\riRRIN’ the DOPE k By VBDDERGARD

High School, I H I undoubtedly one of the | 1 I strongest basketball teams In the State, has three rather unusual players on the squad this season. If the word colorful had not been overworked that’s what we'd call them. They are Individuals who stand out because of physical attributes, personality and skill. They differ from the average. Shultz at center is a beanpole, the top of which is some six feet four inches from the floor. Sometimes Ooach Case uses him under the opponents’ basket as a sharpshooter at close range, and at oilier times under the Frankfort basket as a guard, to grab the ball off the backboard with those long, octopus-like arms. He has Improved wonderfully since the days he was on the second team —an understudy of Cummins. Boots, a guard, Is another new one. He Is of the more or less stolid type and perhaps one of the sturdiest, huskiest players In Hoosler netdom. He Is a performer that reminds one of Keach of Butler. Tough Is the word, and when he comes through center for the tip-off, look outl He lacks the finish of the others and Is somewhat awkward, but his weight and power carry him through for shots In tight games. He’ll Improve right along. The tow-headed Spradling Is the slick one. His footwork is of the ultra-clever kind that verges on “traveling,” and ids feints with the ball catch many an unwary guard completely off balance. He handles tlie bull superbly and is a fine shot both on follow-ups around the basket and from out on the floor. He fights hard under the basket for tip-ins Just like his brother at Purdue. His style on the floor makes him outstanding in any game. And that’s the story of Frankfort’s colorful trio—a triumphant triumvirate so far this season. • • • Herrin, 111., Is in anew basketball league. How’d you like to be the referee in that town? * * * mT has been Wld at differ ent times that high school basketball In the extreme northern part of Indiana was usually a rougher game than that played In other sections. We know that In some cases this was true in seasons past. But times are changing. At Rochester, Saturday night the team from the banks of Lake Manltou played one of the cleanest games In a hard-fought fray lost to Frankfort that we have ever seen. The State champs did not make any intentional fouls, either, for that matter. They are too well coached for that. But Rochester youths were particularly Impressive because of their consistent “playing of the ball” Instead of the man, even in the hottest part of the tilt, when youngsters usually lose their heads. Rochester has no basket ’hawks,” and does not look like a high scoring team, but has plenty of drive and ‘ breaks” fast when It gets the ball. Fans may see this club at Indianapolis next Ma. h. Powell, former Hanover player, Is the new coach at the northern Indiana school. e e * • y r|E see in an account of Yy the De Pauw preparai- T tlons for Indiana tonight that, “inability to hit the loop, which was so prominent In the clash with Purdue last week, is being slowly Ironed out by the ’Old Gold’ mentor.” The Tigers made only 89 points against the Boilermakers, and lost, 49 to 39. That’s Hoosler basket-ball, for you. Enough baskets were made In that contest for three ordinary games anyyhere but In Indiana. • • • M" “ RS. MALAPROP says she Is undecided as to whether she will extend a basketball game this winter or not. We were telling her of the sport and the old lady actually turned pale at some of our descriptions. When we told her that hacking was a foul she asked if the players wore armour. “Not even the hams,” we retorted, but Mrs. Malaprop didn’t even smile and we don’t blame her. Upon hearing that anyone fouled got a free shot the old soul tossed Up her hands in horror and said she thought they at least ought to pay for the admonition (She probably meant ammunition). Mrs. Malaprop said she knew "Hap” Craigle and had just found out that he had something to do with basketball. She always had thought he was a barber after seeing his white pants hanging out on the line, but later believed he was a traffic cop on account of hearing him practicing with a whistle. She Informed us In confidence that she never thought much of him, because he never pronounced her name right. And, anyway, she didn’t see how anyone could be "happy” and anticipate In such a cruel past time. • • • SUGGESTION to the basJ JjL I ketball rules committee: If Ls- you must help out the paint companies by changing the lines on the floor each year, here’s something that should be done: Make the circle larger In which the centor* jump. We dort’t know just why It is, but most pivot men have huge feet. Those long, gangling youtha that tap or tip (either way you prefer) the ball at center have a difficult time crowding their dogs into the present circle. We aren’t kidding about this. It’s true. Should a man be fouled because hla legs axe bent under too far?

