Height and neat ball handling were Fargo’s biggest advantages. The rangy Midget quint showed a polish- ed defense that utilized their height to the best possible advantage. The Demons presented a good defense commiting only six fouls during the contest, but their shooting was con- sistently inaccurate. Set-ups were handed the Bismarck cagers but they were unable to use them. The Demons managed to garner only four field goals during the entire game. Their free throws were equally as bad. Out of nine attempts the Bis- marck five garnered only one point. The Fargo quint had a similar num- ber of trics but they counted four points from the foul line. Large Crowd Sees Battle Approximately 2,000 people wit- nessed the Fargo victory in the new World War Memorial building. Lester Dohn, Demon guard, a bulwark on offense and defense. He held Lyle Fisher, tall Midget for- ward to four field goals. Fisher in all previous contests has averaged more than 20 points each game. Dohn besides checking the dangerous Fish- er in his scoring attempts, garnered four points for the Demon squad. Eddie Agre, “mitey,” speedy Demon forward, led the Demons in scoring with two field goals and one charity Loss. Agre, the smallest man on the floor, time after time took the ball away from his taller opponents. He proved. an elusive shadow to the tall Midget squad. But he heaved his chances . Wildly at the backboard when he shot. Fargo Gets Lead Fargo gained the lead after the first minute of play and ended the first period at the long end of a 8-4 count. The Midgets held the Bis- marck cagers scoreless during the sec- end quarter to lead 14-4. The Fargo quint raised their ante to lead 30-9 at the conclusion of the third period. The Midget quint made only four points during the final period but held the Demons scoreless during the last eight minutes of play. Fisher opened the scoring for Far- go 45 seconds after the game started. Rasmussen followed with another basket a minute later. Fisher sank another and Dohn retaliated with a long shot that gave Bismarck its first counter. Rasmussen sank a free throw. Agre followed with the last field goal the Demons were able to garner until late during the third period. Then Rasmussen made a free throw that ended the first half. Dohn Scores Dohn started the second half with @ field goal. He was fouled while shooting and given a free throw but hhe missed. Rasmussen was fouled by Agre. He made the free throw. Then in quick succession Aamoth and Agre dropped in shots. Shortly after Agre made his field goal Spriggs dribbled down the floor with Char- bonneau following him. Spriggs lost his stride and missed a set-up. With three minutes left to play in the third quarter Olson, Fisher, and ‘Charbonneau dropped in counters. In the final period Charbonneau and Ol- son tossed in the last four points of the game with two field goals. Hebron Wins Preliminary Hebron’s Brickmakers defeated the Bismarck Imps 19-12 in the prelimin- ary game. Hebron presented an accurate shooting team. The first four shots they attempted resulted in four field goals. The visitors obtained an early Jead of 12-0. During the second quar- ter the Imps held the Hebron quint scoreless and managed to obtain two field goals. The Brickmakers raised their ante to 14 while the Imps brought their total to 8. The score in the final period jumped from 9-14 to 11-19 and final- ly ended with a count of 12-19. Beyer, Hebron forward, took indi- vidual scoring honors with six points. ‘The summaries: Bismarck (9)— FG Ww z D, Iverson, f Totals...

The Chicagoa! Allen Hall and Arthur Thurnblad, and the veteran Otto Reiselt of Philadelphia, cham- pion in 1927, were the pacemakers. Layton, back with a record-breaking game after a setback in his first start Monday night, rested in fourth place with two victories and one defeat. The other four challengers, with from two to four losses each, appeared definite- ly out of the championship running. Layton stood out as the one man to beat for the title he had held without interruption since 1928. In capturing his second straight game Friday night he crushed Dave Jacobs cf St. Louis, 50 to 3, in 31 innings. It was the most decisive defeat ever turned in at a national or world’s three-cushion tournament and came within one of tying the record scored by Willie Hoppe in an American League game at New York in 1927 when he van- quished Harry Wakefield, 50 to 2. Thurnblad won his third game Fri- day, 50 to 45, in 66 innings after a hard, long duel with Charles Jordan of Los Angeles, western champion. Reiselt won his third game from Tiff Denton, Kansas City, 50 to 42, in 42 innings. Hall was idle Friday. The average time of contact of a driver and a golf ball is estimated at 0006 of a second.

