gaines, who was slated to pitch for the Hi- Liners, finished out the first inning, in fact the Hi-Liner southpaw never set foot on the mound. Vincent, shooting his fast portside slants into a stiff southeasterly wind, Shriners’ Main Event E, 8-3, IN WEIRD CONTEST 150 PREP CINDER ‘Set Three Marks Vikings, Led by Haines and Shannon, Make Decisive Bid to Retain Title Valley City, N. D, May 2.—(P)— Three records were shattered as cin- ence track and field records here Fri- day. Led by Haines and Shannon, who set up new records in the broad jump and the shot put respectively, the Valley City Vikings made a decisive bid to retain the loop championship by outscoring their closest opponent nearly two to one. Haines, Valley City, who also is ex- pected to set up new marks in the century and 220-yard dash, leaped 22 feet 7% inches for a new record in the broad jump. Shannon of Valley City heaved the shot 43 feet 9% inches to better the old mark by nine just couldn’t find the rubber and was taken out in favor of lanky Satchel Paige after passing five batters and heaving one wild pitch which, coupled with a double by Cooper, a single by Erickson and a ball, ac- counted for four of Valley City’s five scores. Gaines, batting in ninth position with the bases loaded, was hit by the first ball Paige threw aftér replac- ing his dusky teammate. Paige’s wild heave, which caught Gaines squarely on his throwing arm and forced him to retire without hurling a ball, also forced in the fifth run, Johnson, ‘substituting for Gaines, staggered through the seven inning contest chiefly on the strength of that early five-run lead. Call Game in Seventh ‘The game, called in the seventh be- cause of darkness, evened the two- game series, Bismarck having taken the opening engagement Thursday behind Paige's three-hit elbowing. Vincent’s chance to redeem himself will doubtless come Sunday for he is Manager Churchill’s logical choice to take the mound against the strong Beulah Miners in a game called for 3 p. m., at the local ball park. Bismarck scored twice in the last half of the first inning. Joe Desider- ato got a walk and scored when Al Leary smashed out a long double. Leary came home with the second counter as Red Haley forced “Moose” Johnson out at second after the big left fielder had drawn a base on balls. Paige settled down in the second and third innings and didn't allow a Valley City sticker to reach base. ‘But in the fourth he loosened up enough to allow two more runners to cross home plate. Dermit started the trouble with a sharp single into right field. Allen got a walk. Art Hancock struck out but Cooper laced out his second double scoring Dermit and Allen. Kuppich Hits Homer Marty Kuppich, who last year play- ed with the Fargo-Moorhead Twins in the Northern League, furnished the dynamite in the fifth inning by rid- ing one of Paige’s fast balls out of the park for the visitors’ eighth tally. The locals’ final score came in the last of that inning on three singles in a row by Desiderato, Carl Wessel and Leary. Wessel missed a chance to score when he failed to come home after Haley had flied out to DeBet- ting in right field. 5 Cooper with his two doubles a! Erickson and Dermit each with a pair of singles furnished the batting punch for the invaders while Leary with a double and a single and Paige inches. A third record was set by Sundahl of Jamestown who chalked up a new mark for the javelin at 168 feet, 10 inches. In the finale of field events, Valley City Teachers scored 26 points. Mi- not 17, Mayville 12, Jamestown 7 and Ellendale 1/3. Gronlie Wins Pole Vault Gronlie, Viking conference holder of pole vault and high scoring indi- vidual at the past two conference meets, won first place in the pole vault but will be unable to continue in other events because of an injury sustained earlier this week. Haines of Valley City and Hall of Jamestown won honors in sprint in Preliminaries and Aasen, Mayville, drew first in hurdle events. In the conference golf competition, Billy Sundahl, Jamestown, won medal honors in the first 18 of the 36 hole competition with a 67.

D. Schools Send Athletes N. D te College Stars| Here; prlinianry tier i Run in Morning More than 150 cinder path stars, representing 22 North Dakota high schools, gathered here Saturday for the annual assault on existing records in the twelfth rerewal of the Capital City track and field meet. Preliminary events in the shot put, high jump, 120-yard high hurdles, 100 jand 220-yard dashes, 220-yard iow hurdles, discus, broad jump and jave- lin were run cff Saturday morning with the finals in all, events slated for Saturday afternoon. Most seriously threatened of the present marks were the mile and half records, both set by Behan of Mohall in 1933. Bill Feiler, diminutive Dick- inson star, who holds both state rec- ords in these events, was figured as a sure bet to shatter either the 2:5 standard in the half mile or the 4:43.3 mark in the longer distance. Fargo and Dickinson, two teams that fought it cut in the state meet at Grand Forks last week, were in- stalled as early favorites to capture the team event with Bismarck and Mandan figured to furnish the chief opposition. W. H. Payne acted as starter for the track events Schools entering teams in the meet included Fargo, Dickinson, Mandan, Bismarck, Linton, Wing, Bucyrus, New Salem, Heaton, Stanton, Glad- stone, Garrison, Drake, St. Mary’s, Washburn, Elgin, Solen, Harvey, Car- son, Ashley, Steele and Hettinger. ‘Winners of first and second places will qualify for the state meet to be held here June 7 and 8, under the sanction of the North Dakota high school league.
