Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
"VIEW YORK. Jan. 14.—1 t pains ' me very much to note that some of my contemporaries have beaten an ancient and time honored release date. For years and years it has been the custom to start writing about Babe Ruth’s girth control on Jan. 13. This date was set arbitrarily by a committee of baseball writers back in the palmy and halcyon days of 1920, after the sport world had been rocked by Ruth s sale to the Yankees by the Red Sox for 5100,000. a a a In the pul week, howeier, there have been no lower than aeven etorle* dealing with the Babe's poundage, his efforts to reduce under the direction of Mons. trthur McOorem. and other personal data peculiar and germalne to the subfeet. a m a Thla would indicate either that the Babe has worn exceptionally well, or that there is a record paucity of sporting subject matter. I am Inclined to believe tnat the matter traces to a combination of both. The tremendous boom In wrestling, find the space devoted to the recent wrangling between the New York boxing commission end Max Schmeling's American manager, would tend to bear out the Impression this Is a strange winter. a a a AS for Ruth, it is quite patent that in spite of his having been dethroned as home run king by the voluminous Hack Wilson, the Babe still retains his outstanding position as a sporting marvel. Rivals may come and rivals may go. They may even better Babe’s record of sixty homers. But Ruth will continue to stand out just so long as he remains in the picture. It doesn't seem that long, but here he Is getting ready for his twelfth season with the Yankees! Except for a letdown In his home run manufacture, except for the addition of a few pounds to the "fflclal January statistics, Ruth looks little eha.iged from the Babe of half a dozen years ago. Yes, he’s more sedate. But not sedate enough to spoil him!” 000 Ruth’s weight? Why. my flies show that on Jan. 13, 1930, he scaled 238 pounds This has been the standard weight at this stage for years and years, and It Is not for me to start any innovations.
WHEN Ruth was sold by Harry Frazee to Jake Ruppert and Colonel Huston, the owners of the Yankees made a great to-do in the matter of secrecy. They refused to divulge the exact amount paid for the home run king. ana Some of the scribes said it was $150,000. Some cut It to $137,000 to make it took more authentic. But in the last year it has been disclosed by Colonel Ruppert that the price was SIOO,OOO. nun "We certainly thought it was a lot of money in those days and we debated and debated, but Hug finally wore us down,” said Colonel Jake the other day. "Now. we pay SIOO.OOO for a kid in the minors, and pay it without having seen the boy. The game has changed.” nun It certainly has changed, when you find the St. Loois Cardinals asking $150,000 for Jim Bottomley, the first baseman who was one of the busts of the 1930 world series. I have It on reliable authority that Sam Breadon has asked about $50,000 in players and the rest in cash for Jim’s release. n n n CHICAGO mathematicians have figured it out for me. They say that Bottomley would go at a pennant pace for perhaps one full season. This would mean that Jim would have to draw aboijt SI,OOO a game to make him a worth while investment. And we haven’t figured his salary, which would be in the neighborhood of $15,000. n n n Os course, there Is nothing in baseball law that says Bill Wrigley must take Breadon seriously. But It all sort of fits In with the wrestling craze, the New York boxing commission and the advancement of the Ruth girth control release date to confirm the impression that this Is a funny winter. ST. PHILIPS ON TOP East Siders Come From Bcliind to Beat Meteors. With a flash of their championhip form, the St. Philip A. C.s came from behind in their game with the Meteors Tuesday night on the Saints’ floor, overcoming a 15 to 8 lead and running away to a decisive 30 to 17 victory. After the Saints got under way they held the Meteors to two points. Caskey and Birch led the winners with four field goals each and Williams and Carpenter stood out for (he losers.

