U.'s great hoop team will play for conference honors with either Wyoming university uni-versity or the Colorado Teachers, In Provo this week. The championship cham-pionship games will be played in the Ladies' gym Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Decision to hold all three of the games in Provo was made Sun day at a meeting of the athletic council of the school, the Provo chamber of commerce com-merce and a committee of citizens. citi-zens. Although overtures have been received from two other cities in the state to hold at least one of the games there, it was felt by the chamber of commerce and the citizens, citi-zens, along with the council, that "the series belongs to Provo, and efforts will be made to effect a complete sellout of the three games before Thursday.

BY HENRY McLEMOItU United lres Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, March 4 (U.R) When Sir Malcolm Campbell returns re-turns to the United States in 1934 j to attempt to better his own world's land speed record of 272.108 miles an hour, there is a strong possibility possi-bility he will abandon the sands of Daytona Beach as a speedway in favor of the hard-packed salt beds in Utah. This was learned during a con versation with Bill Strum, pride of Indianapolis the British driver's driv-er's American manager. While visiting Strum, who was abed with the flu, we asked if Campbell intended in-tended trying to boost the mark II. McLemore he established II.. IIT1.I1 Ka in Daytona recenuy. u back," Strum said. That 300 miles an hour business is in his biooti. and he won't be satisfied until he goes that fast." We asked Strum u uayionu Beach again would be the scene of Campbell's efforts. "That I don't know. Maybe yes, maybe no." Strum Iooks It Over One vear ago Strum, made an exhaustive study of the great salt beds which lie some 120 miles west nf Rnit Tkf Citv. What he found was very encouraging. He found a great expanse of salt, 85 miles by seven miles in area, with a sur face as smooth and hard as a billiard table. Somewhere within this great white expanse he found the perfect racing course- a cement-hard strip more than eleven miles long and several hundred yards wide. And what is more important, Strum found the salt beds little affected af-fected by weather. Waits 3 Weeks Campbell was In Daytona Beach three weeks this year, waiting for the perfect wind and the ' perfect tide to whip the beach into perfect shape. The perfect wind and perfect per-fect tide never arrived, so he was forced to drive over a surface that not only endangered his ke and his car, but robbed him of many precious miles an hour. What i more, the shells that littered the beach chewed his tires almost to shreds.

EASTERN FIVES PLAY FOR TITLE DENVER, March 6 Wyoming's conference tasketta,n champion Cowboy team will play the Colorado Colora-do Teachers in Denver tonight to decide Which of the quints win the Eastern division and the right to oppose Brigham Young U in Provo this week for the conference. The Teachers won a tie in the division Saturday night by trouncing trounc-ing Colorado College at Colorado Springs, 41-32. It was their ninth consecutive triumph.

Entrance to the office was gained by breaking the front door glass and unlatching the lock, according to Bert Halladay, investigating inves-tigating officer. H. J.

Prices Advancing Evidence that the downward plunge of prices has been stayed is found in the fact that prices on J the under-grades of eggs have ad- vanced between one and two cents a dozen. It is hoped the gain will : be reflected in all grades within a i week or two. From past experience and present pres-ent indications, Mr. Edmonds be-; be-; lieves that the market, after firm-; firm-; ing slightly in March, will rejnain i fairly steady for about 90 days, and then begin a gradual climb un-j un-j til about Christmas. In view of these seasonal price fluctuations, poultrymen are urged to take the year-round view of their business, particularly when computing profit pro-fit and loss. Though present prices are low, excessive discouragement is unwarranted, for it should be remembered that these conditions are only temporary and seasonal.

In the first place the rain is likely to leave the surface sur-face of the salt rippled after the manner of a washboard. But for tunately, this ripply condition, should it arise during a speed trial, could be remedied by nothing more complicated than having a plain old fashioned road scraper make a trip over the course. The biggest handicap is their inaccessibility. in-accessibility. It would require a good deal of money for the' equipment equip-ment necessary for a speed trial. While Mr. Strum did not say so, we have a very strong hunch that, if Utah should happen to put up enough of what the boys call the old scratch, Sir Malcolm will go for 300 miles an hour in 1934 on the sun-drenched salt beds of Utah instead, in-stead, of the crystal sands of Daytona Day-tona Beach.
