Shoe Store school gymnasium.

It was Havre's third straight victory over the locals this season. The Bison Reserves swamped Belt 43-12 in a preliminary contest. Personal fouls cost the Bisons the game against the Ponies, but even in defeat, the locals looked impressive. Great Falls, trailing from the start, fought an uphill battle and nearly overtook the rangy Hill county team. The Bisons refused to give up and had the- Ponies on the run when the final gun sounded.

The largest crowd of the season, supplemented by a big delef ition of Havre fans, was on hand for the game. Great Falls was more effective from the field, splitting the net for 16 field goals as Havre collected 15 baskets. The Ponies displayed greater accuracy on gift shots, converting 13 of 23 chances. Great Falls made 8 of 16 chances. Havre took a 1-0 lead shortly after the game started but Great Falls went ahead 2-1 on Hill's basket.

Kuka tallied for the Ponies and the visitors went ahead to stay. The first period ended 13-8 for Havre and the margin of difference lay in 5 points the Ponies got from the gift line. Midway in the second quarter. Great Falls lost Hill, the first of the three regulars who went out ort personals. Arneson, a new recruit from the Reserves, proved an able replacement, however, and the Bisons continued to make a bid.

Havre's advantage in size, however, brought results often as Pos-senti and Kuka got numerous rebounds and controlled tip-offs. Meanwhile. Great Falls was forced to work the ball in for closeups. At the half, Great Falls trailed 26-19. The locals got stronger in the third period and cut the visitors' lead to 30-24.

Mclnnis was lost on fouls a short time later and Bison chances received another jolt. The quarter ended 37-27 for Havre. The Bisons lost Scharrer, regular center, with about 4 minutes to play and Havre leading 38-35. A short while later Havre led 43-37 and then a basket by Patterson and one gift shot by Safransky completed Great Falls' scoring. Statistics of the game showed that 20 fouls were called on the locals and 13 on Havre.

Many of the decisions of the officials were booed by the spectators. High scoring honors for the game went to Possenti, Havre center, who shot with either hand and collected 13 points. Kuka of Havre and Scharrer of Great Falls followed with 11 points each. Arneson of the Bisons was next with 8 points. Belt was slightly off form as they lost to the high-stepping Reserves.

The locals led 6-0 in the first quarter, 18-4 at the half and 29-7 when the third period ended.

Feb. 17. UP) Chuck Fenske, the 1940 mile running sensation, ran his winning streak to five straight tonight in capturing the 27th running of the New York A. Baxter mile in 4 minutes 7.4 seconds. Putting on a killing sprint for the last three-quarters of a lap, the bespectacled University of Wisconsin graduate student (ollared Lou Zam-perini in 40 yards of straightaway and then won by three yards.

The time equaled the fastest ever recorded indoors for a competitive race, turned in by Glenn Cunningham in the 1938 Knights of Columbus games and matched by Fenske two weeks ago in the Millrose meet, when he beat Cunningham by three yards. Tonight Glenn suffered his worst defeat of his poorest season. Beaten five times up to this race, once by Gene Venzke and four times by Fenske, he could do no better than fourth as Venzke shaded him for third place. Greg Rice, former Notre Dame captain, evened his score with Don Lash for the season at three-all by winning the two-mile run in 9:04.2 Lash, for once, didn't even figure in the closing sprint, in which Rice opened up a five-yard margin on Tommy Deckard. Long John Woodruff won his second straight Madison Square garden half-mile race of the season as he nipped John Borican at the wire to take the Halpin 880 in 1 minute 52.8 seconds, equal to the meet and Garden records.

Long John won the Millrose 880 in identical time two weeks ago. Gonzaga Evens Series With Montana Grizzlier By 60 to 53 Victory SPOKANE. Feb. 17. (P) Gonzaga university, smothered last night by a sharpshooting Montana State university basketball team, gained an even break in their two-game series by trouncing Montana's Grizzlies, 60 to 53 tonight.

Last night's score was 74 to 58. The winners led at the half, 34 to 29. The teams worked harder tonight for their scores than in last night's scramble, but the game still was definitely of the fire department brand. Leather was pouring through the rings from the first minute to the last and Frank Watson, Gonzaga's scoring ace, boosted his season total above the 300 mark by dumping in 27 tallies to set the pace. Big Frank warmed up after the teams had battled on even terms for seven minutes, and before the first half was over had counted 20 points.

Gonzaga spread its margin to 11 points at one stage of the period then switched to defensive tactics and Montana swiftly shrank the lead to five. Bill Hall and Bill Jones led Montana sallies that twice closed the gap to four points in the second half, but Gonzaga met each challenge with a scoring burst of its own. Pet.

The locals led from the start and held the visitors scoreless for the first two periods.

Ice conditions hampered the play of both teams, as the slush-covered surface made the puck uncontrollable. Joe Isaacson scored in the first period to give the locals a 1-0 lead. Mervin Anderson, Falls center, added another in the next period and the locals led 2-0. Cut Bank started a "powerhouse" attack in the last period and managed to get a pair of goals, but Olsen tallied for the locals and the count was 3-2. Near the end of the game a Cut Bank player emerged from a skirmish near his own goal with the puck, but it hit his skate and bounded into the net for a Great Falls score.

Great Falls invades Butte today for a state league contest against the fast-stepping School of Mines team. The Orediggers are leading the state league and hold one victory over the locals already this season. Dulton Cagers Hand Ursulines Their Fourth Defeat, 39-26 DUTTON. Feb. 17.

17. (JF) Horse experts agree on but one point in regard to the running of the $50,000 Santa Anita derby on Washington's birthday. The field, they believe, will be large. With less than a week remaining before the rich derby is run off for the sixth time, there seems to be no outstanding favorite, and if the field is as populous as expected a favorite may as easily as not get lost in the scramble. Nineteen or so colts and fillies might be listed in the "probable starter" ranks, and there are no less than 15 others that may join the lineup.
