Creighton Five Beat Sioux City ml Basket Tossers Win Second Conference Cage Title by Scoring Victory— Kondele and Corenman Stars of Contest. By RALPH WAGNER. REIGHTON UNI . VERSITVS crack basket ball team bowled over the last obstacle in . path for #a Jittiitt y : Cqx/hIu I—— . y<tl second consecu tive North Cen tral Intercollegi ate conference c it a m p ionship Monday night when it walloped the Morningside college quintet of Sioux City by the score of 42 to 15. It was tho last conference con tost of the season for the Crejghton Bluejays. j.no Maroons li oni up norm amn c have a ghost of a show with the well-oiled five-man team of Creighton. Morningslde scored first early in the Initial period, but the Bluejays soon got to working and in jig time had the visitors snowed under a heavy score. At the end of the first half the score was 23 to 6. Morningslde presented a weak de fense and also a weak offense. The Bluejays found little trouble drib bllpg and passing through the five Maroons. On the other mitt, Morn ingslde was at sea when it attempt ed to smash through the defense of the Creighton team. The Bluejays, because of the poor Maroon defense, were able to bring out their team play last night better than at any previous game of the season. It was a pleasure to watch the smooth work ing Blue and White machine dribble and pass Its way down the floor, fin ally ending up with a field goal from either Mahoney, Trautman or Lovely. Soon after the game started, Rog ers, the star of the Morningslde team, caged one of the two field goals the Maroons collected In the first half. Koudele brought Creighton within one point of a tie when he made good on a foul throw. Corenman, another Bluejay, then caged a field goal and Creighton took the lead, never to even be In danger of going Into a knot with the Iowans. Creighton walked away from Morningslde like a Stut* does from a Ford, again showing that class always tells the tale. . Before the ffrst half had progressed very far. Coach Schablnger of Creigh ton substituted freely and by the time the game ended Creighton's side of the score book resembled a West ern league baseball score card for one afternoon's play, Schablnger used 10 men or, In other words, two complete teams. Even when the second string ers got Into action the Mornlngsiders werl unable to dent the Creighton defense or pass effectively, so well li<! the "scrubs” do their "stuff.” "Ike” Mahoney proved to he the chief point scorer for Creighton. The Creighton center scored six field yoals, three In the first and the same number In the second period. He didn’t finish either half. Little Johnny Tmutman was next with four field goals and two free tosses. Like Mfchoney, Trautman only played a short time. Koudele and Corenman Star. While Mahoney, Trautman and Lovely played a good game, the work of Koudele and Corenman, guards, and termed second stringers, was about the best on the floor. Rogers and Hauff played well for the visitors, the former scoring threo of Mornlngslde’s five field goals and making three free goals. COMMY HATCH FORD, who has been scorer for amateur teams for the last 10 years, springs this yarn concerning himself and BUI Hol brook, who catches for semi-pro teams around these parts: About three years ago a call came In from a small town near Nebraska City for a catcher. The Job was assigned to Holbrook, who Hfcd Hatch accompany him to the tpwn where the game was to be held. Upon arriving at the grounds Hill started to warm up with the pjayers. *The ticket taker for the home club was making the rounds of the stands eijd his eye fell upon Tom, who waa standing on the sideline. Approach ing Hatch he Inquired If the Omaha h<ty had a ticket. Tom Informed the ticket snatcher that he was Hol brook's manager. 'Tom’s tale sounded so good to the home guards that when It came time for llolbrooli to collect his money the manager of the home Club refused to pay it to Hill, hut said he would pay the full amount to the little fellow who said he was the catcher’s trainer and manager. Cyclone Cagers in Last Game Ames, Ja., Feb. 26.—Ira Young, Veteran guard on the Iowa tftato col lege basket ball team, will bo m ac tion with the Cyclones for the last tine on the floor when Ames plays Nebraska here tomorrow night.

Tech Prepares for Baseball With the basket ball season on the wane, and with but one more sched uled cage contest on the 1924 pro gram before the state tournament at Lincoln, Coach Jim Drummond of the Technical High Maroons will soon be turning his attentions to his base ball squad.

