D., Feb. 21—South | Dakota university's basketball team roosts securely on top of the North Central conference heap after its 26 to 22 victory in a fast game with North Dakota university here Satur- Using to good advantage a lead piled up in the first half, the Coyotes Gropped back during the second period to play a defensive game, and staved off a Nodak rally in the first four minutes of play to emerge from the contest as champions of the confer- ence for the second straight year. Neither team played a polished game <i basketball, In fact, during moments of the affair, things took on a resemblence of the 11-man gridiron sport. The visitors held a slight edge in ball handling which, combined with their superior height, enabled them to gain a 17 to 11 lead in the first half. The elongated center, Buck, and the flashy forward, Adkins, were the big guns for South Nakota. The for- mer was high-point man for the game with 11. Adkins, leading the offense, was responsible for eight. Crakes was the Coyote defense star. The summary: No. Dak. Schave, f, . Jarrett, f. Webster, c.

The Wildcat sopho- more Monday had 92 points in nine games, 23 more than Schoening of Minnesota had for the same number of contests. Northwestern, the league leader, al- so had tne best scoring record per game, having amassed 278 points for an average of nearly 31. Michigan had the best defensive mark, shaving restricted Big Ten opponents to an average of 21 and a fraction points & game. The individual leade: Daniels, c., Mic Loose, f., Minn. : Tie Tie BAAN 5.

Federal Judge Walter Lindley, be- fore whom the injunction suit of the; St. Louis Browns against Commis- sioner Landis, concerning the disposal of Outfielder Fred Bennett. was heard, Monday said he didn’t expect to reach a decision “for about a month.” Basketball Scores 4 ae erewne ee COLLEGE Concordia, 43; Hamline, 19.

Instead, he became flustered, started to throw to first, then changed his mind and heaved the ball to second, with no one covering. The ball rolled into center field, and two runs, enough to beat Washington, crossed the plate. This boner for a time threatened to cost the. Nats ‘a pennant. Gopher-Wildcat Tilt to Settle Title |MICKEY WALKER TO FIGHT RISKO AT MIAMI TUESDAY Three Other Important Big Ten Battles Are Booked for Monday Night Chicago, Feb. 23.—(P)—It all de- Pends on Minnesota’s basketball team Monday night, for if the Gophers are unable to halt Northwestern, the western conference race may be con- sidered settled. ‘The Wildcats, with their record of eight victories and one defeat, will meet Minnesota at Minneapolis and another victory over the Gophers, who are in second place a game behind, will just about assure Northwestern the title. Northwestern defeated Minnesota, 35 to 26, in their last meeting, but likely will have a much tougher time with the back-to-the- wall Gophers. ‘Three other games of more or less importance will be played Monday night. Michigan will try to retain exclusive possession of third place in meeting Purdue at Lafayette, while IUinois meets Indiana at Blooming- ton, and Ohio State invades Wiscon- sin. Northwestern won its eighth victory last Saturday night, defeating Iowa, 5140 to 30, and Minnesota barely avoid- ed another defeat by nipping Ohio Michigan gained third place by a 33 to 24 victory over Indiana, and Illinois scored its fourth consecutive triumph at the expense of Chicago, 45 to 22. Purdue moved up in the race by thumping Wiscon- sin, 46 to 27. Next Saturday will take a big reef in what remains of the conference schedule, all teams being in action. Ali contests will be return games, with Northwestern playing at Ohio State, Minnesota meeting Purdue at Lafay- ette, Michigan visiting Wisconsin, In- diana tackling Chicago at Chicago, and Iowa playing at Illinois.

Church- il. Led by Fay Brown, former Bis- marck high school athlete and 1931 Zootball captain at the Mayville col- lege, the teacher quint are looking forward to the forthcoming contest with covetous eyes. Ina recent game the Mayville squad defeated the Jamestown col- lege crew by one point. In an early season game the Ellen- dale Dusties, who held the Phantoms te the slender margin of one point, eked out a slim victory. Since that game the Peds have increased their floor attack in efficiency and have developed an accurate eye for basket shooting. Churchill intends to use George “Baldy” Hays at center, the two ‘Bergs’ Schaumberg and Thornburg at forwards, and Mike Geston and George Heidt at guard. . Geston has recently recovered from blood poisoning in his leg. Although he may not be able to finish the game, Churchill intends to start him in the opening lineup. Minneapolis Five Wins I.

