THE big drive 1* on! All over Indiana, the prep basket mentors are putting the pressure on their boys. Several of the leaders have been “un-laxed” for the last week or two—some of them haven’t been pushed at any time this season But from now on every lick counts—and it appears there will be plenty of licks, most of them needed. For Instance, Friddle of Washington and Case of Frankfort already have inaugurated secret practice sessions.' Tim CampbeH’6 proteges are beginning to show the effect* of long and hard work, and Wells, Curtis, Crown and others have brought their teams along noticeably in the last w%ek. Muneie Is due about any day now. tt n tt With Feb. 16 drawnig near, it might be a wise thing to get this picking business imder way. Wise or unwise, there are about twenty teams in the state that must be considered before the preliminary eliminations. Here goes, and take them or leave them—we’ll leave nineteen of them on Feb. 16. Frankfort IToraee Mann <Gary) Washington Delphi Shelbyrllle Greencastle Monete Anderson Z Newcastle Laporte Vincennes Martinsville Franklin . Kokomo Shortridge erp <lndian*nollri Greensburg tor*nsppr,t . Bedford tt tt tt J When Is Philadelphia not Philadelphia? when It s Pittsburgh That’s a correc- - lon ,o .r Tuesday’s error. If you didn’t •jotlee it. don’t mind it. B tt tt Coaefe Neuman of Lebanon suspended three of his players for failure to observe training rules. It was a drastic move, but U rarely has been known to fall to aid the spirit and moral of the team, learn members and the youth InyolTed. a a tt 'Delphi has the best fan spirit and sportsmanship of any community we ever fty* visited.’’ says Norm Werry of Gary following the recent Horace Mann Invasion df the Oracle town. And that’s quite a compliment In these days. tt tt it OVER at Union City, they’re sing the praises of a young man by the name of Fisher, 6 foot 6 inch center. With Lair out of the picture, this boy looms up as a good piece of copy. He’s fast, clever and an accurate shot, they say, and has collected 48 field goals in the last four games. Blair Guillon, coach and official, says Fisher is one of the best centers he's seen in action this year—and he’s seen quite a few, a a b "We’ve got the cannon at Tech, so we oan shoot ah the ’Bulleits” they’ve got at ’Shortridge.” saTs Dorothy of Tech. Tscl 'Fse! tt tt a Now is the time for all good men at Tech to be thinking about Anderson—ihortrldre is still four week; away, at the very least. tt tt tt Iraa Oub comes through with some highpowered press-agenting for Greencastle. Oreencastle doesn't need it—actions speak louder than words. tt tt it Following the precedent of college jtudents who won’t shave until the bovs come through with a victory for ‘‘old Siwash.” Shortridge Lil has threatened, promised or agreed not to write again until Shortridge wins a game "which will be Friday. I hope." And that’s punishment! IT’S tough for Jeffersonville that the University of Chicago decided to abandon its annual national intercholastic cage tourney this year, or there might have been a Hoosier champ. ’Tis 6aid Detroit university may sponsor such an event, and if so, Jeff’s Demons, Lair, Weber, Raush and all, will be there tt tt a Note for Optimist Cluub—Ed Broulllette, Washington (Ind.) scribe, has made his hotel reservations for the state tournament. But reservations' are always cancelable. especially if Vincennes happens to decide about regional time that Fete Ellis •ihould come to Indianapolis. (Quit dreaming. Backboard). tt tt tt Wingate and Crawfordsville tangle Saturday night. Fifteen or eighteen years ago, the writers would have called that a “classic.” That’s when these two outfits just about had.their own way, cagically speaking, v a a How do you account for the actions of a coach when he keeps his two star forwards on the bench until the fourth quarter. and then sends them in • with- the team 20 to 13 behind? That’s what Palmer Soonsler of F.ichmond did at Anderson. Richmond lost. ff tt tt Over at Greensburg. the star performers a!re Don and Dal Gilliland. Which should <nsp!re the song writers to write a little ditty about. "Oh. Gilliland. Sweet Gilliland." VIMMY DOSS, wfio dished out J sports dope up at FT. Wayne in the “good old days,” but who now is part of The Times’ corps hobnobbing with the legislators over at the Capitol building, ha* the following to say about the hearing held on the Friedley bill: "Public hearing by senate Judiciary B committee on the Friedley bill to wrest control of high school athletics from the Indiana High School Athletic Association served only to solidify the prestige of the association and A. 1. Trester, its commissioner, and to provide an obstacle to any stature attack on their opponents. ) "Impersonal listeners to testimony which resulted in the committee killing the bill by a 9-1 rote commented freely on the incut manner in which the prosecutions’ agse wws handled. ."Four of the five witnesses for the bill were residents of JeHersonrlUe, recently qpsted from the association for a year and njost of them were unable to conceal their raffled feelings. Instead of arguing in epTor of the Friedley bill, they used the hearing to vent their rancor against the .ihs<xd*tfor> sod antagonised the committee early In the proceedings. "The ‘prosecution* apparently overlooked what appeared to he a vulnerable spot la the ‘defense’ case. Testifying as president of the association, composed of some eight hundred high schools, Floyd I. McMurray, Lebanon, replied In answer to questioning that Columbia City high sabool had been suspended because es trouble within the sebeol between officials.' and not because of Ineligibility, as la the rase of Jeffersonville. No one of the antl-Trester delegation seized this chance to ask MeMnrTay why the Columpjc city athletes should be barred from competing with nelghberlng schools because of trouble among eehaol beads.” MERCHANTS TRIP DEAKS Five Rallies in Last Half to Triumph Indianapolis Deaks 106 t a hardfOught tilt to Noblesville Merchants Wednesday, 30 to 26. Deaks stepped into a 19 to 9 advantage In the first half, but lost in the final minutes of play. Accurate shooting, hard driving and,some fine play by Polizotto gave Merchant* victory. Thompson Vila beet for the losers.

