Three Veterans on Team.
Only three veterans are back this
year, but the-new recruits are full
of fight and have nearly all played
locket liall with some of the fastest
teams in the valley. Captain George
t'-onil is stationed at . guard. Bob
Hays, the other guard, is a Williams
jtwcll collrgc star and has per
formed creditably during the first
three games of the season.
Bunker, all-valley guard of last
vcar'and football star of this year,
is playing center. Bunker weighs
200 pounds, but handles himself with
the grace of a butterfly on the court.
"Bun" Browning, brother of last
year's all-valley captain, is playing
a fast game this year in the forward
stall. Browning plays the same
style of ball as Captain Smith of the
Cornhuskcr team. He is exception
ally fast and has a mean eye on the
hoops from all parts of the court.
The other forward will be filled by
Vanice, star of last year's yearling
Use Short Passing Game.
Coach J. Craig Ruby will probably
use Faurott at guard. Vance, Moore,
Lester,- Knight and Van Horn are
also likely to be used in the fray,
for alt players of ability.
The Tigers use a very short pass
in advancing the ball down the field,
and guard closely with a strong
five-man defense that changes from
the offense -with the speed of ten
second men.
The Cornhuskers will play the
last game of the Missouri valley con
ference at Columbia February 24.

Boston, Mass., Jan. 10. Charlie
White,' scheduled to box Johnny

asked the boxing commission to
assign three licensed " referees to
'render the decision. The commis

White has written the club that
he is ?not trying to dictate" or to

bouts. He simply feels that a de

more satisfactory. There is little

Amateur Cue
Sport Taking
oil Bis Boom
First International Tourna
ment Since 1912 Will Be
Held Thin, Winter at
S Philadelphia.
By AL SPINK.
This year amateur as well it pro
fessional billiards is taking on a
boom.
In the large eastern and western
cities the gentleman s game is look
ing up.
In Chicago many amateur tour
naments arc planned for the first two
months-of this year.
In this W&i year the tirst inter
national amateur billiard tourna
ment since 1912 will be held and it
i expected to bring into couipetion
all of--the best amateur billiard
players, of the new and old world.
Chicago and New York will con
tribute liberally to the list of entries.
Only the other day the National
Association of Amateur Billiard
Players- announced that the inter
national amateur championship 18-2
balk-line billiard tournament had
been awarded to Philadelphia.
It will be staged in the grand ball
room of the Manufacturers' club in
that city, February 13.
Leading Players Enter.
' The two leading players of
Europe, Ary Bos of Holland, ama
teur champion of Europe, and Ed
ouard Roudil, the French star, have
entered the event and will arrive in
this cotmtry next month.
Pitted against them will be the
four strongest players in the United
States..
The four Americans will be se
lected according to their records and
performances in the national ama
teur class A 18-2 balk-line cham
pionship tournament, to be held at
the Crescent Athletic club in Brook
lyn beginning January 30.
Thus the international tournament
will be. limited to six players.
Bos won the European title in a
tournament staged in Fan's last sea
son. At that time he made a very
favorabte impression.
Roudil 'was unable to play in the
event because of illness, but he isl
known to be an exceptionally strong
amateur player.
Philadelphia Gets Meet
Both Chicago and New York were
keen to capture the big amateur
tournament this year.
But they have been having more
than their share of the professional
billiard tournaments and matches
recently, and the event was sent to
Philadelphia.
The awardihg ' it to Philadelphia
was especially a big surprise to those
identified with the sport , in New
York city.
It has been generally believed that
in view of the fact that the -three-cushion
and pocket billiard tourna
ment had been held outside of New
York city, the big amateur plum
the international event would be
awarded to that city. .
However, Cecil M. Munoz, chair
man of the executive committee of
the National Association of Ama
teur Billiard , Players, declared that
investigation showed that the Manu
facturers' club could offer the best
setting of the event. -
John Fisler, president of the club,
too, assured the N. A. A. JB. P. that
the Manufacturers' club is in a posi
tion to afford the best possible con
ditions for this big event. So it went
there..
War Interferes.
The revival of the big amateur
event will be welcomed in billiard
circles everywhere, for it is generally
conceded that there is nothing like
international competition to stimu
late any sport. (
The war interfered with the hold
ing of the tournament, but last sea
son overtures were made by the N.
A. A. B. P, to the billiard authorities
on the other side to ascertain
whether there had been a sufficient
recovery from the effects of the war
to warrant the staging of an inter
national tournament.
' At that time the National Asso
ciation of Amateur Billiard Players
was advised that the time was not
propitious. ;
'The overtures weft renewed dus-
ing the summer and finally met with
approval.

