Gophers Gain
on Illinois
Indiono WoIIops IA,
BoreIy Above Chicago
BY DAVE HOFF

CHICAGO, Jan. 27-(R-
Minnesota, back in second place
in the Big Ten basketball race
has played eight of its IS games
and has only these little tasks
to perform successfully to be on
top at the finish:
/. Defeat Illinois and North
western, to whom the Gophers
previously have lost.
2. Administer another beat
ing to Purdue such as the 1850
victory it forged last night.
3. Turn aside Wisconsin's up
and-eoming badgers, now win
ners of four straight.
4. Stop Michigan, Ohio State
and Indiana, all currently with a
500 or less winning percentage.
5. Pray that someone else puts
the ink twice on the leading
Illini.
Next on the Gophers' schedule
is Michigan, whom they play
Saturday night at Ann Arbor.
After that comes eighth-place
Ohio State-and then the Pur-
due Boilermakers again.
The affair last night, which
dropped Purdue into third place,
was Minnesota's game all the
way once the Gophers had gone
into an ga lead. Coach Dave
MacMillian's quintet ran up a
22-13 halftime advantage and
blasted away all the second half
to say in front.
Don Mattson, with IL points,
and Hal Thune, Warren Ajax
and Tony Jaros were the key
men in the Minnesota offensive.
Don Smith contributed stellar
defensive play for the Gophers.
Indiana moved into tie with
Northwestern and Iowa for fifth
place by lambasting Michigan,
64-36. It was the Hoosier's
third victory in six games. They
moved to a 23-15 halftime edge
and behind center Ed Denton,
who counted II points, pulled
far way in the second period.
Andy thinner tossed in Ia points
for Indiana.
Ohio State achieved its third
triumph in seven tits by produc-
ing an expected $685. decision
over Chicago, now loser of seven
straight in conference play. Jack
McLain's 13 points paced the
Buckeye effort but Jack Fons
of the Maroons scored seven tall
ties in the first half to hold
down Ohio's intermission lead to
25-17.

Hopeful but not confident of
an upset in their game with st.
Rita tonight, st. Mary's cagers
travelled to Detroit late this af-
ternoon for the fifth game of
their league schedule. Although
improving, the Mountaineers
have not won a game.
st. Rita's has a 1893 record in
three league starts and is host
to the Mountaineers in the first
of two games for the local paro-
chials this week.
ST. ALPHONSUS FRIDAY
Coach Lee Harris boys will
meet st. Alphonsus on Friday.
st. Alphonsus was a 1921 victim
of undefeated st. Mary's of
Royal Oak on Sunday. The
Mountaineers fell, 57-18, before
the same team.
Hart indicated that the same
lineup that started against st.
James would take the floor to-
night at 8 o'clock. George Fox
and Earl Coke are expected to
be at the forward posts, Palmer
Hudson at center and Capt. Jim
Petitpren and Ken Vernier at
guards.
The Mountaineers had only
10-point a game average until
the st. James clash, when they
collected II tallies. They now
have a 12-point average, one
which they're hoping to boost
further tonight.

NINE INNINGS THIS SEASON
WICHITA KAS Tan OLD,

"ASAtAA In, Nho., jail. ES-N
Daylight saving time will keep
the blackout away from semi
pro games this summer.
Ninety per cent of the games
in semi-pro leagues are played at
twilight and it's usually a race
with nightfall to get in the re-
quired innings.
Ray Dumont, president of the
National Semi-Pro Association,
says the extra hour of daylight
this summer will permit nine
innings of leisurely ball instead
of the usual seven.

the first round of play without q
loss.
The defeat for the Cleaners,
their second, showed them into
third place in the league stand
ings as the Business Men trouu-
ced Gray's, 34-1O, and the Tigers
took the measure of the M. c. A.
c., 32-14. First forfeit of the
schedule was taken last night by
the Merchants over the Bombers.
Two brief spurts by the Tim

half, cost the Cleaners heavily in
the feature game. The loop lead

Squirt AFTER HALF
Immediately after the resump-
ton of play, the Paganetti's
spurted again, building up a 1919
margin before the Cleaners
could get rolling. The last quar-
ter was a bitterly fought affair
with two Paganetti players oe-

Johnny Frink was elected on a

FIVE FIELD GOALS
The Cleaners weird scoring

Johnny Lehrner topped the team
with seven points, five of them

For the Business Men, their
heavy margin of victory, 34-1O,
was not unexpected. Lloyd
Hockins poured in seven field
goals-only one free throw was
scored by the entire team-to
top the winners with Bob Bob
