, Entry List in Annual Nebraska State Basket Ball Tourney Swelled to 236 Teams . ■ ■ iii — ■ — . - -■ ■■■■ ■ ■ . ■ » ■■ ' Two More Teams Enter Big 1923 Cage Classic Omaha Central and Lincoln Look Like Real Conten d e r s for Cham pionship. WO more teams en tered the state bas ket bait tourna ment, swelling the total to 236, accord ing to reports from Lincoln. Thursday morning the open ing whistles sound on the various courts and Satur day night a new champion of Ne braska high school basket ball will be crowned. 53 Inability to piny tinder pressure, the sort of pressure which is common to all tournament play in any sport, has cost many a championship team the litle and next to baseball, basket ball develops the most unexpected happen ings. Omaha Central and Lincoln look like the real contenders for class "A" honors. In a home-and-home series these two teams withdrew with a 1 game each. Creighton Prep seems to ' he in a slump. After taking the Omaha c ity title Creighton pulled out j with a one point lead against Platts- { mouth. That doesn't indicate chain- - pionship form. The western part of the state is well represented this year. Sidney, Sutherland, ^Jorth Platte and Alli ance comprise a foursome of west ern quintets which may factor in the , finals. Omaha Tech meets North Platte in the first round of play and the winner of this game meets the winner of the Beatrice-Wahoo clash. Central meets Sidney in the initial game and the winner of this game meets tho winner of the Alliance Hastings game. A recheck of the classifications Monday morning brought about a few changes. Ainsworth meets Talmago • in class "G,” Beaver Crossing being placed against Glenville in class "L." The Overton team will be unable to attend, so Brady was placed against Murdock in class "M.” Through the changes. Cathedral High of Lincoln will have to play in order to make the second round of class "O." The first pairings put tho Cathedral ft Vo against a bye, but Henderson lias been placed in this bracket. ;l ArATEX i; : _ SEMI-SOFT : !i Collars 11 Will not wilt, crease, curl or fray ) | I • Appear stiff, are soft.

By DAVIS 4. WALSH International »w* Srrikr Sport* Kdltor. New Vork, March 4.—For the flint time in nine years Connie Lugubrious Mack can be favored to finish higher than eighth in the American league because he is deemed to have mustered sum ~icnt strength, af- 1 :er seasons of ex perimenting. to outlast the Bos ton Red Sox, if none other. Cornelius has tried more com binations . than a Monte Carlo gambler since breaking up his ! world a champion- V. ^ " — ■hip outfit before CONNIE mack the 1915 season. 1 He,d o( AthleUol his efforts have been unproductive. On the other hand, he would have had a real ball club today had be stood pat and allowed his original bets to ride. Supose. for example, neither trade nor purchase had tempt'd him. He would then be able, barring acci dents, to announce the following as hi« lineup for the opening game of the 1923 season: THEY WERE RELEASED. Pilcher, Joe Kush, one of the lead ing right handers In the game last year; eateher, Steve O'Neill, still one of the topnotehers; first base. Stuffy Melnnis; second base. Eddie CiHlins. who tops them all at 36: shortstop, Larry Kopf; third base. Joe Dugan, the beet in baseball; outfl'ldecs—( bar ley Jamieson, Amos Strunk and Whitey Witt. So much for the opening day line up. For the next game he could call on Bob Shawkey. Herb pennock, Stan ley Coveleakie, Hoy Moore, Rube Brassier, Dana Filinglm and John AVatson to pitch and Wally S'-hang, Walter Schmidt. Val Picinich or Glenn Mvatt to fill behind the plate—surely the finest set <>f battery strength in the land. In case of Injuries to his front l!n» forces I'ornelms would onlv need to glance down along the bench to finj George Rurns. first baseman and out fielder: [do Lit van and Eddie Fos ter. inflcldcrs. and I.irrv Gardner and Frank Raker, pinch hitters. Quite a ball club at that- So good in fact, that it would figure to run one. two, three In any man a league. Yet It was given away virtually by a man who gives only until It hurts, therefore gives noth ng. Cornelius must have been painfully Injured many times during recent years, f r he now has nothing to show for all his trades and deals with e'hei major league clubs unless :t I* the solace of an increased Imnk ue a nee.

Methods of Gripping Clubs By. STANLEY DAVIES. THERE ate three methods of grip ping a golf club, the Vardon grip, the palm grip, and the in terlocking grip. One can cite master* of the game to illustrate each of | the methods. The Vardon grip, used by TIagen, Barnes, Vardon, Taylor. Braid and j Hutchison, Is the roost common. The ! itft hand has command of the club,, fingers and thumb gripping firmly, i hut not tense. The first finger and thumb of the right hand have a firm hold, the little finger overlapping the forefinger of the left hand, and the other two fingera lightly resting on the shaft This allows the Jeft hand and wrist to rotate, enabling the club to be in correct position at1 the top of the swing, that Is, the nose of the club head pointing towards the ground. Assuming a full swing has been tgken, the club being at the horizontal at the top of the swing, it is this : turning of the club head < with the hands, wrists and forearms, on the back stroke, that is essential to the correct position at the top of the swing. Vardon Grip Best. The Vardon grip is more apt to a! low* this correct turning for the rea son that only the first finger and thumb of the right hand are really gripping, thus allowing the left wrist and forearm to turn. Gripping tensely with the right hand is incorrect and effects the en tire swing and .timing becomes im possible, it being only possible to lime the stroke when the hands are In a correct position at the top of the swing. Hearn to grip firmly, but not tensely. In my estimation it is the best grip for the majority of golf players, because in the other grips one 1* so apt to have the right hand grip ping too tightly and incorrect grip ping la too often the cause of bad shots. I do not wish to intimate that one shold keep to the Vardsn grip, but I do think that one should u»e this method while learning and if they think they can get more power from the other methods, change aft- , ei wards. Select Natural Grip. Changing a grip can be accomplish ed by practice. The palm and Interlocking grip are apt to cause the club head to be In a choked position at the top of the swing and until the golfer has learned to let the club head turn gradually on the up swing, he had far better let these two forms of gripping the club alone. The cause of this choked position of the club head is gripping too tiglftly by r.ght, hand. The palm grip is the grip used by three fine British players, Abe Mitch ell. Harold Milton and bandy Herd. The club t« gripped by both palms, the forefinger and thumb of each hard form a V shape down the cen ter of the shaft. In the interlocking gr p used by Gene Saraaen and Kraneis Ouirnet. the little finger of the right hand is interlocked under and around the first finger of the left hand.
