The Yankees, plowing through the

: (Associated Press Sports Editor)
It's n gcod time now to post a few
gridiron facts, while they can be
taken In stride. Here's an Inter
esting report from C. D. Locklln.
sports editor of the Grand Forks
Herald:
"When the football season rolls
around next fall the University of
North Dakota will probably present
the fastest backfleld squad In the
country. If there are any others
boasting as much sprinting talent
as the Sioux, we will be surprised.
"North Dakota has had plenty of
fast men during the past four years
when the school has taken on all
ccmiers and lost but four games, but
for sheer speed the 1032 season will
cap the climax.
"The ball carriers will be headed
by Ralph Pierce, who played his first
college football last fall. Pierce Is
from Lafoure. N. D., and at the
Eakcta relays in Sioux Falls, S. D.,
this spring he was clocked in 0.8 in
the century.
"Larry Knauf of Moorhead, Minn.,
who will be a senior next fall. Is
Just a half step behind Pierce. His
best time for the same distance is
SPEKIl AXI MOIiH SI'KKK
"Two sophomore backs, groomed
fof places in spring practice, are a
shade back of the veterans, but they
can kick dust in the face of ordi
nary ball carriers. Knute Belgum
of Elbow Lake, Minn., Is a ten-flat
sprinter, while Jerry Cope of Wa
tertown, S. D., was caught In 10.2
on the track this spring.
"This Is not local time. The boys
have the proof. Four watches were
on Cope when he turned in his 10.2,
and he has. been giving all his time
to spring football, as has Belgum.
And they are all football players.
Speed Flyer Gets
Well Fast
Recovering from Injuries received
In the crash of his famous speed
plane at Worcester, Mass., Cap
tain Frank M. Hawks is shown
above at Boston as he discussed
plans, to set new ..speed records
at high altitudes in a "mystery
ship" which Is being built for
him In California.
Pierce, the lightest, . weighs 162
pounds. Knauf and Belgum. go over
180 and Cope Is Just under that.
"The speed does not . stop with
that quartet, for Coach C. A, West i
has a 229-pound bone crusher in 1
Elnar Echholm of Iron Mountain,
Mich., who can do a hundred under
11 seconds any day he steps on the
track. , .. '
"No one knows whether North
Dakota will be as strong next fall
as they were last. West loses eight
veterans, and among, them Fred
Felber, an end on the A. P. third
ull-Amcrlcan team, but you. can lay
a bet that the Sioux will be tough.
It will be the fastest and heaviest
outfit ever turned out here. What it
will lack Is experience."
TIM'fe T FOKM
The folks back home were not
stunned by the spectacular spurt of
Huck" BetU that planted him
among tho leading National league
pitchers.
"Old Huck." as the 33-year-old
Boston Braves rookie was known
around St. Paul, was a consistent
winner for the local club of the
American association for several
years. He led the league In victories
at least one season while here and
last year paced the Saints' hurlers
in a successful pennant drive. .-
Betts was one of the "smart" A
pitchers In the loop. He didn't curve
the boys silly, but his excellent con
trol enabled him to pitch where he
wanted to and keep the batters in
the hole.
