INDIANS PLAY FIRST CONTEST IN TEXAS CAMP Yannigans Beat Regulars in Big Slugfest—Tribe to Speed Up a Bit. EXHIBITIONS . SOON MARLIN SPRINGS. Texas. March 13. —Hank Schreiber’s “yannigans” Sunday triumphed over regulars led by Covington in the first ball game played between the two teams during the spring training period of the Indianapolis American Association Club which has been bi. this place for one week. The game went nine Innings and was productive of a free hitting and spectacular fielding exhibition In which there were twenty-nine safeties, eighteen of which went to the regulars. The younsters, reinforced by Schreiber at short and Sicking on second and Heine on third handed out a superior brand of defense which offset the terrific hitting of the regulars and the Yannigans finished the game in the lead by a 13 to 11 score. The game began under low hanging clouds, but a bright sun soon made its appearance and permitted the pitchers to let out for the first attempt at fooling the hitters. The hurling staff, however, is far from regular season form and will need another week of intense work to place it in condition to let out. The present week will see a speedingup in the play in every department, and the tweuty-five candidates for places in the Tribe roster are going to stage a hot fight for the jobs. Manager Hendricks is closely watching every move in the

Rogge on Way to Camp; Brown Proving a Star

Pitcher Clint Rogge of the Indians, departed for Marlin, Texas, at noon today, where he will join the Hoosiers in their spring training. This Is earlier than Kogge usually reports in the spring and his decision to get to work at an early date Is taken to mean that he is out to have a big reason on the diamond. The big fellow is slightly overweight, but expects to reduce in quick fashion at the Texas resort. Secretary Clatter of the Indians received a letter from Hayward Smith, assistant secretary, today in which Smith said the playing of Eddie Brown was proving a big feature of the Tribe's workouts. W ording to Smith, Brown v ill make the Indianapolis fans fo.gct Ralph Sh timers, who is maklrg a strong bid for a regular berth with the New York Giants. practice* gesslons, aud with the best prospects in many years for a winning combination, the material at hand is anxious to land a place. There is a com plete double set of outfielders, nine pitchers bidding for places and six infielders, including last season’s cracker-jack inner works, and Attreau, a firstbaseman, and Heine, a Giant recruit, battling for a niche in the infield. With this wealth of material, Hendricks will find the weeding out process a difficult one. Next Saturday the club will Journey to Galveston to play the Texas League club a series of two games, after which the New York Giants will be the opponents. The world's champions are on the schedule for four games, two at San Antonio and two games here at Marlin Springs. Morning and afternoon workouts will be staged each afternoon all week, weather permitting. Eddie Brown still is confined to his room from the attack of cold which prevented him taking part in the game Sunday. The big outfielder is not expected to *be out very long, however.. With the arrival of Bob Kinsella. who came over from San Antonio after a siege with Manager McGraw of the Giants, there are two men for every outfield position. Kinsella is in the pink of condition and looks better than at any stage since he came to the Indians Last spring.

H. A. C. Boxers Win in Two Classes at Gary Amateur Meet Mulholland and Orme Are Victors—Local Club in Second Place. By HEZE CURE. GARY, Ind., March 13.—George M. Pinneo's well balanced Gary Y. M. C. A. boxing team won first honors in the annual Middle States Amateur Athletic Union boxing tournament held here March 9, 10, 11. The final team scores were: Gary Y. M. C. A. 22, Hoosier Ath letic Club of Indianapolis 12. Hawthorne Club of Chicago 9, Boy's Brotherhood Republic of Chicago 9; Culver Military Academy 8, Arcade Gymnasium of Chicago, 5; Great Lakes Naval Training Station 4, Chicago Hebrew Institute 1. The Hoosier A. C. of Indianapolis, coached by Jimmie Dalton, finished second. The Hoosier A. C. athletes won first honors in the closs and the light heavyweight division and got a third place in the 112-pound class and the 147-pound class. The boxing tourney was held under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association of Gary. Eighty-live of the best amateur mit artists of the central States entered the tournament. The big gymnasium was packed to standing room each of the three nights of the tourney. Indianapolis can well be proud of the two athletes who won first places in a boxing tourney in which the best amateurs of this part of the country competed. George Mulholland, a big, rugged athlete, defeated G. Lyons of the Gary “Y," in the final of the 175-pound class. Mulholland was given the decision by the judges at the end of three rounds. The big blonde athlete from Jndianupolis waded into his taller opponent aud battled hit _way to a well-earned victory. There was little to choose between the two men in the opening round, except that Mulholland did the leading. It was in the next two rounds that MulhoUAnd's more -perfect physical condition seemed to tell, and the husky blonde landed rights and lefts to Lyon's face and had all the best of the milling. In the 135 pound division there was more real competition than at most other weights and Eddie Orme of the Hoosier A. C. proved the best among fifteen boxers at that weight. In the semi-finals Saturday night Orme drew a bye. and therefore was forced to box but once that night. lie won his preliminary bout Thursday in one of the best fights of the tourney. Orme, the champion lightweight amateur boxer of Indiana, met J. Mayher of the Hawthorne Club of Chicago in the final bout. Mayher in the semi-finals outboxed Morris Cramer of the Hebrew Institute of Chicago. In the opening round of the OrmeMayher affair the boys were careful and did not open up, evidently playing safety first. Then Orme started things in the second round. A shower of rlgl .s ! and lefts to Mayher's head forced tee j Chicago boy to cover up. In ducking I away from the whirlwind attack of the ; Indianapolis athlete, Mayher fell through the ropes. He was back in the ring a ! second later, but Orme never let up an instant ond Mayher seemed unable to hit ; Orme in return while the stinging 1 punches of the champion forced Mayher to cover up. Mayher failed to answer j the bell at the start of the third round j and it was Orme’s tight. Benson of the H. A. C., won third place In the 147-pound class. G. Higgins of the H. A. C., got third in the 112-pound class.

