Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.—The lootball coaches did a little fightfog back on their own today. I wouldn’t say they fought back with knockout punches (the counter assault consisted largely of deft left jabs), but the procedure at least had the element of novelty. Up to now all the fighting has been on the other side. A committee ot coaches headed bv I.ou Little of Columbia set out to find out for themselves if there was really anv truth In all this talk about foobali being overemphasized. and it is not exactly a stunning surnrlse to learn from the coaches’ vcrv own Investigation that the report, like Sandlno s death and the return of Prosperity, is grossly exaggerated. Very decidedly football is not overemphasized and the coaches would like to know how the reformers—a group which includes academicians, student editors and Carnegie Foundation workers—get that wav. The crystal clear truth is that there are a lot of other extra-curricular activities In college life that are over-em-phasized a great deal more. Mr. Little and the aids figure in flack and white to prove that football occupies only a moderate amount of the students’ life. I’here are infreauent exceptions but the gentlemen feel that to condemn football as a whole because of these exceptions would be like condemning ”a religious or political Institution in its entirety because some official was lax in (lie performance of his duty." Boy. rhat s telling ’em! Specifically. Mr. Little’s survey reveals that the football man .spends 109 hours playing, practicing and listening to lectures during the year. This is only one more hour than the basketball plaver devotes to his sport, and only three rrtore hours than the track and field man puts In. But in comparison with some of the other collegiate enticements It’s lust a lew split seconds. How long do you think Dick Glendon makes his crew men work for him at the same university at which Mr. Little is U o football coach? The figures chow that the crew men toll at the sweeps 186 hours a year. And has the spectator, or the Nacomhs. said anything* about that terrible crime? Mv. mv. mv! The things you find out when,vou go snooping around the wet wash. a tt u NOR Is that all. Young dramatists devote much more time to their art than the footballers—a matter of twenty-three hours or more, in fact. And even the embryonic Clarence Darrow put in harder licks, measured in terms of time, developing the mental acrobats of debating than the Hewitts and the Broths. Can you bear it? But. hold on, vou ain’t heard nothing Vet. The student editors (and how it must have pained Mr. Little to Include this item In his survey i top the entire field In overemphasis. They spend 241 hours a year in the print shops or considerably more than twice the time a football player serves awav from the class rooms. So what? Well, if overemphasis is to be measured on the basis which the coaches have elected to measure it. football certainly does not dominate a student’s life. But of course, that Is inly one phase of the situation, and it may be that It Is not a particularly important one. Such practices as proselyting recruiting scholarships and gratuities are not touched upon in Mr. Little's paper, and these arc the things which have drawn the bulk of criticism. Perhaps the coaches look upon them—as apparently most university presidents do—as necessary evils, If indeed, they are to be looked upon as evils at nil. I imagine vou will have proselyting and all that goes with it as long as vou have football, and since it does not seem precisely to strike at the very roots of the social scheme of civilization, the disposition of the coaches calmly to ignore the whole problem may be both correct and Intelligent.

Badgers Boast Rangy Squad; Second Division Berth Looms

(Following Is the seventh of a series discussing: prospects or 1931-32 Western Conference basketball teams.) BY JOHN B. MILLER United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Dec. 29.4-University of Wisconsin basketball teams coached by Dr. Walter E. Meanwell have won or tied for nine Big Ten titles during the regime of the "little doctor.” They have fallen below the select first division only three times in the past twenty-four years. Consequently, the present Badger team—big men but with little experience—should do considerably better than last year’s squad which landed in seventh place with Chicago For the first time in several years the squad is tall, but the giants are slow in picking up Meanwell’s style

