TIRRIN 7 the DOPE ByVEDDER GARD

IOYD HICKMAN' of Technical High School ought to i_ be ashamed of himself, treating Vincennes in such fashion. The Green and White basketball player used to live in the Southern Indiana city. In fact, he got his first basketball inspiration from Coach Adams of Vincennes on the freshman team down there. Later the youth moved to Indianapolis. Friday night he led the Tech team to victory on the Vincennes floor with five field goals and three from the foul line for thirteen of the winners’ 32 points. And by the way, that “victory brick” heard so much about by local net fans, but never seen, is in Tech’s possession until tonight, anyway. Tech had a chance at it in the Muncie game, but couldn’t quite snatch it from the Bearcats. Then Vincennes got it by an overtime victory last Saturday over Muncie. The Alices were forced to pass it along, however, Friday night. Now Technical is worried for fear it will lose the trophy on the way home. The locals have to pass through Bedford tonight. And that town is called the Stone City. They could use one brick there however, and will make strenuous efforts to that end. * * * , „ JIIY is it that anew race track generally runs into J bad weather? Tampa got more rain Friday, when a heavy thunderstorm hit that section in the morning and a steady drizzle continued all through the afternoon. The turf fans picked out the mudders, however, and five favorites and two second choices rewarded their backers. Monday Morning, a superior mudder, paid only thirty cents on the dollar. Thirty cents is better than nothing, however. At New Orleans, Skivesdale, in the fifth, was backed down to that price and finished second. * * • It is said by those who have seen him play tliat Fisher, sophomore center of Northwestern, is one of the greatest pivot men in the Big Ten. * * * rZT3HILE every one is talking \X/ about Tech and its victory * T over Vincennes don't forget Manual. That club is plugging right along and Friday night defeated South Side of Ft. Wayne. It was a case of two south side teams doing battle. Harmeson of the locals oriented his sights east and west (the way the gym floor runs) and tossed in nine baskets, thereby sending Ft. Wayne northward, back home, defeated. * * * Butler Basketball team won at Franklin Friday night by forty minutes of sustained effort. The Irvington five set a terrific pace in the last tweni y minutes and kept on going at a clip which seemed beyond human endurance. That, in a nutshell, is the story of the locals’ triumph.

mEREMIAH STROKE of Butler University and Kirkland, Ind.. got his gold medal two year** ahead of time. Friday night he really earned it. The long youth is a senior. In his freshman year he did not go out for baseball. Asa sophomore he was taken along to Kansas City for the national A. A. U. tourney, when A1 Barker developed a ease of mumps.' Butler won the national title and eight gold medals were given the- players. St role got one of them for sitting on the bench. In Jerry’s junior year he was the third string guard, with Colway and Harker the regulars. Friday night' Strole got his big chance in one of the feature contests of the year. It was largely his playing that enabled Butler to defeat Franklin. The big fellow tossed in four long field goals for eight points. His work on the., defense was equally high class. According to Buffer coaches Strole was held responsible for only two baskets scored by Franklin. Jeremiah waited a long time to be a basketball hero, but he is of the type that never gives up trying. He got his medal two, years ago and earned it Friday night. * * + Connersville High School seems to specialize in overtime contests. ®lae last effort along these lines was a one-point victory over Morton of Richmond Friday night. A foul goal decided the battle, 37 to 36, in favor of the Spartans. A few more like that and Coach Pruitt will be gray-haired. * * * OHF “oldest inhabitants” are shaking their heads over this Big Ten basketball race. Tt is an “even-Stephen” affair with five teams tied with .500 percentage. Basketball is becoming more generally played in all sections. It is becoming a major sport everywhere. That accounts for the improvement in play of all sections. Coaches pick up good points from other teams and use them. Football went through the same process and now all parts of the country are about equal in knowledge of the sport. This is one reason for the terrifle competition and tiie closeness •of the race in the Western conference. In the first place coaches are learning more about the game and in the second place more attention is paid to the sport and its possibilities. * i * SHE new tax reduction bill is expected to be signed the President on next Friday or Saturday. It is of great interest to sport promoters who, under the old law, were forced to pay 10 per cent on admissions of more than 50 cents. The new law will retain the 10 per Cent feature, but will exempt admissions of 75 cents and under.

