The parochial quint played ragged ball throughout, and repeatedly lost the leather by poor passes and care- less handling. ‘The guarding of Tommy Lee and Bob Murphy ruined many scoring chances of the Mandan five. The two backcourt men also were outstanding 4m advancing the ball. Although it ‘was generally believed that John Boelter, forward, would not be includ- ed in the Saint’s lineup for the Man- dan tilt because of a stiff neck with which he has been troubled for some time, his play Wednesday was largely Fesponsible for the victory.

VENZKE MAY QUIT MILE New York, Feb. 1—()—Gene Venz- ke, the University of Pennsylvania sophomore who holds the world indoor |mile record of 4:10, may abandon his favorite event.in favor of the two- mile run after Saturday's clash with Glenn Cunningham in the Millrose games. For ‘World’ Mat Title}: New Athletic Director Names Joe Boland, Former Grid Star, as Assistant South Bend, Feb. 1—()—Elmer Layden sat down at Knute Rockne’s famous old desk under the Golden Dome Thursday and began his active campaign to bring Notre Dame back to its former glory in the football world. Back on the grounds, where he gained fame as fullback on the im- mortal “Four Horsemen” eleven, Lay- den officially took charge of Notre Dame's athletic destinies as director of athletics and head football coach. No ceremonies were held with his in- duction to office, although two weeks ago he was given a tumultous recep- tion at the annual football banquet. Layden, who won national renown as a football player under the late Knute Rockne and a reputation as a fine coach at Duquesne University, brought one new assistant with him as he took over the offices, previously held by Jess Harper and Hearty “Hunk” Anderson.

Myers and Ivan B. Williamson Will Help New Haven, Conn., Feb. 1.—(P}— The appointment of Raymond “Ducky” Pond as head coach of Yale football witn a staff of “outside” as- sistants was commended Thursday by The Yale News, undergraduate daily, as providing “the best coaching con- sistent with the preservation of Yale sportsmanship.” Named as chief aides to Pond were Earle “Greasy” Neale of West Vir- ginia, backfield coach; Denny E. My- ers of West Virginia, line coach; Ivan B. Williamson of Michigan, end coach. (Basketball Coach, Indiana Univ.) Here are a few ideas of what the leading basketball coaches of the ‘country are looking for in the way of player qualifications. They should be of particular interest to high school players who are contemplating entering college. Elmer Ripley, Yale The first qualification of an ideal forward is that he must have basket- ball brains. His reactions on the floor must be perfected to a degree that they seem instinctive. He must be above medium height and able to run at top speed for 40 minutes, fast and shifty on the floor, a clever sure ball handler, and an. artist at feints and fakes. His shot must be fast and accurate both from inside and outside the foul line. J. Craig Ruby, Illinois Physically my ideal forward would. be about six feet tall; weigh about 170 pounds; have good eyesight, strong shoulders, large hands, loose hips, powerful legs, medium-sized feet and a good sense of balance. He should be fast, rugged, and well co- ordinated. Mentally this forward should “rather play basketball than eat.” George R. Edwards, Missouri Socially and morally my ideal for- ward must live cleanly and inspire the respect of his associates. Men- tally he must be able to carry schol- astic work with honors; be alert and willing to learn new and better meth- ods; show fast and original thinking under pressure; possess a desire to be a unit in team play; have aggressive- ness and a will to win. Physically he must have speed and stamina; abil- ity to handle the ball and pass ac- curately; judgment and acuracy in basket shooting, and strength in de- fensive play. John W. Bunn, Stanford In choosing forwards I look for three abilities. First: ability to score from all positions on the court—25 feet or closer to the basket. Second: quickness in movement about the court—in other words, reaction time. Quickness rather than speed is em- Dhasized because basketball is not so much a game of great speed as it is a game of quickness. Third: judgment in passing and ability for team play. —— t Fights Last Night | OH (By The Press) ‘Paul Lee, 123, In- dianapolis, outpointed Pewee Weghorn, 124, Charleston, W. Va.

