THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1934 Represent City at State Meet Will Be Known To Quint ‘to — LOCAL FIVES CLASH FOR FIRST TIME IN GAME WEDNESDAY Bismarck High and St. Mary’s Play Wednesday Night at Auditorium ANTICIPATE CLOSE BATTLE Capital City Fans Agog Over Prospect of Witnessing Long-Awaited Tilt By 9 o'clock Wednesday night the basketball teams to represent Bis- marck at the Class A state high school basketball tournament here Friday and Saturday of next week, will be known. Bismarck high cagers and the St Mary's quint will meet for the first time this season in the game Wednes- ‘ day night at the World War Memorial auditorium. Play will begin at 8 o'clock. Officials for the contest will be Bernie Anderson, Moorhead, Minn. ‘and George McCain, Mohall. Music before and during the game will be furnished by the Bismarck high school band. Coach Roy D. McLeod will have on the starting lineup for the Demons, Gordon Engen or John Cameron, and Oliver’ Sorsdahl, forwards; Larry Schneider, center; and Billy Owens and Bud Kanz, guards. With Art Hulbert out of play be- cause of an appendicitis attack Satur- day, Coach George L. Hays is expect- ed to start John Boelter at the center position. Urban Hagen and Frank Lee, at the forward posts, and Tommy Lee and Bob Murphy, in the back court, will complete the starters. @. Mary's supporters are less opti- ™mistic about the outcome of Wednes- day’s game with the lanky pivot man out of play. Hulbert, with his height and floor generalship, has proven himself a valuable cog in a smooth- working cage machine. Hagen, who has been playing a lot ef good ball for the parochial school five, will not be able to replace Hul- bert’s height, but he will require care- ful guarding. He has done a lot of scoring in the contests he has been in this year. The Demon defense will concen- trate on Frank Lee, who has copped scoring honors in almost every game this year. Schneider, Sorsdah! and Owens are expected to cause the Saints plenty of trouble. These three players have vied with one another all season for tallying honors, and are hard men to watch. The Demons are 2 fighting, fast- mee crew, a hard combinaion to at.

D, March 7.-(>}—In ‘an slmost flawless exhibition of bas- Ketball which ended the conference ®eason for both teams, Jamestown College defeated Dickinson Teachers here Tuesday night, 35 to 30. The locals took the lead in the first period and again in the second half, the scores at no time during the game differing by more than a few points. The half ended 19-17 for Jamestown, Hall's tipoff from center played an important part in the outcome. He also was the Jimmie’s principal scor- ing threat, collecting five field goals and s trio of free throws. Larimer Ted the Dickinson attack with 11 points to his credit.

National League pennant again this! year. We'll have the same lincup as far as regulars are concerned. Terry; may have done a little trading with | his reserves and we'll have the usual | new supply of “rookies” bidding for! berths, but none of the old faces will be absent. We have a young club. Most of our players are still on the sunn: side of their playing prime and there’ No reason why we shouldn't all get a Mttle better than last year. Bill Terry is another good reason why the Giants must be figured as “the team to beat.” Terry's a fine! leader and as long as he’s handling} the Giant's, they're going to have the| right spirit and the determination to! win, i eee Schumacher and Parmelee should be even more effective than last year and my old roommate, Fred Fitzsimmons, can always be counted on for victories. I hope to continue taking my turn] on the mound. Our most dangerous contender, I believe, will be the Chicago Cubs. Th have “Chuck” Klein from the Phillies. “Kiki” Cuyler, who broke his leg early last season, will be back in there and with Babe Herman the third man in the outfield, they'll have a powerhouse What's more they have some great Pitchers in Bush and Warneke Pittsburgh, runner-up last season will be hard to beat again. They've added “Red” Lucas on a trade with Cincinnati and “Red” will give them the one more good pitcher they need | to make them strong in every depart. | ment. The Pirates are like the Giants in a lot of ways—they’re full of hustle and fight and those Waner boys must be considered all the time. From here on, it’s hundred per cent guess work. The only team that I firmly believe will be in there fight- ing for top place is the Giants and they'll have tougher going all the way because everyone will he pointing for | them instead of standing by and say- ing “it can’t last.” as they did in 1923. Who was the mast valuable man for | the Giants last season? Star Hurt Expect chicago CANDO JOINS REGION LEADERS I think Bill Terry was by far the most valuable individual on our club. I've !seen a lot of players made managers and Terry was the first one able to make the change without letting it hurt him any. Time and again, I've seen llakable fellows put into a manager's job and each time something happens to them. They tighten up. They feel that they have to drive their team and they build up a wall between them-} selves and their players. Bill Terry, however, didn't take it like that. He just went on being nat. ural and likeable and LED instead of trying to DRIVE. ee After Terry, I'd put Mancuso. He did a lot more than just catch. He nursed the pitching staff along and brought out the best in all of us. Pitch- ers rarely “shook off” a signal he called. I don’t believe Schumacher or Parmelee ever did refuse to throw what he called for. I know that Fitzsimmons or I rarely did. After those two, I find it hard to say. Probably Mel Ott. He got hits’ when they were needed, and during} the series his two homers were most important in the eventual outcome. Outside of his ability, Mel is one swell kid His two mates in the outfield are both good young players with a lot) of fight and fielding ability. Neither) Moore nor Davis are as heavy slug- gers as some of the outfielders in the circuit, but they're young and their greatest days are ahead. As for our infield, that Blondy Ryan is a wonder. Not one boy in a thousand could have come into the big show and held up like he did. Hughie Critz at second played a bril- lant game all year and topped it off with some great stops in the series. Johnny Vergez didn’t get to play in the series, but he was going great un- til his hard luck set in When Johnny went to the hospital, our success depended on Jackson's “props” holding out and they did it. You never would have suspected that he was ailing. I'm not going to say anything about our pitchers—we. had effective starters and some reliable If you don't exclude the manager. | relief hurlers but the records tell the story about them.