Roaehdale at Washington. Knlghtstown at Broad Ripple. SATURDAY NIGHT Sevmour at Shortrldge. Mooresville at Manual. Ft. Wavne Catholic at Cathedral. Washington at Noblesvllle. Park School at Fishers. ' Crlspus Attucks vs. Lincoln at St. Louis. With the twelve-team Marlon county tourney opening at the Armory on Friday for a two-day stand, and twelve other promising tilts on the city program, local prep hardwood followers are due to see plenty of Hoosierdom’s favorite winter sport this week. County teams today continued preparations for the annual event with hopes of breaking the two-year reign of Ben Davis’ elongated snipers. One of the closest races in the history of the event is expected, with several rivals apparently evenly matched. Out-of-Town Features Topping the city bill will be two Friday night engagements, both out of town. Shortridge’s undefeated cagers, who survived their first test against a topnotch rival with Bedford here last Friday, will tackle another tough foe in Coach Glenn Curtis’ Artesian five at Martinsville Friday night. Tim Campbell’s Tech tossers, following their unexpected victory over Newcastle here last Friday, will oppose Frankfort, ranked as the strongest team in the state at present, at the Hot Dog town on Friday. Tech has shown steady improvement and should give the Casemen a real battle. Two city rivals, Manual and Cathedral, are expected to stage a thriller when they get together at the north side gym Friday night. Manual’s vet netters are showing the best of recent seasons, but will find a worthy opponent in the Irish cagers. Attucks to Mound City Crispus Attucks will face two strong foes this week, playing Vashon at East St. Louis Friday and Lincoln at St. Louis Saturday. The local Negro five turned in two sparkling triumphs last week-end. Washington’s Continentals tackle a double assignment, entertaining Roaehdale on Friday and going to Noblesville Saturday. Knightstown comes to Broad Ripple for a tilt Friday. Shortridge’s foe Saturday will be Seymour, an in-and-out performer this season* Park school will attempt to make it two straight at Fishers, while Cathedral entertains Catholic Central of Ft. Wayne and Manual plays host to Mooresville.
BASKETBALL S&!St) PI3MBRS
BY EVERETT S. DEAN Basketball Coach, Indiana University Basketball scouting in the Big Ten is emphasized almost as much as in football. Intensive scouting has played an important role in the scientific development of the game by creating keen competition which in turn has speeded up the evolutionary stages of the game. However, many of our leading coaches believe that all sports would be better off if scouting were discontinued. Present day scouting is done in a very ethical manner. The procedure is for the coach to write the opposing coach and notify him that he will be there to scout his team. The scout should choose a high seat either

Butler’s tossers still are unbeaten in seven starts. With Proffit and Miller, sophomores, showing continued improvement, and Withrow, Chadd and Tackett showing the best form of their careers, Blue backers believe the Fairview five has excellent chances of finishing the season unbeaten.

along side or on the end, according to his liking. During the preliminary practice he should study individuals and get their shooting percentage. The good scout does not enjoy the game from the spectator’s viewpoint because of his quest for information on the team’s playing. In studying the opponent’s offense he looks for weak and strong places and figures how to stop it. He tries to find the weak spot in the defense in order to attack it there. The personnel is studied closely for strong and weak points. An outline is used by most coaches for sake of efficiency. NEXT: Plays Around Center Ring,

.Kick Is Lacking as Taylor Trims Lucas in Armory Go
The feature of Tuesday night’s ten-round main go at the Armory was the fact Tracy Cox, Indianapolis featherweight, challenged the winner. Otherwise there was little entertainment for a packed house as Bud Taylor scored a decisive, tame point victory oyer Joe Lucas, Detroit, the affair resembling a routine workout in a gymnasium. Lucas was in there to stay and Taylor lacked the powder or desire to put him away. The Terre Haute blonde has lost much of the class that used to thrill the ringsiders and is slow and wind-blown compared with the former “Terror.” Ordinarilly Taylor would have disposed of an opponent of the Lucas type in short order. At times Bud thrust out his chin for Lucas to hammer and Lucas punched, but to no avail. No kick. Taylor hooked and stabbed and smothered the Detroiter on the ropes, but Joe stood up under the belting by displaying elbow defense and footwork. Lucas was on the short end throughout and appeared satisfied, for he seldom launched an attack and forced Taylor to do the leading. Many ringsiders were of the opinion Taylor ‘‘pulled’’ his punches. It was announced weights were, Taylor, 127; Lucas, 12 , but The Times estimated Bud at about 130 and Joe at about nine pounds less. Tracy Cox will meet Taylor here in the near future, it is said. Cox will perform in next Tuesday’s main go at the Armory against Midget Mike O'Dowd, veteran Columbus (O.) featherweight. Lou Vine, Chicago lightweight, made a quick job of beating Marty