—Stove League Chatter — BY EDDIE ASH

CHICAGO newspaper men whose duty next spring will be to accompany the White Sox on their training trip are looking forward to a tough assignment, owing to announcement by Lew Fonseca, new manager, that his team would play no exhibition games with big league clubs and very few with minor league outfits. After a few days in any training camp it's a difficult task for the scribes to write fresh news and the exhibition games always are welcomed as life savers. Moreover, big league scriveners obtain their best material and dope when their nine opposes another major aggregation. 000 The FhiUv Nationals have an exaecerated opinion of what constitutes important news. They made three “deals” last week and were described as "crashing into the headlines” by the series of transactions, so called.” One of the "deals” consisted of signing pitcher Bill Hargrove, a Class A minor league free agent. Another "deal” was the release of catcher George Rensa. Still another "deal” was trading ontfielder Buts Arlett to Baltimore for Russ Scarritt. a flv chaser who couldn’t make good with the Boston Red Sox. 0 0 0 The Arlett-Scarrltt trade bears the earmarks of a misdeal with Arlett receiving undeserved demotion, especially when used in exchange for a nlaver of Scarritfs tew rating. Scarritt olaved with three teams tins vear. Boston. Chattanooga and Baltimore. and failed to hit 300 anvwhcre along the line, whereas Arlett walloped National League pitching for an average of .313. The big Buzz collected 131 hits in 121 games, including 26 doubles. 7 triples and 18 home runs. According to Phillv elub officials, slow fielding caused the release of Arlett. On the other hand the Orioles are elated and believe they put across a smart trade, and nredict Buzz will lead the International League for high average and in slugging honors. 000 ARLETT played In the Pacific Coast League thirteen years before his club w’ould sell him to the majors and after reaching the goal of all ball players he was let out after one season. His owners in the coast loop kept the sale price on him too high to bring about his graduation during his youthful years, and age and weight handicaped him when a deal finally was closed. From the standpoint of fairness. the big fellow was entitled to another trial before being returned to the minors. 000 A basketball team made up of members of tho Philadelphia Athletics has been ordered to disband bv Connie Mack and the bovs will have to hang up their shorts and rubber slippers after one more game. Wednesday night. The boss of the Athletics decided the net sport Is too risky for high-priced bsseball players. Athletics who have been pounding the hardwood on eastern eourts are George Earnshaw. Walt* Hoyt. Mule Haas, Jimmie Foxx. Jimmie Dykes and Lew Krausse. Jim Peterson, sold recently by the Athletics to Ptl*nd, organised the team.

COAST FANS BOOST TROJAN ODDS AGAINST TULANE

13 Points Offered Southern California Rooters Confident of Win in Rose Tilt. BY GEORGE H. BEALE I'nitrd Press Staff Correspondent PASADENA, Cal., Dec. 29.—The particular brand of enthusiasm that permits the Southern Californian to become a rabid booster of local products has been turned on the New Year’s day football game with the likely result that Southern California will be favored heavily over Tulane university Friday. A definite trend in that direction was noted today in a survey of betting commissioners, all of whom reported that, despite records of the respective contenders, money was being offered on Southern California at Increasingly longer odds. May Go Higher Where two days ago the coast conference champions were backed to win by seven points at even money, thirteen points were being offered today, with the indication the scale would go up if the weather clears. The fact Tulane swept undefeated through its long schedule to become Southern Conference champions and the Trojans were tripped once during the season was no curb on Southern California enthusiasm. The same trend to Southern California was noted just previous to the Georgia game Georgia had no such impressive record as has Tulane and those who watched the Bulldogs in practice felt their lack of weight made it certain they could not stop the heavy Trojans. Tackle to Tackle However, it is even probable Coach Bernie Bierman’s line will outweigh the Trojan forwards from tackle to tackle when the whistle blows in Rose Bowl Jan. 1. Western writers were impressed in the short glimpse they had of the Tulane team in practice. Southern California should be a slight favorite, but certainly there is no reason for any extravagant odds. PITT CAGERS MAROONED. By Times Special BERKELEY, Cal., Dec. 29. Pittsburgh university’s basketball squad was marooned by a snowstorm Monday night aboard a passenger railway train near Truckee, Cal., and forced to cancel its Monday game with Southern California.

