Enders Wins
Martin Enders won the discus

and the remainder of Fargo's points
were accumulated in second, third
and fourths by Lloyd Gregory, Carl
Miller, Wallie Lindgren and Joe
Olson. Wallace Green's victory in
the quarter mile must be considered
phenomenal as Green is only a H.
year-old sophomore at Bismarck
high school. He is son Of James
A. Green, a Haskell Indian football
PLAYER of 1908 and 1909, and GER
tainly proved to the many fans in
today that he inherited
most Of his parents athletic powers.
Green was pushed hard all the
way by Airheart, but he seemed to
have plenty left at the finish. Elk
perience and coaching should de-
velop him considerably before his
prep days are completed.
