The card was sponsored by the 40 and 8 of the American Legion. The boys were so evenly matched that it was difficult in almost every case to decide the victor. This is especially shown by the diversity of the decisions rendered by the judges, Herman Leonhard, Major Harold Sor- enson and Harry Rosenthal. Fans had the opportunity of see- ing the progress made by the boys in their gymnasium classes at the audi- torlum. They have been working un- @er John C. Spare, former boxing instructor at Iowa State college. Members of the Legion organiza- tion have worked hard to make the sard possible. Among those besides the judges actively associated with the bouts Saturday were A. D. Mc- Kinnon, K. W. Simons, Walter Mohn. William Zabel, W. I. Franklin and E. M. Davis. Fred Boettcher has as- 3 sisted Spare in instruction work. The boys showed real skill in the leather-pushing contests. Feinting. ducking, \jabbing and guarding in all the matches displayed the benefits of expert tutelage. But the most valu- able experience gained by the con- testants is the knowledge of sports- manship, The youthful boxers were all in good shape physicially.

Coach Bob Lowe since November developed his second- and third-year state men into one of the most form- idable squads in the circuit, but South Dakota eked out that victory to vir- tually put them out of the running. During the entire 40 minutes of play but one personal was called against the Bison players. Bud Mar- quardt fouled Bobby Buck as the Coyote guard attempted @ shot from under the net. Russ Anderson, center, after the Bison had trailed all during the game, tossed in the field goal in the last few minutes of play to tie the game at 30. John Illsley, Coyote center, counted on a set-up as the final gun sounded. Anderson was high for his mates, witn a 13-total. Bob Murphy, tow-headed forward, dropped in seven field goals to lead the southerners in scoring. ‘The summary: South Dakota (32) FG FT PF Olson, f . 2 0-1 0 Murphy, f . 7 00 2 Isley, 4 0-0 2 Buck, g 1 2-20 2 Dyson, g . 1 0-0 60 Totals ...cceeeeee1d 2-3 6 Bison (30) 2 22 061 2 #00 0 6 1-2 0 0 0-0 0 1 1-2 0 2 00 0 ‘Totals .........005 4-6 1 Referee: Dick Holzer.

POLO FINDS FAVOR IN WEST; PLAINSMEN LIKE ROUGH PLAY |= Lone-Star Mallet Swingers Contest With California Quartet | Until a few years ago polo was re- garded by the man in the street as @ snooty sport for the financially fav- ored few.. Its capital was Long Island, scene of the international matches with the British. But the game, like football, has gone west, where its picturesque and sensa- tional action has won the popular fancy of thousands of fans. The year around, polo is being played now on @ nation-wide scale. sek On Sunday, Feb. 4, a picked team of Texans invaded Los Angeles to lose, 19 to 15, to a hard-riding Caltfornia four in the first of a three-game series. Each team boasts a 10-goal man, such a rating being the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a Poloist, ‘Top-ranking Cecil Smith, former cowboy, leads the Lone Star gallopers. Elmer Boeseke, Jr., who, like Smith, was elevated to the pedestal of 10 goals this year, rides for the Cali- fornians, Fast ponies featured the opening clash, and Aiden Roark’s eight goals, against Smith's seven goals for the Texans. Two Texas players, M. B. Bilmroe and Tom Mather, bit the dust in @ collision. The series were continued Sunday and a third game will be played Feb. 18. The meeting is held second in national importance to the world ser- jes between eastern and western teams, won by the west at Chicago jast summer. Another big feature of the winter season is the approaching} east-west indoor championship class, which, like last year’s, probably will be held at Chicago. s* % Tt was not until the series at the Chicago exposition that the full significance of polo’s progress across the face of the United States was realized. And it was a new game. played in a new spirit, that captured the world’s fair visitors. There was more of hockey and football in it than the sport Long Island had known.

Troubled With Holdout Worries New York, Feb, 12—(%)—Major league baseball owners, retrenching for the third successive year, have dished out another series of salary tlashes for 1934 and now are reaping a banner crop of holdouts. Babe Ruth, erstwhile champion of K the salary-arguers, meekly signed a New York Yankee contract some weeks ago at $35,000, representing @ cut of $17,000, and some clubs a5 a whole, notably the world champion New York Giants, apparently are hav- ing little trouble swinging their per- formers into line, but elsewhere the anguished howls of the players in- dicates the magnates will need plenty of persuasive arguments before all will be serene again. Most prominent among the dissatis- fied is Jimmy Foxx, who captured just about all batting championships the American League could offer last sea- son. Instead of # raise, Foxx was asked to take a cut. The big first baseman indignantly turned it down and announced he’d wait for the clut to move next. ) ‘Though the A’s have other troubles | with Outfielder Roger Cramer and Third Baseman Frank Higgins, for instance, the principal storm centers Walter Stewart, first-string pitchers, Hack Wilson, Joe Stripp, Van Mungo and Lopez all have been list« ed _as Brooklyn holdouts.
