Jan. 12.—<U.R> Putting the sports shot here and there: Since Fred Perry turned professional an even 3.000 prophets have gone on record as saying that the 1937 Davis cup competition is a cinch for the United States —I wonder if the prophets would like to risk something other than their reputations on America s chances? Money says Germany will win it, and the Australians, not the Americans, will be tlie chief Nazi hurdle ... Os course. Germany may not get a chance to win it. now that anti-swastika leagues are carrying their dislikes of Hitler into the realm of sport . . . Speaking of I) oyc 011 organizations. my guess is tnat Madison Square Garde.n. Mike Jacobs, and Jim Braddock are so grateful for the uproar against Max Schnieling that they would gladly contribute to the campaign fund . . . After all. Schnieling and Braddock figured to draw haircut money, while Jim and Joe Louis is good for half a million or more. Talks with representatives of several sporting goods houses lias convinced me that the U. S. G. A.’s 14-club ruling will make money, rather than lose it. for the mantifacttTrers . . . The edict sounded the death knell for the dozens of trick and fad clubs the golf companies manufactured — uud got stuck with —each year . . Take ail the golf bags in all the clubs in the country, and the average number of sticks in each would be between eight and ten . . . Now. with 14 established as the proper number, your average golfer will want to increase his armory to the standard size . . . Did you know that several of the golf ball companies can produce a ball which will travel 75 to 100 yards fuarther than the present ball any day they want to? . . . But they aren't likely to, for the reason that such a ball would revolutionize golf ... It would play havoc with the courses, making par fours, par fours, par threes, etc . . . And it would require an entire new set of weapons . . . Steve Owen, coach of the Pro Giants, rates Sammy Baugh, the Texas Christian ace, as the best football player he ever saw . . . Y’et I'll bet if Steve could have his choice between Baugh and Ken Strong, when Ken was in his prime, he'd take the big New York uni-

ILLINOIS FIVE i BEATS INDIANA —— I Hobsiers Victims 01 I P‘ set; Purdue Wins Third In Row Chicago, Jan. 12. — (U.R> '" r due's Boilermakers commanded an undisputed lead in the Big Ten basketball race today with Indiana plunged Into third place by a dangeroiiH new challenger. Illinois, once defeated but grow-: Ing stronger with every game. 1 whipped the Hoosiers soundly last night in the first major upset of i the season, 40 to 31. While the improved mini scored the victory that may cost Indiana I its second straight title, the Boiler-. makers virtually eliminated lowa, with its second defeat. 35 to 31. Ohio State opened its conference season by trimming Wisconsin. 23 to 22. Michigan reached a .500 rating with its first triumph over Northwestern. 34 to 31. Minnesota, also playing its first in the conference, beat Chicago with little dis-j Acuity, 30 to 23. Indiana's defeat came from an unxpected quarter —a flawless defense by the once lax Illini. Despite the best efforts of co-cap-tains. Ken Gunning and Vernon Huffman, the Hoosiers dumped in only two field goals the entire first half while Illinois raced away to an 18 to 7 lead. Harry Combes, veteran guard, led the Illini for the second time, scoring 16 points of his own and directing an auxiliary offense by Capt. Bob Reigel and Louie Boudreau. who tallied 11 points each. Once in the lead. Purdue defeat- : ed lowa with free throws when the desperate Hawkeyes attempted to force the play. Jim Seward and Pat Malaska managed to score a field goal each, but 11 free throws easily protected the Boilermakers' lead. The same tight defense that defeated Northwestern last week helped lowa slow Purdue s scoring leader. Jewell Young, to 1(1 points, least he has scored in tliree games. Neither Ohio State nor Minnesota made impressive debuts, although both pulled out victories under wraps. Michigan's defeat of Northwestern, second for the Wildcats in three days, bumped them far down the conference standings and probably (tided their title hopes.
