ALL-AROUND TALENTS STAMP INGRAM REAL /
Floor Season
Takes Bill S
Attention

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 15-Youns
Bill Ingram, not necessarily the
last Of the IngramS," IS he has
been termed, but the latest Of the
greatest athletic family In the his
tory Of the Navy, looms out as the
greatest all-around athlete Of 1895
at the Naval Academy.
Young Bill's performance on the
gridiron field Is recent history
and It Is not so generally known
that he Is an excellent basketball
guard and, probably, the best base.
ball player In the Naval Academy.
Ingram Is one Of the three mid
Shipmen that now hold ms" in
three major sports. The others are
Frank Lynch, the big tackle, whose
other sports are basketball and
track, and Alan Mcfarland, whose
sports, as 1ngram'S, are football,
basketball and baseball.
Three Precede Ingram
Three great Navy athletes have
preceded Ingram as holders Of let
terS in these three sports. One was
Ira Mckee, the only man who has
won the Navy Athletic Association
sword for general excellence in
athletics, on two occasions. The
others are Tom Hamilton, head
football coach for the past three
years, and the great Buzz Berries.
Ingram, with two seasons Of
baseball and ba ketball and
another Of football ahead Of him,
has already won his place in this
notable company, and will go down
to tradition among the Navy'S ath-
letic great.
Ira Mckee, who started his
athletics as q plebe, this being
within the rules at the time, holds
the all-time record OF ten major
letters. Buzz Berries holds an
other record, that Of having won
"Nstars," given only for partici-
patton in victories over the Army,
on five occasions. Berries also
won nine 'N's," one for each sea-
son he participated in varsity
sports.
On Way to Fame
Ingram, who failed, on account
Of injuries, to get his IN" in foot
bail last year, can never equal the
record Of either Mckee or Berries
as to letters, but he is well on his
way towards q new figure in the
matter Of IN stars" He already
has two and will have, in the due
course Of things, five more
chances against the Army.
. Playing guard on the five as q
regular in his first season, In
gram has not indicated any special
excellence in the court game up
to this time. This fall the stand
ard Of his playing may be raised
just as it was in football.
While playing with the second
class team last summer, Ingram'S
baseball took q big. Jump ahead.
A brilliant outfielder and the
teams best hitter, Ingram devel-
oped as a pitcher during the sum-
mar and turned in one winning
game, the only one in which he
occupied the mound. He will be
tried out on the varsity next
spring.

they asserted, is certain to engulf the

Native officers led these troops, the
refugees said, but they were assertedly
under japanese control and had
Japanese military equipment.
They were reported equipped with
many carts, motor trucks, horses,
camels and armed motor vehicles

These vehicles choked the few road

Producers Asked To
File Work Sheets
Applications for Soils Conservation
Program Must Be In County
Agents Hands May 90

All producers interested in fill
ing work sheets in connection with
the soils conservation program
must have their work sheets on
file in the county agents office in
st. Cloud by Friday, May 29th. No
applications will be accepted after
that date. Because of the necessity
of having all the work move for
ward at a regular pace it will not
be possible to handle any new ap-
plications beyond that time. The
program was first offered to the
people at educational meetings
that were held beginning March
% and in view of the fact that two
months have elapsed since the
program was started, all producers
should have their minds made up
by this time as to whether or not
they wish to go in on the program.
A great deal of work remains to
be done in the county extension Of
flee at st. Cloud before the appli-
cations for grants on the soils pro-
gram will finally be signed. In the
meantime, all folks, who have gone
in on the program, can take care
of their requirements as far as the
sowing of grass crops are concern
ed and any other parts of the pro-
gram that will interest them as far
as the payment schedule goes.
