He tallied all but five of the points col-' lected by the Demons to find the} circle four times from the floor in ad- dition to counting four out of five times from the charity line.

The Demons showed the results of wear and tear. Harrassed by illness, which has struck at the squad during the last 10 days, the team had two hard games on successive nights. The squad gave everything it had in a gruelling uphill battle against Man- dan Friday night and a let-down was apparent in their play against the Hi-Liners. During the first quarter, things were on more or less even terms and the score stood at seven-all at the end of the period. Valley City got away to a lead in the second stanza tnd the score stood 12 to 9 as the half 2nded. ‘Again in the third period, the De- mons came back to hold their own to score four points while the Hi-Liners were picking up five. It was in the final stanza that the locals made their bid for victory to come up from behind to knot the score at 17 all.

New York, Feb. 22.—(?)—In her own way, she’s one of the prettiest young ladies in America, @ mincing, prancing young lady. She's quite the catch of the season, as far as horses go, this Miss Top Flight, daughter of the very aristocratic Mr. Dis Done and Mrs, Flyatit. Despite her youth, three scant years, she al- ready has banked $219,000. As a matter of fact she is the richest young lady in all the history of horse racing. Perhaps her face isn’t as beau- tiful, classically, as some feminine faces that appear at race tracks, but she can wiggle her ears. Her nose is rather long, but her legs, her back limbs rather, are slim and shapely, and snow white. Otherwise she’s a soft glossy bay color, pel but the white blaze across her face. Her eyes are big and brown. She seems to know it. She's a most affectionate young lady and very good housekeeper. She has a spotless white home in the C. V. Whitney stables at Brookdale farm near Red Bank, N. J. She eats her oats and hay in the dignified manner of a grande dame, never cattering good about the house as some ill- bred horses do. There is nothing upstage about her; she is just “choosy.” She loves. to have her sleek coat brushed and shined, her legs oiled. Her affections, however, are none too stable. For a lump of sugar she'll make a grand play for an utter stranger. She nuz- zles around in the pockets of visi- tors if the sugar isn’t forthcom- ing. She has a way of looking disappointed, even a bit disgust- ed, if the search is fruitless. “Mimi” is her name around the stables and “Top Flight” just a title that goes into the .ecord book.

D., Feb. 22—(#)—The North Dakota Agricultural college won the basketball championship of the north central conference here Sat- urday by defeating South Dakota State college 32 to 24. At the end of = aia half, South Dakota led 14 13, The Bison came dangerously close to prolonging their championship con- quest as the Jackrabbits fought va- liantly and effectively to forestall the decision. This Bison team was just as stub- born, and once it got out in front it stayed there, but it took 27 long minutes for the herd to get ahead and stay there. Even then there was danger lurking, but the Saalwaechter clan dispelled all fear as basket fol- lowed basket until the margin had mounted to 13 points with four min- utes of play remaining. Led by their ace. shooter, Don Arthur, the Bison piled in five early field goals against none for the Jack- rabbits, but constant fouling by the Bison on which the Brookings quintet counted free throws kept the Jack- rabbits in the game,’and the Bison finished on the short end of a 14-13 score at the half. Arthur was the brilliant offensive star of the Bison attack before he was sent from the game with the maximum number of infractions. He counted three times from the field in the first half and before his dis- missal with 5% minutes of the sec- ond half gone he counted again. This second half counter by Arthur was on a rebound after three minutes and it regained the lead for the Bison at 15-14, With their leading scorer definite- ly out of the setto, McKay and Bob Weir emulated the Mandan youth, McKay finding the net for three Leia goals while Weir dropped in a Pair. Ikky Nordstrom and Leo Thomasson also counted from the field in the second half. Leading the Jackrabbit attack was Stan Rishoi, the state captain. He was the only visiting performer who counted more than once from the field. He counted both of his field goals in the first half, being largely responsible for giving the Jackrabbits the lead. He also counted four times from the free throw line in addition to a good defensive performance. The summary: 8. D. State Snyder, f Benson, ¢, ¢ ... Bankert, f ..

SOUNDLY DEFEATED BY BOILERMAKERS Purdue Is Scheduled to Engage Indiana Aggregation at Bloomington ILLINOIS BEATS MICHIGAN Gophers Move Rack Into Third Place By Walloping Badg- ers, 43 to 17 Chicago, Feb. 22—(7)—Tonight’s schedule in the western conference basketball championship= race may account for Northwestern’s chance of retaining or sharing the title. The Wildcats, soundly beaten -by Purdue Saturday night, must face Michigan at Ann Arbor, and their chances of winning appéar none too good. At Evanston several weeks ago, Northwestern was just able to trim the Wolverines, 21 to 20, and may suffer its third’ defeat of the season. The three defeats in the Big Ten this year seem to mean elimination from the title scramble. _ Purdue will play its second game of the season against Indiana, at Bloom- ington, and should be able to take the improved Hoosiers. In their pre- vious meeting the Boilermakers roll- ed up 2 49 to 30 victory, and playing as they have since returning to the battle, figure to win. In the other game tonight, Chicago and Wiscon- sin will meet at Madison, with the loser doomed to last place. Purdue reached peak form Satur- day night to defeat Northwestern, 48 to 33, leading all the way and mak- ing a runaway of it in the closing minutes. e battle between Joe Reiff of Northwestern and Purdue's Johnny Wooden, resulted in a big egde for the Boilermaker guard who outscored Reiff, 15 points to six. Illinois broke out with another up- set in defeating Michigan, 29 to 23, at Champaign. Michigan and Illinois are tied for fourth place with five victories and three defeats. Minnesota moved back into third Place by walloping Wisconsin, 43 to 17, at Minneapolis. The victory was Minnesota's sixth in nine games, and its most decisive triumph of the sea- son. Chicago surprised its followers by trimming Ohio State, 29 to 26, for its first victory in seven conference starts. Indiana continued its tardy drive for a first division position by defeat- ing Iowa, 43 to 33. The Hoosiers to- day were tied with Ohio for fifth Place, and were more than hopeful of upsetting their ancient foe, Purdue, tonight. Beach Takes Lead In Western Loop Cowboys Set Back Glen Ullin to Assume Leadership of Slope Conference Beach, N. D., Feb. 22.—The Beach high Cowboys won their fifth straight victory in defeating Glen Ullin high here, 37 to 18, and definitely estab- Mshed themselves as leaders of the Missouri Slope conference, Beach assumed an early lead and at the close of the first half. Kneze- vich of Beach was the star of the contest, scoring 22 points. Reef of Glen Ullin accounted for 11 points son: led his teammates. McGee of Beach starréd defensively at guard and accounted for nine points. This victory ranks’ the Cowboys as the outstanding team of western North Dakota as well as placing on top of the Missouri Slope con- ference.
