 IN PRIMARIES IN EAST

WASHINGTON lP) -- To all appearances the voting in Ohio. Pennsylvania and Massachusetts Primaries yesterday strengthened the hands of Hoover and Smith as the coutenders for rthe Republican and Democratic Presidential nomi- nations.
 Hoover, in the taes of birter op- position captured q raicrHy 0f fifty-one delegates from Ohio His managers claim that he will ihave the support at Kansas City of more than score of the Massa- chussetts delegation of thirty Eane. and they hope. on the showdown, to land seventy-nine uninstructed delegates from Pennsylvania.
 From the Smith camp came the prediction that Smith would have the Massachusetts delegation with thirty-six votes and have the sup port of all but few of Pennsyl- yania's delegate votes, and receive the votes of at least forty of the forty-eight delegates from Ohio.

NO INJURIES IN GAME
(Special to The Tribune)


Linton, N. D., Oct. 27.-Romping
over the hard-trying Linton squad
63 to 0, the fighting Braves Of Man
dan yesterday hung up their third
win of the season.
The Linton squad didn't have q
chance. The team members were
all light and green, with all expert
enced men from the last year outfit
lost through graduation.
Only three times during the game
did the Linton lads get the ball
started toward the Mandan goal line,
and on those occasions they were
promptly thrown over BY their heav-
Ter opponents. On all the other tries
they were thrown for loss.
Although Mentor Mcmahon OF the
Braves put all his green youngsters
into the game, his squad romped
over the Linton line with regularity.
They galloped around the ends at
will and took the ball down the line
by passes at their leisure:
Undiscouraged by the huge score
piling up before them. the Linton
bows tried courageously to get the
bail, but to no avail. Besides being
a faster, more experienced and bet
ter trained outfit, the Mandan out
fit could use their weight at any
time to throw the Linton men out
of the running.
Two Of the Mandan regulars were
out of the game-Wagner, center,
with a hurt shoulder received in
practice tits, and Vosika, who was
injured in the Dickinson game q
week ago. Vosika has not been on
the field for the last week, and
Coach Mcmahon is not sure when
he will allow the lad to get back in
the game.

Charlesworth, Yale's giant center,
and Hall are to face each other for

RATZLAFF DRAWS BLOOD

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 27.-(F-
Ny Sullivan, welterweight Of St.
Paul, today held . shade newspaper
decision over Herman Ratxlaff, OF
Minot,s as a result of their ten
round bout here last night, but he
had to hustle in the last few rounds
20 win.
Ratzlaff started with q rush and
had Sullivan on the 60 for the first
four rounds. The St. Paul lad found
his bearings in the fifth and carried
most Of the honors thereafter.
Ratzlaff substituted on short notice
for Floyd Hybert. who, the state
boxing commission ruled, was not
physically fit for the bout.
Ratzlaff started a stream Of
blood from his opponents mouth
early in the third round with
shower Of short rights and lefts to.
The head, and Sullivan spat blood
throughout the fight. The St. Paul
welterweight gained revenge Tor
this injury, however, when he closed
The North Dakotan's left eye in the
final round.
Seemingly puzzled by Ratzlaff's
southpaw attack, Sullivan was able
20 do little in the first four rounds
which went to Ratzlaff, who con-
.inually crowded in close and shot
punches from every angle.
Starting with a heavy attack in
The fifth, Sullivan showered the
North Dakotan with almost every va
riety Of punch. He pumped both
hands to Ratzlaff's body and then
switched his vicious attack to thu
head and for q time appeared to
have his opponent bewildered. He
wound up the round by knocking
the iron man partly through the
ropes.
From then on it was Sullivan's
fight. Although he fought only in
spurts his crushing right hand
rocked Ratzlaff repeatedly and he
also dealt out savage body punish
ment. Ratzlaff was soundly cheered
when he left the ring.
Morrie Green, University Of Min
nesota welterweight, beat Battling
Nelson, Waterloo, Iowa, in six
rounds. Nelson was q willing mix
er, but Green beat him to the punch
