r Up-to-Date News'and Gossip ot Interest to Sport Fans Three Basket Contests on Tap Tonight Marquette Plays Creighton anti South Meets Prepmeu, While Omaha ‘Y’ Flips W ith lowans. GAMES TONIGHT. Marquette lit Creighton university. Western t nlon nt Omaha university. Central High at Sloui City, t reighton high against South at South. Teeh High at Lincoln. Nehrtiska at Oklahoma university (Nor man.) LL Omaha basket ball teams get into play tonight in scheduled contests. Three games are on the card for lo cal courts, while two quintets meet on out • of - town floors. The University of Nebraska team will flip the leather against the Uni versity of Oklahoma five at Norman tonight in a regular scheduled Mis sottri Valley game. the throe games on tap for *TOaha torjight, the Marquette-Creigh ton university contest is by far the most important. The Milwaukee five will invade Creighton with a well-sea soned quintet and one that has lost one game out of 11 played to date. Creighton has played one less game than Marquette. The Blue and White >hoopsters have engaged in 10 court i ngagements and have won nine of ‘them by good margins. Coach Schablnger of Creighton spent the week in teaching his pro teges new plays. These plays will be used against the Marquette cagers tonight, and if they are worked as well during the contest as they were in practice the spectators will see some pretty nifty basket ball. Schabinger wil sltart Captain Love ly and Trautman at forward positions with "Ike'' Maloney doing the Jump ing act. Hpeicher and I’aynter will be the watchmen. Another important mix down on the schedule for this evening is the South-Creighton high game at South high. While this Is a high school jtame and Creighton, by reason of its recent victory over Tech, is consid ered a big favorite, the Packers have spent a bard week practicing and are liable to provide plenty of competition for the Prepmen on the small court. Tech high Invades Lincoln tonight to play a return game ^vith the *• L,inks.” The Maroon hasketeers are rut after revenge. Early in the sea son the Lincoln high five trimmed the Tech squad of. the Creighton floor. This defeat at the hands of the Lin coln team still sticks In the throats of the Tech hoopsters and tonight the ***Piftmond charges expect to even up matters with outs talers. Coach Hill and his squad of Central players will Journey to Sioux City this morning whero they meet the Sioux City high in a game there tonight. ' \ Sioux City has a pretty strong team this winter and will no doubt give the jPurple of Omaha plenty to worry about. The Omaha University and Western Union play the second and final game of their series at the Pratt street gymnasium tonight. Hovt Vi ants to Stay With Yanks New Tor*. Feb. 8—Waite Hoyt, star pitcher of the Yankee*, is one of those who are happy because the proposed deal whereby Eddie Collins, second baseman of the White Pox, would come to New York, has not b*en completed. Hoyt arrived in T>w York yester day from San Francisco, the first of the team which toured tjie far east ^ this winter, to return to the metro polls. „„ "Have I been traded to Chicago, was the greeting he shouted when he i ushed Into the Yankee office*. "No. not yet.” • Well," he said, "that is about tlje test dews I have heard since com ing to this country." The pending deal would send Hoyt, Aaron Ward and Boh Meuse! to the Chicago team in exchange for Collins, Bib Falk and Charley Robertson. Plan < Jit*6S Tourney.

