COACHES TUNE UP BASKETEERS FOR SECTIONALS With Drawings Made. High School Teams Open Final Training for Title Games. LOCAL INTEREST KEEN With the drawings made and announced for the Indiana high school bas ketball championship tournament, the greatest Hoosier athletic event of the year and the largest basketball classic of the world, coaches throughout the state today rolled up their sleeves and started their teams through the hard grinds that are to put the finishing touches on their preparations for the sectional meets. The high school basket quintets are stronger this year than ever before and competition In the twenty-six sectionals promises to be the keenest in the history of the association. Every team in Indiana is speculating on its chances to cop the honors in its district and then take the state laurels at the finals at Bloomington. Friday and Saturday will see 43a teams in action in the twenty-six sectional meets. This is a gain of eightyeight teams and four sectionals over last year: 4,333 hoys are registered for com petition in the district play. On March 11. 12 and 13 the winners of the district tourneys will combat on the Indiana uni versftv court at Bloomington. Ind., for the high school title of the state. The little gossip bugs that float hither and thither among the basket fans about this time every year are whispering things about rim Indianapolis sectional showing signs of developing into the most sensational of the entire tourney, and with Manual and Technical carded in clash in the first round at 11 o’clock Friday morning, it is a certainty that the competition and rooting of the first morning will come up to anything that Is shown in the final scrap. Short ridge drew Southport for its first-round battle and the two teams will take the court at 4 o’clock Friday afternoon. SMALLER TEAMS THREATEN LOCALS. There is a chance for two Indianapolis teams to clash again in the final round, providing they come through the preliminary contests with colors flying. Os course. Indianapolis pupils and fans believe that the local teams can trim anything in the sectional, but the fellows who use the "dope needle" arc going to

CHAMPION CUEISTS HERE TODAY

This afternoon at 2:3© Cooler's billiard academy was to be the rendezvous of the greatest bfliiard attrateion on earth. Hoppe and Peterson that’s all. Hoppe has ruled through a span of fourteen consecutive years in his particular field of endeavor and who. despite this long reign, is row in better stroke than at any time during his brilliant career, will demonstrate to the local enthusiasts just why he has been properly termed the cue master. Charles C. Peterson, one of the roost prominent billiard players in America, and the greatest fancy shot player living. will be Hoppe’s opponent at each of the four sessions to be played today watch the Valley Mills. Southport. Broad Ripple and Cumberland teams closely. The youngsters from Valley Mills hare attracted quite a bit of attention by their exceptional playing recently and, despite their size. they can be relied upon to travel a fast pace. The Southport players are about as husky as anything in the state and can plav just as hard a game as the rest of them. The Valley Mills team is credited with a victory over Southport, scored recentlv on the Marion club court. The Broad Ripple fellows are also dangerous. This team, with Garrett as the leader in both defensive and offensive work, will . wear out a team Os ordinary strength ; before the first period play is over, then stack tip a big total in the closing Morrison and his Manual players ! may spring the surprise of the local tourney. The little south side mentor has a habit of holding in his prize stuff until the last minute and then throwing It at his opponents in one big bunch. His athletes haven’t been going at breakneck speed this year but when asked about what he is going to do In the sectional Morrison answered, "atch our smoke” The Tech team has been going groat and the Red and White probably will cop the championship ff they defeat the east slders in the first round battle. WHERE SECTIONALS WILL BE HELD. The list of cities where sectinoal mets will be held and the number of teams scheduled to compete in each, are as follows: Auburn. 16 teams: Anderson, 18- Bedford. 18: Bloomington. 15; Blufton 16; Clinton. 20; Columbus. 19, Evansville. 20: Franklin, li): Greencastle. Si- Huntington. 16: Indianapolis, 10: Kendnllville. 16: Kokomo. 14: Lafayette, Lebanon, 14; Logansport, 14; Mar tinsville. 35: Muncie, 20; Newcastle, 18; Rochester. 16; Rushvlle. 21: South Bend. 16; Valparaiso. 16; Vecdersburg. 14: Vincennes. IS. It, was the idea of the members of h board of control, when they met in Kokomo Saturday afternoon, to establish centers at Seymour and Richmond, and have an equal number of schools in each district, but the geographical locations were not suited for this purpose and the plan was abandoned. Practically as much statewide interest will be shown in some of the district meets as in the Bloomington finals. Anderson gets a sectional tourney. 'He An dereon team holds a front row position among the state talent and is almost sure of a place in the finals. However, the Anderson athletes will hatse to eliminate some crack teams to come out on top. The Seymour warriors are also in line for a contest at Bloomington. They play In the Bedford district, opening against Loogootee at 8 o’clock Friday morning. The teams in the Bloomington district have not established wonderful records this season, and the Bloomington scrappers should cop the district with ease. Bluffton. Dunkirk and Hartford City look like the best bets In the Bluffton meet. THREE DAYS OF PLAY AT CLINTON. There are twenty teams entered in the Clinton district, and It will take three davs to run through the schedule of play. Bloomlngdale has never faited to turn eut a bunch of husky scrappers and their boasts of copping the Clinton sectional appears fairly well grounded to most of the fans In Hoosierdom. Anybody that has followed the game with the least bit •f interest this year will admit that Franklin is going to go south with the pennant in its center. There will be lots of fun on the open lug day a; Kokomo, when Kokotno and Tipton clash. These two schools have about as much use for each other as women have for mice, and the fur will fly before the winner of their game is announced. The Kokomo team is the alight favorite to win. Martinsville High school stsnds out in front in the Martinsville sector. Mooresville and Lizton will be there to stop here, but there is doubt as to their ability to do so. The Muacle tourney, with twenty entrants, will also run three, days. Competition In this event is doped to run ®ueh stronger than usual and no winder pickers have rushed to the front as Jet. The teams entered in the other district meets have been battling ftirlv even during the season and the dopesters In this section are lucking pointers for advance information. Braden Leaves Yale NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 1. —Jim Braden. Vale football fullback and track st.nr has left college because of injuries received during the gridiron season. Braden lost so much time and rel! so far behind In his studies that ho decided to accept a trer diploma instead of trying for the regular degree next June.

