And one of those is here Friday night when Antigo comes here for the first two games the Hodags have with the Langladc county outfit. Antigo is lied with Wausau for third place in the conference still maintains a mathematical chance of sharing th conference championship. While the dopesters feel that on the record.

Antigo should take its trimming in line with the rest of the boys, the fact remains that Antigo will have what psychological advantage there may be when the two teams clash here Friday. Antigo has nothing to lose and can shoot the works. Rhinelander. in turn, faces the possibility of a letdown. Antigo, too.

has the type of team that may cause the Hodags trouble. The Ants ar big. and in recent games have been scoring. Their size makes them dangerous on rebounds. Physically, they have the sort of team that would have a chance against Coach Russ Leksell's high scoring outfit.

Hal Fcrmanich. the Ants' best! scoring threat, has a lot of speed and may be dangerous on a fast breaking game. It was Fermanich I whose speed forced the Hodags into an overtime period two years ago with a couple of last minute buckets. Should the Hodags be up to par, they should win. Should they hav a good night, they should win comfortably.

The dopesters feel that the Hodags will be at par. The game is scheduled for shortly after 8 o'clock following the preliminary game between teams of the two schools. While a few tickets were sent to Antigo for the game, a number of reserved seats are still available. I These may be obtained at th Sen-1 ior high office. Others will be on sale at the box office at game time.

8 The boys who bet a bob or two on the fights are "getting down" for plenty on tomorrow night's Joe Louis-Arturo odoy championship shindig, despite the fact the Brown Bomber is rated so highly that his next title defense already has been lined up. Promoter Mike Jacobs, who directs activities of the fight game's most expensive and dangerous piece of bric-a-brac, broke just about all rules for fistic publicity last night in announcing, on the eve of one WATERS'600 IS HIGH FOR NIGHT Scries Rolled in Eagles Commercial Is Only Honor Count. Deneen Leads Hilltops to Win MILWAUKEE, Feb. 8 A brilliant scoring performance by Bobby Deneen helped Marquette stretch its string of home-floor basketball victories to 16 straight last night at the expense of a fighting Uni- i versity of Chicago quintet. Deneen tallied 20 points as the Hilltoppers rolled up a 41 to 29 decision over the of his points coming during a wild two minutes near the game's end.

Chicago drove to an early lead but Marquette pulled to a 20 to 13 margin at the half. Chicago' nar- Jack Waters, bowling with the Langdon-Waters team in the Eagles commercial league, turned the only honor count for Rhinelander bowlers last even 600 that gave his team a couple of games over the Emmerling Markets. Waters had a 201-223 opening set, but fell to 176 in his finale. Mitch Skaff hit a 541 for the same team, tal for the Wildcats as they won three straight from the Alley Rats. In the other match, the Gougers won two games from the Taggarts, winning the last by only three pins.

Harmon Quits Michigan Five ANN ARBOR, Feb. 8 Football-playing Tom Harmon has retired from the University of Michigan basketball team with the announcement that he wishes to devote additional time to his studies. The dark-haired, ail-American halfback who as 'a Sophomore gained fame in basketball has seen little service on the court this winter. Last year he scored 94 points to lead Michigan's players in West- 3 19 Sports Round Up By EDDIE BRIETZ Associated Press Staff Writer.

I Of course, 'Jacobs qualified the announcement by pointing out that Louis would have to whip Godoy first, in 15 rounds or less tomorrow in Madison Square Garden. But not even the Chilean fisherman's best friends would tell him he figured to dethrone the champion.

Even the bettors, having examined the somewhat peculiar "schedule" of jdds for the fight, let the 1 to 7 price on the Bomber to finish on in his ninth title defense strictly alone. Instead, they climbed aboard another item as a cinch to put meat and potatoes on the table. This was a quotation of even money that Godoy would last five rounds. The odds-makers have rigged up a scale on just how long Arluro would be around, making him 1 to 2 to hang on for 10 and 1 to 4 to be on deck at the finish. Has Chance to Stay? The fact Arturo is a rough customer and fights peculiarities Louis definitely does not enjoy in a rival punch what the boys and girls liked about his chances, to stay.

However, it was pointed out there- was little or no betting on the rowed the lead to 28-24 with only 10 minutes to play. Stampf, Chicago forward, and Jorgensen, Maroon guard, paced the losers with nine and eight points respectively. Wildcat Quint to Meet Butler Five CHICAGO, Feb. 8 out to end a three-game basketball slump before the Big Ten resumes its title. race Saturday, isn't picking a soft touch tonight when it takes on Butler at Indianapolis.

The Butler squad has faced five while Clarence Pecore and Bob Froehlich hit 532 and 537 for the losers. Frank Jewell and Don Vevea hit 578 and 564 for the Hanson- Fluegges as they took two of three games from the Peterson Beverages last game by a single pin. I Dewey Cain hit a 586, Ted Wunsch a 551 with a 206-203 finish, and Chet Musson a 545 for the Peterson outfit. Walter Morrill hit a 586 with a big 222 centerpiece, and Art Forth a 555 with a 221 opener, for the Forth Florals as they won a pair from the Danner Shoes. Doc Madson's 542 was the best, triple for the Danners.

Ted Derocher and Al Onson hit 556 and 537 for 'the Miller High Lifes'as they won three straight from the Noble.Sheet Metals. Out at Powells Art Schnell's 532 and a couple of 510s by Earl Morrill and Tony Baudek were the best triples. All three rolled for the Whooples, that team took two of threi; from the Badgers in the JCC league. Doc Metternich's 507 for the Roscos was the best triple for the Rosco-Brown Street Merchants match but the Roscos still were on the ern conference competition. "I can understand Tom's deci- sion," said Coach Bennie Oosterbaan of the Michigan cagers.

"Maybe Tom will find time next season to return to the basketball squad." Harmon reported to I this season a month after the close of the football campaign and has been used sparingly. He plays either forward or guard. In high school play at Gary, Harmon received all-state basketball recognition in his Senior year. ARRIS JOINS SQUAD. MADISON, Feb.

You'd be surprised at the number of fight men who give Arturo Godoy a chance to go the distance with Joe Louis tomorrow night. This bureau picks Louis in five or six.

Betting is even Godoy comes Big Ten foes, vanquishing two and giving two others a difficult evening before bowing. Illinois walloped Butler, 37 to 18, but Ohio State's victory was by a 51 to 45 margin and Indiana's by 40-33. Iowa was defeated, 35 to 32, and Wisconsin fell last Monday, 50 to 46. Northwestern has lost successive games to Ohio State, Marquette and Notre Dame.

He's going to keep his record intact tomorrow, for, at this writing it looks like some 19,000 cash customers will be on hand and chip in a pot of $110,000. With taxes on promotion taken off, Louis' 40 per cent of this should amount to about $40,000, and bring his ring earnings to over $1,700,000. Louis will be busy keeping several other of his records going, as well as the financial one.
