Afterword I am not able to boot only 31-22 and below are in the menu still. I have to press e to edit and change them to 35-28 and it will boot up. On screen it says that it is grub 1.97 beta4, I ran a command to see what grub was installed and it states 0.97. (grub-install -v
grub-install (GNU GRUB 0.97) )How and where do I change this so I can boot without having to change it with 'e' every time I boot?

No menu will be displayed, even if multiple kernels are installed and later. Hold down SHIFT to display the menu during boot (formerly ESC in GRUB legacy).
