Blackmer, Break Barred After Protest. Was Made to Major Griffith Iowa City, la. AP The jinx of ineligibility which has haunted the University of Iowa basketball teams for three years claimed Ivan Elackmer, Iowa City forward, and Edward Break, Chicago, guard. Thursday night. Both players whose status was questioned by Major John L.

Griffith, Western Conference Commissioner, were barred from competition by the eligibility committee of the Iowa athletic Dean C. C. Williams, chairman of the board and of the commit tee. said that players had been disbarred because of violation of rule seven of the conference. The rule slates "a student who after matriculation in any college engages in any athletic contest as a representative of any.

organization primarily athletic in character, shall thereafter be ineligible to represent a conference institution." Williams said that the question of asking reinstatement by the conference was not discussed. Investigation of the; eligibility of Blackmer and Break resulted after a protest to Major Griffith against their playing with the Alberts Cleaners cage team of Cedar Rapids. The Cedar Rapids team is an amateur organization certified by the A. A. but admission was charged for the games.

Coach Rollie Williams said that he would ask for the reinstatement of both players immediately.

Pontiac Gay Kintner's Decatur High cage machine developed scoring trouble after a dazzling start here Thursday night and was pushed out of the Pontiac tourney title running by Dwight, 17 to 16. A' scoreless third quarter proved the Reds downfall. Decatur choked up in this period after establishing a 10-7 lead in the first two quarters and Dwight forged ahead 13-10.

Two short shots by Jepsin and one from the side by Olson did the work. However, the Kintner tribe made desperate endeavors to catch up in the final period and a goal from the side by Taylor and a long one by Bechtel sent it ahead 14-13. Here matters went awry again as Olsen and then Tyrrell caged baskets for Dwight, leaving the Reds behind 17-14 with two minutes to go. Ken Redding made two points back with a goal in the next minute and' Decatur had four more tries at the hoop in the remaining 60 seconds, but none clicked. Jumps Into Iad Decatur shot away to a sensation al start when Bechte and Taylor both hoisted in goals within the first 30 seconds of play, but that was the extent of its first period scoring.

It then oulscored Dwight 6-5 in the next canto to set up its 10-7 lead at the intermission. As a result of its setback Thursday, Decatur becomes a consolation title round contender and faces Mattoon, one point victim of Thursday's warfare, Friday night at 9:20 p. m.

Disdaining Max Schmeling, nominal king of the, fistic realm because of his choice over champion Jack Sharkey as the outstanding heavyweight, as well as such a spectacular puncher as Jimmy Mc-Larnin, the welterweight, 35 of the experts voted for Canzoneri while the remaining 20 split their ballots among nine men.

The ten men and the votes they received were: Tony Canzoneri, lightweight, 35; Max Schmeling, heavyweight, Billy Petrolle, lightweight, Mickey Walker, light heavyweight, each Kid Chocolate, featherweight, and Jimmy McLarnin, each Max Baer, heavyweight. Baby Arizmendi, featherweight. Young Corbett, weltreweight, and Wolgast, flyweight, each 1. Starts Friday With New Record Low Prices on Supreme Quality Moultrie Tourney Sullivan It's Sullivan and Windsor in the finals of the Moultrie county tournament Friday, night! Jobie Dunscomb's Windsor tossers threw the tournament into confusion Thursday night when they went out and laid low the favorite Bethany club by a score of 28 to 24 to earn the right to enter the final rounds of play. Sullivan turned back Gays in the second game of the night session, 53 to 25 for the right to enter the finals.

Prior to the start of the tourna ment few considered Windsor had a chance get by the strong Bethany crew and most of the Moultrie county dopesters picked Bethany and Sullivan to meet in the finals Friday. Windsor was warm Thursday and jumped into the lead right at the start and held it throughout the contest. Dunscomb used but five in eking out the much coveted victory. All five of the Windsor boys figured in the tri-ump. Griffin and Gregory were the heavy scorers for the winners.

Gays offered Sullivan little resistance and at the end of the first quarter the Dennis coached tossers were out in front 23, to 2. The Red skins then coasted to an easy victory that earned them the right to plav in the finals Friday night. Pete McDavid and Bill Dwyer, who gained fame on the gridiron this fall, had a big night oi. the hardwood. McDavid sent the ball swishing through the hopp nine times while Dwyer connected for 8 baskets.

Booce and Fergerson were the outstanding performers it the Gays five. Arthur jumped into a 10 to 1 lead at the end of the first quarter'and kept its lead throughout to win from Lovington in the consolation battle of the evening session.

M. U. floor. The Blue put up a gallant fight despite1 a height handicap used to advantage by the visitors and at the half held a 14-11 lead due to a basket by Al Miller, and a bit of almost fantastic one-handed shooting by Mel Goldman. Twice the freshman literally poured the ball into the basket, once while travelling at top speed and another on a whirl from the side.

The three counters, coming in quick succession gave the Blue a '14-9 advantage, but the lanky Mar-qua rdt batted in a rebound just before the half gun to leave the count 14-11. In the last half, however, the Bisons came back with a rush, par- Announce Benefit Tilt Between halves of the Millikln-North Dakota baseball game Thursday night it was announced that the Blue's next encounter scheduled for Tuesday night with Nebraska Wesleyan would be a benefit contest with all proceeds going to the Mowea-qua mine relief fund.

Bison Pull Ahead It was really when Coach Len Saalwaechter began cutting down his team via substitutes to almost the size of the Blue, that North Dakota hit its winning spurt. Olson and Denenny two medium sized cagers were rushed into the fray in the middle of the last half with Millikin leading 21-20. Denenny immediately hit a basket from the side, McKay followed with an- 'other and after Musso had sank a free throw, Olson came in to score making the count read 26-22.

At this point Goldman came through with his third one handcr and followed that with a free throw. This left the Blue one point behind, 26-25 and with three and a half minutes to play. But the local boys could do nothing in this time, while Olson made his late entry further justified by sinking another basket that clinched victory for the visitors. Steinhauer Starts It Throughout the first half it was Captain Steinhauer that kept Millikin in the running, the Blue leader making three of his four goals in this period in addition to a free throw. Twice his baskets gave the Johnson forces the lead, a factor that was quite shifting throughout the game.

All in all the lead changed hands 10 times and on five other instances the score was tied. Al Miller's insertion late in the first half added a bit of spark to the Blue when it appeared about to stall, and the Westville flash came through with a fair defensive game as well as accounting for five points. Musso stood out on defense in his duels with the Bison giants. The slam-bang part of the contest occurred frequently, but quite conspicuously soon after the last half opened. Athletes of both clubs suddenly developed a wild desire for possession of the ball, and a mad scramble took place for several minutes until they had worked off their excess energy.

Thursday's game marked the first of three for North Dakota in three days. Tonight it faces the University of Illinois there, and on Saturdav is at North Central. W. (28) G. F.
