5-FOUL RULE
next WINTER?

Minnesota's high school coaches are
seriously considering following the
lead of district 81 in adopting the
five-foul rule for the next basket
ball season.
At their meeting in Minneapolis
during the state tournament they took
no official action but there was much
talk in favor of the rule. Coach Dave
Macmillan Of the University of Min
neSota quintet came out in favor Of
it to swing many of the coaches to
the new plan.
Coach George E. Lee of Eveleth
high presented figures showing that
the advantage of switch from four
to five fouls far outweighed the dis
advantages.
Coach Bernie herman suggested that
both high school and colleges should
run off 40 plays per quarter instead
of Is minutes to the quarter. Bierman's
spring games use the 40-play system.

Ely Man, Former Fighter,
Met Demaray Three Times

The last time they climbed through the
ropes was at Wahpeton, N D., and
after eight rounds of mixing Shiek
climbed out again with a decision.
In between bouts, Shiek was one of
several boxing coaches at the Elk's
club in Fargo In 1882 the Elks sent
a stable of fighters to the Golden
Gloves tournament at Minneapolis
that won five championships.
The next year Shiek met Sgt. Al
Zeck, Fort Smelling, who had won the
Golden Gloves middleweight title three
consecutive years, and decisioned him.
After the bout Zeck retired from the
ring.
Shiek held the welterweight title of
North Dakota at one time.

PhonY' Food in Bar

A California liquor control agent
literally smelled out a law viola
ton in Woodland, Calf. In a bar,
the agent looked suspiciously at
what appeared to be a piece of
cheese. Then he smelled it. He
found it was made of plaster of
paris, as was a big piece of liver
wurst. Other items of food were
similar "phonies. The agent cited
the bars management for violation
of a state law requiring establish
ments which serve liquor to be bona
fide eating places, and the license
was suspended for 10 days.
