mUST what kind of a defense has. Coach Norgren of Chicago devised? The way the Maroofi basketball team holds the opposition is little short of marvelous. The Chicago club furnished the upset of Saturday night by defeating Illinois, 19 to 14. The team never makes many points, but its opponents make less. Norgren’s men have won two and lost two by scoring a total of only 66 points, an average of 16 % points a game. Opponents have made 71 points, an average of 1754 points a game. The Maroons must hypnotize the opposition or close up the hoop. But while they are keeping rivals away from the net they ( fail to count themselves. Indiana and Purdue are the exact opposite. They pile up the score and so do their opponents. I. U. leads the Big Ten in scoring with 162 points, an average of '32 1-5 points a game, but foes have garnered 165 points, an average of 33 points a game. Purdue has scored an average of 30 points a game, but permitted opposing clubs an average of 27 4-5 points. In the first ten leading scorers of the Western Conference the Hoosier representatives have six player’s. Spradling of Purdue gratis with 59 points. Krueger o>f I. 11. is second with 49 and Sibley of I. U. third with 48. Neuman of Purdue is seventh, Beekner of I. U., eighth and Cramer of Purdue, ninth. Now if Boilermakers and Crimson could just mix in a little of that Chicago defense what clubs they would have! The contrast is startling. The State schools are too busy making points to stop their opponents from scoring; Chicago is tbo busy watching its opponents to make any points for itself. There Is a's happy medium somewhere. • • * O'-'—'ILD MOTHER NATURE has a way of putting humans back In their place when they boast too much about the climate. Southern France, the land of sunshine and balmy breezes, Is the latest to feel the stem rebuke of the old dame. And It takes sport events to let the world know that it rains and gets cold even on the Riviera.* Nice is not always nice. Sunday the Grand Prix de Nice, a steeplechase worth 150,000 francs, was run In a chilly rain while fashion’s favorites shivered and got their finery bedraggled. At Cannes the find.! tennis match between Helen Wills and Mile. Vlasto was postponed because of rain and cold. At Dallas, Tex., a light snow covered the links and the final thirty-six" holes of the Dallas open ■ golf tourney was postponed. '* * • P Coach Blood of Passaic, N. J. High School fame is finding the going a little harder in collegiate circles. His Army net five lost Saturday night to Pennsylvania by one point, 32 to 31. The Pennsy team is not the best in the East by any means. * * *

| ,VER hear the Butler college I ti'J e t uartet ’ H you are a l-TTt 4 . basketball fan you’d be surprised at these song birds. Three of them are net performers —Keach, Nipper and Harker. The fourth member Is Henderson. And who do you think sings tenor? Nobody else but Keach, the huskiest one of the gang. And who do you suppose sings bass? Nobody else but Harker, ha lier slight of frame, but deep of voice. The quartet really can sing. That’s the surprising part of it. They warbled for the Sigma Delta Chi college Journalists and mad® quite a hit. They also broadcast some of their selections from WFBM, local radio station. Quite versatile young men, those stars of song and sport. •• * “ > [ q iCEIBES In various parts I lof the State are busy U I now showing how their respective Wgh school clubs are going to get to the finals at the * fairground In March. > Not to be outdone we want to tell the Hoosier State to beware of Manual. If the Red and White can win the local ■sectional it may surprise at "Monde by defeating the winner of the Anderson sectional. If It does this a real task Is ahead to down the I.eba non sectional victor. Manual has a chance against Anderson and Lebanon. This is no idle boast. Now say we don’t stand. up for Indianapolis teams. • • • SHE dopesters around this city hit the nail right on the head in the IndianaPurdue basketball game. The "smart” boys were willing to “give” three points on the Crimson. The contest ran very true to form. Every one believed that the score would be well up In the thirties with a narrow margin separating the two clubs as the gun sounded. The net gets plenty of swishing with those two Hoosler outfits stepping on the gas. * * * . I NEW name hag bobbed up along with Shaughnessy of ■ i ill Tulane In the rumors concerning the football coach at Indiana University to succeed Bill Tngram, who resigned. The latest Is O. M. Solem, former Minnesota player, who has been having considerable success at Drake University, Des Moines, lowa. * * * RAIN and mud, bugbears of horse racing, have been do- — ing their worst at the Fair |prounds meeting in New Orleans. PWTth half of the forty-day program run off, a fast track has prevailed on only three days. The meeting terminates on Feb, 1G and everyone connected with the racing Is hoping that the sun will get in some good licks before the meeting is over. Enough rain has ’ fallen to last all winter.

