Just gett-l ing a start in the hardcourt game' and with a small and inexperienced squad, is not expected to do] much In this tourney. They may surprise the fans, though. Michigan City, with a record of I nine victories in 14 starts, should I cause some teams plenty of, trouble and. if they can get by Central Catholic of Hammond.] should get into the semi finals. The] Golden Meteors have lost two] games to Hammond, 33 to 22 and; 16 to 15. If the second is an in-; dication of improvement, then ] watch out for Michigan City. The Meteors have beaten St. Hedwige of South Bend, another tourna-! ■ ment team, twice, 7 to 5 and 31 ] to 23. With only two seasoned players on the squad, St. Paul's of Marion will come to Fort Wayne seeking] state honors. Lacking height, but - with an abundance of fight, the | Marion squad brings a record of five wins and two losses. Two seniors. Jack Bailey, cent-> er and co-Capt.

Quintets which must be ] considered are Central Catholic of Fort Wayne, which will have the ] 1 advantage of playing on the home ] floor; St. Mary'so f Huntington. ] ] the defending champion; and Cath-] j olic Central of Hammond. —oOo — The Decatur Commodores should , I have little difficulty in reaching | the semi-final round. Drawing a bye in the first round, the Commies will meet the winner of the Michij gan City-South Bend game, at 6 ]p. nt. Saturday. These two teams, ]on season's records, are two of the weaker quintets entered and with added strain of playing in the morning, should not be too tough for the Commodores, who at least partially regained their earlyseason form in their final game of the season Sunday afternoon at Delphos, Ohio. —oOo— To those fans unable to attend the tourney, the Democrat will render the best telephone service possible.

(U.PJ Sihedub'H for the new system of play to be,used in the 25th renewal of the Indiana High School Athlet Aaooclation basketball tourna ment will be drawn here Friday. The drawing probably will take approximately 15 minutes longer than usual for Commissioner Arthur L. Trester and the five memberx of the board of control must arrange the schedule for semi-final 1 tournaments, required under the new system. The schedules and additional i tournament information will be announced ut 9 a. tn.. Saturday. Although the definite number of entries will not be announced until after the drawing, it is expect ed to approximate M 0 teams and establish a new record for the tournament. Perennial increases have been recorded in the entry list during the lust few years. According to the new system, the opening round will be played in 64 sectional tournaments March 5. 6 and 7. Sectionals entertaining 13 or more teams will start competition a week from tomorrow. Others will play two-day sectional tournaments. The 64 survivors will compete in regional tournaments at 16 centers the following Saturday. March 14. Gary. Muncie, Indianapolis and Vincennes will entertain semi final tournaments March 21 to cut the field to four teams for the state finals at the Butler fieldhouse here March 28. Vnder the old system. 16 teams came directly to Indianapolis from ■the regional tournaments. The champion and runner-up were forced to play three games on the last day of the finals. Much agitation was expressed against the tournament system by those who claimed the physical strain was too great on the young athletes. The board of control already has announced that a questionnaire will be sent school principals at the close of the 1936 tournament for criticism. The association's lease on the Butler fieldhouse also has only one more year to run, and Commissioner Trester indicated he desired re-
