BLOOMINGTON, Ind., March 11.—In the first two fames of the morning lu the southern regional high school basket-hall meet being held at the Men's Gynaslum at Indiana University the strong Bedford and Franklin squads let loose their dynamite attack against Stoney Creek and Scottsburg and burled the fives under top-heavy scores. The contests came out as was expected. Bedford defeated Stoney Creek, 42 to 7, and Franklin won from Scottsburg, 51 to 8. The crowd came early with the expectation of seeing some of the best fives in the State in action. Special interest was shown In the comparison of the Franklin and Vincennes teams, which followed each other on the morning card. The great record of the far south team has made it the center of all eyes, and when it came on the floor at 11 o'clock to meet the Newcastle club, it received a great ovation. Coach Adams was right back home, as he is an Indiana University man. The best game of tbe morning was between Vincennes and Newcastle and resulted in a victory for the former, 2s to 8. A feature of this contest was the superb “ALICES" SHOW FORM. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., March 11.— In the last game of the morning, Yincinnea defeated Newcastle by a 28 to 8 score. The Southern team smothered the offense of the losers, who were forced to shoot hurriedly in an effort to count. passing and clever teamwork of the tossers from the “old post." A large crowd of Indianapolis rooters was on hand to ‘see Manual, the Indianapolis entry, tackle tbe Pittsboro teamdark htrse from the Martinsville district. The Bed and White rooters were there with plenty of noise and livened things up considerably. Confidence was in the tlr around the Indianapolis camp, but the team expected a hard fight from the conquerors of the Artesian City squad. Outside of the Manual contest this afternoon Interest centered on the Colura-hus-Rnshville tilt that was doped to be 8 thriller from whistle to whistle. All of Bloomington Is vitally concerned in the last game of the evening when Bloomington High School meets Greencastle. Bedford won the opening game of the Bloomington regional tourney today defeating Stoney Creek, 42 to 7. Bedford players were several Inches taller, so encountered little difficulty, scoring at random. The score at the end of the first half was 22 to 4. At no time in the contest was Stoney Creek in a position to do any damage, the Bedford team running up more than a dozen points before Stoney Creek counted a marker. Dye and Bentzel for Bedford did most of the scoring, with McMillan helping with guard work. The placing of Oren for Stoney Creek stood out.' The diminntive forward was every- j where, passing and shooting. Summary:; Bedford (42).

Getting away to the start with a tenpoint lead, Franklin ran true to dope and snowed Scottsburg under, 51 to 6 in the second came of the day at the Bloomington regionals. The seore at the end of the first period was 2S to 5. The scoring of Franklin was distributed throughout the game, the Blue netmen dropping the ball through the ring with regularity. The floor work and basket shooting of the combination, Friddle, Vandiver and Gant, worked like a machine and completely bewildered the Scottsburg boys. Friddle. Vandiver and Gant divided honors for high points, each annexing seven field goals, with Ballard next at two field goals. Lack of ability to hit for free throws cost the Franklin team a few points.

Monday night’s boxing show, to be staged by the American Legion in Tomlinson Hail, for the benefit of the legion's service bureau, will offer Indianapolis boxing enthusiasts the best fistic program that has been seen here since the revival of the boxing sport. All indications point to a packed house, as the sport-loving public is responding heartily to the Legion’s efforts to stage an all-star entertainment. Not since the days of Jack Dillon’s greatness havs real championship contenders been seen In action in a local ring. However, in Downey and Carbone, the fans will get an opportunity to see a real battle between two leading aspirants for Johnny Wilson’s cherished crown. Downey is regarded in some Quarters as the real middleweight champion by virtue of having knocked out Wilson in Cleveland last fall. Asa result of that battle, the Cleveland boxing commission acclaimed Downey as champion, reversing the referee's decision. When the pair met later at Jersey City, Wilson's work was so poor that Promoter Rickard held up hi.; money, for a long period. Crtr'.oii”. the Italian “Iron Man" of New York, is almost as highly rated ns Downey. His record shows decisive victories over every prominent middleweight in the country outside of Downey, and in their two meetings, both men have fought like tigers without a decision. When these fistic stars get together next Monday night In the ten-round main event of the legion show, a great exhibition can be expected. Both men are the rnshing, slugging type of boxer and a victory for either by the knock-out route

