Bismarck and Mandan Meet Tuesday, March 4 - NEWDATEWIL GWE | BRAVES EXTRA REST BEFORE DSTI Teams Enter Sixth Dis- ict Tournament Here, McLeod Announces GARRISON NOT CERTAINTY Lester Dohn Probably Will Play in Jamestown and Valley City Games Following the third change in date, narck and Mandan high school asketball teams will meet in their ‘cond game of the season next Tues- day evening, March 4, at 8:30 o'clock, it was announced definitely today by Roy D. McLeod, athletic director of Bismarck high school. The date was changed from March 5 to March 4 to give Mandan an ad- ditional day's rest before the district tournament, which is scheduled for| March 6 and 7. The game will be played in the state training school gymnasium, Mandan. Eight teams will compete in the Sixth district tournament here March 7 and 8, it was announced today by Coach McLeod. They are Bismarck, Coleharbor. Garrison, McClusky, Tur- tle Lake, Underwood, Washburn, and Wilton, All but Garrison have defi- nitely decided to enter and the local athletic director believes Garrison is certain to enter. Drawings Come Soon Drawing will be made in the near future, Mr. McLeod said. Two games will be played Friday afternoon, at 3:30 and 4:30 o'clock, two games Fri- day evening, 7:30 and 8:30 o'clock, two games Saturday morning, 10 and 11 o'clock, and the two final games Saturday evening, 7:30 and 8:30 o'clock, at the Bismarck high school gymnasium. ‘William Gussner, former Jamestown College star, and Lawrence Kinn, for- mer University of North Dakota per- former, will be officials of the tourna- ment. ‘The winner of the Bismarck tourna- ment will meet the winner of the Mandan tournament the following week-end for regional honors and the right to compete with seven other regional champions in the state tour- nament, which will be held at the state training school, Mandan, March 21 and 22. Lester “Dynamo” Dohn, Bismarck forward who was scholastically in- eligible to play last week-end, is ex- pected to clear up the situation that he might play with the Demons against Jamestown Friday night and Valley City Saturday night on their week-end trip. The dynamo was un- able to play against Dickinson last Saturday night at the western city. Spriggs Seems Im; Dohn’s place was taken in com- mendable fashion by Johny Spriggs, McLeod said, and the team is improv- ing slowly but surely. Harold Tait, other regular forward, Big Ted Mein- hover, center, and Captain John O'Hare and Earl Hoffman, guards, are in good shape, the mentor said. He thinks his team will trim James- town hand! diction on the outcome of the game at Valley City. ‘The mentor predicts a fight for places 6, 7 and 8, on his Demon tour- nament squads. At present it looks as though Johnny Spriggs has a cor- ner on No. 6. But there are several after the seventh and eighth sweat suits. Among the contenders are Frank Smith, Russell Enge, Leo Ben- ser, and Eddie Agre. Mac probably will not know who will make up his squad until shortly before the tour- ney. ht Facts | Asuoclniod Proms) fontn—Jack Sharkey, Bose American Argentina, Clevelana.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1 8 Erratic Northwestern Sharp- shooters Seem Back in Winning Stride Again MICHIGAN BEAT CHICAGO Wolverines Will Have Chance to Tie Boilermakers Should Wildcats Win Chicago, Feb. 26—()—Purdue’s un- defeated Big Ten basketball record tonight will be the target of North- western's erratic sharpshooters, at Lafayette. Jolted out of the race by three de- feats in one week, after a fine start, Northwestern was out to do every- thing possible to place the league leaders in an embarrassing position. | A defeat at the hands of Northwest- ern would leave Purdue in a spot where the Michigan game Monday night at Ann Arbor, would be crucial. Michigan, which last night scored its second victory of the season over Chicago, rates and even chance of trip- ping Purdue and gaining a tie for first place, should the Boilermakers also bow to Northwestern. The Wolverines found Chicago no more difficult than when they won at Chicago three weeks ago. With Joe Truskowski leading the way with 12 points, Michigan turned in a 30 to 15 decision, and went back into a tie with Wisconsin for second place, at six victories and two defeats. ‘| Carey Teaches New & Men How to Steal Sack |: Paso Robles, Cal.

But “Gabby,” a big fellow with grit! and a determination to come back,| doctored and trained all winter and} now asserts his salary wing is “right.” Manager McCarthy, still a little] jfkeptical, stepped on second base during one of the early practice ses- |Slons to get first hand information on the much discussed arm. After stop-| ping half a dozen throws, he hum-| |bled soemthing about a “thin glove” | and appeared pleased. Trainer Andy Lotshaw, who moaned pei as did Hartnett last spring ughout the championship season, ‘is optimistic, “His arm is as good as ever,” Lot- shaw said. “If there is anything rong with it now, I don't know the usiness I have been in all these years. |Gabby's arm is set again.” |, One worry the Cubs still have is that Hartnett, eager. to impress his |mates with his comeback, will throw his arm limp. That was the cause of his trouble last spring. His first practice saw him burning ‘em down |to second and it wasn’t long before | wing was broken. | Championship Hopes Bright i Hartnett’s return to form and duty |4s about the only spark the Cubs be- leve they require, next to a good left handed pitcher to make a Tomp to another championship. There are two or three members of the Cubs’ pitching staff who be- | eve they are certain of a better year | with the big fellow back of the plate. | “I've learned my lesson about |throwing them too hard early and I'm all set or a long life in the majors,” Hartnett said. “I know there are a few skeptics, but my arm is there.” With that he shot a perfect throw to second, as emphasis.

On the other hand, an extraor- dinarily attractive card of five inter- national bouts has drawn a big influx of the faithful. The semi-final joust between the 230-pound Argentine, Victorio Campolo, and rubbery John Risko, Cleveland, has aroused keen Speculation, with the South American ruling a slight favorite. Other enter- it is expected from the bouts pitting Tommy Loughran, former light heavyweight champion, against the hard-hitting Belgian, Pierre Charles, and Jimmy Maloney, the Boston vet- eran, against free-swinging Moise Bonquillon of France. There are at least a half dozen Present and former contenders for high heavyweight honors on the card, although the principal significance is attached to the main bout. The Shar- key-Scott match is one of the last of the long-drawn-out series of heavy- | weight eliminations, the winner of} which is slated to box Max Schmeling: of Germany for the world’s champion- ship at New York in June. $300,000 Gate Expected The prospects today were that a crowd of between 25,000 and 35,000 will pay upward of $200,000 to wit- hess the show. Frank J. Bruen, gen- eral manager of Madison Square Garden, and his box office experts Were optimistic that the gate would Pass $300,000. This would insure a sub- stantial profit. There was no chance whatever of a sell-out, which would mean an attendance of 52,000 and receipts of more than $500,000. Last year’s hsow drew 30,000 fans and a gate of $407,000. Speculation over the outcome of the main bout was centered principally upon how'long it will take Sharkey to win, The odds on the American, fol- lowing the completion of the long training grinds, seemed inclined to rise, instead of shorten. A three-to- one. favorite right along, Sharkey ap- Peared to enter the ring at five to one, with no takers. Most of the Wagering has been on the length of the fight, with a consensus favoring about four as the limit.
