old in Stearns county.
The report Of the county agent
followed the secretary's report Elk
tension work has been carried on
in the county only since March 10
so the agents report does not re-

work with emergency projects
such as seed loans, Red Cross Re
lief and the grasshopper control
campaign occupied more than half
of the agents time. During the
eight months period 551 farms and
SO homes were visited by the agent.
In the same period there were
nearly 1900 office calls, 1907 person
al letters were written in response

people of the county. In the same
time 164 news articles pertaining
to extension work were written
and used by various publications.
In addition 108 circular letters
were written with a total circula-
tion of 1920. Later in the year the
home project was organized with n
groups of women having a total
enrolment of 900. 304 seed loans
were made out in addition to 40 ap-
plications recently for financing
thru the r. A. c. G. of Mpls.

FLOOR CLASSIC
At BLUEF|ELD

MORGANTOWN, w. Va, May
5.-The annual basketball game
between Washington and Lee Uni
versity and West Virginia Univer-
sity, will be played next winter
at Bluefield, H. A. Stansbury,
director of athletics at West Vir-
ginia, announced today.
Last season the contest was
played at Beckley before a near
capacity crowd and prior to that
had been staged in Huntington
and Charleston for a number of
years. The game is considered
one of the foremost yearly court
classics of southern West Vir-
ginia.
The Mountaineer basketball
team has appeared twice in previ-
GUS years on Bluefield floors,
both times against V. P. I. In
1928 and again in 1929, the Stads-
void coached quint met and de-
feated the Old Dominion team
and since then the Mercer county
city has been anxious to have
West Virginia return. Washing
ton and Lee will be a popular
choice for an opponent.
The Mountaineer- General bas-
ketball feud was already well de-
veloped in 1916 when West Vir.
ginia first went South to play
the game and the annual con-
tests during the last decade have
heightened interest.
Alumni of both washington and
Lee and of West Virginia are
numerous in the Bluefield area.

FERRELL AIMS

That Cleveland ace, Wesley Fer

is Ferrell's secret ambition to win
at least 80 games this season.
With four to his credit, he is hap
pier than he was at this time last
season.
Ferrell is eager to work often
this year. In fact, he Is more
than willing to hurl out of turn,
as he did recently at st. Louis,
when he rang up his fourth vic.
tory of the season. The Cleveland
ace asked permission to go to the
hill to prove that his arm was not
weak, as it appeared against the
Tigers on Saturday, when they hit
him pretty freely.
While Ferrell was not right on
Saturday he was in great shape
against the Browns. He said his
arm has given him no trouble this
year.

Mickey Costello, the Alexan-

sports follower who must have
an idol.
Mickey's weakness is Robert
Goodwin. Mick thinks Robert
coul1 take Max Schmeling with
both hands tied behind his
back, and whenever Robert is
booked to appear in the nearby
citadel, Mick appoints himself
as host, bodyguard, valet and
general factotum.
Last Monday, Mickey even
went so far as to build a pri.
vate dressing room at Portner's
Arena for Robert, equipping it
with a rubbing table, mattress,
pillow and sheets from home.
Such equipment as a new
bleached sponge and initiated

Godwin's use, and a couple Of

completed the hospitality.

director of the George Wash

called upon Representative Will

it's a good trick if it can be
pulled. Pickens has already
given washington one football
masterpiece, the Alabama Alum

To GAIN
REVENGE FOR

By GARRETT WATERS

BY GAhhE1I WAlEhS
The Griffs may be idling as
far as a contest is concerned to-
day, but thoughts of defeating
the Chicago White Sox. are be-
ing carried around "just in case
The Sox, who open a three
game series here tomorrow, were
downright poison to Manager
Johnson's men last year, that's
why.
That is, they were obstacles
whenever the Griffs faced the
opportunity of gaining ground.
Two instances of last year come
to mind to bring this out.
Happen Out West
Each bobbed into the picture
when Manager Johnson's men
visited Chicago on two different
trips West. On the first occa-
sion "Our Griffmen" had just
finished a series with the Detroit
Tigers, which saw them advance
within half game of the
league-leading Philadelphia AS.
The second occasion or instance
was when the Griffs needed a
couple of victories to keep ahead
of the New York Yankees for
second place.
The Sox used little discretion
in a brief review of the games.
During the first mentioned set
they upset the Griffs three out
of four-knocking them terribly
off their stride-while in the
second set of contests three more
triumphS were registered, much
to the discomfort not to mention
inconvenience of the Griffmen.
OF course, it is hoped that the
now managed FonSeca team will
not halt the current winning
streak of the Griffs at this time.
Past performances reveal that
this will not happen. as the Sox
have never been so fortunate
when engaging Manager John
sons men at Griffith Stadium.
All Of their successes have come
when they were at Chicago in
their own bailiwick.
Many New Faces
Many new faces will be seen
with the Sox when they take the
field. In fact, only two perform
erS besides Manager Lou FonSeca
are with the team from last year.
They are Lu Blue, veteran first
baseman, and Bob Fothergill, out
fielder.
Recent trades have changed
the Sox. New players include
Charlie Berry a Jack Roth
rock, formerly of the Boston Red
Sox; Ralph Kress, from the st.
Louis Browns, and Ray Seeds
and Johnny Hodapp, from the
Cleveland Indians.
Jackie Hayes and Sam Jones
are also with the club, having
been former Griff players traded
to the Sox last winter for Carl
Reynolds and Johnnie Kerr.
The Griffs, in full swing in
view of their recent successes
over the AS and Yanks, will be
out to take three in a row from
the Sox in keeping with their
stride. Let's hope nothing will
hinder their efforts.

