no match for Creighton's fast basket
bail team here Wednesday night and
took the short end of a 80 to 7 score.

St. Johns fought hard, but their
anxiety to win left openings for the
Omahans, who passed the shot with
wonderful accuracy.
After the first few minutes there
was no doubt as to the outcome and
the crowd settled down to watch
the score mount. At the end Of the
first period the count stood 18 to 2.
In the second half Creighton subs
were injected into the fray.
Few fouls we're committed by
either team. The crowd was the
