One is the freshman sprint medley which Cochrane, Cape, Bueslng and Loekery set in 1937, another the discus which Junior Kapp set when he tossed the platter 144 feet, 104 Inches in 1938. and the third is the shot mark of 47 feet which Vince Jones set last year and hopes to better this.

Only Grinnell can equal Lawrence's claim. Friends of Sam Leete, whose high jump record at the high school was beaten recently by Guy Barlow, still take Sam as their favorite. They point out that recent rule changes allow a form in jumping that was barred when Leete set his record. Big league baseball is not going to find itself tackling the prob lems brought onrby the national defense draft all by its lonesome! The question has been brought to the attention of War Department officials by the word that Hank Greenberg of the Tigers, Cecil Travis and Buddy Lewis of the Senators and Joe. Marty of tire Phillies, having been rated in Class 1-A by their local boards, must make themselves ready for a May call to the colors.

So far, the only club hit by the draft is Philadelphia of the National League. Hugh Mulcahy, righthander, already is in an Army camp. Now Mar-ty must go. The Phillies are not so well supplied with talent that they can spare anybody of real ability. While club owners and managers of the National and American leagues have begun to show some apprehension lest their forces be drained of key players.

It was reported that the War Department and Selective Service Bureau were opposed to causing baseball serious embarrassment. That a plan to ease matters for the major leagues would come soon from the Adjutant General's office 'was predicted recently by Clark Griffith, president of the Washington Club. It was recalled that it was Griffith, who in 1917, interceded with Secretary of War Newton D. Baker and was instrumental in keeping the major leagues going after the "Work or Fight" order had indicated a July stoppage of the pennant races. "I want to it emphatic that baseball has not gone to the War Department for relief," Grif fith said "However, the War Department for some time has been cognizant of our.

problem and I am sure is willing to help us. "Just what the plan will be, I cannot say. There may be an order which would prevent the drafting of more than one player of any major league club until the 1941 season is over. Perhaps the limit" will be fixed at two players. Then again, the Adjutant General's office may allow all our draft eli-gibles to remain in the major leagues until October, and in the meantime order military drill for all players in baseball.

This, you will recollect, was done in 1917 and 1918." 1 i 3 Lions Club Teams Bowl, in State Meet The Pittsburgh team of the Ap pleton Lions club turned in the best score of three outfits from Ap pleton. that competed last night in" the state Lions bowling tournament at Fort Atkinson.

Lawrence Will Send30Meho Beloit Relays Viking Squad Largest; In Field; Team Rated Stronger Than in '40 Beloit As their bid for suprenv tcy of the fifth annual Beloit re lays at Beloit college Friday, seven colleges in Wisconsin will enter ap proximately 100 athletes in the track carnival acording to Lou E.

Means, relays director. The seven are Beloit, Lawrence. Ripon, CarrolL Milton, St. Norbert's and Mission House. Largest delegation entered from any school Is the 30-man squad of Lawrence -which is probably the strongest Wisconsin team.

Coach Art Denney has men entered in every event but the two mile relay. Other large squads which have en tered the relays are Grinnell with 29 and Coe with 27. Considerably stronger than last year, Lawrence has three outstanding cindermen in Vince Jones, Jim Orwig and Jim Fieweger. Jones holds the present relays shotput record and is almost certain to retain his championship; he is also excellent in the javelin and discus Orwig, the Viking captain, is a star hurdler and hieh jumper, while Fieweger is a one man track team. For the first time in the history of the relays.

Beloit is not conceded much change" to place among the leaders since Ineligibility and with drawals from school have blasted all hones for a good team showing. Chuck Bacon, high jump record holder, will be back, and Dick Rad dant, ace sprinter, will both be standout individual performers for the Gold. I Wachs Mile Contender Carroll is stronger this year and showed surprising power against Lawrence last week. Coach Charles Hire believes that Cliff Wachs has a good chance to place in the special Beloit mile. Although Ripon is not very pow erful this year as shown by its 92-39 defeat at the hands of BeloiV it nas an individual star in Sveto Krcmar, all-around athlete, who is defending relays pole vault champion.

He also will enter the hieh jump and Entered in the Beloit relays for the first time. St. Norbert's college is sending eight men coached by Wert Englemann, a former Green Bay Packer football star. Mission House college wiH send one of the favorites to place in the special mile race. White Rabbit, an Indian runner.

Coach Marius Kre-gel will enter the other three men he is bringing in the field events. Milton college has two men entered.

don't refer to our ball park by any name except Braves field." Carrying out such Instructions was an extremely happy chore for Quinn, for it enabled him to escape from an unpleasant situation of his own making in January of 1936. Shortly before, Quinn had been placed in charge of the club by C. F. Adams, who had taken it over from Emil Fuchs for debt. For months before, the nation's sport pages had been referring' to it as the bankrupt Braves, much to Quinn's anguish.

"Since the club's ownership has been changed, we might as well Change nickname," Bob declared. Thereupon he asked the. public to select a new name. Exactly 1,327 different ones were suggested by more than 12,000 fans. Quinn was so overwhelmed with mail that he apoealed to the Boston baseball writers to serve as a selection committee.

And they did, much to his regret. After ploughing through a mountain of mail, the writers reduced the list, which had nicknames that started with every letter except to six and then balloted. Since most of the writers were headline-minded, Bees struck their fancy. "Well, I brought this on myself," Quinn lamented when he learned the result. But never did he ever call his club the Bees and he wine ed every time he ver heard any body else do it Looks Like MacPhail Came Out Second Best In Purchase of Higbe Philadelphia It looks like maybe Gerry Nugent of the Phillies put over another of his famed "David Harum" deals in selling pitcher Kirby Higbe to Larry MacPhail of the Brooklyn Dodgers last fall for $100,000 and three players.
