NORTH DAKOTA IS
DEFEATED, 42-30,
BY GOPHER QunlT
Bitterness Leads Minnesota
While Boyd and Lee Star
For Flickers

Minneapolis, Dec. 19.-lReFlash-
ing a much improved brand Of bas-
ketball, the Minnesota quint romped
away with q AZ to 80 triumph over
North Dakota university here Sat-
urday night.
The Gophers, stronghold by the
return to the lineup Of George Otter
ness, flashy forward, hit q winning
stride early in the second half and
maintained it, steadily increasing
tempo until the final gun.
There was precision in Minnesota
passing, accuracy in their shooting,
and a close knit teamwork that time
and again penetrated the loose Flick
ertail defense for close in shots.
On defense as well as offense, the
Gophers were masters Of the situa-
ton throughout, returning quickly
to proper positions to form . bull
wark against the North Dakota
thrusts when IN intercepted pass or
q misplaced pass suddenly shifted
the play.
AS consequence, the rangy
Flickertails were forced to confine
most Of their shooting efforts to
long range tries and only = small
percentage found their way into the
net.
Gophers Lead 1T HALF
The Gophers held : 20 to 13 lead
at half time, and promptly 1T the
start Of the second stanza proceeded
to advance to clear cut victory.
Three times in the early stages, Of
the first half, North Dakota mani
aged to tie the Gophers, the last
time at Hall, but from that point
on the Minnesota men forged ahead
steadily.
The combination Coach Dave Mac
MILAN sent to the starting post for
Minnesota represented perhaps the
strongest front the Gophers can mus
ter, and the showing against North
Dakota demonstrated that this COM
bination will be able to do damage
against any opposition once the fine
points Of the floor game are thor
oughly mastered.
Bitterness carried off high scoring
honors for Minnesota by dint Of ex-
cellent craftsmanship 1T the foul line
which Melted him four points. He
added three counters from thes field.
Mackinnon Does Well
Besides proving himself an able
general in directing the Minnesota
advances down the floor, George
Mackinnon, up and coming Gopher
back guard, turned in four neatly
executed counters from close range.
Mackinnon's guardin. also was Of .
high order.
North Dakota tried valiantly to
penetrate the Minnesota defense, but
was baked by the leech like guard

defense was split wide open and the
Cophers were able to sift through
for easy close shots time and again.

Point Policy Questioned

IL mas always been q debatablc
point as to just how much West
Point football benefited from hav-,
ing the services of seasoned college
stars, whose eligibility to play has
resulted in the present differences
with Annapolis.
Tiny Hewitt, as an example, never
approached at West Point the form
he showed at Pittsburgh. In fact,
although Captain Of the 1926 team,
he saw comparatively little action.
Even Harry Wilson, this years
leader and hero of the victory over
the Navy, has. not on the whole
measured up to the playing stand
ards he set in three years at Penn
State. In those three years, how
ever. Light Horse Harry" gave the
Navy no little trouble and it seemed
perhaps like an unkind fate to An
napolis to have him. in four sue
ceeding seasons. continue to annoy
the middies on the gridiron.
Others Of the so-called "made to-
order" players did not gain much
prominence, however, until they en-
tered the military academy. Elmer
Oliphant was good at Purdue but he
was an all-American halfback at
West Point in 1916. Ed Garbisch
was probably an excellent center at
Washington and Jefferson, but as a
cadet. he was twice pickle. by Wal
ter Camp as all-American pivot
man, in 1922 and 1924. Bud Snrague,
1026-27 au-American tackle and
1928 captain, wasn't conspicuous
outside of Texas gridiron before he
went to West Point.

F0UR.WHEEL BRAKES ON
 NEW F0RDS POSSIBLE
Mystery Shrouds Appearance of Two New Models on the Road Today.

Detroit. Mich. Aug. 3 UP>-The mystery resulting from the secrecy with which Henry Ford has sur rounded the plans for his new car was doubled today by the appear ance of two different kinds of test models on the roads around his ex- perimental laboratories.
 One of the models was equipped with drums which obviously con- tained four-wheel brakes.
 The other model had drums on all the wheels. but those attached to the front wheels were so small that it was doubtful whether they con- tained brakes.
 On one of the cars, the heavy ma chinery under body and on the rear axle led to the belief that the car was equip ed with a gear shift in- stead of a clutch shift. There was nothing about the other car. how ever. to promote that conclusion.
 Both models were equipped with wire wheels, They were painted dark green and slate gray. They ap- peared to be capable of greater speed than the present models for they vlizzed by observers at a fast clip.
 Ford is putting all of his great plants here in shape to produce the new cars with the ore from his own mines the timber from his own for ests, the cloth from his own looms and the sand from his own Silica beds in the brief space of hours when he IS ready
