Creighton showed good basket ball form at Marquette, especially in the first game which it won by a good margin. The second game went to the Hilltoppers of Milwaukee, 20 to IS in a contest wher the "breaks were all against the Bluejays. In playing Des Moines, Creighton meets one of the strongest teams in the conference.

Of the seven games scheduled for Omaha teams tills week, six of them will be played in this city. The Ne braska School for (he Deaf has a game scheduled at Plattsmouth high Friday nig lit.

Husker Prospects Oil Cinder Path Appear Bright Coach Schulte Satisfied With Showing Made by Athletes at Kansas City. Lincoln, Feb. 11.—Watcli Missouri and Kansas ill track tills season. I likewise it might be well to keep an eye on Nebraska. Coach Henry Schulte sounded those suggestions—or warnings—upon his return from Kansas City and the K. C. A. C. indoor meet there, where lit. had his first eliance to see not only liow the Missouri valley stacks up on the cinders this season, hut likewise liow Ills Nebraska charges act under fire. “Wo didn't do much. Kut I'm mighty well satisfied with thn show ing made in view of the handicaps we have suffered, due to weather conditions here, which has made training almost impossible,’’ Coach Schulte said. He cited an example which illus trates the situation. The best Kd Weir had been able to do over the 50-yard low hurdles here was 7:1, or a slow seven. He was nosed out in the semi-finals of this event at Kan sas ICity, but lie stepped the distance in 0 3-3 seconds. Turner and Lynns Slimv Well. In the high jump, Hobb Turner and Bill Lyons, the latter a Nebras ka freshman, went out at 5 feet 11 inches. Tom Poore was the only col lege entry to better this mark arid he went 6 feet 1 inch. In the half mile, Dean Higgins started 1 tth in a big field and fin ished third. Dickson, Nebraska en try, running the first mile race of his career, turned in a 4:55, and Poach Schulte is confident he will get this mark lowered. In the pole vault, Davis, Nebraska, tied for third place at It feet S Inches. There were no college entries which beat that, the winners being K. C. A. C. athletes. Missouri won from the Huskers In the mile relay. Bloodgood, Wipper rnan. Prites and Layton formed the Nebraska team in the order named. Ped Hartman, Nebraska, got four of the best puts with the shot that have ever been recorded for him this early in the season. He placed fourth with a toss of 41 feet 9 inches. "It appears right now that the Missouri valley track meet, to be held here in May, will see a great fight between Missouri, Kansas and Ne braska. And that goes also for the valley Indoor meet to he held In March at Kansas City," Coach Schulte stated. Hein, Nebraska, won from Layden. Notre Dame's flashy baekfield grid ace, in the preliminary heat of the r.O-yard dash. Irwin, who later won the event, beat Bloodgood in a great i ace while Locke, Nebraska, was winning his heat from Lindsay of Oklahoma. Hein went out In the semi-finals, but I.ocke kept in the running by winning his heat In 5L seconds. In the finals the Nebraska sprinter placed third. The next competition on the Ne braska track program is the Illinois relay meet at Urbana, March 1. In order to stimulate interest in the cinder sport. Poach Schulte is planning a "track matinee'' for every Tuesday afternoon during the season. At these times regular events will be run off and he Is preparing an in vitation which will be mailed to sev eral hundred people. The first of these "matinees'' will t,e held this afternoon.

