zt MANDAN NEWS :-: Killdeer Beats Balfour 15-11 For State Tournament Right TWo Teams Battled in Mandan Last Night for Seventh District Title THOMAS IS STRONG PLAYER Victors Had Lead Practically All - the Way, Though Losers Tied Score Once Kilideer consolidated high school’s pasektball team left Mandan today to compete in the state tournament at Valley City Thursday and Friday following its 15 to 11 victory over Bal- + four at the state training school gym- nasium last night. ‘The two teams, both champions in subdistrict tournaments, met last night for the title in the seventh dis- trict. Killdeer Never Behind Killdeer’s rangy team was never be- hind in that hard game last night which was featured by long passes and general roughness, though Balfour knotted the count at 7-all early in the third quarter. Though his team lost the game, J. ‘Thomas, rangy Balfour center, was the nicest performer on the floor and the Balfour crowd remained in the game up until the closing minutes mainly through his efforts. The lanky one scored four field goals and a free throw for 9 of his team’s 11 counters. Besides this he played a nice floor and defensive game. Lawhead, forward, and John Ross, guard, were the best men for the vic- tors. ‘The forward scored the first six points his team made and Ross ap- peared the backbone of the club tour- nament throughout the fracas. Bruce Johnson, Killdeer center, committed three personal fouls in the first half and was forced to play care- ‘fully, and less effectively, in the last two herman te ere eat ae husky Balfour |, also was is portant cog in the losing machine. Many times he intercepted Killdeer passes and rarely failed to take re- bounds from the bankboard when Killdeerites missed. The two teams started out at a fast clip, maintaining this surprising- ly fast pace throughout the game. Though both teams took several shots at the hoop, only two free throws were made during the first quarter. Lawhead made them both to give Killdeer a 2 to 0 lead. In the second quarter Lawhead dropped in two field goals and Ross a free throw while ‘Thomas was able to céunt only one field goal and a free toss. The win- ners left the floor for the intermission with a 7 to 3 advantage. Balfour Ties Score Coming back strong, Balfour played. Killdeer off their feet for short pe- riod and knotted the count at 7 to 7. The victors then settled down, how-. ever, and had a 10 to 7 margin as the. last canto opened. Dufing the third quarter, Sund, Killdeer forward, made one of the longest field goals ever made on the training school floor. Hej} Js apparently passed to a team-mate under the basket, a pass more than half the length of the court, and the ball zipped through the hoop. Killdeer guarded its advantage jealously in the closing session but the game continued at the same speedy clip, with long passes filling the air.

Mandan Makes Claim To Cage Tournament After Flood Rumors Feuds are as common in North Da- kota as in Kentucky but where the hillybillys say it with lead, North Da- kotans say it with basketballs.

Z., Mar. 12.—(@)—The possibility that Rear Admiral Richard Byrd will take another expedition into the Antarctic was foreseen today. Admiral 'Byrd in an iriterview said, “If I were to say what I am going to do next, my remarks would‘cause a Although the intrepid explorer, who returned Monday after more than a year at the bottom of the world dur- ing which he flew over the South Pole, declined to comment himself fur- ther, the trend of events here and feeling among his party indicate he hopes to return to the Antarctic to make further explorations east of the sea. Although Norwegian and other ex- Peditions are now working west of the sea, it was pointed out there are still vast terfitories unexplored, notably between the bay of Whales and De- ception island, the later the base of Sir Hubert Wilkins in his Antarctic lights. “I feel under obligations to those who have donated material to this expedition,” Byrd said, “and all un- used gear will be returned to them.” Although most members of his ex- Pedition have left Dunedin on trips for fishing or hunting, Admiral Byrd is rusifed with work here in an en- deavor to start’ for home next Wed- nesday or Thursday. The City of New York is on the dry dock and the steamer Eleanor Bolling goes on to- morrow for refitting. When leaving the British warship Laburumum, after an inspection tour, Byrd received a thirteen gun salute, his first admiral’s salute since his Promotion by his country. The government today granted Byrd and his party free travel over railroads. Dr. Lawrence Gould, geol- ogist of the expedition, said discovery of coal on Mount Nansen had con- vinced him the Antarctic until com- paratively recent years had either a tropical or subtropical climate. Dr. Gould said he had determined further that the great barrier was a floating sea of ice anchored to islands and mountains; that-the Ross sea extend- ed many more miles eastward than first supposed and that the Queen Maude range of mountains was the greatest in the world, and unlike either the Himalayas or the Andes. }It is of the fault block type, he said, and on them were found two of the world’s largest glaciers.
