Central and Tech High Basket Ball Quintets Meet in Annual Game Today Contest Will Be Played on Creighton Floor Both Teams About Evenly Matched on Defense— t Purple Plays Faster Floor Game. HE annual Central Tech basket ball i game, a contest Omaha cage fans have been itching to see ever since the great indoor sport grabbed a hold here this win ter. will be staged this afternoon at the Creighton gymnasium. The game is scheduled to start | at 2:30 this after noon, when Ref eree Ernie Adam* calls the two op posing centers to their respective po sitions in the center of the court. Coach Hill of Central has developed a strong aggregation of high school 1 basket tossers, while Coach Drum- j t^’niond has been working with a bunch of inexperienced hoopsters who should show the veteran HlUtoppers a clever ; brand of tossing. The Maroons are con- | s.clered the “dark horse” of City high j school cage circles, and should the i bookkeepers show the brand of floor work they did against Creighton a few weeks ago. when the Blue Prep sters barely won a 26 to 23 decision, Central’s artists had better be at their treat if they expect to turn back the j Drummers. _ I Central has won from South high once, while the Maroons have met and defeated the Packers twice. Creighton Prep has trimmed both quintets. It took Council Bluffs two extra periods to turn back the Bus iness lads, while Central holds even terms with the Bluffmen with a win ! apiece. The Black and White records show the two teams to he on about even terms, but it is a known fact that the Purple displays a faster floor game than do the Penmen. However, this afternoon’s fray will be a Wash ington's birthday treat’ for anyone with some classy hopowork on card no matter which team gets the decision.

Magnates Cant Agree on Games Chicago, Feb. 21.—After a two day session devoted principally to dis cussion of a 1923 schedule, owners of the Western league adjourned last night without adopting one. Two schedules were submitted, but neither proved satisfactory to a majority of the members who adjourned to meet in Kansas City on March 5 to further consider the matter. In the meantime, John Savage, bus iness manager of the Kansas City club of the American association, was retained by the league to draw up two schedules, one of 154 games, and the other 188 games, to be submitted at Kansas City and embodying fea tures which a majority of the mem bers believed should be incorporated. One of the schedules considered here was presented by Jack Holland of the Oklahoma City club, and the other was drawn up by Barney Burch of the Omaha club. Most of the members favored a 18* game schedule and it was virtually de cided to open the season April 1* or 19.
