Franklin Vs. De Pauw Thursday Evansville Meets Butler Friday. College net fans will be treated to a real basketball week, seventeen games being carded for the benefit of this double-dribble-mad State. Among the number is included two contests that are attracting special attention, the pair happening to be the opening conference games of the Indiana and Purdue quintets, Hoosier representatives in the Big Ten. Indiana, rated by many critics in the Middle West, the strongest team by far in the conference, opens on the road with Wisconsin. The game will be played at Madison. Purdue will open at home, entertaining Ohio State, on its Lafayette floor. The big doings take a nice start tonight, a quartet of clashes being set down on the book. Indiana will meet Carleton at Bloomington, Butler will tangle with Muncie Normal at Muncie, State Normal will mix things up with De Pauw, while Earlham will be out of the boundaries of the State, playing Wittenberg in the Buckeye State. Crimson Prepared Little is known of the strength of the Carleton outfit, but the Crimson mentors have been drilling their men hard in preparation for the Big Ten opening and the Deanmen are sure to be in good shape. Muncie Normal is fearing the invasion of Butler. The Indianapolis team is a fast travelling crew and Paul Parker, Muncie coach, has the idea that once the Bulldogs get under way they are going to be hard to stop, De Pauw will probably have little trouble with State Normal while Earlham is expecting a real game at Whlttenberg. Wednesday night hut one game is to be played, Carleton moving from Bloomington In the south to meet Purdue at Lafayette in the north. Rivalry Battle Thursday night will be part of the big doings. A typical Hoosier rivalry battle will be enacted at Franklin where De Pauw and Franklin will wage the first of their two annual conflicts on the hardwood. The Baptists fresh from their pair of victories over Evansville’s highly touted Purple Aces are resolved to make a stand at home against the Tigers. The Tigers are a dangerous group of players and once started will cause any team In the State plenty of grief. Friday night will resemble a high school night. Aside from the hundred or so high school fives that will be firing away at the hoop, there will be five college games. The main event is probably the Butler-Evans-ville game In Indianapolis. Evansville has suffered but two defeats, both at the hands of Franklin last Friday and Saturday. The Aces took down Wabash two games In a row on their Evansville floor and Paul Hinkle’s Irvington outfit Is expecting a real battle. The game will be played at the new Armory. Wabash vs. Manchester The seml-windup will be the Wa-bash-Manchester struggle at North Manchester. The Manchester quintet Is composed wholely of veterans and last year were one of the most dangerous teams In the State. The Little Giants are expecting no end of trouble at the Chesters stamping ground and will be full prepared with all sharpshooters on hand. The prelims will consist of the Earlham-Indiana Central contest at Richmond, the Rose Poly-Hunting-ton game at Huntington and the Muncie Normal-Danville Normal fray at Danville. Six games are scheduled to end the week, Saturday night. Aside from the very important Indiana and Purdue tilts, will be the Invasion of Detroit University into Notre Dame territory. Manchester will see more action, meeting Rose Poly at Manchester, Huntington will play Concordia at Ft. Wayne and the Muncie Normal Hoosieroons will tackle Hanover at Hanover. I. A. C. MEETS INDIANA U. Crimson Paddlers to Appear In Local Pool Saturday The Indianapolis Athletic Club has carded the Indiana University swimming team to appear in the local pool Saturday at 8 p. m. The University of Cincinnati team will be seen here at a later date. Indiana gave the locals a good race two years ago, and is expected to furnish its usual strong competition. Several new faces will be seen on tho local team, ampng whom are Weiss, Shaffer, Thompson and Hall. It is hoped that some of the pool records will fall this season as the entire club team Is developing fast.

Cunningham Tells of ‘Gift’

Bu United Frets CHATTANOOGA, Jan. 4.—George Cunningham, former major league pitcher, who figured in the charges made by “Swede" Risberg, late Monday, admitted receiving SSO after the Detrolt-Chlcago series In question, but said he knew of no agreement for Detroit to “throw” a series to Chicago. Cunningham worked In two of the four games which Risberg claims Detroit gave to Chicago after members of the Chicago club had raised a "pool" for the Detroit players. “It was in Philadelphia after we had finished the Boston series that Bill James (another of the former Detroit players involved) gave me an envelope containing SSO and told me to ask no questions,’’ Cunningham said. “I hesitated and told him I didn’t like to take anything without knowing where it came from. He then told me a friend in Chicago mailed him a check for $l5O and asked him to give SSO to each of the pitchers who beat Boston.” RARE STRIBIRNG TO BOX Bu United Frets ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 4.—Young Stribling’s brother, “Babe” Stribling. fighting under the tutelage of his father, will meet Tommy Jones, rated as one of the best lightweights in this section, in a ten-round fray here tonight. On the same card will appear an elongated ex-cook, Roy Clark by name. He is a Negro, seven feet in height, with a ninety-two-inch reach and wears fifteen and one-half size shoes.

