Picked to Annex Charity Contest
Despite Success of Midwest
in Previous Years.

DALLAS, Tex, December 3d.
Despite the fact the Midwest has been
victorious in two previous Dixie classics
the forces of Coach Bob zuppke likely
will be short enders in their charity
fray against the Southwest All-Stars
here New Year day.
The squad being drilled by the vet
eran Illinois mentor appears fully as
powerful as that which won for Coach
Jimmy Phelan a year ago and is being
equipped with what Zuppke termed a
Grange offenSe," but the joker lies in
the strength of its opposition. The
Southwest eleven promises to be fully
so per cent stronger than that which
two engagements.
The arrival last night by airplane of
five outstanding Southwest stars who
participated in the East-West tilt at
San Francisco three days ago rounded
out the "home" squad and caused
sentiment to veer sharply to their side
The five who made the flight from
Los Angeles yesterday to workout with
the Southwest team for the first time
today were Jake Wilson, Bochey Koch
and Louis Paradeaux of Baylor, Louie
Long of Southern Methodist, and Noble
Atkins of Texas Christian. Coach Jen-
nings intends to start Wilson at quar-
terback, Atkins at Center, and Koch as
one of the guards The trio, especially
Koch, did yoeman service for the West
in Saturdays game.
Others whom Jennings indicated
would start Thursday for the Southwest

While Zuppke stands by his avowed
intention of wearing down his oppo-
nents with running offense built about
Jensvold of Iowa, Kissell of Purdue, and
Molloy of Loyola, the Midwestern eleven
INDUCED in lot of plain and fancy

BIG TEN BASKETERS
IN "OUTSIDE" GAMES
Most of Teams Playing at Home,
but Purdue Coming East to
Meet Pitt, Temple.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, December 30-Brigham
Young Universitys transforming basket
ball squad will play its fifth Midwestern
engagement tonight meeting Chicago's
undefeated five at Bartlett Gymnasium.
The Utah team has won two and
dropped two games on its journey
through the section, but has displayed
plenty of scoring ability and is expected
to give the Maroons real testing.
Wisconsin fans have not been satisfied
with the class of competition offered
by the Badgers two most recent oppo-
nentS-Pennsylvania and Missouri-but
may expect DR.. Meanwell's squad to get
a good workout tonight against Mar
quette at Milwaukee.
The Purdue squad left Lafayette, Ind,
yesterday to flaunt its Big Ten cham
pionShip banner in the East against
Pittsburgh and Temple. Indiana today
headed in the same direction, hoping to
avenge defeats administered by Pitts
burgh and Pennsylvania last season.
Northwestern will face Alabama to-
morrow night and Notre Dame Satur-
day with a patched-up defense. Bob
Lockhart, regular guard from Martins
vile, Ind, yesterday wrenched a knee
injured in the Carleton game two weeks
ago, and probably will be out Of the
lineup for several weeks.

Maj. Frank Cavanaugh, who was

ITS the Army game Of 1924. We
are sitting around in the dressing
room about 10 minutes before the
game when the door opens and that
black, shaggy head comes in the
door. (Rockne is bald as billiard
ball)
"'Army tells me that they are
going to kick you off the field, and
then kick you off the schedule
Rockne says. I don't believe they
can do it.
"'Walsh (brusquely), I'm going to
put you in at center. and want 10

foot ball. You didn't do so good IN
that Wisconsin game. Collins -
And so on through the rest OF the
seven Mules and Stuhldreher, Don
Miller and Layden of the backfield.
To each one Rockne addressed some
cauStic comment on their previous
play and their duties that day.
Miller was to do some blocking in
there today, we've got to shake
Crowley loose"
"Then he turned to me-" said Jim,
and said: Jimmy, will you go in at

There might have been more to
Crowley's story. but If there was he
couldn't have told it. There was too
much noise.