$10,000 Exchange Hands When Buddy Logan Defeats
Schlatter in Slashing 10-Round Battle-Fight Best
. Ever Staged Here-Morrie May Fight Padget Here
When Referee Houlihan Monday sent Buddy Logan's mitt starward. a .token of victory over Morrie

1 his represents the sum bet on
is ever in Umalia tight annals
A local ciuar store, which was
ners could not be picked on the card, cleaned up close to $4,000.
The grudge between Schlaifer and Logan, which developed when the
Hebrew lad, by virtue of several victories, began to be the "bull of the
woods," was settled.
But whether the hatred has been
eliminated Is another question, be
cause hatred, such as cropped out
at all stages of the battle, cannot
die overnight
When one or the other of these
ancient enemies landed a sock that
jarred their respective families, a
smile ot fiendish oiee cracked their
battle-scarred features and further
intensified their efforts to lay over
the smack which would give the
vanquished a worm's-eye view of
ceiling lights.
Decision Popular,
The decision was popular. That
was evidenced bv the deafening ap
plause which went up when the
referee held Logans mitt aloft.
Logan showed surprising coolness
and when Schlaifer - would launch
one of his celluloid patents of Tiger
Jack JJempfcys attacks, Logan
would drop into a shell. J. hen he
would come out fighting.
Used Wicked Left'
But Logan did not rely "upon his
ring generalship to carry him
through. At times he stood toe to
toe and slugged. He used a left
jab to the face continually and often
toliowcd with short, choppy rights,
His tattoo to Schlaifer's face soon
brought the' gore. Later a glancing
Diow to the forehead opened a cut
over the Hebrew lad's eye.
Tl . ...
i ne nrsi round . was entire v a
feeler and was even. In the sec
ond round both landed decisive
blows, but Schlaifer took this on ag
gressiveness.
The third round was shared even
ly. .Logan took tne tourth by a
wide margin, repeatedly landing to
DCMaiters head. Logan cut Schlaif
er in this round. The fourth round"
was even and Schlaifer garnered the
htth. , ..
Logan Took Seventh.
The sixth also was even. Schlaifer
showed to advantage the first cart
and Logan came back strong in the
latter part, landing several rights.
Logan took the seventh, starting-
with a right and - left to face and
driving Schlaifer into the ropes. The
round ended with hard infighting,
Logan proving the master in block
ing.
The eighth was Logan s by a wide
margin. He repeatedly rained clean
blows to face and head and got m a
wicked uppercut at the. bell.
xhe ninth was1 Logan s and tenth
was even. The final one was a slash
ing, tearing, rip-snorting slugfest in
the center of the ring and kept the
fans on their feet howling with glee.
After the final round grenzied
fans jumped into the ring, seized the
victor and carried him on their shoul
ders about the ring and finally to his
dressing room,
Fought Great, Battle.
Schlaifer, who is entitled to glory
even in defeat, was given a warm re
ception by his followers, who crowd
ed about him as he left the ring.
A big crowd witnessed the scrap.
Every seat downstairs was sold out
and many fans were standing. There
were a few empty seats upstairs,
however.
Schlaifer's : next appearance here
probably will be against "Cowboy"
Padget of Denver. . Denny Ryan,
matchmaker for the Knights of Co
lumbus, has the auditorium for Feb
ruary 13, and intends to bring
Padget here. . :
Since he defeated Schlaifer, Lo
gan probably could "have landed the
fight with the Denver leather puller,
but he said this morning he would
not accept the fight. . j
"I wiH fight the winner," he de
clared. 7 .'.
