Stirrin* the DOPE By VEDDER CARD

brating today along with J Butler. If not, why not? One of that town’s Illustrious sons delivered Tuesday night. Wakefield is the young gentleman’s name and he plays on the Butler basketball team. For some time he has been threatening to make himself known in the dizzy whirl of college basketball in this State. It begins to look as though the youth has finally ‘'arrived.” Anyway that's the way it appeared last night against Franklin. Something got into that Ben Davis lad. He fought like a wild cat in a red hot cage on the defense and his long beautifully arched shots were a picture of grace and skill—except to tile visiting team. Just what got into you, young man? Fans have been expecting something like your performance against Franklin for some time, but you always just .fell short. Maybe those long ones were just luck—but the proper form was there. And there was no doubt you put up a battle. At times you were too anxious and fouled. Perhaps you have at last got the confidence you lacked. But don’t get “puffed up” now and quit for the rest of the season. A good basketball player is that way every game. Whatever happened to you the other night—make it permanent. Then Ben Davis can celebrate with Butler after each game. ♦ • * SIIOSE who heard Blythe Hendricks announce the Butler-Franklin basketball game Tuesday night from Merchants Heat and Light Company station WFBM. for The Indianapolis Times were loud in their praises Os the way the game was handled. Congratulations were heard on every side. Hendricks followed the game so closely that as he announced a basket made the cheers of the crowd could be heard. Basketball is a fast game, but The Times man on the microphone was just as fast. He told of every shot taken whether made or not and also described the passes. The comment today was, “It was just like being there.” ♦ * * Attention, radio hugs. If you want to tupe in on the fastest sport in the category, better get WJY, 405.2 met era, Thursday r l,;ht and hear the Boston-New York hockey game at Madison Square Carden broadcast. The contest starts at 7:30 Indianapolis time.

r="jj EI4L, Wisconsin and Coach Doc Meanwell are leading Use Big Ten In the basketball race until next Monday, anyway. The Badgers beat Minnesota In the first game on the Western Conference schedule, Tuesday night. Indiana U. invades the Wisconsin camp next week. The Crimson team has a task ahead. By the way, hew did you like that first guess on the Big Ten net contests? Wisconsin to win by ten points. The score was Wisconsin, 36; Minnesota, 24. W weren’t figuring on that extra goal. Maybe the sc.orers were wrong. * * • i'ay, ffliat does tills Notre Dame basketball team mean? Don’t they win enough football games without cutting in on the hardwood sport? Home thing should be done about this. * * * SHEY want to see Red Grange out on the Pacific Coast. There doesn’t seem to be any doubt about it. Los Angeles has gone crazy about the Jp,n. 16 game. Wilson, the great Washington U. backfield star, will play against the former Illinois flash. A press dispatch states that a ticket sale at a Eos Angeles sporting goods storp brought a milling throng two blocks long. Regular customers who wanted sporting goods could not get into the store and the management threw up its hands Ip despair. The doors were closed and police were needed to disperse the crowd. Some of this may be a bit exaggerated. But if it is a publicity yarn, it’s a darn good one and won’t do any harm this far away. We are unable get away tp investigate it. * * ♦ A press dispatch says that .lack Sherry, wrestling “cham- . pion of the South” used Ids new “leg-breaker” jn a Texas bout. Wonder if this is anything like Jack Reynolds “legsplit.” My, oh my, these wrestlers are cruel! * * * l'TTntJf3T noticed a picture of I I I Casey Stengel playing LbJ tennis. There was nothing under the art which said, “What’s wrong with this picture?” so we suppose it’s on the level. Nothing surprises us anyjnore. If we saw “Strangler” Lewis with a butterfly net or Bull Mom tana doing an esthetic dance it wouldn’t make us turn a hair. These are strange days and if Casey wants to tap the tennis balls around or Babe Ruth wants to practice with a set of tiddleywinks, it’s nobody’s business. Is it? * * * Indianapolis boxing promoters might be able to get Paul Berlenba<h here. The light heavyweight champ probably wou!d\ want a small fortune, hut there is no harm in trying. Dispatches from New York state that Paul is planning a barnstorming trip shortly through tle Middle West., i

