They are Wahpeton, Mil- nor, Marmarth, Beach, Mott and La- kota. ‘Wahpeton, in scoring 267 points to their opponents 18 in bagging eight wins, is conceded the unofficial state championship by most critics) who point to Wahpeton’s victories over Fargo, Hankinson and Oakes as an indication of their strength. In addition the Wops conquered Lidgerwood, Casselton, Fergus Falls. Minn., and Breckenridge, Minn., the latter twice. In defeating Fergus Falls, Wahepton amassed approxi- mately twice the points Fargo did in their victory over the Minnesota team. In a game against Casselton, the Richland county team ran wild to score 121 points. Other Impressive Teams Milnor, Marmarth and Mott were impressive in subduing most of the Winning six games out of eight, Mandan high school had a successful | 1930 gridiron season. ‘The Braves were coached by Leon- Byler, of the high school faculty.

The loss of Mullins, who replaced “Galloping Joe” Savoldi when the lat- ter was dismissed from school for his venture into matrimony, was a sad blow to Notre Dame's hopes. | Bismarck Has Good Season Bismarck, unofficial state cham- pions in 1928 and 1929, had its re- markable string of consecutive vic- tories broken during the fall. Until they encountered Fargo on Nov. 1, the Demons had gone undefeated or un- tied for 24 straight games. Also no team had succeeded in scoring on the Capital City aggregation antil Wil- licton accomplished the feat in the geme which marked their 19th con- secutive victory.

Early practice sessions were given al- most entirely to intensive drilling in fundamentals, but with the first game scarcely 10 days ahead, Coach Hays is spending more time on offensive and defensive formations. Fourteen pre-tournament games have been arranged by Athletic Di- rector Roy D. McLeod for the Demons, who will be defending 'the state cham- pionship they won last year when they decisively whipped Grand Forks 29 to 21, Since the schedule was first ar- ranged there has been one more game} schedule gave j added on. ‘The preliminary March 7 as an open date; this has been to March 6, when Bis- marck will play Valley City here.

Lawrence Muggli, Looks Good in One of Guard Positions the proposal to shift the 1930 Notre Dame-Northwestern game from Dyche Stadium to Soldier field. Some lor the committee members may stick |to their opposition to breaking the! on the draft question. All relations between the two rivais groups the American and National Leagues on one hand and the Inicr- national, Pacific Coast, American As- sociation, Western and Three-Eye Leagues on the other—were at a standstill, at least temporarily, and there were no indications their «:‘- ferences could be patched up in :he immediate future. Would Include Stars The majors insist they be given the {right to select or draft ata fixed price players in these five leagues just as they do‘in other miner circuits. They already have the right to draft from the AA Leagues—International, Pacific Coast and American Associa- tion—any player previously in th majors but they want to obtain «i right to include young stars who ne er have reached the big leagues. They backed their demands with a drastic action—complete severance, from Dec. 1, of business relations with the non-draft leagues until they ac- cept the draft. ‘The five leagues affected offered to reopen the question with a vi to possible settlement provided t! majors rescinded this action within 15 days, but replies from Presidents Heydler and Barnard of the Nationa! and American Leagues indicated there was no chance of the majors doing this and the war was on in earnest. Anticipating that there will be no move toward an amicable settlement at the joint major league meeting in New York next week, the non-draft minors planned to confer on ways and means of carrying on without the aid of the majors. The most pressing {problem was the always troublesome question of where first grade players are to be obtained in sufficient quan- tities. It was generally regarded the minors would make no further move toward peace, at least at this time. Majors Demand ‘Protection’ Another of baseball's sore spots crept out at the first session of the 29th annual convention of the Na- tional Association of professional baseball leagues. Branch Rickey, vice president and business manager of the St. Louis Cardinais, largest oper- ators of “chain-store” clubs in the country, told the convention the ma- {jors were ready to come to the aid of those minor leagues who may be running into financial difficulties but that no further moves in that direc- tion could be made unless some further “protection” was given the majors. Rickey. whose club has run into trouble at the office of Commissioner K. M. Landis in some of its compli- cated minor league deals, explained ine thought minor league clubs oper- ated by a major league outfit should be regarded in exactly the same light as clubs owned independently.
