Fargo; N. D., Aug. 9.-(R-
Three favorites and an outsider sur
vivcd the second and third rounds Of
match play Wednesday and will
clash today in semifinals of the 14th
annual tournament Of the North Da-
kota State Golf association.
The favorites, William A. White,
Jr., Of Fargo; Jimmy Barrett, Of
Devils Lake, and Bill Fowler Of Far
go, defending champion, were joined
in this select semifinal group by the
veteran r. T. Barnard Of Fargo.
Barnard sprang the biggest sur
prise Of the tournament when he
eliminated Pal Cook, star young
player from Bismarck, after an ex-
ira hole Of play. This was the big
upset of the tournament, but it was
up to White, the medalist and three
times champion of the Fargo Coun.
try club, to turn in the best brand Of
golf.
White eliminated Tom Hull OF
Fargo, Z to s, to play an over
whelming setback for the former
state champion who played Is holes
in the three strokes over par.
Barrett eliminated Moynthan Pag-
ett Of Grand Forks, 2 and l. Fow-
ler won from Pote, Z and l, when the
latter was unable to make his putter
work effectively. Pote was leading
at the completion Of the upper route,
one up, but after that he missed
many comparatively easy opportuni.
ties in semifinal play today. White
will meet Barrett while Barnard will
be arrayed against Fowler.

DIXIE EXPERTS
STUDY DISEASE
FREE POTATOES
Southern HOrticulturists Hope
to Use North Dakota
Seed Tubers

Harvey, N. d., Aug. 9.-P,-
Southern horticultural leaders and
potato experts who came into North
Dakota yesterday to study the
states progress toward production
Of disAase-free potatoes for seed
purposes, came in to Harvey today
to continue, their investigation, after
having visited in Leal and CARING
ton districts Wednesday.
Pleased at conditions found in the
Darlington district, where marked
progress was revealed by several
farmers who supervised potato
plants, the southerners turned their
attention today to Triumph potato
strains being developed in the Har-
vey region, and late today they will
60 to Minot and Burlington, N. D.,
to continue investigations Of that
strain Of potatoes.
The aim Of the leaders is to use
the disease-free potatoes for seed
purposes, with the expectation of
capturing large share Of the south
ern trade that demands that its seed
potatoes shall be perfect.
Dixie Potatoes Expensive
It costs the potato grower in the
southern states from 500 to $3.50 an
acre to grow potatoes, said K. p.
Bemis Of Chicago, in addressing q
group during an inspection at Leal.
The southern trade, Mr., Bemis said,
isn't squeamish about . handsome
royalty for the disease-fres pota-
toes"
The southern Investigators made
exhaustive studies Of the fields they
visited in the Leal district. They
went into four fields to find that
the disease has developed in plants
that were grown from certified seed,
supposedly 4ffording maximum pro-
lection against that contingency. The
appearance Of blackleg is attributed
70 the fact that the season has been
unusually wet.
The regular inspections Of fields,
made up to the end Of July, had
shown. no disease.

sonsl direction the big agricultural

under which arrangement approxi-
mately 10000 acres Of North Dakota

his very utmost to hold his own against his rival. But Kolehmain- en, with stubborn energy, gained decimeter after decimeter, and. just on the very winning post, flung himself before Bouin and in i, this manner won the most inter- esting, the severest and finest long distance race that has prob ably ever been witnessed Koleh- mainen's margin in time was only one-tenth of second.
 Another Frenchman, Josef Guil- lemot, broke the Finnish streak in 1920 by beating Nurmi, then only 19 years old, in the 5,O00meter Trace at Antwerp and handing Paavo his only Olympic setback. Nurmi got revenge on Guillemot in the 10,000-meter race. In 1924, Paavo broke the Olympic record in the 5000 but stayed out of the 10000 meter event, which went to Willie Ritola in record-smashing fashion
 Second place is the best an American has ever gained in either of these races. Lewis Te- wanima, the Indian, was runner up to Kolehmainen in the 10000 meter race in 1912. In the 5000 meters the same year George Bon hag was fourth and Tel Berna

By ALAN J. GOULD

Associated Press Sports Editor)
 NEW YORK, May 10-When it comes to the distance running features of the Olympic program there isn't much to it beyond a tale of Finnish triumph.
 Since 1912, when this little Scandinavian nation first made a big dent in the Olympic surface, it has been little short of a pro- cession for Finland's distance running aces.
 Kolehmainen, Nurmi and Ritola >are the Big Three so far as the history of the 5000 and 10000 meter races is concerned. Nurmi and Ritola will be back again this year, seeking fresh laurels at Am sterdam, and there doesn't seem any prospect of heading off either of these stars.
 Certainly the United States isn't likely to upset the parade of the Films although the development of such youthful stars as Leo Ter mond of Boston, Dave Abbott oi Illinois and Harold Keith of Okla homa may give America th3 chance to score a few points.
 France alone has given the Films a real tussle in either of these long distance features since they first were put on the pro- gram. flames Kolehmainen, first of the great Finnish champions, scored double" in 1912 but he had a hair-raising duel with Jean Bouin of France before winning the 5,000-meter race on the Stock holm track.
 From all accounts that 5000 meter final 16 years ago was one of the greatest distance races ever run. Bouin, who has a stadium named after him in Paris now, set the pace most of the way and fought off Kolehmainen's chal- lenges right down to the stretch,
 With only 20 meters left" runs the official story, "the Finlander pressed up abreast of Bouin, who now, possibly involuntarily be- cause of the unheard-of strain of the race. pressed Kolehmainen out to the right hand side of the track while, at the same time, he did

fifth. Since then the only Ameri- can point winner in either event was Johnny Romig. the former Penn State runner, who was fourth to Nurmi in the 5000 four years ago. Not single Yankee placed in either race in 1920.
 The outlook is brighter but not sensational this year. Lermond, a rugged youngster, should give good account of himself at 5000 meters. In the longer race, his Boston club-mate, Robert Dal. rymple is nominated as our best bet by Jack Ryder, his coach. Joie Ray has his heart set now on do- ing the marathon but if his feet cannot stand that route Joie may turn to either the 5000 or 10000 with a good chance of doing some thing. Among the college men, Bill Cox of Penn State and Dave Abbott of Illinois, are good pros- poets at 5000 meters.
