\riRRIN’ I the DOPE (■By VEDDER GABD

HOW TIMES DO CHANGE! r~“| ROM the Frankfort High I k I School annual, The Cauldron, f * I we glean the following: ••V. H. S. did not until this year adopt basketball as a form of athletics, and hence the students are not wanned up to the possibilities of the game as they should be. "We admit that from the viewpoint of other schools we did not put up much of a game, but from our own viewpoint, when we consider the fact that we did not have a good ‘gym,’ that the game was new to the fellows and hence had to be leached from the beginning, that we were unable to secure the best material because of delinquencies, we think we have had a fairly good season. "Although the loss of Tlcen, Sherlden and Derrick will be keenly felt, we are hopeful for a great and successful season next year.” The personnel of the team: Sheridan and C. Sheets, forwards; Anderson and Haggard, center; Ticen and R. Sheets, guards; Cave and Holland, substitutions. You have no doubt guessed by this \tlme that this was not last year’s annual, but was the issue of 1912, back in the days when Frankfort was but. a stripling when it came to basketball. •tart ling changes come about as her Time rambles right along. Back in 1912, Frankfort had a football team and John Redmon, who later starred with Indiana University and is now athletic coach at Peru (Ind.) High School, is reported to have made a sensational run in a game against Noblesville with five men hanging on. Just what will the next fourteen years bring? Will basketball still b# king of high school sports or will some game little known now ascend the throne and some team almost unheard of wield fire scepter? Nothing is permanent in this life. • * • Wen, the Riviera street car conductors can go ahead now and hold their mass meeting to discuss the strike situation. They postponed the gathering on account of the excitement of the Lengten-Wills tennis match. The Americans uUI be walking anyway. ( • * f' 'JT7T: other day we spoke of [Tj Franklin College not havLJL ’ ing to worry a great deal about the years to come on the basketball court If Its freshmen remained in school. The same may be said of/Wabash. The Scarlet first year netters looked good Monday night in their game at Franklin. The starting lineup Included of Muncie and Bowen Hw Ligonier, forwards; Harblson of Russellville, center; Adams of Anderson, and Taylor of Muncie, guardsu Fix of Shelbyville also played at floor guard. Bayer of Linton at center and Henderson of Hillsboro at forward. Others on the trip were Brooks erf Louisville, Oren of Stoneycreek and Fisher of Ligonier. Brooks is the brother of the Wisconsin University basketball captain. It Just naturally runs in the family. The Badger leader and brother went to Male High School, Louisville. Adams was a Dead-eye Dick Monday nigh* on side shots at the net. He appears to have plenty of natural ability. Thornburg. weUremembered in high school basketball, still can dribble. Fix also Is a fine dribbler. Taylor, also of Muncie, is a husky chap, 'Who handles himself well at back guard. He Is plenty tough, but not a bit awkward with his ut: angth. He needs a li t,t ie more height. Bowen at forward and Harblson at center handled the ball well. Bayer, a big blond youth, appeared to be a fighter and is likely to be heard from In future years. Freeh men teams always are Interesting. They arouse so much speculation as one looks into the future and estimates the possibilities of the youths. Home of them will fall back as the competition grows keen while others will thrive on it. W gome of those Wabash and Franklin boys will meet each other on the varsity In seasons to come. Just which ones it is hard to say. Something inside one man takes him to the top while another with equal ability does not maio the grade. • • * Tampa, seems to be the ‘black sheep” in Florida. The people whA want to run the affairs of everyone else seem plentiful in th.it city. An injunction has been obtained from the County Circuit Court restraining the West Coast Jockey Club from operating its race meeting which was to start on Thursday. An appeal is to be made to the State Supreme Court. • • • Those professors who got into Coach Mather’s Michigan basketball orchard anil plucked a Cherry, surely played the dickens with any championship dreams. The Wolverines apparently have faded from the Big Ten picture as title possibilities since defeats by lowa and Minnesota. -* * • C*— ““"IOACH GEORGE VEENKER of Emerson High School, i__J Gary, Ind., has not lost a football game to an Indiana opponent for five years.

