National interscholastic records
for the high and low hurdles will
be recommended for Leroy Kirk
patrick, Central Unions star hurd-
Ter, as a result of his performance
at the Chaffee track meet on Sat
urday, Coach Armstrong stated to-
day.
Officials at the Chaffee meet
have agreed to recommend that
both records be awarded to Kirk
patrick.
The local star negotiated the high
hurdles in las seconds. He did not
knock down any hurdles and will
be granted a new Chaffee record
without any question, officials of
the meet said. They also agreed to
try to obtain the national record for
him. This is held by Phil Cope, now
registered at use. who set mark
of lat seconds last year.
Imperial Valley press., 1934-04-16
KIRKPATRICK MAY BE AWARDED
TWO new MARKS FOR HURDLES

In the low hurdles Kirkpatrick
equaled the national mark of 23.5
seconds. This is not as fast as his
time of 23.4 seconds at Huntington
Beach a few weeks ago, but the lat
ter mark is not likely to be allowed
as record due to q favorable wind
which was blowing. He is assured a
new Chaffee record for this event,
however.
Kirkpatrick's high hurdle time is
the fastest made in any COMPETE
ton this year, Armstrong points out,
while the low hurdle time is as good
as any college time yet recorded this
season.
Joe Bruner took second place in
the S80-yard run and Joe Herman
DEE finished third in the mile. He
was beaten by two of the best mil
ers in Southern California high
schools.

MEDICA NEW
WATER STAR
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent


CHICAGO, April 16.-America's
answer to Japan'S bid for world
wide swimming supremacy is Jack
Medica, curly-haired q OF Wash
ington sophomore.
From an alternate on the United
States Olympic team two years ago,
Medica has developed into the
greatest swimmer in this country
from 220 yards to one mile.
In less than a year he has
smashed six worlds and five Am
erican records in addition to many
intercollegiate and meet records.
During the four nights of the wo-
mems national indoor swimming
championships which closed Satur-
day night, Medica attempted to
break nine records and that's just
how many toppled before his pow
erful stroking.
Norman Ross. former Olympic
champion, who once held 70 records,
believes Medica has a chance to
annex every record on the books
from 200 yards to one mile.
"Medicas performance in break
ing nine records in four nights is as
great as anything have ever seen
in swimming" commented Ross.
"He,s not far from the world s
greatest swimmer, and he hasn't
reached his peak yet.
Like all great swimmers of the
past, he has a style that the alleged
experts term unorthodox. That's
what they said about me ano
Johnny Weissmuller, but as soon as
We had broken all the records in
the book they recognized our indi-
yidual styles as orthodox. The same
thing will happen as soon as Me-
dica breaks a few more records

KL|NDW0RTH highly
QUALIFIED FOR POST
Candidate TO Commissioner Of
Agriculture Has Excel
lent Background

