NUMBER MAY RISE AS LATE ENTRIES ARE CHECKED IN Fargo, Winner of Grand Forks State Meet, Will Enter 13 Contestants DICKINSON TO SEND TEAM Prep Records May Fall State’s Best Close North Dakota Track Year ‘Twenty-five: North Dakota high| is had entered 101 athletes in the 14th annual running of the Cap- ital City track meet, now combined with the Bismarck state meet which will be run off here Saturday, W. H. Payne, manager, said Thursday. Payne predicted that the entry list might be swelled to between 115 and 125 as late entries are checked in be- fore the initial event is called at 10:15 a. m. Saturday. Last year the meet attracted about 150 participants, Squads from six major high schools as well as from several smaller schools that have shown up well in Pre-meet competition indicate that spectators at the carnival here will see some of the best performances in the state this year. Fargo, winner of the official state meet at Grand Forks three weeks ago, has entered 13 men, and may rule as a slight favorite despite the presence of both Bismarck and Dickinson, ma- jor contenders for the crown won by the Midgets at Grand Forks. All records posted here Saturday will be recognized as official state marks, officials of the state high school league stated, and indications are that several established standards will be endangered. Several have al- ready. been set up in the state this year in previous meets, and since the local meet comes late in the season after athletes have had a chance to get into top form -cinder fans are looking for the state's best to lead ® vigorous onslaught again Saturday. Thus far the following entries have been received: Beach—Edwin Carlson, Joe Niece.

Sports Round-Up By EDDIE BRIETZ New York, May 27.—(%)—George Coffman, Detroit Tiger rookie who made his major debut by trimming Lefty Grove the other day and then was knocked out by the Yankees Wed- nesday, is named George Richard... His brother, who tosses for the Giants, is named Richard George . . . Inside story is that Van Mungo’s eye was bashed by a telephone and not Jimmy Bucher’s first . . . Remarkable how this hotel furniture has a habit of Popping up and tagging a guy... At- tention scouts: Randy Heflin, 18-year- old right hander who has just pitched Fredericksburg (Va.) high to its first state title, struck out 95 batters in 52 innings, yielded only 18 hits and two earned runs ... They say he would have done even better, but none of the catchers could hold him down. Kidney stew is Jimmy Braddock’s favorite dish as he trains for Joe . The bomber sticks to fried chicken, but has had to cut down on i... ey is pulling hard for Mickey Coc! . When he was hit on the head a oy “Bump Hadley’s fast one, the lick could be heard all over the Yankee stadium ... Mickey has had more than his share of tough luck, all right ... Just a few minutes before the accident some of the Tigers were discussing how narrowly Coch- rane escaped being beaned in Wash- j|Harold (Speed) Johnson's fifth edi- tion of “Who's Who in the Major Leagues” is out with 578 photos of players, umpires, managers, etc., more than 400 autographs and many other features that make it a great book for the fans. Fresh reports from Wisconsin’s spring football camp are that you can watch out for those Badgers... Looks like Coach Harry Stuhidreher 4s going to get his Cardinal-clad war- Tiprs back on the grid map much earl- fer than his keenest supporters hoped. He's uncovered an all-around becktield star and has an attack in THE Near INTERNATIONAL TRUCKS MAGNIFICENT “Very badly?” he asked. His wife told him no and he seemed relieved. Actually the Tigers were beaten by the Yankees, 7-0. The bulletin said “signs of a cerebral concussion have diminished. The possibility of infection and sec- ondary meningitis is still present.” One of the doctors expressed the belief the crisis would be reached within the next 24 hours. If the De- troit manager, who was beaned by ® pitch thrown by Bump Hadley of the Yankees, Tuesday, can hold his own in that time, his shane are much greater, the making that presages plenty of grief for other Big Ten outfits... Major league scorekeepers and print- ers can get ready for trouble... the name is “‘Jelincich” and he’s due to graduate to the Cincinnati Reds from Durham in the Piedmont league ‘where he’s now sparkling behind the platter . . . Kid Chocolate, who has been making a comeback on the New York subway circuit, gets another shot on the big time when he goes against Al Reid at the Hippodrome next Wednesday night. MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS Runs—Cochrane Walker, Green- berg and Gehringer, Tigers 27 each. Hits—Walker, Tigers 48; Bell, Browns and Lary, Indians 46 Pitching — Hubbell, Giants 1-0; Bowman, Pirates and Warneke, Cardinals 5-1 each. Hoosiers Still Could Tie for Big 10 Title Chicago, May 27—(4)—Certain of a half interest in the 1937 baseball championship, Illinois Thursday wished Indiana a lot of bad luck at nesday with a 3 to 2 triumph over Northwestern at Champaign, finish- ing with a record of nine victories arid one defeat. In order to match Illinois’ mark and gain a title split, the Hoosiers must whip Ohio State twice on the Buckeyes’ home grounds.

As you guessed, Harry was the favorite.

Mr. Grimes would the notion that this treet Tl : E i E L ington L 464 Anyway) a fieews would belt out a flock of home Mack Helped Grove Old Connie Mack, himself, wasn’t above fixing up his park to aid his players. ‘When long and lean Lefty Grove was rearing back and firing them in for the Athletics a few years back, Mr. Mack had his groundkeeper build up the Shibe Park pitching mound to the maximum height of 15 inches above the home plate. Indignant rival managers, sick of seeing Grove's fireball sweeping down on the batter from the clouds, claimed that Mr. Mack really had the mound higher than permitted by law. Mr. Clark Griffih had different 7] ideas when his speedball king, Walter Johnson, was reigning. Sir Walter, you see, was so superior to his American League contem- Poraries that he needed no geological help, but, on the other hand, the Washington hitters, as ever, were rather weak. So Griff had the Wash- pitchin@ mound shaved down to the level of the rest of the infield, thus enabling the local boys to find the rival pitchers easier to hit. McGraw Did It, Too John McGraw, who learned his stuff from the old Oribles, was not above such tricks, either. He was once accused of raising the Polo Grounds, base lines slightly, making the field somewhat saucer- shaped, so that his team, ail of them expert bunters, would be just that much better at the art of laying ‘em down and beating ‘em out. And another time, the boys say that McGraw put powdered soap in the dirt around the pitcher’s box so that when the rival hurler would rub his sweaty hands in the dust his grip on the ball would be lessened. The Giants’ pitchers, of course, had been lee off by McGraw where the doc- tored dirt was and they weren't af- fected. And that reminds me ... I won- der if the Boston Red Sox grounds crew still sprays the left side of their infield before each game like they did last year so that it wouldn’t be too fast for Mr. Joe Cronin, the short- stop? Pauson was the first cartoonist of whom there is record, Aristotle men- tioned that Pauson was punished for his caricatures, evidently political in nature, but it is not known whom Pau- son satirized. eee RE NOTICE TO CREDITORS IN THE BATTER OF THE ESTATE jie Turnbull Sweeney, De- i hereby given by the un- George F.
