TIRRIN’ the DOPE ■ By VEDDER GARD

SHERE were a number of exceptionally good centers at the State final basketball tourney last year, and it appears as though the same thing will be true again this season. Almost everV team has a tall, rangy youth at the pivot position. Murphy of Marlon is the tallest. Schultz of Frankfort is a close second. It is doubtful if any of them can get off the floor much higher than Red Eastwood of Evansville, who is tall and leaps far into the air. He jumps center, then drops back to a guard position under the net, while Grabert, another big fellow, takes up the scoring duties. There are likely to be some great battles between centers. Many words of praise for Secrist of Newcastle liave drifted this way. He will jump against Eastwood in a first-round game. Secrist, however, is a scorer and Red a defensive man. Schultz of Frankfort is another of the beanpole type. If Frankfort downs Aurora, Schultz and either Secrist or Eastwood will start hostilities from the little ring in the middle of the floor. Aurora also has a star in C. Driver, who piles in plenty of points. Marion and Frankfort meet in BRe semi-finals, It will be Schultz against Murphy, two of the tallest centers in the State. The referee probably will have to get a ladder. We must not forget Whitaker nf Martinsville. He is a good jumper, but not as tall as some of the others. He is a fine allround player, with few equals in Indiana- Bedford also has a b g man in Coyle, who has a world of “drive." Benson of Logansport also is good for more than his share of points. Some of the others we do not know about may be as good as the ones mentioned here. It looks as though that center job will be well taken care of in the final championship play.

ALL-CONFERENCE FIVE By Stanley Foozle Forwards Berkner Indiana Spradling I’urdue Center Doyle ... Michigan Guards Hoerger Chicago McConnell lowa

f'yiTANLEY FEEZLE, Big Ten I Conference basketball ofIi fleial has picked for The Times the above all-Conference ■ve, based on his close observation "f the players in the games in which he has ofllciated. No one is any better qualified to select the outstanding stars of the Big Ten than Feezle, who has officiated in twenty Western Conference contests during the past season. “Stan” is well known as a close student of the net pastime, and his “pick” is entitled to rank as authoritative, being the result of first-hand information. In other words, he "seen 'em with his own eyes.” , In furnishing The Times with his selections, Feezle, in characteristic fashion, observes: “These five men showed the best offense and defense, are good passers and smart players. Any one who says this isn’t the best all-Conference five is crazy.” Which should settle the matter. • • * Tickets for the final basketball tournament at the Exposition Bldg., State fairground, on Friday and Saturday are going fast. They are on sale at all sporting goods stores downtown. Better get your ducat now. Tickets are SI each for Friday and Saturday all-day sessions. * * • mT had to come sooner or later. We have had the “Phantom Finn,” and the “Galloping Ghost.” Some sports kvriter w q# sure to hit on an appropriate name for Hoff, the sensational Norwegian athlete. We give our vote at once to whoever it was that coined the expression the “Vaulting Viking.” Tonight in Madison Square Garden, New York, at the K. of C. indoor carnival, there will be swarmj of athletes. But there will be super-stars in distinctive attire to stand out above the rest. In special uniforms so that the spectators will be enabled to Identify them easily, Hoff, Osborn and Norton wall be the center of all eyes in their special seven-event all-round competition. The events will prove which of the three is the greatest all-round athlete in the world. Who wants to argue about that? • * * .y, HAZIS? Whazis? The amayU teurs are warning the ama_LJ teurs to let the amateurs alone. My gosh! Big Ten athletic directors have started a campaign to defend athletes from noncollege amateur athletic organizations as well as from professional sport promoters. Western Conference officials have sent President Hurley of the A. A. U. a letter asking that organization to take the same stand that pro football interests did in forbidding the signing of college players before they finished school. . Amateur athletic clubs operating under the A. A. U. have been signing athletes in college, according to the Big Ten directors, who said the athletes should be given a chace to finish their studies before bothering with outside interests. This is a good one on the A. A. IT. It almost forces us to laugh. Get together, amateurs—purest of the pure. Let your actions speak toote? than your questionnaires.

