There is so much said about Hoosier basketball and now local fans will he] iglvcn an opportunity to witness this] I style of the court game.

[ “Tlie Decatur Commodores are otic of the best outfits in Indiana 'and last year were runnersup in tlie j National Catholic championship at j Chicago.

DEMPSEY WILL OPEN CAMPAIGN! Editor’s note: This is the first! of a series of articled concerning! Jack Dempsey by George Klrksey, ] United Press midwest sports writer.; Klrksey is accompanying Dempsey I on the former champion's second ] exhibition tour which the boxer ts making to determine whether ho Is [ ready for an attempt to regain the championship he lost to Oene Tun Bey and now held by Max Schmel tug. United Press, Chicago.’ By George Kirksey, UP Slat! Correspondent Milwaukee. Feb. B.— (U.R) -The comeback trail along which no ! heavyweight champion ever heat 1 back today lay ahead of Jack Demp- j sey. Dempsey, who was champion I from 1919 until 1926, will open the I second phase of Ills exhibition tour here tonight. Ho meets a couple j of "cousins'’ as part of his campaign toward the goal which eluded Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons and Jim Jeffries. Dempsey made 25 appearances on j his first exhibition tour since Aug-i ust 19, 1931, with financial success, j The present tour will bring to au end Dempsey's boxing career or will! send him on to laurels achieved by no other heavyweight. If Demv-sey is kidding tils public, ] he has only about six months at! most to continue along that line, i He must cither prove that he ts; [trying to get himself in condition to win back the title lie held fori seven years or go into retirement t forever. I Dempsey is a man of (hoods. To- j day he’ll tell his closest friends he I is sincere in his attempt to fight again. Tomorrow he'll say he uev- j er intends to fight again. It should be stated now that financial matters have nothing to ] do with Dempsey’s future, in or out of tlie boxing ring. Dempsey can live comfortably the rest of his days if he never gets another dollar from tllff boxing game. Dempsey has an explosive instinct in his makeup which demands that lie must lie doing something. He can’t remain idle. He only knows how to do one thing ■ and that is fight. It is only natur-1 al that he should exhaust his fight- I sling ability. Even at 36, he retains [many of the qualities which enabL iled him to slaughter Jeer Willard > on a broiling July day m 1919. 1 Again Jack Roper. Los Angeles,] and Buck Everett, Gary, ind., toil night. Dempsey may appear only a; •' shell of the tighter who once ruled ; ,: the heavyweights with iron fists. : Tile result won't bo the final ans- ( • wer to Dempsey’s attempt to come j ' back. He met Roper twice In first ex--1 liihit ion tour and failed to make an impressive showing. It is not Dempsey s object to impress the public with his ability, Ilis main object is to get himself into the best physical condition . iMJssible. I asked Dempsey if he i tried to knock out every opponent i he faced. His answer was: "Must 1 murder a lot of nice fellows or .should I content myself to carry them along and work myself into condition? When 1 have a tougli opponent facing me i cu: loose but there are certain times when it does me more good to carry an opponent along instead of trying to finish him.” Whether flempsey can light again or not is a question for debate. However, one tiling is certain, lie! is more popular with tlie public now than he ever was as champion. When he arrived in Chicago Saturday 1,5110 persons waded through snow and slush and waited for an hour to meet, a late train just to see him. When lie worked out 3,000 persons crowded the small dingy upstairs enclosure. More than 1.000 were unable to get in. Kid Howard, manager of the gym, said in 20 years he had never seen a crowd equal to that which stormed his place to see Dempsey. "Dempsey worked out in my gym many times while In- was champion tint he nevt <■ drew a crowd like j this one.” Dempsey was met on his arrival i here by a largo crowd. He went to a gymnasium to workout and found 5,0*10 tans to greet him. The crowd trails Dempsey whereover he goes. “Those people think I can fight j again,” Dempsey remarked. "I can't I kid ’em. I have cither got to show j them something or quit for good. I am trying to get ready to go back : into action.” DEATH CLAIMS' | S. W. PETERSON (CONTINUED FROM FACE ONE: j i uliiics of tlie county.

BARTON TRIAL STARTS TODAY (CONTINUED FROM PACK ONZ) ! anticipated due to the publicity [given Barton’s arrest three days [after Lorenz Capelll, Frank Valen‘tino and Albert Frohattu, all of I Chicago Heights. 111., had alleged|ly confessed to participating in bank robberies and named Barton ’as the "fixer.” Tlie trio were said to have confessed that Barton promised them protection when they robbed hanks ill the county of which lie was sher- ! iff. Dunkirk however, lies partly in Jay county and Barton assertedly ] was unable to assist the men after their arrest. According to the re- ! pitted confessions, the former sheriff met secretly with the trio to ! plan the robberies and gave them [lndiana license plates for their i automobile.
