As the games got under way this morning at the three regional centers there were less teams In the running. Six teams were eliminated at Lafayette and six at Ft. 'Wayne in the first round play Friday. Thirtysix teams were stifl in the tight before the first game was played today. At Lafayette and Ft. Wayne firstround contests were on the card this morning and second-round tilts this afternoon and tonight. After today’s play In these centers five teams will he left at each place to compete In the finals at Indianapolis March 16 and 17. At Bloomington, where only twelve teams are In competition, the struggles started this morning, ana only one round will be played, leaving six teams for the finals at the Coliseum. ’ The best games on Friday were played at the Lafayette tourney. Right off the bat Cravvfordsvllle and Logansport hooked up In a hot one In which Grawfordsvilie caused the spectators to go wild by Its wonderful comeback. Then Lebanon eliminated Jefferson of Lafayette In what was perhaps the greatest game of the day at either - nipfrom the start. Bainbridge was too good for Brook Manual Fights Hard Manual and Martinsville tied up in another close struggle. The In ( ianapolis team played a strong defensive game and held the Artesian City lads on even terms throughout most of the contest. Jarrell's baskets in the last minutes of play decided the fray. Martin was the big scorer for Manual with four field goals and two from the foul line. The south- ■ Friday Tourney Scores 1 AT LAFAYETTE Crawtordsviile. 28: LoEHiisnort. 23.

In the evening games a mild upset occurred when Frankfort defeated Emerson of Gary by a 17 to 11 score. Frankfort expected to win, but many of the dopesters figured Gary was Four of the Emerson ran info a little totigh luck v hen they were considerably shaken up In an auto accident while aeing driven to the gym. Greentown won over Wolcott in a game that was fast all the way. At Ft. Wayne the big feature was the upset of Shelbyville by the Mooreland team. That thrill was reserved for the last game of the day. Hodges, the gr-at Fbelhyvllle center, did more than bis share to stem the tide with six field goals, but he could not do it all alone. The losers were in the lead at the half, 13 to 11, hut the game was tied up at the middle of the second half and the accurate shooting of the Mooreland five put them out in front to stay. Nothing Very Exciting Other games tu Ft. Wayne were somewhat mediocre. A number of the teams did not show a great deal of basket-hall. The two seemingly best teams to exhibit their stuff on the first day were South Bend and Muncie. Neither had a whole lot of opposition, disposing of Culver and Rochester without any trouble. Warsaw defeated Losantville, whose claim to fame was short lived. South Side of Ft. Wayne defeated Garrett, 29 to 21. Fromuth of the winners was the whole show. In the opening game Kendallville was too strong for Liberty Center. The high spot In today's play seems to be the Bedford-Bloomington game at Bloomington. The strength of tl iS\ teams plus the rivalry that exMv should make this contest or.e! of the best of the regional tourneys, j Other feature tilts are the Columbus and Evansville fray at 4 p. m. in tha Bloomington meet. Crawfordsville and Lebanon at 3 p. m. at Lafayette and Bainbridge and Martinsville at 4 p. m. at Lafayette. A number of the other battles look interesting and no one can tell when some of the smaller teams will step out and give the batteted old dope bucket a vicious kick.
