WABASH PILES UP HUGE COUNT OVER FRANKLIN Vaughan's Fire-Ball Five Speeds Way to 50-24 Victory —Entire Team Shines in Battle. Bv Times Special FRANKLIN, Ind., Feb. 7. it —The scarlet red banner of Wabash College shot to the top of the Hoosier basketball mast here Friday night, when Pete Vaughan’s fire-ball five smothered Franklin, 50 to 24. The boys in red were “hot.” They scorched the floor speed and set the draperies ablaze with field goals. At half time the visitors enjoyed a lead of 29 to 10.

Franklin missed the services of Fuzzy Vandivier, who is out with injuries, but it is doubtful if Fuzzy’s presence would have prevented that Wabash crew from scoring an impressive victory. Coffel, regular back guard, was out of the Scarlet line-up with an injured ankle. Cowan took Coffel’s position and fitted right in with the remainder of the Vaughan “works.”

The contest was staged in the high school gym and the hall was packed. The old S. O. R. sign didn’t remain up long. Red Robinson, Wabash, was the leading point scorer. He registered eight field goals and three from the foul line. All scarlet-clads were in form and performed brilliantly both on offense and defense. Burdette played an aggressive game throughout. Captain Chadwick enjoyed a large and tall evening and Devol played his customary fine floor game. Gant was the leading light for Franklin. Feezle and Moloney officiated. Oh, yes, Franklin “held” the lead once, 2 to 0, at the start of the fracas,, when Gant scored immediately following the opening tapoff. After that Wabash rambled and rolled and amassed a fat advantage. Fifty to twenty-four—think of the score in Franklin! BARBARIAN BEATS MORAN Sid Wins on Points—Other Detroit Fistic Results. Bv United Preaa DETROIT, Feb. 7.—Sid Barbarian, Detroit lightweight,, won a judges’ decision over Pal Moran, New Orleans, in ten rounds Friday night. Clarence Rosen, Detroit bantam, knocked out Victor Ritchey, New York, in tthe third round. Benny Schwartz, Baltimore bantam, won a ten-round decision from Joe Lucas, Detroit.

HOT BOUT TAKEN BY MANDELL Sammy Outpoints Terris in Thriller for Unofficial Lightweight Crown. BY HENRY FARRELL United Preaa Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—“ There waa a time Friday night,” Sammy Mandell, new unofficial lightweight champion, said today, “when I neard some fine singing. It was the birds in the fifth round and it w r as queer music.” These remarks are characteristic of the youth and modesty of young, good looking Mandell, who gave Sid Terris, the pride of the east side, the licking of his life in a twelve-round bout in Madison Square Garden, that worked a $60,000 crowd of 12,000 fans into a frenzy. By Wide Margin With the exception of the fifth round the fight was all Mandell’s. Mandell would have won by a knockout if he had not made the mistake of getting careless. He tripped and fell over the referee's foot in the third round. He knocked Terris all over the ring in this round and had the crowd shouting the old warcry, “There he goes!” The gong saved Terris. Then, when the fifth round started, Mandell dashed out of his corner to finish the fight, only to run into a right-hander that almost ruined him. For three minutes he staggered around the ring, but he didn’t go down. Regains Strength After the fifth round Mandell cleared quickly and again took the fight away from Terris. The decision giving Mandell the victory was unanimous, the referee and the two judges agreeing Terris had been beaten. Mar dell’s victory virtually stamps him as the new lightweight champion. His victory was not by such a slight margin that Terris is entitled to further consideration. K. C. TRACK CARNIVAL 200 Athletes Entered—Butler College Stars Compete.