The Dickinson squad is one of the Class B quints contesting the right of the Class A teams in its district for the right to enter the state meet. The other two challengers are St. Mary's, Bismarck, who play Wednesday night against the Bismarck high school cag- ers; and Wahpeton high school, play. ing Fargo high Saturday. With 31-16 and 22-21 victories al. ready scored over the Braves this year, the Midgets enter the contest with an edge. However, the Mandan hoopsters have been a@ determined group in games this Season, and prom. ise a tough battle. Defeats this season have been dis- couraging for the Braves, but with each game they have displayed bet- ter form. Coach Leonard ©. McMa- han’s five are expected to hit their fastest pace in Thursday's competi- tion. Braves Are Determined Ralph Ferderer, Barney Toman, Frank Stumpf, Bill Ordway, Jack Shinners, Donald Reynolds and Roe Percy plan to hand the Class B chal- lengers a drubbing. They believe they are the ones to break Dickinson's string of wins, and are heartened by the fact that the Midgets were only able to nose them out by one point in their last meeting. Everett Cox and John Robertson, forwards; Warren McKenzie, center; and Osmund Baggenstoss and Char- les Agnew, guards, are expected to be- gin play for the Dickinson cagers. Coach Charles T.

Stoker has consented to meet Blanchette in the International Boxing meet, featuring the ama- teur champions of Winnipeg and the University of North Dakota fighters. The Canadians lack a heavyweight, and Mr. Stoker, who weighs in the neighborhood of 250 pounds, has consented to fill the vacancy. It has been rumored around and about that Stoker allows his C. C. C. playmates to jump up and down on his stomach to strengthen the abdominal muscles, thus making him one tough hombre to injure. “But what,” ask the fans in this vicinity, “does he do to strengthen his chin?” Minneapolis, will add Weldon Chand- ler, state flyweight champion, and Ray Baker, East Grand Forks feather- weight. ‘Three of the Canadian squad, featherweight Billy Marquardt, wel- terweight Maurice Camyree, and lightweight Ted Keating are Domin- ion champions, while two others, mid- have totaled 919.

Battaglia ere champions of the Province of Manitoba. Lou Care rier, lightweight, and Sammy Lobe, flyweight, are Winnipeg champions. ‘A special heavyweight match has been arranged due to the Canadian’s lack of a competitor in this division. Ralph Stoker, gigantic C. C. C. work- er from Bemidji, Minn., weighing 250 pounds, will meet Ben Blanchette, University heavy who won the dia- mond belt and golden gloves titles this year. The invading team represented Winnipeg in the international bouts in London, where it made a creditable showing. Coach Howard Russell's University squad has gained recogni- tion, too, for its strength, and should battle the Canadians on even terms. ‘The interest of the boxing fans will center on the middleweight fight, which will feature Kenny Brown, win- ner of the diamond belt and golden gloves tournaments and generally re- garded as the best amateur fighter in the Northwest, and Steve Olinkin, champion of the Province of Mani- toba. Brown's terrific right punch, which has scored knockouts in three- fourths of his 29 fights, is his fore- most weapon. Beulah Beats Dunn Center in Regionals (Special to the Tribune) Beulah, N. D.

Y., and Willowy Horton Smith of Chicago, Wednesday faced an opportunity to shatter a long. standing precedent, on top of their record-breaking exploits this week in the international four-ball tourna. ment at the Miami country club. No team has ever won the event twice since it was established as an annual fixture in 1926. Smith and Runyan won the 1933 tournament and they were favored to repeat in the 36-hole final against Denny Shite of Philadelphia, the British open cham- pion, and his Castilian partner, Al Espinosa of Akron, Ohio. ‘Walter Hagen, the old warrior who fas blasted out of the tournament Tuesday along with Creavy of Albany, N.
