Hettinger and Bu- cyrus could not decide on a floor to play their contest and so they will furnish the preliminary battle to the fina] tilt in Bismarck district tourney. ‘The Bismarck Phantoms are given the edge to win the tournament by reason of their spectacular victories previously over two college quints and their successful record so far season. The team is almost identical with the squad that won the Missouri Slope independent crown last year. Choose Officials Leonard C. McMahan, former Hamline university cage star and present mentor of the Mandan high school basketball team, and James Slattery, North Dakota Agriculture college othlete, will officiate at the games. Although the Phantoms have the edge in the contest by reason of their previous victories, they will have strong competition in the Glen Ullin Ramblers who also have an impres- sive 1932 cage record. Announcement was made Monday that Leonard Saalwaechter will bring three former Mandan stars with him for the Bison-Phantom tilt here March 26 which will serve as a cur- tain-raiser to the state basketball tournament. Saalwaechter will use Arthur, McDonald and Seitz in the Bison lineup, and it is likely that he will play Nordstrom, May and Fair- head in the Phantom tilt. ‘Drawings in the independent bas- ketball tournament were made Mon- day by A. H. Galliger, who is in charge of the meet.

They have won three pennants in five years, they have developed the j most successful farm system possessed by any club in the big leagues, andj Tuesday they were enjoying the satis- faction of having taken two out of three exhibition games from the world’s champion Athletics in Miami and Fort Myers as a stimulant to the {spring training process. From their grizzled pilot, Charles} | (Gabby) Street, down to the rawest \rookie product of their famous “chain store” system, the Cardinals believe they have the stuff to win the Nation-| al league race again.

Street expects Jim Bottomley to stage a big comeback at first, to the confusion of Sunny Jim's critics, but! there is a capable understudy avail- | jelbert and Sparky Adams, at third, round out the infield. The outfield probably will remain the same, with Chick Hafey in left, Taylor Douthit in center, George Wat- kins and Ray Blades alternating in right. | Jamestown Meet' | ee K.

On the other hand, pitchers who are not so strong on control will have plenty of trouble with the ball, Pennock thinks, while great batsmen like Babe Ruth and Al Simmons will continue to hit it far and often. Clearwater—They do say that the powers-that-be in the Brook- lyn office has lost patience with the famous holdout twins, Dazry Vance and Babe Herman, and have instructed them to take it or leave it. “It” in Vance’s case is said to be $22,500 and in Herman’s $19,- 000. Babe would like $20,000 and Vance could use $25,000. Fort Myers.—Dropping the third and final game to the St. Louis Car- dinals Monday, 4 to 3, the Philadel- Phia Athletics expected to fare bet- ter Tuesday in a battle with the bearded House of David team. The Cardinals took the series, two games Joe Reiff, sophomore forward on Northwestern's first championship Hardwood team, was the most con- sistent vote-getter, being selected by every coach for a first-team berth either at forward or center. His run- ning mate at forward is Captain Harry Schoening of Minnesota. Daniels Made Center The center position went to Norm&n Daniels of Michigan, with JFesler and| Wooden as the guards. The forwards and center were rfamed by a clear-cut margin, but the guard jobs were keenly contested. Fesler’s selection followed his being placed on the all- conference football squad for the past three seasons. The forwards, Reiff and Schoening, are the only six-footers on the team. Reiff, who started at center, was moved to forward, where his shooting ability gave him the individual scor- ing championship with 122 points. He is 6 feet 3 inches tall, handles the ball cleverly, and is a dead shot any- where inside the foul line. Schoening, a senior, who stands an even 6 feet, was the sparkplug of the best team Minnesota has had since 1919. A good shot who amassed 96 points, he also was a good ball han- dler, strong defensively, and a good leader. Daniels maintained Michigan’s mark of seldom going without a first-team player and was the Wolverine’s high scorer, with 93 points. He was the keyman in Michigan’s offense, and his shooting was consistently effective. Guard Margins Slim Fesler, playing his last season, re- not mentioned by the other coaches. Wooden's margin over Marshall of Northwestern, Altenhof of Michigan and Fish of Chicago was slim. Fesler was as much a forward as a guard, and lead his team in scoring with 64 points. Wooden, the sensation of the 1930 season, had not quite as much help as a year ago, and failed to play as brilliantly. However, his ‘dribbling was the best in the league, and his shooting, which gave him 86 points, won him favor again. He is a junior. The second-team selections were: Charles Harper, Illinois, and Bert Riel, Northwestern, forwards; Bob McCarnes, Northwestern, center; and Ray Altenhof, Michigan, and Frank Marshall, northwestern, guards. Believe Elgin Will Be Strong Contender Mott, N. Dak., March 10.—Elgin is expected to be one of the strong con- tenders in the district tournament here Friday and Saturday. Elgin, under the direction of Supt. J, J. Roberts, has won 10 and lost eight cage contests. Of the eight defeats however, five were by mar- gins of two points or less. Elgin has in William Griffin, a diminutive for- ward, the scoring ace of the south Slope this year. On one occasion Griffin scored as high. as 33 points in a single game. Dittus and Reinke, guards, are other outstanding play- ers, in meets Flasher in the first round at 8:30 p. m. Friday. to one, when the Mackmen failed to hit in the pinches. Winter Haven.—Stewart Bol- en, left hander to the majors— has a new “slide” ball. He said it neither breaks like a curve, drops like a knuckler or hops like ‘a forker, just takes a sudden, sidewise slide when it reaches the batter. Bradenton.—Burleigh Grimes, ace of the Cardinal pitchers, and Jess Haines, who also looks fit, arrived from Hot Springs Monday while the Cardinals were away in Miami, and the squad now is complete except for Frankie Frisch and Chick Hafey, who have not signed contracts. ‘West Palm Beach—Manager Bill Killefer of the St. Louis absence of Pitcher Warren (Rip) Collins and First Baseman Lu Blue.