REYNOLDS AND DOCTOR DRAW MARTINSVILLE, Ind. March 11 - Tommy Doctor, Colorado welterweight, last night sprang a surprise when he field Jack Reynolds of Indianapolis to a two hour and five minute draw here. It was a good match, full of action at every stage and neither wrestler gained the slightest edge during the two hours. Both Doctor and Reynolds displayed perfect defensive work, each of them bringing the crowd to its feet time and lime again when he broke some hold that appeared to be the turning point for a fail. The bout was called at the end of the two hours and five minutes of wrestling,

is not •unlikely. In the eight-round s?mi-wind-up, Jimmy Dalton, pride of the local Italian colony, faces a big tost in tackling Soldier Elliott of Culver.

Another Indianapolis lad, Bobby Bridges, will meet a dangerous rival in Billy Daujknn of Kokomo, in the second six-round ' bout.

Daulton, his opponent ,is a veteran with several years' experience who has proved a shambling block to many aspiring welterweights in the State. Even Bobby's staunchest admirers concede that he is taking a hard customer, who will make him work his hardest to win. The opening bout, which was advanced from four rounds to six as a tribute to the high class of the boxers, will bring together Maxie Epstein and Jack Terry, both of this city. The Indianapolis Ghetto is behind the little Hebrew to a man, and already has visions of seeing Maxie in the front rank of the bantamweight division. Terrs' has had more than sev-enty-five ring encounters in his brief career, and is one of the best boys that Epstein has ever opposed. They will meet at 118 pounds, and fans who do not arrive in time for the opening bout will miss one of the fastest events on the card. All the boxers are said to be In the pink of condition.

GIBBONS FACES GREB MONDAY Great Light Heavies Close Training for Feature N. Y. Match. NEW YORK, March 11.—Tom Gibbon* and Harry Greb today went through their last and hardest workout for their battle at Madison Square Garden Monday night. Harry appeared in perfect condition. Fans, eager to see the Fittsburgh battler at work at Philadelphia Jack O’Brien's gym, gathered early and when Greb was announced- they gave him a noisy welcome. He started off with a rope-jumping exhibition that would make any school girl jealous. The sand bug held his undivided attention for the next five minutes. Sparring practice was next on his program and I’at McCarty of Boston, was the first victim. They stepped around at a fast gait for the three rounds, with Greb everywhere in the ring except where l’at thought he should ho. A1 Rogers went in tor the next three stanzas and gave him the toughest work-out of the day. The last three rounds Kid Carton was on the receiving end tuoSI of the time. Greb finished strong, and the nine rounds of fast going did not seem to wind him. The Commonwealth Club had its share of devotees to watch Gibbons. Torn doesn't believe in road work, but took a brisk walk in Central I’ark to start the day off right. He went through the usual work-out. left-jal>bing his way through nine fast rounds with Sailor Martin, Jack Montgomery and Young Hickey. The Sailor stayed In close. This seemed to please Gibbons, for he rained a continual one-two to face and body. The other two then tried to fight him from a distance, but did not make much of a success of it. 31ike Gibbons, the Gopher State ghost, will not work In brother Tom s oerner Monday night when Tern faces Harry Greb. Eddie Kano, manager of Tom, has a good reason for Michael’s absence. "Tom fights In his own way,” says Eddie. tie has had enough experience to know what he is doing. There Is notniug that any one can tell him after the tattle starts that would be of any great value to him. "Mike and Torn have different style# of fighting—different fighting brains—when the action begins. There may be a general resemblance In their sytla of boxing, but Tom learned much of what he knows from Mike, but Tom fights quite differently. "Os course. Mike would he Intensely Interested In Tom’s success, but his advice might be confusing. I have rarely seen j eetive fighters who made good seconds, ‘ i specially good fighters. The trouble Is j tle-v think the man they ere working j with ought to be able to do everything they can do when they are in action."

