Rokrlrr Cathedral. The favorites Cathedral and Rokeby entered the finals of the class state district elimination tournament at the Ag college Friday night as each came thru in Ka semifinal test. Cathedral's march into the final bracket was far more convincing than that of Rokeby, the latter be ing forced to edge out a 24-21 tri umph over Hickman. Father Obrist's lads cut loose with another powerful barrage of field goals to check Greenwood, 38-14. The Bluebirds, led by Dick Beilharz, enjoyed a 22-4 advantage at the intermission, Dick account' ed for a dozen tallies, all in the opening half, to lead the scorers Carl Lee and Schrader, Coach Turner's ace performers, set the pace for Rokeby'a triumph.

Lee registered his field goal in the final minute of play icing the contest for the winners. Schrader chalked up eight markers, four of them from the foul line. Hedges Seti Pice. Hickman's sharp shooters were off color, missing any number of setup shots and converting only five out of fourteen girt opportunities. Forward Hedges banged the hoop for a half dozen baskets to lead Panama to a 32-16 win over Denton in one consolation game while Kettlehut set the pace for Walton's flippers in their 25-10 win over Pleasant Dale.

Merri-man, J. Moore and Julian each scored five markers for the winners. This Is the first year that Pleasant-Dale has had a basketball team.

In the wake of the biggest financial flop since heavyweight championship boxing was a fugitive sport, ponderous irimo Camera decided aenmteiy to make a fistic tour of South American capitals in an attempt to shake off the jinx that has kept him in bankruptcy since he won the title from Jack Sharkey. Despite the fact some progress waa made here toward reconciling the conflicting interests seeking to mtu.cn we nuge iiauan a uue bout this June in New York with Max Baer, Camera's manager, Louis Sorest, flatly declared negotiations for the Baer match would be dropped in favor of offers for matches in Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Rio De Janeiro and possibly Lima, reru. "We are tired of collecting chicken feed and then being given tne runaround on the one match, with Baer, that will mean real money," declared Sorest. "Camera is thru dallying with Baer, who goes around talking as tho he and not Prlmo is the champion. We will leave the end of March for Buenos Aires and hope to get a.

match there with Victorio Campollo. If the Madison Square Garden pro moters, who have shown so far they do not know, how to promote, can sign tsaer, we win De wming, if necessary, to fly back to the United States." 8,624 Cash Customers. Gross receipts were revealed as only $44,598.70 for Thursday night's fifteen round championship bout in the Madison Square Garden stadium, where, between the showers, Camera bulled his way to a decisive victory on points, but yielded prestige, popularity and glory to gallant little Tommy Loughran, who made an amazingly courageous stand against insurmountable physical odds and never once was knocked from his feet by his 270 pound opponent. There were' only 8,624 actual cash customers In an aggregate crowd of probably 12,000. The net receipts, after deduction of the federal tax, totaled $39,361,60, a figure that marks the lowest ebb in heavyweight boxing since prize fighting was conducted by outlaw methods, Camera's financial situation hardly was much improved by his share, 87 1-2 percent or about OOO.

The champion is already In bankruptcy and slated to appear In court in New York March 12 in a further attempt to untangle his affairs. Loughran's end amounted to 12 1-2 percent or $5,000. The net loss to the promoters may reach $30,000, the upshot of which is a revival of reports there will be a shakeup in the boxing organization or Madison Square uaraen.

Jackson's defeat tumbled it into second place in the league standings, College View automatically becoming champion with eleven victories in twelve starts. The loss for the Beechners was their second in twelve league tilts.

To Case goes credit for providing the slender margin of victory, but chunky Luke Miller in reality the fair haired boy in the Gately's lineup.

With the score knotted at 14-all and six minutes remaining, Miller snapped, up a loose ball and rammed in a counter, then dribbled the length of the floor to drop in another to run it to 18-14 with two minutes left. Case Miuea First Time. A great comeback is all that saved the Beechners from a worse licking than they drew, Barrett and Strom arching in long ones in the final two minutes. In a wild scramble under the Havelock goal, W. Davis fouled Case just as the gun boomed.

With two cracks at the ring for a Havelock win, Case took it the hard way and slipped in the second charity flip after his first effort rimmed the hoop. But for a brief period early in the second quarter, Havelock held a sum ieaa inruout. limiting jacx son to two field goals, the Shop town five led 9-6 at the half after making a 4-2 pace a the opening 1UUUU.

Earl Mahagan did a fine job of adowing Wee Willie Martin, the Jackson ace.
