Game Has Important Bearing on Race for Title Honors. r ROB ABLE LLNE-LP Beckner F Oofterbaan Krueger F Chambers Sibley C McCoy Wells *. G Harrican Corrcll ■ . G ■ ■ Petrie Bit Times Special ANN ARBOR, Mich., Feb. 18.— Michigan University’s Wolverine basketball squad faces its second strenuous game of the week here Saturday night when Indiana invades this city for the second game of the season between the two schools. It will be the Wolverine’s second game of the week against a Hoosier team. Tuesday night Michigan’s championship hopes received a slight setback when Ward Lambert’s Purdue quintet walked off with a 37-32 verdict at Lafayette. A good deal hinges upon the result of the contest. Should Indiana defeat Michigan it practically would wreck the locals’ hopes for the Big Ten net title, while if the Wolverines drop the visitors it most assuredly would mean the end of any lingering hopes that Indiana may foster for the Conference crown. .

Jn the first game played between Michigan and Indiana the local! pulled away to a 31-27 victory on the Crimson’s home .floor. Since that time, however, Indiana has lost one of the most important members of its squad, Jack Winston, giant cen-ter-backguard, and the majority of critics are picking Coach Mather’s team to win Saturday. MUNCIE TILT Normal and Manchester in Rivalry Encounter. By l imes Special MUNCIE, Ind., Feb. 18.—After a week of hard work-outs, the Hoosieroon netters clash, tonight with Manchester College. The members of the Normal team are out for revenge and aim to get even for the onepoint defeat handed them on the Manchester court, two weeks ago. All locals are in good condition except Harper, lanky Red aYid White center, who was injured in the Hanover game. “Luke” Renner, former Portland High star, probably will jump in Harper’s place. In the forward positions the Normal mentor will use his regulars, Fulmer and Wade. With Captain Schooler and Shively at the defensive berths, Muncie will have nearly her full strength for the first time since the Wabash game, Jan. 18. The Chester Giants come here with the - Idope in their favor by reason of their recent defeat of the I-loosieroons, Wabash and Huntington.

r--i UTLER rooters almost “passed j D I out” at the Armory Thursday night when De Pauw, with a gallant spurt, took the lead during the second half. In fact we thought it was as good as over. Tho Tigers were playing a great brand of ball, in fact the best ball they have played this year. But Messersmith made one personal too many and the Methodists couldn't hold up against the Bulldogs.

Johnny Ward, De Pauw, ami Archie Chadd, Butler, the two little bantams, staged a real battle between themselves. Wherever Child)! would go there was Ward and vice versa. At one time Chadd came charging down the tloor. Johnny was in the way and both went sprawling. Johnny got a free throw. A few minutes later Archie was at the charity line taking a free throw. Dick Sturt ridge, the “Gary Flash." was put into the fray when Byram was unable to outjump Holz. Sturt, ridge didn't seem to have much trouble in getting the tip. He went up in the air like a rubber Dali. He also sank three long ones that swished through the nets cleanly.

Coach Guy Morrison of the De Pauw freshman basketball squad was given a great send-off by his boys Thursday when they defeated the Butler rhlnies. 26-25. Morrison left Indianapolis for Chicago on the midnight train. Sunday he joins the Pittsburgh Pirates at Chicago for the trip to California. Morrison has signed for a try-out in the box for Ownie Bush’s Club. Hs was head baseball coach at the Tiger institution as well as assistant coach in football and basketball. Todd Kirk will coach the baseball team this spring.