NEWS AND NOTES OF SECTIONAL PLAY AND COMING H. S. FINALS

Thirty-two teams, each with a dream. Along came the regionals, then there were sixteen. Tho cream of Hoosierdom's high school basket-ball, having gone through the separators at Bloomington and Lafayette Saturday will flow into Indianapolis Friday and Saturday of this week for the purpose of determining the champion of Indiana for the year 1922. Hats off to Jeff. With their team wrecked by ineligibility a couple of weeks before the season ended, the Lafayette crew, with nothing but that old fighting spirit that has made them dangerous in every State tournament ever held, sailed into Frankfort, one of the best in the northern part of Indiana, aud was beaten only by a score of 16 to 14. Picture that team forfeiting a game because atar players were out of the line-up. Manual vs. Bloomington at 1 o'clock Friday. The last time Manual went to ‘ue State tourney it was Bloomington that cut short the title aspirations of the local crew. Let’s get ven Manual. Tech almost heat ’em recently. Franklin has the habit of playing the first and last games of the State tourney. That's what they did last year. They're going to start things off again Friday by meeting Central of Evansville. Will they play the last game Saturday night? Wha’da you say Vincennes V It looks like Goshen klnda got Angola's angora. Manual rode the dark horse splendidly. If they beat Bloomington In the State meet they probably will play Vincennes at 9 o'clock Saturday morning. Maybe Manual's dark horse, too. Here’s the list of State championship holders: 1911— Crawfordsvllle. 1912 Lebanon. 1913 Wingate. 1014 —Wingate. 1915 Thorn town. 1916 Lafayette. 1017 —Lebunon. 1918— Lebanon. 1919 Bloomington, 1920 Franklin. 1921 Franklin. 1922 (?) Several teams hare held the championship two years in succession, but no team has had the distinction of holding It for three consecutive years. Will Franklin break this precedent? A big upset that was unlocked for In the regional* was the defeat of Connersvllle by Central High of Evansville. Connersvllle has been going big all season and with stars like Ridge, Slier and Williams, formerly of Anderson, It must have taken a corking good team to beat them. Although it was only a one-point victory for Evansville, they deserve much credit for every point count. It was generally supposed before the game that Connersvllle would win by a large margin, being runners up In tho Tri-State tourney at Cincinnati. At any rate Manual will have the advantage of having the crowds with her next Friday. Rushville kinds put the Mg smack to Columbus. And to think that some confident acrlbe from Columbus was giving out dope to the

’TWAS ALL WABASH TOURNEY

Pete Vaughan’s ''All-Americans'' made short work of the Kalamazoo College boys in the final contest of the first national intercollegiate basket-ball tourney at the Coliseum Saturday night. The score was 43 to 23, leaving no doubt in the inlnds of the assembled throng that the Little Giants were superior to anything in the meet. When the Junior Chamber of Commerce chose Wabash to represent Indiana the said Junior Chamber of Commerce certainly knew It* stuff. The red-jer-seyrd boys were powerful In all departments The Kunoki li*4 the speed, but the Wabash guard* forced the Michiganders to shoot from eut in the middle, where the percentage far getting baskets was small.

