Local Schools Come Strong Towards Finish and Are Ready for Sectional Play
By VEDDER CARD WE LL, who’s going to win the sectional? That's the password into the depths of many profound arguments in this city today. It's tli£ “open seSame” to various free for-ull of the relative strength of* sixteen teams. If one were to ask that same question in sixteen different high schools he would get exactly sixteen different answers. The majority would favor Technical High School, because there are more students at Tech than anywhere else. New Bethel and Oaklandon open up the festivities at 9 o’clock Friday

It is the start of the crowning features of a great year in high school basket-ball. To keep the sport the sport that it is the fans, in school and out, as well as the players must make it a gTeat exhibition of sportsmanship. Root for your team. Back them until the last ditch, but don’t forget that a true sport is a good loser. TThen the smoke clears Saturday night some school will have won the right to represent this sectional in the regional meets. That wiU be true in forty-seven other places. The old gag of razzing the officials and opposing players is a bum exchange of sportsmanship. Beat ’em if you can, but if you can’t let’s doff our lids to the best team and do it nicely. -I- -I- -IChick Shorten, outfielder, makes another move.

State Basket Title at Stake in Bailer-Franklin Straggle Tonight
BOTH TEAMS IN CONDITION FOR GREAT BATTLE Pagemen Wallop Quakers 43 to 26 —Capacity Crowd to See Contest. Down in Johnson County tonight the spark3 will fly. floors will creak, fans y*4U yell, schools will clash, teams will battle and from It all will emerge the Indiana State college basket-ball champion. With Earl ham floored by a crushing defeat, Butler takes on Franklin with everything at stake. To the winner goes the great distinction of being the best State college net team in a year that has been marked by hf Her and stronger squads than ever before. Franklin turned the trick on Butler at Tomlinson Hall, winning by four points, but should Butler win tonight because of her great record against Conference and State teams, she ha the right to claim the Stato title. If Franklin turns the trick again, no one will dispute Griz Wagner’s claim to the title. It will be a great game between two great teams. Butler has two defeats marked up against her, one by Franklin and the other by Marquette. Franklin was defeated by Indiana, but, because of a conference ruling, was not allowed to play fresh freshmen. For that reason the Indiana defeat cannot be held against Franklin tn doping the champ. The team that has played the major portion of the Franklin schedule is made up of freshmen. The game will be called at 8 p. m. in the Franklin High School gym. "Shorty” Morrison will referee and Bert Westover will umpire. About six hundred Butler rooters will accompany the team to Franklin. All seats have been disposed of and arrangements have been made to accommodate the overflow at the electric 6eo reboards.

At the first of the season that same cry went up that has been wafted to the breezes every season. “A county team would beat out the Indianapolis schools.” N And this year as in years gone by the city teams have gradually come to the front and most of the county fives have gradually faded to the background. After noting Tech ’>4m p rove me n t at the tail-end of the season one would be inclined to pick the Green and White as probable winners were it not for the difficult schedule drawn. Even at that.

contest. The East Slders will probably be forced to play West Newton, Valley Mills and Ben Davis or Southport to reach tho final game. It Is the hardest card any team Is called upon to play. The team Is none to rugged and the pace may tell. Any one of Tech's opponents Is liable to win and the city school will be under a constant strain. It will be a hectic tourney for the rooters who wave the Green and White. Excitement —there'll be oodles and oodles of It.

•BASEBALLING IN JAPAN
Japan Has Its Home Run Hero —‘ Babe ’ Tanaka
DON'T get the idea that an American crowd is the only colleclection of fans that likes to see the old “kiwer” clouted off a baseball. The Nipponese are all trying to emulate Babe Ruth, American players, “baseballing in Japan” found, according to this story, told to Billy Evans of the NEA staff—
. By WAITE HOYT Pitcher for the New York Americans and World Series Iloro. THE home-run habit Is not en-! tlrely peculiar to the United States. The deeds of Babe Ruth have boon wafted across the continent and ocean to Japan. With the Jap players and rg*yk'f'Jja Tvy fans the homo run BHpPPRRfIQHk the big Ik While the ball j K * used In Japan In' . not as lively as j KyShsL' ■t*? ■ the one used In 1 jkvy-i-f LttwP the States, you can ■j-• take It from me It 1 - % Is a mighty good ball. A peculiar! feature of tho Japa- 1 PTO 'S nose baseball Is that It is entirely j hand made. A number of us j WAITE HOYT players made the* trip to tho factory I where much of the sporting goods of ; Japan is manufactured. We mar- j veled most at the making of tho ball, j Instead of having a special machine j to wind tho yarn around tho rubberj center, the operation Is performed en-j tlrely by hand. It Is really remarkable | how tightly and evenly tho yam Is ; voend and - how perfect tho ball is v hen completed. The “Babe Ruth” of Japan Is a chap bv the name nf Tanaka- It is fitting and proper that ho should be called by the nickname Babe. J Tho Japs as a raco are short of mature. It could not be expected that ho In any way compares with Ruth In j physique. However, when he got hold of a fast ball ho certainly could give i, a long ride. Babe Tar.aka Is built, along tho lines of the once Justly famed Ping Bodfe. In fact, of the plate Tanaka reminds you very much of tho illustrious Ping. He is a right-handed hitter and takes is cut at a fast one that would bring ihame to Harry Heilmann or Roger* Hornsby. It was probably unkind of us pitch- i era. but as would be expected, we j worked harder on Tanaka than any of the other Jap players.

The Technical line-up will very likely be Hite and Wehrel, forwards, Hickman, center, and Gordon and McClain guards. Cheering news to Tech’s followers is to the effect that Shultze probably will be one of the eight men. It will help a lot If he can play.

To his credit It must be said that he sure [ did hit the only fast ball that was pitched to him. He pulled a fast one pitched Inside down the third base foul line a mile a minute. It was good for two bases. In a way we players temporarly ruined the fame of the Japs’ great home-run hitter.

Shortridge may win this game although Manual's players ar.e more experienced in tourney plays. There Is an inclination as the time draws near for the grand finale to give Shortridge credit for a real team. Manual in all probability will use Glazier and Martin or Becker at forward, Howard, center, and Floyd and Eichman, guards. Shortridge’s best bets are Ferguson and Sayce, , forwards, Stillwell, center and Dixon and Franklin, guards.
