STATETOURNEY IS JEOPARDIZED Bill To Prohibit Marathons Would Curtail State Tourney Indianapolis, Jun. 22 <U.R) Possible Intervention with tli«' finals of the stat, high school basketball tournament and the 500-rnile speedway ra<» today stalemated discussion by the house morals committee of a bill whica would prohibit marathons. The bill, introduced by Repres< atatives Morris Coens. I)., Indianapolis, and Roberta West Nich olson. it., Indianapolis, defined .1 marathon as "any contest participated in by two or more persons which continues for more than 12' hours.” Rep. Lenhardt E. Hauer. D. Terre Haute, .ailed attention of the committee members to the fact that the state tournament would be included under terms of the bill. Rep. Horace 11. Willan, I).. Martinsville, former physician for the Martinsville high school has- ! ketball team, said that the present ; two-day schedule for the finals ' was injurious to the health of the 1 players, and that the play should 1 be extended over three days. I Rep. Willan said that stimulants wore given members of a , championship Martinsville team between games several seasons j ago and that one participant had j a severe ease of heart disease. ; A proposed amendment which ; would require eight hours of rest 1 out of every 12 hours probably 1 would jeopardize the speedway | race. The bill was directed primarily 1 at dance and walking marathons. A subcommittee of Representatives Bauer. Nicholson and W illan was appointed to confer with the I state hoard of health with the I view of making the I ill a public I health measure. —— ‘ COLLEGE SCORES Michigan 19.

FriI day the Columbia City Eagles will: i play at the local gym. Saturday.' | the Jackets will trade Held goals' with the Central Tigers of Fort Wayne., Tins game will be played 1 at the North Side gym, as the Cen- j I tral gym is to be the scene of the' annual Allen county tourney Fri- ' day and Saturday.. —-000 — This week's contests will just about settie Decatur’s fate in the northeastern Indiana conference race. The Jackets have won two of three games, defeating North Side and Auburn and losing to South Side. —oOo— On comparative scores. Decatur apparently has a slight advantage over Columbia City but the Eagles, under the direction of Abe DeVol, have a habit of giving the locals a terrific battle season after season. —oOo — The Jackets' contest with Central Saturday night is a natural. Not only are the two schools great rivals, but fans remember the thriuer the teams put on in the invitational tourney at Fort Wayne last month. Central nosed out a three-point victory in that game and another good contest is expected. —oOo— The Commodores Friday night will attempt to do what no other Adams county team has been able to accomplish this season—defeat the Berne Bears at Berne. The only game lost by the Bears this year was to the Portland Panthers. —oOo— Berne will tackle anothvr tough foe Saturday night.. The Bears will journey to Fort Wayne to meet the South Side Arcliers and the Arch- ( era are plenty tough.