Lincoln’s Prospective Baseball Manager Howard .1. Wakefield. At the left Is the man who will direct the Lincoln Western league baseball club, provided the cam paign to raise $30,000 goes over, and the other man In the picture is well known to Omaha fans. It was the presence of Wakefield and Burch in Lincoln that did much to boom in terest fn the project, and the com mittee in charge of the drive ia now at the three-quarter mark. Wakefield la an old major leaguer, Barney Iturrli. having played with t leveland and Washington from 1905 to 1907. He. was a catcher. The picture was made while the two men were in I.ineoln doing what they could to help the committee put over the drive for class A hasehall. C-~-"x ft Says "Bugs' FIRPO’S HOP ISCIQT* 5 TO FORTUNE Washed Bottles Five Years Ago and Is Now Rich Enough to Empty Them. L. ■ - ' - ------j Firpo is going to collect another Mg Income tax when he fights Wills here next summer. Four l)lg towns are oiling up their bids for that International scramble. New York, Brooklj-n, Jersey City and Long Island City. Ietng Island City Is located on Long Island. Yet, we have gona along for centuries without suspecting there was a city on Long Island. . Connecticut also want* the fight, tut will be satisfied with the first run pictures. Berlin has not cabled any exagger ated offer of marks for the battle aa the Berlin fight promoters are all wearing Quaker hats. London would Ilk# to get It If the Mngllsh syndicates can Induce Bom (•ardler Wells to starch his backbone Instead .of his shirt front. The papers have not yet been signed. So any city can bid for the conduct, Including Shelby, Mont., which got such a battering In Us last fight that the Shelby aldermen slung a law prohibiting anybody from building a bungalow on a 24 by 24 lot. They don’t want to be reminded of anything In the shape of a ring. Flrpo Is not going to boat up to America until an arena is built ca pable of holding 100,000 policemen and firemen because here are always that many guardians of pinochle there to see that law and order are main tained among the other 345 specta tor*. It will be Flrpo's third big grab at North American money. After the fight he can go hack to Argentina and have his picture printed on his own money. Not bad for a lad who was an en gineer on a dishwashing machine lees than five years ago. Firpo-Lodge Fight Feature of Week's Schedule of Bouts ns ANGER KinPO, known in ring parlance aa the “wild bull of the pampas,'' will desert his native Argentina In April apiylriRP.ai to return to tne United State* and Haunch a campaign for a return battle with Jack Uenip *ey for the heavy weight champion ship of the uni untverse, but be fore he does he has two task* to per form. One la to tip over Farmer Lodge of Minneapolis and the other Is to defeat Krniino Spalla, heavy weight king of Italy. The first task will he performed Saturday night In Buenos Aires, ss the feature fistic attraction of the current week, while the second will take place there later in the month. * W> say he will lip over l.odgr, be cause If he cannot do this In the false alarm from the finpher state he lias no business buying a ticket for America with the idea of meet ing Itempsey again. It would be hard to Iragine a more made-tn-or der set. up for a lilg punching hulk like Kirpo than l/oilge standing flat footed In the ring with a pair of padded nilltens decorating Ills big hands and the fnusclcs on his fore lieud mining In their customary slow fashion. T«uc\ge viA" taken to Buenos .AIren for two reasons. The flrat la that ha needed a little money and It wna a good way to collect aome. The second la that he la a good trial home for the man who needs about six more victories under bis belt before lie gets back Into a hemped enclo sure with the man who flattened him so completely In that now famous world's heavyweight championship bout In At season In New York. . It wasn't so lung ago that I.odge fought big tail Morris, who. at th*t time, was well on the down grade. If we are to even consider that Morris ever did amount to any thing as a lighter, l odge was an easy virliin for Morris. Ills only stock In trade In that fight was to grab Morris and hold on tight every time the referee separated them and fry to stay ns long as lie could, lie could mil hot, lie could not punch anil lie couldn't even take the punches of the big, nnkwiii'd Morris, who never learned lion to use Ills strength to pill over a linoekoiit. I.odge lierame too tired in the aitth round and Mor ris was eredited with a knockout About the only reason I.odge did not wulk out of the rip* wag that I»e jvas afraid In turn his back for fear he might get htt. I«odge la big. That la all that can be aairl of him. Any flfth-ola** heavy weight In this country can heat him. Moat of the middleweight* can heat him. So If Flrpo cannot flatten him in Jig time he Isn't the prospect for the heavyweight throne that hi* ad mirers claim. It la likely that whep one of those Mg hams Flrpo chinks Into a pair of mittens and used as clubs to beat down his foes, lands on Lodge, the Gopher slate product will do an Annette Kellerman and the collecting of the loser's end will then be In order. Following this fight Flrpo will have to meet Npalla. The Italian is overloaded with confidence, but there is nothing In his record that Indicates he can upset the well laid plana of Teg Richard to bring Flrpo hack to America and send him against llempsey In another hlg currency grabbing relebratinn. The plan is for Flrpo to sail for this country late hi March. Stna*li<Ski Rrcord at Meet.