TRIBE OPENS GINGER JAR ON FIRST DAY AT HOT SPRINGS CAMP

ALTE IS ENTITLED TO EDGE Local Boxer Gets in Solid Wallops to Beat Smith— No Dull Moments. There was not a dull moment in the National A. C. boxing show Monday night at Tomlinson Hall in which Merle Alte of this city had the edge over Harold Smith, Chicago featherweight, in the main go of ten rounds. Alte, going in his best form, was entitled to the verdict over the shifty, smart Smith. Both boys ap parently were trying and the bout was thoroughly enjoyed by the crowd. Merle seems to be getting away from some of his wild swinging and rushing, but has not lost his aggressiveness. If he fought Smith a few more times Alte might be entirely cured of his crouching habit. The Chicago boy socked in uppercuts every time Alte dropped into a crouch and also got in some telling body blows. There was not a great deal of difference between the two, but Alte’s solid smashes to the head earned him the verdict. The local mauler piled up his winning points in the early rounds. Thereafter It was fairly even. The veteran Frankie Jones, Louisville, middleweight, earned a shade over Kepner of this city in spite of plenty of exqess avoirdupois about the waist line. Jones’ wind seemed to bo good in spito of the fat and he did not tire in the eight rounds. The last four rounds belonged to the Kentucky batttler. He oubboxed Kepner, who found Fra'nkie hard to hit. Jones’ left hand won for him. Royal Cox had a decided edge over I.arry Pruitt. They are featherweights of this city. Cox won the first six rounds while Pruitt had the last two. Pruitt haj-dly touched Royal in the first part of the fight and ran into a shower of left jabs. Neither boy hurt the other much. Jackie Stewart, Louisville bantam, won over “Cafeteria” Cappadora of Indianapolis by a technical knockout in the sixth round of a scheduled six-round bout. Cappadora took a good beating. In a four-round prelim Jackie Coble defeated Tommy Kane. The loser was game and stood quite a bit of punishment. They are local boxers. STAR H. S. PLAYER ILL Harvey, Sheridan, Back Guard, in Serious Condition at Home. Bu Times Special SHERIDAN, Ind., March 16. Beeson Harvey, back guard, for the Sheridan High School basketball squad, and a star player, is seriously ill at the home of his parents here with the flu and rheumatism. He also is suffering from an infected heel, the result of an injury sustained in the sectioned at Tipton.

HARRIS OPTIMISTIC OVER WASHINGTON’S CHANCES ‘Bucky’ Believes in Veterans and Thinks He Has Strengthened Club by Acquisition of Bush and Tobin.

By Henry 1,. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent TAMPA, Fia., March 16.—Washington will have to win another American League pennnant this season or break the heart and bank roll of the entire city of Tampa. Those who haven’t the time, take the time, to go to the ball park and show their claim to a personal connection with the team by adressing the players by their first name. Harris, who is ranked socially as one of the first citizens, feels sure that his team will deliver without too much exertion. “No other team in the league has been improved any more than Washington, and if we won last year against a tough opposition, why should we fail this year?” he asks. Team Strengthened The young manager of the Senators figures that his team has been greatly strengthened by the addition of Joe Bush and Johnny Tobin, and by a marked improvement in the batting and fielding of Joe Harris. He laughs off the opinion of the critics who have visited his camp that the veteran pitchers will not deliver as they did last year. When Harris traded Tom Zachary and Winn Ballou to the St. Louis Browns for Bush and Tobin, the wise birds said that George Sisler had put one over on him, but Harris contends that Tobin will be one of his best outfielders this year. “Joe Harris is anew ball player,” Bucky said. “He has been playing since the war with one eye, as a result of a bayonet wound he got DUNDEE-HARMON BOUT Welters Matched for Garden Scrap— Slattery-Sfribling, March 25.

The winner is to be matched with Micky Walker, provided the title-holder defeats Pete Patzo of Scranton in May. The date of the Jimmy SlatteryYoung Stribling bout has been advanced to March 25. JAKE CHALLENGES Bu United Press NEW YORK, March 16.—A challenge to any player at any style of balk line billiards was made by Jake Schaefer who recently lost the 18.2 balk line crown to Erich Hagenlaoher.

