\riRRIN’ 4 the DOPE \ By VEDDER GABD

HAT a bowling tourney the yy local Elks are going to put on at the new club house alleys on March 20! National in scope, some seventy-five cities will be represented. Present reservations in the hands of secretary Henry Peachey include teams from San Francisco, Florida, Tulsa, Okla., Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Des Moines, Milwaukee, Rochester and various other cities. The team entry is expected to exceed 200. The Indianapolis Elks have started a campaign to organize fifty teams. To put the tournament across in great style Peachey has enlisted the aid of a number of boosters including Hubert S. Riley, Qus Wege, Ed Meyer, Charley Carr, Ed HoffstatJiev, N. C. King, Clarence Myers, Leo Remmetter, Harry Graff, Walter Wheeler and others. The meet will be of interest to all as many of the country’s best bowlers will compete. A great number of the nation’s leading pin getters belong to the B. P. O. E. They are Bowling People Os Excellence. • • * Sunday was the day the Ice ■hockey players wore to try out | heir sticks and skates at Ripple pool. Need we say any more. There was some talk of playing a game of water basketball instead. * * * r uHE "man with the iron I r I ' I hands” was present at thfi I I Martinsville-Shortridge bas) ketball game at the. fairground, Saturday. Many envious youths always gather around this champion applauder with many explanations as to how he does it. The object of all the attention (you'll hear him at the final State meet) just smiles and puls on his stuff which sounds all the world like a bunch of fire crackers being touched off in an empty barrel. , * * * Six bits and carfare is a little Steep for a high school net game. Tliat was the price to the general public Saturday night at the Tech-Manual fracas. (Voice from the rear row: “What do yon care, you deadhead?”) * * * r pnVPTAIN 808 ROPER, the f boxer, is appearing as a a pirate in Douglas Fairbank’s latest picture which b**t to do with bold, bad buccaneers. There have been several Captain Kidds in the local ring lately and their opponents were Jesse James’s. They were up to date their work and took the money painlessly, but they got it. “ • • * v. If a bull fighter is called a toreador. and a swimmer a natator, thep why not term a basketball player a netator? Bet there’s something YOU never thought of. ** * / While listening over the radio these evenings to Eastern ice hockey games, we sorta get the impression that this Red Green person who does such mighty deeds for the New York team must be the Fuzzy Vandivier of the congealed H2O pastime, .11 * * ET begins to look ,as though the Big Ten may have to call on Professor Dickinson and his famous, or infamous, rating system to clear up the basketball standing when the race is over. The results of Saturday contests scrambled up things considerably. Dope had been running too true to form. It just wasn’t right. So Chicago goes up to Wisconsin and gives the Badgers a beating, Ohio wins easily from Illinois, and lowa knocks of Indiana University. With so many apparently evenly, matched clubs, the Big Ten champ probably will lose several games before it is all over and there is a chance that two or three of the teams may be tied. It is hard to % say just now which they will be. The farther the season, advances I the harder it is to select one outstanding team. * * * "Major” McKee, a real radio bug, became so absorbed in listening to church services Sunday morning over the radio that when the taking of the collection was announced he absentmindedly dropped a dime into the loud speaker. * * * mHE election of James A. MacCrea of this city as a director of the National Baseball Federation at the meeting of the organization in Detroit last week' is a source of great satisfaction to the Indianapolis Amateur Baseball Association. MacCrea is treasurer of the' local body and has been an active worker in Indianapolis baseball circles for a number of years. There is no doubt but that MacCrea is a live wire, and it is hoped that by his efforts Indianapolis may get the national baseball tournament in 1927. This city is centrally located and has adequate facilities to handle such a meet. * * * Descriptive booklets Issued by railroads and steamship companies save lots of midnight oil for hard-working traveling sports experts. • • * Some wanderer sent us a poster some time ago from down in Mexico advertising a prize fight between Fast Black and Cowboy Padgett. And yet we wonder why they have so many revolutions down there. ** * . f A local sports writer was asked to define the difference between an amateur and a pro. He replied, “Well, a pro Is a guy you can pay off without going ’round in the alley.’*

HOOSIER TO PUSH EFFORTS Taylor Plans to Advance Right for Chance at Bantam Ttiie. Bu T'nited Press LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18.—Eddie Long, veteran fight manager who controls the business engagements of Bud Taylor, the “Terre Haute Terrier," now In California, announces that his charge Is ready to advance his claims for the world's bantamweight championship. F*ians are being made. Long wild, for Taylor to set up such a record of wins that the reigning champion will be forced to meet Taylor. Long was not very definite about what kind of a program he is arranging for Taylor, but Indicated he would be matched against all the leaders In the bantam division during the spring and early summer, “Taylor can lick any of them,” Long asserted. Long apparently has analyzed Taylor’s greatest fault. Always a flashy boxer, the Terre Haute boy has been popular throughout his five years in the ring. He has shown enough class In every fight to earn him a right to meet champions, but some vital spark has been missing. Taylor has had a habit of swarming all over his opponents in the early rounds and then settling back to defensive tactics when a little more drive would bring knockouts^ SANGOR VS.
