Washburn Wallops Phant Ray Gillson May Trot Like Camel But He’s Clever Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 30— “Honest Hutch” Gillson, the left- handed University depot agent, is at the same time the most eccentric, the most awkward, and the most colorful basketball player North Dakota has had for some years. When Red Blakely made his debut at North Dakota State he introduced @ one-armed right handed shot that was both effective and unguardable. Red was wont to dribble up to a guard and as the latter covered him closely he would dexterously run the ball out on his right palm, looping in toward the basket much after the fashion of a hook-pass, minus the final follow-through. Blakely Was Master This shot helped make Blakely and also assisted his scoring record. Since Blakely’s time there have been play- ers in the North Central conference who have used this shot but not gracefully or effectively. But now Mr. Gill- son has arrived st {from Eau Claire, Wis. with a one- hander that is just as good as Blakely’s and even more col- orful for Ray does it with his left han id. Gillson has never been accused of winning any beauty prizes. Neither will that accusation ever 1ULSON “Honest Hutch” carries the same: frame and map he now disports. One sometimes hears this said of a per- son, “My, he has an honest face.” This, you can always wager, is apt to imply that the person in question is not a pippin or words to the same ef- fect. Perhaps that is why they call him “Honest Hutch.” Runs Like a Camel Ray is 6 feet 1 inch tall, and pecul- iarly set together. On the basketball court he runs like a camel, with his head bobbing up and down, and @ sort of a hump to his back. While Gillson’s antics on the floor may bring a smile, Coach Clem Letich feels that the angular southpaw is his Most dangerous passer—to the oppo- sition. The Honest One can hook the ball from any position or shoot stand- ing or sitting down. Gillson is one of the most popular boys on the campus and earns his way through school by running the University depot for the Great North- ern railway.

Jan. 30.—(#)—The death of Dan Daly, 60, featherweight fighter of four decades ago, in a St. Louis -hospital yesterday, recalled to the fathers and grand-fathers of present day Omaha fight fans his memorable 91 round draw with Tom- my White here in 1890. The fight, held here on Dec. 7, 1890, is in the record books as the second longest in history. In those days it was considered more or less of a disgrace if the bat- tle did not end in a knockout victory for one or other of moustached com- batants. Accordingly, when, at the end of the 91st round the referee de- cided that the two gladiators were too weak to continue, he called the fight a draw, and each fighter was ‘rosea use it had not gone the During the fight the hands of both were broken and each was so badly bruised that weeks were required for recuperation. Should sport writers present have attempted a blow by blow description of the encounter, the product would have read like a detailed chronicle of the hundred years war. Each battler received $200 as his share of the $500 purse after the $100 in fines had been deducted—which, to drag out the rapid calculator, netted each approximately $2.19 per pound.

The Murphy boys—both playing at center, both giants, and both ranked among the outstanding basketball players of the country—will lead their teams in the standout game of the western season. Not only will Loyola be battling for victory over a high ranking foe, But the Ramblers will be fighting to ex- tend their remarkable string of tri- umphs to 35 straight. Included in the record are victories over Montana ‘State college and Butler, both con- querors.of Purdue this season. The Montana State and Butler setbacks, however, were suffered before the Boilermakers attained the form that imoved them to the top of the West- ern Conference heap. ‘The contest will bring together two widely different styles of basketball. Purdue will stick to its driving offense and man to man defense, seeking Plenty of shots. Loyola has perfected the zone defense and stalling offense to a point where opponents have been able to do no better than come close Since late in the season of 1928, Loyola has scored 952 points, to 544 for opponents, during its current win- ning streak—an average of 28 to 16. Two other games will fill out the Big Nine card for the week. Tomor- row night Michigan will seek its sec- ond victory of the week in meeting Chicago at Chicago, and Ohio State will seek its second straight over Min- nesota, at Minneaopolis Saturday ELGIN PVE BEATS CARSON BASKETEERS Griffin and Werre Lead Strong Attack; Detloff Best Car- son Performer (Tribune Special Service) Elgin, N.
