Relay Carnival, With Vital War Time Job, Will Be Held As Usual With stress being placed on physical fitness in the current war, Brlgham Young university's annual Invitation Track ahd Field Meet and Relay Carnival will play an even, more prominent role this year in keeping Utah youths in good physical condition, according to Charles J. Hart, physical education edu-cation director at B. Y. U. Largest mass meet of its kind in the intermountain territory, the carnival provides competition and participation for upwards of 3000 youths and 1s witnessed by more than 10,000 people each year. Plans Go Forward - Preparations are going forward rapidly for the meet, according to Director Hart. The carnival was conducted through the first World war without a hitch. "The United States is interested inter-ested in manpower power and physical fitness. We believe there are no events that will develop strength and velocity which are foundational to power as much as track and field events," Mr. Hart said. Distance races develop endurance, endur-ance, sprints develop speed, and jumps and weight activities develop de-velop strength, he pointed out. Girls Benefit Girls benefit as well as boys with their own track and field competition and the posture parade. par-ade. The parade, and practice for it, teaches girls to maintain proper prop-er alignment of the body, he pointed out. Physical exercise is important. Experiments have proved, for instance, in-stance, that playing an hour of tennis a day has tripled a man's ability to sustain effort at a crest load. The body responds to training train-ing by throwing off fatigue products. pro-ducts. The relay carnival is open to everyone and is not a team participation par-ticipation affair, with individual achievement and mass participation participa-tion stressed.

Pastor Spoils Lesnevich's Title Hopes By JACK CUDDY NEW YORK, Jan. 31 U.n Bob Pastor, "spoiler" scourge of the heavyweight division, has blasted another aspirant for the golden crown Gus Lesnevich. Pulling a mallet-like left hook from his bag of tricks, veteran Pastor gave light-heavyweight champion Lesnevich such a pasting past-ing at the Garden last night that the sandyrhaired Jersey scrapper regretted stepping out of his class to try for a shot at Joe Louis. Non-Title Bout Fortunately for Gus his 175-pound 175-pound title was not at stake, since both came in as heavyweights for their 10-round brawl. Pastor won the unanimous decision de-cision by an impressive margin and was hammering under sucn, a full head of steam at the finish that he might have knocked out Lesnevich had the bout teen for 15 rounds. Pastor, with nis disconcerting left hooks and mongoose body-feinting, body-feinting, ruined the 175 - pound ruler's heavywei g h t campaign just as he did those of Bob Nest-ell, Nest-ell, Chuck Crowell, Roscoe Toles, Tiger Warrington, Turkey Thompson, Thomp-son, Maurice Strickland and Booker Book-er Beckwith. Although Rapid Robert Rob-ert of New York has had two unsuccessful bouts with Louis, himself, he seems destined by the fistic fates to ast as a perennial barrier between rising contenders and the champion. Pastor vs. Franklin However, this role of "spoiler" may be ended abruptly on Feb. 24 when Pastor tackles Lem Franklin, Cleveland's dark dynamiter, dyna-miter, in Lem's home town. Smart-money Smart-money men say Franklin will be favored at 2-1 or 3-1. Meanwhile Promoter Mike Jacobs, Ja-cobs, who announced the disappointing dis-appointing figures of $20,728 and 9,592 persons for last night's show, seems virtually certain to match Melio Bettina, the Bacon, N. Y., smithpaw and Joe Louis for his army relief fight at the Garden, March 27. Basketball Scores BY UNITED PRESS r Oregon State 36, Washington State 34. Brigham Young 46,- Denver 36.

It was this flossy defense that accounted largely for the victory. The Wildcats could get few clean shots at the basket, with the Bulldogs concentrating on Dick Dabling and big Don Hansen.
