The Omaha-High' achool floor quintet
showed Its class a a state champion bas
ket ball team by .trouncing th Magic
City High achool five In a. hard-fought
contest marred by much rough play, 31
to 17, at the local "X" association gym
nsslum laat evening before th largest
crowd of th season. . . . ,
Omaha woa because of superior team
work and a handy knack of. locating
th basket hoop, coupled with soma fast
work on ths part of lll Burkenroad,
th premier floor guard of the state, At
tlm was th parpl and. whit In
danger, although the Packers kept th
crowd In an. uproar by, some fsst work
near th close of th final period, ,
Mark Heeah Work.
Rough play - featured throughout; a
total of five class B fouls being called
during she two- halves Johnny Collins,
th iouOito ij'a sturdy little left for
ward,, had two of these fouls called on
him, which according to th rules barred
him from further participation In the
sport, but after a Woueultatlon on th
part of th officials It was decided to
let him remain In th lineup.
Lealle Burkenroad, left, guard, alarred
as usual for the Capitol b".l five, rolling
up a total of n points for hts teem.
James Gardner, right guard, also pat
up a stellar fight, and his efforts kept
many of th Ferkera from sheotiog
baskts at ooportun times.
Shirley Mensfs, right forward, loomed
np strong for. the South Omaha bunch,
placing th leaUisr wind bag through th
net . several, times la th second period.
Cottlna played a consistent game, but lilt
rough play, marred him aa th real de
pendence of his team, mates, ,
Th crowd was rather dlssatlsfisd with
the. work of the officials on account of
th .constant willingness . of th rater
and ampin to Interpret foul play. Baskst
ball Is a game ot brawn aa. well as
brain and geatlemanly play,. and whea
two .players an striving to gala pos
seseeon of the leather sphere, one is not
nahl to allow the other . to secure It
without ome effort. Refer Curtis cov
ered th floor to . best - advantage, . al
though ths Packer contingent was con
tinually 'trying -to Interpret- lb rule
niter their wa fashion.
Hooters tram both schools made their
presence loudly known wltk their lung
power and' a supply f novel yells and
cheers. Th balcony and gymnasium
floor were crowded to their full capacity
and many present wen forced to remain
standing during both periods of . th
gam. A large delegation of ; femlaln
rooters from th Omaha achool ' were
present with aa array of penaanta that
lent a tinge of color to the seen.

lean" Joe Rivers, the Los Angeles light

noon over Jack Whits of Chicago In the.
Vernon arena, stopping the Chlcsgoan In
th twelfth round of a scheduled twenty-
round bout.' Only Ad Wolgast now stands
between - Rivers ana Me lightweight
championship, snd th two probably will
be matched to fight here on July 4. -
Whit never had a chance against th
local boy,, who showed marked superiority
over th Chlcagoan in every department
of ' th gam. White's much-vaunted
cleverness was nowhere In evidence and
his blow wen entirely lacking In fores,
In th entin twelvs rounds White hardly
snc reached Rivera with a clean, telling
blow, and all of the time h was receiv
ing terrific punishment.
Tim after time White was knocked
down by. lefts to th jaw or right crosses
to th same place. Threw times h took
the count of nine, and half a dossn times
ths bell found him In such distress that
ths snd seemed imminent. Although un
able to msks anything except a pretense
t fighting back, the Chicago boy wss
sameness personified and probably would
have com up willingly la tb thirteenth
round bad not Referee Char lea Eyton
stopped the fight In th twelfth, with
Whit lying oa his back In tb center of
th ring, struggling to rise.
- Rivera alerts Karly.
After an uneventful first round. In
which White did the leading, the Mexican
started business. Toward tb elos of
the second round, a left hook to the Jaw
sent Whit to th mat for a count of
nine, Whit took th count again In tb
