Shortridge Has New Basket-Ball Coach —Material for Quintet Just ‘Fair*

PICKS VARSITY SQUAD FROM LIKELY LIST OF EARLY CANDIDA TES Enoch Burton, Former Kendalville Coach, Is New Mentor — Teams Have Been Unsatisfactory In Recent Years. By YEDDER OARD Regular varsity basket-ball practice starts at Shortridge next Monday under the guiding hand of anew coach. The north side institution has been unable to develop a net team in the past few years that the school could be very proud of and the coaches have changed with the seasons. The latest mentor to brave the rigors of an Indianapolis basketball winter is Enoch Burton, who comes to this city from Kendalville, Ind., Burton was at Kendalville in 1920 and a part of 1921 season. He was forced to leave his position at Kendalville last January because of the serious illness of his father.

Although football Is claiming the limelight of Shortridge athletic endeavor at the present time, some attention has been given to basket-ball and the new coach already has a line on some of his prospective material. Four Intra-school teams have played a series of contests which ended Tuesday afternoon. Candidates were divided up Into squads called the Reds, Blues, Greens and Browns. Games were played last week on Monday and Wednesday and the series ended this week with the new mentor knowing something about the material that he wdll have to depend on for the coming season. His opinion of the material is "Pretty fair.” After Tuesday’s contests he selected a number of players for the varsity quad to report Monday. Football players will come out later. A school league wdll be formed to play through the winter and any players showing varsity form will be given a trial. The list of players to start the iniUal practice is as follows: Ferguson, Livingston, Sayce, Guy Dixon, Herbert Dixon, Harrington, Hamlin, Sherman, Huston, Marcus, Christena, Craybill and Brown. A few others will be given a trial. Ferguson was out last year, but broke his collar-bone and was forced out of the game. Dixpn played the latter part of the season and was In the sectionals. Harirngton is a regular from the 1921-22 season. Riley and Kilgore will be conspicuous by their absence. Livingston, Sherman and Christena were all on the scrubs. At present from the available early season dope it does not look as though Burton will have a great deal to work with unless some of the new men develop unexpectedly. There are fifteen dates down on the Blue and White schedule with two or three more contests likely to be booked Three afternoon games will be played at the Shortridge gym and Tech and Manual will be met at Tomlinson IlalL A little innovation will be tried on Jan. 27, when a four-team meet will be held at Browmsburg between Shortridge, Crawfords ville, Plainfield, and Browmsburg.

It has been raining forward passes all over the Buckeye field, and even with the deepening of twilight’s shadows, the ghost ball has been kept flying through space from many angles many formations. fTp Michigan reigns the favorite in approaching battle, but If the truth were known there Is no doubt a lingering fear In the breast of some of Vest's players as they think about Wilce's famous forward pass attack.
