The final score was 23-22, St. Mary’s and Wahpeton have two of the fastest Class B quints in North Dakota. Both have won con- tests from Class A squads, and both have lost one game to state teams. Fargo took a victory by one point from the Wops and Jamestown triumphed over the locals. In Friday’s contest neither team had a lead at any time of more than three tallies. Score was tied at the end of the first quarter 6 to 6; at the half, 11 all. St. Mary's had a 16 to 15 advantage when the fourth period started. | The crowd was tense during the entire game, but especially near the end. During the last minutes many were on their feet, and almost every- one in the audience was yelling. In the final quarter the Saints were ahead most of the time. They pushed their 16 points to 17; Wah- peton then tied the count with a field goal, and took the lead by a gift shot; the Saints went to 19 and then to 20; the Wops followed with another free toss to give the locals but a one-point lead; the advantage ‘was stretched to 22 to end the tally- ing for the Saints; Wahpeton gar- nered two shots from the court for their win. The Bismarck boys were weak in the free-throw department, missing five of nine attempts. The down-east team converted three out of four. With 14 points to his credit, Frank Lee copped the scoring honors in the contest. His teammate, Art (Stretch) Hulbert, counted six for the Saints and played exceptional ball on both offense and defense. Tommy Lee did not start for the parochial quint. He has heen ill and not able to practice during the last | week. He and Bob Murphy played their usual brilliant game at the back-court positions. John Boelter, one of the steadiest and most reliable | un-{ { of St. Mary’s cagers, played selfishly and well. Joe Napravnick, center, seven, was high man for Coac! Marty Engh’s team. Harvey Rife, forward, counte dthree field goals for next high. Napravnick’s work at the pivot position was outstanding, and he was able to consistently get the tip-off. Bob Wilson, Vernon Rieke, Walker Cox, and Ole Lind-/ strom eompleted the lineup. The visitors had an advantage of | height that played an important part ; in this victory. George L.

D. Feb. 17.—(®)—The North Dakota Agriculture college bas- ketball team retained a feeble grip on conquest of the favored University of North Dakota quintet here Friday night. The Bison. who for two years have reigned as champions of the league, saw part of their chances lost last Saturday as they suffered a setback by the University of South Dakota, but they came back Friday night, outfought and outplayed the favored Nodaks and went on to win. For the first half it had been a torrid battle, with the period ending in a 14-all deadlock. The Nodaks as- sumed the lead shortly after play was resumed in the final half, but the Bison spurted after 313 minutes, went into the lead again and never were the Nodaks able to catch the Herd who found the net with hot shots. The Bison gambled and won. They knew they had to stop the scoring offensive of Ted Meinhover and Her- man Witasek. Their strategy proved correct as they deliberately fouled these two scoring powers, losing the services of two men, but their strat- ezy proved the deciding factor. They were forced to switch their defensive assignments as Acey Olson and Curt Denenny were on the border line, but the newly assigned defensive Players came through with the same tactics, and as the Nodaks missed their chances from the free throw line the Herd cashed in. The Sioux made 10 of 14 free throws, while the Bison scored eight points in 9 at- tempts. Russ Anderson, Bison center, was the main spring in the Bison offen- sive, collecting 15 points in all, sink- ing six field goals and a trio of free throws. The play of Arney Bernard, forward, also was of a high order, as he sank three field goals after re- Placing Olson with 15 minutes left to play. All were at crucial junctures. Bud Marquardt was the steadying influence in the Bison lineup, the lone veteran directing the attack of the recruits around him almost fault~ lessly with his cool play at every point. Denenny and Olson played excel- lent defensive games as did Neville Reiners who advanced the ball for the Herd. . Westy Booth was the main spring of the Nodaks’ attack and the only one of the five regulars to finish. The Nodaks lost the services of their captain, Bernard Smith, after 31% minutes of play after he had pushed Anderson too violently as the Bison center attempted to shoot under the net, coming in fast. Anderson was only slightly injured on the play, but 15 seconds before the close of the game Harold Tait was banished for the same offense. This time Ander- son crashed into the wall at the end of the court, and suffered two cuts jabove his right eye. He was unable to continue .and Stan Maynard, who replaced him. registered the two free |throws allotted. Smith had been an important factor in the Nodaks’ of- fense which reached its greatest ef- fectiveness after five minutes of play when they shot out in front by 12-4, The summary —N. D. A. C.

Such is dogsled racing, which will get under way with the running of the International Dogsled Derby at Que- bec, Feb. 23-24-25, and The Pas clas- sic which follows in March. Sled drivers assert this type of rac- ing taxes the human body to its ut- most, and the score or more drivers who will take pert In the Quebec race have been in training for months. * * * Heading the list of entrants this years is Emil St. Godard, 27-year-old {Manitoba boy who swept out of the north in 1925 and, at the age of 18, breezed past veteran racers to win the eastern international derby. Then he rushed back west to cop the 200-mile classic at The Pas. A true champion of this winter sport is young Godard. He has won the eastern meet five times, and The Pas an equal number of times, defeat- ing the pick of Canadian and U. 8. team drivers, including Shorty Rus- sick, Leonhard Seppala, Earl Brydges, and Frank Dupis. * * * The story of St. Godard’s rise to leadership among the mushers is a gripping tale of the northland—and of a mission he set for himself to fill. Walter Goyne, an Alaskan racer, brought his dog team to The Pas and eettled down in 1919. There he in- troduced a new hitch, harnessing dogs tandem style, in place of the old single style. He became the in- spiration of St. Godard after he had won a big race with his new hitch. The youngster copied, his style. One day Goyne carted off on a training trip with his dogs. When he failed to return for days, a searching party set out to find him. They dis- covered he had crashed into a lake with dog team and had become frozen solidly in the ice. After his death St. Godard vowed he'd some day sit on the throne of North America—and there he is! * * * A dogsled racer not only must look to his own condition but that of his dogs. Huskies, the result of breeding the North Greenland Eskimo dog, which is not more than a tame wolf, with Danes, Newfoundlands or Shep- herds, grow fat and lazy when not stantly. Young Godard has been training automobile chassis. With this to pull around, they train down to good run- ning weight and there they are kept until the race. Most races are three laps, 40 miles each. Elapsed time, of course, in making these laps is the basis on which the winner is determined. The driver rides on the sled-runners on level ground, flicking his long whip to break up any squabbles among his ever-arguing dogs. He runs when the sled goes uphill. * * ‘The number of dogs in a team va- ries from seven to twelve. The aver- age is nine dogs. Too many huskies often are a disadvantage. While they pull a bit faster than a smaller team, they also are harder to handle. One of the rules of dogsled racing iis that if’any dog is incapacitated, the {driver must put him on the sled and bring him in at the finish of the race. With a large team, the likelihood of accident to the dogs is greater. and the handicap of carrying one or two dogs back on the sled is too much. So far the only Yankee entered in the race is Moseley Taylor of Boston, who will drive a team of Siberians. But St. Godard will add additional United States color to the race when he drives a team owned by Maj. A. Erland Goyette of Peterboro, N. H.
