Yost, athletic director at the University of Michigan, who ban just completed an investigation into the 43 deaths charged against football last fall, disclosed today that only 22 of the fatalities actuahy resulted from playing the game. He has presented a report on his findings to E. K. Hall, chair man of the football rules com mittee, which will open its an nual meeting at Hanover, N. H., Friday. Yost said he learned that one boy reported to have died from football injuries is alive and en joying good health. Another who was reported dead was found never to have existed. Of the 21 reported deaths which Yost re fuses to charge against football, two were caused by pneumonia. one by infantile paralysis, one by kidney disease, six by infections, one by appendicitis, one by ty Tisit of the strong College of Pu- Phoi fever. and one by heart get Sound quintet which gave Whitman a run for its money re- disease.

Three boys who and Whitman tied for first place did not play football, died from as the only remaining undefeated unknown causes teams, but Linfield is not out of the race yet. It showed enough, despite the score, Wednesday night to leave Berious doubt that Wil lamette will be able to repeat the victory on Linfield's floor. Had to Keep Going Of Face Disaster Even after the Bearcats had piled up a commanding lead, the feeling remained among their best friends that if they should slow down for even a minute, the Wild cats would be snarling around them and headed for victory. Wil lamette's men, however, never did slow down. They showed more sustained speed, considering the opposition, than at any time this season. i For the first 10 minutes or 'thereabouts Linfield made it a 'tight battle and was ahead most of the time. But after a 6hot by Faber had tied the count at eight all, the Bearcats began clicking on all five and rolled their total up to 22 before the Wildcats scored again. The half time score was 26 to 12. Wildcats Rally But Fail to Threaten Twice In the second half Lin field staged impressive rallies, with long range shooting by the veteran Cook the principal factor, but they never threatened serious ly. Both of Willamette's alternat Ing centers had the tipoff over Darby, and ferocious ball hawking under the basket by Allen and Kaiser was too much for the Bap tists. Faber's speed-was another out standing feature in Willamette's The 22 deaths which did re- suit irom rootDaii injuries were from the following causes: brok en neck eight; cerebral hemor rhage four; peritonitis lour; Wood clot, skull fracture, rup tured spleen and brain concus from unknown causes.

Church Quintet Hands Salem B Its First Loss the strongest basket tos their career. The Monmouth men's playing so far this season has been erratic as in the game at Dallas last Friday night against the Dallas town team. In the first three quarters of the game the Normals were off time and the ball would not have landed in a wash tub. They missed enough shots to win several games.