Exceptionally qualified for the Of
flee to which he has been nominated
is Otto w. Klindworth, Wells county
farmer, the Democratic candidate for
commissioner of agriculture and la
Dor.
Born on his fathers homestead sew
en- miles northeast of Fessenden on
Oct 20, 1899, Mr.. Klindworth has
made it his residence throughout his
IS years.
On his native soil, Mr.. Klindworth
has developed and raised seed crops
which year after year have ranked as
among the finest In the nation. He
has gained nationwide fame as
grower Of pure seed, seed that has
consistently ranked one, two, three
at International Seed and Grain show
in Chicago.
Mr.. Klindworth is the son Of Peter
and Katie Kemmer Klindworth, ma
tives Of Germany who settled at Shell
don in Cass county in 1886. Two
years later they drove over the prair-
les to Wells county behind sran
of oxen to take up homestead. They
were among Wells county's first set
tiers.
Growing to manhood on his fathers
farm. Mr.. Klindworth attended the
public schools at Fessenden, gradual
ing from Fessenden high school. In
tent on obtaining higher education,
he went to Fargo In 1914 where he
entered Aakers Business college. From
there he matriculated at the North
Dakota Agricultural college. the idea
already having come to him that there
was tremendous field for an alnbi-
tious and enterprising farmer who
would strive to improve grain seeds.
Accepts Faculty Post
Shortly before he was scheduled
to graduate from the A. G. In 1918, he
was pressed into service, the war hav-
ing created a dearth of properly train-
ed faculty members. He began teach
ing men and women no older than
himself in the schools of agricultural
and mechanical engineering.
With commencement Of the school
year of l918-l919, Mr.. Klindworth re-
turned to obtain the degree which he
had missed. Again he found his
services as a teacher in demand. Again
he took position on the faculty. For
the next two years, he continued to
teach the various branches Of en-
cheering as they apply to farming.
That he never has obtained his
degree, Mr.. Klindworth lays to the
fact that he married Miss Ella Belle
Pellet Of Hutchinson, Mimi, Nov. 6.
1921. He declares he has been too
busy since then making living for
/; his family to return to finish the few
months work separating him from q
college degree. Mrs. Klindworth, prior
to her marriage, taught school at
Kenmare, Donnybrook. Harvey, and
Fessenden. The Klindworths are the
parents Of two children. Gertrude 8,
and Maxine IL.
When Mr.. Klindworth returned to
Fessenden In 1920. he purchased the
family homestead from his father. He
Immediately set about developing
pure seed srains, working with seeds
developed at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college and by other pure
seed farmers throughout the state.
Seeds Become Famous
So successful was he in the next
few years that his seeds became fam

BY exchanging wheat for flour for
his own family's use, the farmer
saves the processing tax Of about

Lund said the week reported was
the largest exchange week In the his

HIGHER PRICES FOR
farm PRODUCE seen
Bureau Lists Seven Probable
tiles Of Fall Agricultural
Situation

Washington, Oct. 17.-(P)-Higher
prices for most farm products and in
creased activity In many industries
during the fall months were predicted
Wednesday by the bureau Of agricul-
tural economics in its October price
situation report.
An increase in the general level Of
wholesale prices during the past year
from 104 per cent to the 191O-l9l4 av-
erage to about 112 per cent was at
tributed to advances in prices Of farm
products and foods since prices OF
non-agricultural products remained
practically unchanged.
The bureau analysed farm price
probabilities for the fall as follows:
I. Wheat prospects point toward
some further recovery" rather than
a decline. depending on the condition
Of the southern hemisphere crop and
the amount Of grain fed to poultry
and livestock In this country.
2. Corn prices may be expected
to remain at relatively high levels
throughout the coming year" with the
present shortage of grain indicating
somewhat higher prices by December
or January.
3. Potato prices are likely to re.
main at or near the present low levels
during the 1934-35 season.
5. 1.-THE seasonal decline in hog
prices now In progress is likely to be
less than usual and of shorter dura-
ton" due to fewer hogs and short feed
supplies.
s. Prices Of better grades Of cattle
ARE expected to be fairly we'll main
tanned" during the coming two months
although declines are forecast In thu
lower grades II the government ceases
to purchase cattle and adverse wealth
er sets In.
Z. Prices Of hogs and chickens are
expected to 60 higher during the next
three or four months. responding to
the light supply situation.

meteorologists connected with the

The warnings" Of the Weather

they are sent to special addresses.
The airways service Of the Weather
Bureau has expanded rapidly since
the passage Of the Air Commerce Act
Of 1926, and now covers approxi-
mately $4,000 miles Of Federal air

transmitted chiefly by teletype and
radio operated by the Department Of
Commerce. The radio IS also used to
transmit weather information to air.

vided with up-to-the minute weather
reports and forecasts before each
flight and with supplementary re-
ports and forecasts at frequent inter-
walls during the flight.

thunder, the lightning was red and
there was no thunder-only q small,

that the lightning at the instant Of

Washington, D. c., Oct. l7.-Mark
wain's witticism that while every.
body talks about the weather, no.
body does anything about it, ceased
