as Greatest Tackle
in Western Foot Ball

In selecting an all-western foot ball
team Coach YOst OF Michigan wrote as
follows OF shonka, Nebraska's great
tackle and captain;
"Shonka OF Nebraska and Frank OF
Minnesota are placed at tackles. In all
the games this season the big captain
OF the Cornhuskers has shown his worth.
The cry was made that Shonka had not
really gone up against good team, but
those who saw the westeTner rip up Mich
lgan ON November p could easily see
that shOnka would nip any line. No
player ever ripped Michigan before. but
Shonka never hesitated. As for Frank
OF Minnesota. he has shown great form
this season. The yards gained over the
Gopher tackle have been few and those
well qualified 90 judge claim he Is the
best In the country. Although not the

Basket Ball Elves
to Hold Interstate
Meet in February

The Interstate high school basket ball
tournment. which will be held under
the auspices OF the University of Omaha
gives promise Of being the biggest event
OF the year in basket ball in this sec
ton of the country. The meet will be
held the latter part of February. and
is open to all high school teams, though
the management of the meet is working
mainly for the Iowa and Nebraska
schools.
There have been state meets before, but
the idea OF extending II to an inter-
state affair Is an innovation, which IL 1t
proves successful this year will become
an annual event, and will be enlarged
TO take in ANY high school in the Mis-
souri, valley, which wishes to have a
representation. This years tournament
Is strictly an invitation affair all high
schools being invited to participate.
The proposition Is meeting with much
enthusiasm wherever 1t has been
preached. In the smaller towns In Iowa
a great interest has been shown, because
they feel that in this way they will have
an opportunity to get onto the basket
ball map. IL is a well known fact, that
| in lots of the smaller towns they do not
20 in for foot ball, but begin the
dribbling game as soon as school opens
In the fall In this way teams are often
developed that have the edge on the
fives representing the larger schools
Because basket ball generally Is a los
ling game financially, they are unable to
take on teams claiming the champion
ship, and so they welcome this means
OF meeting the better known aggrega-
tons.
Cups and trophies will be given fol
the teams winning first, second and thirc
places. These cups will be held by this
winner for a year only, unless the win
ner should repeat. Winning three times
successively gives the winner permanent
possession. Banners will also be awarded
which win state the position won and
the year, these will become the property
OF the owner on winning one OF tn
places in the first division.
The tournament will cover four or fiv'
DAYS play, all OF which, with the pos
sible exception of some of the preiiminar!
games, will be played at the unfTersit!
gymnasium.

Monday January q has been decided
upon by the tournament committee OF the
Omaha Bowling association as the open
ing date for the annual city bowling tour
nament. Francisco. the Metropolitan and
the Carlow alleys at South Omaha have
been chosen as the official tournament
alleys.
Secretary Edwin NJ. Tracy has circu-
lated entrance blanks among the bowlers
OF Omaha. South Omaha and Council
Bluffs. and from returns received at
present the tournament will be by far
the largest OF its kind ever held In this
city. This Is due. however. mostly 10 the
fact that the tourney will be operated
on the handicap basis. whereby the good.
the near good and the poor bowler will
be placed on a par with each other. The
individual handicap has not yet been de-
cided upon and committee of four Is
working on a system which will be
equitable 10 all.
The handicap OF a nve-man team will
be decided by taking the average OF this
team for the season. All teams with al
average OF 2.s50 will roll at scratch and
all teams below that number will hay,

Wrestling Copper
Back in Mat Game

c. A. Jensen, the big heavyweight
policeman wrestler is coming back into
the mat game. He secretly has been
getting himself into shape at his home,
where he has fitted up a gymnasium. The
fact that Jensen has been preparing to
get back into the game came out at the
wrestling match Friday night, when he
let slip little statement which caused
n few of the knowing ones to wake up.
Jensen until last summer was well
known among the grapplers OF this Sec
ton. He was taken sick early last sum-
mer and had to retire from the game
until he regained his strength and condi-
| ton. That he is in good condition is
| certain from the fact that he weighs five
pounds more than he ever weighed be-
fore and Is as hard as nails. Prior to
his sickness Jensen was reputed to be
a conner among the heavyweights, hav-
ing made a good showing against Wester-
gard after being in the game but a short
while. He has taken on such men as
Bill Hokuf, Paul Domke, Farmer Burns
and several other ones and got the best
OF the argument in many instances.
When asked whether he was going to
come back into the game Jensen said he
was preparing himself for that purpose
and declared he never felt better in his
life. After a few more weeks OF hard
training he said, he will be prepared to
take on any OF the bunch. Jensen is
well known in Omaha, having been on
the police force for several years. He
is a fearless and quiet man and that he
knows something about the game can be
testified TO by several had men who have
been quieted by him at police head
quarters
