Manager Hendricks announced today he would take a couple of rookie pitchers south with the squad. They are Charles llixeubaugh, formerly of the Central League, and Young Heinzinan, the Noblesville semi-pro phenom. A youthful catcher named Williamson also will be given a tryout. Hendricks was in Cincinnati yesterday for a conference with lied officials, but they had nothing to offer in the way of talent at present. The Tribe boss has lines out for a heavyhitting catcher and a couple of more pitchers, whom he hopes to hook before the squad goes South. The Tribe roster appears to be all set in the infield and outfield departments, and when the battery is bolstered the team will look mighty formidable.

KAUFF DENIED INJUNCTION. NEW YORK. Jan. 18.—Benay Kauff, suspended Giant outfielder, yesterday was denied by Supreme Court Justice Whitaker an* injunction restraining the National Exhibition Company—the Giant owners—and Judge K. M. Landis from continuing his suspension Irom professional baseball. 1 Justice Whitaker held that there were no grounds for an injunction since Kauff s contract with the Giants expired last October. “While the papers show that an apparent injustice has been done the plaintiff, this ctfurt is' without power to grant the relief he asks,” the decision said. NO PENALTY, SAYS LANDIS. CHICAGO, Jan. 18.-—No penalty will attach to ''lrish" Meusel and Johnny Rawlings playing winter ball in California. Before engaging in the pastime these members of the Giants consulted Judge Landis, commissioner of baseball. The judge gave his consent, after consulting the anti-barnstorming rule which prohibits world series stars from showing outside activity “during* the year in which the championship was- won.” The judge, Secretary Leslie M. O'Conner explained, construed this to mean the calendar year. So the champions can do as they please after Jan. 1. want lewis for month. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 18.—An offer from Jacob Ruppert and T. L. Huston, owners of the New York American baseball club, to pay $23,000 for the services of Duffy Lewis, manager of the Salt Lake team of the Pacific Coast League, until June 1, was received and declined yesterday by T. 11. Lane, president of the Salt Lake Club. Lewiß led the Pacific Coast League in hitting last season, his average being over .400. Formerly he was a major league star with the Red Sox and Yankees. UMPIRE O’DAY TO STAY. NEW YORK, Jan. IS.—President Fleydler of the National League said yesterday that Umpire Hank O’Day, the dean of the National League staff, would not resign this year, as reports bad him doing. O'Day suffered ill-health last summer, and several times was on the verge of hauding in his resignation. A long rest on the Pacific Coast this winter, however, induced Hank to change his mind, and he has notified Heydler to this effect. FLINT CLUB SOLD. FLTNT, Mich., Jan. 18.—The sale of the Flint club of Miohigan-Ontario League to Otto and William Powell of Pittsburgh. Pa., for a reported consideration of $6,400 was anneuuced here Tuesday afternoon. Controlling interest in the club was held by C. T. Maiues. who purchased it recently from T. J.

