The game scheduled for tonight is one that is attracting wide attention, as it is the first time two big dental colleges have met on the hardwood floor.

Should the Hoosier Tooth Pullers be able to defeat the Northwestern Dental team and the speedy St. Joseph College quintette, their record would compare favorably with some of the strongest teams in the State.

Northwestern University Dentals have been making a fine record in their games against college and independent teams in and near Chicago this year. The Indianapolis team will start tonight's game with the same line-up that defeated Butler, but Reeve probably will be used for part of the game at forward.

High school bas iet gossip
This will be somewhat of a whiff-bnng-bing week-end for Indianapolis high school basket combinations, six games being on the schedules of the Manual, Shortridge, Technical and Cathedral tec ms. Manual swings into action at Rochester tonight and tomorrow evening will fir.d them showing their wares on the Huntington court. These are two battles that any team could well be proud of winning and if the Red and White athletes can deliver .the big counts their stock will be boosted. Morrison’s team will be stionger in this week-end's gJi?s than it was when Tipton was handed such a nifty trimmming on the Y. M. C. A. floor here lust Saturday night, but the Rochester and Huntington teams are far torond comparison with tho Tipton crew, and the South Siders are going to ha,e to pi-y better basket-ball than they have to date to return victorious. Shortridge will Journey to Lebanon for battiv* with that team tomorrow night. The boys from up Aorth are going to have to fool the dopesters to win this contest, but they are not exiled from the upset class and feel as though they can turn the trick. Martipsville handed the Shortridgers a neat trimming last week but Coach Julius’ men came back andpalyed their best basket-ball this week to trounce the -Plainfield crowd and their followers are backing them to take Lebanon into camp and start breezing along iu fine style for their sectional play. Tech should give Indianapolis fans something to shout about when they meet Bloomington on the Y. M. C. A. t’-'or tomorrow night. Tho last three efforts of the Green and White have been . a ued with victories over Wiley and Gai field of Terre Haute and over the Motresville team. The locals piled up monster totals in each of these games, while their opponents were held to close counts. So it looks like Tech is away on the right foot this time and is not going to jet anything small stop their victory parade. Al Feeney's Cathdral lads will plav a return game with the Deaf and Dumb School quintette on the Deaf School floor tonight, and tomorrow evening will bring them to grips with the Central Catholic High of Ft. YVayne on the Shortridge

However, tqmorrow night’s story is a different one. The Ft. Wayne Centrals have been traveling Just about as fast as the locals and it is going to take some real basketball to put them on the short side of the ledger.

HOPES FOR BIG BOUT DWINDLE Staging Carpentier - Dempsey Match Believed Too Great for One Promoter. NEW YORK, Jan. 21. —Latest developments in the Dempsey-Carpentier fight promotion tangle have added uncertainty to it today. Tex Rickard has offered to take over William A. Brady’s interest in the fight and Charles B. Cochran’s, as well, if Cochran really wants to get out. Brady has cabled his London associate, advising him of Rickard’s proposition, and will reserve decision until he receives a reply. If Cochran wants to go ahead with the proposition Rickard wiU string along with him. Otherwise he will assume the $500,000 guarantee to the fighters and attempt to stage the big bout himself, he says. Officials of the Central Union Trust Company are authority for the statement that Dempsey’s bond is not in their possession. There is mystery regarding the champion’s forfeit,, as even Jack Kearns does not appear to know where the bond is. Tex Rickard is a daring promoter, but he is not in the promotion game for his health, and a $500,000 fight in this or any other country looks like a bigger bite than the hungriest promoter could possibly masticate. So the fate of the fabulous purse and the big fight is hanging by a mere thread. CANADIANS SAY THEY WANT IT OTTAWA, Jan. 21.—1 t was reiterated today by sportsmen from Ottawa and Hull, just across the river, that the offer to hold the Dempsey-Carpentier heavyweight championship bout at Hull next summer still holds good, nnd that it was hoped Tex Rickard will come to Canada to discuss the proposition, along with other plans submitted from Canada.
