SIfHIIIM TIRRIN’ the DOPE By VEDDER GARD

i r "SUTLER has what appears I D 1 to be a strong basketball I I team this year If a couple of the sophomore players come through as expected. The club, however, meets a severe early season test at Illinois on Saturday night against a veteran outfit of much class. Coach Ruby at the Urbana school has seven “I” men back. Ex-captain Mauer, Captain Haines and Martin have played two years. It is reported that Mauer’s bum leg which bothered him last year is O. K. again. Llpe, Daugherlty, Reynolds and Kassel played last season. Daugherlty and Kassel are football players of more than ordinary ability. Kassel was all-conference selection at end on most of the Big Ten mythical elevens. The Illinl crew which tied with I. U. for second place last year looks better than ever with a wealth of material also available from the sophomore players. No doubt but that Butte* has a real task ahead. It is the first .game of the season for Ruby’s aggregation and opens the season in Illinois’ new gym which has a seating capacity of 7,000. • • • It just can’t be done, Red. You can't play football every day and satisfy the fans or yourself. Along with the berries you sock in the bank there are bound to be plenty of razzbetries if you don’t deliver. And you CAN’T deliver every day. This football game is not like the ice business. • • * EIMMY PHELAN, Purdue football coach, at the Elkhart Lions’ Club football dinner said that he liked his football players tough—no drug store cowboys for him. This will insult some of the present day sheiks. They like to be thought bad, bold men. They don’t know that it takes more real nerve these days to DO something than it does to hang around a corner, shoot pool, chase the ladies and Charleston. In their eyes uny one who works, or studies and goes to bed at night is a weakling. The sermon being finished, we will now turn to page 157 in the green book. Everybody stand white we sing. • * * SIM MULLEN, the Chicago promoter, was in tlte city Wednesday and signed up Merle Alte for the big Christmas Fund show in Chicago on Dec. 19. The opponent was not named. The fistic carnival is an annual affair sponsored by Chicago society leaders. The bout is part of Merle’s reward for his showing against Rychell in East Chicago last week. Rychell, a Chicago favorite, also is on the card. Rychell and Alte probably will be matched again at some later date in an East Chicago bout. • * • The Illinols-Butler basketball game will be broadcast by WRM, the University of Illinois broadcasting station, on 273 meters wave length. The “knothole” itory of the Contest will be on the ilr starting at 7:27 p. m. • * * Bogoljubow, Torre, Riti, Bogatyrtschulk, Loewenfisch, Gotthilf, Saemisch, Chotimirsky, Subarew, etc. This is not the linotype operator’s fault—just a list of some of the chess masters who competed In the tourney at Moscow won by Bogoljubow. Celluloid fire-tongs will be given to anyone who can enunciate these tongue twisters without denunciation. * • • ——IRS. MALAPROP, who has M been keeping herself scarce lately, dropped in to see us today and wanted to know how it was that they played football at the Polo Grounds. She thought we were kidding her when the inform mation was imparted that in reality it was a baseball field. She safd she was glad that Walter Johnson’s great worth had been reconciled and that he had been ejected into the presidency of the American League. Wrong again, but we let her go. She wanted to know when the all-American team was to anticipate in a football game because she wished to see those great informers. Mrs. Malaprop is interested in basketball, too. but was somewhat confused as to the nature of the pastime. She wondered what would be done if the streams and lakes were frozen. Evidently she had read where the Irvington net team was going after the Suckers. , see The many Indianapolis Elks who are bowlers will be interested in the announcement that this year’s tourney will be held in Milwaukee, starting on Feb. 27. Most of the best bowlers in the business are Elks. We would like to have some Elk explain this. • • • SHIS State is simply over-run with high school basketball players. Nearly all of the coaches are developing “second” teams which in many cases are of such high class that they could defeat many Hrst string fives. The mentors believe in preparedness and some of thfem pay almost as much attention to developing the reserves as they do to the varsity. It is a wise coach that knows the potential strength of the “seconds” for they will be “firsts” in seasons to come. All of which makes more and better basketball players. Th,e number of really exceptional net performers in Indiana is remark*able. • * * We see where Jack Reynolds “successfully defended his world’s welterweight title” again Wednesday night. If you are a wrestling fan this wont make you laugh.