Vick May Be Exception

By NBA Service SAN ANTONIO. Texas, March 16. —Many collegiate football stars have tried their hand at professional baseball. The result has been a complete Hop—for the majority. Ernie Nevers, California's football sensation, is being given a trial by the St. Louis Browns this spring as a pitcher. But there are many who already are predicting his failure as an American League prospect. One who promises to prove that it is possible to become an All-Amer-ican grid star and a major league star at the same time is Henry Ernest Vick, who was the center choice by the late Walter Camp on the 1921 team. Vick was Michigan’s pig skin snapper. At present Vick is a r aaanber of the St. Louis Cardinals' catching staff and they do say that he may get as much work as Bob O'Farrell next summer. Plucked by Branch Rickey, who had a hobby for college ball players, Vick has gone through the stages of experience. He was with Houston in the Texas league in 1923, with Louisville in the American Associa-

SUPREME TEST TONIGHT FOR HOFF IN NEW YORK Norwegian Athlete to Meet Osborn and Norton in AllRound Competition at Garden.

Bu United Press NEW YORK. March 16—Two unique events in which the foremost all-round athletes of the world are to compete will bring the indoor track and field season to a close this week. At the Knights of Columbus games in Madison Square Garden tonight, Charley Hoff, the versatile Norwegian, will attempt to make good his challenge to Harold Osborn’s supremacy in a special seven-event test. Emerson Norton, Georgetown’s powerful all-around ace, will bo the third man in the competition. For the Postoffice Clerks’ games at the 102nd Engineers’ Armory on Saturday night, when the curtain will be rung down upon the 1925-26 season, Dehart Hubbard, leaping from a special take-off, will attempt to set the world’s indoor broad jump record at 25 feet. The present indoor record is 23 feet IVs inches. Charley Hoff, Paul Courtois. the national pentathlon champion, and Phil Delehanty, a metropolitan jumper, will furnish the opposition to the Negro. Pole Vault Records It is also probable that Hoff will break the pole vault record twice more before leaving for the West. On next Saturday night, the occasion of his final appearance, It may be learned just how high the lithe, dark-haired, laughing boy from Norway really can vault. Charley has broken his own world’s records repeatedly since coming to the United States, l*is best height thus far being 13 feet 6*4 inches. Hoff is favored to win the K. of C. “septathlon.” Norton and Osborn can beat him at high jumping, shot

in France. He was operated on dur ; ing the winter and regained the use of his other eye. He's so good I don’t know what to do with him. Guess I’ll have to alternate him between right field and first base, where he can help out Joe Judge." Teck at Short With the exception of Tobin the team will be started as it played last year. Peck, despite his bad showing in the last world’s series, will be back at shortstop. I Pitchers Johnson, Coveleskie and Ruether are said by Mike Martin, trainer, to be in the best shape he has ever seen them and Bush reported to the club in fine condition.

putting and possibly hurdling, but the Norwegian excels at pole vaulting, broad Jumping and running. The final result may depend upon the showing of the contestants In the sixty-yard sprint, which should be fairly even. The winner will bo entitled to consider himself the all-round indoor track and field champion. If Hoff can turn the trick, it will be a feather in his cap, for his constant success at tho polo vault has become somewhat monotonous to track fans. Hoff and Nurmi It is a strange fact that Hoff, for all his winning personality and prowess, has not the same capacity for drawing crowds as was possessed by I’aavo Nurmi of Finland during the 1924-25 season. Hoff is too palpably a human being, a likable youngster, modestly pleased with himself, a good mixer who fits right into the picture. There was a mysrtlo quality about Nurmi. They called him the Phantom Finn and he pattered about by himself, aloof, more like an amazing machine or a being from another world than a thing of flesh and blood. If Nurmi coines to this country for the track and field games which are to be a part of Philadelphia’s sesquicentennial celebration next summer, he will be a greater attraction than the No: weglan, although it is doubtful if J.e is a greater athlete.

Initial Drill Vigorous as Indians Prepare for Exhibition Game Saturday Hold-Outs Worry Bush. By Eddie Ash Tunes Sport Editor HOT SPRINGS, Ark., March 16. —With the first day of practice out of the way the Indians settled down to the regular spring training grind today preparing for their opening exhibition game at Little Rock Saturday, where doe Cantillon’s Travelers of the Southern Association will be met.