n YEW YORK, December 80 Up.
Gus WEIGH Of the Univer-
sity of Virginia, all-America
Carlisle quarterback of the
days of Pop" Warner and Jim
Thorpe, was en- route back to the
Old Dominion today with the famous
brown derby"
Gus won the derby in honest verbal
combat with the other wits of the
American Foot Ball Coaches Asso-
citation at their annual banquet,
which ended in the early morning
hours with the compe titive story
The winning story was this:
Carlisle was playing Cornell and it
was tough game. Thorpe scored
touchdown against the big Red team
and the Indians went to defensive
play. There was one big guard, 22O
pounds, who was lying down on the
job. Ali Gus urging couldn't get
him TO wake up and stop the Cornell
plays. Finally it was CornellS ball
on Carlisle's l0-yard line, goal to go.
II was thinkin' hard" said Gus,
waving an unlighted cigar, and l
had an idea. / was playin' safety,
but I called Jim back and went up
to the line. Then 1 went over to the
referee and told him, IF you see
me slug somebody it won't be Cor
nell man, it will be one of these In
dams
The play came through this big
guard. ran up and there was big
pile-up with this guard at the bot
tom and his face showing on one
side. reached down and with my
hand flat-like this-I slapped him.
THE pile heaved and up he came,
a nice rosy mark on his cheek. He
rushed over and said to the refefee,
Did you see that? Cornell slugged
me-
THE referee laughed and said,
That's ali right, I'll get them the
next time
ron the next play this big bird
went through and nailed them for
3-yard loss. On the next play he got
a Cornell back for 2-yard loss. On
the next play he nailed rim 3 yards
behind the line"
He and Thorpe worked on the
guard for three years with those tao
tics, Gus said, and won a lot Of
games. In a game with Pennsylvania
Thorpe even bit the big guard in the
side TO make him play.

INCREASE IN FARMS
in STATE IS 2,0S0
Census Figures Show This Gain
Since 1925; Some coun-
ties Return Decrease

Since 1925 North Dakota has gained
1850 farms, making the total number
Of farms in the state greater than at
any time in history, states Rex E. VIII
lard, farm economist at the agricul-
tural college, who has compiled this
information from the 1890 United
States census. The total number of
farms In 1880 is 17,O5O.
As would be expected, not all coun-
ties In the state gained In the num-
Der Of farms. Eastern and southern
counties decreased in number of
farms. In the % counties that made
gains from 1929 to 1890 there was a
total increase Of 2,055 farms, while rs
counties lost a total Of 1895 farms.
Because of a loss of Ito farms from
1920 to 1925, the total gain for the
state from 1920 to 1880 is 800 farms.
1T is believed that In the counties
showing a loss of farms there Is no
material reduction in the total farmed
acreage, but rather that the smaller
number OF farms are larger in SIZE"
MIR. Willard Says. TN the counties
where increases were made, it Is GER
tain that in most of them the average
farm size has become smaller, thus
making room for more FARMS"
In spite Of the adverse price stu
alton that has generally prevailed for
farm products from 1920 to 1880, Ger
tain counties have steadily increased
In number of farms during the entire
period. Such counties are Walsh.
Ramsey, Nelson, Trail, Cass. Barnes,
Richland, Dickey, Logan, Mcintosh,
and Sioux.
Ward county, with 1857, has the
most farms of any county, while
Billings. being chiefly ranches, has
the least, with 531 farms.

WHEATTRIALSS SHOW
IT GOOD DAIRY FEED
Agricultural College Finds Grain
Almost Equal to Barley
or Bran Ration

Feeding trials, conducted the past
| year with durum wheat by the dairy
department at North Dakota Agricul-
tural college show that when the price
warrants wheat can be used to ad-
vantage as a substitute for any Of the
farm-grown grains or for wheat bran
In the dairy cows ration. For good
results any grain should be mixed with
at least one other grain, according to
Prof. ]. r. Dice, head Of the dairy de-
partment, and this is especially true
of wheat when 1t Is used In the ration
for milk cows.
I'VE first ran some trials to deter
mine whether the ground wheat was
palatable and found that the cows
would eat 1t readily and did well on it
for brief periods when ground wheat
made up q third, q half, or two.thirds
Of the grain ration" Professor Dice
said.
with a basal ration Of ground oats,
ground corn, bran, alfalfa hay and
corn silage we compared groun0 wheat
to barley in the first trial. Using six
cow and reversing them on the two
rations, we found that during the ten
day periods the COWS were ON the
wheat ration they averaged to pro-
duce 1,094.8 pounds Of milk and 1877
pounds of butterfat. On the barley
ration they averaged to produce 1,106.5
pounds Of milk and 1914 pounds Of fat.
I'm the second trial, using a basal
ration of ground oats, ground barley,
corn silage, and equal parts of alfalfa
hay and prairie hay, we found that
during the ten-day periods when the
COWS were on the wheat ration they
averaged to produce 1856 pounds Of
milk and 81 pounds Of butterfat, while
on the bran ration they averaged to
produce 929 pounds Of milk and 500
pounds Of fat"
