WILDCATS HAVE ‘INSIDE TRACK’ TO BIG TEN CROWN

Looms as Title Five Indiana Only Team in Race Likely to Squeeze Through. Northwestern's undefeated quintet loomed today as an almost certain winner of the Big Ten basketball championship. The Wildcats, with four victories, are the only undefeated team in the conference and are conceded better than an even chance of winning their remaining eight games. Northwestern turned In its fourth victory Saturday, defeating Ohio State, 35 to 22, and now is faced with a two-week holiday during semester examinations, returning to competition Feb. 7. Most of the other schools also will be idle during the next fortnight and only two games are scheduled this week, Ohio State Invading Michigan tonight and Chicago traveling to Minnesota Saturday. Chicago lost its undefeated rankling Saturday in a crushing 41-to-15 defeat by Michigan. Although the defeat is minimized on the Midway because of the absence of Sid Yates, star forward, it virtually ended Chicago’s hopes of finishing among the "first three.” In Saturday's only other game, Wisconsin handed Illinois a 30 to 0 setback. The Badgers displayed improved form and give promise of being an important factor during ihe remainder of the race. Indiana, with three victories and one defeat, is the only quintet likely to challenge Northwestern’s supremacy, but unless Northwestern meets an unexpected defeat, the Hoosiers must be satisfied with second place.

Rivals in Return Go Garden Passes Up Heavies for Berg-Perlick Bout on Friday. BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jan. 26-The heavyweights having failed to draw little more than enough to pay the ushers, Madison Square Garden this week will feature the little fellows on its Friday night card. The program is headlined by a ten-round bout between Jackie (Kid) Berg of England, and Herman Perlick, a couple of lightweights. Should this pair draw a decent-sized house it would not be at all surprising to see boxing’s biggest trading post sidetrack the heavyweights for fighters in the smaller divisions. The fuss Friday night is expected to contain plenty of action as both Berg and Perlick are fast and aggressive and dote on moving forward when the going gets rough. Perlick came within an inch of knocking the Englishman out here last summer and made the fight so close that more boos than cheers greeted the decision. This is Berg’s first start here since he whipped Billy Petrolle —the same Petrolle that trimmed Jimmy McLarnin. Berg is determined to secure another match with Tory Canzoneri, lightweight champion, whom he whipped before the Italian took A1 Singer and the title.

Savoldi Leads Grid Winners By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26.—Football made a belated departure from the Pacific coast Sunday when a picked team, captained by Jumping Joe Savoldi, defeated a team of allstars from St. Mary’s, Stanford and other schools, 13 to 0. Don Moses, former half bac> at Southern California, and Savoldi, scored touchdowns. For the losers, Ernie Nevers, former Stanford star, was outstanding for the fifty-nine minutes of hard football he played. About 25,000 persons attended, receipts going to the Knights of Columbus unemployment fund. ’ 'amusements