NEWS OF THE DAY IN

Close Association Crops Out Between Diamond and Grid Three of 1921 Greatest Elevens Coached by Prominent Baseball Men. BY HENRY FARRELL NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Three of the greatest football teams in the country were turned out last season by prominent figure! in the baseball world. Penn State —coached by Hugo Bezdek, former manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Centre —coached by Charlie Moran, National League umpire. Washington and Jefferson —coached by Earl (Greasy) Neale, outfielder for the Cincinnati Reds. Because these three elevens were so prominent in the sportlight, attention was drawn to the rather close association between baseball and football strategy. However, this has been evident, if not so apparent, for years. Major league baseball has for a long time borne a strong intercollegiate football complexion. FOOTBALLERS MAKE GOOD ON DIAMOND. Jim Thorpe, regarded a* the greatest all-around football star ever developed, made good in baseball. He is still in the game and hit over .300 last season in the American Association. Frank Frisch, star infielder of the New York Giants, was a brilliant half back during his college days at Fordham when the same speed that marks his diamond work made him one of the most elusive backs in the East. Howard Berry, one of the greatest backs, developed at Pennsylvania and a star all-around athlete on the track and field, is now a utility outfielder with the Giants. The New York Yarks have signed Kiilinger, the all-American back of the 1921 Penn State team and a third baseman whom Hugo Bezdek brands a sure sensation in the major leagues. The American League champs also have another football product of Bezdek's 1920 eleven, Hinkey Haines, an outfielder. Eddie Collins, star second baseman and captain of the White Sox, was a great quarter back at Columbia. Rip Collins, pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, was a star with the Texas Aggies before the war. Del I’ratt, second baseman of the same club, was an all-Southern back while playing with Alabama, a university which also developed two other stars. Joe Sewell and Riggs Stephenson, who made good with the Cleveland Indians. NEALE GOOD IN OPEN FIELD. “Greasy" Neale earned his nickname because of his great open field running while playing fith West Virginia We_slevan. He had developed into one of the best coaches in the game as proved when his team won a moral victory over California in a no score tie game. Neale may give up baseball of the best coaches in the game as Bezdek did. Jake Stahl, who managed the Boston Red Sox some years back, was a great half back at Illinois and Fred Merkle, former star first baseman for the New York Giants, also won a football letter at Illinois. Jack Coombs played at Colby and Harry Lord was a sfar at Bates Christy Mathewson and “Moose” McCormick starred at Bucknell. Rev. Fisher, former Cincinnati pitcher, made his name at Middlebury and Dave Fultz was an allAmerican back at Brown. Hugo Bezdek never played major league baseball, but he managed the Pirates. He learned his football at Chicago where he was a star tackle. Charlie Moran is not the only umpire actively connected with "big time" football, as Ernie Quigley is one of the most competent referees in the West.

STANDING OF THE TEAMS. Won. Lost. Pot. Pair-o-Dlce 8 0 1.000 Den Zare 5 3 .626 Du-Art 2 6 .250 81-Fo Re 1 7 .125 The Den Zare-81-Fo Re game in tho Federated Basket ball League last night, at the Y. M. C. A. furnished the best entertainment the fraternity loop fans have bad In many a moon. The Den Zares won, 21 to 19, but they had a battle on their hands all the way, being on the short end of a 12-to-7 count at the half and only tying up the score and nosing out the Railroaders iu the last minutes of play. A slightly changed line-up for the Bi-Fo-Re looked good, especially Ernsting at back guard, who baffled the fast Den Zare forwards time and again. The Pair o-Dice Du-Art fracas was also more interesting than the score would indicate, the losers putting up one of the best games against the league leaders that has been witnessed this season. The I'air-o-Dlcers won, 41 to 2t, Hank Stevens and Johnny Hennessey piling up points galore, Hank getting nine foul goals out of eleven chances.

I. U. Athletes Cut One Year of Varsity Play BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Jan. 18.—As a result of formal protest to representatives of the Western Conference, four Indiana University athletes, all having sophomore standing, will have one year of varsity competition denied them. The men are Bahr, a basket-ball star; Eberhardt, a basket-ball and football man, and Burke and Clay, who played on the gridiron team last fall. These men played on an Indiana It. O. T. C. football team in 1920 against the Culver Military Academy. The men were playing their freshmen year. A. A. U. Wrestling Meet Wrestlers from several universities, colleges and Y\ M. C. A. organizations in the State will compete for the Indiana A. A. A. U. wrestling titles on Feb. 3 and 4, at Indiana University, Paul It. Jordan, head of the State A. A.

Purdue, Indiana, Notre Dame and De Pauw wrestlers already have entered for the meet and it expected that more entries from other universities and colleges will be received.

BY CULLEN CAIN, Written for Phidelphia Public Ledger und Indiana Daily Times. PHILADELPHIA, Jan 18.—They held a boxing show, hereabouts, the other night, and the papers the next morning told who held forth in the ring and who appeared to have the advantage, but to my mind there are other notable features about such a show besides the announcement of the winners and how they won. Nearly 7,000 people were gathered around the ring when the first set of boxers made their appearance and the announcer crawled through the ropes. Not more than one in three of these were regular and well-informed ring follows. Two-thirds of this crowd was composed of average citizens. You will find them at ball games in the summer and at theaters in the winter. A popular symphony concert will draw many of them, just as well as a boxing show Average citizens these, well dressed, well behaved, hard working; lovers of action as au anodyne for the routine and toil anti worry of the living of this Hie. And the scene might well inspire the average citizen. The ring looked vary small in the center of that spacious and lofty arena. Several thousand seats filled the level space about tbe ring and thousands of seats rose in tiers to the roof. Just before the call of time the amphitheatre is thrown Into semi-darkness and the ring la Hooded vtth light.

