McLeod, athletic director. ‘A preliminary game will start at 7:15 o'clock. The Demons are in good shape, according to McLeod. Biate high school basketball fans have a week's program of drab games before them. | With the exception of a small} handful of games, contests on the | Program of 30 tilts lack color. Fargo fans will get the best treats in the state. The Midgets tonight meet St. Cloud at Fargo and enter- tain Aberdeen next Thursday. Fargo Acquires Ammunition Kimball's outfit last week proved that they are acquiring ammunition for the annual battle at Mandan by whipping Valley City 33 to 17 and Jamestown 32 to 11 on successive | nights. Weir, elongated center, stamped himself as one of the lead- | ing centers when le credited him- self with ficld goal after field goal in the clashes. Captain Morrie Long and Ed. Jessen played nice games at | guard, and Junie Wilson and Bud Weible performed with snap and ac- * curacy at forwards. Fisher and Air- heart, who has just become eligible for play this semester, were also used in the games. Little is known of the strength of St. Cloud but Aberdeen boasts of a strong aggregation. The South Da- kotans defeated Jamestown 7 to 5 in a remarkable defensive game early in the season. Jamestown travels to Bismarck to- night and Mandan tomorrow nigh! It is expected that Bismarck w * peat a victory gained earlier ‘season. If Mandan exhibits - “* skill tomorrow night whic gg showed against Bismarck last week, “when they held the undefeated Di mons to a 13 to 10 victory in a thril Gling defensive battle, the Bluejays arc = in for another tough contest. Mandan has a new star in Hudler, forward, who formerly played with ‘Huron, S. Dak.. He kept the Bismarck guards working overtime in the game last week, and is exceptionally bril- ; liant on the floor and under the bas- ket. He was largely responsible for the great showing the Braves made against Roy McLeod's Demons.

Detroit, Feb, 15—(#)—Gerald Am- brose Griffith, the tough one from “City, Ia., meets the test of his tonight when Leo Jack Dempsey showed his passion for swell clothes way back in’ the days when he had few dollars and no title. But the stylishly attired Demp- Sey of today doesn’e go in for the extremes he and his manager, Jack Kearns, went for way back in those days of 1914. They went to a photographer to have the above picture taken. The newsphotographers didn’t take their Pictures for nothing in those days. Dempsey was then showing his fond- hess for sucde-top shoes and it was only in recent years that he lost his fancy for them. Overcoats with detachable fur collars were all the vogue at that time and so were iron hats, but only the real sports fell for the kind of a skimmer Kearns is smiling under, “We were hot dressers at that time,” Dempsey said recently; “even if we didn’t have a buck in the kick we looked like big dough.” ONE-LEGGED MAN REACHES TOP OF MT.

D., Feb. 15.—The title- 'chasing Jackrabbit basketball team, 10 strong, left here today for Ver- milion to engage the University of South Dakota Saturday night in the {game that will probably decide whether the Jackrabbits will top the conference this year. | After the decisive victory of the | Coyotes over Morningside, the squad jand Coach Edmonds vere nonce’ too | Optimistic over the outcome of the )game. Added to this worry is the fact. that Pat Krug, star utility man of the Squad, is just off crutches and will | not be ready for Saturday. Pat tore j Some ligaments in his leg and only |a miracle will enable him to play | again this season. Krug is without }a doubt the best utility court man that ever graced a Jackrabbit team. Practice last night consisted in a | therough drill in defense to stop the University sharpshooters who went wild against Morningside. The re- vamped line-up of the Coyotes looks formidable to Coach Edmonds of the Jackrabbits because every man is a scoring threat. The addition of Crakes at center with Root and Skaro at the forwards presents a strong of- fensive trio and Edmonds spent hours last night teaching his proteges how to stop them. To replace the reserve strength weakened by Krug’s loss, Edmonds has drilled Lowe both at center and guard. Carey, Colby and Morris sup- ply substitutes for the forward jobs. The regulars are all in good shape. Captain Schaefer has recovered from his sickness which bothered him in the North Dakota University tilt last Saturday. Englemann continues to shine in his dual role of center and back guard. The big boy has de- veloped into a wonderful defense for unaer-the-basket shots and is a tow- er of strength in recovering the ball from the bounding board. Edmonds announced today that Nicholson and Hamann would start at the forwards, Englemann at cen- ter, and Schaefer and Herting at the guards. Phantoms Unable To Reach Mercer Snowdrifts Made Automobile Trip for the Game Last Night Impossible | Drifts of snow last night prevented the Bismarck Phantom basketball crew from getting to Mercer to ful- fill their contract of a game with the Mercer Independents. The local team, with its portly manager, Neil O. Churchill, left Bis- marck at 5:30 p. m. yesterday via automobile for the northern city. But they could go no farther than Wilton were back before 8 o'clock. - Fields Is Favored to Beat Baby Joe Gans New York, Feb. 15.—(?)}—Now a welterweight, Jackie Fields, clever Los Angeles uct, renews the feud he began as fe erweight with his fellow-townsman, Baby Joe Gans, in 8 10-round bout in Madison Square Garden tonight. Fields outpointed the negro star in @ close match on the Pacific coast several years ago when both -were fighting in the 126-pound class. They renew their struggle tonight with Fields a full-fledged 147-pounder and Gans a junior welterweight. Perhaps because of his sensational record of the last few months, Fields has been established as an 8 to 5 favorite. W. and J.

Weakened ip morale by double losses to the South Dakota State team the Flickers returned to Grand Forks to discover that Al Letich, star for- ward, will be out of the game for the rest of the season because of scholar- ship.
