BOWLING
AT TOLEDO.

Toledo, Ohio, March 22.-Ameri-
can bowling congress officials ex-
pect tonight to be one of the big
gest of the tournament now being
held here. They are of the opinion
that the Moose team from Roches-
ter, N. Y, are about ripe for big
score, in view o fthe fact that sew
eral champion bowlers are included
in its lineup.
Four of the members of the team
have figured in A B. c. champion

They are Larry Sutton. Otto Kali
lusch, A. Schienmann and Ernie
Barnes Kallusch and Barnes are
the present doubles title-holders,
winning at Buffalo last year with a

Schienmann also is the all-events
champion, having collected 1,919 for
his nine games at Buffalo kallusch
won the individuals title in 1917
with 698. Sutton was the 1912 in
diyidual champion with 679 SUIT

roll-off with F. Bruggemann of
Sioux City, Iowa.
another familiar figure, Mort
Lindsey of New York, will shoot in
his five-men event with the Gerge-
mans of New York.
Leading scores are high in all
departments and officials are of the
belief that few if any new leaders
will show up from now until the
close of the tournament, April l.
Following are the leaders:

Instead of matching Anderson

You would see both boys putting ev-

MISSOURI TEAM
Is REAL CLASS
OF CONFERENCE

Columbia, Mo-, March 22.-Win-
ming Is of their 16 games, the Uni
Fersity of Missouri basketball team
piled up a total of 626 points to
their opponents 372 in the 1921
1922 Missouri valley conference
championship race. in which the
Tigers finished in a tie with Kan
sas for first place. according to
figures made public here by Coach
Craig Ruby. MiSsouri's team aver
aged 39A points a game, while their
opponents averaged 23l4 points a
game.
Nebraska, scoring Is field goals
in one game against Missouri is
shown by the figures to have been
the most formidable opponent of the
Tigers. However, the COrnhuskers
were not a dangerous foe because
of the weakness of their defense,
allowing the Tigers to run up large
scores, Coach Craig said.

THIRD BOUT IN
FEW WEEKS LOST
TO MIKE DUNDEE

81 guess I'm the original hard
luck guy" said Mike Dundee over
the telephone this morning. In ex-
PLANTATION, Mike said he had word
from his manager, Dick Curley, last
night that another prospective
match for him had been called off.
Mike was slated to meet Jack
Ellie of Milwaukee before the Elks'
club in Chicago next Tuesday nighr.
Curley's only explanation of the
cancellation suggested something
to the effect that the polio were ex-
pected to interfere with the even
ing's entertainment.
Mike has been ready to go for sew
eral weeks now but somehow or
other things get crossed up when
it looks as if he was to get into
action. He recently had a pair of
battles called off.

Something in the way of a sports

lege athletic teams of the United

mia four-mile relay team, where on
April s they Will compete against
Oxford-Cambridge, in the Achilles
club games in Queens club. With
the Quaker athletes now on the
high seas aboard the Cunard liner
Aquitania is John T. McGovern,
who will act as sort of plenipo-
tentiary for a number of American
universities. Waiting to meet him
in England is Bevil G. Rudd, the
former Oxford track star, who
spent several months in this coun-
try last year and is devoting him
self to the splendid work of bring
ing athletes of his country and
America together on plane of
common enterprise and under
standing.
There is more than a chance that
these two men in conjunction with
other college athletic authorities of
England will arrange a definite
system of international meetings
, involving various sports extending
over a period of years. 1t was
learned that Pennsylvania has de-
clined the invitation to participate
in the big track meet in Paris in
April. The Red and Blue runners
have a leave of absence of but a
month and, studies aside, they must
prepare for the Pennsylvania relays
on April 1929.

