Six field goals and three free throws were scored by the Central captain. A. Smith at forward also drew applause. Most of Central's team plays ended with the ball in Smith's hands. Payn ter had sufficiently recovered from his recent illness to start at center, but was taken out during the first part of the second half. Konecky and Benolken also were given a chance at-the Iowa quintet. Hollenbcck, Sioux City's best play er, had no chance for spectacular work because of insufficient backing. Ditring the first half the ball was al most entirely in the hands of. the Central players. Maxwell led off with a field goal aftty but 15 seconds of play. Scores came slowly until Central's machine purred smoothly and the count climbed t.. 15 points at the end of the first ( half. Ilollenbeck made Sioux City's lone point during this period. The second half came harder for Omaha. I The Sioux were Central's equals during the first part. Worth soon told and the boys from the hill broke away for their 29 to 10 victory. Seniors Win.
