Hicks ts well known a a teUr player asiong local ter.n'J circles. He by K. K. Rockne. under whose coach ing Oberst became one oi me tcsi of Notre Dame tackles and perhaps the greatest Javelin thrower the university ever had.

Oberst went to the Olympics as a Javelin thrower, but Uncle Sam's Javelin throwers arc Invariably also rans when they collide with native Swedes. "The addition of Oberst to the De Pauw coaching staff is Just a contin uation of our policy to round out a complete crew of. athletic instructors." said Mr. Hushes. "We believe Oberst will fit into the scheme of things here at DePauw because In addition to his baseball, track and football knowledge he has had some very val uable experience in Handling ooys.

It Seems That on Saturday Tech and Kokomo tied for the highest honors with 38 points each. Frankfort failed to score, and some one in the crowd asked Deke If Casey's kids were stalling again.

De layed offense. Secrfct and George tied for the high jump. That leaves Secrlst one up. as Charles outjumped his Anderson opponent in the dying moments of a game that counted for more than all the track meets ever held in this world. That Is.

It did as far as Muncie Is concerned. Glenn Curtis, of Martinsville, announced Informally that Indiana has lost Reynolds and that Terre Haute Normal now has him. Reynold had an extended Idea of a week end and the frat boys Rave him his walking papers. He fooled 'em and took 'em. The track meet at Tech established one record at least.

It was run off exactly on time. Deke's announcing was worthy of another record. Yale won a boat race from Columbia's champions. It was an upset. We mean the result.

Shortridge won a track meet from Bloomlngton. The score was six to four in firsts and the final result 62 to 37. as If that matters. Chicago. 72: Purdue.
