Bismarck and Mandan were tied
for the lead in the Capital City Track
and Field meet being held on Hughes
field this afternoon. A bitter wind
was hampering the work of the ath.
letes.
| Mandan was off to an excellent
start when McKendry and Collins
grabbed firsts in the go yard low
hurdles and the 100 yard dash. Bis.
marck got into the running when Big
Ted Meinhover heaved the shot
further than the rest OF the field.
Bismarck began creeping up on the
leaders when Meinhover again took
a first. this time in the discus while
Paris grabbed q third.
Thornton, Fessenden Star
Fcsscnden was forging up among
the leaders largely due to the fine
work Of Thornton who copped first
| in the half mile and second In tho
low hurdles. Kramer aided him BY
taking second in the shot.
Gloom settled over Bismarck root.
crs when TAFT failed to place in the
half-mile. The lank fellow has been
troubled with sore heel all week. and
yesterday he added q blister to his
troubles. Jacobson's failure to ret bet
ter than tie for third in the pole
vault was also disappointing to the
local contingent.
AS The Tribune went to press
Schwartz and jacobson had cinched
first in the high jump and were re-
ported to be trying to break the meet
record.
