I , M . g 11, Champ Eddie Martin Is Not Pierce Puncher, but He Strikes From All Angles and Is Stout

By JOE WILLIAMS NBA Service Writer v , r— —lO' one has seen enough of N Eddie (Cannonball) Martin, ___J new bantamweight champion, to tell whether he is “thMcCoy” or not. He didn't have to do much to win the title. This writer never was sold on Abe Goldstein as a champion, and said so the morning after Willie Lewis’ boy won from the badly conditioned Joe Lynch.

NURMI AGREES TO .STAY AND COMPLETE SCHEDULE Finn Was on Point of Returning Home at Once —Peeved , at Officfais and Ticket Scalping, By L. FARRELL United, Press Staff Correspondent . NEW YORK, Jan. 19.—Relieved of a heavy peeve that he took on in Chicago, Paava Nurmi, Finland’s running champion, has decided not to return home at once, and will Remain in this country until late in March." There are fifteen more races on the program arranged by his managers and he is now in a mood to go through with his part, although he may confine his competition to ten-lap tracks.

Nurmi was almost in a rage when ho returned here Saturday night from Chicago to run in his third race in forty-eight hours after having made a 2,000-mile railroad journey. . . > If Nurmi had benn beaten by Joie Bay in Chicago Friday, instead of turning in the new world’s record he made^he would have demanded a ticket to Finland on the first ship out, it was learned. Finds Shorter Track , The Finn claimed he had been assured that he would run on a tenlap track and when he went but for the race he learned the size of the track had been reduced to twelve laps and all his plans for the pace in the race had to be changed. . Nurmi blamed the officials for using him only as the means of. getting more mqney into the house at the expense of a reputation he might have lost on a smaller track. Murray Hulbert, president of the A- A. U., succeeded In getting Nurmi cooled off arid after a 'conference with officials Sunday Nurmi said he would remain to complete his schedule. That Second Class Ticket After Nurmi had seen Madison Square Garden packed to the roof for his race here and had heard that ticket rcalpers were getting five times tile face value of tickets here and In Chicago he is said to have been curious as to the reasons for sending him a second -class ticket for his voyage from Finland.

Probably as he stands now Martin is not a great fighter. Few tghters have been really great at is age, 21. Perhaps he s will develop. A whole lot depends on how the champioship affects him. It gives some fighters confidence and poise. Others become terrible fighters as champions. The possibility rof defeat and the consequent loss of their valuable crown Beem to paralyze them.

Saturday night they chopped their way out of a tight place and emerged with their eleventh straight win of tfcfe season, this time over the fast Brownsburg five, 28 to 22. The Blue and White netter* trailed all through she first half, being a couple of points to the bad at the rest period. Tying it up at the start of the final session, the Shortridgers snapped into.

always fought his best when another held the bantam title. Goldstein probably will fight better now that he has nothing tX stake. Martin is not particularly interesting in action. He is one of those wind mills who punch from all angles and seemingly never tire. Why they nicknamed him Cpinnonbal! is a mystery to me. Buckshot would be vastly better. A cannonball is destructive, buckshot is merely annoying. There is noth-

FRANKLIN SQUAD AND WABASH TOP HOOSIER NETTERS L L i ,/ ‘ ? t ' ’ ; 1 , Scarlet’s Sensational Victory Over Butler Boosts 0 * Vaughn's Stock, •,After Saturday’s college net games in this State, Franklin and Wabash must be placed at the top of t)ie heap for the present. The feature struggle right here in Indianapolis was the Scarlet and Butler fray, which was won by Wabash in a fast, tight contest, 22 to 19. So much has been said of the flying forwards, De Vol and Robinson, that the guards, Burdette and Coflfel, were neglected. They came through in sensational style against the Irvington netters and forced the locals to shoot many long ones. Burdette Shines Burdette’s great dribbling was a decided factor in the Wabash victory. He seems to have found himself at the floor guard position and is playing the best game of his college career. He appears in splendid condition. Robinson, at forward, made twelve of his team’s points. It is seldom that three such dribblers as De Vol, Robinson and Burdette are seen on one team. Christopher, with four field goals, led the Butler attack. Colway played a fine game at back guard. Nipper did weil throughout, but could not hit. Griggs did not make a basket. Crimson Team Loses Indiana "U” lost its second Western Conference game. Illinois was too strong and ran up a 84 to 24 victory. Logan was the big star for the Crimson. Franklin swamped Rose Poly In one of the most lop-sided games recorded for some time. The Engineers made only three points to the champs' fifty. One field goal and one foul extent of the losers’ scoring. Hanover defeated Louisville "U” 25 to 16; Muncie Normal downed Huntington, 82 to 28, and Manchester upset Indiana Central, 87 to 24.

This is rather an off-week in Hoosier college net circles with one big game Tuesday holding most of the interest when Butler goes to Greencastle to tackle De Pauw.
