The Maroons lead the International group with 49 points but the Canadiens are only four points behind and Ottawa five.

The pitchers have developed spring wildness. Babe Herman, the club's leading batsman of 1929, has been a holdout. There are “ifs” to almost every angle of the club's organization but Uncle Robbie has not the slight- est doubt he will solve the existing problems. ‘ The most interesting prospect is the sensational bid for regular jobs of keystone youngsters, Neal (Mickey) Finn and Gordon Slade, purchased for around $60,000 from the missions of the Pacific Coast League. Finn is @ second baseman and Slade a short- stop. Walter Gilbert, the former Atlanta product who made good last year at third base, is a fixture. Bissonette will hold down first, if he is in shape. Otherwise one of the lift - fielders, Rube Bressler or Harvey Hendrick, will be assigned for temporary infield duty. Johnny Frederick is a centerfield | certainty and Herman, when he re- ports, will patrol right-field. The big hitter. offered $15,000, has demanded $25,000 on the strength of his mark of .354 at bat in 1929, Recently he wrote Uncle Robbie he would “holdout, if it takes all summer.” .

At the end of the third quarter in that spectacular championship con- test, Coach Leonard C. McMahan’s five had a comfortable 16 to 9 lead. Closing Second Hectic But in the final canto the Braves, almost fatally, played what they thought was a stalling game. It wasn't. The Aces from the south outscored them in that last session 6 to 0. With only 22 seconds left, ed to within a point of their victors. In those closing seconds, however, they were able to get but three long isa at the hoop, ‘and none rang e. Ashley started out with determina- tion, scoring three points before Man- dan could muster its scoring strength. Then Mandan came into its own to Score three points and the count was knotted when the timer shot his first blank cartridge. The second quarter was disastrous for the southerners. Mandan enjoyed one of those “hot” Spells, and three beautiful and suc- cessful long range shots by Lloyd Dietrich, Wilfred Lillibridge, and Lloyd Spielman in succession enabled Mandan to leave the floor between halves with a 12 to 7 margin. Continuing their good game, Man- dan piled up @ 16 to 9 advantage in | the third canto. Then came that.ex- citing closing period. Fred Swanson, forward, probably {did more than any other - Brave to } keep Mandan in the lead. The plucky Brave made five of seven free throw chances good, which is an exception- ally good average in a game of such import.

Ashley lost the contest mainly be- Though they outscored Mandan 5 to 4 from the field and counted five of seven free throw chances, they were beaten in the free throw department. {Given 12 opportunies at..the gift stripe, the Braves made eight of them good. Schulz Accurate Shot Floor play honors was divided among Walter Doerr, Howard, For- rest, and Theodore Kessel for Ashley, but it remained for the sharp-shoot- ing guard, Ted’Schulz, to take scoring honors with two difficult field goals and a free throw. The Aces commit- ted but nine fouls to eight for their conquerors, but, beCause. several were two-shot fouls, the Braves were given free throw line. Nosing out New Salem 20 to 18, Na- poleon won third place in the tour- nament while Linton beat Flasher 24 to 16 to win the consolation branch.
