" PAGE FIGHT - ay % DEMONS EXPECTED 10 WALLOP MAGIC (QTY HERE TONGHT Minot Bewildered by Dazzling Play of Braves in Open- ing Quarter | MINOT FIGHTS THROUGHOUT Coach Harley Robertson Makes Nine Substitutjons to Stop Scoring Tide | ‘ Bismarck will face Minot :> 8 * o’clgck tonight, it was announced by Seticiats this morning. A preliminary game begins at 7:15 o'clock. The Demons are expected to win handily from th> Magician crew, which was defeated 39 to 8 at Mandan last night. A valiant but inexperienced Minot . high school cage team found itself in too fast company at Mandan last night and dropped a contest to the fast Mandan Braves. The score was 39 to 8 The Braves bewildered Harley Rob- citson’s Magicians with a dazzling burst of speed in the opening canto and kept their opponents in the same ‘state of mind throughout the remain- der of the contest. All Over Court The Brave warriors were all over the court both on offensive and de- fensive, pivoting, passing, and shoot- ing like veterans, while Minot, though willing to fight, had the ball little of * the time, passed raggedly, and gave " a miserable exhibition of shooting. © From the opening whistle, when Man- lau scored three field goals and a * free throw in rapid succession, it was evident that the northmen would be * put to a humiliating massacre. But Minot never- ceased fighting, and Harley Robertson made numer- ous substitutions in a vain effort to stop the Mandan scoring tide. Lon- berg and Geist were the only men who showed any power in the game for Minot, and they did not show up until. the. closing minutes when a sub- stitute Mandan outfit relaxed. Captain Lonberg took many shots at the hoop, especially in the last santo, but he succeeded in making but ‘two field goals. He was high scorer,.for the invaders. Geist, in- serted toward the end of the first quarter, scored two free throws and Vandersluis completed Minot's scor- ing in the last half with a field goal. Vandersluis Worked Hard Vandersluis, the only Magician to play‘the full game, fought furiously throughout but missed many setups because he was too eager to shoot uickly. pn piled up a lead of 7 to 2 et the end of the quarter. This lead was swelled to 20 to 4 at the half and 45 to 6 at the end of the third quarter. Mandan counted 17 field goals to three for Minot. Hudler and Russell, forwards, Arthur, center, and Steph- ens and Helbling, guards, were the - best floor men and heaviest scorers _ of the 10 men which Coach Leonard McMahan used on his Mandan out- p ti Hudler and Russell each, scored four lield goals and a free toss; Stephens counted three field goals; Helbling zounted twice from the floor and twice from the gift line; and Arthur counted two field goals. Dietrich and Lillibridge each scored once from the field and McDonald counted on a free toss, Stephens left the game in the last quarter with an injury to his knee. It was not serious.

Wisconsin, a lap ahead of its ri- vals with seven victories and one de- feat, invades the lair of Northwest- ern’s wildcats, while Michigan, which is in tentative third place with two setbacks in eight games, will at- tempt to stem the invasion of Iowa’s rangy team at Ann Arbor. Purdue, which sailed into second place last night by routing Ohio state 39 to 2: at Columbus, will be idle and hop- ing for upsets. The other conference skirmishes, Illinois at Indiana and Minnesota at Chicago, involve nothing of great importance excépt Illinois’ hopes of winning a first division berth. Min- 'nesota and Chicago are contenders for the cellar position. clear the scrambled championship race tonight. The Wolverines whipped Towa, 36 to 25 Jan. 12. Ever since the Wolverines returned jto the hardwoods after their semes- ter examinations, they have been a trifle wobbly, losing two games out of four. Iowa dropped out of the [race by falling before Minnesota, 22 ite 37 Monday night. The Hawks invariably play a weak game and then a strong one and to- night may be the occasion-for an- other powerful attack. Coach George Veenker of Michigan may insert Kanitz into Orwig’s place at guard for the game. Wisconsin gave Northwestern a sound whipping, 87 to 23 at Madi- son Monday night, but even its coach, Walter Meanwell, is appre- ‘hensive about tonight’s battle.

For 10 years, the man mauler of Manassa has been the greatest draw- ing card in the history of the ring. He is still that and one of the strong currents is tugging in the direction of more and bigger fisticuffs. Jack Getting Weary But the other current, wearing as the waves on the Miami Beach sands, is hauling him steadily along the | course of his latest triumph—the suc- cessful promotion of Jack Sharkey’s punch party with young Stribling, the Georgia slasher, that at first seemed doomed to failure. Now that it is a success, with a profit of at least $50,- 000 assured before the leather slizgers step into the ring at Flamingo park next Wednesday night, the betting is “six,.two and even” that Dempsey will handle his fights in the future from outside the ropes. The hustlitig Dempsey thinks now that he never will fight again even though Tex Rickard did announce just before his death that Jack would take his second comeback fling next summer at the heavyweight crown he lost to Gene Tunney three years ago. He doesn’t think so now but the big restless fellow is notoriously inconsist- ent in his plans. He is capable of changing them entirely a half dozen times a day. - Will Make Announcement “As soon as this fight is over,” he said today, “I'll have something to announce one way or another. I want to sit down and think it all over. Right now I'm not keen to fight again but you know how I am. I may be starting training for a fight next weck at this time. “Promoting, I think, is right down my alley. ¥'m worlsing with the peo- ple I like, the- situations and the game I like, and I’m happy doing it. ond Half After Trailing by 14 to 22 Second Place in Loop * Conference Grand Forks, Feb. 23.—(#)— The University of North Dakota basket- ball quint fought off a second-period rally and defeated the North Dakota DEADLY SHOOTING OF HAHN LEADS BISON OUTFIT Victory Gives University Tie for SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1929 Story of Lee Cavanagh-Russie Leroy 10-Round Fight Told in Gothic Type TICKET SALES START SOON Women ‘Will Have Seats in Reserved Section; 1,500 Fans Are Expected .

President Clark Griffith has taken the band off his bankroll in an un- precedented manner since the 1928 race ended, and the rookies who will try to convince Manager Walter Johnson that they are big leaguers carry price tags totaling $209,250. This, of course, is exclusive of the five players, three of them regulars, that Griffith sent to Boston for Buddy Myers, which represented a invested in baseball “ivory” sizable financial deal. All but three of the rookies—Pitcher Cantrell, Infielder Yoter and Out- fielder Spencer Harris—have been purchased outright at a cost of $65,000 and even should one or all of this trio be returned it will cost the Na- tionals something for the privilege of looking them over. The new material that will parade for Manager Johnson and their mar- ket rating lists as follows: Pitchers Cantrell (Baltimore) Liska (Minneapolis) McCullough (Toledo) Weaver (Chattanooga) Glazner (Mobile) .