VITAL CLASH
SLATED ON
SATURDAY
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

The Maryland University la
crosse team, driving onward to
a national championship and
Olympic representation, reaches
its first steep grade Saturday
afternoon when the powerful st.
Johns College of Annapolis stick
men are entertained in the Byrd
Stadium with play beginning at
p. m.
st. Johns College holds the
national intercollegiate champion
ship and yearns to retain its ma
tional honors and also represent
this nation in the lacrosse exhi-
bitions in conjunction with the
Olympic Games this summer in
Los Angeles.
The lacrosse match will be the
feature of the annual spring
field day at Maryland, which,
owing to the hard times, lacks
the varied events of other former
years. The only other attrac-
tions listed this year are the
interscholastic field and track
meet and the dual meet with
Johns Hopkins.
40 Schools In Meet
The schoolboy meet, which has
attracted entries from 40 schools
in the District, Virginia, Mary
land, New Jersey and Delaware
will be run concurrently with the
varsity races. The first event
will be started at p. m.

SCARED after the lacrosse tilt for
st. Johns and Maryland have
each collected five victories this
season without being extended
in any.
st. Johns is not only the
higher scoring combination Of the
two but is also low scorer. The
JohnnieS have amassed Sc points
while limiting the opposition to
two tallies. Maryland has rolled
up 48 points as against 4 points
for the rivals.

The Old Liners have turned

st. Johns was hard hit by
graduation last year. losing seven
stars, including Bobby Pool, its
scoring ace, and Bob MacCartee,
local boy with the team. How
ever, Coach 'Dinty" Moore,
former Hopkins star, has plugged
the gaps with strong replace
mentS.
Maryland WelI-Scouted
st. Johns has secuted Maryland
in every game this year while
the Old Liners have been able to
detail undercover men to but one
st. Johns contest. st. Johns
will present a heavier team than
the Old Liners but the latter
will offset this disadvantage by
speed on the offense and de.
tense. Speaking Of his Maryland
team, Coach Jack Faber says:
1--WE a rugged bunch this
year and well make st. Johns,
Hopkins and Navy remember
they've been in a game. I won't
say that we will beat these
three teams, however. So far,
my players have escaped severe
injuries but the injury jinx
may strike us a telling blow in

KEEN CAME DUE
TW|XT ND. j.
AND DUKE

One of the keenest college base
ball games in this section is eX-
pected to be waged this after
noon, when Duke University and
Maryland come to grips in the
Byrd Stadium at 3:45 p. m. The
Blue Devils hold previous vic
tory over the Old Liners, gained
in the early part of the season.
Since then the MarylanderS
have struck their stride and the
proteges of Coach Burton Shipley
will endeavor to even the score.
The Old-Liners dropped their first
four contests chiefly because Of
not being conditioned due to
the unfavorable weather during
the training period.
Stepping Along Fast
The Old-Liners, now whirling
along at a dizzy speed, have cap
tured their last five engagements.
Duke is coached by Jack
Coombs, former AS pitcher, and
boasts one of the best diamond
mines in the Southern Confer
ence. Young Jack CoombS, a
nephew of the veteran coach, and
capable finger, will start for the
Blue Devils.
G. w. Netmen Active
Coach Shipley will probably
intimate Steve Physioc or Ray
Davidson for mound duty.
The only other local college
sports attraction today is the
tennis engagement between DuAe
and George Washington on the
Columbia Country Club courts,
starting at 1870 p. m. The Mary
land University netmen are to
