GRAHAM McNAMEE, radio's ace reporter of sporting events, has
ag-ain been chosen as the nation's eye-witness for the 500-mile
auto race classic at I ldianapolis on May 30. The Firestone Tire and
.Rubber Company will sponsor the last and most exciting hour of
the race. Perched high in the glass-enclosed pergola near the finish
line, McNamee will describe the shouting thousands in the stands, the
milling hordes afoot inside the tracl, and the gruelling tussle of 40 of
the world's most famous racers in their grim race with death. McNamee
says the Indianapolis races surpass all sporting events for excitement.
He will take the air at 2:15 p. m. Central Standard time and will tell
his story over a network of 55 stations in the United States and Canada,
including WEAF and the NBC red chain- Four former winners are
entered. A win is worth about $50,000. It is said that all former rec
ords will be broken. (Broadcasting Time: 3:15 Eastern, 2:15 Central,
1:15 Mountain, 12:15 Coast. Daylight Saving one hour cmlier.)
Washington. D. C, May 2 6. Rep
resentative Ruth Bryan Owen has
set aside the next two months for
relaxation of the long cherished
longing to go gypsyiiiR through a
land where she doesn't know the
language.
She will sail on June IS f;r Cop
enhag n, equipped in the most mod-
: n auto trailer manner for doing
Denmark in the manner of her choice.
She said she couldn't count on
making friends witb the Danish peo
ple in troubadour fashion, though
she may take her concertina along,
hut she counts on her entouraK' to
attract thf.se whom .she passes. Last
Bummer when she went to Yellow
stone, curious crowds gathered
rever she parked her huge trail
er to look at its kitchenette, its
berths, its electric lights, its phone
for dire-ting the driver.
To each of the two children and
to herself she has allotted one kind
red soul to share the fun.
Mrs. Owen chose Fannie Hurst,
the novelist, her companion in Eng
land and Ireland last summer, and
on many previous occasions.
Her son, Reginald Bryan Owen,
is taking iiis pa!. Ben de Louche, a
yountj singer who will remain abroad

number of pounds of corn obtained
represents the number of bushels per
acre for the field.

Test Iron Sulphate in Orchard Sprays.
Tests will be run this summer In
four orchards in southeastern Ne
braska to determine the advisability
of using iron sulphate In place of
part of the lime sulphur in orchard
sprays. Yal Keyser of Shuhert.
Dearie Baker. Shuhert. Worth King,
Shubert, and drove Porter of Ne
braska City will coeperate with the
Horticulture department of the Col
lege of Agriculture in conducting
the tests.
The men plan to substitute one
half pounel of iron sulphate for part
of the lime sulphur in summer sprays.
Instead of using a gallon to a gallon
and a half of lime sulphur they will
cut that amount down to three
fourths of a gallon to 50 gallons of
water.
The orchardists are after a summer
spray which will be effective with
out burning the leaves and scalding
the apples. Heavy applications of
lime sulphur have caused consider
able damage, especially when the
temperature is above SO degree-.

No Hurry to Plant Sudan Grass.
No one need to be in a hurry to
plant Sudan grass, crops men at the
Agricultural College say. Sudan i
essentially a hot weather crop and
will not germinate and grow well
early in the season.
Men who would use Sudan for
temporary pastures this summer
might just as well wait until all the
corn is planted or even until the mid
dle of June to bow the Sudan grass.
Thirty pounds of good clean seed per
acre is about the usual rate of plant
ing. Between n nv and planting time
two or three cultivations will d;
much te keep down the weeds and
conserve the supply of moisture
which the Sudan will need during
July and August to make a maximum
growth.
Sudan is probably the best hot
weather pasture crop which can be
grown in Nebraska. In combination
with rye and sweet clover it makes
an all-season temporary pasture on
practically any kind ef reasonably
fertile soil in thois state.
