CHAMBER VOTES TO BACK MEET Expense Fund Must Be Raised' However, Before College Event Is Assured. At a meeting of the Junior Chamber cf Commerce Monday night., that organisation voted unanimously in favor of the National Intercollegiate Basket-Ball Tournament which is being planned by & committee in charge, to be held at the Coliseum, State fairground, on March 9, 10. and 11. Floyd Chafee, secretary of the Junior Chamber, brought the jilan before the membership in every detail and the meeting received it enthusiastically. The committee was told to go ahead with the arrangements with the complete approval of the Junior organization. At present the financial problem is the big issue to be taken care of before the toruney can be an assured fact. Approximately SIO,OOO must be guaranteed by business men of the city to assure the expenses of the meet. The committee has ten days in which to raise the funds and It is thought that when the many advantages to this city of having such a national erort event are clearly seen, that the money will be forthcoming.

Young Steelier, Columbus, Ohio, 114 ?ounc!s, vs. Tom Yulonla, Indianapolis, 45 pounds. Billy Trout, Kokomo, ISB pounds, vs. Joe lioUender, New Orleans, 138 pounds, i Jack Reynolds, Indianapolis, 1-11 ! pounds, vs. Johnny Be Bolt, British Columbia, 144 pounds. Blare—Broadway Theater. Time-—8:15 p. in. TVith all the principals in tonight’s wrestling show at tho Broadway Theater reported as in perfect condition for their respective bouts, an excellent program appears to be in store for local followers of the sport. The chief interest in the card hinges on the result of the Jack Reynolds-Johnny Xe Bolt finish match in which the local welterweight is expected to be given a furious tussle by the British Columbian grappler. Although the main go is the big attraction there is more than unusual interest in the preliminaries on tonight's card. Billy Trout of Kokomo is certain to have a tough Job on his hands If he defeats the New Orleans boy who las shown considerable ability in previous shows here. Tom Valonls, the local welterweight, is expected to have a battle with the Columbus (Ohio) opponent. Tipton-Vincennes Game Proposed for This City; Kokomo Contest Friday TIPTON, Ind., Jan. 24—Due to the fact that the Tipton High School basket-ball team has been undefeated so far this season someone has suggested that Tipton and Vincennes arrange a clash to be staged at Indianapolis. Feb. 24. The local scyt!ad has an open date then. Vincennes has been rambling through the ranks of she southern Indiana teams in easy fashion and a Tipton-Vinoennes game probably would prove quite a feature. The board of control of the Ftate High School Athletic Association probably would have to be consulted before such a project could be put through, however, and there is a feeling in many quarters that the State officials would frown on the game. At the present time Tipton followers ere more interested in the clash with the Kokomo quintet at Kokomo, Friday night. In a previous match between the rival teams here, the locals won, 16 to 14. Kokomo sees a big chance of copping the second contest, but Tipton has no: lost any of its confidence and will go over to the game Friday backed by a huge party of rooters.

Barrett Saved Baseball Earnings and Was Rated High in Business World

James (Jimmy) E. Barrett, one of basebail's greatest outfielders of all time, left nt the time of his death, a few weeks ago, an estate of nearly half a million dollars. In the heyday of his diamond career Jimmy Barrett played an outfield position with Sam Crawford and Matty Mclntypre, but was forced to leave the team on account of a turned ankle. That was in 1905, the year Ty Cobb joined the team and filled the position vacated by Barrett. During his years of baseball Barrett, always frugal and saving, accumulated, about $25,000 in cash. He entered the real estate business in Detroit, his home city, and at the time of his death hnd accumulated real estate, bonds and securities that if thrown on the market today would bring approximately $400,000. A week before his death Barrett had been pronounced physically perfect by a prominent physician. On the morning he dropped dead in his office, ho had "chinned” himself on a ladder no less than eighteen times. Ho weighed 185 pounds. He simply pulled the heart out of himself, was the verdict of the Bams physician.

SCHAFER RUNS 349 BILLIARDS World’s Champ and Conti Play Sensationally in Matches Here. Young Jake Schafer, the world's champion 18.2 billiard player, matched with Conti, the’ French cue star, go-ve some remarkable exhibitions at the Board of Trade purlors here yesterday. In the afternoon the young champ made a run of 349 for the best count ever seen here. The match ended 4CO to 324 in favor of the title holder. He ran out in seven innings with an average of 57. Conti was also iu form, averaging more than 42 billiards an inning. Sehafer’s count of 349 was a wonderful exhibition of control. His fii-t 188 billiards were made at the lower end of the table and consisted mostly of short drives to the side rail with now and then a long drive to the upper rail. Conti showed great skill by scoring a count of 104 Like the world's champion, Conti also played the rail and line nurse and displayed a stroke second to none in the world. Ills play in every respect is far greater than any player from a foreign country, ever seen here. In the evening exhibition Monday the fans were treated to two counts of over the double century mark, when Conti in Ms fifth inning made a count of 209, followed in the next inning by a count of 215 by Schafer. Schafer won the evening match, 4<X> to 266. Schafer and Conti will conclude their play in this city with exhibitions this afternoon at the Board of Trade parlors at 3 o’clock and tonight at S o'clock. Technical to Play Shelbyville Squad in New Gymnasium Technical High School will play Its first basket-bail game in the new gym tomorrow night, taking on the strong Shelbyville team in a game that will tax the new-found power of the Green and White squad to the utmost. Ths Eastsiders have been waiting a long time f>r their new gymnasium to be ready for occupancy and at last the big day has arrived. The team has been practicing on the new floor for some time, but the Shelbyvilie contest is the opening match on the court. It ahould proT* a good omen for Tech to be playing on Its own floor, but the opponent selected is one of the strongest in the State. While other teams have been getting much comment the Shelbyville team has been traveling along at a good pace and no less an authority than Coach Wagner of Franklin says that Shelbyville is one of the strong fives of Indiana and must be reckoned with by any team It meeta. Manual Five to Tackle Martinsville on Friday MARTINSVILLE, Jan. 24—The local high school basket-ball team returned from its trip to Indianapolis undismayed by Tech's victory, and is going through strenuous practice to show another Indianapolis high school that Martinsville can still win games. Manual Training High School comes here Friday night for a tlit with the Red and Blue. Fans here are giving Tech's team full credit for an earned victory, and praise especially the courteous treatment afforded them by the Tech management. Coach Curtis is giving more than a little attention to goal shooting, and Manual fans may expect a greater percentage of goals than tha locals showed at Tomlinson Hail last week.
