Manual and Tech Reach Semi-Finals of Tourney

Tech Takes on Broad Ripple and South Siders Meet West Newton. FAST MORNING GAMES By WOODY. Technical High wf Indianapolis was to meet Broad Ripple and Manual of Indianapolis was to take on West Newton in the semi-finals of the Indianaoplls sectional play in the State higu school basket-ball championship tournament on the Coliseum fioor this afternoon. * Technical and Broad Ripple were to go .to the mat at 2 o'clock and the Manual--1 West Newton affair was scheduled for ’ one hour later. This looked like a wonderful opportunity for the Indianapolis trains to come through to the final round, then battle for the right to represent this city in the regional games at Bloom ington, where the Indianapolis winners play. Technical seemed to have the easiest proposition in playing the Broad Ripple team. The Ripple athletes have onlybeen playing a creditable game for the past few weeks and it was thought that their present speedy pace would be cut somewhat when they stacked Into the Green and White crew. However, the Tech game has not been much to talk about during the tourney and there were quite a few fans who expected to see the Rippleites make the locals hustle. Tech defeated Valley Mills last night to go into the semi-finals, while Broad Ripple had to down *Ben Davis this morning in one of the hardest fights of the tournament to go into the round before the last. The hard morning fight also was expected to tell on thetstrength of the Ripple team. NEWTON TEAM HAS FORM. Manual faces a neat chunk of opposition In the Newton crew. The big fellows from "the sticks" have been playing good ball all season. Manual won over Oaklandon in a rather fast game this morning, while Newton went into the sem-finals by handing the West Newton gang a lacing. If things should work out this afternoon to bring Manual and Tech together in the final tilt tonight, then the fans will see a real court scrap. Manual eliminated Shortridge in the opening round yesterday and the win gave the south siders plenty of confidence in their ability to go right on through for the sectional laurels. The winning combination in the Indianapolis sectional will go to Bloomington next Saturday to meet the winner of the Vincennes meet. The winner of this game then will meet the winner of the Owensville-Rushville Bloomington regional contest in the fltC game on the State final card at the Coliseum the following Friday. Sixteen teams will play one round of gaums at the Bloomington regional and sixteen otheq sectional champs will stage their regional battles at Lafayette, the eight winners at each place to meet in the final here, March 18 and 19. . The Broad Ripple High School team won over Ben Davis, 12 to 9, in the first game of the morning session. The Ripple boys started after Ben Davis with a rush that brought them an early lead and they stayed out In front from the first few moments of piay. At half time the winners held a 12-to-5 advantage. This contest was easily the best that has been played In the tournament. Bread Ripple held a 12-to-5 lead at the close of the first half and it looked as though they might step away for an easy victory In the second, but Stamm and Frizee, Ben Davis' best defensive bets, came to the front with soma real opposition and the Ripple clan was held scoreless througnout the period, while Ben Davis piled up four points. It was a great defensive battle and one that the l'ens will not forget in a hurry. Broad Ripple should make Tech hustle to win this afternoon if -the Green and White machine is mnning no belter than it was last night. However, it is expected that the east siders -will come back with fire in their eyes and tear things up in their semi-final encounter. Broad Ripple (12). Ben Davis (9).

Manual bad a comparatively easy time beating the Oaklandon team In the second contest of the morning session, thereby going Into the semi-finals. The final count of this game was 20 to 15. Harold and Emil Harmeson again came to the front as the starlights of the Manual offense In this contest, getting six and four field goals, respectively. In the first half, which ended with the score 14 to 9 In Manual's favor, the Oaklandon boys made things move rather lively, but In the second session the south •lders came back with a lot more class and pulled away to a more comfortable lead. The Manual defense was working fine In this session, Oaklandon breaking through fbr only three field gotls, but the Red and White athletes fooled frequently and Kueer turned nine of his sixteen chances from the free range into points. Summers, Manual back guard, tried to fire orders at Referee Mowe after he had been called for . fouling, and the official waved him off the court. Summers was also thrown out of yesterday’s game with Shortridge for fouling. Manual (26). Oaklandon (15). E Harmeson... Forward Kueer Wertz Forward Hamilton H. Harmeson... .Center F.

West Newton showed plenty of stuff in the third contest this morning to defeat the fast Cumberland quint, 18 to 16, In the toughest scrap of the tournament. The game was nip and tuck from start to finish and at no time was either team capable of running up to a safe lead. With but five minutes to go in the second haff, the Newton team, which had been trailing throughout most of the contest, came up to tie the count at 14-all. Shortly after this they slipped out In front and after that were never headed Cumberland held an 11-to-10 advantage at half time. The Cumberland goal-getters this morning were not shooting with the accuracy they have shown in other games, but this probably was because they ere In too much of a hurry to get out from under the heavy West Newton guard. Stivers was the best point man with the Newton crew, getting two field goals and six fonts. W. Newton (18). Cumberland (10).

