By EDDIE ASH Billy “Spud” Campbell, Terre Halite Three-I League third baseman and formerly of Franklin College, today was purchased by the Indianapolis Tndi- i ans. Manager Hendricks announced, i The Tribe boss was elated oVer his success in landing the youthful Iloosier intiekler and he l>oiieves he turned a deal that will make a popular hit with the fans. Campbell is an all-around athlete an<T is playing basket-ball this winter with the Sheibyville Elks. When in college at Franklin he was among the outstanding athletes of the State. Is a .300 Hitter Campbell has been in league base- j ball about three years and his record j the last two seasons has been high- j class. In 1921 he hit .325 and in 1922 | he hit .309.
Manager Hendricks had been keeping his eye on Campbell for some time and was advised . recently by Owen , Bush and Elmer Dugan to buy the j young star. Dugan is a veteran Three-, I Leaguer who lives at Franklin. Campbell stole forty-one bases in 1921 and twenty-one in 1922. His rec- I ord as a sacrifice hitter also made a lilt with Hendricks, the player getting thirty-one in 1921 and thirty-three in 1922. Campbell s fielding average last season was .916. jr Speeds I p Competition. The purchase of Campbell will nj*ke competition on th* Tribe infield rather , warm. Seven infielders, including Steve Yerkes arid Tom Whelan', utility, are now on the roster, as follows: Kirke, Christenbury. Sicking, Baird, Campbell, Whelan and Yerkes. With Ownie Bush interested in Campbell the Three-I League lad will get a thorough chance to make good as a regular. If he makes good in a big way here a future sale to Washington Americans will be in prospect. Sam Gullion, an ex service man, today was appointed trainer for the In dians. He was recommended byAndy Lotshaw, former Irfdian trainer now with the Chicago Cubs. President Smith, satisfied with the preparations for the 1923 season, will depart for St. Petersburg. Fla., tonight for a vacation. While in the South he may secure a training camp site for the Indians in th<- Peninsula State. tamlfeais KELL! § POINTS Bud Gets Away to Fast Start in Scrap.

WALTER SCHMIDT Vy XEA Service PITTSBURGH. Pa.. Jan. 9.—Walter Schmidt, first-string catcher of the Pittsburgh teNm, is op the market. Failure of Schmidt to report in the spring of 1922 forced Pittsburgh to use young catchers. Given the opportunity to work regularly both re emits, Gooch and Mattox, made good. Schmidt is a great backstop. It was believed that, he would be immediately gobbled up by some club, but as yet nothing doing. This has come as a surprise to Dreyfus and probably an even greater one to Schmidt.

Then pome wag In th<r grandstand started all the trouble by yellihg. "Why don’t you steal home. Eddie?" Alnsmith decided to do that very j thing.

BHILEHNETTERS MUCH TOO GOOD FORNHTRE DIE Irish Given Decisive Beating by Locals in Rough and Tumble Game. * Bv VEDDER GARD The' Nptre Dame basket-ball team should nickname of Bulldogs because of their ability to hang on. The players from South Bend hung onto anything in sight Monday pight at Tomlinson Hall against ButIbr—throughout the contest arms, legs and shoulders were grabbed, and occasionally the basket-ball. The tilt was an easy victory for the Irvington five, 29 to 14. Notre Dame made onjy two field goals throughout the forty minutes, and both of those were wild and woolly shots that happened to find the loop. Notre Dame meets Purdue at Lafayette tonight and Butler takes on I’.arlham at the Irvington gym. }looker and' Leslie were kept out of a greater part of the fray Monday night in order to be ready for the games later in the Week. Purdue Is the Sutler opponent at Lafayette on Friday. Report* preceding the Irish nettere stated that they had finally gotten together a basket team. Jutglng from the Butler game It seems to be the same old story of Notre Dame net endeavor—a five-man footbftll team playing xvith a round ball on a hard floor. They did everything but make flying tackles and a couple of those were tried by subs who went into the game late. The Notre Dame version of basket-ball Is surely not what crowds at Tomlinson Hall have been looking at recently. Young Nipper, the freshman guard, formerly of Tech, looks better every [ lay. He played a beautiful game against the Irish and proved hard to tackle. He dropped in four close-up shots In the first period. Griggs also went good Wally Middles worth took plenty of shots and finally snagged a couple of long ones. Paul got a chance and fitted In well with the Butler style of play and Bhowed plenty of speed. ColwaV played one of his best games during the time he was in. The visitors showed flashes of speed but that is about all. ‘NIGHTERS’ FOR ATHLETICS Athletics will he encouraged at the \rsenal Technical night school during the second term, which opened Monday night.
