Central Cagers To Clash With Tech Tomorrow Both Teams on Edge for the Annual Struggle—Game Should Prove to Be Thriller. I Omaha basket ball fans have a cage treat In store for them Thursday af ternoon when the Technical Maroons and the Central High quintet clash in their annual battle. The game will be called at 3:30. The annual Terli-C'entral fracas is generally considered the classic of the local high school season, and tomor row's game should be a thriller. •.Hoth squads have had (heir ups apd downs throughout the season. The Ik'ummondites started out in poor style, hut have been gradually whip ping into shape. Central has also played ragged ball1 this season. Victories chalked up against Idgcoln, Technical, Fremont, and the strong Sioux City five arc offset by corresponding defeats count ed against them by Lincoln, Fremont, Creighton, South, and Sioux City. In the seven battles between the two schools in the last five years. Central has a one-game edge on the Maroons, having won four chntests to the Techstefa three. Both coaches \till he able to present their strong est lineups for the fray. '•‘Manny" Robertson, husky Purple forward, who has been warming the bench for several weeks because of ineligibility, will appear in a Capitol avenue suit tomorrow. Coach “Zip" Hill will probably use him at center, keeping the Marrow-Church combina tion intact. , The Technical lineup is uncertain, .although Coach Drummond will prob ably capitalize the freshness of "Buck" Crabb. who has been out of W Maroon suit because of ineligibility, at the forward berth opposite Charn quist. This will give the Maroons the same lineup which copped state honors last year. • Creighton University basket ball coach. A. A. •Scfiabinger, will referee the big game. ( ' The probable lineup: - Central Technical Marrow .rf. Charnqulst Church .If. Crabb Robertson . •.e. Zust ha arson .r». Swanson Oerellek .Is. Holm i Chadron to Play j Omaha U Tonight Tonight the cage debate between Omaha University and Chadron nor mal will be decided on the Omaha court. J Coach Adams has labored faithfully with a green squad, until at last he believes he has a team that is dan gerous to any In the state confer ence, though far from perfect. Chadron is on a five-game trip this week, with Wayne Normal Monday, Midland Tuesday, Omaha Wednesday, Doane Friday and Peru Saturday. The loss of their game Monday .night to Wayne by a 20-12 score, points towards a close battle tonight, as' Wayne recently tipped Omaha ovgr, 20-7. The close followers of the Maroons in their rapid improvement, however, are predicting a victory for the Red and Black. .Verne Moore will be referee.

By DAVIS J. W ALSH. EW YOKK. Feb. 19.—To the ac companiment of reports that the gentleman In question was a visitor to our fair city 'over the week end. the Ed die Collins deal arose from the dead today and marched boldly into the light of day, where all might see and ad mire. The resur rection came about as an aftermath of the attempt ed resignation of Frank Chance as manager of the White Sox, the idea being that the latter's “illness” was caused by Corniskey's failure to go through with a deal Chance all but closed with the Yankees, with Collins involved. The deal is said on very good au thority to calj for tlie transfer of Pitcher Waite Hoyt, Inftelder Ever ett Scott and Alike McNally and Outfielder Harvey Hendrick to Chi cago for Collins and possibly an other player, identity not disclosed. • It, aomehow, did not find favor with Comiskey and other White Sox of ficials, it is said, and according to the wise men of the east, Chance waited patiently for them to countenance the transaction before resigning. He i* "feeling better” today, according to advices from Los Angeles and this fact Is taken to mean here that Com iskey Is waiving his alleged objections to the transfer of Collins and has noti fied Chance to that effect. If Chance attempted to make • deal for Collins and was thwarted it is not difficult to believe that he became “ill.” He thrives on inter ference just as finger nails thrive on misdirected mallets. □L< Bl-OOM la a duck hunter of enthusiasm hut a short time ago he waa Inveigled Into going on a * coon hunt, lie and a hunch of fellows went out Into the wood/* and alter /■training their eye* and dik ing miles and miles, there on a Mg Umb they spied a big racoon.

In recent years, a big bat firm has specialized In making the swat sticks to tho players’ measure. This firm, has a model of each player, so that when an athlete breaks a hickory, he requests his manager t« replenish his stock. When the average batter loses his bats, he feels lonesome. Ofttinies he will pick up a teammates stick which itsponds right and then he will pro ceed to get a "case" on the particular model. The practice of pitchers breaking the bats of' their teammates is some thing which riles the average player. The average pitcher is not a good hit ter, but one of these gents thinks 'nothing of going to the plate with the favorite possession of some .330 bat ter. Either they do not hold the bat correctly, or something else happens that allows the liats to splinter as they hit the I<all. It’s pretty tough to see a ,120-hlttlng pitcher ruin a prized bat of a real swatter. Out for Records v--/ Johnny Weismullrr t- I 1 B Hob Skrllon. Harold Krueger.