WABASH MEETS KALAMAZOO IN TOURNEY FINAL Two Teams That Have Shown Best Form Clash in Title Tilt. AT COLISEUM TONIGHT The College Tourney TONIGHT. 8 o’clock—Wabash vs. Kalamazoo College (national intercollegiate finals). FRIDAY RESULTS. Wabash, 62; Mercer, 23. Kalamazoo. 22; Grove City, 13. THURSDAY RESULTS. Wabash, 39; Illinois Wesleyan, 16. Kalamazoo, 38; Idaho, 32. The final round of the first annual collegiate basKet-bali tourney will see Wai bash and Kalamazoo tonight in a game ; 1 hat promises to bo hot and fast from | start to finish. Wabash has the advahI tags of weight on the Kazooks, but this j should not cut much figure with a team |as fast as the Northerners. Both teams J ;*>jve oodles of speed and will use it. I the title affair will be staged at 8 I o'clock in the Coliseum at the State I'airt ground. Mercer and Grove City were eliminated last night in the semi-final round of the collegiate tourney. Wabash took Mercer into camp by the lopsided score of 62 to 23, and Kalamazoo outshot the Grove City aggregation for a 22-to-13 victory. The first game Friday evening was a complete rout for the Mercer team which was decidedly out of its class when it met W abash. The game sturted fairly fast, but it did not take the Little Giants of Hoosierdom long to find their j stride and incidentally the basket. After | the first stringers hud run lip a top- ! heavy score the subs were given a chance in the closing minutes of the half and did not have much difficulty in keeping the Georgians at bay. The score at half Seats for Kazoo-Wabash! TUe Junior Chamber of Cos miner re luis arranged for several thousand seats to be put on sale at SLIO and 55 cent* to accommodate the large crowd of fans that la expected at the Wabash-Kalamazoo game at tlio Coliseum. State fairground, tonight to decide tiie National college tourney championship. time was 38 to 6. Wabash's first stringers re-entered the game at the start of the second half and fzora that t.ine on j tlio Wabash line up was sinlTea so often that a combination hardly had time to ! get warmed up to its full capacity before it was changed. Wabash made a majority of its shots on tip ins troin under the basket. At the : start of ihe second half Mercer penetrated the Scarlet defense a little more frequently, but their offense soon weak- : eneii and Wabash scored at will. Wabash by virtue of its easy wins over Mercer and Illinois Wesleyan, is doped as tour- | my winner over the Kalamazoo team. The second game Friday evening was by far the most interesting of tho eve- i niiig's entertainment. Grove City and Kalamazoo were almost evenly matched when it came to speed, but the Kazooks had it on their opponents in the scoring end of the game. The losers shot many times from past the foul line, nearly al- ! ways hitting the rim of the basket, but in the whole game only counting two j field markers. The gams was fast from the outset, ! both teams pulling off some clever pass- J ing and defensive play. The Kalamazoo 1 defense forced the Pennsylvania* to use the tong shot game, which was far from effective. The Northerners had a harder time penetrating Grove City's de- ! tense than they had in getting through Idaho- Thursday night. The bail was passed up and down the floor continually, 1 going back and forth several times before the referee's whistle stopped the game. Foster's work for Grove City at the foul line kept them in the running. The first half ended 12 to 5 in the Kazooks' favor. Grove City started fast in the second half and several times worked through the Kaxook d<f>-nso f but the lack of a man with a basket eye was woefully ap- j parent. Kalamazoo by dint of had fight- i ing and excellent basket shooting grad- i ualiy pulled away from the Easterners; the ( only two field markers made by the los- 1 cr-t came in this half. Spurgeon and j Makay were stars for tho Kazooks, while I'oster was the losers' best man. Had the losers Lad a fair point getter (hero Is not much doubt that they would have forced the Kazooks to greater effort. The Mercer team had a gyreat many chances to score from the foul line, but evidently they don’t believe in making every point count as do the Indiana teams. The Wabash mascot is always given ] a chance to cage one from the field when : the teani comes out on the floor. Thurs- j day night ho made it and Friday night lie didn't, but it didn't seem to affect Wabash's chances any. Speaking of names, how’s this? Canine was substituted for A. Fox on the Idaho team Thursday night. However, we ll take the Wabash "feline" for ours, Mr. “Cut” Adam. Tt will be speed vs. speed tonight when Wabash and Kalamazoo meet, and they sure ought to scorch that floor. The size of the floor at the Coliseum handicapped the Wabash team somewhat j Thursday night, but they seemed to be used to tt Friday. They are accustomed to playing on a large arena.

