Crimson Groom for Hardwood Fracas With Irish Friday at South Bend

Dean Strives to Perfect Offense to Evade Strong N. D. Defense. HOOSIERS ARE WORRIED Expect Stiff Struggle From Koegan Players. By Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Dei. 19. B’’” 'g an offense power:' ..i enough to evade the strong Notre Dame defense has been the problem of Coach Everett' Dean, Indiana net mentor, as he prepares his Scrappin’ Hoosiers for their first foreign invasion Friday night, when they play the Irish at South Bend. Notre Dame’s 18-to-14 setback by Northwestern Tuesday night is causing the Hoosiers even more worry, for the Irish will be out to redeem themselves Friday night at the expense of the Deanmen. With the crimson slow to round into form, indications are that the game will be one of the most difficult on the Indiana card. Each year the Koegan players turn in strong records and will be doubly dangerous Friday night on their home floor. It is thought that the members of the Indiana regular quintet who nave been hampered by bad colds and influenza will be in condition for the Notre Dame game. If not, Dean will be forced to use recruits. Strickland, high scoring forward, was used only a few minutes in the Pennsylvania game. His absence was very conspicuous in both the offensive and defensive play of the Hoosiers. Mat Aftermath Brings Penalty Because there was some disorder following Monday night’s wrestling show at Tomlinson hall, the city boxing commission has suspended Promoter McLemore for thirty days and Elmer Guthrie, winner over Ralph Wilson, for sixty days. Wilson hit the filoor with a thud in the third fall and one of Guthrie’s knees struck him in the “wind” and he suffered “air exhaustion” for a short time. He was uninjured, but his followers became excited and threatened Guthrie, iwho was escorted to his dressing room by police. McLemore, veteran promoter, said this is the first time he has had a license revoked in any city. Big Four to Play Firestone Squad One of the feature independent games of the season will be staged at the Y. M. C. A. court Saturday night when the Indianapolis Big Four five meets the powerful Firestone squad of Akron, O. The game will start at 8:30. On the Firestone team is Milas Shoun, 6 foot 31 inch center, formerly of the Chicago Bruins; Hal Griggs and Bob Wakefield of Butler, Don Burdette and Theron Coffell of Wabash, Frank Sibley of I.

YOUNG John Hay Whitney, better known to his friends as “Jock,” is a busy young man. He has to find time to play polo, direct the racing activities of the big Greentree Stables, meet the obligations of a social lion and spend some of the $20,000,000 that was left to him by his father, the late Payne Whitney. Young Whitney, who is shown above, found his time so occupied during the Saratoga race meeting last season that he had to buy an airplane to commute back and forth from New York.

Old Order Changes; Baseball Pilots Aided by Former Stars 1 - Many Veterans Now Act as Managerial Lieutenants on Major League Boards of Strategy.

BY BILLY EVANS NEA Service Writer Unlike the oil days, major league managers now are quite well supplied with assistants. No longer does the entire task of bossing a team fall on the shoulders of one man—the pilot. An assistant or two relieves the manager of many details nowadays. Among the latest members of the first lieutenant brigade is Ray Schalk, former catcher and manager of the Chicago White Sox. Schalk, one of the greatest of backstops, will be chief aide to John McGraw of the Giants next season. Mcßride, Who joins Detroit, is another. Schalk, a great player, found little success in the managerial role. In this he was no different than Cobb and other famous pastimers, who encountered only so-so success in the pilot’s job after starring in active competition, Schalk, however, should prove of much assistance to McGraw. He knows the game from A to Z and back again. He should be especially valuable in helping develop the Giant pitchers. Schalk, incidentally, is another former big league manager to join the aide-de-camp group. Some of

HOCKEY TEAM MOVES Chicago Team Soon to Transfer Games to Detroit. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 19.—The Canadiens of Montreal defeated Chicago, 5 to 0, at hockey here Tuesday night, in one of the last games for Chicago fans this winter. It was announced that all games scheduled for Chicago after Jan. 20 will be played in Detroit. The games were to have been played in anew sport stadium being built here, but Blackhawk officials were unable to reach an agreement with the board of directors. MAY RELEASE DUGAN Veteran “Hot Comer” Guardian Likely to Sign National Contract. By United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 19.—Joe Dugan, veteran third baseman, may be given his unconditional release by the New York Yankees, it is rumored in baseball circles here. The Yankees today refused to deny or affirm the rumor. If Dugan gets his release he may sign with the Brooklyn Robins or Chicago Cubs.

Sharkey Won’t Box Stribling in South; Says Tex Controls Three Heavies

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Dec. 19—A feud between Tex Rickard and Jack Sharkey seemed possible today following a caustic telegram sent the promoter by the Boston heavyweight. Sharkey sent the promoter a wire in which he said he was ready to “take on Stribling, Paolino and Dempsey one after another in New

the others include “Kid” Gleason and Eddie Collins of the Athletics; Art Fletcher, Yankees; Clyde Milan, Senators, and Bill Killefer, Browns. Gleason, Collins and Schalk are three ex-White Sox pilots. It is interesting to note some of the old stars now employed as managerial aides on major league club.'. Last season, for instance, Washington had Altrock and Schacht as wei’ as Milan; the Red Sox had Heinie Wagner; the Yankees, Charley O’Leary and Fletcher; the Tigers, Lefty Liefield; the Cleveland Indians, Howard Shanks; the Cincinnati Reds. Bobby Wallace, Ivy Wingo and Grover Land; the Phillies, Fred Hunter; the Robins, Otto Miller and so on down tht line. Few assistants or coaches ever replace their boss as manager of the same team. But I recall one who did. That’s Lena Blackburne, present pilot of the White Sox. Blackburne was Schalk’s aide at Chicago. When Ray stepped out, Lena stepped in. Moreover, Blackburrc pulled the club out of the gutter where it had slipped under Schalk's management. Blackburne, an ordinary player, turned a trick which Schalk, a great pastimer, was unable to perform An odd game is baseball.

being Stribling’s manager and said the promoter had made an offer to buy his contract. “I know you are peeved when I refused $60,000 to go under your management,” Sharkey’s telegram read, “but I would not do so for sixty million. “When Knute Hansen, whom you brought from Europe and agreed to manage, was knocked out by Christner you assumed the management of young Stribling. I understand you also have the controlling interest in Paolino, while everybody knows you manage Dempsey.” “The big bum always quits whenever he gets a chance." Rickard said. “If he wants to fight Stribling at Miami Beach all right, but if he doesn’t why I’ll use Paolino instead. I’m not worrying whether Sharkey wants to fight or not. If he thinks he can get by this sort of bluff he’s crazier than I thought he was.” Rickard laughed at the idea of managing any fighter, saying he did not have any interest in Dempsey, Stribling or anyone else.
