TT comes to light today that your pinch-hitting correspondent Is ft boop. a sap, a dumbbell, a ninny. i. traitor, a double-crosser and a number of other things to boot. At least, I am all of those if I am to take seriously the remarks of the boys and girls who noticed Wednesday that I picked Technical to win the city series. Prognostication In itself is no legal crime, but the consensus is that I have not done right by our little Shortridge. There we were, enshrined In the heart of the “Shortridge Lll” as a good fellow and a smart fellow. But what does Frank Barnett, the *‘Lil,” say today. He’s brokenhearted. He wants “good old Boxcll” back on the job right away. Frank is wild. "You from Shortridge.” he says, "and when the time finally arrived that S. H. S. has a good chance of beating Tech, you pick Tech. Hiss! Hiss!" Just imagine Frank standing before me and hissing, “You traitor.” a a a Vow. Fran* 1 right In one tray. Short* ridge has the season's record. On paper, the boys tn blue should win. There are other reasons, too, they should win. Technical's basketball team doesn't like to run wild tn pre-tournament tourneys. That means In events staged before the sectionals and regional*.

But Technical is Improving steadily and gaining tn power. Snortridge Is due to ■lump Just a little. The teams in a cltj tournament are matched almost evenly. Except, perhaps that Shortridge's offense isn t what It fs touted to be. Heckman is the only man on the team with the fireawav 6tvle of getting points. And Shortridge needs one backguard—Just one. That’s a reason. a tt tt FRANK doesn’t know that I’m from Manual, too. And, he doesn’t know that I would have picked Manual If the draw hadn’t been so much against them. One young Reiser, nicknamed “Bill Burwell,” thinks Manual’s going to win the tournament. They might at that, draw and all. The southstders have a fine, tough little ball club. They have a fine forward in little Nate Regenstrief and a great back guard in Carl Hanna. And on top of that they have that little thing we once called “Manual fight.” It’s something that has to do with the school’s slogan of “We can, we must, we will.” I’ll take Manual for sheer light and spirit. That’s what you’ll see in the -tournament. A Shortridge team, loaded with color; a Tech team, full of power, and a Manual team, fighting for every point. a tt tt Dick Miller, the genial Times’ correspondent, sometimes referred to as '‘rotund," Journeyed to Munclo Wednesday night to see Ball Teachers and Danville Normal go ‘‘round and round.’* Today he wanted to warn Indiana fans not to get too hasty and start awarding state championships before taking a peek at Danville. Dick thinks DanviUe ought to play Butler. flow about it Butler? What do you say DanviUe? tt tt tt A certain Washington, Ind.. gentleman thinks we got “downright nasty" In talking about the state champions the other day. They're not big-headed, he says, and they’ve haa one or two tough breaks this season. "Thev overrate nothing, concede nothing.” fs his assertion, "and they’ll win "*he state title again.” Maybe you’re right and since you are so certain I'm wrong I'm sorry. tt tt it The storm hasn’t broken yet over that “delayed offense.” I still think Frankfort's system is magnificent.

Kid Berg 3-1 Favorite to Whip Hess in Title Bout

BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Corresisondent CHICAGO, Jan. 22.—With two world champions in midget divisions and a championship fight as a change from programs featuring “clown” heavyweights, Friday night’s boxing show at Chicago stadium promises to attract the largest gate of the season. Jack (Kid) Berg of England, world junior welterweight champion, and featherweight champion Christopher (Bat) Battalino head the card. Berg will risk his title in a ten-round match with Goldie Hess, heavy-hitting Californian, while Battalino will engage in a ten-round nontitle mix with Eddie Shea of Chicago, ranking contender for the 126-pound title. Although the Battalino-Shea bout brings together the nation’s two best featherweights, Berg’s match against Hess is regarded as the feature of the program. Berg, probably the most popular of current-day ringmen, will be

making his first Chicago appearance in more than two years. The whirlwind English fighter is a favorite here, having made seven appearances in Chicago rings in a space of less than two months, and his return has awakened wide interest. The National Boxing Association has recognized the bout as a championship contest although Hess is a legitimate lightweight, and will award a diamond studded championship belt to the winner. Berg, ranked as outstanding contender for both the lightweight and welterweight titles, has been established as a prohibitive favorite to win with odds quoted as high as 3-to-l. The Battalino-Shea contest is regarded as a tossup. Battalino belied suspicions that he was a “cheese champion” when he whipped Kid Chocolate at New York recently and now is regarded as one of the best of current title holders. The little Hartford Italian boasts a hard punch and is a dangerous infighter well able to take care of himself against top-notch competition.

