'Vetmobile' Given To Paralyzed Vet
Framingham, Mass. — (U.P.) Visitors to the Veterans hospital these days are likely to see a strange machine puttering around the grounds. It is a combination 'midget automobile and power workshop.
A fugitive from an aircraft scrap heap, the "vetmobile" was presented to Robert F. Driscoll of Brockelhoff to assist in his rehabilitation. It was built by navy chief Petty Officer Edward T. Atkins of Oakland, Calif.
Atkins took old plane parts and put them together with fingertip control for the veteran, who is paralyzed from the waist down. It also is equipped with a news-stand, two tables, a desk, saws, and a key-making machine as Dricos can run a repair shop while peddling his papers.
Vine Bears In December
Cleburne, Tex. — (U.P.) — Elizabeth Jones, a 4-H club girl living near here, gathered 42 pounds of tomatoes off one vine she planted in the spring. The vine didn't produce normally, but weathered the hot summer months to bear in December.

If KU. does tie for first place in the Big Seven cage race, there is no assurance that the Jayhawkers will gain the right to play Bradley to decide which team will represent Ripley. The N.C.A.A. tournament
The N.C.A.A. Fifth district selection committee decided that in case of a tie, they will choose the team to oppose Bradley, and that no play-off will be held.
Both the University of Oklahoma and the University of Missouri helped boost the Jayhawkers into a second place tie with Kansas State over the weekend. The Sooners blasted Nebraska at Lincoln 64 to 48 and the Tigers defeated Kansas State at Manhattan 58 to 55. The Jayhawkers had little trouble in turning back Iowa State 66 to 52.
Lindell Pearson, star Sooner halfback, will not play for O.U. next season. His eligibility case was reviewed March 3 by the executive committee of the Big Seven conference and the group reaffirmed its finding that he is ineligible for further varsity competition. Pearson played two games in 1947 with the University of Arkansas 'B' team before transferring to Oklahoma. The committee decided that his participation in football at Arkansas had used up a year of eligibility in the Big Seven.
All good things come to an end:
Columbia 61, Holy Cross 54. The Crusaders had won 29 games without a defeat.
The Kansas City Star reports that K.U.'s win in the Big Seven track meet was a "surprise" victory. The Star also states that the Jayhawkers would have been satished with second place before the meet started. Pat Bowers, Bob Karnes, and company evidently didn't have this information in time to comply with instructions as the Jayhawkers went on to win by a five and one half point margin. Congratulations, Bill Easton.
4 Records Set As Cyclones Win Dual
Winning all nine of the first places, Iowa State sunk the Jayhawker swimmers 64 to 20 in a dual meet March 3. Four new pool records were set by the Cyclones in their win.
Roger Watts, Iowa State spinner, bettered two K.U. pool records which were already his own. He won the 220-yard free style in 2:11.2, his old record being 2:11.8. His other record was set in the 440-yard free style in 4:48.6, nine-tenths of a second better than his old mark. Both of his previous records were set in 1948.
Malcolm Schmidt of Iowa State won the 100-yard free style in 52.6, shaving a full two seconds from the old record established in 1949.
The 440-yard free style relay record of 3:44.0, established just this year by the Kansas team, was broken by the Iowa Staters who swam it in 3:35.6.
The Jayhawker swim squad now has one dual remaining, with Nebraska at Lincoln, today before they go to Norman, Okla., for the conference meet Friday, March 10 and Saturday, March 11.

Trouble Ahead For Pittsburgh Seen By Saigh
St. Petersburg, Fla. —(U.P.)—Convinced his St. Louis Cardinals will do all right, owner Fred Saigh saw nothing but trouble ahead for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
"The they have bargained away their pennant chances for some years to come by paying $100,000 for a high school pitcher," he claimed. "It will be a miracle if the Pirates come out of it without a rhubarb. Remember what happened to the Braves because of Antonelli?"
He was referring to the bonus the Pirates paid Paul Pettit, a California school boy, to sign with them, and to Johnny Autonelli, a kid pitcher whom the Braves signed for a bonus of $75,000 and then found he was of no use to them in their drive to the National league pennant in 1948.
"Come next. May when we all have to trim our rosters to 25 players, there are going to be 25 Pirates wondering how much more money they would be getting if it hadn't been for the Pettit deal," said Mr. Saigh. "That $100,000 the Pirates shelled out for hope comes right down to being $4,000 each to those 25 players.
"They may like him, but they aren't going to forget that $100,000 for they might be getting a cut of it, otherwise.
"Don't let anyone tell you that it wasn't the big reason behind the blow up of the Braves the past year. The players just couldn't stand seeing Antonelli sitting there on the bench every day while they went out on the field to play ball for a lot less money. It just does something to the spirit of a ball club.
"The Pirates are going to find that out."
Mr. Saigh, the newest of the major league club owners, also took a blast at the published salaries which such priced stars as Ted Williams, Joe D Maggio and others are supposed to be drawing down.
"I see," he said, "where some reports say Williams signed for $125,-000, this year, well, let me tell you this—it is closer to $75,000.
"So the baseball fan thinks that guys like Williams and Di Maggio are making all the money.
"But let me say this, our boy Stan Musial, and there isn't a greater player in the game, comes out of a person with take home pay only $184,000 ($22,000) than Williams and Di Nigro are getting. I have the figures to prove it."
He disclosed that the Cardinal organization the past year netted $1,100,000.

Kansas trackmen scored more points than any other team in the annual conference indoor track and field meet at Kansas City March 3 and 4, but the Jayhawkers earned more points than they were awarded.
Jayhawkers Gypped As Judges Miscue
and 2----4:30 Sunday
In the 60-yard low hurdles K.U. won either five or six points. The records credit the Kansens with only one. Coach Bill Easton calls it "one of those things which will happen in a short race if a judge so much as takes his eyes away from the finish line for even a second."
Call 785-K-2
Here is what Coach Easton says happened; Jack Greenwood of Kansas clearly finished either first or second, Jayhawker Forrest Griffith obviously finished fifth, but somehow Greenwood was missed amongst the front runners by the finish judges and relegated to fifth place. Griffith was left out entirely by the officials. Although Coach Easton protested, officials stuck to their original decision.

Coach Easton said Sunday, "Not only did it hurt to lose the points at the time for we needed them badly then, but I was very sorry to see Forrest's name left out of the record books. Although he has only had two weeks practice, he did a wonderful job for us Friday night by beating Carter of Missouri in the preliminaries" Carter was the pre-meet favorite to win the event.
Another K.U. point was lost when Emil Schutzel was disqualified in the 440-yard dash although he fin-
