Off the * I Backboard *—By Norman E. Isaac *•— 1
THE next big event on this season’s basketball program, ladies and gentlemen, will be presented today by the Indiana High School Athletic Association on behalf ot its 761 members. The event, to be explicit, will be the announcement -of the schedule of the sixty-four ♦actional high school basketball tournaments which will be played March 1 and 2. u * * The entire group of 761, In all. orobability, will parade to the post next Friday for the opening volley in the high schoolers’ big annual basketball fiesta. The sixty-four survivors of the opening round of sectional competition are assigned in groups of four to sixteen regional tournaments and the ultimate survivors of the regionals will head for Indianapolis, where the state finals meet for the coveted crown, will be staged on Friday and Saturday, March 15 and 16. u DESPITE THE FACT THERE IS AN AMPLE NUMBER OF ‘'STAND-OUTS” WHO EASILY WILL SLIDE THROUGH SECTIONAL AND REGIONAL PLAY, INTEREST IN THE SECTIONAL DRAWINGS ALWAYS REACHES A HIGH PEAK BECAUSE EACH OF THE 761 CONSIDERS ITSELF A CONTENDER. BUM For example, the Indianapolis sectional is not a “push-over” for Technical, despite the fact that Arsenalites are the “class” of this district. Three hard games against old rivals such as Shortridge. Manual and Broad Ripple might wear the Teehites down, if such a draw were made, and a county schol could walk off with the honors. mu* One of those games “that don’t mean a thing” developed into a hectic contest Thursday night, Shortridge finally squeezing out a victory over Manual, 24 to 22. Before the contest was half over, we had come to the decision it meant quite a bit. The city rivals fought like wildcats and it was a field goal in the last few seconds of play that turned in the victory for the northsiders. And there was ilenty of throat-weary Shortlidgers and Manualites resting up today.

Blue Larkspur and Ervast Established as Winter Book Favorites. TO BE RUN ON MAY 18 . Earl Sande’s Nearly Regarded as Starter. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 23.—One Hundred and fifty-nine horses have been nominated for the fifty-fifth renewal of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs Saturday, May 18, Colonel M. J. Winn, president of the American Turf Association, announced today through the United Press. Included in the list are the leading stake-winners of last year and many of the prominent winners of the winter racing season. The Three D’s stock farm, owned by W. T. Waggoner and Sons of Ft. Worth, Tex., led in the number of nominations with nine. Most of the other prominent stables had one or more entries. Earl Sande, who has booted two Kentucky Derby winners home, has nominated three thoroughbreds for the Derby. Nearby, a bay filly, is regarded as an almost certain starter, but Safety Pin and Hermitage are doubtfuls. Sande won on Zev in 1923 and Flying Ebony in 1925. E. R, Bradley's Blue Larkspur, winner of the Juvenile stakes and the National Stallioii Stakes at Belmont Park, and Baron Long’s Ervast, a western colt, have been established as betting favorites in the winter book, according to the odds quoted by a well-known New York commissioner. Odds of 8 to I have been quoted against both Blue Larkspur and Ervast. H. P. Gardner’s Clyde Van Dusen, Robert L. Gerry’s High Strung and the Loma Stable’s Twink are second choices in the winter book at odds of 10 to 1. John J. Coughlin’s Roguish Eye and the Three D’s Stock Farm Vermajo have odds of 12 to 1 quoted against them. From the list of nominations the United Press has selected twentynine probable entries, of which eighteen are regarded now as almost certain starters. Leading Stake Winner High Strung was the leading stake winner for 1928 with purses totalling $153,590. Robert L. Gerry’s chestnut colt started six times, won five races and was unplaced once.

Hildebran<PCT&#S As Bulldogs Sweep to Triumph Over De Pauw Hard Fighting TigeivSiletmen Unable to Cope With Smooth Indianapolis Outfit.
BY GEORGE SCOFIELD, Times Staff Correspondent GREENCASTLE, Ind., Feb. 23. Fighting valiantly against the smooth working Butler university basketball machine, De Pauw university's cagers went down to a 34-to-23 defeat in Bowman Memorial g„ nasium here Friday night. It was the second defeat of the season administered the Old Gold by the Bulldogs, who took the first game, 35 to 20, in Indianapolis. Butler led all the way after a lively skirmish in the first half when the Tigers tied the count at 13-all, but it was anybody’s ball game until a gent by the name of Oral Hildebrand, who plays center for the blue cagers, decided it was high time to quit fooling, and streaked down the floor three times for as many spectacular set-up shots. Hildebrand, who went through the game with 947 yards of adhesive tape bound around a game leg, was high scorer of the battle, with 12 points.

verge of a knockout victory In those last minutes of the bout.
Faolino's lead was much too great to be lost by one poor round and the crowd was inclined to agree with the verdict of the judges. It was a case of inexperience again, the same thing that cost the 34-year-old Christner the decision against Sharkey. He was lacking in ring generalship and unable to turn aside the advances of the sturdy Uzcudun. In the ten-round semi-final, Charley Belanger, Canada, fought a draw with Tiger Jack Payne of Australia. Alfred Ros of Spain, protege ipf Uzcudun, scored a teclmical knockout in the ninth round of his Scheduled ten-round bout with Billy S.lcer, Phoeniz, Ariz. Ros proved iiimself an able ringman.
The game opened with Butler jumping into the lead on a long toss by White. De Pauw-, however, quickly knotted the count, and for the most of the first stanza it was a nip-and-tuck battle. Just before the half ended, however, White and Chandler flipped a goal each, and Butler led, 19 to 14, at half time. The old gold rallies, led by Ragsdale, who played a bangup game, were nipped before they threatened. Four personal fouls sent Captain White to the showers soon after the first half opened, and Christopher filled his shoes admirably, sinking a pretty goal and handling the ball excellently.