JOE KNIGHT TO MAKE TRY FOR — LIGHTHEAVY CROWN THURSDAY Twin City Sextets Fight 3-to-3 Draw Minneapclis, Feb. 1.—()—Minneap- olis and St. Paul fought to a 3-3 teadlock in a Central Hockey League «vertime contest here Wednesady night which was marked by fisticuffs and numerous penalties. The Millers were forced to play five minutes of the third period and the entire overtime period without the services of one player when Cliff Purpur, wing, drew a match penalty of 20 minutes following his fight with Johnny Loscks, St. Paul defense man, who also visited the penalty box for @ major, Maxie Rosenbloom Is 6-5 Fav- orite as Ring Battle at Miami Approaches Miami, Fla, Feb. 1—()—Maxie Rosenbloom, Harlem's playboy cham jon, faces tough opposition Thurs- day night in meeting Joe Knight, a rough swinging southpaw, from Cairo, Ga., in a 15-round title fight in the Madison Square Garden’s arena. The lightheavyweight champion Tuled a 6-5 favorite overnight, with prospects that the odds would balance by the time the fighters enter the ring for Florida's first title bout since 1894. MINOR LEAGUES MAY HAVE SAME BASEBALL AS MAJORS “Cushion Center” Featured in| the Manufacture of Stan- dardized Horsehide New York, Feb. 1.-(P)—Equally as important to the major leagues as the adoption of a standard ball for their own competition is the prospect that most, if not all, of the principal minor leagues will use a similarly construct- ed article for 1934. The International League ball will come from the same Philadelphia fac- tory that is now turning out the new standard sphere for the majors. The American Association and the Pacific Coast League, the other two double-A. circuits and chief sources of Major League playing material, also are ex- ected to fall into line. ee of the ball standardized for the Ma. ‘cushion: There are some patented features jor Leagues, including a “ - cork” center, but other manufacturers. have the specifications and equipment. required to turn out a bail that will behave similarly, thus achieving the object of putting performances throughout the ranks of organized baseball on an approximate parity. Tf any player deals are or completed at next week’s mid-win- ter pow-wow of National League club owners, it is pretty certain the Bos- ton and Philadelphia clubs will figure in the swapping. ‘Unttl lately Chick Hafey, slugging backbone of the Cincinnati Reds, was much in demand but the new Redland control has now let it be known they will not part with the former batting champion. Loughran and His Mother ig Wood Leads After First Day At Agua Caliente Golf Tournament Bobby Cruickshank Makes 18 Holes in 68 to Stand Sec- ond in Open Tourney Agua Caliente, Mex., Feb. 1—(7)}— Craig Wood, Deal, N.

Y., the de- fending champion, were in a strategiq position as play started on the second round, with 69's. REFUSAL OF REFEREE LICENSE NOT FINAL Alex Nemzek of the Minnesota Athletic Board Believes Petrolle Eligible Moorhead, Minn., Feb. 1.—(?)—Alex Nemzek, athletic director at the Moor- head State Teachers college and & member of the Minnesota state ath- letic commission, Wednesday branded the refusal of the Gopher solons to grant Billy Petrolle a referee's license in that state as certainly not final. “Inasmuch as the entire commis- sion did not act in refusing Petrolle a referee’s license, the action can by no means be considered final,” Nem- zek said. “It has been the accepted practice of the new commission for individual members to handle certain sections of the state, and particular commission- er involved was expected to have the final word in any matter pertaining to the boxing game in his section. “I shall write the secretary of the commission requesting the reason for such action. I understand Duluth 1 without a commissioner at the present time, and if this is true, it certainly should fall upon the remaining mem- bers of the commission to formulate the present and future plan for the Duluth district. “Since I have been in office as athe letic commissioner, I know of no rea- son why Billy Petrolle should be de- nied # referee's license, and if character were such that he was lowed to participate as a boxer, it only reasonable to assume he acter sufficient to warrant as a referee,” Nemzek said in ment to the Fargo Forum. commission until formed by the Fargo Forum late Wed- nesday.
