Hays’ squad faces the crucial game of its pre-tournament tilts. The Far- go squad has a series of seven con- secutive victories. The Demons have jpeen undefeated this year and have won most of their games with large scores. ‘ Although the Fargo quint is Tec. | ognized in state basketball circles as one of the most terrific scoring ma- chines of the season, state cage ex- perts pick Bismarck as among those with impressive potentialities. Comparatively the Capital City quint ranks close to the powerful Midgets. Jamestown’s Bluejays, the only team both quints have played this season, was vanquished by both. ‘The Demons held a 15-3 lead at half- time in their game with the Bluejay squad, while Fargo held a 16-12 lead at halftime in their battle with the Jamestown team. Hays has been pointing his team for tournament play while the Mid- gets are said to be near the peak of their season form. The Demons held a two-hour prac- tice Wednesday with defensive for- mations being stressed the most. Hays expects his squad to hold the Midgets to the lowest score they have piled up this season. His combination man-to-man and zone defense is a formation that should bother the Fargo quint. Preparations are being made to handle the largest crowd ever to be assembled for a pre-tournament game. A bigger group of spectators 4s expected to attend the Fargo-Bis- marck classic than were at the De- mon-Brave tilt. Mandan cage fans are expected to be present in larger numbers than at any previous bas- ketball duel this season. ‘The new auditorium will seat 1,600 in the balconies, and approximately | 2,500 will be able to get bleacher! seats. Cage fans who follow state, play will be vitally interested in the | outcome. Hays will use as his starting line-| up Spriggs and Agre at forwards, T at center, and Dohn and Green; He will use Leo Benser | as all cancy left by Finnegan, came ineligible just before the Man- dan-Bismarck game. Hays expressed doubt that George Allen, his other | alternate forward, will be able to| piay in the Friday contest. Allen has been running a fever since Tuesday and probably will not be able to par- ticipate against Fargo. Stanton High Cagers Wallop Beulah, 28-1) (Tribune Special Service) Stanton, N.

It was a game of scientific basket- ball. Both squads were accurate at basket attempts and showed clever passing attacks. The Ellendale quint garnered 15 of their 35 points via the free throw route, while the Phantoms only made four charity tosses. The Dusties and the Phantoms tired rapidly during the game. Both teams had played every night this week. ‘Che Phantoms defeated Good- rich, Harvey, Washburn, and James- town on their opponents’ floors. The Dusties in turn lost one game to Dickinson when they attempted a stalling game, won their final tilt with Dickinson, and won victory in their last two games with the Minot normal by large scores. \ The Ellendale quint is being boomed for their conference cage title this season. They have only lost two games all season. Both games were Jost when they attempted to stall after having a big lead at halftime. Crouse Is High Scorer Crouse, Dusty guard, held individual scoring honors with a total of 19 points. Thornburg, Phantom for- ward, led his team-mates with nine points. Thornburg made four field goals to Crouse’s seven. Crouse sank five free throws out of seven at- tempts, while Thornburg only made one free throw out of three tries. The Phantom cagers garnered fOur points from 10 charity tries. The Ellendale quint made 15 counters out of 26 attempts. Wednesday night’s battle was the hardest contest either team has had this year. Hays opened the scoring with two field goals in rapid succes- sion for the Phantoms, Then Crouse sank a short shot. Heidt retaliated with a sensational shot from near the center of the floor. From this point the score jumped from 4-2 to 6-6, and they concluded the first 10 minutes of play at 10-7. Phantoms Increase Lead In the second period the Phantoms made eight points to their opponents’ five, sending the count to 18-13 to conclude the first half. The Phantom crew continued to hold their lead during the third 10- | minute period but the Dusties nar- |rowed the count to end the third period with the score 26-24. Skillful passing and deliberate shooting raised the Phantom count to 33 in the early minutes of the final period. In the last few minutes of play the Dusties raised their count from 24 to 32. The Phantoms sought retaliation and raised their ante to 36 while the Ellendale quint brought their total to 35. The Phantom guards showed up well during the contest. They forced their opponents to take long shots. The Bismarck quint fouled fre- quently. Geston and Hays each com- mitted four personal fouls and were removed from the game. Remarking on the officiating, Sen D. Slemmons, Dusty coach, said, “It’s the best and fairest refereeing we have had on our trip.” ‘The summary: Phantoms (36 Tpornbure, f .. Schaumberg, f ..

He believes the stands of the mas- sive college stadia are the incubators of this germ and that the spectators are more susceptible to it than the Players or coaches. “Most of Harvard's over-emphasis,” Wood said, “can be found in the stadium and not on the playing field. Graduates and other supporters of the Harvard team are even more dis- turbed about the outcome of a game than the players themselves, most of whom play for the fun of the game.” ‘Wood, a forward passer who ranks with the famed Benny Friedman, has no illusions about football. Though it is Just a game, a source of pleasure to him, he has made an extensive study of it. As a quarterback he knows the coach’s viewpoint ’as well as that of the player. He is convinced neither is seriously affected by so-called over-emphasis, Wood blames the spectators for most, of the game’s irksome features, for the looker-on, he charges, is re- sponsible for the unwholesome fact that college football players compete under a greater mental strain than do members of other sport teams, “The pressure on a player,” he ex- plained, “is greater in football than in any other sport because a gridiron mistake is generally much more costly than an error in baseball or a slip in hockey.” Wood's idea of the football mil- Jennium is a game that provides pleas- ure for the victors and vanquished alike and sat‘sfies every spectator. Besides being one of the most ver- satile athletes Harvard has had in a generation, Wood is also a Phi Beta Kappa. He is a deep student of all sports. > Another source of over-emphasis, he believes, is the colleges that disre- gard the fact that football belongs to the players. Wood cited the so-called progressive institutions that are al- ways eager to expand every new foot- ball idea and have, in the past, forced a large and unwilling majority to fol- low their example. On this minority Wood placed the blame for the great stress that has been laid on spring and pre-season practice. He considers this training unpleasant and un- necessary. The new Crimson football leader is heartily in favor of abolishing spring practice at Harvard, and his only sug- gestion for a general improvement is that all colleges agree on a uniform date to start football practice.

Oles Not Planning To Leave League St. Olaf Not Hurt by Inability to Schedule Another Loop Grid Game St. Paul, Jan. 22.—()—St. Olaf col- lege is not planning to withdraw from the Minnesota college confer- ence if it does not get enough foot- ball games next fall, Dean J. J. ‘Thompson, faculty athletic repre- sentative, said Thursday.