Tho Tribe pastimors will have to bustle in order to be in condition to make a showing in a nine-inning contest so soon after the long winter layoff, but at the rate the boys extended themselves Monday it is apparent they are bubbling over with enthusiasm, and it won’t take them long to hit their stride. Manager Bush cautioned the athletes against opening the ginger jar the first day on the field, but his advice went unheeded, and the initial drill was long and vigorous. In fact, the Indians went through the paces with a grand rush and refused to quit until two hours haul been spent on the lot. Pitchers Work Every pitcher In camp took a turn on the mound and the whole squad got plenty of batting practice. Hill, Niles, Thompson, Reynolds, Hutton, Ray, McNabb and Weaver toiled in the box at different times. Hutton of Anderson, Ind., a right,hander, uncorked a good-look-ing underhand ball that pleased Bush. Trainer Pierce scouted up a semipro player from Chicago to help Florence with the catching and the absence of Ainsmith, who Is Injured, was not noticed the first day. Stedman is the Chicago lad'B name and he will be issued a Tribe uniform and given regular employment during the Tribe’s stay in Hot Springs, if he cares to stick around. He caught in his street clothes Monday and surprised the onlookers by taking a turn at bat and socking the hall over tho left field fence. Stedman was a lucky pick-up for the emergency that exists. Efforts are being made to land another catcher to be protected if Ainsmlth’s injury develops into a serious matter. With the exception of a largo hole In left field, lack of a batting cage, INDOOR WORK Wabash Athletes Hampered by Bad Weather. Bu Times Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., March 16.—Snow continued to hamper Wabash athletic progress and Coaches Scholier and Tauer sent the baseball and track squads through indoor work again today in the gymnasium. Spring football practice, which began last week under the direction of Coaches Vaughan and Reese, has beers indefinitely postponed until weather conditions again permit the grid candidates, about thirty-five in number, to work out again on Ingalls Field. Baseball prospects at Wabash are fair, with three pitchers rounding into shape in Indoor workouts. Robertson, star twlrler, is back in the fold, and Maurey Rush and Jerry Goraldeau, football letter men. I and pitchers of last year’s freshman I nine, have strengthened the Little ! Giant hurling staff. The infield will be well taken care of with Captain Englehartd on second, and Thompson and Melson of last year’s team holding down first and third. Subs from last year are available for the other open berths, although Scholier will have no easy Job grqoming a catcher to replace Captain Chew of last season.

no fence back of the plate or on the foul lines and no club house at the field, the Tribe’s training park was judged fair enough by Manager Bush. He took a l>etter view of things after inspecting the park where the Milwaukee Brewers are training. The Brewers have a fence all the way around their plant, but the infield is bad and the outfield doesn’t measure up to the Indians' pasture. The Tribe lost only six balls Monday, which is not bad considering conditions. Chill in Air There was a chill In the air Monday, it having snowed here Sunday, but the sun was out with the old >reath of spring and there was no tick registered against the weather. Chief cause for concern at the moment is thi? trouble caused by a number of hollouts among the Indians, 'lolkc, Rehg, Schemanskc, Henry Mid Steele have balked on terms and are not in camp. Some trouble also Is being had with Burwell and Stephenson. but not of a serious nature. Stephenson is here and Burwell is said to be on the way. llolke’s case involves the Cincinnati Reds as well as the Indians. He wants part of the price paid for him and Cincinnati doesn’t care to part with the sum demanded. Commissioner Landis denied his plea asking to be made a free agent and Bush has no Idea what the difficulty will amount to. Kingman at First In the meantime Joe Klugman will be used at first base. He practiced there Monday and displayed flashes of ability. The Tribe holdout list represents a lot of money and power and it is a discouraging situation. The Indians are getting away to a late start in spring training and absent members will cause further handicaps. John McGraw wired from Florida Monday and said he would send Indianapolis a pitcher of promising talent. During infield praoti-o Monday, Eddie Hunter, young third sacker of Cincinnati, did some nifty lleldlng and throwing. He looks the part of a league bail player and may land a job for developing purposes if he can show some Lifting prowess. He stands at the plate like Riggs Stephenson and may make the grade. Reb Russell crashed two over the fence Monday and Matthews sparkled chasing fungo drives in deep center. Pep Florence cut loose with his can non Kill arm and forced the Infielders to ask for mercy.
