Martinsville Basket-ball Team Should be Feared by Other State Quintets

MS 15 LINING UP GREEN MATERJALRAPIILY Have Hard Schedule Ahead — New Gym Being Constructed —One Regular Left. By 11EZE CLARK MARTINSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 21. Few high school basket-ball teams are more feared this year by their opponente than Martinsville. The Martinsville high school has in past years been represented by some of thè fastest and strongest quintets developed at any prep school in thè States. Time and again Martinsville has reached thè State basket-ball championship tourney only to be stopped by a margin of a few points when meeting some of thè best te&ms in thè tourney. This year thè Martinsville basketball fans believe thè school will have a team that will prove stronger than any ever turned out before. It le Glenn Curtls’ fourth year as coach at Martinsville. He was formerly one of thè best backet-ball players at Indiana State Normal. Coach Curtis knows championship teams are not made in one season. He has started a System of developing thè “kid” athletes in thè lower grades into basket-ball players. rie has taught them thè art of shootlng for thè basket, of guardlng an opponent in a clean way so tha* no foul will be made. He has carefuily watched and kept record of thè physical condition of every boy In Martlnsvilie High School. He knows and keeps a record of thè weights of bas-ket-ball players. Nothing tells mote certainly thè physical condition of an athlete than thè way in which bis weight varies each day. Coach Curtis knows this and he is developing* a team that will be in shape for each and every one of thè nineteen games on thè schedule. Martinsville has one of thè best high school gyms in thè State when a playing floor is considered, but thè limited seating capacity ha made iiecessary a new gymnasium, an ì this ls being buìlt. While Capt. F. Bain. back guard, is thè only regular of thè team this year, Coach Curtis does not lack material from which to build a championship quintet. Two good centers are included in thè squad. Hugh Brown and Bill Smith are thè rivals for thè pivot position. Smith is a freshman. Both have thè height and speed and both are rcanirkable goal getters. Four forwards have thè class to make good on thè first Martinsville team. Reginald Cox, William Rowland, R. Schnaiter and Frank Jerrod are thè forwards. Jerrol is six feet one inch. He formerly play ed at Paragon. He is a flash on thè floor and it will take a clever, speedy guard u* keep him covered. Captain Bain. known as one of thè best prep school guarda In thè State, is playing a better game than last year. Bain weighs 162 pounds. T'vo boys are rivals for thè floor guard job. Hai Asher and Warren Schnaiter are both strong defensive men and cover thè floor like a flash. Berril Wrlght, a former Crawfordsville high school player, is aster a guard position Martinsville has one of thè hardest schedules in its history. The schedule follows: Nov. 3, Dan ville at Martinsville; Nov. 10, Shelbyville at Shelbyvllle (this game marks thè opening of thè new Shelbyville gymnasium); Nov. li Greencastle at Martinsville; Nov. 2-, Columbus at Columbus: Nov. 29, Bloomington at Bloomington; Dee. 2, l'edford at Martinsville; Dee. 8.

THE NEW NET RULES The discussion was at its height in thè meeting of thè Indiana board of basket-ball officiai and high 6chool coaches Thursday evening. The new rules were being pteked to pieces and dissected. A disputed point carne up. “Hap” Craigle, well-known referee, took thè floor. “ICs not in thè 1922-23 rules,” he declared. "I’ve got thè hook right here.” Several whlstle blowers shouted: “The rule’s in thè hook I've got.” Craigle was very sure. Somebody looked at “Hap’s” own private little hook. He had turned too many pages and was reading from thè women's basketball rules. Many remarks were made from then on, but “Hap” was strangely silent.