of play. He is “inventor” of the short pass offense and the five-man defense. Meanwell’s word is that the team will be hard to beat as the season advances. “We’ll make it tough for any of them,” he predicted. The Badgers are not expected to be more than a second division team, however. Five lettermen are back—Captain Marvin Steen. Bobby Poser Columbus and Russ Tornowske. forwards: Doug Nelson and Chris Steinmetz Jr., guards. Meanwell has four centers but three 'ire sophomores and the fourth played little last season. Rov Oakes. Aurora, 111., is the first string center. Prospects are Bill Binning. Stan Rewev and Wavne Kastine. Dwight Swan. 6-foot 2-inch sophomore, has first call at one forward post. Two other candidates. Carl Vaciek and Milt Bocek. are over six feet tall. Guard prospects include Rav Wichman. Ken Rvchman. Gerald St. Peter. Bert Smith and Richard Haussman. In preliminary games. Wisconsin walloped Brigham Young university. Rockv mountain chamnions. 30 to 16. nosed out Pittsburgh, another champion .-last year. 30 to 29. and lost to Marauette university. 26 to 23.

Several years ago when the Indianapolis Indians were in training at Bogalusa, La., the town boys there challenged the Tribe pastimers to meet the them in a basket battle and the ex-collegians and ex-high schoolers with the Hoosiers accepted tne defy and hurrriedly organized a quintet. Jack Hendricks was Tribe manager at the time and William C. Smith was club owner. They consented to the game, thinking it would break the monotony of camp life and supply the boys with a little extra exercise. The contest developed into a rough house and the Indian officials were kept in hot water as they saw their salaried pastimers tripping, falling and crashing around the floor. It was a night of strife, with the building shaking at times, as the players hit the walls. No more net games were played by the Hoosiers, and fortunately, none of the ball players was crippled badly in that one fracas. BROOKLYN has decided to keep pitcher Dazzy Vance for at least one more year. He has been on the market since the close of the season, but no attractive offers were received and Manager Max Carey reached the conclusion it would be better to gamble and permit the big fellow to try a comeback. Carey left for Florida Monday night to enjoy a vacation and td visit Vance and endeavor to reach an agreement on salary. Dazzy drew something like $23,000 in 1931 and will have to stand for a big reduction. 000 Lefty Gomez, star young lefthander with the New York Yankees, has demonstrated he has remarkable control for a southpaw pitcher. He was in forty games this year, pitched 243 innings and issued only 85 walks. He was charged with one wild pitch and hit four batsmen.. Recently, in California. Gomez went out on the golf links and gained membership in the hole-in-one club by sinking an ace shot. Perhaps that feat is further proof of Leftv’s control, but golfers will tell you otherwise. Anyway, Gomez is in a position to do some boasting when the Yankee boys gather in training camp next spring. 0 0 0 Chuck Klein captured the slugging crown of the National League this year by hitting for 347 total bases in 594 times at bat. His percentage was .{>B4. The slugging average is not to be confused with hitting average. His batting average was .337, obtaining 200 hits. To compute the "slugging average” divide the total bases by times at bat. 347 bv 594. He collected 125 singles. 34 doubles. 10 triples and 31 home runs. Regular batting average is obtained by dividing number of hits by number of times at bat. In Klein’s record. 200 by 594. OFFICIAL DERBY DATE LOUISVILLE. Ky„ Dec. 29.—The date of Saturday, May 7, for the next running of the Kentucky Derby was made official here Monday by the state racing commission. The turf classic will be run one week before the Preakness in Maryland. Churchill Downs spring meeting will open April 30 and close May 21.

