Rare Cage Treat There is no doubt that basketball lovers will have the opportunity of viewing sme of the best quints that have developed in years in the Slope country. There are real stars on every team and at least three of, the teams will have all-star lineups. W. F. McClelland, superintendent of the state training school and manager of the tournament, has completed all arrangements for the tournament. Accommodations for teams and spectators are even ster than in other years and Mac provides the best organization for’ » tournament basketball that can be had in the northwest. Radio fans can listen in on the games, a Mandan radio station hav- ing built a special booth to hol the mike so that the listeners-in will catch every word of the announcer and be able, to follow every play.

The winner probably will be accorded recogni- tion as the next challenger of Cham- pion Gene Tunney. When the boxers enter the ring they will be rated equally to take the victory, despite Heeney’s advantage of some 20 pounds over Delaney. In doping out the result for this fight, the majority of ring critics have straddled the fence. Many observer's feel that Delaney must knock out Heeney within the first six or seven rounds if he is to win. The New Zealander is consid- cred a rugged boxer of the Plugging type who absorbs plenty of punish- ment for the sake of wearing down his opponent. Heeney never has been counted out. Tonight's bout might well be labelled as the battle of the domin- ions. Delaney, who now has made Bridgeport his residence, is a French-Canadian. Delaney scales about 176 pounds to about 195 for his opponent. s Delaney will have to rely on his speed and ring science to overcome the dogged and. hardy body p nch- ing attack of Heeney. a Prices range from $5.50 tc $22.50 with indications of a crowd exceed- ing 18,000. The fight will start not later than 10 p. m. DELANEY DASHING DELANEY FACES TOUGH FOE BY F. G. VOSBURGH (Feature Service Sports Editor) New York, March 1.—(@)—Jack Delaney, Ben layboy feet led ore weights, wil uy inst one of the toughest of the bi fellows in his 15-round tussle with Tom Heeney at Madison Square Garden, tonight. Their battle opens Tex Rickard’s new “elimination tournament” with an carly summer shot at Tunney’s title as the ize. The dashing Delaney undoubtedly will be a heavy popular favorite al- though he has spar had trouble with the husky, duzable type of fighter represented by the iron- jawed Irishman from New Zealand. The crowd still strings with the fighter who can hit and tha French- Canadian’s flashes of ring genius in knockout victories over sug ofpo- nents as Paul Berlenbach, Mike Mc- Tigue, Tiger Flowers and Bud Gor- man are not easily forgotten. Against a floek of lessor antag- onists of late, which included fully Montgomery and Leo Gates, Deloney has shown new evidence that the old knockout punch is there.