NATIONAL LEAGUE DISTURBED BY ACTIONS OF JUNIOR CIRCUIT

SECOND AMATEUR CARNIVAL Simon-Pure Boxers in Show at Turner Gym Next Wednesday. The announcement of the second of ( the monthly amateur boxing shows to be staged at the South Side Turner gym next Wednesday evening should serve to revive the drooping spirits of local fight fans. Jimmy Dalton, new Turner Jxixing instructor, and Arthur Paetz, physical director, are lining up a simonpure show that they promise will be a knockout. Dalton is grooming a “find” to go against the much-feared Sconce of the Faitbanks-Mdrse Club; a Terre Haute heavyweight is coming over to scrap Jack Sellers of the Turners; there will bo entries from all the local organizations, and a big surprise feature to close the program. The success Dalton had while In charge of boxing at the Hoosier Athletic Club has encouraged many to believe he will work wonders with the Turner maulers, and most of the old-timers no doubt will be on hand to see the results of Jimmy’s first show in his new position.

The National owners also consider It an effront that the American League owners turned down their proposal that pitchers be allowed to use resin on the ball and that they arbitrarily set Sept. 26, as the closing date for the 1926 season without consulting the National League about it. Tlie “First Round” The attitude of the National League owners seems to be—“if you are looking for a fight, we'll give you one.” And round one of the bout was expected to be started today at the annual Join” meeting of the two leagues with Commissioner Landis. Last year Johnson was chastised for having made some nasty cracks about thp commissioner. He was booted off the advisory council and warned publicly that If he didn’t become a nice old fellow, he would be fired from his Job. Ban was Buch "a nice fellow” all year that the magnates became softhearted and showed the change in their affections with dough Instead of flowers. Advisory Board It was understood some of Johnson’s friends would have entertained a motion to put hin/back in his old seat on the advisory board with Landis and John Heydler, president of the National League, but it was decided to wait for another year. The commissioners’ contract has two more years to run and it is no secret or no particular rap at the commissioner that all of the magnates do not want him re-appointed and that some of them are in the mood to abolish the position of commissioner and return to the old form of government which they consider just as effective and much leus expensive.

FAMOUS COLL EGE STARS ART CARLSON DE WITT’S FREAK GOAL I’’ | RKAK plays! You find them In I L I all branches of sport. It matters I X | not whether It be football, baseI I ball, billiards or even croquet, every now and then an unusual play crops out. One of the freakiest ever witnessed on the gridiron perhaps took place on a bleak November day back In 1911. On the afternoon in question a strong Princeton eleven was playing an equally good Dartmouth team. For the major portion of the fracas the two combatants had wared pretty much of an even struggle. Indeed. It looked like the buttle would end in a scoreless tie. Finally, however, the Tigers uncorked on offensive that carried them down to the Green’s thlrty-flve-.vard stripe. But there Dartmouth braced. And Princeton decided to try for a field goal. Dewitt, Princeton’s great kicker, was called back. The ball was passed and the Dewitt musketry swung into action. The boot was a low. hurried one, though, barely sailing over the Dartmouth line of scrimmage. It appeared like a miserable effort. But as the oval struck the turf a few yards in front of the goal posts. It bounded high In the air. going over the crossbar and winning the game. Obviously it was a fluke of the rankest sort, and it stirred up so much adverse comment that the field goal rale was later revised, thus avoiding any chance for a repetition of so freaky a play. ROLLER SKATE EVENT Second Elimination at Riverside Tonight—Finals on Saturday. Eight roller skaters will compete tonight at Riverside Rink In the second trial heat which will eliminate five from the race for the State speed championship. The first three to finish In the mile event will enter the finals Saturday night along with the three who qualified Tuesday night.

GRANGE WORN BY EFFORTS Red Weakens Under Strenuous Pressure of ‘Fame’ —Too Many Games. Bv United Press PITTSBURGH. Deo. 10.-Standing under the burden of trying to live up to a reputation and disillusioned by the life of a great public hero, a worn and haunted Red Grange was here today trying to keep going on his dash for a fortune. As Jack Dempsey and Bribe Ruth had learned before him, Orange is beginning to know that the penalty of fame is "thumbs dpwn” when a star doesn't deliver and that the public expects much of a hero when he is being paid for It. Veteran football critics, watching Grange try to play eight games in seventeen days and attempt a schedule of thirty-one games in little more than two months predicted it could not be done and it begins to appeur that it cannot be done. The strain of travel and the noise from a pestering public and the burden of his fame has worn Grange down so much that he was unable to do a thing in Boston Wednesday and he was forced to listen to the first, chorus of razzberrles from disappointed customers. Grange said in New York earlier in the week that he had to make the money while the making was good and he apparently allowed his managers to go the limit In accepting offers without realizing that there was a limit. The Providence Steam Rollers defeated Grange’s team In Boston Wednesday, 9 to 6.
