BY JACK NORTH. AMES, March 12. The crack Boone High school basketball team for the second time in two years captured high honors In the' annual Ames high school tournament when it downed Luverne here tonight by the score of 23 to 10. Luverne, after playing two hard games yesterday and one In the semifinals this morning, showed the effects of the bard grind and consequently went down to defeat at the hands of a much speedier aggregation. Boone played great basketball at all times.

The winners displayed fine teamwork, caged baskets from 11 angles and they guarded so closely that Luverne had few shots at the basket. Janse, the Luverne captain and far, was stopped by Moran, the plucky Boone forward and with the offensive halted the 'northerners failed to make much headway, Moran Plays Great flame, Moran played sensational basketball for the winners. He covered Janse at all times and the elongated forward was helpless, so far as getting baskets was concerned. With the LuverTre offensive halted Boone had little trouble In getting and maintaining a sate (Pi iff a 1 An I I 1 I tir vuiiTijr lilt Gabber ieotfvs'ta. 1 21 If (I I I JSfc lir KJ lAS WEST HIGH WINS WEST HIGH WINS IOWA SWIM MEET I J' If lead.

i 'i The entire Boone team worlted -well. Moore showed speed on the court, guarded closely as dlU Hoist and Morgan, the two Boone curiN ingham eooflre-135 AG- 'i ne Register for tlie benefit of the Hoover relief fund for feeding the i tarvlng children of Europe, will be entirely different from anything ever staged here before. Inasmuch as wrestling is not a I'snnvnUaH anne, of nnba unira. i ciiUniAEu Dfui a i iviano untie lty, the Bulldogs' share in the Frl- day night program will consist of three seven minute contests with iree of the Ames reserves in the heavyweight, light heavyweight and welterweight classes. I Wrestle In Periods.

In the regular wrestling meet between Ames and Oklahoma there will be bouts In seven weights. In addition to the sporting events there will be a musical program by Ames band, which is led by Oscar Hawley Hatch and by the, uiee ciun. under tne direction of Tolbert McRae, head of the musical department at Iowa State college. Dean Holmes Cowper of Drake university also will lead In some community singing. Inasmuch as college wrestling Is a new sport for Des Moines some explanation of the rules under which the men will meet is In or der.

The contests are wrestled In periods of seven minutes each. The wrestler getting a decision and a fall, or two decisions or two falls out of the three periods wins the bout. Or In the ovent of draws In two of the periods' a decision or a nil in tne third period, me winner In the latter also wins the bout. Decisions Based on Aggressiveness. If all three seven-minute periods are draws the referee calls upon the contestants to wrestle two extra three-minute periods.

A coin Is tossed and the winner of the toss has the option of either. going behind or underneath at the start of the' first extra period. The other man then goes on top at the start of the second extra period. referee then renders hla decision on the bout. With the exception of the extra periods a seven-minute rest is given the contestants between But there are no delays as the matches are interlocked.

Starting with the lightest weight, the llB-nnund class, the periods are dovetailed, the 125-pound boys wreRtllng their first period while the bantamweights are resting, and so on all the way through the match. The referee in rendering decisions bases them almost entirely upon the aggressiveness of tne two men. Generally the man on top or behind is regarded as the aggressor unless he loafs and makes no attempt to throw his opponent. All Torture Holds Barred. All torture notds This means that the double nelson, double bar armlock, hammerlock above the email of the back, toe hold, finger holds over the nose and mouth and of course the strangle hold cannot be used.

In scoring points a victory in a bout in which the winner has obtained a fall counts eight points, a victory by decision counts six points and in case of a draw the points are divided. The Drake men who will compete In the meet with the Ames reserves are Conrad Given in the 145-pound class, who will oppose either Schll ling or Brenizer of Ames; Sarf who will meet McKibbon in the 175-pound class and Denton who will tackle Zink in the heavyweight division. The program including the music and wrestling events will be long one and for that reason will be started early, probably at 7 p. m. BOOSTERS TO BFXilX PRACTICE IN WEEK.
