Purposing to ' ascertain the en- durance powers of sledge dogs, the soviet’s Aviation Chemical sceiety is promoting a test for mushers and dogs over a route of between 7200 and 8,400 miles. The drive, which is to stretch from Petropavlovsk on Komchatka w, also is desigrated to popularize the great northarn route. - e Chicken pox is a common afflic- tion in Cordova.

At the same time part-time work is afforded students earning their way through school, by employing them on construction work in ex- pansion of athletic quarters. Thus university athletic officers believe they are giving a pertinent answer to any charge that varsiy athletics are being stressed to the disadvantage of the much larger number of students who compete in intramurals. Expenses of major and minor varsity sports have been cut. But |$8,000 has been set aside from last |year’s receipts for studeni labor and intramural equipment. An additional expenditure of $15,- {000 has been authorized for two basketball courts with maple floors YANKEES -HE HIT .359 LAST SEASON — HOW MUCH LONGER caN HE TRavEL BUD TAYLOR KNOCKED OUT BY BEN BASS PHILADELPHIA, Penn., Feb. 17. —Benny Bass, junior lightweight champion, last night knocked out Bud Taylor, of Herre Haute, Indi- ana, in the second round of a scheduled ten round bout by a left to the stomach.

Con- quently their hired men have thad nothing to complain about. i The players in general, other- {wise, have shown a marked en- | thusiasm for continuing among the employed, realizing that the times are not favorable to extended ar- guments with the magnates. It is to be said on behalf of the club owners generally that they have not seized upon general busi- ness conditions for any attempt to coerce the hired hands into work- ing for less money than they might reasonably expect. ‘This attitude, |at least, has been manifest by the |major league executives, who seem to feel confident that the turn- |stiles will click a profitable tune again, whether the depression in other spheres continues or not. ~ Conditions in the minor leagues may develop more serious problems ibefore the year is over. It is cer- |tain that night baseball will be more widely in vogue than ever, in (an attempt to lure the patronage at the gates. For a business man golfer merely engaged in a little “pot-hunting,” George Von Elm has done pretty well in the few months since he forsook amateur ranks. The blond |rover, after picking off a few $500 chunks in Salt Lake City and "‘San Francisco, sliced himself a $6,750 share of the Agua Caliente purse. This makes the winter season a success, especially so if there is any foundation to the rumor that a wealthy admirer of Von Elm in De- lGeorge collected in the way of purses. Von Elm always has been a fine record over the past few ydurs of tournament competition has been more impressive than his match play record.
