ASKETBALL fans who fol low the high school games ■ii are so apt to forget that the players are just boys. In many communities over the State the stars of the various clubs are made heroes and their every move is -;lven exaggerated importance. The same pitiless publicity that L'alls .to the lot of a national sport celebrity is focused to a lesser degree on many a prep basket player in Hoosierdom. It is a condition that cannot be changed, while human nature remains the same. This is a nation of hero-wor-shipers, but the minute the athletic god slips a little from his great performances the public is as eager with its censure as it was with its praise and adulation. This tendency makes it mighty tough on the boys in the glare of the limelight throughout this State. In a dressing room the other night at a high school gym one of the players said, “Why these folks around here tell me what I’m going to do almost be fore I know it myself. They tell me where I’ve been and where I’m going. And they tell me a lot of things I never even thought of Wish they’d lay off of me.” That lad said a mouthful. But such a condition is bound to exist. And that’s not the worst of it. The minute a temn slumps a little all sorts of rumors arc spread by malicious gossipers who should be put in jail. The most absurd tales find some who believe them. We have heard stories aboui two of last year’s final tournament stars who were placed on a number of "all-State ’ teams which we know to be absolutely false. Have a heart! Have a heart' They are just boys—no different from other average youths with the exception that they can spin a ball through a hoop and are able to dash through forty minutes of the most strenuous pas time better than the other fellow * * • What’s this? Noire Dame mak ing plenty of points on the has ketball floor and acting as though the players knew ivhat it was all about—surely not! But it must be true. Three victories in three starts, two of them over Big Ten teams, Minnesota and Northwestern, is the record to date. But let’s wait until after Friday night and see what happens when lowa is met on the new floor at Notre Dame. It will be a real test. It will show whether the Notre Dame five is something to get excited about —or just another good Iloosier team. * * • Sure enough, Goslin is just a ‘Goose” as Earl Smith intimated many times in the last world series. The Washington outfielder parked his auto in a forbidden spot and was hailed into court, in the Nation’s capital for violation of the traffic law. * * * H"|OW does Tex Rickard get that way? The other night the New York sports pro moter “opened” his new Madison Square Garden for the third time and for the third time it was lammed. The first event in the new sports emporium was the sixday bike race. Crowds thronged to see the pedal pushers go round and round. The next - "opening” of the Garden was the Berlenbach-D -laney scrap. Another sellout. Then “official opening.” with glistening ice as the lure which drew another capacity crowd to watch a hockey contest and see the fancy skaters. Three sellouts in three weeks. Is It any wonder that behind that big perfeeto and through the smoke screen can be seen a large grin on Tex’s countenance? /* * * Someone told us rpcently we hadn’t mentioned Red Grange, for several days and wondered what was the matter. In ordei not to disappoint any one we’ll say this for Red—he lived op to his “contract” witli Illinois, which ran three years, THEN he changed his affiliations. Get the idea? • • • rr-rio one could convince I I etc^er Butler basketball I | player, that the sun is shinng today. The /former Shelby ville star was all ready to make ihe trip with his team mates to lowa City Wednesday afternoon In the final practice Fletcher sprained his bum ankle and Coach ’age was forced to leave him at iome. Now, on the other hand, "Dog” Sommers '*s feeling mighty fine. He took the injured player’s place. Jut just remember, Fletcher, the •ards aren’t usually stacked, 'ou’ll get a good hand later on—/hieh will mean you’ll have a ood leg, too. * * • Everybody else in the Big Ten as an organiaztion so the basketall and football are conidering forming a union. At least t would be a chance to get together nd talk about the coaches just like te mentors gather and regale them■lves with the dessert known as eferee razzberry salad.” • • '• Rose Poly netters lost to Eastrn Illinois Normal at Charles--011, 111., Wednesday night- The ingineers probably didn’t know he latest steps. * * * - jIN’T it awful, Mabel! HarA. vey Snodgrass, sixth rankIng tennis player In the Tnited States, has turned professional and signed a three-year contract with a Culver City. (Cal.) tennnls club. No, this isn’t the same Snodgrass that dropped that fly and lost a world series for New .York. That was the work of an amateur, but he was getting paid good money for it. Harvey is one of the first real tennis stars of the Nation to admit he is a professional. The others pound typewriters and turn In expense accounts.

The Franklin-Purdue tilt Is one of the important State struggles of the season. Last year’s scrap, which the Baptists won in an overtime period, proved to be one of the best ever seen at Lafayette. And Purdue seeks revenge. Strong Point Makers Both clubs this season have shown amazing ability to hit the loop. Pur due ran up 49 points against De Pauw, a team which on Tuesday of this week held Indiana University’s sharpshooters to twenty points Franklin counted 49 points against Earlham in its last encounter. Each team is undefeated. And then there is lowa at Notre Dame. Even a Hoosier must admit the Hawkeyes will be under a handi cap In the South Bend contest after playing Butler tonight and then making the long trip for Friday’s tussle. Reports from lowa state Coach Barry has very promising prospects for a powerful five, and this seems to be borne out by the early scores of the lowa team, which already has as one of Its victims one of Indiana’s prides on the hardwood—Wabash. N. D. Starts Fast Notre Dame Is getting excited about Its team, which has won three games this season, Including victories over Minnesota and Northwestern. lowa will be the third Big Ten opponent, and the “Irish” followers are pulling for another triumph. The game appears to be a real test for Coach Keogan’s aggregation. Butler, on its western trip, plays lowa tonight and Lombard at Galesburg, 111., on Friday. Other State games on Friday are: Miami at Earlham, De Pauw at Evansville College, and Rose Poly at Indiana Central, University Heights, Indianapolis.
