PAGESK PRO (U A H) I-N HE R'A NBA MARCH 4, 1 935 Provo Payson Set For Runner-up Contest At Spanish Fork Thursday Alpine, Nebo Division Second Place Winners To Fight For Tournament Berth; Game Set At 8 O'clock annual battle between run- nerup teams in the Alpine and Nebo divisions for a chance to go to the state tournament, will' take place next Thursday night at 8 in the new Spanish Fork gymnasium, with Provo high school facing Payson High. Provo finished second to Lehi in the Alpine division and Payson came next- to Nephi in the Nebo division. Each dropped a pair of games in the respective leagues. Three teams are allowed to enter the state tournament from the two divsions, the two champions and the winner in the runner-up contest. Although the Bulldogs bold two victories over Payson in preseason games this year, the showing of the Provo team in its final game of the season last Friday, puts a new light on the game.

The Bulldogs played sluggishly against B. Y. High last Friday and were defeated 40 to 32. Payson, too, has its torubles. Blaine Halladay, center for the Lions, has been a sore throat, and Coach Stan Wilson declared last week that it is doubtful if Halladay can play.

If not, Wilson will probably use C. K. Young in the pivot position. Provo has one of the most powerful teams in the state when it is going at its best and if it returns to form admittedly should be given the nod over Payson. In the first pre-season game the two teams played, Provo won 43 to 26.

In the return game, however, the Bulldogs required an extra period to squeeze cut a 27 to 25 win. Coach Glen Simmons has some excellent" reserves for the Prove team who may come in for timely use in case some of the regulars remain in the doldrums. Some of the Payson reserves have also shown a lot of ability in pinch- hit roles. PROVO PAYSON Reed Colton Jim Jenseri Willis Daniels, Ralph Dalton Ashton Fielding C. K.

Fredheim Wins In Olympic Ski Trials Minnesota Ski Jumper Conquers Host Famed Ski Champions; Cross Winds Hamper Talented Men of Sidelights On Ski Meet By H. B.

MERRILL Despite the fact that Ecker Hill is almost as close to Provo as to Salt Lake City, few people from this present at the great Olympic meet Sunday when the best winged-footed men of the nation competed for high honors. Perhaps we are not thoroughly ski conscious yet. The weather was worse in Provo and Provo canyon than it at Ecker Hill yesterday. The drizzle which moistened the earth here ceased in the higher altitudes. The day, except for a rather cutting though ligat wind, was quite for the spectators.

When we arrived at the point from which the road takes off from the highway, both sides of the pavement for a quarter of a mile were lined with cars. Mud had compelled to We did likewise, walking the half mile or less to the foot of the great jump. When we learned that spectators from California and Denver had also come to the meet, we thought the hardship was not too great. When we saw the difficulty early cars had leaving the jump, we were glad we walked that half mile. The meet was worth seeing.

They say the wind kept the boys down to short jumps, but 187 feet to the onlooker is about as spectacular as longer jumps. Of course, we were disappointed not to have at least the great Alf Engen ride over the big jump. Did you ever see a man fly? Then go to Ecker sometime when narrow bits of board and tremendous speed are the only wings Few of the Olympic champions fell. Most of them rode like spirits through the air and over the snow. SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Mar.

4 (U.R)—Sverre Fredheim of the Norwegian American Athletic club of Minneapolis, today was assured a berth on the American ski jumping team that will compete in the 1936 Olympic games in Germany. Upsetting all predictions, Fredheim won top. honors in trials at Ecker hill Sunday afternoon in competition with the nation's best amateurs. He piled points to take" first position from up a total of 220.7 Roy Mikkelsen, Auburn, and national champion; Casper Oimen, Anaconda, 1934 champion, and a host of divisional champions. Mikkelsen scored 218.2 points and Oimen 216.4.

Jumps 182 Mikkelsen registered the longest jump, sailing through the air for 182 feet in a gust of wind that threaTened to blow him onto the sidehill. The distances were considerably less than had been expected. Cross winds and weather that ranged from snow to rain and sleet, prevented use of the large takeoff as had been planned. Those qualifying for positions on the American team, including alternate positions, are: Fredheim, Minneapolis, first 158, second 181, points 220.7. Mikkelsen, Auburn.

Cali.f., first 156, second 182, points 218.2. Oimen, Anaconda, first 157, second 174, points 216.4. Fredbo, Salt Lake City, first 156, second 177, points 215.7. Hendrickson, Canton, S. first 149, second 172, points 212.4.

McLean, Hot Sulpher Springs, first 158, second 175, points 210.5. Fredbo looked good to us. Salt of themselves. Lake City can be proud of the lad. His form was fine, his distance was good.

Altogether it was a great day for America.