But there is always the unex- pected and to face these problems, a Player must always keep alert and read,” the hard rock of Alabama's line explained. Sington, prominent in campus ac- tivities, a star in basketball and a Phi; Beta Kappa scholar, thinks the men- tal requirements of the game aid in charocler building. He is studying jaw, “The average fan doesn’t realize the large part the mental side of football does play in the upbuilding of char- acter,” he said. “Football has taught me to play clean, live clean and be a good sport, win or lose.” Freddie doesn’t agree with those who contend football is over-empha- “A game that teaches so many good and important traits to American young men cannot be emphasized too much,” he remarked. Glenn Edwards, Washington State's 235- pound tackle and Bobby Dodd, Tennessee's briliant quarterback, are rated by Sington as the best players Fa 7 he faced in 1930. Oakes Named Grid Coach at Montana Missoula, Mont., Jan, 24—(P)—Se- lection of B. F. Oakes, line coach at the University of Nebraska, as head football coach of the University of Montana, was announced here Fri- day night by President C. H. Clapp. Terms of the contract were not an- nounced. Oakes succeeds Major Frank W. Milburn, who was called back to regular army service after coaching here for five years. Oakes played tackle on the Uni- versity of Illinois eleven during his college career and was a member of its Big Ten conference championship team of 1923. * After graduating in 1924, Oakes be- came assistant coach at the Univer- sity of Tennessee. He took up line coaching duties at Nebraska in 1926. Towa Bowler Scores 2,079 in All-Events Des Moines, Ia., Jan. 24—()—Of- ficials Saturday checked the 2,079 all- events total made by Harold Mapes, diminutive Des Moines bowler, in the Iowa state tournament here in the belief the mark may constitute a world’s record. As it is, Mapes’ all-events score and his 740 tally in the singles Friday toppled state bowling records of more than 10 years standing. Tut AGREE wit Yous THAT HES AS ALL- AMERICAN “TACKLE, “TH?

D., Jan. 24—(P}— North Dakota State college was held to four field goals Friday night as South Dakota university raced to a briliant 27 to 14 victory. The South Dakotans placed a re- vised lineup on the floor and present- ed a defense that balked the Bison tossers. Nordstrom, Fairhead and May tried desperately to penetrate the Coyotes’ defense, but were held to one field goal each. Nordstrom added three free throws to the Bison score sheet. With a new center and guard in the lineup, the Coyotes opened with a fast breaking offense that netted nine points before the Bison scored: At half time, South Dakota held a 14 to 7 lead. Weir replaced May at center on two different occasions and was able to get but one field goal and a gift toss. ‘The guarding of McKay held South Dakota’s scoring ace, Adkins in check, but the Coyote offense continued to function around Root and Buck. The North Dakotans went to Sioux City immediately following the game, where they are to meet Morningside college Saturday night to complete their sweep of the southern end of the North Central Conference. ‘The summary: N.

Referee, Purple Cagers to Meet Ohio State Chicago Clashes With Michigan Quint in Saturday Big_ Ten Contests lesnocuococan Soussusssuus legen 1 1 lighland Park, Chicago, Jan. 24—(#)—Northwest- ern and Chicago Saturday night must prove their right to keep at the head of the Big Ten basketball champion- ship parade. Chicago, victorious by a single point in each of its first two games against Indiana and Minnesota, faces Michi- gan’s thrice-defeated but dangerous team here while Northwestern, the technical pacemaker of the race with three straight triumphs, tackles Ohio State’s up and coming team at Evans- ton, Each team will have an opportun- ity of gaining exclusive rights to first place, provided the other loses, as they are the only undefeated entries. Chicago appears to have the hardest struggle. The Maroons’ defense has been wobbly and Michigan has one of the highest scoring combinations in the race despite its loss of three out of five contests. Ohio State, which toppled Michigan last week, promises to extend Northwestern. ‘Wisconsin will tackle Tlinois’ weak team at Madison in tonight’s third Big Ten game. The Badgers defeat- ed the Iini, 12 to 9, at Champaign January 5, and were favored to re- peat. The game will be the last for Ed Chmielewski, Wisconsin's star guard and co-captain who will be graduated in mid-year. His loss will be a staggering one for the already —losers of three staggered games out of five. f Fights Last Night ; | Fights Last Night (By the Associated Press) London, Chicago (8).