signed to pick up just bit of turf

BROWNS BOAST
TRIO OF STARS
FOR 0UTFIELD
sBaby DolI- Jacobson. Williams
and Tobin Leave No Yawn-
ing Gaps.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus-)
There is no yawning gap in the
outfield of the St Louis American
league club, and if there was, ac-
cording to Lee Fohl, he has the
material to plug it. The Browns
are possessed OF Baby Doll" ia
cobson, Williams and Tobin, the
three torrid babies, but with all
this opulence F>ohl is singing him
self to sleep every night about
burst, who graduated into st.
Louis out of the Texas league.
He is an outfelder who played
with Beaumont, Texas, in 1921, hit
ting for .274, being the pusher for
63 runs and stealing Is bases. The
figures thus recorded do not deco
rate burst with medals but he was
quickly grabbed as a probable can
didate for something higher than
Texas league baseball, and the man
who grabbed him and sent him
along to Fohl was an experienced
scout. He had burst under his
wing within "A hours after he had
seen him.
Where burst particularly spar
kled in Texas was IN leading all Oh
the young folks in taking fielding
chances. He went after more and
accepted more than anybody else
in the Texas leagues composite
outfeld. He is a lefthand batter
and a lefthand thrower and picked
up his boyhood baseball on the
flats of Austin, Texas, where he
was born.
Fohl and some others who have
seen him say that the Browns have
another iris Speaker coming along.
If burst develops rs per cent of
the good traits which belong to
Speaker, the scout who took him
under tow for ST. Louis should be
given a big bonus. St Louis isn't
much for bonuses but Bobby Quinn
may induce the boss to expand
little.

TRACK men Are
WORKING HARD
FOR BIG Event
Athletes Are Forced Indoors Tenn
porily by Change In the
Weather.
BY ART WILLIAMS.

The Rock Island high school
track squad was forced to resume
practices on the Y. M. G. A. track
because of the change in the wealth
er in the last few days. Several
practices were held in Reservoir
park and the team was showing up
in good shape until the cold wealth
er came around and put a damper
to the outdoor activities. Coach
Kimmel stated that the squad VIII
not be cut until several more work
outs can be held out of doors and
then the best material will be Sc
lected and the development will be-
gin.
Last Saturday the candidates
worked out on the Augustana track
from until O'Clock in the after
noon. Other practices will be held
on the college track before the
quad-city indoor meet which will
probably be held the first of April.
The locals are figuring on giving
Davenport and Moline good run
this year. This meet will give an
idea of what kind of team the
Crimson and Gold will have in the
later events.
Very little chance has been given
Coach Kimmel to tell what material
he really possesses. Captain Tax
man has shown fine form in the
dashes in the outdoor pactices. A
number of other men also look to
be pretty good in the sprints. Searle
is in training hard for the mile and
no doubt will lead several other
candidates around the field. Ma
ger and March show good form IN
the weights and Shelter and Burch
probably will be the pole yaulters.
other than these events little has
been done in the training. The ac-
tivities will begin in full for the
other events as soon as the wealth
er will permit. In the meantime
the runners will have to be content
with indoor running to keep linn
bered up and TO develop their wind

AS Third man
FOR BIG BOUT
Chicago Sporting Writer to On
ciate Scillaifer-0 0'Keefe Go
Friday Night
BY ]. L. HUGHES.

Ed W. Smith, Chicago sporting
writer, will referee the main bout
of Friday nights boxing card at the
Davenport Coliseum, according to
announcement of Davenport legion
officials today.
Morrie Schlaifer, who meets
Denny OKeefe in the windup, ar
rived in Davenport yesterday after
noon as per advance announcement.
He rested up after the train ride
from Omaha but today was ready
for strenuous afternoon in Smith S
gymnasium, 42S Brady street.
O'Keese likely will not arrive
until tomorrow afternoon and it is
probable that tri-city fans will not
be given a chance to see him in
action until the curtain goes up at
the Coliseum.
Schlaifer is different than
O'Keefe. He likes to reach the
scene of action as early as possible
and become used to surroundings.
He enjoys working out before the
fans who are to see him in the real
bout. O'Keefe prefers to remain
away and keep the bugs in doubt.
Opinion as to the probable out
come seems to favor O'Keefe slight
ly, very slightly. due to the fact
that Schlaifer lost decision bout
TO Dave Shade recently in his
home town There are those who
figure that if Shade is good enough
to beat Schlaifer in his own strong
hold, O'Keefe should be able to do
it on neutral ground. However,
others incline to the belief that
O'Keefe endangers himself by over
confidence. and that as a conse-
quence Schlaifer will upset the

the draft and does believe in in

would not be prohibitive. The
league expects to lose many play

Drafting of players is a gam

one out of each five men taken IN
this way prove of value to the ma
