MIDGETS, DEMONS ONLY UNDEREATED OF LEADER GROUP Jamestown, Mandan, Grand Forks and Valley City to Make Trouble MINOT AND SATANS ARE OUT Any One of Six Teams May Spring Big Surprises in Coming Tourneys With six outstanding high school basketball teams in the state this year, the annual state tourney at the state training school gymnasium in Mandan March 22 and 23 should be one of the greatest ever staged. The six teams which have shown the most class so far this season are Fargo, Valley City, Jamestown, Bis- marck, Mandan, and Grand Forks. And Williston, Minot, Bowbells, Devils Lake and Starkweather are but a shade behind the leaders. It is possible for only four of these teams to enter the state tournament, but it is regarded as a certainty in most quarters that four of this group will win in their regions. Mandan and Bismarck and Jamestown and Valley City must fight between them- selves for the opportunity. Fargo and Grand Forks are con- ceded favorable opportunities to win. Any of this group, however, enter- ing the state meet, will be respected by all other teams. Midgets, Demons Undefeated Fargo and Bismarck, the only two undefeated teams among the leaders, do not meet in a scheduled game though they may cross swords at the state tournament. Fargo's five wins and one loss this season have indicated that the Midg- ets are strong. The Midgets whipped the Wahpeton Indians 47 to 9; Wah- peton 25 to 15; Oakes 59 to 10; Grand Forks 16 to 14; and Moorhead 25 to 20; Kimball’s men lost to Duluth Central 25 to 27 in an-overtime game. The purple clad warriors have yet to meet Valley City, Jamestown, 8t. Cloud, Aberdeen, and Moorhead again before the district tournament March 8 and 9. Bismarck, undefeated, has beaten Hebron 23 to 8; Linton 51 to 8; Dick- inson 43 to 4; Mandan 32 to 17; Valley City 22 to 10 and 28 to 10; Jamestown 24 to 11.

Jack “Battling” Krause about the same time was emitting a series of loud and raucous yowls that would make even the governor think that an arctic pack was scourging the country, It seems that Bat had just read\in the Bismarck Tribune that Isham Hall was angling for a Lee Cava- angh-Russie LeRoy. bout to be staged in Bismarck. From just angry yips, Bat progressed to lusty Ger- manic bellows of rage as he saw a long sought ambition to meet Mr. Cavanagh go glimmering in the Hall-Hurley negotiations. Bat couldn’t get to.a telephone fast enough to tell The Tribune sports editor that he was still the best wel- terweight in North Dakota. “Say! Dat guy LeeeRoy is yust a beeg palooka,” rattled Bat into the telephone so loud and fast that the Hasen-Bismarck phone poles rocked. “Bay! I can knock Roosie flatter than & Missouri river sandbar. Wot’s day guy Hall pulling off? Ain't I rated a chanct at Cavynaw? Ain't I?” For some 25 minutes Bat reeled off his tale of woe. From the stew of German expletives, vowels and con- sonants, mixed with murdered Eng- lsh, the fact was gathered that Bat figures his draw with Herman Ratz- laff, the Minot Iron Man, earned in in any wel- secreieht matchmaking made in this state. Bat stated that he was ready to step into a ring any time with Cay- anagh or LeRoy, winner take all. ‘The battle-scarred veteran added that he thought that it was a good proposition for all concerned, except wanagh. “Dat would pe a bad break for him,” Bat piped.

Detroit, Feb. 7.—(7)—Tex Rickard’s promotional genius lives in “Dick” Dunn, youthful alumnus of Madison Square Garden, who has developed Detroit into one of the outstanding boxing centers of the United States. “Dick,” Richard G., 32, is the gen- eral manager of Detroit's new $3,000,- 000 Olympia Sports Arena. The friends of “Dick” Dunn said he could not fail to achieve success. He has been in the sports business since knee pant days. He is the son of John P. Dunn, old promoter of the Coney Island Sporting Club, a success 30 years ago. Worked For Tex “Dick” worked for Rickard in the old and the new Garden. He hes achieved success in Detroit by turn- ing the Olympia arena from a flop into a thriving business enterprise. ‘When Dunn became manager of the arena about a year ago it was @ losing venture. Within 12 months Dunn took’ in $400,000 on Arena box- ue Snes ane also developed ey and of sports as ma; attractions. sol The young promoter started de- livering press notices for his father. He was 12 years old. Next he was with P. T. Powers and Harry Pol- lock, promoters of six-day bicycle races. Before Rickard came to the Garden, Dunn was a telephone opera- tor in the superintendent’s office. Usher, he was, and also ticket taker, ticket seller, concession manager, time keeper, assistant superintendent and superintendent. In World War “Dick” went to the world war with the 365th machine gun battalion of New York’s own 77th division. Back in New York, he went to work for Rickard as his assistant. When De- troit wanted a manager, Promoter Rickard recommended Dick and here he came. y Like the late “Tex,” Dunn believes in giving the public what it wants, and he subscribes to a policy that Killilea, 24-year-old and former University of Wisconsin co-ed, says she is going to manage the club pia DICK DUNN, DETROIT PROMOTER, RICKARD GENIUS BRITISH AUTO RACER TO QUIT NODAKS SNEAK OT 28-07 LAST MINUTE WIN OVER MAROONS if Schave, Lee and Jarrett Chall Up Counters in Final Four Minutes of Play Maj.
