NORMAL DIAMOND OUTLOOK Terre Haute School Looks Forward to Big Baseball Season. Bii Times Special TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Feb. 26. Witli tfte basket season rapidly drawing to a close at the . State Normal School, attenion is being turned to baseball. While several members of last year’s team were lost by graduation, there remains a fair nucleus. With Chestnut and Dorman, catchers of two year’s experience, again in the fold, catching material is plentiful. Parker, a sophomore, also shows plenty of promise and the battle for the first string receiver’s job promises to be a hot one. On the mound, Charley Taylor, “iron man” of last year’s team, will be available and Parks, also a member of last year’s staff, will be ready for duty. In addition to these two, Hedges is eligible this season and he shows plenty of promise. On the infield, Captain Fromme of last year’s team and Piker were lost by graduation and this leaves the second and third base stations to be filled. McPherson will be eligible for the initial bag while Alterkruse again will work at short. Rex Wright, former Wiley star, very probably will fill the station at third base and Sneyd at the middle sack. In the outfield, Hedge is the only man available from last year’s combination,, but there are a number of promising candidates.

‘COMEBACKS’ PLENTIFUL IN MAJORS THIS YEAR Many Veteran ‘Rookies’ Return in Both Big Leagues Striving to Stay Up as Regulars.

Bu United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 26.—Several ball players, some who have obtained and others who have vainly striven for big league recognition, will go out this year and attempt to dispel the baseball theory that “they never come back.” At least a score of this type of player must coine through during the 1927 season if the judgment of quite a few big league managers is to be vindicated. For the day seems to have come ■when Brooklyn no longer has the exclusive privilege of employing athletes who are about ready to grow flowing beards. Six in Chicago The Chicago White Sox, for Instance, have at least three newcomers of more or less ancient rating. The Chicago Cubs, likewise, have three who have been trying for big league recognition for quite some time. The White Sox have listed as their “attempted comebacks” Bert Cole, Elmer Jacobs and Ike Boone. Cole

i. U.-BADGERS Wisconsin Invades Crimson Net Camp Tonight. Bu Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Feb. 26. Having struck a snag on its journey towards the conference championship as a result of the Ohio State game last Tuesday night, Indiana University’s basketball team has hopes of redeeming itself here tonight against the string Wisconsin quintet. Doan's band of goal shooters upset “Doc” Meanwell’s outfit at Madison earlier in the season, 28 to 23. Since then Winston, who secured the tip off against the Badgers, has graduated and Indiana hag found it hard to maintain its former quality. Stopping Behr, Andrews, Tenhopen, Kowalcyzk and Captain Barnum is a difficult job for the Hoosiers. Tenhopen is almost certain to control the ball from the pivot position. The Badger is a few inches taller than Sibley. Tonight’s game is next to last fray on the home floor this season, Northwestern coming here next Saturday night.

28 BOXERS Middle States Amateurs in Tourney Finals. Bu United Press GARY, Ind., Feb. 26.—Twentyeight amateur boxers, representing eight cities in seven States, battle here tonight for the Middle States amateur titles in the finals of the seventh annual tournament. Milwaukee was out in front in the race for team honors at the end of Friday night’s fights which concluded the elimination rounds. The Columbus Institute of Milwaukee will send seven men into the final matches. Gary Y. M. C. A., with six still in the running was second, while the Grand Rapids American Legion had five men remaining, the Pittsburg Willow Club three, and Minneapolis three, while the Cincinnati A. C„ the | Joliet Steel Works, and the 124th Field Artillery, and- the Swedish American -A. C. of Chicago each had one. SPECIAL CUE MATCHES Dawson to Meet Loral Stars at Claypocl Next Week. Eddie Dawson, veteran cueist, who -i appearing in matches at the Clay-, pool parlors, will meet a number Of’ local stars next week, among them being Joe Hunter, Waiter Ramsey and Rubens. Matches are staged afternoon and night and are free to the public. In three-cusliion contests, Dawson defeated Ramsey, 50 to 25, and downed H. H. Williams, 50 to 47. Dawson plays all styles of billiards.