BUTLER CAGE SQUAD SHAKEN BY INELIGIBILITIE'S

Three Reserves Lost; Four More Uncertain Reynolds, Vet Reserve, Lost for Season; Chadd Takes Special Exam; Bert Davis to Play in Friday Contest, Butler s Bulldogs, who Kill be seeking their twelfth victory in thirteen starts when they oppose the Centenary college team at the fieldhouse Friday night, gained one player, but lost three or more today through ineligtbility. Bert Davis, former Tech star, is eligible and will compete In Friday’s contest at a forward berth, it was announced. With Davis joining the squad, it is possible that the nair of forwards who aided Tech high school to gain the finals of the state prep tourney two years ago may be seen in action together for the Hinklemen. Ray Miller, his former teammate, has played at the regular forward berth throughout the early part of the season, and is expected to break into Friday’s game despite an injury received on the recent road trip. •

Rex Back

. - Rex Moffett Greencastle, ind., Feb. 3. ■When De Pauw university’s Tigers take the floor against University of Cincinnati here, Saturday night, Rex Moffett, one of two regulars left from last year, will be back at his old post at forward, after an absence of nearly two months, due to an injury. Moffett, who is an Indianapolis boy, and brother of coach Donovan Moffett, has not played since Dec. 13, when he received an injury in practice scrimmage. The game with Cincinnati will be the first home tilt that the Tigers will play against Buckeye conference competition.

Cruising in Sportland

CONTRARY to the belief of some of the big league scribes, the new balls being manufactured for use in the National and American leagues during the 1931 season are alike in every way except in the weight of the cover. The junior loop will use the same cover £s formerly while the senior circuit will use a heavier cover. The cork center w r ill remain. The stitching will be raised on the balls in both leagues and the thread will be coarser. Size and total weight of the spheres will be the same as in other years. The new balls are expected to have greater wind resistance and also allow the pitchers to obtain a firmer grip on the horsehide. It’s a good guess the big sweaters with the power will be hampered but little in getting distance when they connect properly, but there may be a difference in the case of the lightwight pastimers. At any rate, the pitchers are expected to benefit and if some of the “rabbit” really has been removed from the nellets. the diamond will be mad* safe tor the infielders. When Connie Mack decided to strengthen his reserve force for the coming campaign he brought sunlight into the careers of Phil Todt and John Hevmg. Playing with the Boston Red Sox cellar dwellers, waivers were asked on them recently and the veteran Athletic pilot claimed the athletes. At first it was thought they soon would be on the way to the minors but late reports from Philadelphia say Mack intends to keep the P * ai j wIU sub for Jimm y Foxx at first base and Heving will understudy Mickey Cochrane back of the plate. What a break! The pastimers were picked off a tailend team and placed with the world’s champions. Furthermore, the said champs look good enough to repeat this year as American League title holders.

