rHESE young men, Creighton’*

Cleon Stewart is the most prom
ising man of the squad. Ha is
present holder of the collegiate rec
ord of Kansas for the 440-yard
clash and has been showing some
fast foot work on the Blue oval of
late.
"Foxy" Byrne Is a last year’s let
ter man. His specialty is distances
and his work this year is showing
much Improvement over that of
last season.
Lower, the speedy ’halfback of
the gridiron squad, promises to be
the Bluejay's mainstay in the dash
department. This is Lower’s first
year of track at Creighton ss he
was r freshman last year hut he
promises to become the find of the
year In the Blue camp.

Coach of North Dakota Bisons Says
Bluejays Best Team He Has Ever Seen
By “WAG."
ITH another
North Intercol
legiate victory
tucked safely
away in the rec
ords, the crack
Creighton unlver
sity Bluejays will
resume practice
this afternoon as
llnal. preparation
for the game with
the University of
Neitr aska here
Kritlay night.
The Bluejays
Tuesday night on
their own floor
defeated the North Dakota Aggies, 34
to 15, In one of the best games
that has been played at Creighton
this season. The Bisons from up
north tried hard to break into tbe
Creighton defense and team work,
but the Bluejays were too speedy In
all departments of the game for the
visitors.
Coach Dewey of Nortlf Dakota
had nothing hut praise for Creigh
ton. Following the game he told
the writer that Creighton had the
best basket ball team he has ever
seen in action, and Dewey Is a
veteran coarli of basket hall teams,
lie has seen many quintets in Ac
tion front the east to the west
coast.
One of the best basket ball officials
in the Missouri valley also told your
humble servant that the Creighton
team Is the best he has ever seen
play’.
The way the Bluejays played
against the Bisons earned them the
title of the "wonder team'' of the
west in basket ball. Team work
and guarding that routed the enemy
from tlie start, was the feature of
Creighton's play.
Ike Mahoney Stars.
Only a small crowd turned out to
see the BHfeJaya peek away nt thej
Blsons, hut. those who rli«1 attend saw
a Creighton tram play ns well as any
Creighton quintet has ever played on
its own gymnasium floor. It was the
all around floor work of "Ike" Ma
honey, Captain Jimmy Lovely ami
Joe Bpeieher, latter n. guard, that
spelled defeat for the visitors. Hpeich
er turned hack many a Jilson play,
while Lovely and Mahoney broke up
numerous attempts of the Jrtvaders
to dribble through the Creighton de
fense.
Unlike the game against North l)a
kota university, when he didn’t cage
a basket from the field, Mahoney
succeeded In copping the individual
.‘coring honors la/* night, hanging up
five field goals. Bis nearest rival
was Captain Jimmy Lovely, who
floored four goals.
The Aggies played hard enough,
hut it was the same old story of one
team unable to break through the
five man defense of another and t lie
good teamwork of one overshadow
mg the other. The Bison* played In
streaks, and when those streaks came
they played as good «- brand of has
ket hall as thelt opponents.
Blakely, the sorrel topped Aggie
center, was the outstanding player
a
on the Bison five. “Krcl,” ns he is
railed, played a pood guarding game
and was able to Moore three baskets,
one with one hand. Arnold, at left
guard, also played a fine game.

squad. Winklcman and Chambers,
Midland si a is, are also Fremont boys.

was felt, however, when Midland fell
before the Cotner Bulldogs. Ills
guarding and sensational floor work
will lie missed until the new combina
tion Is formed and perfected.

Third Place of
Olympic Sports
Norway anti Finland Ahead
of United States at Und of
Fifth Day of inter
Sports.
By Associated Press.
Chamonix, Jan. 30. —Hockey, ski
ing, fancy skating anil curling occu
pied the attention of contestants In
the Olympic winter sports today. The
Canadian hockey team defeated
Switzerland, 33 to ft: Kngland defeated
Belgium, 20 to 0; the United States
won from France, 22 to 0.
Thus Canada, hy defeating the
three nations opposed to her in the
upper half of the draw, has already
earned the right to play against the
winner in the lower half, in which
the 1 nited States and Kngland are
tied for first place with three vic
tories each. The tie will be broken
tomorrow when these two teams
meet for a decision.
A feature of today's games was the
ski marathon race, in which 34 con
tested, representing 11 countries. The
American skiiers decided not to start
because of lack of practice. The, mara
thon was won by the Norwegian star,
Thorlief Haug, who covered the 60
kilometers in 3 hours. 44 minutes and
32 seconds, remarkable time in the
great snow drifts in the mountains.
In this event four Norwegians fin
ished In the first four places, while
Sweden captured the fifth and sixth
places.
In the fancy skating competition
for men, the final choice !av between
Grafstrom of Sweden and Boeckl of
Austria, who were in the lead yester
da}’, when the set figures were con
tested. The competition comprised
free figure skating, with the advsn
tage on the side of the Swedish rep
resentative. Nathaniel W. Niles,
Boston, was awarded sixth place.
Muny Officer
for Rule Change
That the classification of plajers in
the Municipal Baseball association is
unfair to a number of playen and
'hat a revision should be made in the
rule classifying players, is the opin
ion of Johnny lAenmson, secretai y cf
the organization.
At present players are divided into
three classes, namely, A, B, and C.
Players in each class are determined
by their eligibility to play and also
to their ability.
It is Dennison's contention the rul
ing favors a number of players ar.d
at the same time works a hardship
on others, lie favors reducing the
present classification to two classes,
namely. Senior and Junior.
All players over IS would be eii
gible to play in the Senior class, w hile
those under 18 would come under the
Junior classification.
AVIth the new classification, ability
would be no consideration and anv
player over IS would get a chance
to play with class A teams.
It is thought with the new- ruling in
effect, certain cliques would be broken J
up, and with these players on differ
ent teams it would be cause for a;
more uniform brand of ball to be j
played and would be of betterment to |
the association.
