NEBRASKA WINS,
43-28, IN GAME
WITH MICHIGAN
Three Omaha Boys Star
With Patty King of Floor
In Mop-Up With
Aggies.
Lincoln, Feb. 13. (Special Tele
gram.) Three Omaha boys, Patty,
: Austin Smith and Bekins, were
largely responsible for the 43 to 28
victory of the Huskers over the
Michigan Aggies Friday night in the
first of the two-game series in Lin
coln. Patty scored 23 points on
eight field goals and seven free
throws, while Begins outjumped
Higbic at center.
From start to finish it was one of
the fastest, cleanest, cleverest games
ever witnessed on the Husker floor.
The Aggies played with that quick,
accurate short passing four-man of
' fensive which beat Tommy Mills'
boys the night before, but the fierce
guarding of Captain Schellenberg
and "Skipper" Bailey broke up their
attacks, while the puzzling offensive
of the Huskers got away from
Coach Gauthier's men.
Patty scored two field goals at the
start of the game. Highie added
two for the Aggies, and from then
on until the end of the half, which
ended 17 to 15 ii favor of Nebraska,
the scoring alternated. Smith count
ed four field goals and Patty two
for the Huskers, while Higbie net
ted four from the floor for the Farm
ers. Close guarding at the opening of
the second half kept both sides from
scoring for about five minutes, but
Bekins broke the ice, and from then
on it was a walkaway for Nebraska.
Patty with six goals in this period
was king of the floor.
The score:

OMAHANS LOSE,
22 TO 19, DESPITE
BRILLIANT PLAYS
Robertson of Central High and
Shapers for Lincoln Are
The Stars.
Old Man Jinx of Friday, the 13th,
followed the Central cagers into the
game with Lincoln High last night
at the Creighton gymnasium. After
three extra periods the visitors held
the long end of a 22 to 19 score.
Robertson started the offensive
drive by caging the first score after
but one minute of play, rrom this
time on the players made every min
ute count. Lincoln wa9 poor on
shooting, after they had penetrated
the well-working five-man defensive
displayed by Mulligan's cagers.
Short, snappy passing was the sum
mary of the first period. Coach
Mead's floormen gathered three
points on fouls while the locals con
tented thenselves with one less.
Shapers, shooting the foul goals for
the visitors, missed but one dut of
nine attempts. The first half ended
with Central having a lead of four
points.
The visitors came back strong at
the beginning of the next period.
The locals gathered three points on
a long shot by Burnham and a foul
shot by Ray Clements. .Straight,
fast playing and close guarding kept
the crowd anxious. Sougey on a
long shot placed the visitors in the
lead over the Purple and White
men. The lead was not held very
long before Burnham made his shot
clear the hoop. The end of the sec
ond half was marked by a 17 to 17
tie.
Referee R. L. Cams announced
that an extra five-minute period
would be played. Sougey broke the
tie by shooting a difficult goal from
the side of the gym. Clements fol
lowed suit and scored. The time
keeper's whistle blew.
An extra period was again called.
Very few people remained in their
Seats. Not until three minutes of
the period had passed did Lincoln
cage the winning score. The final
core was 22 to 19.

Chicago, Feb. 13. No written
working agreement between the ma
jor and minor base ball leagues will
be drawn for the present. The
American and National leacue presi
dents notified the representatives of
the minors to this effect today at
the final joint session of the leagues
Ihe major and minor leagues will
continue to work under the same
"gentlemen's" agreement which pre
vailed last year, with the exception
that an arbitration board will be ap
oointed to handle all disoutcs. Thi:
board will consist of two members
who shall include the chairman of
the national commission, which po
sition has not yet been tilled, and
one representative irom ine mm
leagues.
At any time this board is unable
to reach a decision, a third referee,
a man not connected with any oase
ball organization, will be chosen to
cast the deciding vote.
John Hcydler, president of the
National league, suggested that the
arbitration board be known as the
Base Ball Arbitration Board of
America.
To Respect Contracts.
Last year the major and minor
leagues came to the parting of the
ways, but it was agreed in New
York at the league meeting of the
National and American organiza
tions that the majors would respect
the contracts of the plavers in the
minor organizations. Under this
agreement, which was not in written
form, they operated in 1919, and it
was hoped they would get together
here at this time and put the agree
ment into writing.
Today's meeting, merely passed
on what had transpired at the gath
ering last night, with B. B. John
son, president' of the American
league: John Heydler, president of
tne .National league, and Barney
Dreyfus, Pittsburgh; August Herr
man, Cincinnati, members of the Na
tional league committee appointed
yesterday, m attendance.
Action Not Final.
The action taken at todav's meet
ing, however, is not final. The pres
idents of the two major leagues told
the committee from the minors that
they would take up with the club
owners the question of entering into
an agreement with them. The sen
timent of the American league, it
was said, was not to enter into writ
ten agreement until after the Balti
more federal league suit has been
disposed of.
The meeting today brings to a
close a series of gatherings of base
bail presidents, magnates, managers,
players and base ball writers, which
has been the greatest in the history
of base ball However, a few of the
club owners will remain here for to
morrow when August Herrman, the
ret-'ring chairman of the National
commission will meet with the other
members of the commission; Mr.
Johnson of the American league and
fr. Heydler of the National league.
Mr. Herrmann is desirous of having
the members of the commission
check his accounts as their chair
man, and al?o dispose of some other
details wh"ch have been in the com
mission's .hands.
Several club presidents are anxious
that the selection of a successor for
Mr. Herrmann be made soon, and it
was intfniated that the selection
might be made during tomorrow's
session.

DREXEL GIVEN
DECISION OVER
JOHNNY SCHIFF
Chicagoan Puts Up Clever
Fight; Drexel Uses His
Left Frequently to
Great Advantage.
Jimmy Drexel of South Omaha
got a referee's decision over Johnny
Schiff of Chicago in a 10-round
boxing . match at Fort Crook last
night. . Jack Mitchell of South
Omaha refereed the match.
The bout was staged in the En
listed Men's club. More than 600
persons attended.
Drexel had the advantage of youth
and size. Schiff put up a great fight
nevertheless.
Drexel otithit Schiff two to one.
The Chicagoan used his head and
shoulders to great advantage.
In the first four rounds Drexel
was unable to land any of his blows
sqaurely. Schiff was on the de
fensive almost entirely. Four times
in the first round, the local lad
backed Schiff into the ropes with
rushes and glancing punches.
In the fifth round Drexel clearly
had the better of the argument. He
landed squarely on Schiff's jaw three
times with his left.
Frequent clinches slowed up the
sixth, seventh and eighth rounds. In
the eighth Drexel landed often.
Schiff began to bleed from the
mouth and nose. The ninth round
was all Drexel's, but Schiff came
back strong in the final and landed
four stiff shots to the face.
Schiff announced after the fight
that he would like to meet Drexel
again.
Pommy fritzgerald administered a
severe beating to Private Callahan
in four rounds in the opening pre
liminary. The second bout, a four
round go between Ed Spurley and
Private Sharkey, resulted in Shar
key's winning a referee's decision.
Th third preliminary, a scheduled
six-round mill between Bobbie Rob
erts of Denver and Jack Ryan of
south Umaha was stopped in the
third round to save Roberts from
further punishment. The semifinal
contest was a six-round go between
Battling Kilrain of Omaha andd Ed
die Wilder of Fort Crook. Wilder
was given the decision. Kid Graves
refereed the preliminary bouts.