Dave b'hade, California welterweight, and one of the three fighting Bhade brothers, hag been matched to meet Jack Britton In w York, Jan. 31, for the world’s title. Shade was practically an uuknown until he went to Australia, where he "cleaned" up everything in sight Shade is managed by his father. This picture was taken at his training quarters.

NEWS AND NOTES OF COLLEGE AND HIGH SCHOOL BASKET - BALL

Shortridge meets Crawfordsville at the north side gym tonight aud it appears almost certain that the local lads will lose another game. The material at Shortridge does not seem to lie of the best ami so no one can lie blamed to any great extent for the failure of the live it is a "lean" year, that's ail. Some of the players are willing enough aud give their best, but they do not have the size to compete with some of the other schools’ players. There is one tiling that any disinterested person witnessing a local high school play basket ball must be impressed with. No matter how many games the team has lost before and no matter how far the team is behind in any particular contest, the cheering keeps up unabated. Shortridge, hopelessly outclassed by Lebanon last week, received the plaudits of its followers throughout the game. Tech In its game with Louisviln Manual had an audience of about 2.UW Techites who yelled with fervor ant abandon as if the victory was only one of many, instead of the second all season. Speaking of basket-ball games this city is full of them. Almost every night in the week there's a net contest that is reallv worth while. To the basket-ball fan life is Just one game after another. There's no time to get caught up on the dope. Some net teams are quints and soni* are quinces. It seems that the teams balling from other States belong lu the lutter class. Borne of the college teams would do well to emulate the example of the better high school net squads that endeavor conscientiously to play the game clean. What good is accomplished by deliberate fouling is hard to figure out. A team with a good free thrower makes a rough team pay dearly. Squads that play Purdue University are forced to watch their step or hand the Boilermakers many points. White is very seldom off form from fifteen foot line. Purdue always shows tlie way by the very cleanest of competition. Both Iloosler Big Ten fives are In action this week-end. Indiana travels to Columbus Friday to meet Ohio State It should !>e a close game with the Buckeyes holding the slight edge. Purdue will be forced to recall unpleasant memories of last season's defeat in its trip to lowa City Saturday to tangle with the Hawkeyes. Technical will meet a worthy foe Friday night in Martinsville at Tomlinson Hall. The opponents of the Green and White have been playing great ball, al though Franklin was too tough a nut to crack with Vandivler traveling at top speed. Centre-will be the center of attraction Saturday night at another Tomlinson Ilall game with Butler on the reception committee. The Colonels are reported to have a fast team, but the question is, arc they fast enough for the Irvington speed boys ? Speaking of world’s records, a story from Vincennes has any basket-ball record ever known backed off the boards. Wampler, forward on the Vincennes High School five, it is said, set a mark of 49 straight free throws in the earlier part of the season. According to reports, he missed his fiftieth free throw in the Bloomington contest about two weeks ago after counting twelve times from the fifteen-foot line in that contest. Dartmouth defeated Knox, 25 to 17, in this East last night und reports state that the Eastern team's forward, Cullen,

NO SPORTING CONTEST EQUALS BOXING IN THRILLS COMBINED WITH HUMAN INTEREST APPEAL

Then appear two young men beneath this radiance, naked except for a strip of green silk about their loins, and undertake to annihilate each other. No other stage can offer such a thrill and it is a pretty thing to see. These boys have been trained for weeks. Their white bodies flash in and out with amazing speed and skill. They attack with fierce intensity and yet duck and block with coolness. They assail each other mightily and yet they smile when a blow gets home. CLEVER BOXERS FURNISH THRILLS. Brutal? Not a bit of It. A competent referee will stop a one-sided bout. A competent workman will put his adversary away with a blow and there will be no mark or bad effects afterward. No spectacle can even compete with the ring for color, tenseness, excitement, thrills and action when two elever boys oppose each other Inside the ropes. After all is said and done, thirty centuries of culture and civilization have not abated one jot or tittle the fascination that feats of skill, strength and courage have for the children of men. And when the last word is said the boxing ring is the hardest test of all. Every movement, gesture and flourish there must be the concentrated, boiled-down essence of possible human endeavor. Funny thing about a boxing tan. And there are *nauy types of him. Re ye not

