Feb 22 <U-R> •«'» on.- week to the day from the first whistle in Indiana’s springtime madness, the 1940 high school has I ketball tourney, and the cryin* towels already are making the , rounds with abandon in more than one sectional where the shooting is bound to be tough. Among them are Fort Wayne, where North and Houth Side meet and aiso face a small-timer named la-o; Muncie, tossing together Burris and Central; Evansville where Kelt*. Central und Bosse dash; and Anderson where Indians. Alexandria and Elwood meet In the same shaker. But from another angle, how about New Castle. Franklin and Marlon’ There may not lie any "big" s. hiMil* hanging around the edges ' of shefr sectionals, but none of the three are out in the dear for regional piay yet.

The chance* of < arrytng an undefeated record into the tourney appeat excellent today as they face a weak Edinburg team tomorrow New Castle's string* Allen, al-1 though sprouting a few of the grey ; Sines, hasn't as mil* h cause to worry about the Mooreland quintet that his Trojans probably will face as hi* dub appear* much stronger than Franklin and the HOPI MARATHON WINNER COMING TO SPORTS SHOW i w |.ff , “Littl* Eagle" from the Hopt Indian reservation in Arizona, who gained nation-wide fame when he won the Golden Gat* Marathon, will visit Indianapolis for the duration of the Indiana Sportsmen'* Show March Isl to 24 at th* State Fair Ground*.