HELEN WILLS’ PLANS POINTED TOWARD WINNING AT WIMBLEDON

GRAHAM AWARDED TITLE GO Utica Bantam to Meet Champ Rosenberg in New March 19. Bu Times Special ‘NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—Bushy Gra-‘ ham, Utica bantamweight boxer, has been rpatched to meet Charlie Rosenberg In a world’s championship bout at Madison Square Garden March 19. Rosenberg,' who has avoided defending the title which he won from Cannonball Martin last year, has been ordered by the New York State boxing commission to box Graham or relinquish his championship. Graham, who Is known in New York as .Mickey Garde, will go into the ring a favorite over the reluctant champion. Bushy administered a sound and convincing defeat to California Joe Lynch in the 1 Garden last Friday. Lynch previousjy had beaten Rosenberg In a no-decision bout on the Pacific Coast. The' Utica bantam is a showy fighter of the dancing type, but packs a wallop in either hand and Is willing to mix it when necessary. His general style of attack is to weave and bob about at long range, hands held low, after the Slattery manner, puzzling an opponent by speed and footwork until an opening presents Itself. Rosenberg Is a different type of fighter, one of the burly, bustling, busy sort, who should be easy for Bushy if th<3 Utica boy can withstand a few rounds of rough and tumble fighting.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Yankee Girl’s Aim Is to Be Best in World’s Net Title Tourney. HELEN TAKES HONORS Bu United Press CANNES, Jan. 25.—Miss Helen Wills, American woman’s tennis champion, today won the Metropole invitational tournament .title by defeating Mile. Vlasto of France, 6-3, 7-5, In the finals. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jan. “25.—1n starting her second foreign invasion, Helen Wills has lived up to every ideal that could have been entrusted to her as an American tennis champion. Asa tennis player, she bravely tackled terrific odds and as a young woman she has endeared herself to the French people, who do not always take kindly to strangers. On the tennis court she faced the disadvantages of strange light, unfamiliar courts and a foreign ball, and in public she withstood an ordeal that the shock-proof Molla Slallory hardly could have Restrained her temper against. Merely Ordinary Now Although she did not lose a set that led to the winning of her first tournament at Cannes, she did not overwhelm in Lenglenesque fashion. The rather ordinary way in which she went through the matches convinced many Frenchmen sjj,e hasn’t/ a chance against Mile. Lenglen, and it apparently has caused some concern In this country. But this much should be remernd bered: If Miss Wills should be beaten every time she meets Mile. Lenglen In the Riviera tournaments, she will be the world's champion if she defeats the French star at Wimbledon. Wimbledon was • the main goal of the young champion when she sailed and apparently she is working with only Wimbledon In view. There is no doubt she could have won more love sets than she did In the Metropole tourney, but there is little to be gained by humiliating and overwhelming a weak opponent. Re-1 Test Later The British Championship tournament on Wimbledon’s turf courts will be the real test. Although the United States Tennis Associations refuses to admit it, the Wimbledon championship is the real world’s championship for women as the American tournament has very little international representation. Taking her game slowly and methodically, Alias Wills ought to De in the greatest form of her career at Wimbledqn and there Is one thing quite certain —if she should be beaten two or three times in France by Mile. Lenglen she will notbe Intimidated when she goes to England.

MAY LAY OFF RAH, RAH BOYS College Authorities to Ask That Majors Stay Away From Youths. Bu United Press NEW YORK,.Jan. 26.—Following the agitation started to build a wall between college and professional football that could not be scaled, officials of the college athletic associations reasoned that there were some things about college baseball worth deploring. The result was that CommissloneLandis, who is master over all professional baseball, will be asked to place the college diamond out of bounds for the professional scouts and leave the college boys alone. If there were any thoughts ln their minds that a painful situation would result, they ivere mistaken, because the majority of the major league club owners surprised them with the sentiment —“We’re for that too!” Few Good Ones Eddie Collins, George Sisler and Frank Frisch, grew out of a college uniform, but they are the exceptions and there are ten for everyone of them, who proved a total loss to their purchasers. College players, when the market is good, can get a bonus of from $5,000 to $7,000 for signing a contract and they do not want to play in the minor leagues. After finding that they haven’t the experience to make good ln fast company they retire from the game and the Investment becomes a total loss. Recent Development Some managers like John McGraw and Connie Mack always have kept thefr eyes on the college diamonds, but it was only in recent years that any general or concerted invasion was made. There never will be a way. however. of keeping a college boy, who wants to play professional baseball from doing so. v The worst offenders against any ethics that there might be In tampering with college stars are not the major league club owners. They are the rrtanagej-s of semi-pro and independant teams. TWO LOOPS Wisconsin and Mid-West Leagues Organized.