Fight Fans Wait for Action

Bu Times Svec-ial NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—The heavyweight tournament has reached the semi-finals stage. Four big fellows stand out as better than the rest of those who would challenge for Gene Tunney’s crown. The sooner these four get together, two at a time, and settle their differences, the better the fight fans will like it. Their names, of course, are Jack Dempsey, Jack Delaney, Jack Sharkey and Jimmy Maloney. If Tex Rickard really was sincere about that “elimination” business, now is his chance to prove it. Bringing Sharkey and Maloney together will be simple. They have fought several times before with varying success. Delaney, however, is playing ball just now with Humbert J Fugazy, while Dempsey is on the coast trying to satisfy himself that his fighting days are not over. With him is Mrs. Dempsey, who hay have something to say about that. So Rickard's big problem seems to be how to win over Delaney. It seems fairly certain that if the Bridgeport boxer was offered a chance to win a bout with Tunney, he would capitulate and agree to fight for Tex. It’s a business, after all. No use in the boys being mad forever. TERRY SIGNS CONTRACT Bu United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 4.—8i1l Terry, first baseman and outfielder, has signed a contract for 1927 with the New York Giants. Manager McGraw of the Giants said he xvas attempting to sign Zach Wheat, veteran outfielder recently released by Brooklyn.

CITY BOWLING GOSSIP '■ "-'By Lefty Lee

In resuming their schedule from last year the Recreation pin topplers certainly lived up to their resolution of getting the wood. I,n Monday night's session the 3-F-Coffee and Kris Transfer, were three-game winners over the Bailey Realty and Shell Gas teams while the Silver Flash and Roberson Coal boys were taking two out of three from the Baker Bros, and Coca Cola. In the Krels Transfer-Shell Gas game the season’s high losing game was rolled by the Shell boys when they hit 1,079. The Transfer outfit had 1,081. Krels Transfer carried off the high total for three games when they shot 1,0J6, 1,081 and 956, for a total of 3,053. Six games passed the 1,000 mark, the 1,081 of Krels Transfer again copping high honors. Forty-one games passed the 200 mark In this loopi, ’ihe 279 of Hill of the 3-F Coffee team being high. KoelIlng was a close second with 266, secured in his middle effort. Ten of the boys passed the 600 mark, the 687 of Koelling, secured on games of 188, 266 and 233, being high. Hunt had 676 on games of 208, 256 and 212. Fulton was another speed boy with games of 201, 247 and 219 for a 667 total. Hill had 643: Eddie Striebeck, 638; Holtz, 623; Carmln, 621; Goodwin, 616; English, 608, aruLAl Siriebeck, 607. A1 Striebeck has had from low 608 to high 735 in his last seven nights of play. This, we believe, is the longest 600 streak of the season for all leagues. In the Century League the boys were also in a wood-getting humor and the 1,000 mark was passed four times, the 1,092 of the Werbe-Meis-sen boys being top mark. The Century’ Alley Five and Flcrsheim Shoes were three-game winners over the Para Optical and Holtman Shoes, while Werbe-Meissen and Banquet Ice Cream were winning two out of three from the Lincoln Highway and Century Billiards. Three splits in a row in the fourth, fifth and sixth frames of his middle game prevented Bob Hukle from joining the 700 class Monday night. Bob started with 277, followed with 170 and came back in his final with 239 for a total of 68G. If this boy could have had the breaks for him instead of the reverse the score sheet would have shown anew season’s record, for he surely was In the “one-three.” Other 600 shooters were: Shultz, 613, Bohne, G 10: Tompkins, Cl 6; MeNew, 604. Eder, 609; Neppel, 648; Naughton, 610, and Dersch, 607.

Werbe-Meissen, with a total of 3,000, on games of 951, 957 and 1,092, were high in this department of play. Thirty-six games of better than 200 showed the 277 of Bob Huklo’s topping the field. The Century alley five, present city champions, were asked Monday night their reason for not wearing the new medals won with the championship. We were then informed the surprising fact that to date they have not received these medals. Come on, Eddie, get busy and give “Uncle Sam” a package addressed to Jerry at the Century alleys. The boys from Marion here to attend the sweepstakes at the Century alleys over the week-end stayed over long enough to win a match from the Shell Gas team at the Recreation alleys, 2,897 to 2,830. The next opponent of the Shell Gas boys from out of town will be the team from Nobles ville. “Billy” Claman of the ClamanStlrk combination in the doubles sweepstakes at the Recreation Sunday, ran up a total of 669 for his three games. !?tlrk had 634, which gave this team 1,303, the season’s highest doubles score in competition. That’s the way to barrel ’em, Bill!