Raymond May Call Off Bout New York, Feb. 2*.—Abandonment of the proposed bout between Lull Angel Firpo and Harry Wills, negro contender for the heavyweight title, next July under auspices of a syndi cate headed by Lew Raymond, seemed probable today.

Stribling's de fense was very good and ha did not falter until the last round. “Kid” French Returns to Ring After Brief Rest ’'Kid” French, Central City welter, after a brief rest, has returned to the boxing ring and is ready to take on any good welterweight In the coun try.

LUIS ANGEL FIRPO ARRANGES LIST OF EXHIBITION DATES FOR HIS NEXT TOUR-RENAULT ON LIST South American Hopes to GeWrifling Sum of $200,000 for Bout With Canadian Heavyweight at Windsor, Ontario, on May 24, Next—Homer Smith Also Included on Luis’ Calling List—May Never Meet Utah Mauler Again. By DAVIS J. WALSH. EW YORK, Feb. 2S.—According to Broadway gossip, Luis Angel Flrpo, having had a great plenty on the memorable night night of Septem her 14. will never again mlngie with Jack Dempsey within the con fines of an 18 foot ring. The noble senor. It is said, Is arranging a list of exhibition dates and will trade on his last showing with the champion in an effort to clean up while the cleaning Is all to the vacuum. He will do business with .lark Renault, Fred Fulton, Floyd John son and other heavyweights during the coming summer, but will avoid Ilempsey as the average man avoids a coal hole, according to local gossip. Meantime It is said that the trick will be to squawk loud and plain tively for a return engagement with the champion. This, it is said, will not only serve as an effective smoke screen for the senor’s business, but will react with favor upon the gate receipts that will attend his efforts against the heavyweight bourgeoisie. For one bout alone, he la said to hope to get away with the trifling matter of $200,000. This la the pro posed engagement with Jack Renault at Windsor, Ontario, on May 24 nej^t. The Canadians are greatly enamored of Renault, a native son, and are figured to pay heavily to aee him In action against the aenor. After having finished with Renault, Firpo plans to look about for other chins to conquer. His idea Is said to be to Invade St. Paul at a propitious moment and smite Fulton an early and hurried smite on the chin. After attending to this trifling matter for which they have selected Memorial day, I.uis will step to Cleveland with the laudable Idea of knocking over Floyd Johnson. Floyd is no man's sap. by the way. The next stop, according to the ambitious schedule is St. Ixmla where Tom Cowler will be resur rected long enough for lads to col lect from the box office. After that Kalamazoo, Mich., the home of of fice furniture and Horner Smith. Homer will be accommodated on July 24. The last and best attrac tion will be staged In Philadelphia wtlli George Godfrey, negro heavy weight, as the co-attraction.

Manager Koran hsa been after Delehanty for aome time I McCormick to Plav Tennis Here ' nurse, It Is a bit prema t u r e mt nevertheless in Interesting bit of informa to Nebraska ten nis players to know the prep aration Omaha is making for the 1924 state tennU) tourna ment. Comes word (lint Ralph Powell, Nebraska champion, who held the title four years until 1923, when he did not compete, is preparing to get hark into tlie game. He played tennis late last summer and admit ted this week (hut the grass will not be verj^ green when he starts swinging a racquet this spring. He likewise tells u» that K. K. Mc Cormick. runner-up in the 1922 tour nament. has returned to Omaha to live and will compete again. Mc Cormick was barred last summer lie cause of his residence in Hloux City. Another possible Omaha entrant is Carl Fischer, who ranks well up in the list of the United States Tennis assoriation. Fischer won a name for himself while at Harvard. It is questionable whether he will enter, as he is not permanently lo rateil in tlie Gate City and may be gone before tournament time. Harry Koch, another ex-state cham pion. wno held the title three times, is also planning to enter this sum mer. With that array of talent It is evident that Omaha is going to extend Itself to bring home all avail able titles In the coming tournament, and it likewise indicates a sort of ren aissance period In tennla for the Gate City. A few years ago thera was no bet ter tennis town in the middle west than Omaha.