Cruising in Sportland

IN 1922, Red Lucas won twenty-two games for Nashville and was purchased by John McGraw, and Red had two kinds of bad luck in 1923. First he received a bad leg injury and later McGraw told him he was too little to win in the big leagues and shipped him to San Antonio. Red remained with “San Antone” until 1924, when the Boston Braves took him up in the draft, and in Beantown Lucas acted as utility infielder and relief pitcher. Once more Red was dropped out of the majors by transfer to Seattle, but he bounced back again when Cincinnati bought him in the 1925 season, and this time he made good on the big line and stayed. He has won sixty-four games on the mound for the Reds since he was elevated to a mainstay role and moreover he has fiiled in as pinch hitter and helped win other contests with timely hits. His is just another case, of a ball player with a fighting heart who refused to lose courage after twice losing out in the majors.' tt st u tt tt a John McGraw's Giants could use Lucas now and John admits it. The Chicago Cubs also crave his presence on their rdster and no doubt there are other clubs of the same mind despite the fact his 1930 record failed to measure up to his achievements in the seasons preceding. Red was a puzzle to the Pirates when Ownie Bush piloted that club, and once when Cincy permitted him to skip his mound turn on Saturday to save him for the Pirates on Sunday, Bush announced his Buccaneers would step right out and break all the hearts in Redland by pinning back the redhead’s ears. There was no wilting by Lucas, however, and he shut out the heavy-hitting Pirates, 4 to 0.

ERNIE LOMBARDI, the catching | whale purchased the other day from Oakland, Cal., by Brooklyn, no doubt is destined to be the butt of a lot of wisecracks in training camp this spring when he works out with the Robins. It is said his feet resemble scows that would arouse the envy of any harness bull, and his nose—well, they do say it is quite a beak—Rollie Zeider model. a a Lombardi built up his reputation for smacking the horsehide far and often because he is described as a mediocre backstop with a powerful but inaccurate throwing wing. Manager Robinson of Brooklyn and his first lieutenant, Dutch Miller, are former catchers and will take the youth in hand for the polishing process. tt tt a THE breaks were all bad for Tony Freitas this winter. He led Pacific Coast League pitchers last season, hurling for Sacramento. In San Rafael, Cal., on New Year’s day Tony was caught speeding, was fined S2O, jailed for five days and had his driving license revoked. He had been fined S2O for doing the same thing Christmas day and on his second pinch was dragged before the same justice of peace he had promised to pay the first fine, but didn’t. “You’ll pay this time,” the justice chirped icily. n tt n Steve Swetonic, pitching hero of the 1928 Indianapolis pennant winners, is consulting specialists this winter trying to get his arm In shape. It has bothered him since the 1930 season closed and his condition is worrying the Pirates not a little. The ailment is in the elbow. a tt tt John McGraw has reached into high school ranks for a promising first sacker. He is Charlie Wheeler, 17, of Houston, Tex. The youth stands six feet two inches and has built up a reputation for socking the ball. He will report to McGraw in 1932. tt tt a Another Hal Chase has entered baseball, at the university of San Francisco, son of the famous and infamous Hal Chase who starred in the big leagues until placed on the black list charged with gambling. tt tt tt 808 QUINN, president of the Boston Red Sox, has found a name fhr Gene Rye (real name Mercantelli), the pint-sized outfielder who hit three home runs in one inning for Waco during a night game last season.

The word was put out that Wheat would be groomed to step Into Robbie’s Shoes. tt a a DENIAL was made in Chicago today that Willie Kamm will be traded to Cleveland for Lou Fonseca, but it is believed Manager Bush eventually will swing the deal. The Pale Hose pilot is en route to his Indianapolis home from Florida, where he has been vacationing. The sale of Bud Clancy ■to Jersey City leaves the Sox with Ray Radcliffe, a rookie from Selma, and Johnny Watwood to try out for first base. Watwood is an outfielder by trade. a a a Radcliffe has a fine record, hot It was made in the little Southeastern League last year and the jump to the majors no doubt will find him too green to fill the bill. He led his league in batting with a mark of .360. getting 199 hits for 287 total bases. The youth hit fifteen homers. The Sox purchased Radcliffe through the Dallas (Texas League) team that had farmed him with Selma.