OFF THE BACKBOARD by vern boxell

DRESSING room kibitzers had a big n ght. of it up at Muncie last Saturday. For a broken-down columnist whose tonsils already are beginning to sag, the chinning festivities provided more fodder than the basketball game. 000 When such chinncrs as Pete Jolly. Everett Case. Tim Campbell. Mose Pruitt, Hugh Vandiver. Johnny Schram. Ee-Eye Higgs, Chic Yarbrough and Master Robert Stranahan, to mention a few. get tangled up in one or two dressing rooms, everything from basketball, its cause and effects and why. to the price of yo-yos in China, come up for discussion. 000 And one of the chief topics was "how long can thev stand the pace”—meaning, of course. Anderson and Muncie. With less than a third of the campaign passed, these two teams are driving at tourne.v-time speed. 0 0 0 Pete Jolly’s Bearcats and Everett Case’s Indians played three games each last week. Each administered sleeping powders to the other, and in between. Muncie whoppoed Washington and Anderson floppoed to Frankfort, 000 THAT’S just the beginning. Tonight the Purple-clad Magic City snipers take on Bedford at Muncie. The Stonecutters, in case your memory is short, tossed Newcastle’s victory string into one of the limestone quarries down in them thar hills last week, and even if they did lose to Bloomington and three or four other guys, Charley (Poison) Ivey’s hardwooders are going to give the Bearcats lots of basketball tonight. 000 A brief rest, and the Mann and boys of Muncie will be the big-team-we-all-wjDt-to-beat in the round-robin tournament at I.ogansport Friday, in which they probably will trade punches again with Anderson. Then comes Alexandria—and the Tigers are as tough as they make ’em—in a charity game on Jan. 5 at Muncie. followed by Tech on Jan. 8. 000 Meanwhile. Mr. Case’s Indians will be tomahawking around a bit. The Anderson pastimers get a rest until next Triday. when they play in the Logansport tourney. After that. Case hopes to even the score with Frankfort on Jan. 8. and make it two in a row over Marion on Jan. 9. 000 , Officiating, that duty which the bozo with the whistle is hired to perform, came in for a scorching at the hot stove gathering. It seems some of the old tooters are getting what the cauliflower clan ’alls “punch drunk.” Some of the old reliables are going to seed, and the newly-planted seeds are not developing *-erv rapidly or satisfactorily. 000 Ole’ Backboard is the last guy to ride the referee. At the least, thev have a most difficult and thankless lob. But &ken> the whole and large, officiating has seen better days. Mavbe there’s too many rules now. Or mavbe the use of two or three officials is making it look twice or thrice as bad. as it were. _ , 000 boys who watched the Munrie-An-derson tussle had no kick coming. Johnnv SfiT™!" i an< !

Robert Schuhmann, brilliant forward, is playing his third year as regular forward for the Windy City quintet. He was a member of the great 1929-30 team which won thirty-four consecutive games. He is a fine shot and great floor worker. James Hogan, right, lanky sophomore, has cinched a regular forward assignment and is one of the club’s leading scorers.

With six consecutive triumphs, Loyola of Chicago - invades Butler fieldhouse to battle the Bulldogs at 8 p. m. tonight. Butler also is unbeaten in five stars.

hospital. And with the block, tightlywoven defenses and bitter rivalry, that was unite a task. SLIM BAUSMAN, who also got an eyeful of that Anderson-Muncie thing, has other worries right now. Mr. Bausman, who is slim ' like Stretch Murphy is fat, is taking his Hot Dogs down to Lebanon tonight to battle Butch Neuman’s Tigers. And anybody who cares to battle Mr. Neuman’s Tigers now is taking unto himself quite a job. The Lebanon kitty has grown into quite a ferocious tabby—and Lebanon always did like to beat Frankfort. 000 Jeffersonville is coming north to show the old-timers up this way just how this basketball business should be run. Os course, down on the Ohio river. Cathedral is getting little attention. Alexandria’s fancy victory string has caught the Red Devils’ eyes, and they’re out to snap it. Jeff also is unbeaten—but all this talk about two undefeated auintets playing at Alex next Saturday may be a trifle wet after Joe Dienhart’s Cathedral boys set through with the Francismen Friday afternoon out at the north side gym. Yes. sir. that’s a threat. 0 0 0 Mr. H. T. McCulough’s Shelbyville boys stepped out and clouted the Greensburg Pirates on the chin last Saturday, which means that they are going to be hard for Greencastle’s Tiger Cubs to get along with tonight. Gunning and Lackey are the big noises of the Shelby five, and Dawson, Hurst, Stone and McAnally are veteran pastimers with state tourney experience out seeking bigger and better laurels for Greencastle. Central of Ft. Wayne broke down in front of the Tiger Cubs Saturday, 23 to 20. Mr. Frank Newsom’s Columbus Bulldogs also are on the title trail, according to our old friend Bob Gordon, and tonight they’re out to socko Bloomington, which isn’t so hard some times and then extremely difficult the next night, ’cause Bloomington’s that way. The Panthers thumped Bedford and then got an awful lacing at Vincennes. It looks like Columbus tonight.
