BUCKEYE FLYER
 GETS IN SHAPE
 FOR BIC MEETS
By LATHROP MACK "A. P. Sports Writer)

! COLUMBUS, Ohlc, Jan. 30--
 George Simpson, the Ohio State Flyer and world record holder in the loo yard dash, is preparing to defend his sprinting honors but he's determined not to start it in the Texas meets in March.
 Simpsons right leg, in which he sprained a tendon while training at Denver for the national A. A. U. meet last July, is well again, he says, and gives him no trouble. He has not run race since last June when he did 92-5 seconds, a new world record for the hundred" in the national collegiate meet at Chi cago. He had not even pulled on spike shoes until this month when he started easy workouts to test his leg.
 The national collegiate cham pion at both 100 and 220 yards is looking forward to Ohio States dual meets indoors with Illinois and h.
 diana, the annual quadrangular
 meet with Northwestern, Chicago and Wisconsin, the Western Con- ference indoor meet at Minneapo- lis March ' and and the Illinois relays at Champaign March IS. However, he does not expect to run any hundreds" in the Texas and Rice relays in the southwest late in March-in fact, not until Ohio's outdoor season opens at home next April.
 "A runner who never practices under favorable outdoor conditions prior to the Texas meets has small chance with Southern boys who have been outdoors for weeks by the end of March," Simpson says. If the team goes to Texas I'll probably run only in the relays and longer dashes.'

TRUCK SKIDS ON
 STREET AND HITS
 ATOP OF TROLLER

An empty Fageol truck driven py Contractor G. E. Krause, skidded on the icy street at the turn in Willoughby Avenue in front of the Totem Grocery, crashed through the railing and landed on top of a trolling boat.
 Noone witnessed the accident t. which occurred shortly after noon today, but it is thought that the truck skidded while making the turn. Several people heard the crash when the truck struck the railing and dropped over atop the gasboat moored beside the street. The tide was flooding and the beat was partially afloat. MT. Krause, unhurt, climbed back to the street.
 At l o'clock the engine of the truck was resting on the partly submerged boat, the rear end of the truck resting on a street plank. The engine was under water but otherwise there was no apparent injury to the car.
 The trolling boat, Bethcre, is owned by Jacob Lewis, an Indian living near the scene of the acci- dent. The cabin of the boat was badly damaged but the full extent of the damage to other parts is not known.