SIGNING OF GLEASON EXPECTED TO IMPROVE SPIRIT OF MACKS

TRAINING IS TRIBE PROBLEM Club Negotiates With Biloxi and Hot Springs—Young Smith Due. Hayward Smith, road secretary of the Indians, was expected to reach Indianapolis late today to confer with Manager Bush about the 1926 spring training trip of .the Tribesmen.. The Tribe gave up the Plant City (Fla.) camp after spending two training sessions there and some difficulty Is being met locating a suitable spot. Biloxi, Miss.,, wants the Indians and appears to have a good chance landing them, but Hot Springs, Ark., “came to bat” today with an offer and therefore the local club officials have decided to wait a short time before reaching a definite agreement. Milwaukee is going to train at Hot Springs, but the Arkansas resort has two ball parks and boosters there desire another club. Maurice De Loof, a tribe rookie last spring, who was released outright to the Kitchener team of the Mint League, has landed a berth with Baltimore. De Loof came to the Tribe as an inflelder, but Manager Bush changed the kid into a pitcher and that Is the way the youth goes to Baltimore. Indianapolis did not retain strings on De Loof because of the youth’s slight build. William Clauer, home secretary of the Indians, underwent an operation recently and Is at St. Vincent’s Hospital. For this roason Hayward Smith decided to report early and take over the work incidental to preparing for spring training and arranging an exhibition schedule. RAMBLERS VS. DE MOLAY The Indianapolis Ramblers, with a record of eight straight “wins” will meet the De Molay outfit tonight at the C. C. Club gym. Dearborn and Michigan Sts.

N Bv Timet Special KOKOMO, Ind., Dec. 15.—While Red Grange refereed, the Kokomo Legion football team ran rough shod over Jonesboro Filers here Monday to win, 28 to 0, and today claimed the semi-pro grid title of Indiana. A daring use of forward passes brought victory to the locals. The team scored two toucljdowns In the first period, one In the second and one in the third. Goal was kicked each time. Grange appeared without bandages on his injured arm, but it was swollen and It did not seem possible the former Illinois flash could play very soon. The crowd was rather small and disappointed the promoters. Many did not believe Grange would be present and came in late when they knew Red was on hand.

Fighting Qualities of Veteran Should Add Poise to Youngsters. By Billy Evans "NBA Service The .Athletics filled In the crisis of the American League pennant race last season because the team lacked poise. Poise in sport Is hard to define. In a sense It'means the ability to go over when things are breaking badly. It is a trait that keeps a team from going to pieces when every break In the world seems to go against It. Wby Macks Failed The Athletics finisher second. The team failed to win the American League pennant because it lacked poise. In signing the colorful William (Kid) Gleason to 1 assist him in handling the Athletics, Connie Mack bellervee he has secured the man who will supply that much-needed asset to his ball club. I have known Kid Gleason for 25 years. He Is a quaint, Interesting character. I like Kid Gleason because he Is a fighter but is always fair. The Kid never asks anything but a 60-50 break and probably wouldn’t weep very much ls the figures proved he was getting about 10 per cent the worst of It. Popular in Baseball Kid Gleason Is a square shooter, beloved by every one connected with baseball. His addition to the per sonnel of the Athletics adds plenty of color to a team Inclined to be rather drab, despite great natural ability. The Philadelphia Athletics failed last season In the pinch, because it was & young team that had no veteran in the line-up or on the coaching lines able to steady the boat when It started to rock. Kid Gleason is one of those fellows who believes everything Is going to be all right. Ho Is an optimist. purdUeTranklin tilt Bv Timet Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., Dec. 16.—Purdue basketball players are working hard these days for the approaching contest with Franklin here Friday.