First State Tourney for Amateurs Ends With Anderson Best Independent Basket Meet Voted Success by Fans— Hutchison Winners’ Star. Amateur Tourney Windup ( SEMI-FINALS. Vincennes. 31 : Evansville, 20. Anderson, 20; South Side Turners. 14. FINALS. Anderson, 27; Vincennes, 16. With the victory of the Anderson Y. M. C. A. five over the Vincennes quintet late Saturday, 27 to 36, at the local Y. M, C. A., the first annual state 150-pound independent amateur basketball tournament was brought to a successful close. Vincennes put up a game fight, but li was unable to stop the rushes of the Madison county boys, wbo got a safe, lead early and were not given much stiff opposition until near the windup, when Anderson made a terrific effort to swell Its score, an effort which got points but which fell far short of what Anderson already had amassed. NEW VENTURE DROVES POPULAR. The tourney was an entire success and Director Emmelman was congratulated on all sides for the efficient manner in which he organized and carried out the new venture in Indiana basketball. Eighteen teams, representing various sections of the state, competed in the two days' playing and the class game and sportsmanship was of high order throughout. The three referees, Feezel. Head and Behrent, handled the contests tu fast style, and fans who attended' expressed satisfaction over the smooth manner in which the games moved along. The tournament established the fact that independent amateur basketball has a large following, as fans came to the city from all over the state, and future meets no doubt will Increase In popular ;tv as the seasons go by. Hutchison, center, was the star of the victorious Anderson team, his basket shooting being a feature of nearly every game his quintet played. For Vincennes. Ulery and Klxmll.er displayed the best form throughout the meet. Speck and Burlingame also were Anderson stars by their effective guarding,

and tomorrow at the local parlor. The program for this afternoon was to he an educational lecture on how blllards should be -played, demonstrating the most important shots in the game by ’harles C. Peterson. Hoppe and Peterson were then to play a 250-polnt billiard game and to conclude the program Peterson was to give an exhibition of fancy shots which nave made him famous throughout America. Ralph Greenleaf, one of the wonders of the billiard world, and holder of the pocket billiard title, will be opposed by Jerome Keogh, a five time holder of the world’s title, on Wednesday and Thursday at the Cooler parlor. and Woods, forward, produced a few thrills by his clever dribbling. TURNERS MAKE ANDERSON FIGHT. In order to reach the finals Vincennes eliminated the strong Evansville Lincolns in the semi-finals, 31 to 20. and Anderson put the skids under the Indianapolis South Side Turners, 20 to 14. The Turners lost their basket eyes and Mid dlesworth was the onlv local player who seemed able to find the draperies. The Turners reached the semi finals by defeating the Darlington Bearcats in a rough g-ime. 9 to 3. The south side boys didn't lose any of their fighting ability in the semi-finals with Anderson, and they made the Madison county aggregn tion go the limit in order to stay In front.
