The Aggies and Nodaks will play two games, the second on Saturday, ‘but only Friday’s tilt will count in the standings. The two teams clash again Feb. 27 and 28 at Fargo, but only the first game will have a bear- ing on the title. South Dakota's Coyotes are leading the league with four straight vic- tories, and are doped to take another tilt when it meets Morningside at Sioux City, Saturday. The deciding game of the league is booked between the Coyotes and Flickertails at Grand Forks next week after the North Da- kota Aggie game. Sees Nodak-Bison Court Program as Hottest in Years Saalwaechter, Aggies’ Mentor, Says He Can Match U. N. D. ‘Man for Man’ Fargo, N. D., Feb. 12.—“Looks like itll be the hottest series since I started coaching the Bison.” So vouchsafed Leonard T. Saal- waechter, North Dakota State college coach, anent the opening at Grand Forks Friday of the annual Bison- Sioux four-game basketball feud to decide the state championship. ‘All past games between the two institutions have been what might be termed “hot,” but never before have the teams been so well-matched on the basis of past records. Both coaches are well bolstered with reserve material. Concerning if jaaly” says: there are those who say the Uni- v as much better reserves than we have. It is true Letich has some mighty fine veterans ready to go in- to battle, but my men will offset this experience with fight and dash. For the first time in years we can match! the University squad, man for man.”| In fact, “Saaly” rates his reserves so good that he refuses to name the starting five until just before the) game. Fine showing of such men as Bob Weir, Leo Thomason, La Verne, MacDonald and Donald Arthur, the! Jatter the most consistent marksman on the squad, has jeopardized the po- sition of several so-called regulars. In the victory over St. Thomas last | week, Nordstrom, a veteran, was nov| used at all and Vic McKay was used | only during the last half minute. Leo May, only senior on the squad, | ts the only certain starter Friday and it is likely the others will see service | iIn-various combinations. At any rate,| the Bison are in excellent condition for the battles which mean more than all the other games put to- gether.

Thayer of Villanova, Pa.,; a West Point cadet, are on display at the fifty-fifth annual Westminster Kennel club show, which closes Thurs- day night. A stocky little fellow is the border terrier, short-legged, with a sandy| coat of straight, wiry hair and a face | shaped something like that of a smooth fox terrier. j For centuries he has been raised—' without any particular attention to fine points in breeding—along the Scottish border, and in his own coun- try his courage and his hardihood are proverbial, Something like the background of the American farm dog is that of the border terrier, He had his work to do, he was good at it, and nobody ever, thought of him as an aristocrat, worthy of being entered in a show. The border terrier’s job was to keep the big estates along the border be-| tween England and Scotland from be- | ing overrun with the kind of game that burrows. He is also used nowa-/| days to root the fox out of his hole so} the hounds can chase him. The fox may be bigger than the border terrier, but that makes no dif- ference to him. At Cadet Thayer's home in Pennsylvania one day a bor- der terrfer pup attacked and killed a rat half an inch longer than he was. ‘Center of Nodak Five Ineligible C. A.

Felber attracted considerable attention last fall while playing end on the Nodak football team. West gave no reason for his action.

Concordia Five Leaves on Jaunt | cobbers Will Meet St. Olaf and Macalester in Important | Contests hopeful Concordia college basketball players left Moorhead Thursday on 'a two-game road trip to Northfield ‘and St. Paul on which they expect to better their chances of winning the Minnesota College Conference cham- |plonship. The Cobbers have played only three games, all of them on their field Friday night against St. Olaf, and one Saturday at Macalester should determine whether they will end the season with an undefeated record. After these games only four will remain on the Cobber schedule, two with Hamline, one with St. John's and the other in St. Paul against St. Thomas. The Tommy game should prove to be the hardest if they get through the two games this week. ‘The Cobs are favored to win from the Oles Thursday night, but the Mac game is a tossup, with many experts predicting a Macalester victory. Gustavus was given a good chance to go back into a tle for second and third places Thursday afternoon when they were to meet the St. {John’s quint at Collegeville.

He was about 71 years old. 4 Dryden, who worked on Chicago, San Francisco and New York papers up until about 15 years ago, became famous for the unique manner in which he reported baseball games. He always built his stories around an in- cident which struck him as humor- ous. He was nationally recognized as one who could pick a nickname for a jbaseball player and make it stick, and make the baseball players like him. He was the first to call Frank Chance, late manager of the famous Cub team of 1906, the “peerless leader.” He was the first to call a baseball park a “ball yard.” He hung the name “Big Moose” on Ed Walsh, the famous White Sox pitcher, and once wrote of Walsh as “the only man in the world who could strut standing still.” Regards Game as Joke Dryden regarded baseball as a huge joke, and always wrote humorously of the games. While employed in New York 25 or 30 years ago, the late John T. Brush, then owner of the New York Giants, took exception to the facetious way in which Dryden described a ball game, and had him barred from the ball park. That made no difference to Dryden. He climbed a tall telegraph pole outside the park and proceeded to report the games day after day while perched atop one of the cross- bars, Finally Brush relented and Dry- den was later admitted to the park. Dryden became a writer through no desire of his own. He was an iron moulder in Monmouth, Ill., and while incidents that came to his mind. A friend, reading some of Dryden's sketches, advised him to quit the iron moulding business and become an author. Dryden wrote several humor- ous books, one of which was entitled “On and Off the Bread Wagon.” It was a story of his own personal ex- periences. Later he wrote a story of the sea, after he had been shanghaied off the docks of San Francisco and forced on a trip around the world. Dryden Gets First Job When Dryden decided to become a writer he went to San Francisco, He hung around a newspaper office, and when a big fire broke out and there being no regular reporters available, Dryden was assigned to the job. He wrote an amusing story about the fire, neglecting to mention that several firemen had been killed, but the story made such a hit with the editors that ; Dryden was given a permanent job. Dryden was one of the unique char- acters of the newspaper world. Until @ few years before illness forced him into retirement he always wrote his copy in longhand. Then when he de- cided to use the typewriter he labori- ously began to peck out his story with two fingers. When he finished his story he would throw it over to the sports editor, saying “Here's another jPiece about those silly eggs.” Belfield Cagers Beat Sentinel Butte, 39-11 Belfield, N. D., Feb. 12.—Belfield’s independent cage squad defeated tie Sentinel Butte Bronchos 39-11 here Tuesday. Sentinel Butte forfeited the game late in the last quarter when a play- er was benched on personal fouls leaving only four eligible men on the floor. The crowd booed the Sentinel Butte squad as they left the floor. Belfield opened the scoring sinking eight points before their opponents had a shot at the basket. The scor- ing orgy was stopped, however. early in the second period. Brunsoman and Hood both received injuries which slowed them up. . McCabe and Brun- soman were outstanding for Belfield.
