HARRY GREB
KEEPS TITLE

New York, Jan. 1S.--Harrv Greb of
Pittsburg, successfully defended his
worlds middleweight boxing title
last night against Johnny Wilson, Of
Boston, former titleholder, receiving
the judges decision at the end of a
Is round contest at Madison Squ;rc
Garden.
The champion carried the fight all
through the Is rounds and the de-
cision met with the approval of the
spectators that filed the garden
Greb, contrary to his usual method,
fought at long range during the ear
~ rounds and appeared to be as eff
fective at this style of the game as
he was with his milling, mauling
tactics in the latter part of the fight
Cuts Wilson's Eye
Wilson's best punch was left
hook to the body which he landed
occasionally. Greb was in good c. n
dition and when he was going at top
speed he ran rings around the boy
from whom he won the title at the
Polo Grounds last summer. Wilson's
left eye was cut in the latter part of
the fight and it was swelling shut
at the end.
& AT times both men had to be eau
toned by the referee for holding
and clinching. Greb weighed 1853 12

been military bands, noted for their

FAST TEAM is
COMING HERE
MONDAY NIGHT
Coach HOuser Expected To
Join High School Team
Against General Tires

Basketball fans will have 4 chance
to see one Of the fastest teams in the
Northwest in action at the local high
school gym Monday night.
Bismarck high will meet the Gen
eral Tires Team of Tacoma, Wash
ington, which is making a cross
country tour. The team, composed Of
former high school stars, is playing
college teams and Independent teams
along the route from the Pacific
Coast, meeting also few of the
high school teams. Bismarck high is
the only high school team in North
Dakota to get game with the Gen
cral Tires, team.
The General Tires team comes
here from Billings. 1t goes from
here to Fargo where it plays the
Agricultural College team. 1t has
played 10 games on the road, win
ming Is Of them, one Prom the Uni
versity of Washington.
Coach Houser Of the local team
will, it is understood, get in the
game for Bismarck high against the
General Tires team, and with the To-
cal team going good u hot game is
expected.
More people could have been ac-
commodated in the gymnasium last
night, many remaining away because
they feared a crush at the Mandan
game. There will be preliminary
game Monday night at 7:15 p. m.,
with the big game called at 8 p. m.

the best defense today is a smashing
offense.
Good pitchers are always wei
coined, but the player most in de-
mand is the athlete who packs Il
wal!op-the home-run hitter prefer
red.
Ten years ago the slogan in base
ball was get run and try to hold
the margin. Star pitchers like Wal
ter johnson and Grover Alexander
felt mighty comfortable whSn staked
to two-run lead. If handed four
run edge they just about regarded
the contest as all over but the shout
ing. In Ahose days the defense was
the thing, with the pitcher starring
in the leading role.
Get them in punches is now the
popular song in the majors. The old
army game of get run is passe. A
four-run lead today is nothing to
gloat over.
Connie Mack feels that the failure
of his. club last season was because
it lacked the punch. While the club
Athletics managed to stay in the run
ming. The moment the pitching fall
cred the club went to pieces AS is
usually the case, the few players on
the Athletics who possessed punch
fell into a slump at the very time
the, pitching failed.
Philadelphia fans, by their gcner-
Gus attendance last year, proved to
Manager Mack they would support a
club that was always battling. He is
making every effort to provide such
a team.
Mack is banking strongly on Out
fielder Paul Strand to make the Ath-
letics a winner. The addition of one
great ball player often makes pen
nant contender out of an ordinary
aggregation. Figures make it seem
that Strand packs batting punch
that should be the envy of Jack
DEMPSEY. Last season he made 1926
hits, breaking his own. mark by 36.
He made 43 home runs, breaking the
former by 10. He scored 1870 runs,
setting a. new mark. and drove in
1877. Some slugging!

more than $500 yards.
