With the right to enter the state ournament at stake, the game is ex- rected to resolve itself into a battle ‘oyal. Coach George Hays of Bismarck s pinning his hopes on the ability of nis charges to score against the Man- ian contingent. Satisfied that the Demon defense cau hold the Warriors In check, the Bismarck mentor be- eves that success or defeat for the locals hinges on their ability to find he hoop. ! In five games played in the last ywo seasons, the Demons have de- seated the Warriors in as many starts. A review of the statistics re- reals, however, that they have a mar- sin of victory of but three points a game. > Regarded as one of the strong veams in the state, the Braves are expected to extend themselves to the timit to avenge two previous defeats | his season and to get a shot at state Aonors in the state meet to be held ere March 23 and 24. , Mandan rode through the district journament with flying colors to take she district title. At no time during she meet were they extended to prove sheir superiority. Bismarck, on the other hand, was pressed by Max in finals of the sixth district tourna- ment. The fact remains, however, that the Demons have two previous vic- tories to their credit to give them a) certain psychological advantage over | the opposition. A good “money” team, the Red Shirts should deliver in view of previous performances. Coach Hays announced that his) starting lineup probably would see Eddie Agre and Dohn at _forw: Finnegan at center, while the guards will be selected from among Green, Schlickenmeyer, and Manney. Coach Leonard McMahan of the Braves would make no announcement of his starting lineup. ‘The game is slated to get under way at 9 p. m.

Although De Lasalle has succeeded | in capturing the national title for the past five years, it had anything but an easy road ahead in the 1932) tournament. Every one of its rivals boasted some title or other and nine were state champions. The Minne-; polis team lost three of its star members from a year ago by gradua- tion and didn’t appear to have its old time power and speed.

Model of Big Ten Athletic Houses Hawkeyes Win Praise From Critics Who Ostracized Them Two Years Ago Chicago, March 16.—(4)—The Uni- versity of Iowa, a Big Ten outcast only two years ago, has been pro- claimed by its severest critics as the model athletic house of the confer- ence. Those same Big Ten officails, who voted to ostracize the Hawkeyes from their sports program on Jan. 1, 1930. for proselyting and recruiting star athletes contrary to conference reg- ulations, and the stern North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools have praised the Iowa house cleaning program and are more than Satisfied. “Iowa has reformed to such an ex- tent that it has swung clear over the mark to meet necessary require- ments.” reported Dr. H. M. Gage, president of Coe college at Cedar Falls, Iowa, and chairman of the North Central associations’ board of review after a rigid investigation. “It has the model athletic house and has done its house cleaning job in con- vincing and gratifying fashion.” Iowa's latest move in winning geri- uine approbation of the Big Ten lead- ers was the selection of Ossie Solem of Drake university as head football coach. The choice of Solem was praised by every atheltic director and football coach in the conference. Solem was expected to bring many of the “die hards” of Towa’s-alumni into line again with his popularity. Since the Hawkeyes accepted the Big Ten ultimatum to clean house and kicked star athletes out in wholesale lots, thousands of Iowa alumni tossed up their hands and swore they would never become enthusiastic about the schools’ atheltic program or witness @ Hawk sports event again.

SIDE GLANCES - - - By George Clark Guocie TZ WILL BE $75,000 FOR GURRENT YEAR Holdout Act Will Be Brought to} a Close Before Bored Newspapermen EXPECT VICTORY FOR BABE Player Has Insisted Upon $80,- 000; Ruppert Stood Pat On $70,000 St. Petersburg, Fla., March 16.—() —That celebrated dramatic sketch labelled the “signing of Babe Ruth,” with sound effects, was due for the big climax today, with our hero wield- ing a fountain pen in the act of help- ing Col. Jacob Ruppert save the old Yankee homestead. Barring some villainous hitch in the old fashioned script, the Babe and the colonel were expected to reach a final agreement at a conference definite- ly fixed for 11 a. m., at Ruth’s hotel. The delay so far in bringing the Babe's holdout act to a close has bored most of the war correspondents but they all prepared to re-assemble in the lobby today, supported by a full field battery of still and sound cam- era operators. If any of the boys fail to get a “shot” at this year's big cere- mony it will not be due to any over- sight by the Yankee management, which is obtaining the ballyhoo in large chunks. Meanwhile the consensus is that Ruth will win a compromise from his employer to the extent of getting a presidential salary of $75,000 for 1932 only, Up to a late hour neither the Babe nor the colonel had in so many words indicated any recession from their original positions, the athlete insist- ing upon $80,000 for one year and the owner standing pat on $70,000. Ruth, although declining to discuss any figures, said he expected to sign and get in his first exhibition game this afternoon against the Boston Braves .here. MEANEST MAN Albuquerque, N.

As they took the food into her house, a man in an automo- bile drove up, whisked a 50-pound sack of flour into his car, and sped away before he could be caught.

His foundation of hope is the Sox pitching corps. He maintains it will ‘compare to the league's best. Talk pitchers to Fonseca and he points to Ted Lyons, Urban Faber, Alphone Thomas, Pat Caraway, Vic- tor, Frasier, Irving Harley, Ralph Erickson, Sam Jones and Milton Gas- ton, and explains he has hurlers to spare. : Mention heavy hitters to the Sox skipper and he blushes. He is still searching for the wallop that was ab- sent in the punchless seventh place Sox of 1930 and last placers of 1931. Fonseca expects some excellent pitching from Frasier who won 13 and lost 15 last season. He thinks with the normal amount of improve- ment and confidence that Frasier will win 20 games. Expects Improvement “Ted Lyons,” explained Fonseca, “had a sore arm last year. Thomas was only fair, I expect improved pitching from these two. Caraway, I believe, will win around 18 games. Red Faber wil be used in spots and may win at least 10 games.” The outstanding rookie pitcher ts Ralph Erickson, a big southpaw, who won 15 and lost 10 at Shreveport last year. The infield shapes up with Lou Blue at first,,Minter Hayes at second, Chalmer Cissell at shortstop and Carey Selph at third. Blue and Cis- sell are regular holdovers. Hayes was secured from Washington. Selph was drafted from Houston, where he play- ed second. Of the four, Selph was last year’s hardest hitter. He batted 322. Joseph Sullivan and Luke Appling, holdovers, and Gregory Mulleavy from Toledo are other infield candi- dates with a change to stick. Outfield Is Puzzle The outfield is a puzzle. Harold Anderson from St. Paul, Melbourne Simons from Toledo and Bruce Campbell from Little Rock are among the promising recruits. John Wat- wood and Bob Fothergill are experi- enced major leaguers. Watwood is sure to be a regular. Fothergill is a heavy hitter, but weak on defense. play the outfield in a desperate at- tempt to bolster the Sox offence. Smead Jolley, pinch hitting out- fielder, is trying to develop into a catcher. If Jolley fails as a catcher, Frank Grube and Henry Tate, regu- lar maskmen last year, will again share the burden.
