(Chuck Rathe)

Tracksters of eleven schools
will assemble next Saturday at
the local Fair Grounds for the
district track meet. Scheduling
of the meet has been arranged
for 1880 o'clock and the pole
vault Is to be the first event.
Each school Is to have an en-
try In each event. All track
events are to be run off except
the hurdles. So the Lads will
be greasing joints with fish
worm oil from now until Sat
urday.
There's to be a peachy trophy
given by the district for the school
attaining the highest total points.
A handsome certificate will become
the property of the school that
wins the half mile relay. Ribbons
will be given as individual awards.
Those boys are keeping the old
weather eye out for that trophy.
Sank Centres trophy case hasn't
needed an enlargement for some
time. Well, fellas who place first in
this session will be eligible for
competition with regional honors
at Moorhead the week following.
Those firsts will meet with the
States finest at the U field house
on June 9Th in a final roundup to
determine the "tops" of the track
men.
A preliminary meet was run
off last Saturday In q three way
meet with Alex, Osakis and
Sank Centre In competition.
Sank Centre rated high with
six firsts. Judy Dubois unlimb-
ers long leg and loosely

field easily last Saturday. They
stopped him at 5 feet 8. De-

the well-known timber oil on
his legs Saturday for he placed
two of the local firsts in the
100 and eco. Tank, IL he has

for he tossed the discus O dis
lance of 91.2 feet which Is q
long ways as the snake crawls.
Arvig loosened up a long arm
and sent the javelin hurting
through the air to cop a first.
And the local lads had what IL
takes to get a first in the half
mile relay. Then there were
some of the boys who took sec
Onds and thirds who may sp0n-
sOr some surprises next Satur-
day. Like to see va on hand!
Harvey is bemoaning the fact
now that the hurdles haven't been
included in the last two years. He
has a man in Arvig who could be
made into just dandy hurdler. He
has the leg power and he has the
knack and lseness Of limb that
makes for ease. When a man that
hurdles a five foot cross bar on
the high jump instead of giving
his body that more horizontal an
gle and the body roll, imagine what
he could do on the regular hur-
dies. Yes, imagine what he could
do on the high jump If he could
give his body that extra roll.
Spring shyly is making her
debut. Much too modestly for

Shippers Get Comment
For Shipment To East
Hog Market

A shipment of ISL Sheridan
county hogs, consigned from Med
icine Lake, struck the highest mar
ket of the winter in Chicago and
the highest December market in
ten years.
A top of 5000 was paid for 90
of the hogs averaging in various
lots from 213 to 1853 pounds.
Sows in the consignment were of
good quality, weighing from $50 to
440 lbs. and selling at 1866 and
exceptionally high price.
Lighter hogs in the shipment
weighed from IT'S to 203 lbs. and
sold from 1915 to $1.00. One of the
highest marks was made on 113 lb.
Sheridan county pigs when they
sold at So. A stag weighing 410
lbs. topped that class at $500.

probably a more profitable outlet
in Chicago, especially for the weight