H. S. BASKET DOPE TANGLED AS TOURNEY TIME APPROACHES

ILLINOIS NETTERS IN LEAD Indiana 4 U’ Nosed Out by Point —Three Big Ten Games Tonight. Bu Times .S' nr rid I BLOOMINGTON. Ind.. Feb. 20. Indiana University bas,ket hopes got a serious set-back here Friday night when Illinois “U” nosed out the Crimson in a Big Ten game, 21 to 20.

Northwestern invades lowa City for a battle with the Hawkeyes; Purdue meets Wisconsin at Madison, and Michigan meets Ohio State in the Buckeye camp.

What They’re Saying

Wonder if all the cheer leaders passed their semester examinations? Basketball follows football so closely nowadays the yell bustlers are hard put to escape the faculty’s menacing eye. * * * And what has become of Shorty Buj'ch, tile Indians’ yell leader? He's been scarce since his pugilistic entry and exit. Somebody said Shorty went to What Cheer, lowa, to await the baseball season. * * * If Indianapolis only will hurry and reaifh that million goal maybe all those cops dismissed from the force recently will get jobs after all. * * * Wonder what new stunts the gate crashers will think up over the weekend? There's Another boxing show Monday night. * * * New stunts can hardly equal last winter’s best when two of the “boys” crashed the gate on a half pint bottle filled with water after giving a doorman, a whiff of “mule,” and then switching bottles.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Tech and Anderson Leap Into Contender Class — Other Close Battles. The so-called dopesters who follow Indiana’s great sport of high school basketball today had plenty of material to keep them busy during the coming week, trying to figure just which of any number of teams in the State is the stronger. Instead of giving the fans something on which to base predictions as tourney trine draws near, Friday night’s games made the muddle even more tangled. Probably the most surprising thing about the v hole affair was the four-

Next in the kingdom of upsets rules the victory of Andersdn over Bedford on the home court of the Stone City outfit. The score was Anderson, 41; Bedford, 39.

French Net Aces Jolt Yanks 81l United Press NEW YORK, Feb, 20.— Americas supremacy on tho tennis court, so pronounced for tho last six years, has suffered a blow In tho defeat of William Tilden, Vinnio Richards fine Frank Hunter in the quarter-final round of tho national Indoor championships. The surprising sweep which sent the French team—Rone La Coste, Jean Borotra and Jacques Brugnon into the semi-finals and made a Frenchman ail almost certain winner of the championship, does not mean that all Is lost. However, It does indicate the day may not be far removed when France will !>e tho rnnkI ing tennis nation of tho world. Borotra beat Tilden, 13 to 11 and 6 to 3, beca.uso he played bettor and smarter tennis, and La Coste scored over Richards, 6 to 4 and 6 to 2, because he out-classed the New York youngster. Hunter fell before Brugnon, 6 to 4 and 6 to 4, for the same combination of reasons. Perhaps It would be better not to view the future with alarm Until the same players meet again next week In the International team matches. But if tho American players do succeed In getting revenge, the concern for the future will not he removed. The victories of La Coste and Borotra were not those of obscure players. Thev are two of the greatest youngsters in the game. They are coining. Tilden and Richards may be gojng.

Purdue held only one workout following tho Chicago game here Wednesday, und in it foul tossing was stressed. Krratlo heaving on free throws has been responsible for at. lciist two defeuts suffered by the Boilermakers. It Is probable Purdues regular lineup, which calls for Neuman and Captain Spradllng at forwards, Cramer at center and Wilcox and Wright at guards, will open against the Badgers, but there Is a chance that Wheeler or Taube may start tho game as a running mate to tho Purdue captain.
