LA GRANDE TIGERS MAY PLACE FIRST (Continued from Page One) Washington high schools of Portland are expected to furnish La Qrande tho keenest competition with Pen-, dleton, Mac-Hi and Ontario due to mako a strong showing for Eastern Oregon. Of the three last named teams, On tario has the best chances for first places, duo to the ability of Baker to hurl the dlseus close to 119 feet and Prahl's pole vaulting, which set a new Eastern Oregon record of 11 feet, 6 Inches, which happens to tie ' tho state meet record. If ' those two boys perform at Corvallis as they did 1 in La Grande, Ontario may take home about 10 points. ... Murks Not So Strong Pendleton's chances ' for a first place ore slim, unless It comes from tho prowess of Wilbur Kidder, hur dler, high Jumper and weight man. Ho enters four events and Is strong 111 an and it is not unh&ciy that ho emerge victor in one at least. He was tho only Buckaroo who could win a first place In tho Eastern Ore gon meet. . . ; . McLoughlln's best bot Is Miller, who was barely nosed out by Beery last Saturday in tho 100-yard dash, and who finished a few yards behind Beery in the 220. Miller also broad Jumps over 21 feet, and that may brings points. Hufford, quarter mllcr, wilt faco throe or four men who, arc rt'nnlug tho 440 In close to record time, and will be fortunate if he places. The Mac-Hl relay team is also strong enough to bear watching, with such splinters as Miller and Markham running. Mr. Peare to Time J. H. Pcaro, of La Gmncte, will bo ono of the official timers at tho meet at Corvallis, which will bo broadcast over the college radio sta tion KOAO.

May 7 iy Religious sculptures nearly 4.000 years old have been brought to London by C. Leon ard Woolley from Ur of the Chaldes. They include Inscriptions and tab let which throw new light on the history and re lis Ion of people who lived about 2,000 B, C. Sculptures of tho time of Abra ham, about 3.000 to 1.800 B. C. rep resent tho worship of God by the cemmon people. They were found in little chapels built along the public streets of Ur. WASHINGTON (A) How much metals stretch when heated to high temperatures is being tested by a specially-devised apparatus at the bureau of standards. The piece of metal to be tested Is fastened so that levers exert a strong pull upon It. Then a small electric furnace heats the metal to the desired temperature. Experimenters can dctennlne Just how much the metal has stretched by sighting through a small door in tho sido of tho furnace. They use an optical measuring telescope which measures a stretch as small as two tcn-thousandaths of an Inch. Metals aro tasted at temperatures ranging up to 1600 degrees Fahrenheit.

Gould (Associated Press Sports Editor) Nothing being more welcome these spring days than an argument, the following letter from Ira Mtnnihln of Hadlock, Wash., oom.es at an op portune time: "We had an argument at school concerning well known athletes. Two of my teachers, being University of Illinois graduates, contended Red Grange along with Jack Dempsey and Babe Ruth were the best known. I agreed with them on the latter two, but said that Red Grange was virtually unheard of today. I would like to know which three athletes New Dowrulraft Stromberg Carburetor FOR MODEL A FORD IS HERE More speed and less pis. Burgess Battery & Electric Station Opposite La Grande tiroerrr havo received the most newspaper space in the last seven years." RCTH, JONES, DEMPSEY The answer is a lot easier than it may, seem, there being no ques tion in this observer's mind that the three most publicized figures of sport for the boom period of 1923-30 are Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones and Jack Dempsey. Nationally, 1 do not think there is any question of Ruth's leader ship, whether it is figured in agate lines, mileage or bushel baskets. The greater international fame of Jones and Dempsey, in sports which carry a much more universal appeal than baseball, puts these two per formers well up to the Babe's level. To confirm our views on this matter we polled a group who make it. their business to scan, prepare and direct the flow of The Associated Press news report. Their opinions put Ruth and Jones in a tie, close ly followed by Dempsey, with Helen Wills Moody and Knute Rockne next. Ruth has an edge over most of his rivals by reason of being in ac tion daily lor better than half the year. He can play up to 154 games a season. His showmanship at all times begets an amazing amount of newspaper space. No other ball player ranks even close to the Babe in this respect, and the list in cludes Cobb, Mack, Hornsby and McGraw. Jones and Dempsey have much fewer opportunities to crash the public prints Nevertheless they have caught and held the public interest over a long stretch of time. Demp sey, although he lost the world's championship in 1926, outdistanced his rival, Gene Tunney, when it came to public attention. HARDLY SIXTH Red Grange, sensational as wore his exploits for three college years of football, hardly would rank In tho first six when it comes to aggregate mention in the public prints over the seven year period under consideration here. More over, Grange's activities were re stricted to a few weeks each fall. Helen Wills, Knute Rockne, Big Bill Tilden and Gene Tunney pos sibly all would rank above Grange in total wordago over the span of 1923 to 1930. - Rockne, in his me teoric lifetime, furnished, the most magnetic personality in football history by a wide margin. Tilden, roaming all over the world In pursuit of tennis honors, gained moro publicity than any other figure In his specialty, Includ ing Queen Helen.- Grange, in his sophomore year at Illinois in 1923, received hardly any moro publicity than did Yaleto Al taic Booth in the 1929 football cam paign. Army's Red Cagle was very much In tho gridiron spotlight for four years. These football figures, however, pass swiftly from the scene when their college days are over so far as the real headlines aro concerned. The question of supremacy among the all around athletes won't be settled this year until they have it out in the decathlon championship at the National A. A. U. meet In Lincoln. July 4, but the Olympic . prospects are bright enough with I performers such as Jim Bausch of Kansas, Buster Charles of Haskell, Bamev Berllne-er of PnniiRvlunriio nnH Jim Stewart of Southern California available for 1932. Bausch, whose exploits have been moro conspicuous heretofore on the gridiron, sprang a sensation by beat ing Charles, tho Indian, os well as tho American decathlon record, at tho Kansas relays. It required a re count among the timers for the final event, the 1500-meter run, to give Bausch the verdict and relegate Lo, the poor Indian, to second place. Tho ideal decathlon performance would bo a combination of the best features of Bausch and Charles. The Jayhawfcor excels in the field events. whereas tho Indian specializes in the runs and Jumps. ucritnger nas the ability to break the world's record of something over 8000 points if he can strike a day wnen no isn c slumping m one or two features of the ten-event grind. Big Barney fell off in the polo vault and 1500-meter run at the Penn l'C- lays, In addition to which tho tim ers forgot to clock him in the 100 meters and made a conservative uuesa at his performance. Three of the four sprinters who won the 440-yard "football relay" at , Des Moines for the University of ; Texas will play against Harvard at Cambridge in October. They are El kins, regular quarterback; Stafford,' an all-Southwest conference half J . back; and Craig, second-string half-' back.