couldn’t quite come through for Detroit after several years of effort. Jacobs, a pitcher who has just about everything imaginable, including plenty of temperament, is a cracking good pitcher and with just a little bit less temperament should make a valuable manBut sometimes a sack would come in handy for him while lie is chasing a flyball. He is said to have improved his fielding during the time he spent last year with Frisco in the Coast League. “No Hit” Hurler Charley Robertson of “No-Hit” fame, and once regarded as one of the greatest moundsmen in baseball, is another one of the “come-back boys.” Robertson has traveled quite a route. Released by the White Sox, for whom he pitched the perfect game in 1923, lie went to the St. Louis Browns on waivers. From St. Louis he went to Milwaukee in thq American Association. The Braves pulled him back last fall in a deal which also sent Lance Richbourg, with Milwaukee last year, to the Boston club. Richbourg is another who has been knocking at the major league doors for several years. Two others coming back to the majors are Fred Hoffman, a catcher, and Paul Wanninger, a shortstop, both of whom were once with the Yankees. The two of them were at St, Paul last year. Hoffman has improved, no doubt, with steady work, and Wanninfjer is said to have become a better hitter. Both may stick with Boston. A1 De Vormer, another once Yankee, comes back this year, but in a Giant uniform, A1 returns from Louisville. McGraw also lias Dewitt Lebourveau, turned back to the minors three years ago by tho lowly PhilliesWebb May Stay Luther Roy, John Brillheart and Earl Webb, all former big leaguers, are those who will attempt to stage a comeback with the Cubs. Brillheart failed several cimes and Roy was turned loose by Cleveland after having failed to deliver. Webb, if lie shows lie can hit, Is almost certain to jn in the left field job against right-handed pitching. Brooklyn has Arnold Statz, who failed when a Cub. Nobody in baseball is a better fielder than Statz, but his throwing arm isn’t so good. He hit well for a time as a Cub, but finally slipped and was shunted back. Lewis Fonseca, once a Red, has turned up at Cleveland by way of Newark. Frank Henry is trying to make the grade again. This time with the Giants. Carmen Hill and Byron Speece are up again with the Pirates and Grover Hartley with the Red Sox. And there are about a dozen others trying to stage the "old come-back.”

KRAUSS BURGLARS BLAMEDIN THEFT Department Store Visited Third Time in Week. Belief that the same burglars who made so many successful visits to the Paul H. Krauss men’s furnishing store, 32 S. Meridian St., have changed their point of attack to the Rowlette Department Store, Patterson and Michigan Sts., was expressed by police today, after the third burglary in less than a week was reported. Early today a window was smashed by a rock. Mrs. Lottie Mullen, 52, of 501 Patterson St., who was awakened by the falling glass, saw three Negro youth and routed them. All appeared about 18, Mrs. Mullen said. Police guarded the window until daylight. Last Saturday night a truck was backed up to a rear door and loot valued at more than SI,OOO carted away.

I guess that Clowny, like as not, quite absent-mindedly forgot how scared he was when he was hanging to the moon on high. Or else he didn't want to tell the others ’cause he feared they’d yell and say he was a coward. So he let the thought pass by.. While he was telling of his ride, the Smoke Man came up to his side and said, “I think it’s going to rain. Tho clouds are getting thick.” Wee Clowny looked up over ahead, and then replied, “I always dread a storm with peals of thunder. Can’t we gat out of its track?” The Smoke Man answered, "Wc will see. Just leave the safety task to me.” And then ho started blowing smoke, and said, “I never fail.” He blew and blew. The Tinies sat and watched the puffs of smoke grow flat, and then they soon discovered It was forming like a sail. “Ah, there you are.” the Smoke Man said. "We’re ready now to sail ahead.” And, sure enough, a sail had formed and stood in proper place. The wind picked up and sure, but slow, their cloud of smoke began to go, and ere the Tinies knew It, they were sailing into space. They passed beneath the clouds aboe und Scouty shouted, “My, I love to travel through the air like this. I’m not afraid at all.” And as they reached the safety place, each Tiny turned his little face and taw that whero they just had been, the rain began to fall.