effect that Columbus would meet Franklin In the finals of the State meet. He had the whole State meet doped out. That’s all right, Columbus, stand up for yuor colors. In spite of all the agitation concerning shorter basket-ball schedules for high t.'hools there are several schools already scheduling games for early in November. The schools ndvance the following reasons for their step, namely: Either that there are not enough boys in high school to develop a football team or that there is sentiment against the game In the district. Their points are very well put and In the face of them they can not be blamed, for school life would be rather dull for a bunch of healthy bovs without their basket-ball. There can be agl-1 tation pro and con, but a settlement Is very doubtful. Officials for the State finals meet were announced today. They aro George hells, Ward Lambert, Dale Miller and Kay Mown. The four men will alternate on the games, two working each one. Levis and Lambert will offielate the first game, Lambert and Miller, tile second; Miller and Mowe, tho third, anil Mowe and Levis, the fourth. Storting with the fifth game, the same order will start again and will continue In the same manner throughout the tourney. Bedford waded through Stoney Creek Saturday at Bloomington. The score wus 42 to 7. Summary of Franklin Scottsbnrg game. Field goals—Vandivier 7, Gant 7, Friddle 7. Doesn’t that sound ominous. The Lafayette Regional resembled a horse show In many respects. At least plenty ot dark horses were In evidence. Tho only real upsets at Bloomington were when Itushville rushed Columbus for a 21 to 13 victory and when Central of Evansville was the central figure in a 19 to 18 wlu over Connersvllle. The upper half of the State has only a few entries on which faith Is pinned to bring the championship back to that part of the State and one of these is going to he eliminated when Anderson and Frankfort clash at 7:30 Friday evening. Cutler looked good when It cut through Rochester for a 45-to-ll victory. Tho upstaters have a date w ith the "Alices'' ; or Vincennes at 11 o’clock Friday morn- 1 Ing and the southern Indiana sirens may ; have a harder time than they expect in ■ vamping the conquerors of Rochester. ! Who remembers that old triumvirate, Boone, Montgomery and Tippecanoe counties? llow every State tournament from 1911 to 1919 was simply an attempt to wrest the honors from a team In one of these three counties. Bloomington was the first to break the Ice, winning in 1919 nnd Franklin has won the last two. Southern Indiana has It all over the North this year If season’s scores can he used as a basis of calculations. However, an unknown may enrry the upper half of the State to victory, but, even so, It is a pretty safe bet that it Is not coming from tho old triumvirate. Crawfordsvllle. Lebanon, Wingate, Thorntown nnd Jen erson, the old standard bearers of the triumvirate, and all holders of at least one State champlonshl , are going to be left at home when the party convenes at the Coliseum, Friday anil Saturday.

Game The Omar basket-ball team has completed an all-star line-up for tho second game of its series with tne Junior Chamber of Commerce to be played at Knlghtstown Friday by the addition of Tillio Voss, center or the Detroit University team a few years ago. Previous to the acquisition of Voss, the Omars had signed Moffett and Mendenhall, De Pauw’s two great players of the last two seasons who closed their college careers with the finish of the De Pauw basket schedule. With Voss on the roster the Omars will line 'up with Mendenhall and Stonebraker at forwards, Voss at center and Bacon and Moffett at guards. Voss stands 6 feet and 5 inches and is rated as one of the best all-arotnjd centers ever to play the game.

GIBBONS-GREB BOUT TONIGHT Gotham Picks St. Paul Scrapper at 2 to 1 Odds in Big Fight. By HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, March 13.—Tom Gibson has a good many reasons for wanting to beat Harry Greb tonight in Madison Square Garden. His main purpose is to rid himself of his title as the champion bowler of set-ups. Greb has been among the loudest who pointed at Gibbons’ record of twenty-one knockouts in his last twenty-two fights and yelled “who couldn't?” They were all bums! The Pittsburgh “jumpingjack” is the first one with the public's stamp of class on him who has met The St. Paul clouter since he discovered his right was good for something besides tapping. New Y'ork believes Greb is the first big victim and the money is going down ou Gibbons at 2 to 1. Several inches in height, six or seven pounds in weight and a heftier punch to his advantage are factors boosting tho odds on Gibbons. Eddie Kane, Gibbons’ manager, feels absolutely confident, and he has to do all the talking, as his charge does most of his speech-malting about a champion field dog he is training. “Greb can’t hit hard enough to make a pink mark on his face and Tom’ll put him down the first time he hits him. and it won’t take him long,’’ Kane said today.. George Engel, who handles Greb, naturally, has his own story. He says Gibbons Is made for his boy and that Harry will not have as much trouble as he did against Charley Weinert, when he had do trouble at all. Gibbous ought to bent Greb. The St. Paul boy may not be the hardest hitter in the ring, but he has developed into one of the most accurate body punchers in the business. There isn’t a heavyweight working who can stand many of his short left hooks to the body. He is fast and shifty on the defense and seems to be trained better than Greb.
