TRESTER BLAMES H. S. PRINCIPALS FOR TICKET SITUATION

Orders for Scats Were Filed Late Unfairness in Distribution Hinted in Coaches’ Meeting. Responsibility for the failure of some Indiana high schools to obtain tickets for the state final basketball tourney tc be played at Butler fieldhouse Friday and Saturday, today was shifted to the high chool principals involved by A. L. Trester, commissioner of the I. H. K A. A. In a telephone conversation with The Times today, following a meeting of thirteen coaches who have teams in the tourney, held here Monday night. Trester stated that the complaining schools had filed their orders too late, and that the supply had been exhausted. Their checks were returned with their unfilled orders. “Tlie ticket sale has been carried out on the system planned this fall,’’ Trester said. He addpd that the school had blamed th"' association for the existing conditions. At the meeting Monday, the thirteen coaches did not take any official action, but discussed the. “deplorable ticket situation." It was pointed out that Anderson, where Trester makes his headquarters, iiad received 750 tickets, while Central of Ft. Wayne received only fifty and other Ft. Wayne schools none. Delphi is reported to have received 380. Franklort 270 and Martinsville 250. Many schools, including Salem. La Porte, Goshen and others, were given only the fifty allotted to regional winners, and their otner orders were returned unfilled. The condition was discovered too late to make any changes this year. The coaches urged the principals to confer with the board of control in an effort to avoid a repetition of the alleged unfairness next year. Butler Stars in N. Y.

4 Big Six* of State H. S. Basketball to Compete in 1930 Title Tourney

BY DICK MILLER. Indiana has a “big six" in high school basketball, a review of the records of past state tournaments reveals. Six of the sixteen teams that will compete in the final games of the 1930 Indiana high school championship tourneys at Butler fieldhouse Friday and Saturday have held the spotlight in thirteen of the nineteen title affairs of the past. Five of the six were at the state meet last year, Anderson losing its place for one year to Technical of Indianapolis. However, these six teams have been either winners or runnersup in two-thirds of the titular scraps. The six are Frankfort, Martinsville, Franklin, Muncie, Anderson and Kokomo. Franklin probably possesses the greatest record, having won the title three straight years. Franklin also was runnerup once. Os the six, Kokomo has won the least recognition. having been the runnerup but once. Two pioneer teams, Crawfordsville and Lebanon, winner and runnerup in the first tournament back in 1911, again will be absent. In fact, it is necessary to go back in the records to 1918 when Lebanon won the title to find either team in the final game. Lebanon also won the title in 1912 and in 1917. The only time Craw'fordsville returned to the spotlight was in 1916, when the Athenians were runnersup to Jefferson of Lafayette. Anderson has been runnerup three times, while Muncie was a winner once and runnerup twice. AMUSEMENTS
