IL, With Coyote State Col
lege.

South Dzkoea sezte co1hege made It
two straight By defeating the Uni-
v>rssty, Of North Dakota basketball
team the second game Of the series
Tasarsday evening Is to II. It vas
because the 'varnity played a better
game on the floor than 1. did in first
contest with the Coyotes, and showed
more punch" that the was az
close rs 1t was, because Vests men
had the baskets located last night.
North Dakota's defeat could be laid
directly to inability to negotiate bas-
kets when it had a chance. The
varsity shot oftener than the visitors
one OF the pink and green men being
able to depend upon himself. Fumbl-
ing also hampered the locals, spelling
several chances for easy shots.
Mad Hard Fight
It cannot be said, however. that
North Dakota did not play a strong
game The contest was even mor of
B. battle than the one on Wednesday
evening. 1t was a case of a being up
against short passing game well
could come through with a basket
when j. had the chance.
The varsity played the visitors on
even terms the first half up until
the last five minutes AS was the
case the frst game, Carey lead of
with a free counter the first minute
OF play, but Burkman gave North
Dakota a point lead with a field
basket on the next play. It was the
best piece of team work the locals
exhibited all evening. Two free
fhs1~-n hry TnDNv o-@ ~-> hy Dr~6-
nan tied the count at 3 all and when
Thune secured a field basket South
Dakota took a lead and was never
behind again during the game al
though Burkman tied the count short
~ after with three free throws. 1t
was following this stage OF the game
that the Coyotes outplayed the
varsity and closed the half Is to s.
Still Going Strong.
At the opening of the second half
South Dakota continued Its fiashy
playing n ran the count up to 20
to 3, before Davis called a halt and
changed his lineup. The North Da-
kota coach sent in a somewhat diff
ferent team Thursday night than he
used the first game. Harris was at
ceDter in the place Of Busdieker and
Brodie took Harris forward job. At
this point In the game he sent Bus
dieker to center, McCutcheon in for
Brodie at forward and Mayer to
Stenshoel's guard.
The pink and green team proceeded
to attempt a rally and did succeed
In playing the Coyotes on even terms,
or a little better for the remainder
OF the name.
West sent in the same lineup last
night That played Wednesday even
ing, but Carey went out with four
personal fouls against him late in the
game Int Thompson was forced out
a minute later when he ran into Judd
Mayer and was injured.
McCutcheon is Game.
McCutcheon put up a great fight
after getting into the battle, and de-
spite his lac OF weight improved the
situation during his stay. Although
Burkrnan secured bat two field goals
he u get credit for the work he
did on the floor, and Sinclair COM
mendation for making himself
dangerous as a part Of the scoring
machine az well as holding down his
job as guard.
l.. Thune at center, Carey at right
forward and Schultz at right guard
stood out for the Coyotes. Carey is
the best shot in the South Dakota
combination and was dangerous every
minute of play. Thune played an ex-
ceptional game on the floor.
