Talking It Over BY DANIEL

NEW YORK, Feb. 13. BLARING blasts of ballyhoo are carried on southern breezes from Miami’s shore. The SharkeyScott International extravaganza is only fourteen nights off. and those whose work it is to intrigue lagging imaginations and Incite to interest are stepping on the steam piano. Judging from newspaper reports, pictures filmed on the spot and talkies 'canned on the scene, the 1929 record for hokum production set at the Sharkey-Stribling yawn possibly will be outdone Still, it is doubtful if the classic inspiration of the “attempt" on Jack Dempsey’s life will be matched. a a tt If the b*rker* strain at the trumphet l® lustily down there at Miami thev will have to be pardoned, for they seem to be op against a fairly Intricate Job. lilt year they worked against a lolly national background of Wall Street evr tie inert and heetle and sudden profit*. This time they most appeal ta eustomrr* who. In the matter of headaches to the hundred, perhaps will assay rather hl(h. a tt a The boys of the ballyhoo have introduced several novelties, and so far nobody has enjoined anybody from flying; there has been no hint of the customary squabrue over the referee, and no cable has been sent to the prince of Wales inviting him to be on hand ready to catch Scott bouncing out, or agonizing the foul lullaby. sea MANY interesting divertissements have been put on for the benefit of the Sharkey-Scott ballyhoo. For example, we glimpse a picture of Jack driving a gold nail to complete the Miami arena. If a gold nail really was used, it’s a cinch it has disappeared ere this. There arc many hombres down there who would bite a gold nail tut of a tough plank. tt tt a Another film shows Scott sealing a royal palm. Just what Scot hopes to get at the top Isn't quite clear. He’s Just climbing for no reason at all. I think this picture a sucker move and am surprised that Jimmy Johnston sanctioned It. The inference is that Scott is practicing for a tree climbing act which may come in handy on Feb. 27. a a tt ANOTHER work of art rushed from the battle front poses both Scott and Johnston in tearoom nonchalance and elegance, with Free Fall Phil sporting a walking stick. Shades of John L.! A heavyweight going to work with a cane! And spats! And slicked down hair, with a flunky in the background carrying an invitation to a social function at Palm Beach. Ho, hum! tt tt tt Tex Rickard has been dead for only a little more than year, but already we are surrounded with agencies for ballyhoo which were not at his command. For example. the movietone. The other night I saw and heard Scott in all his bloomsbury glory, tell how he was getting into the pink, and would carry off the world’s championship to merrie England. tt tt tt RICKARD was the real daddy of the modern art of inciting and exciting interest. Tex made a glorius start in 1906, when he promoted ihe lightweight title fight in which Joe Gans won on a foul frmn Battling Nelson in forty-two rounds at Goldfield. A downright inspiration prompted Rickard to exhibit the purse, in glittering S2O gold pieces, in the window of a bank. This stunt gained for Rickard a nation-wide fame.

♦ OFF THE BACKBOARD ♦

BY VERN BOXELL JUST as Saturdays have a habit of doing, Saturday, Feb. 15, is coming around in a very short time. It may be just another pay day to some people, but to Backboard it is that and some more. In fact, if it wasn’t pay day Backboard probably would mark it up as the most dreaded day of the year. But never let it be said that Backboard dreaded a pay day. All of this talk about Saturday, Feb. 15, has to do with one of the menial tasks dished out for Backboard to perform. He started the ball rolling last Tuesday by naming twenty teams who probably would figure in state championship selections, with the promise of cutting them to ten by Thursday. Having done this, Backboard can see nothing but hard work ahead in getting rid of nine more. Anyhow, here are the ten: TECHNICAL WASHINGTON ANDERSON COLUMBUS MUNCIE DF.LPHI FRANKFORT MARTINSVILLE HORACE MANN LOGANSPORT 808 Logansport defeated Horace Mann at Gary Wednesday night, which means that Cliff Wells and his boys probably will be at the tieldhouse, but which doesn't mean Keith Crown and his squad won't.