As the score was 25. unless there was an error in the number of fouls, at least another free throw must have been made, if the Dartmouth team can lake n great t!’.ii of satisfaction In this victory It is surely welcome to it. According to the account two field goals were all that could have be*n made, If that Is Eastern basket-ball the Western variety is preferred in these parls. On Monday night, at Wtlliamstown, Mass., Knox defeated the Williams College five 33 to 31. Albro, Knox forward, won the game by shooting two long baskets in the closing minutes of the contest. Williams led at half time, 19 to 15, but Albro's spectacular work turned the tide In *avor of the Westerners toward the finish. If is getting to boa habit down at CrawforiTsvl'le to come hack in the last period anti win by a lone point. The Scarlet had better wat-h its step. Sometime thp needed point to win won't tie forthcoming. Also, these last second finishes arc rather strenuous on the hearts of the Scarlet rooters.

A hardi boiled, loud-voiced fan who sat near me ; the other night was a violent Whitey i Fitzgerald partisan, and during Whitey's debate with Joe Koons this emotional gent kept yelling that Koons was “yellow.” Now, I can never stand for that false and thoughtless charge from it ringside fan against the hard-pressed boy In j the ring. I have yet to see a “yellow” gloveman. So I leaned over and touched the violent one on the shoulder and said “If he was yellow he would not be there.’ 1 The man glared at me for a moment, then he turned and looked at the comDatants. Fitzgerald charged like a wild bull of Goshen. He swung his arms like flails and ripped and pounded at his slender opponent. Koons took it all and fought back. He shook and bent, but be straightened up again after the cyclone had passed over him. The man turned back to me and his fierce face softened. He put out his paw. “You're right,’’ he said; “a boy who is really yellow wouldn’t be in that ring. I'll try never to use that word again.’’ You never can tell about a fight fan.

De Pauw Track and Baseball Men Get in Early Practice Walker to Work With Big Squad of Pitchers—Good Track Material. GREENCASTLE, Ind., Jan. 18.—De Pauw candidates for thee Tiger track and baseball squads have begun practice in preparation for the coming seasons. Tentative schedules for the two sports have been announced by Coaches Merriam and Walker. ..Although this is Ned Merrlam’s first season at De Pauw, he has a wonderful record to work on. During the eight years that he directed the thinly clads of lowa University at Ames. lowa, ue made a name for himself as a track mentor. Coach Merriam says there is good material at De Pauw, but it needs to be developed. Under the direction of Captain Haase several of the cinder artists have been working out on the roads, but they are greatly handicapped by the lack of a track. The new course on Blackstock athletic field will be dedt’a'ed May 27 when the State track meet is held here. Candidates for diamond positions, especially pitchers, have been holding occasional practices in the gymnasium for the last two weeks. They expect to begin work In earnest following final examinations this week. Coach Walker intends to overcome the shortage of moundsmen which has handicapped Tiger baseball nines for the last two years. Coach Merriam has announced the following track schedule: Feb. 1& Michigan Aggies st East Lansing. March 4 Illinois Relays at Urban*, 111. April 22—Earlham at Richmond. April 29 —Drako Relays at Des Moines, lowa. May 7—Wabash, here. May 13—Notre Dame at South Bend. May 20 —Indiana, here. May 27—State meet, here. June 2 and 3—Western Conference meet at lowa City.

