The champion, in his second title defense since he knocked out Jack Sharkey last summer, won decisively enough. He gained the unanimous vote of the three officials and a mar- gin in 10 of the 15 rounds, but he was unable to land a single punch with sufficient power to dislodge Loughran from his feet.

D., March 2.—A battle of champions is in store for Valley City basketball fans Friday night when the University of North tral Intercollegiate conference, meets the Valley City Teachers college, champions of the North Dakota State Intercollegiate conference. ‘Though the University team plays in a higher ranking conference, the Valley Citians are not conceding the Nodaks an edge. The Vikings hit a powerful race in winning their confer- ence title, and if they can maintain it tonight, the championship Sioux will find themselves in for a high-scoring battle. Both outfits are noted for their of- fensive tactics, and each has averaged more than a “point a minute” in the course of the season. The leading scorers in the North Central confer- lence, Herman Witasek, Sioux forward, and Ted Meinhover, Sioux center, are the foremost exponents of the Uni- versity’s high-powered offense. Teaming with these aces will be Capt. Bernie Smith and Westy Booth at guards, and Pinky Mullen at for- rd. ward. ‘This will make the second meeting between the Sioux and Vikings. Ear- Her in the year, the Nodaks van- quished the powerful Valley City team, 43-29. However, the score was no indication of the closeness of the game. It was only in the last few minutes of the game that the Nodaks got “hot” and submerged their oppo- nents. LOCAL BOY STARK ON VIKING TEAM : Valley City, N. D., March’ 2—with their North Dakota College Confer- ence championship safely in their possession and an impressive season record behind them, the Valley State Tacher’s College Vikings prepare to meet the Univeristy of North Dakota Nodaks here, Friday night. Although the University defeated the Vikings at Grand Forks January 13, the Val- ley has high hopes for a Viking vic- tory as the squad is in much better condition than they were at that time. A grueling schedule of four games in Montana the week before and two conference games at Dickinson the ime week as this first game may ve been a big factor in the Viking defeat. Eddie Spriggs, formerly star ath-} lete at the Bismarck high school and} guard on the championship team, is! one member of the Viking team ex-| pected to be a great annoyance to the Nodak threats, Mullen, Witasek, and Meinhover. Since he came into the line-up in January, Eddie has been Playing a bang-up game at guard and proved himself to be a regular ball- hwak. His floorwork, coolness in the pinches, and ball handling, have Stamped Eddie as an outstanding guard in the state college circle this year.

BUSINESS FINE _ three years, Eddie played three sea- sons with the Bismarck Phantoms, a strong independent team. He en- rolled at Valley City the fall quarter last year and proved to be the out- standing football player on the Viking squad, being named all conference halfback. A late season leg injury in football kept Eddie off the basketball squad until January. The Vikings have a season's record of which they can be justly proud. They have been defeated but once in their own conference and twice out- side it. Jamestown College was the conference which set back the Vi-| | kings in January by a two point mar- gin, but the Vikings avenged this de- feat with a 40-25 victory over the Jimmies in a return game. The Butte Montana School of Mines and the University of North Dakota are the other two teams which accomplished the feat. ‘The Viking squad includes the tow- ering Humbracht, and the forwards, Hill and Casey. te : Fights Last Night | _Fights Last Night | Miami, Fla.—Primo Carnera, 270, Italy, outpointed Tommy , 184, Philadelphia (15); retained world heavyweight cham- Pionship; Jackie Reid, 177, New- burgh, Y., 180, outpointed Al ‘White, 178%, New York (4); Ed- die Hogan, 212, New York, oute point Jack Pettifer, 22413, Eng- land (4); ‘Chester Maten, 213, New York, outpointed George vad York, (4); Tony ed out Tootsie 39, fou Va, (1; dm’ Relley, 16, , Porgione, 186, Philadalphia (4), Joseph E.

D.) high school Midgets, under the tutelage of Coach Norman Esser, rang down the curtains on one of their most successful sea- sons in history on Friday, Feb. 23, with a 31-24 victory over Hettinger. The Midgets kept their record un- blemished as they chalked up their fifteenth triumph in as many starts. At the beginning of the season prospects were none too bright.

This year’s team was built around three return- ing letter-winners, Krause, forward, Hartung, center, and Logerwell, guard. Two new men, Kludt, a for- ward, and Paul, a guard broke into the first string line-up to form the combination which carried on throughout the campaign and which developed into one of the highest scoring machines the district has seen in years.
