OUT OUR WAY By Williams | ILOGAL GAGERS BEAT DUNN ENTER 63-20 "| FOR REGIONAL TITLE} St Schneider, Croonquist and and Spriggs Set Fast Pace for Scoring Honors PLAY AT MINOT THIS WEEK Dunn Center Cagers Awarded ’ Medals as District Cham- pionship Winners ‘The Bismarck Prowlers will be among the eight teams in the state independent basketball tournament at Minot Thursday, Friday and Saturday. ‘The capital city boys earned the right to enter the meet, that will de- cide the champion independent quint in North Dakota, by beating Dunn Center 63 to 20 in the regional cham- Pionship game here Monday night. After the contest the Dunn Center Players were each presented with gold medals for winning the championship of District 13. The presentation was made by Neil O. Churchill, vice presi- dent of the state league. Receiving medals were Harmon Ebeltoft, Paul Dawkins, Joe Bosch, Arthur Olsen, Arthur Sommers, Irvin Ebeltoft, Carroll Carns, Alvero Han- sen and Olaf Fosmark. Playing their first game on a big! floor, the Dunn Center cagers were under a great handicap, but they were outclassed in every department of play by the locals. The Prowlers maintained such a close guard that their opponents. were only able to get through the defense for two or three close shots during the evening’s play. Outstanding for the losers was Har- mon Ebeltoft, forward. In the last quarter he netted four field goals by sensational shots. He was high point man for his squad with 11 points to his credit. Play was rough with 28 fouls being’ called. ‘Three Bismarck men were ejected for infractions, and two Dunn Center players. High scorers for Bismarck were John Spriggs with 23 points, Arnold Schneider, with 19, and Garvin Croon- quist with 16 points. Croonquist turn. ed in the best offensive performance of the game, with his sharpshooting and unselfish passing. Schneider proved himself valuable on both of- fense and defense, being active in al- most every play. Spriggs came through regular for baskets whether needed or' not, and brushed the cords from any position on the floor. George Hays, Jerry Griffin, Myron Benser and Emil Martin turned in great games from the back court as is indicated by the few field goals count- ed against them. ‘The summary: Bismarck (63) Croonquist, f Spriggs, f ..

Wins Indoor Tennis Crown nin First Try New York, March 6—A 22-year-old John M’Graw " Acquires World Series Star at Beaumont, Tex., for $40,000 (Editor's Note: This is the first of ‘a series of a tales “awe whese pitching hel the pennant and world series last year, a performance voted the oute standing sports achievement of 1933.) By CARL HUBBELL New York Giants’ Pitcher Fans have asked me how I learned to pitch, especially the screw ball, what are the Giants’ chances of re- peating this year, who are best hit- ters I have faced, who is the best ball player on the championship team, and many other questions. Briefly 1 will attempt to answer, to give my ideas on the outlook for this season, and my opinion of the new ball adopted by the National e. To begin, I started to play ball just as many other millions of youngsters. My first game was in the village of Sparks, Okla, about 10 miles from our farm near Meeker. I saddled & mule with a folded cotton sack and rode over, We won, and I went home with one dollar in my overalls pocket. * oe * T had plenty of ups and downs in baseball before a scout looked me over at Beaumont. Texas, and John Mc- Graw paid $40,000 and turned over Players to bring me to the Giants. After two seasons at Cushing, in the Oklahoma State League, I went to Oklahoma City in the Western, Detroit bought my services in 1926, but I was optioned to Toronto withe out much chance to show anything, From there I went to Decatur in the Three Eye, and was released to Beaue mont in 1928. When I came to the Giants I felt a tremendous responsibility. That $40,000 price tag cheered me up, after having had numerous disoourage- ments, but I also felt that a great deal was expected for that kind of money, eee The Giants were chasing the league-leading Cards when I came up in '28, and the New York pitching staff was beginning to show wear and tear. Two days after I reached New York City 1 was sent to the box against the Pirates. The Polo Grounds was jammed with people. T got along all right in the first inning. Adams popped out, Lloyd ‘Waner went out on a grounder and I fanned his brother, Paul. I got a big hand and felt a little more ase sured. But in the second inning, after a few misplays, I was sent to the show- ers. I felt pretty bad. I thought was out of my class. The Pirates won, 7 to 5, and while the boys were kind enough to say it wasn’t my fault, losing that game must have hard for the Giants’ fans, ** * McGraw sent word he wanted ta see me. He was in his office alone and I didn’t know what to expect. To my surprise he told me he satisfied with my pitching and especially glad that I hadn't anyone and that most of had got their hits after strikes on them. He told me to it easy and he would start me in a few days, The next chance I got was the Cubs, who were leading in the ninth when I went them out in order, and the put on a surprising rally in tl half to win, 8 to 7. ima big league victory, and though I pitched ‘cued inning I felt pretty ‘Three days later I got another ase signment, this time against the league-leading Cards.