Late Spurt Brings Danville Normal Its Eleventh Victory

BY DICK MILLER Times Staff Correspondent MUNCIE, Ind., Jan. 22.—For thirty-one and a half minutes here Wednesday night some 2,500 ardent Cardinal fans, who crammed the Ball Teachers college gym to watch Ball's net battle with Central Normal of Danville, had reasons to hold on their hopes that there would be an end to the chain of consecutive victories of the Danville team which already had been run to ten this season. At that particular stage, the score was 23 all. But right there the story changed, and so did the score. Throughout the second half, Danville held Ball Teachers with out a field goal and the game ended, 35 to 23. Some felt after the game that Muncie quit fighting. Others felt that the team became exhausted. While Muncie’s team about that

Francis Hunter Lines Up With Pro Tennis Troupe

BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—A few more months and this business of turning professional may rank as America’s most distinguished all-time fad. In the short space of six months both golf and tennis have seen their No. 1 and No. 2 stars disappear from the amateur heavens. First it was George Von Elm; then Bobby Jones; then Bill Tilden, and only Wednesday Francis T. Hunter. Who’s next? Hunter’s decision to join Tilden’s professional troupe under the direction of Promoter Jack Curley came as a surprise, for less than a week ago Hunter, an independently wealthy newspaper publisher, openly poo-poohed the idea. It is presumed that the veteran New Rochelle star deserted the Simon* pure ranks out of friendship for Tilden. For the last four years Hunter and Tilden have been inseparable partners on the courts. It was not until Hunter paired with Tilden in 1927 that he became one of the game’s really great players.. Unranked in 1924, ’25 and ’26, Hunter earned the No. 2 position in 1927 and held the. berth through 1929. Owing to business demands Hunter wlil not make the entire tour with Tilden, but will confine his engagements to those matches in and around New York. The pro troupe opens in Madison Square Garden Feb. 18 with Tilden opposed to Karel Kozeluh in the feature match.

Sox Officials Deny Trade of Kamm for Fonseca

By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 22.—Officials of. the White Sox denied today that a trade was being planned whereby they would give Willie Kamm to the Cleveland Indians in exchange for Lou Fonseca. Rumors of the trade were started after it was announced the Sox had released John (Bud) Clancy, first baseman, to Jersey City. The release of Clancy leaves the Sox without a first string first basemen, and it was rumored an attempt would be made to get Fonseca.

Pickerel and Wine Are Signed in Charity Go Local Heavyweight Will Battle Montana Blacksmith in Top Scrap at Cadte, Jan. 30; 40 Per Cent Will Go to Aid Unemployed. Frankie Wine, known to fistic fans as the Montana Blacksmith, will oppose Whiter Pickerd, local heavyweight, in the main go on the charity boxing program at Cadle tabernacle the night of Friday, Jan. 30. They are billed for ten rounds.

Tickets are on sale at the Indianapolis Athletic Club, Columbia Club, I Chamber of Commerce and Clark and Cade drug store in the Claypool hotel.

The Washington A. C. is promoting the charity card and the Emergency Work Committee, Inc., will benefit to the extent of 40 per cent of the gross receipts. A. Kiefer Mayer is chairman of the commiti tee. Sale of tickets is in charge of j the Emergency Work group and j there will be no “free” list. It sponsors a “made work” program, giving work to unemployed men. Wine and Pickerd, both of the aggressive type, are counted upon to supply action. Wine does his fighting out of Youngstown, 0., and local fans will recall when he clipped Chuck Wiggins on the chin, dazing the Hoocier mauler, when they met at Ft. Harrison two seasons ago. Wine has stayed the limit twice with Young Stribling. His recent triumphs were over Emmett Rocco ' and Johnny Parker.

Hunter’s opponent is as yet unnamed, but in all probability will be Vincent Richards. With Tilden, Kozeluh, Richards' and Hunter in the fold, professional tennis boasts four of the most colorful players in the world. Tilden has more “color” than a Christmas necktie, and would draw a crowd were he billed to do nothing more spectacular than play a game of solitaire. Kozeluh with his effortless grace and Richards with his sizzling volley, have proved themselves to be crowd-pleasers. Hunter, known in tennis circles as the man who never is beaten until the last point is scored, is just the type of player to grip the attention of tennis galleries. Possessed of the most powerful forehand stroke in the world and boundless energy, Hunter will draw his share of the crowd.
