Creighton Noses
Out Notre Dame
In Fast Contesti
.Score at Half-Way Mark, 10
To 8 Kearney Responsible
For 12 of Blue and
White's 24 Tallies.
By RALPH WAGNER
Fighting desperately to overcome
a 4-point lead in the last few minutes
of "play. Notre Dame went down to
a 24 to 20 defeat before the Creihton
university quintet Thursday night at
the local's gymnasium in the first
tfamc ot a tnree
dav trip into Ne
braska. The score
stood 24 to 19
when the iloos
iers began to
rally, but it was
too late.
The game was
characterized dur
ing the first half
by good team
work and close
guarding. The rival teams put up
one of the speediest exhibitions of
the season here during this period
of the contest, which was stubbornly
contested from start to finish.
One of the largest crowds that
ever witnessed a college basket ball
same in Omaha packed the large
Creighton gymnasium. During the
latter part of the first half the bal
cony on the south side of the struc
ture started , to collapse, but the
steel beams supporting the runway
prevented what might have been a
serious accident.
With just a few seconds to play
in the last half, Mclirc. lanky Notre
Dame center, toi-d the free throw
mark and caged a basket boosting
his team's score to 20i Creighton had
a 4-point lead and the visitors
started their tally. Captain Kearney
of Creighton started dribbling down
the floor and was in the act of shoot
ing when Mehrc guarded his oppo
nent in such manner that the ball
rolled out of bounds. Both players
started staging the Jack Dempsey
Bill Brcnnan act until Referee Birch
parted the warring basketeers.
Score 10 to 8 at Half Way.
The little mixup between the two
captains could easily have been over
looked had not a bunch of fans
rushed onto the. court, Apparently
ready to assist the local tossers in
any fistic encounters the latter
might become engaged in.
But the game itself was one of
the best that has been staged in
Omaha thus far this season. The
count at the half-way mark was 10
to 8 and no time during the initial
period was either one of the squads
anv more than 2 points in the lead.
With the count standing 8 to 8 and
only two seconds in which to f)lay,
Kearney netted the basket which
gave Creighton a 2 tally lead to
start the second period with.
Captain "Chuck' - Kearney was
once more the outsiatftfing local n
the game. He caged 12 of his team's
24 points, Although closely guarded
by the entire Hoosicr, aggregation.
Jimmy Condon, playing a scrappier
game than .any if his teammates,
should -be given a. share in stellar
honors. Time after time he broke
up the scoring attempts of Logan
and held him to one basket through
out the game.
Captain Mehrc for Norte Dame
filled the stellar rolffof the visitors,
h, was his guarding, passing and
good eye for tiie basket, together
with his ability to follow up shots
that boosted the Hoosiers' tally
' sheet timp and again. He sent the
leather sailing through the hoops for
four field goals and two free throws.
Logan .and McDermott, a couple of
speedy forwards," caused the locals
a lot of trouble. Anderson at guard
broke up numerous 'Creighton at
tempts to score.
Hoosiers Score First.
Creighton got the tip-off, but the
ball was not in play more than a
minute before Logan dribbled to the
side of the court, turned and caged
the first field goal of the game.
Kearney missed a chance to score
and on another attempt, scored from
the black mark on the court. He
followed it a few minutes with a
pretty basket and the locals were in
the lead. Anderson tied the count
when a Creighton player was called
for fouling. Kearney repeated from
the free throw line and McDermott
again, tied the score. Wise brought
the local score to six on a one-hand-ci
side shot. Kearney registered
from by the gratis route and. Ander
son repeated. Mehre followed up a
center shot and added two more tal
lies to the visitors' sheet and then
Kearney shot his fourth foul basket
of the period. Mehre then advanced
down the sidelines for a difficult side
shot, tying the score. 8. to 8. Kear
ney scored just before the half
ended. i
Creighton broke we ice in the sec
ond half when "Keafney counted on
a free throw. Kilcyjand McDermott
scored their first field baskets of the
game and the visitors forged ahead,
only to take the rear when Condon
made a long' shot -for the vl6cals.
Creighton. displayed good team work
at this stage of the game and Wise
succeeded in caging a field basket.
From this time until the finish the
locals held the lead.

THE
civil and army life. The sergeant
wakes you up in the middle of a
blizzard to give you your summer
underwear. This is what is known
as regulations. Doing the right

Jack hasn't lost his battling heart

He is no chameleon. When things
looked blackest- for him anyway,
he is determined to get the pork
chop of his dreams, just as soon as
he is able to change his routine.
Must Fight for Pork Chops.
Can you picture that chop? Fried
in a golden pan in the fat of caviar
fed honey bees. Sizzling in the sil
very lather of creamy, syrupy tears
shed by humming birds weeping over
the 'glory that Was Greece. Done
to a rich brown like a California
sunset on a lake of molasses and
laying there as helpless as the treas
ures of the Incas, before the hand of
the Spanish bucaneer.
Flanked by an honor guard of
sweet potatoes and surrounded by a
terrace of watercress. That would

That's the dream pork chop" and
Jack is out after it just as soon as