There's Harry Sinclair, on# of the < kief figures mentioned in the Teapot Dome scandal. Sinclair is one of (lie owners of die Kancocas stable, a powerful and ruthless turf combination. His part ner is Sam Hildreth, veteran profes sional horse trainer. The stable employs two famous jockeys, Karl Sande, king of the mod em day horsemen, and I -av erne I ator. a rider of the Irst class. It owns the great liorse* >ev. firry lag, .Mail Halter and many others. The color* of the “Ranro" stable are white jaeket with green collar raid ruffs and white rap. The Rancocas stable seems to oper ate on strictly business lines. It strikes one as cold, commercial. This is quite within its rights, to be sure. The operation of a racing stable is with some men a business. With others it is a sport and amuse ment. But there attaches to the Rancocas stable none .,f the sentiment that rase goers feel for other stables and other colors. Sentiment goes with 'he Whitney light blue and hrown, with the colors of R. T. Wilson, Jr., of th» Jeffords, the Orcentree, the Glen Riddle. Sentiment was distinctly with Ad miral Gravsnn as against the unap pealing Rancocas stable In the fa mous discussion before the so called international race as to the American 3 yenr-old that should carry the American color* against the English horse Papyrus. Tlie Itancoras owners declined In meet a test prescribed by the jockey eluh to determine the horse to race the English entry'. They liad a better horse in Zev than \dtnirai Grayson's My Own, little doubt of that, as eients proved, but there was sufficient doubt before tlie big race to justify the test. Tlie attitude of the Rancocas own ers was irritating to many persons of sentimental turn of mind. tet. It was undoubtedly businesslike. Senti ment and business rarely mix. By not risking (heir rliances in a trial rare with My Own. combined with a fortuitous muddy track, the owners of Zex made rertaiu the win ning of the international race and Hie purse of M.IHMI. It was good man • cement on the part of tlie Kancora.s owners. Zev was not the best 8 year old In America Inst season, though Zev may have been a better horse—a faster horse than My Own. In Memorlam, a Kentucky horse, was. and perhaps still Is, a better horse than Zev. The Ran cocas stable sent Zev to Kentucky after the big race, and In i race in which Zev heat My Own. both were beaten by the great In Mr mortem over a route regarded as a real test of equine greatness laiter the Rancocaa stable got a re turn mate hwith In Memorlam over a route better suited to Zev, good business management again, and In a finish so elose that many who saw the race still think In Memorlsm won, the decision went to Zev. It cannot lie denied that the Kan cocas horses lire well handled, well managed. Illlilrcflt Is one of the greatest Imrse trainers in the world, Visa lie Is one of the greatest managers nf horses. Careful managing has made chain pious of Kivrrs, though they may not base been the best hovers in the world. The Sliulalrlllldreth combination, with Its great horses and iorkrys, wins many of the rich turf prises dur ing the racing season. Hut when the Kancoeas colors go to tin* post tew sentimental heart lii'tits follow them Hefore lie took up racing with 11II <belli. Many Sinclair had a lling al baseball He was on* of the Kickers, per haps Ih* chief backer of the l-'cdetal luvgus. ^ NEBRASKA BASKETEERS AGAIN HIT WINNING STRIDE; DEFEAT THREE VALLEYTEAMSINWEEK Virtory of Cornhuskera Over Grinnell, Missouri and ^ ash* ington One of Features During Play in Missouri Valley Conference Cage Circles. □RANK EATENSOR designs build ings for a living. That his liv ing Is good is proved by the court house, the high school, Creigh ton buildings, move houses, etc.—but friends claim Frank is also equipped with an imagination along with his vasatality as an architect. Frank tells of a trip down south during the durk season. Friends gave him five shells, a double barreled gun and a small club. Then they led him out to a rice field and placed him in a ditch. He wondered at the few shells and the club. He didn't see a duck. Tlie friends refused to tell him more than the fact that he was to lie allowed no more than two shots while the birds were flying and that the three extra were for emergency and not to be used. The club they refused to comment on, just telling him not to lose it and to hold his fire until told to shoot. Frank sat tight. Sundown came with it a long line of ducks. They swept towards the hunters a quarter of a mile In length, six deep end a mile wide, when about 60 yards away he was told to fire both barrels. He did. “Ducks fell In ail directions,” says Frank, “anil then I used the three shells on cripples which were a long ways away. I found that the club was to polish off all the rest of the cripples which were piled five deep in front of me. When we went home that evening after firing five times, the four of i use with the one gun and four | clubs had 91 ducks." When asking Frink if the shells were loaded with old Kaintucky White i Mule, be sure that you have a clear street for at least a mile. Frank la an old trackman and cap run like a rabbit.

Nebraska rlimb etl bark above the .500 mark by win ning all three starts, beginning with (innnell and finishing off with Missouri and^ Washington. The Huskera admin-^^ Istered the worst drubbing a Mis souri basket ball team has suffered in many years, following thi» up by defeating Washington on the Pikers’ own floor at St. lAuin, which is no mean feat. The Huskers are slated for but or.o game this week, when the Grlnnell Pioneers come to Lincoln Friday night. This will be the first home appearance for Coach Kline's crew in two weeks. All the prophets who were predict ing that no team would go through without a defeat are now ahaking hands with themselves. Until last week neither Washington nor Karsa* had a blotch on their respective rec ords. Oklahoma trimmed the Jayhawk ers and from all accounts available the Sooners did it and left no room for doubt as to liow and why they did it. The Oklahomans have n*4 given up hope of winning a title. Nebraska and Kansas are the only teams which hate succeeded in win ning from the Sooners thus far. As a result of last week'* game* Kansas now stands at the_Jop of th* list and Oklahoma is second, Wash ington dropping to third place. Ne braska stays In the first division. Until the Oklahoma game Saturday night Kansas had not met a confer ence defeat since January 25. 1922. and that defeat was the only one the Jayhawkers sustained that season. The season reaching the half way mark. It appears that he fight lies between Kar.saa and Oklahoma for the title. Del Mont*. Cal.. Feb.
