—J—I CHEDUL.BS for the Indiana I Q | high school basketball re--1 I gional tourneys and final championship play will be draten next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock In the Claypool Hotel. The pairings will show just what sectional winners play each other in the regionals and how the final meet will stack up. Then it will be time for the dopesters to get busy.' Right now, theoretically, every club in the association has a chance as each one plays in the sectional. It is the survival or the fittest—one loss and it is all over until next year. To those wjio believe the drawls "fixed,” and there are always some who make such claims, we wish to say that they are mistaken. The sixty-four sectional centers are written on slips of paper. Those assigned to a certain regional are taken from the list and put into a hat /and drawn out. The same procedure is gone through with to ascertain the final schedule. We KNOW this is tlje way it is done because we saw the draw last year and will be there again along (with other newspaper men ahd press association representatives. * r=T-|ERSISTENCE wins. That I I-* I is one of the copy book I I 1 maxims that holds true part of the time at least. Discouragement just makes some folks tight all the harder. Williams, the long, lanky backguard of Manual High School, who grabbed the ball off the backboard against Tech last Satand started it down the floor to his teammates, went to Technical at one time. Williams knew he could play the old game and he was very determined. When the East side school did not think he was good enough he still believed in himself. The long boy transferred to Manual last winter. Saturday night he showed Technical' that the school had lost a mighty good back guard. \ * * * E"""l VERY time Purdue basketbailers think they have something “soft” ahead they get a shock. Tljere doesn't seem to be any such teams in the Big Ten. Just before the Boilermakers played Northwestern the Purple team held Michigan to a two-point victory. Purdue goes to Chicago on Wednesday. The Maroons looked like a set-up until they surprised everybody by defeating Wisconsin on the Badgers’ own floor. Now the Boilermakers are slightly worried. Purdue never thought I. U. was easy, but there is food for Thought in that 39-to-31 score Monffay night. ' The Crimson defeated Northwestern at Evanston by a bigger score than Purdue was able to run up on the Lafayette floor. • • • In tills Wonderland of basketball the Carpenter sometimes lias a word to say. We beard him tell the Walrus (while talking of Ships and Shoes and Sealing Wax), that the press boxes at the Exposition Bldg., State fairground, would be up in the rafters this year at the high school net tourneys. Please put in plenty of braces, Mr. Carpenter, and build tile ladder strong.

mVns Big: Ten basketball race is very much of f\ fifty-fifty proposition so far. The defeat of Michigan by Illinois Mon-j day night put six teams in a tie for first place. That’s fair enough. Northwestern and Minnesota are the under dogs, each having lost three games and won none-. Indiana University' has played four games, the most any team j has iferticipated in to date. The . Crimson has won two and lost two. Purdue, the other Hoosier representative, is one of those tied for first place. The Boilermakers can go into undisputed leadership by defeating Chicago on Wednesday. The standing: Won. Lost. Pot. Purdue 2 1 .007 Michigan 2 1 .007 Illinois 2 ' t .007 Ohio Stato 2 1 .007 lowa . 2 1 .007 Wisconsin ” 1 .007 Indiana 2 2 .000 Chicago . 1 1 .500 Northwestern 0 3 .000 Minnesota . 0 3 .000 • • • A" l_ COLLEGE basketball coach said the other night, “I—wish 1 could get some of my players pepped up for examinations like I do for the games.” There are many just like that one. Right now is the crucial time for many\of the nettefs In this State aa exams loom ahead forebodfhgly. Carefree youth refuses tqr worry while the coaches stf w^and^fret. • * * Ernie Nevers, all-American foot,ball star from the Pacific Coast, is to enter Wisconsin University to finish his college course according to a story from Madison. He will be nearer the center of things in professional football. Smart , youth! * * * UTLER basketball players will make up in good measure for the lapse in the schedule the remainder of this month. After £he court vacation -there will be plenty of action. Another game has been scheduled with the City College of Detroit on Jan. 30. That’s on Saturday. On Monday Michigan Aggies are played and on Tuesday University of Chicago. But that’s not all, oh no. On Friday Wisconsin is on the j schedule, followed by Marquette on Saturday. Then, after resting Sunday and Monday, Wabash is on ,the bilX-at Crawfordsville on Tues : day, Feb. 9. How’s that for a fast and furious net campaign? Six .contests In eleven days, including two Sundays—and every one away from home!
