Radicai Changes Are Planned for Conduci of State Basket-ball Tourneys

WOULD ifJGRERSE SECTIONAL AND REGIONALMEETS Many More Schools Are in thè Field With Teams This Year. EXPECT 640 QUINTETTES Radicai changes in thè conduct of thè next State high school basket-ball tournament will be made, if plana now under consideration are carried out by thè Indiana High School Athletic Associatlon, lt became known today. These changes, if made, wtll include doubling thè number of sectional tournaments from thirty-two to sixty-four t thè holding of four. regional tournaments instead of two, as has been thè custom for thè past years, and thè playing of two rounds instead of one at these regional tournaments. The great increase in thè number of high school basket-ball teams in Indiana has been responsible for thè proposed changes, A. L. Trester, as--•■ciation secretary, said today. Last vear 564 teams entered thè State tourP.amenf, and Secretary Trester expects about 640 teams to fce in thè rur.nlng this year. "Last year we had thiriy-tv.o sectional centers,” he said, “a great increase over thè year befoie, but even then we had to assign as many as twenty-two teams to some sections. This is entlrely too many and ali inàications are that unless more sections are added thè congestion will be stili greater this year, ‘'By doubling thè number of sections we could reduce thè number of teams in each sectional tomnament to about ten each instead of seventeen, as was thè case last year. Then our idea hae been to atìc two regional tournaments to tiiose now held at Indiana and Purdue. Then two rounds would be played at each regional tou?nament whlch would cut thè field to sixteen teams, four from each ragionai. The surviving sixteen would play for thè chajnpionshlp in a fina! tournament at Indianapolis. Among thè places suggested for holding thè two additlonal regional tournaments in case thè changes are adopted are De Pauw and Wabash college®, both of which have large gymnasium; Richmond, where there is a building of large seating eapacity, and thè new high school gymnasium at Ft. Wayne. YANKEES SICN CUBAN |Bv United Xeie p NEW YORK, Dee. 2.—Raphael Quintana, which is not a Spansh cocktail, but a Cuban shortstop, will be with thè New York Yankees at New “rlaans In thè spring.

BILLY EVANS Says

While reviewing thè records of tho lcading college coaches one must not cverlook thè remarkable feats of C’oach Knute Rockne at Notre Dame. For live years Rockno has directed thè afEairs of Notre Dame on thè gridiron with amazing succecss, having lpst only three games in that Urne. Rockne, by thè way, is a product of Notre Dame. He captained thè 1913 team which won seven games and lost none. When Jesse Iktrper, v. ho had successfully couched Notre Dame teams for Uve years, retired Rockne was called upon. Rockne faced a rather dffficult task when he nssumed Harper’s place at Notre Dame. Under Harper thè “Flghting lalshmen” had been very successful. In live years thè team hRd won thirty-ftve and lost only five games. Under Rockne. Notre Dame has achieved its greatest success on thè gridiron. He has doveloped thè forward pass as has no other coach in thè country. Notre Dame year aster year has boasted an aerial attack that has made it one of thè most feared elevens in thè country. In perfecting thè aerial game Rockne has not overlooked thè fundumentals or thè other essential fea tures of a well-rounded eleven. As a result Notre Dame teams under Rockne have been well coached. Iri his first year at Notre Dame Rookne's team won slx and lost one game. This was in 1918. The defeat was administered by thè strong Nebmska team by thè score of 7 to 0. In 1919 and 1920 thè Notre Dame team was undefeated, winnlng nineteen straight games. Last season Notre Drone won ten and lost one game. lowa handed out thè only deleat, 10 to 7, In a game In which Notre Dame'galned twice as riuch ground as thè vlctors. Notre Dames has played ten games this year and won eight, and lost one and tled òne. Prominent among thè victories was thè one over Georgia Tech, rated as one of thè best teams ir. thè South.