In the other contest last night Cumj berland defeated New Augusta, 38 to 20. i The going was rather slow, with Cumberland holding the advantage all the way. In the last game of the Friday afternoon session West Newton defeated Shadeland, 3a to 12. The Green and White athletes of Tech were given a harder fight than they should have taken from the Valley Mills youngster. The locals did not play anything like the brand of ball they are ea’-aiile of and if the county association ' champs had cut loose with their distance shooting early In the first half Instead of i late In the second half they probably 1 would have been easy winners. Tile Tech offense didn’t have an ounce of punch and their defense was nothing like It should be. At the halfway mark the Tech crowd held a 7-to-4 lead. Valley Mills had not tried a long shotjn this period and had not scored from tn* field. After eight mlnutds of the second half were gone the Valley boys started a bombardment from the distance range and showed such accuracy that It seems certain they would have handed the Green anil White a trouncing had they started earlier. The Tech team, when going right. Is nothing short of a wonderful coinbinn tion. but In yesterday’s piay the east aiders were completely off form and looked anything but sectional champs, as they are doped. NIPPER, GRIGGS, REAL STARS. Nipper and Griggs were luat about the whole Tech team In the Valley game. Os course, the Valley boya must be given credit for their game, but we would hate to think of them going Into battle with the Tech team that met Steele High of Dayton or the one that triumphed over Jeffereon of Lafayette recently. And i tbat’e what the Valley boys would have been up against last night If Adkins had not tried In vain to thrill the crowd with his so-ealleld wonderful dribbling and jumped into the paaalng game that Griggs. Nipper and Greensberg were trying so bard to bring to the front. A clever passing game and field accuracy was displayed by the Cumberland team against New Augusta. Cumberland had little opposition In this game and did . not work hard, but they showed just enough to assure any team some r*al oppoaltion. Witte and Hilkene were the big scorer 1 for Cumberland, taking their shots without a bit of bother after the Augusta boys were knocked blind by a neat streak of passing. West Newton grabbed an early lead and ran away from Shadeland In tue last Friday afternoon contest. Stivers and Burke got seven and six field goals, re,spegtlvelv, for the winning combination. Manual eliminated Shortridge from the pennant chase yesterday afternoon when they handed the North Siders a 23 to 12 beating. The game was by far the best of the afternoon session and the Manual boys looked mighty good, excepting that thev were guilty of a lot of fouling. - The teamwork of the south side team I was better than that of any other outfit that won first round contests and when plav opened this morning the fans were i expecting big things of the Red and [ White. Tiger Students Mark Victory Celebration by Classroom Strike GREENCASTLE, Ind.. March B.—De Pauw students 1.000 strong, paraded out of chapel yesterday morning and refused to attend classes for the remainder of the day as a result of the Tiger basj ket-ball victory over Wabash the night before. Clmpel opened with the De Pauw band playing school songs and the various classes cheering for “a holiday.” The usual announcements failed to Include the popular demand. With deep respect and intense silence, however, the students listened to the congratulations of President George R. Grose of De Pauw, who also failed to give the desired liberty. At the close of the benediction, given by Hillary A. Gobin, vice president of De.Pauw, the student body arose In Its wrath and refused to leave Meharry Hall. “How about that holiday?" they yelled. The faculty merely walked out and left the students to themselves. One of the greatest pep meetings of the year -followed. Whan Meharry Hall could no longer hold the zeal of the students tltey formed a line and. headed by the band, auakedanced through the town. A yell-feat was held downtown and in the Bowman gymnasium.

It looks us if we would be in good shape in the pitching department. “Hodge, who came to us from Nashville last July and who worked seven hitless Innings against Detroit on Labor day, should improve.

Milwaukee club. Is another right hander who looks like a real prospect. "The infield stacks up in fine style with gheeley, the Salt Lake slugger, for first base; Eddie Collins at second; Ernie Johnson on short and either Eddie Mulligan from Salt Lake or Hervey McClellan for third base. “I’m not worried over the make-up of the infield, for with Collins at the pivot and three fellows who played last season :at Halt Lake holding down the other j positions, it should be a comparatively | simple matter to soon develop a smooth- | ly working combination. y i “The outfield looks pretty strong witn I Si rank, Collins and Murphy, veterans, and two youngsters of promise in Johnny Mostll and Bob FallC. Texas College star. I know what ‘all these players can do and I believe In them.” Manager Gleason has scratched the playing value and possibilities of the Indicted members of his team off his roster for all time. He will 'miss them, no doubt, for what they were worth as purely mechauieal players, but he is a fighler -ind his dynamite spirit and-his methods of handling men should work wonders with the Rox.

DARIO RESTA IN LINE FORGRIND Daring Italian to Pilot Sunbeam in Dash for Cash l and Glory. Dario Resta one of fthe most- spec- j tacular foreign rate drivers and positively the most successful Invader, has signed to drive In the sensational 500inlle dash for glory and gold over the course of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Monday, May 30. Resta will pilpt a Sunbeam, a British made car. In his Invasion of 1915 and 1916, the famous driver grabbed more than $82,000 in prize money, but success in the Indianapolis event will undoubtedly net him more than the two years' campaign. Rcsta’s share of the winnings in 1915 was' $37,750, but he was closely followed by Gil Anderson of the Stutz team, who was but $750 behind. However, the entire Stutz team in that year dragged down $81,650, almost twice as much as any other racing outfit. Resta was piloting a Peugeot in 1915 and 1916. In hi* first appearance at Indianapolis he was second to De Palma, who won the race lu hia flying Mercedes. Resta won the Chicago 300-mile derby and then annexed the special invitation races at Chicago and at Sheepshead Bay. In 1016 Resta.drove his Peugeot to victory In six of eleven events and In 1,294 miles of driving garnered 544.400 prize money and 4,100 points in the A. A. A. championship, being the first driver to be crowned king of that organization. It wns this year that Rest won the Indianapolis 300-mile race, repeated at Chicago, led the field in a 150-mile event at Omaha, won two subordinate races atChicago and closed hi* successes with a win In the Vanderbilt cup race. Resta is an Italian by birth, but has resided In England so many years that he lias become inoculated with British mannerisms of speech and customs. He