Schmeling, Stribiing hign tor I ltle s>crap German to Defend Heavy Crown in June, Date and Site to Be Named Later; Winner Agrees to Battle Camera in September. BY HENRY MTEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jan. 14.—Max Schmeling vs. Young Stribiing for the heavyweight championship of the world somewhere in the United States, sometime in June. The winner to defend his title against Primo Camera somewhere in America in September. Both of the fights to be promoted by the Madison Square Garden Corporation of Illinois (a subsidiary of the New York concern), with the Milk Fund getting a part of the receipts of the June engagement. Such was the heavyweight boxing situation today as result of a contract signing bee here late Tuesday.
The bee was attended by Joe Jacobs, who signed for Schmeling; “Pa” Stribiing, who signed for his fighting son; Leon Lee and Bill Duffy, who wielded the pen for Carnera; William B. Saxe, president of Madison Square Garden Corporation of Illinois, and a roomful of lawyers. The elder Stribiing and the Carnera board of control also signed papers giving the Illinois corporation first call on the sendees of their fighters in 1932 in case either one displaces Schmeling as champion. Sites for the two fights will be announced ninety days before the bouts are held. Chicago, Jersey City and Detroit all are being considered with Chicago, the likely site of the June bout and Jersey City of the September affair. The bouts, according to officials, were signed on the customary championship basis, 37 Vi per cent for the champion, 12 % per cent for the challenger. The Madison Square Garden Corporation, which will handle both fights, was formed by the late Tex Rickard preceding the second Dempsey-Tunney fight there in 1927. The organization has not been active since that time, but it is understood that it will be reorganized with the backing of many prominent Illinois citizens. PEAKS INVADE PERU Indianapolis Deaks travel to Peru tonight to oppose Peru Merchants, who recently defeated Strauss Says. Hill, Thompson, Demmary, Fisher, Williams and Patterson will compose the local squad on this trip. Francis Cullivan is manager of the team and Ralph Eberhardt i3 business manager.
Stone, Detroit, scoring a knockout in the fifth round. Stone’s handlers tossed in a towel as their boy was on the verge of passing away for the evening. Vine had dynamite in his right hand and had Stone on the floor twice in the fourth round, the bell saving Stone. In the fifth Vine resumed his violent attack and Stone soon was flattened again, and the towel from his corner ended the fracas, giving Vine credit for a k. o. victory. Other results Tuesday: Charlie Arthurs, Chicago heavyweight, substituted for Billy Rhodes against Chunk Ewing, Terre Haute, anc inished with a snade edge in six rounds. Ewing had a big advantage in weight ana stormed and plunged around the ring in the manner of a wrestler. Both heavies ■were exhausted. Arthurs’ punching was sharper, but the steam wasn’t there. Red Holloway. Indianapolis, outpointed Glen Nidy. Terre Haute, in six rounds Nidy went good in the third stanza, but after that Holloway made him like it. The four-rounder was between two local novices. Prank Arford and Jimmy Doll, the former winning with room to spare. Arford whacked Doll on the nose in the first session bringing the blood and it flowed the remainder of the scrap. Arfora held the advantage in reach and used

laughing? Well, he knows that eight other teams, including Bedford, have failed to beat Shortridge, and if his boys can do it, then he will have a good laugh coming. And will he fake it? And, how, teacher. Shirtrodge doesn’t think Mr. Curtis will laugh much longer. Mr. Curtis used to laugh a great deal. He still smiles most of the time, but his laughs are fewer and farther between this year. We thing he’ll have to postpone his laugh for a week. Martinsville plays Bloomington on Jan. 23. That should provide him with a real laugh. That is all for today, class. nan TODAY’S SPECIALS Tech and Shortridge clash in a first round, Saturday afternoon game in the city tournament and who are you to complain—Think of the poor treasury departments—such things as these bring on depressions. Anyhow, Manual, Broad Ripple and Washington might have pulled a few surprises before it was all over, so why not have this Shortridge-Tech thing out at the start. Shelbyville beat Greencastle by only two points—the presence of a couple of Stones makes the Tiger team a rocky road to travel—ask Martinsville. Crawfordsville walloped Clinton, and maybe we’ve been overlooking something In Crawfordsville and we don't mean Wabash college.

The worm has turned. Watch out!” nun Dear Backboard—Some of these letters written by Shortridge Lils and Pills made me hot enough to write and say that Tech is not as bad as they make us out to be and neither are Manual.

It looks like a storm's brewing in the south, sir. And who knows, maybe something else is brewing in the south, and we like ours with lots of foam. 000 Dear Backboard—This is the first. It seems that certain Shortridge persons are under the impression they will beat Tech. Shortridge has a better team this year than ever before. I’ll admit, and Tech Isn’t so strong, but don't forget.