A crowd of 6,000 watched Ernie Schaaf, burly Boston heavyweight, outpoint Jimmy Braddock of Jersey City in a slow bout Friday night and brought the unofficial average at- tendance for the last five Garden boxing shows to 7,500. ‘ The three National Hockey League games play at the Garden each week draw an average of about 10,000; more than 20,000 packed themselves into the Eighth Avenue arena to see a wrestling bout, and 16,000 paid their way in to see three college basketball games last Monday night. Certainly the Schaaf-Braddock match did little to boom trade for the boxing business. For eight rounds the spectators alternately yawned and booed as the rival heavyweights hauled and tugged dt each other without doing much damage. It was not until the ninth round that the boys opened up. Schaaf, who had exhibited great respect for the famed dynamite in Braddock’s right hand, abandoned his cautious tactics and traded punches fearlessly. Braddock won that round but Schaaf belted him about the body unmerci- fully in the tenth and won a split de- cision. The referee and one judge cast ballots for Schaaf and the other’ judge for Braddock. The Associated Press score card, however, showed seven rounds for Schaaf and three for deck. weights, 8 180%.

Bat Battalino Loses Decision tc Eddie Shea in Disappoint- ing Exhibition Chicago, Jan. 24.—(?)—Jack Kid Berg of London sat tighter than ever on his junior welterweight throne Saturday while Bat Battalino, king of the featherweights, felt his scepter slipping. The champions fought in the twin feature bouts at the Chicago stadium Friday night and the fortune of choice smiled on them. Berg, who staked his crown, won ‘decision over Goldie Hess of Los Angeles after 10 furious rounds that had the crowd of 12,896 spectators cheering from start to finish. Battalino, who risked nothing but his reputation, dropped @ decision over the same distance to Eddie Shes, pride of Chicago's west side, after a disappointing exhibition. Berg’s match with the freckle- faced challenger from the Pacific coast was as pleasing as the Bat- talino-Shea fight was disappointing Suddenly reversing his usual slow- starting tactics, Hess swarmed all over Berg in the first round, battereo him with long swinging lefts and .tight uppercuts and dazed the Briton. But the champion weathered the stirring attack and, except for an- other Hess assault in the eighth round, he handed the challenger a neat shellacking. Boring in with a two fisted shelling, Berg took the fight out and away from Hess ex- cept at intervals, He flayed Hess with rights and lefts and punished him unmercifully during the infight- ing, at which he excelled easily. Berg weighed 138% pounds to Hess’. 137%. A bad eye, tightly closed during the final four rounds, helped take the steam out of Battalino. Both fought a cautious fight as the crowd booed their efforts, opening up in spurts only. Shea crowded in close to land his most damaging punches while Battalino sparred with long dis- tance punches. The Associated Press score sheet showed Shea won five rounds and Battalino two with three even. Shea weighed 127% pounds, while Battalino carefully weighed in at 130, four pounds over the feather- weight limit. Valley City Five Beats Minot 21-18 Magicians Hold Lead at Half- time; Lose Battle in Over- time Period Valley City, N. D., Jan. 24—(P)— Valley City high school basketballers defeated Minot high 21 to 18 in an overtime basketball game here Fri- day night. Exchanging leads from the very start, the two teams battled on even |terms throughout, emerging at the end of the regular playing time 18- all. Bertsch, Valley City forward put his team in the lead With a long field goal at the start of the overtime period and Jeffery added another point from the free throw line. Minot had several opportunities to score but their shots went wild. ‘The Magicians held 6 to 2 lead at first quarter. Valley City left the floor at the half time period ahead 8 to 6, and Minot again was leading 14 to 10 as the third quarter final whistle blew. As the fourth quarter opened Stern dribbled irr to give Val- ley City two points, but DeMots made two field goals off the back board to give Minot 18, Owens then counted a field goal and a free throw after which Noecker tied the score with a similar performance. ‘The defensive work of both teams was a feature of the game, which at times was dull and then bril- Hiant. Minot had a fast breaking of- fensive while Valley City relied on a triangular block offensive to score. Noecker was high scorer with eight ts, though he was held in check point quite éffectively by Dahl, Minot’s only big player. Miller and Bertsch played a great defensive game against the Midgets, Dunnell and Kalbfleisch, speedy Minot forwards.
