tiiituiiiifliiiiiiinniiiiiiiiiniiiiniiiiinniiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiuiniiiiiniu! the DOPE By VEDDER GARD

SHE Indianapolis boxing fan craves action —and nothing else, but—in his fistic entertainments, as evidenced by the adverse comments on several pro bouts recently which have tied the slow-motion movies for lack of pep. During the lull In professional fisticuffs in the downtown arena this week, the amateui show Wednesday night at the South Side Turner gym comes at an opportune time. Statistics on the simon-pure pastime reveal the fact that over onethird of the bouts between the unpaid maulers result in knockouts. And the strange part of it is they get no dough for hearing the birdies sing, but are rewarded with medals or such prizes as sweater coats, boxing shoes, shirts and the like. We have in mind one young lad who fought in a series of amateur shows where the prizes to winners were silk shirts and to the losers boxing trunks. After participating in eight shows this lad had exactly eight pairs of trunks. And how he did crave a silk shirt! His earnest persistence attracted the attention of Jimmy Dalton, then mit coach at the Hoosier A. C., and he took the lad under his training. And to the credit of Jimmy’s system of coaching it must be remarked that our hero blossomed out in silk after the very next show. Dalton, by the way, is now in charge of the Turners’ boxing class. * * * Basketball officials will gather tonight at 519 Board of Trade Bldg., 7:30, to discuss the rules and hear the Big Ten interpretations from Stanley Feezle, who was at the Western Conference meeting last week. * * * OC. WITWER, in the course of one of his “Bill * Grim" stories of the prize ring in the current issue of Collier’s, locates one of his hero’s scraps in Indianapolis. Civic pride compels us to thank Witwer for the publicity, but we believe he should have devoted a little time to the study of the local fight situation and conditions. The noted writer probably has beard so much about Dempsey and Wills and their Indiana battle, which will never happen, that he believes this is a real fight i:,tate —not just a make-believe one. We quote from Bill Grim’s story: Shortly afterwards I Journeyed to the wide open spaces of Indianapolis, here men are authors, and fought •’•'to Oliver in the first championship imination bout. I was guaranteed t n thousand dollars and the boxing vird held up my dough for a week after the muss The bout was one long, continual clinch for the full fifteen rounds. . My startling form reversal made the sport writers believe I'd deliberately earned Oliver, and immediately after the decision I got an indefinite suspension in Indiana for not trying. “Ten thousand dollars’ guarantee.” "Boxing board held up my dough for a week.” “Indefinite suspension in Indiana.” “Championship bout.” “Fifteen rounds.” Fo? crying out loud, Witwer, how lo you get that way? All’s fair in fiction. We only wish those statements were true n Hooslerdom! * * * SHE “Ace-Me” A. A.-Fem-dale Triangle grid game at Rhodius Park on Sunday was a thriller. The Acmes claim some sort of a record when they played their fifth tie contest of the season. Hostilities ended, 0 to 0. Several thousands spectators watched the scrap free (they sure go for the free stuff in this city) and the battle was just about as good as some at which admissions are charged. Arthur Jines, in sheepskin coat and new haircut, made a dignified umpire and brooked no dissent to his rulings. Estep as head linesmen must have traveled at least six miles during the game, taking the line out to “measure.” It was an “official” battle, all right. Wolf and Brooks of the “big Ferndales” were in Triangle Jerseys helping the youngsters do their stuff. • • * Readers of this column may recall our admonition of several weeks ago to “watch MoNaught of Shortridge. If you were carrying out our suggestion and “watching,” you no doubt noted that Saturday night at KJston, McNaught scored nine field goals. • * • 1 p"l DAY morning Joe Cann £ assemb l e< l his J. J. C. I ‘ ty grid champions at ..igton Park to get their picture “tuck.” Dave Johnson, groundkeeper, had a roaring hot fire in the Indian clubhouse and the grldsters went Into, stove league session on a successful season. Everybody had been ordered to appear In uniform for the picture, and Johnny Sapp was so conscientious as to wrap his hands and ankles with tape* The photographer finally got his camera mounted —one of those “circuit” affairs which wind up and then turn slowly sweeping the arc of players. The black box started out doing Its stuff nicely, swinging around on its clicking way until it pointed straight at manager Canning all dogged up In anew bennie, and there it gave up the ghost and stopped dead still. The cameraman Inserted anew roll, oiled the mechanism up, and once more started the contraption on Us way. This time all went slick as a whistle until the lens reached Bull Skinner, when It again “died.” A third attempt got as far hs Chunk Helvie, but as Chunk was the last man in the line the photographer called It a day, with the remark that his camera was “almost htiman.” Earl McKee, publicity man extraordinary, Is responsible for this story, and he Insists that it is true.

