Farmer Jahns' dreams of meeting

to be realized. The date has been
selected for the match-March 10.

probably in the Metropolitan theatre.
The only thing remaining to make the
bargain complete is for the big Min
neapolis heavyweight to sign the ar
ticles of agreement and it is thought
that he will place his name to the doc
ument today.
When Farmer Jahns was informed
by his manager Sunday that he had
been booked with Ordeman, he looked
as though he had been handed a
check for a million dollars and said.
I am mighty glad. 1 have been
after that fellow for five years. AT
last l am going to have a chance at
n Of the big fellows and that's what
1 nave longed for. Wonder why Or
would meet me before?"
And Farmer Jahns will probably
continue to wonder why Ordeman
would never sign up to meet him he

Jahns has pinned the shoulders Of
every maj he has met this season
to the mat and he is confident that he
can give Ordeman a merry chase for
the honors. He is by far tho best
grappler in North Dakota at the

ROSE IN

Did YOU notice where Raluh Rose
was going to be or tho Olympic team?
Athletic ability will count In the end.
Here is the greatest shot putter in the
world, and We're it not for the fact
that he had worlds of natural ability
the chance are that he would have
never been even a mediocre perform
er with the ball. Rose is so large and
so wonderfully strong that he goes out

there is probably not another line Of
athletic endeavor hat this giant could
make a success in. Yosl tried to
make a football player out of The Cali
fornia Rose, II he failed dismally.
Ralphie was either too lazy or slug
gish to learn the fine points of the
game. On the Michigan campus he
was considered a joke.
Some there were who thought the
giant was yellow. In this connection
they tell a very good story. One day
in h Michigan gymnasium some Of
the students were fooling with the
gloves and several of them started to
have some fun with the giant from
the Pacific slope. When the janitor
and some of the onlookers stopped
the trouble said students were strewn
nd the floor and the Rose was in
blown.
lien the story was started that
Rose was to enter the prize ring and
challenge Jim Jeffries. That wis IN
the days before the while hope be-
came fashionable. Had the gigantic
shot putter waited until the present
day to spring h n stuff about enter
ing the ring. he would he our most
popular white hope. He is as big as a
mountain. and in addition to his size
is the greatest shot putter that the
world has ever gazed upon with wide
eyed admiration.
With Rose in anything like his old
condition it is almost certain that the
United States will win the shot event,
Every once in a while some great ath.
iete arises. In his single line of heav-

"SOME POOL SHARKS"
a s OF

Connie Mack's vans have a potent
factor missing. The yanigans have
been deserted. and they have been the
victims OF traitors. Uncle Sam Erwin,
the man who invented the term yani-
gans, and who has travelled as the inn
presario OF the youngsters for many
years. has fled to the regular camp.
Uncle Sam. who is so years old, has
got old Oslcr beaten to a frazzle when
it comes to this anesthetic business.
Instead of growing older he looks
more "chickenish" every year.
Uncle Sam has always been the
gu~ide-book and mentor Of the vans,
and his desertion this year savors Of
lese Connie.
Uncle Sam. however, will troop
along to San Antonio when the old
sters hike into this burg, and 1t Is ex-
pected that he will receive a new con-
tract from Connie. and sign again as
the manager of the youngsters.
