THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1936 Unbeaten Wops to Invade West for Two Week- DEMON FOLLOWERS HOPE HISTORY WILL REPEAT ON FRIDAY Marty Engh’s Quint, Victors 12 Straight Tilts, Top N. D. Ranking DICKINSON IS UNDEFEATED | Three Wahpeton Lettermen Give: Invaders Fine Combina- tion This Year Bismarck fans wil be given one of the biggest treats of the current high school basketball season here Friday might when Glenn Hanna's Demons clash with Marty Engh’s Wahpeton quint. The Wops, undefeated in 11 consec- uutive games played in two states, and the top-ranking team in the newly- expanded Class A group, invade the ‘western part of the state for games with the Maroon and White Friday nd the Mandan Braves Saturday. Followers of the Demon destinies fre reminded of the western trip of tthe Wops last year in wich they bowed to both Bismarck and Mandan on successive nights after making a wemarkable showing during the early season. A field goal in the second overtime period by Neil Croonquist provided the Demons with a 31-29 victory in one of the best cage exhibitions seen here for some time. This year, at last, the Wops rank at the top of the North Dakota prep heap with victories over Fargo, Devils Lake, Grafton, Grand Forks and Jamestown, already under their belts. Three Vets in Lineup Coach Engh has three members of the first five that carried the Wops to the finals of the state Class A tournament. They are Rife and Smith, forwards, and Lafournaise, guard. ‘Veteran reserves, who have moved into the starting lineup this season ere Schwarzrock, guard, and Callan. forward. Wilson, stellar guard, and ‘Napavnik, rangy center, were lost through graduation. Three of the Demons who last year contributed to the surprise victory over the Wops are back this year. Buddy Beall and Bob Peterson, guards, and Jim McGuiness, center or for- ward, are the three who had part in the Bismarck victory. Hanna's new combination with Beall and McGuiness at forwards. Bob Tavis at center, and Peterson and “Fat” Elofson at guards, tried for the first time in the Mandan game, may get the starting call again Friday night but a strong possibility also ex- ists that the coach may revert to the former lineup with Helmuth Claus- nitzer and Johnny Abbott in the fore court, McGuiness at center and Pet- erson and Beall or Elofson in the back court.

Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, Jan, 29.—(NEA)—Not since the or- ganization of the winter Olympic games in 1924 has a member of the United States team won a ski event. Despite this showing, however, 21 members of the Yankee squad are Practicing on the new Olympic ski jump here, and on downhill and sla- Jom courses nearby, full of confi- dence that they'll spzing a few sur- prises on the giant men from the} north country. It is only natural to presume that) the hardy runners from Sweden, Noz- way, and Finland again will rule fav- orites in four ski events to be run off here Feb. 6-16. The sport origin- ated in Sweden and, according to his- torians who have traced the ski, it 1s supposed to be more than 4000 years} old. The wooden runners have been a common mode of travel in the north countries for centuries, and it is re- corded that at the battle of Oslo, in 1200 A. D., King Swerre sent out a company on skis. Today wood cutters in the three countries have proved to be the! world’s best skiers, because they con- stantly are using this form of travel to get to their camps. Americans, because they have no use for skis oth- er than in sport, are in no way as ex- Pperienced as the north men. Dartmouth Bolsters Yanks To illustrate the superiority of the skiers from the three north countries, Johan Grotteumsbraaten, of Norway, annexed the 1932 combination event, as he did in 1928; Utterstrom, of Swe- den, won the 18-kilometer race at Lake Placid; Veli Saarinen, of Fin- land, won the 50-kilometer event, as he did in 1928; Utterstrom, of Swe- den, won the 18-kilometer. About all that can be said of the Yankee team is that it probably is the best ever to represent this coun- try, and that it is full of the old fight. Five of the members are products, of Dartmouth College, where skiing U. S. SKI TEAM HOPES TO END FAMINE IN OLYMPIC VICTORIES: first became a popular sport in the} U. S. Heading the list from ee school is Dick Durrance, of Tarpon Springs, Fla., who learned skiing at Garmisch-Fartenkirchen, and who is the only one of the American team acquainted with the local layout. Durrance is America’s most versa- tile skier, He won the Olympic com- bined slalom and downmountain try- outs, finishing second in the former and first in the latter. Other stars of the Yankee array are Paul Ottar Satre, of Salisbury, Conn., who finished first in the Olym- pic trials for combined event, and his brother, Karl Magnus, who has won the national cross-country title four times; Casper Oimoen, of Anaconda, ; Mont., who captained the 1932 Olym- pic squad, and who finished fifth in the Olympic jump; and Rolf Monsen, of Lake Placid, member of the U. S. teams in 1928 and 1932, who finish- | ed sixth in the jump in ’28, and ninth |in the combined event in 1932. Although ski jumping’ is the divi-| sion most publicized in the United! States, the other three contests, ‘langlauf,” “slalom,” and combined! “langlauf” and jumping, play just! as important parts in the final stand- ing of the teams. The “langlauf” contest is racing on the level, and “slalom” is downhill and around turns. Norsemen Given Edge Norway again comes to the games with the favorite jumpers. Ruud, who holds the world record of 301 feet, again will compete, and will be assisted by Reide Andersen, Alf An- dersen, and Hans Beck. Their chief competition is expected to come from Sven Eriksson, of Sweden, and Val- onen, the Finn. The new jump erected for the Olympics is at the egress of the Part- nach gorge, near here. It has a tower of 141 feet, and a run of 230 feet, per- mitting, with a 35-degree grade, jumps up to 300 feet. Initial speed after the jump-off is from 72 to 75 feet a second. The record jump from the slide so far is 275.6 feet, set by Scerensen, of Norway. NEXT: Hockey.

After the fight, Ramey, a muscular little fellow who never stops punching when within range, had a few words to say about the lightweight champion whom he outpointed in a non-title bout in 1933. “I licked him once and I can do it again,” he said. “We are both get- ting old, as far as fights are con- cerned, but I am better than I ever 'was and I think he is going back.” poe ere ee re Os || Fights Last Night | |van. -.-—— ¢ (By the Associated Press) New York — Wesley Ramey, 13414, Grand Rapids, Mich., out- pointed Eddie Cool, 135, Philadel- phia, (10).