CINCINNATI’S opening game this season, April 14, with the Cardinals supplying the visiting attraction, will go on the air and efforts will be made to gain permission to broadcast Sunday and holiday games in the Queen City. Broadcasting was banned at Redland last season. Barney Dreyfuss, Pittsburgh presi- ; dent, not long ago was discussing j first basemen past and present and somebody said he referred to Gus Suhr as a second Hal Chase. Suhr got wind of Barney’s kind words and returned his contract unsigned, demanding more money. ART SHIRES was a victim of his own promises recently and got in bad with one of the Milwaukee newspapers. Two dailies with radio stations announced he would go on the air and naturally he was compelled to disappoint one- It was j embaiAassing all round Mickey Cochrane, famous Athletic catcher, was overweight in the spring of 1930. This year the staris underweight, he says, by many pounds. Too much saxophone. It was a musical winter for Mickey and i he even tried his hand at poetry. Perhans he’s brooding over the poetry. PACIFIC coast clubs are grabbing off youngsters right and left from colleges, high schools and the sandlots. The owners out there have had unusual success in selling stars to the majors for top prices and each team will have a swarm of kids on hand when the clubs start training this spring. Coast news- : papers are liberal when it comes to boosting the youngsters, Mike Kelley of the Minneapolis Millers has notified his players the first salary figure offered this year | will stand. Times are too tough to engage, in bickering, he says. Last spring' Elmer Yoter, third sacker, held out on Mike until the afternoon of the opening game. Babe Ruth will head for Florida bv water Saturday and will take light exercise on the east coast before going to the Florida west coast to Join the Yankees at St. Petersburg. The will golf ar.d swim around Miami until reporting time for baseball. He has booked passage on the Shawnee, New York to Miami. Tore VVarne, national coUeglaie champ pole vaulter, is reported lost to the Northwestern track squad. He received a fractured ankle last summer during the National A. A. C. meet and the Injury has retarded his form. He may drop out of college In order to be eligible next season. The phenom pole vaulter bails from Kokomo, Ind., and la captain of the Northwestern squad. Arranging feature boxing matches Is no easy task Ask any matchmaker of a club with prestige to uphold. Many boxers won't meet certain opponents, or rather *f e i r teenagers lodge objections fearing their boys will lose and suffer a lowered • to ether words a match that looks good .o the matchmaker vhj has his customers to please won't took good to tht pilots of the lurfi who are sought. It’s that way all uver the country. Champions are willing to fight certain boys it their title Is not- at stake and matchmakers often ere et-> loss to bring ebout a feature attraction v*eic in and week out* An-

Three other members of the Blue squad, one of them, Cleon Reynolds, a veteran of three years, were ruled ineligible for the remainder of the campaign due to scholastic difficulties. Ben Parrisn, another member of the famous Tech team, who was counted on to serve as a reserve guard, and Gulling, a forward, were the others lost to the squad. Four members of the team, including Howard Chadd, stellar guard and one of the leading scorers, may not see action Friday pending returns on special examinations. Harry Chickadantz, speedy sophomore forward; Wolfe, elongated reserve center, and Hutsell, reserve forward, were the others in this class. In case of failure in the special exams, the players will be dropped for the rest of the season. With Lyle Withrow, star forward, out with an ankle injury, probably for the rest of the season, Coach Tony Hinkle faces the difficult task of rebuilding his team. In addition to Davis and Miller, Hinkle will have Arbuckle and Bailey, neither of whom has seen much service this season, available for the forward assignments. Profitt probably will retain his center assignment, but with Wolfe temporarily out, the Blue coach must seek a capable understudy. The floorguard assignment is a problem and a wide open battle among several reserves is expected, with Tackett secure in the backguard berth. The wrecking of the Butler team recalls a similar occurrence last season when Hinkle’s powerful squad was wrecked in midseason by injuries and ineligibilities.

WITH EDDIE ASH

other thing, many well known boxers are grouped In stables under the same management and a matchmaker is compelled to watch his step to avoid having something put over on him. Yes, the grief Is piling up for the fight clubs. According to late news from the west coast a well known bone cracker out there has restored the pitching power of Charlie Root, Chicago Cub'righthander who flopped in the latter part of the 1930 season. It seems the west coast “doc” discovered the kink that knocked Charlie off form and now Root believes he'll win at least twenty games this year. Third baseman Lester Bell of the weak throwing arm has been turned over to the same specialist. BUD TAYLOR SIGNS By Times Special PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 5. Bud Taylor, Terre Haute (Ind.) featherweight, has been signed to oppose Benny Bass, junior lightweight champion, in a ten-round non-title bout here Feb. 16.
