Ind., Feb. 21.—The Wab2Sh cagers will make their last home stand Os the 19291930 season on the Scarlet floor Saturday night when they tackle the strong Irish opposition of Notre Dame.

Phil Scott Ballyhoo Is Flop; Receives No Backing by Fans ,r ight Followers Refuse to Risk Money on Englishman Against Tough Jack Sharkey.
Bn United Press MIAMI, Fla,, Feb. 21—Almost every day now 7 someone is coming forward—or being put forward—and believing that Phil Scott of England is better prize fighter than Jack Sharkey of Boston. It is all part of the ballyhoo of the fight business and if there were not those who believe Scott has a chance, the fight might as well go by default. Press headquarters for the fight first quoted William F. Carey, head of the Madison Square Garden Corporation, as predicting that if Sharkey failed to finish Scott before fifteen rounds and the thing w r ent to a decision, Scott would be a likely ■winner. Next came a second-hand announcement that somebody had talked with William Muldoon of the New York commission and he had predicted that if Sharkey failed to win in the first few rounds Scott would outpoint him. Today John H. Scott Jr. of the New Jersey boxing commission made the same prediction. But it will require more than that to make people back Scott with money. Thus far there has been practically no betting at oddse of two to one or even better that Sharkey would win.

Washington Lineup Virtually Same as During Last Race Manager Johnson Expresses Confidence, However, Despite Shortage of New Talent; LGepp May Break In.
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 21.—Washington has made less effort than any other American League club to strengthen itself for the 1930 pennant race and the Senators will present virtually the same lineup as last season. Injuries and other mishaps retarded the Senators last season and Manager Walter Johnson believes that the team, barring accidents, will be a pennant contender this season. The only new player with an even chance of making the grade appears to be George Loepp, a right-handed hitting outfielder who batted .310 with Baltimore last year. As Wash* ington's four outfielders, Emile Barnes, Leon Goslin, Sam Rice and Sam West, are all left-handed hitters, Loepp, who had a trial with the Red Sox in 1928, may land in the regular lineup. The other outfielder is Alvin Powell, a 20-year-old free agent from Silver Springs, Md.
Some money at three to one has been laid, it is said. Training activities of the principals shifted back to Miami Beacr. today after Scott’s visit to Palm Beach Thursday where he worked out before a society crowd at the Oasis Club. Sharkey was idle Thursday. Vatlomi Campolo recently knocked out another sparring partner, Lou Carpenter, as the high point of the day. Johnny Risko came here from Hollywood to give Miami fans a chance to look at him and attracted much attention. He gave his bout with Campolo another boost on its way to an importance almost as great as the so-called main event. I. A. C. PADDLERS LEAVE Ten members of the Indianapolis Athletic Club girls’ swimming team left for Chicago today, where they will compete with the Illinois Women’s Athletic Club in a return meet tonight. Those making the trip were Clippinger, Fowler, Hewitt, Smith, Weiss, Showalter. Horsche, Shively, Willis and Power. Dick Papenguth, I. A. C. swimming director, accompanied the team.
The infield will be fashioned out of familiar players. Joe Judge will be at first, Jack Hayes and Buddy Myer, a failure at third base last season, will compete for second, Joe Cronin will be at short and Ossie Bluege, said to have recovered from his injury in midseason last year, will be at third. Other infielders are Harley Boss, reserve first baseman, and Jimmy McLeod, a 21-year-old rookie from the Little Rock club, where he batted .252. The pitching staff will be built around Sam Jones, Fred Marberry, Irving Hadley, Ad Liska, Myles Thomas, right-handers, and Garland Braxton, Lloyd Brown and Bob Burke, southpaws. Carlos Moore, right-hander from the south, is said to be promising. Herbert Pyle, who lost sixteen and won nine for Chattanooga, is another fair prospect. He is a right-hander. The Senators are w r ell fortified behind the bat, with Muddy Ruel, Roy Spencer and Benny Tate from last year’s staff; Eddie Gharrity. a coach last season, who has shifted to the playing ranks, and Nelson Jester, 18-year-old recruit.