Considering the fact that this is final examination week nt De Pauw, that the Tiger quintette Just returned from a strenuous trip, and that Centre appears here Friday night, this may bo Judged a very busy week In the Old Gold camp. Perhaps it Is Jimt as well that Franklin r.uthoritlea canceled the game they contracted to play here Saturday night. Members of the Tiger net squad are in excellent physical condition following their trip and expect to be In tip top shape for the Centre quintette. Among the baskets* rs from the Kentucky school who will face the Tigers are Red Roberts and Snoddy of Nation-wide football fame. Although Centre's basket-ball strength is uncertain, De Panw followers expect a Tiger victory. Centre will meet Butler at Indianapolis Saturday night.

ied for Just this kind of milling. I do not holrl It against Whitey. He has a right to battle to his best advantage, just as a tall, slender, fast footed, clever fellow bas the right to jab and back away. Often the best match of the evening Is the one between the rugged and willing boy and the clever boxer. Every fan to his notion. A thinchested, meek-looklng fan veil yell, ‘Kill him, Whitey!” and a big, savagelooking ringsider will shout, “Give him a boxing lesson, Jimmy I” You never can tell. Every man has some peculiar notions of his own and they usually come out pell-mell at a boxing show. At this fistic show a raw-boned boy whom they announced as l’at Deeuey fought in one of the preliminaries. There was nothing remarkable about Pat except his vivid green tranks and his proclivity for stopping all the loose and flying lists in the ring with some vital portion of his anatomy. And yet, somehow, he attracted me. He tried his best at all times. Once in a while he showed a flash of boxing skill. Just another one of the many boys who start each year on that rough and rugged road that leads to fistic fame. All he has to do in order to be a champion Is to strangle the lions he meets in his path, and batter down the stone walls and catch the lightniug flashes by the tail and withstand the tornadoes that blow mountains down upon him. Finally I found out what it waa about Pat that made him dlfleraat from the av-

erage boy breaking Into the ring game. It was the earnest, eager, active little man with spectacles who fanned and coached Pat between the rounds. It was the expression on Pat’s face and upon that of the little man when they looked at each other. Who was the little man? I asked another one of Pat's seconds. He was his father! Os course. That subtle, wonderful, wordless expression that said so much. Father and son I They can never hide their real feelings behind any mask. Prize ring, store, street, shop or open field, there Is a regard in their glances that is different from all the other associations of mankind. PAT BR. MANAGES SCRAPPER, PAT JR. Pat. Deeney, Sr., is the only boxing manager I know of who has his son under his wing. But Pat, Jr., is none the worse served for that. The father w s Spartan calm under the storm of blows that raged in that ring. He waved the fan while another second doctored his boy’s features with a sponge, lie lea led over and coached the boy coolly and cannily, and then he crouched by the ring and gazed intently at the fray. 1 studied that thin, eager, spectacled face. It was impassive, yet a look ho could not hide was there. Pat, Jr., lost the battle, but at that Pat. Sr., had nothing to be ashamed of in his boy.

German Cueist

Erik Hangenlacher. the German billiard champion, who is credited with a run of 768 at 18.2 balkline, is now in America. He comes with the intention of meeting some of our foremost stars and contends that he will bold bis own.

i browed, round-shouldered. heavily ! muscled, tireless, powerful and indestructible, is opposed to a spare-built, lithe and Umber lad named Joe Miller, who came clear from California to perform. Here are contrasting types and they furnish Just that alluring picture of ring battle 1 tried to tell about a while ago. Always liprrell bores In, sweeping a slow but annihilating glove, and always Miller dances In and out and shifts and lunges and stabs at his terrible foe. The thrill edmes when the bear corners the cougar and tries to crush him, or when the boxer stabs the fighter and gets away. Every second of those eight rounds Miller must depend upon his speed and cleverness to save him from annihilation. His best blows have not the least effect upon that iron face and brassbound body. His own body withers under Borrell’s blows. But for twentyfour minutes of battling within the narrow confiues of that ring the boxer stings the fighter a hundred times und manages to evade destruction. And, mind you, they are not great ring men in any sense of the word. Just average boys who have battled their way up to the wind-tip position on an average boxing card. The experts might call them “Ham fighters,” but to the average man their exhibition gives a final flourish to an evening of thrills. Either one of them pitted against a giant minus their training and experience would destroy him In seventy seconds by a perfectly adjusted Swiss jratch.—Copyright. 1922, by Dublin Led* A Company.