BUTLER IN TWO AWAY-FROM-HOME FEATURE GAMES THIS WEEK

SUZANNE ANNEXES LAURELS (Continued From Page 1) she pulled herself together and took the lead by winning the fourth and fifth games at love. The American girl rallied again and took the seventh game, but Mile. Lenglen then ran out the first set, 6-3, with a point score of 30 to her opponent’s 17. Thql break in fortune that gave Mile. Den glen the first set obviously strengthened her faith, but the loss had no visible effect upon Miss Wills. Gallery in Frenzy She fought even harder in the second set and had the gallery in a frenzy at one time when she had a lead of five to *• -but she- lacked the balance and the control of her opponent and could not win the deciding game. The pluck that Mile. Lenglen displayed In coming from behind to win the sec and match disproved any belief that she is only a “front runner.” Fireworks and dramatics marked the finish of the concluding set. Mile. Lenglen became furious when the umpire overruled a decision of the linesman that enabled Miss Wills to deuce the match at 6-6. The blood rushed to her face and she shot an angry glance, toward George Hillyard, the British umpire. She mumbled something under her breath and looked to the gallery for sympathy. She seemed to be on the point of retiring then suddenly rushed back to her position, started smashing the ball with angry ferocity and overwhelmed the young American. Miss Wills was very tired when she left the court and was troubled with a slight nose bleed. ' Mrs. C., A. Wills, mother of the defeated girl, presented the Lady Wavetree cup to the winner and the Duke of Connaught presented the several other trophies that were ofTENNIS PLAY Anderson Only Seeded Player Defeated in Meet. Bv United Preen NEW YORK, Feb. 16.—'With only two minor eliminations in the first, round, the leading stars continued here today in the second and third , rounds of the national indoor tennis championships. Fred C. Anderson, runner-up in the nationals last year, was the only seeded player eliminated in the first round. William Tilden, Vincent Richards, Frank Hunter, Rene La Coste, Jean Borotra and Jacques Brugnon remain in the play.

What They’re Saying

The man with the bandaged thumb may not have received the bruise firing the furnace. More than likely he haw been participating In the city bowling tournament. Well, at any rate, the long-awaited women's tennis match disclosed the fact that Helen Wills has dimpled knees. Dispelling a rumor before the clash that she had a disabled underpin, Helen bravely rolled down a stocking and displayed a dimpled knee which bore no bruise. After that knee episode, Suzanne evidently felt some Jealousy, ’cause she said she hoped the match would be over "as quickly and as painlessly as possible.” Huzzy talked as though she would have liked to have performed an operation to remove Helen’s dimples. Sidney Glick fought in Cleveland Monday night and beat Pep O’Brien, Scranton. (Cleveland scribes referred to Sidney "as the lightweight with the saxophone nose.” MINNESOTA SURPRISES l-'-lj Gophar, Rnay TOlmuct, Over Michigan Five. Bv United Preee MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 16.—Minnesota dealt the University of Michigan’s basketball team’s championship hopes a severe blow by winning, 28 to 17, here Monday night. It was the second victory of the year for the lowly Gophers and a surprise defeat for the Wolverines. Minnesota led throughout, following a 15 to 2 advantage at the half. SHORTSTOP~Is SIGNED Chicago White Sox Get Coast Leaguer in Trade. Bv Timee Special CHI( AGO, Feb. 16. Another shortstop candidate has been added to the White Sox roster. Bill Hunnefleld has been secured by the Sox from the Portland club of the Pacific Coast League in return for Pitcher Leo Mangum, Outfielder Roy Elsh and some cash.

sered. Miss Wills stood by smiling graciously when Mile. Lenglen was crowned with a wreath of flowers and borne off on the shoulders of her admirers. The decision which caused the controversy was made on a ball which the linesman called an out and which apparently ended the set In Mile. Lenglen’s favor at 7-5. The umpire, however, ruled that the ball was inside, and the point went to Miss Wills, who then deuced the set. Mile. Lenglen carried her attack against the weakness that all the critics had picked out In the American girl’s game—her lack of speed afoot. Miss Wills had to chase so much around the court that sY\o was limping in the second set and seemed to be hampered by a weak knee. She suffered a slight cut on one knee when she fell during her semifinal match yesterday. FIVEMBOLUS AT I. A. C. Members of Local (JCub Entertained With Fight Program.

CHICAGO INVADES PURDUE Strong Maroon Defense Has Task Ahead Wednesday to Stop Boilermakers. Bv Time* Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., Feb. 16.—The University of Chicago basketball team, looked upon as the best defensive combination In the Western Conference, Invades Memorial gymnasium Wednesday night for a return game with Coach Lambert’s Purdue quintet. Only the stalwart playing of the Purdue captain, Spradling, turned the tide of victory toward Purdue In the first game between the schools, on the midway. The Boilermaker leader, far to the front In scoring lif the Big Ten, will be a marked man against the Maroons. However, guarding Spradling will not be the only big job for the Chicago guards, as Wilcox, Wilson and Neuman are dangerous at all times, as was demonstrated In the spectacular clash with Indiana here last Saturday night, which Purdue won in the closing seconds on a basket by Wilson. Cramer's basket eye has been somewhat erratic of late, but he may take the Maroon tilt as a start toward more and better shots. Hanging on the outside rim of the Conference title chase, Purdue needs a victory over Chicago to retain Its precarious perch. Another severe test will be given Lambert’s team on next Saturday night, when it goes to Wisconsin for the first game of the season between the two schools.
