SiiniiiiimniiiiiiiiiniinitiiraniiniiiinniiinniiniiiiiimiiniinnniiiiniiDiniini TIRRIN’ | the DOPE I By VEDDER GARD is bound to be interestI I ing. It’s a chance for I * I someone with money or backing to make a real clean up. The idea is not new. It has been thought of before, but always something has come up to halt the plans. We refer to an ice skating rink in Indianapolis. The question of a suitable building is a grave difficulty. One place for the rink which .has been considered before is the Manufacturers’ Bldg, at the fairground. The sunken spa e in the middle of the structure would offer an ideal spot for the rink. Os course there are many difficulties to overcome. The installation of the freezing system is the big item right at the start. Such apparatus is expensive and in the case of the fairground structure would have to be tom out for the auto show. These are all suggestions—a wild dream if you will —we are not attempting to work out the idea. There is no doubt, however, but that it could be done if someone had the nerve, vision, and ability to put it over. New Attraction Indianapolis is "crazy” for some Panch new attraction. The rink uld be a tremendous drawing card. In the past when this city had a continued cold spell sporting goods stores sold out their complete line of skates. All of this comes to mind because of Tex Rickard’s great new rink at Madison Square Garden, New York. The New York Giant hockey teami, the first really great club that Gotham has had in the history of the ice sport, will play at the Garden. The team -opened its season at Pittsburgh on Wednesday. It will play its first New York contest on Dec. 15 against “Les Canadiens,” champs of the Canadian National Hockey League last year. Yale also will play Its home games at the new rink, meeting Harvard, Princeton, Dartmouth, McGill and others. “Amateurs” will have their innings when strong New York clubs clash. Why Not Here? Why limit such endeavors to New York? Hockey teams could be brought hero. It is, perhaps, the fastest and most exciting game played. It is almost a cinch that the sport would go over with a bang. Then there would be the fancy skating acts to entertain those who did not wish to skate themselves. mM It is a wonderful opportunity cash in and at the same time I give Indianapolis a winter sport ' palace. How could it help but succeed if the difficulties spoken of before could be overcome? Have we 1 gone cuckoo? Carl Fisher was crazy when he built the Speedway. Yes he was not! • • • Strangler Lewis and Romano 1 used only the headlock in their wrestling bout Wednesday night. With that hold no ope was in danger of getting hurt. * * • SIB Haskell Indian football team, which lives on the train during the grid season and is reported to have traveled some 17,000 miles the past year, is not yet satisfied. The Redskin club has accepted an Invitation to meet the Los Angeles A. C. on Dec. 19, at Los Angeles. Travel broadens one, don’t you know, and perhaps the coach uses this method to develop a bunch of hefty players. We insist that our story is as broad as it is long, anyway. • ♦ • Knute Rockne, famous Notre Dame coach, Is earning quite a reputation as an after dinner speaker. In New York the other day In commenting on the present trend toward pro football Knute told some stories of the old days of money playing. He • was quoted as saying that the players didn't come out of a scrimmage with the query, "Wh&t’s the score?” but, "What’s the gate?” • • • mHE two finalists in last year’s high school championship basketball tourney will meet again on Friday night at Kokomo when Frankfort takes on the Wildcats. We have not seen the champs play this season, but have witnessed Kokomo in action. Frankfort must have .plenty of stuff If It hopes to duplicate its victory of last March. • • • "I TOLD YOU SO” From this column In last Saturday's issue: "Edouard Horemans, Belgian wizard of the green cloth tables, and Jake Schaefer, champion, will meet In Chicago on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday In an 18.2 balkline billiard match for the title. We look for Horemans to surprise by a brilliant showing. Ho has improved wonderfully since he first came to these shores, years ago.” • * • E r “— 1 “ AST is East and West is 'West and the twain is not u—J supposed to meet, but it does the football field. It is getting i3o there is not a great deal of difference between the two brands of football. The shifting about of coaches aJid Intersectional games are two of the main reasons. Chicago went East with the lineplunging game supposed to be the pet of the eastern clubs. Dartmouth came West with one of the best passing attacks ever witnessed—supposedly—the West’s favorite mode of attack. There isn’t any East, West, South or North any more when It comes to the grid Bystems. Columbia, looking about for a coach, wants Andy Smith of California and is willing to play big dough for him*

Sport Fans Wait Anxiously for Results as Some 100 College Coaches Confer at Chicago. By Edward C. Derr United'■ Prcs Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 3.—Choice dishes to be served amateur sport fans during the next twelve months were in the making here today as nearly 100 athletic directors and coaches of all college sports gathered for the annual meeting of the Western Conference.

Although the meeting is primarily for the Big Ten athletic heads, coaches and athletic directors from all sections of the country took advantage of the opportunity to arrange intersectional contests next year. Football, monarch of all college sports, drew chief attention of course and in view bf the fact that many coaches believe college football will face a serious test next autumn against the Inroads of professionalism, it is likely that some of the old precedents and prejudices will be thrust into the discard and games of the greatest possible Interest will be arranged. Some leaders of the Big Ten have expressed opposition to the booking of intersectional games, preferring to have the conference teams meet their natural rivals and settle the championship in clear cut fashion. Others, however, believe that big intersectional games will draw greater national interest and will do much to uphold the prestige of college football. Prominent among the nonconference football mentors In attendance are Jesse Hawley. Dartmouth; Andy Smith, California; Knute Rockne, Notre Dame; Lou Young, Pennsylvania; Glenn Warner, Stanford, and Clark Shaughn essy, Tulane. Representatives of the Missouri Valley conference also have been Invited and several are expected. The Big Ten athletic directors opened their sessions this afternoon and will continue all day Friday. Wrestling coaches will arrange their schedules Friday afternoon and football. baseball, basketball, swimming, track and other sports will have their programs arranged Saturday. $12,500 FOR GOODRICH “Champ” Signs for Vine* Bout After Raising Ante.

BELGIAN DEFEATS SCHAEFER i Horemans Takes Billiard Title Despite World Record Run by Young Jake. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 3.—Europe today had its first billiard championship since 1906. Edouard Horemans, the Belgian cue wizard, took the 18.2 billiard balkline championship from the United States Wednesday night When he defeated young Schaefer by a score of 1,500 to 1.495 for the three 600-point blocks. Schaefer played brilliantly during the last 500-block, but the Belgian's lead during the first 1,000 points was too great for him to overcome. As the final block started the score was 1,000 to 913 in Horemans’ favor. In the Belgian’s first three turns at the table he made 100, 135 and 80. Schaefer seemed sadly off form and made only a total of 82 in four efforts. Up until the eighth frame, Young Jake’s chances appeared almost hopeless. Then he cut loosd and in the greatest exhibition of billiards ever seen ran up a world record string of 432. Horemans, however, went out in the next inning with an unfinished run of 74. The new champion is 36 years old. was bom in Antwerp, Belgium, and played his first game of billiards at the age of 15.