The fight is the first of a double- barreled fistic carnival under the palms this winter in the Miami arena built by the Madison Square Garden corporation, which withdrew from the setting this year after promoting two annual festivals of sock. “Pa” Stribling is directing the Walker-Risko show and featuring it with three-round exhibitions by his son, Young Stribling, and Mex Schmeling, who are matched to fight this June for the world’s heavy- weight title somewhere in Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago or Jersey City. On March 5, Primo Carnera, the ambling Alp from Italy, is booked to defy the handicap of a cracked rib} and take on his erstwhile Boston conqueror, Jimmy Maloney, in a 10- round contest under the promotion of Frank J. Bruen. “Pa” Stribling will be quite happy if his show Tuesday night draws up- wards of $50,000, at prices ranging from $2 to $5. Bruen, despite an ad- |} vanced sale estimate at less than $25,000, figures the Carnera-Maloney | 5, affair to draw at least $100,000 on a $20 to $15 price scale. Last year the Sharkey-Scott fiasco took in some- thing like $190,000, but two years ago, in the boom days, the Sharkey-Strib- | ling but at Miami ‘Beach topped | $400,000. iS The Striblings have taken “the 4 though W.

He hate; work in any form. He likes to hum and fish. The first time he eye handled @ .45 caliber service revolver he planted seven of his first ten shots lie uo bull’s eye. * But of all strange physicai : Plications, Bobby is Tight iinet left eyed. He holds a pistol in his right hand but he aims with : eye. It has worked out marvelously in golf. It hasn’t hurt the pisto, shooting. But it is a sore trial indeed when it comes to handling a rifle o; shot gun. He's a good trapshot, though, and swings. an eager stick in pool and billiards. ‘ , Bobby Isn't Vain Bobby isn’t particularly vain, bu the ballooning waistline that some- times afflicts the young man will be one of those things that will not br present when he displays his shots be- fere the movie cameras of Hollywood He won't diet, doesn’t believe in it, but he works out daily with a phy. sical director. In less than a month his weight of 185 pounds has shrunk to 175 and two inches have disap. peared from his waistline. He is training harder for his motion pic- ture debut than he ever did for a championship golf tournament. Bob has been careful of what he eats during a golf championship aft- er some rather bitter experiences at the start of his tournament career Last season he took little or no break- fast. Luncheon between rounds in his more y@uthful days consisted of slabs of pie a la mode but they cost him too many strokes in the after- noon. Now toast and tea is the max- imum. He ate all he wanted of anything after a day's tournament play but the last one—the final trick is gol!- dom's grand slam—at Merion found him unable to sleep nights. It wa the big shot and the strain affectec him more than in any previous tour- ney. Bob plays golf with his favorite foursome enthusiastically arguing over handicaps, with gestures, some- times even using the naughty words. Takes Up Law He came into law, the profession of his father, in the manner of a pon- Gerous slice. He was graduated from Georgia Tech, a mechanical engineer in 1922. Then he went to Harvarc for a B. S., law overtook him as a sort of postscript at Emory universit) Now it is his permanent job though he has many sidelines. He has deep-seated aversion to selling any- {body anything, particularly real es- jtate and bonds. Bobby spends most of his eve: jwith his wife and three young: He reads aloud to Mrs. Jones, v is bad for his radio work, becaus encourages rapidity and casual inflec- tion. He has played golf several with the Prince of Wales and ha been entertained by him. The surest way for a sports wr to enrage the young man is to men tion the number of strokes he has de- liberately penalized himself in major competition. One of them cost him the American open in 1925. “You'd as well commend me fo’ not picking pockets,” he snorts. \Show Interest in Legion Athletics Fargo, N.