INDIANS START TUNING UP FOR DIXIE BATTLES Hendricks Begins Preparing Squad for Games With Galveston Next Week-end. PURCELL SHOWING FORM I MARLIN, Texas, March 11.—One week from today, Manager Jack Hendricks will trot his ball team out for the first exhibition game of, the year, when the Indians stack up against the Galveston (Texas League) team at the latteTs bail park for a series of two games, Saturday and Sunday. The Tribe has been in training one week and will have another to get in the finishing licks for the initial contest by which time it is believed the entire aggregation will find itself capable of going at top speed. The pitching staff will be the only worry Hendricks will have for the games at Galveston, that is if bo has any worries it will likely ba with his twirlers. -As yet there is no cause for alarm, however, as the Indians’ pitchers are coming around nicely and have taken the process slowly with a result that no painfully sore arms have developed and all twirlers are ready and anxious to step on the speed button now. Competition for places in the Indians’ outfield will be a bit keener with the arrival of Bob Kinsella, from the New York Giants, today, in company with Heinie, the St. Boneventure College third baseman, and Jim Clancy, southpaw pitcher from Swarthmore College, who also came to the Indians from the Giants’ San Antonio camp. Kinsella, who played with the Indians last season, makes the sixth outfield candidate in camp. The pitching corps also resembles a small army with Clancy, present, Hendricks now having nine boxmen on his hands, including Petty,( Cavet, Weaver, Baftlett, Hill, Rogge, Seib and Wade. The number of players in the Indians’ camp now is twenty-one with Yerkes, Rogge, Cavet and Krueger still to report. Sunday the regulars and Yannigans will stage a nine-innining frolic for the benefit of the Marlin fans. Following Sunday s game it is likely that Manager Hendricks will divide the squad each day and stage a battle among the Indians themselves. The Regular-Yannigan games will serva to get the club in shape for the encounter with Galveston and the New York Giants, who will be piayed immediately utter the Galveston games, meeting McGraw’s world champions for four contests, two at San Antonio and two games at Marlin Springs. Carman Hill should lend a big hand to the winning of games this season. The big ri Hit-handed pitcher and former mernb r of the Pittsburgh Nationals has not b en himself for two years owing to physical disabilities, but he is in grand shape’ his spring and believes he is du* for a winning' year. The Tribe pitching outlook therefore takes on a rosy hue. * Friday Manager HeDdrioks divided t *# squad Into two teams with Tex Covington as captain of one and Walter Kebg leading another. Covington's club walloped the ball for a 5-1 victory and xvaa given a five-spot for the efforts. Tb game originally started out as a fourinning contest, but went six frames. Purcell and Tex Covington hit homers. Doug Baird, xvho lead the Association in stolen bases last season, began right off the real and pilfered third base in the comic affair Friday afternoon. He took the base standing up. I.eo Dixon donned a uniform for the first time Friday and worked out both morning and afternoon. Dixon has been Under the weather and it was his first trip to the park for business purposes. He has fully recovered from the fin and expects to begin training with plenty of vigor to catch up with bis teammates who have a week's advantage in workouts. You would never think the Indians' Infield had been off the diamond through the winter. The inner works gffariiiaus are at it with a world of pepper, and are shooting the ball across the diamond In great shape. Sicking pulled one of his famous one-handed stops and throws Friday afternoon during the burlesque game. The same old combination of Sehreiber-to-Sieking-to Covington is ready to rare and Doug Baird i* right with them. Harry Purcell, Central League recruit, who is'trying for a place in the Indians outfield, has topped the fences here witn long drives with a great deal of persistency whieh gradually is attracting notice. What the Central League recruit will do with curve ball hurling and the fast one with a hop to them, remains to be seen, but a ball player who hits ’em far and often, even though against early pitching, carries some indications and hope. I'iireell appears to be a fast man. In addition to bis dubbing ability. He reported at Marlin Springs as brown ns a Mexican, having been in Florida *.• lifeguard all winter. Purcell hits fro® the left side of the plate and also is a fork-handed thrower.
