March 1— After a disastrous second quarter, in which they were outscored 10 to 5, Bismarck high school’s basketball team outplayed their opponents 12 to 3 in the second half to win from Jamestown 23 to 17 here last night. Big Ted Meinhover, Bismarck cen- ter who scored seven field goals, prob- ably was the most effective player to ‘be seen here this season and the game ‘was the best-played and most excit- ing this year.

Purdue should experience little dif- ficulty in defeating Minnesota for the second time of the season, but North- \estern, playing its “out” brand of basketball, might find Chicago troublesome. Northwestern easily de- feated Chicago at the Midway earlier in the season. Michigan will invade Illinois, bent on obtaining revenge for the un-, expected 24 to 18 defeat suffered al Ann Arbor, which upset its chai | pionship plans.

Day, who recently visited Fonseca, said the slugging first baseman “ex- cept for a slight weakness, looks ready to go.” Further careful events in- cluded the reporting of Ken Holloway in fine condition after a recent illness and the capitulation of Willis Hudlin, star hurler, who had been listed as a holdout. Amateur Boxers Work Eight Hours Semi-Finals in Pacific Coast Meet Come Tonight; Bouts Pack Interest Portland, Ore., March 1—()—Eight hours of ring work brought the Pa- cific coast amateur boxing champion- ship tournament to the end of the preliminary bouts here last night and opened the way for the 24 simifinal and final matches tonight. The preliminaries started at 7:30 p. m. and came to an end in the small hours this morning, but in all this time there was hardly an unexciting moment, for the Simon Pures, with their eyes on coast titles, spared neither effort nor blood in their val- | iant efforts to win. Knockouts were sprinkled plenti- fully through the program. All bouts were for three rounds unless other- wise specified by the two judges or ended with knockouts. Bush Abandons Captain System Bill Kamm Will Have Less to Worry About; Six Chisox Still Absent San Antonio, Texas, March 1—(P}— Manager Donie Bush of the Chicago Wie Sox, has made another change ie old order—the Sox this season tt aie no field captain. Bush said such @ functionary is not (necessary, so Bill Kamm, his star third baseman, who served most of last season as field leader, will have that much less to bother about. Yesterday's arrivals included John- ny Watwood, Johnny Kerr, Bill Hun- nefield, and John Clancy, leaving only Smead Jolley, Kamm, Alex Metzler. Shires yet to appear.

The champion of the North Mis- souri Slope conference entered the fourth quarter trailing 8 to 7. But Stocker soon gave the visitors a 9 to 8 advantage and the westerners in- creased this to 15 to 8 beofer the Imps found themselves and ran their count up to 12 with two field goals. Stocker Scored 11 Points Stocker, besides scoring 11 of his team’s 15 points, played a creditable defensive game, his long arms inter- cepting pass after pass from the mid- Imps. The whole Glen Ullin team made use of its advantage in range throughout. Stocker’s specialty for scoring was a lefthanded flip over his head in the general direction of the basket, which he could not see because of his weird position. Four times he took passes from behind over his head and converted them into Points with his strange shot. Eddie Agre, clever guard, kept Bis- marck in the running with his four field goals. Bismarck outplayed the visitors by a wide margin in the first half though their margin at the end of the second quarter wes only 6 to 4. In the sec- ond half the Imps began to slip slow- ly and Glen Ullin had the lead short- ly after the last quarter began. Had the Imps not played in the back court so much in the second half they might have maintained their first half lead and won the game. Visitors Tourney Favorite Glen Ullin is one of the three fa- vorites to win the district tournament at Dickinson next week-end. In a preliminary game the high school freshmen outreached and out- classed the sophomores to win by a 19 to 2 count. Woodmansee, Boulder, and Olson were the heaviest scorers knocked out Dugal, Missoula A. C. in for the victors while Shepard brought the 118-pound class, Villa, of the Yosemite club, Oakland, knocked out Jones, of the Missoula A. C. Both of the victories were won in the first the sophomores their only points with a field goal. The feature game between the Jamestown National Guard five and the Bismarck Phantoms was called off last night when Jamestown failed to reach Bismarck.

Sharkey-Scott Go Most Disastrous Of Boxing Shows Toledo and Shelby Bout Shelby Bouts Finan. ‘cial Failures, but Fights Were Satisfactory BY ALAN GOULD Miami, Fla, March 1.—()—1 baggage and ballyhoo, the pein hosts of Madison Square Garden pre- pared to beat a stragetic retreat to- day from the disastrous scenes where the second battle of the Cocoanut Palms fouled and flopped. There have been more artistic fail- ures than this Scott-Sharkey affair. Tex Rickard had his troubles at To- ledo in 1919 and the boom town of Shelby, Mont., was hard hit by the flop of the Dempsey -Gibbons bout there in the summer of 1923. But ; | these, at least had glamor of a cham- pionship struggle, no matter what the sad tale in the box,office. Redeeming Features Few ‘The balmy setting of this winter’s fistic fiasco had few, if any, redeem- ing features to offset its financial shortcomings. These might have been overlooked with a more magnificent gesture by the Garden corporation had Jack Sharkey achieved a convinc- ing and decisive victory over Phil Scott, the pallid Britton who seems inflicted with chronic difficulty in the right sciatic nerve. As it was, the battle added no lustre to heavy- weight history. Scott, all hands concede, no matter whether they think the Briton was fouled, has been effectually removed as a heavyweight title contender. Thus the field is at least reduced by one in the wearisome and unsatisfac- tory series of elimination bouts since the retircment of Gene Tunney in the Sharkey, the main American hope, though a three-round victory over Scott under extraordinary circum- stances, remains an uncertain figure as a fighter of apparent great possi- bilities but distinctly erratic tenden- cies in the ring.