GREAT BUTLER DEFENSE STOPS FRANKLIN TEAM _ , Locals Hold Baptists to Five Field Goals —Winners Hit Long Shots —Vandivier Back in Game. A great defense turned back the Franklin onslaught Tuesday night at .the Auto Show building, State fairground, and Butler downed the Baptist baskiteers, 31 to 17. A crowd of some 3,500 watched the battle.

It was the locals’ game throughout with the exception of the first five minutes of the second period, when Franklin surprised by a sudden burst of speed and fight which carried the score, which was 17 to 7 in Butler’s favor at the half, up to 18 to 17, with the Baptists one point behind. Butler spurted at this time, however, aided by Wakefield’s long shots, and the visitors never took the lead. Franklin was ahead only at the start of the contest when Johnny Gant dropped in a long one and followed with a free throw. Nipper Ties It Nipper tied it up with one under the basket and a foul goal. Keach scored on a long one, and from then until the end the Irvington iiyo was always ahead. The Pagemen showed Iho same excellent defensive play that stopped the Missouri driving offensive, and the waves of the Franklin attack broke in vain against the human wall around the Butler basket to score only five field goals. Harker, at back guard, used splendid judgment and was aided by every man on his team. That's the secret of any defense. Chadd scurried here and there, always a thorn in the side of his opponents, while Nipper and Keach passed superbly. Butler’s Night But don’t anybody think that Franklin wasn’t out there on the floor with plenty of basketball ability. That's what made the performance of the locals more noteworthy. The visitors had a good defense also, but it was no use. Butler was "on.” The long ones were dropping through—the kind that take the heart out of the opposition. Nipper, Keach and Wakefield each scored eight points for the winners. Fuzzy Vatidiver, one of Indiana's greatest, who has been unable tf> play this year, got into the game for a while in the first half and again in the second period. The fans gave him a mighty cheer when he trotted out onto the floor. How well they remembered when Fuzzy whs the most feared man on the Hoosier courts! Not Same Fuzzy But Vandivier was hardly equal to the severe test last night. Oh, he knew how all right but he just wasn’t quite ready. He went in only to aid a team that, needed him. As the fans chpored the yoqth who in ptany battles of the past has thrilled thousands by his coolness and skill in ihe heat of terrific conflicts. a lump rose in more than one throat in that audience. Gant dribbled and pivoted in his best style but it vf as futile. Every way he turned these seemed to be a Butler man. If was the same story with Ballard. The rugged King would get the ball off the backboard and bring it down the whole length of the court but his forwards would be effectively covered. Gant made only one basket. Friddle got two, Ballard, one, and Scott, one. That was all frbm the field. CHILEAN WINS Bu United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—Stanislaus Loayza, Chilean lightweight, won a ten-pound decision from Charlie Roseq, New York, here Tuesday.

CHUCK EXPRESSES VIEWS

HUCK WIQGINS, who is considering a match with John v__J Risko of Cleveland, to figure as the headline attraction on a card being arranged by Matchmaker Goldstein of the Capital City A. C. for Tomlinson Hall Jan. 14, said today he was not surprised at the bitter insinuations being broadcast to his direction by the Cleveland 1 i.avy. “In the only decision bout between Risko and myself, at Ft. Harrison last summer, I was awarded the fight after Risko deliberately quit,” Chuck said tqday. "Fans who saw that contest will recall I had beaten the Cleveland youngster in every round up to the time he claimed the foul. Reputable physicians, after a thorough examination of Risko, declared he was not injured and was able to continue the bout. “The accident which prevented me from keeping my engagement with Risko on Sf.eve Harter’s New OPEN SEASON Badgers Beat Minnesota in First Big Ten Tilt.