BOXING SCORING SYSTEM IN NEW YORK NOT TO BE CHANGED

ROC K N E REMAINS O B Knute Says Columbia Placed Him in Bad Light—Returns West. Bv United Press NEW YORK, Dec. Columbia athletic officials started an Investigation today to determine the responsibility for the statement that Knute Rockne, Notre Dame football coach, had signed a three-year con tract to coach at Columbia. The football committee was said to have admitted the responsibility for the statement that was Issued to the press, bflt one of the members of the committee said James R. Knapp, chairman, had not told Knute’s Parting Shot Bv Times Special NEW YORK, Dec. 14.—Knute Rockne, football coach of Notre Dame, took leave of Ntw York for South Bend, Ind., follow'ng a parting shot at James R. Knapp, chairman of Columbia University’s football commltteee. Rockne said: “My only regret in the whole affair la that I was not dealing with a gentleman. If I Had been dealing with a real man this trouble never would have happened. “He tried to blackjack me Into signing anew and binding contract with Columbia or drive me out. I hope to remain in football, but it won't be at Columbia. Id rather sweep the streets.” him Rockne had written him Dec. .7, that he could not get his release at Notre Dame anil that the deal was off. After a day of hectic conferences Saturday, Rockne said he had been given a “dirty deal” and ihat the statement issued by Columbia officials that they didn’t know he was under contract at Notre Dame was an attempt to put him in a bad light with the public. “I refused to make a statement until I could confer with the Columbia people on an explanation that would have been fair to both of us, but they jumped the gun on me,” he said. Rockne started back to Notre Dame Sunday to see If he still had a job there. “I’m just an employe at Notre Dame,” he said, “and If the faculty doesn’t want me after what has happened, I’ll have to look for another job.” Rockne said he was to sail Jan. 6 for a month’s vacation in France.

Complaints Over Decision in Light Heavy Scrap Fail to Convince. By flenry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK. Dec. 14.—Criticism of the decisioh which gave Paul Berlenbach, light heavyweight cham pion, a victory over Jack Delaney in their recent bout, will not cause a change In the new scoring rules of the New York boxing commission, it was learned today. Delaney’s friends and those who had bet there would be anew cham pion, Insisted the score was at least 8 to 5, and that Delaney would have won If the two judges and the referee had voted according to the new rule. This rule requires the officials to mark down the winner of each round as It ts completed and give the decision to the boxer who has won the larger number of rounds if the final bell finds them on their feet. There were so many complaints about funny decisions when the officials followed the old system of scoring points promlscously and writing an opinion at the finish that the commission decided to try some-* thing new. The new system had its first local trial In a championship battle when Berlenbach and Delaney met, and to some, at least, It didn’t work, although It was our opinion that Berlenbach won handily. There Is one draw-back to the new system. It does not put a premium n exceedingly good work by a ■xer when it gives him only one "ilnt for winning a round. The >xer who knocks his opponent >wn three times In a round ought get more points than a boxer who it boxes his opponent by a shade. LEWIS WRESTLES United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 14.—Strangler ,ewis, world’s heavyweight title laimant, will meet Labrlola In two out of three falls wrestling match here tonight.