High Grade of Basket Ball Being Played in Bee League Ill'ilwin Si, llelililere 8. (olunililaii IS. Park II. Wadlwin 20 South Unooln S. Train 0, I omenlim 8. Teams competing in The Omaha Bee grade school basket ball tourna ment are at the top of their form and splendid competition developes in the majority of games. Frequent upsets have occurred and no team in'the tournament can boast a leg on the championship. Long, champions of 1922, is showing its old time class and is expected to reach the finals. The champions have de feated Farnam and Henry Yates, both formidable crews. Train, doped to de feat Comenius. came out on the small end of a 9 to 8 score at Train"igym. Train had previously beaten Bancroft, which had trimmed Comenius. The first half ended with Comenius leading. 6 to 5, and neat shooting by Marsuk kept his team in the lead in the second lap. Columbian beat Park in a hard fought game, 13 to 11. Parson and Aldera played best for the winners and Gorcek for the losers. The con test was neck and neck until Aldera broke the tie with a basket that won fer his mates. Madison took South Lincoln into camp to the tune of 22 to 8, after the first half ended. 8 to 4. Schworm starred for Madison with 14 points, and Hayes, center, played a snappy game. Barton of Lincoln collected two baskets. Benson won over Belvidere. 37 to *. in a one-sided affair. Wallin and Scholle, Benson forwards, accounted for 30 points. The Bensonites displayed splendid team work and with a pair of stellar forwards they are expected to be strong contenders. Dcrambled Sp®3Pt§ By “Wag” I (T7" 1D" 8CHLAIFER is going to 1^ Vie one busy bird this month -*-*-if the plans of his manager, Pat Boyle materialize. Tonight the “Kid" will poke his padded fists in the direc tion of one I>avc Shade. This Shade • Schlaifer affair Is another 10 - round bout scheduled for Du luth. When Shade battled Schlaifer in Omaha last, year the Califor nia welter made an ideal catcher out of the Omaha lad. That was sombe time ago. Sehlai fer has improved a little since then; he handles himself better In the ring; knows a little more about box ing and uses both hands to good ad \antage. « Shade is one clever welter. Just what he'll do to the “Kid” in Itu lulh no offc knows, hut it's a cinch he won't try to knock out Schlaifer. The “Kid’s” head is hard. Shade might break his Itand and If this should happen lie would kill the goose that lays the golden egg, so to speak. Following the Shade fight, Schlai fer is scheduled to meet Frankie Schoell in an Omaha ring. This bout Is another 10-round mill down for February 15. □TIOELL Is a clever lad. but Isn't blessed with the hitting power the "Kid" has. Judging from Schoell's fights in Omaha, he isn't very much of an aggressive fighter. Downey was the sggressoqp in the Schoell Downey scrap and Shade was the ag gressor in the Shade-Schoell mix. Schlalfer will be the aggressor in the Sehlalfer-Schoell fight, but It will be j another case of a clever boy and a . slogger In action. On Friday, February' !3, at Da» enport' la., Krhlaifrr is matrlied with Johnny Karr, Jimmy Dunn's hard-hitting Cleveland welter. This Karr is one tough lulu. He's got n bad disposition while in the ring nnd has a reputation of being an ag gressive welterweight. This Karr ran plunk a padded flst Into a man's midsertion with the next one and make him winee, with pain, say the boys who have seen Karr in art ion. KMtll recently stopped “Wildcat” Nelson of Brooklyn, one of the real tough fellows of the welter ranks in the east. And In view of the fact that this same Nelson won from Mickey Walker, the welter champion, on a foul in the nintli round in New York sometime ago. goes to prove that Nelson is a real battler. Karr has a good record. He haa never been knocked off his feet and has boxed all the good boys in the welter and middleweight ranks, al ways giving eight or ten pounds away. Johnny is a member of an Ameri ean I .eg ion post in Cleveland and during the recent world war served overseas with the 3<th Ohio. KARR waa decorated for his brav ery in the hatle of Chateau Thierry. While n member of the A. E. F. Karr engaged in many of the fights that were staged after the armi stice. Ho boxed on the same card with Bob Martin at Le Mann, France, when th* latter won his last heavy weight fight before entering the A. E. F. finals In gay Pare*.

Willard to Box Johnson May 12 m New York, Feb. S.—Jess Willard was today on the road to a return bout with Jack Dempsey to whom the Kansan lost the world's heavyweight boding championship in Toledo in .Jhly, 1919. Willard will meet Floyd Johnson, the 190-pound Iowa youth, who has created a sensation In heavy weight circles since his debut here last fall. Willard is being permitted to meet Johnson in a 15-round bout pt. the new Yankee stadium, May 12, be cause the hulk of the proceeds w ill go to the milk fund of_the mayor's com mittee of women, for which a char ity bout annually is held under the direction of Tex Ulckard. ^ The two boxers wilt get $25,000 each, but, outside of the milk fund, they are about the only ones who will profit. And all of tlielr pay — which is the minimum guarantee— will not be net profit as they will have heavy training expenses. Johnson) should he defest Willard, would be miles nearer a bout with Dempsey. Johnson was to have met Tom Gib bons of St. Paul in Madison Square Garden. March 19. but this bout was called off last night. Cleveland, O., Feb. S.—Jess Willard, former heavyweight champion of the world, wants to appear In an exhibi tion bout at the International Ama teur boxing tournament In Public hall here February 9. A letter received by the promoter of the tournament from Willard s mana ger said that Willard would appear with a sparring partner for 25 per cent of the gross receipt, together with one way traveling expenses for himself, manager and two seconds. Willard offers to come on "one way” tickets because the party de sires to start a western tour here, but the promoter declared today the start would have to be made some where else.

Creighton Captain Expected to Make All-Conference Eleven Creighton followers are predicting that Jimmy Lovely, captain of this year’s cage squad, will be chosen all conference forward in the North Cen tral conference, of which Creighton Is a member. Lovely has shown unusual ability as a forward in the seven conference games Creighton has competed. Against Schutte. stellar guard of South Dakota State, who probably will land a posit Ion on the mythical outfit, Lovely scored 22 points, and gave the State guard no end of trouble. His speedy passing is one of the fea tures of the Hilltop team's play, and on the defense he breaks up more plays than any other member of the quintet. Floyd Paynter, who is playing his last year with the Blue, at guard, Is also mentioned as a possible confer ence choice. His tight guarding has proved (o be the downfall of several s: rong teams that have played Creigh ton this year and last.
