2 Trojans Get Berth (Continued From Page 10) team's defeat of Lebanon in the quarter finals and solely was responsible for the great last half offensive drive that enabled his team to ease out a 27 to 23 win over Bosse In the semi-finals. McAnally, the big boy of Greencastle, was awarded the Gimbel prize for best mental attitude. In our opinion, Butterworth shades •Mac” in defensive ability and Redcr shaded him in basket shooting. It must be said in favor of McAnally that he played the last day in pain, it being suspected he had appendicitis instead of a strained side muscle. Janz of Michigan City looked fine in one game and had he played more might have been accorded higher favor. Lester Stout of Winamac was par excellence at the hoop, being high scorer for the tournament and nearly tied the record set by Jack Mann of Muncie last year when he scored Ihirty-ninc points. Hickman of Newcastle was as steady as a clock throughout, the play and gets a shade over Osborne, the human dynamo of Bosse, who worked the floor well and had one specialty shot, the dribble in fast one-handed toss, that was highly effective in all games. Voss of Cicero was a fine shot at the hoop, lacking some in the defensive play, but in our opinion it was White of Newcastle who played wonder ball with little praise being shifted his way because of the shadow of Huffman falling across his performance. Emshwjller was a wonder at hitting the net, Thoman a consistent floor worker and Gocns of Seymour showed evidence of being a great player had he been permitted to play in more games. At floor guard, Dawson was a standout. Boink of Bosse was a fine back guard, overshadowed only by the great Huffman, the standout of the tourney. Walker of Vincennps and Gladden of Tech revealed high-class ability. It is regretted that Gladden, who held Butterworth in tow during the second half of their game, did not get to guard that player in the first half, when he went on a scoring spree over Edwards.
-Pin GossipBY LEFTY LEE Fan* who sympathized with Milt Wimberly when it was rumored he would not receive the A. B. C. award now ran congratulate him. Word was received today from A. 1,. Langtry, secretary of the American Bowling Congress, that Wimberly had been awarded the coveted gold medal for the perfect 30(1 bowling score, rolled in a postponed match in the St. I hillp No. 1 League, recently. BY LEFTY LEE Anew leader appeared in the .singles event of the K. of C. national meet now in progress on the .Pritchett alleys, when John Green of Kansas City, Mo., crashed the maples for a score of 698. The Kansas City star was in rare form during this event, and passed C. Goodrowe, who has held the lead for two weeks, by a margin of thirty pins. Goodrowe dropped to third place, when Frank DeVaney of Springfield, 111., left the drives with a 677 to his credit. Other players to reach the first five in this event were W. Brennan, Chicago, fourth, with 666 and H. Schultz, St. Bernard, 0., fifth, with 665. The best the local stars could show was a 654 by the boy wonder, Johnny Murphy. tt '• a tt Chicago's highly touted teams failed to show the ntn spilling ability for which they are famous, and as a result the Palace Recreations record total of 3.217 never was threatened. The best lotal rolled In this event was a 2.915 count by tbe Hennenin-Shields No. 1 team of Chicago. which gave them second place. Indiana Trucks the local team that Murphy Jed to second place last, week-end with a score of 2,891. now is in third place. Chiefs Five of Dayton, reached fourth position with a total of 2.888. while the local McDaniel Tally Cards are fifth on 2.878. Gilbert and Dunn led the HennepinFhields team to their lofty position with counts of 620 and 615. Leaders remained the same In the doubles event the 1.268 of Norris and Allen of Detroit, proving to be too much for the combinations on the drives over the weekend. Two local boys Jerry O'Grady and Bill Sargent were the best in this class, reaching fourth place on the late Sunday shift with a mask of 1.246. Fifth place also found anew combination, the team of .1 Priler and 11. Krebetke rolling 1,245. Krebetke also assumed the runner-up positron in the all-events plnv with a score of 1,925 over the nine-game route. Allen held third place in this class of plav with 1 997 while Johnny Murphy's 655. 591 and ♦■s4 sets gave him an even 1.900 for fourth Place. The K. of C. national Is Johnny Murphy's first maior tournament, and tt. proved to be the same, as other meets this boy has rolled In all season, the youngster perform]!!" like a veteran at all times, as his average of a fraction over 211 pins per game proves. If Basil Vatiier could have helped Frank Laurk. another local team would have been well up In the prize list, as Lauck tossed a total of 629 to give this combination a total of 1.172. Stieh and Schlimer had 1 170 for their elTorts. Stieh rolling 574 and the ever reliable EVhleimcr. 596 Johnny Rice turned in a prize winner In Ihe singles having a score of 628. L. Dugan also will collect with his 613 total. The banattet feature for visiting K. of C. howlers at the club house on North Delaware Street, is proving popular, and Dr. Paul Kernel, chairman of the entertainment committer, is coming in for his share of praise, all of the visitors going home satisfied that Indianapolis Is a veal tournament citv. and willing to come back the next time this citv Is awarded the meet. One amusing feature at the cluh house Saturday night was the rivalry song fest between the Irish bovs .and the Germans from Milwaukee. The Irish would be getting a good start, oil that "Wild Irish Rose" sons, when the bovs from the Cream Citv would rut in with a good old German tune and drown them out. B\KKR SKTS RECORD Clarence Baker rolling with the Heidrnrrich Florists team, in the 1.090 scratch event on the Uptown alleys, posted anew all-time record lorallv. when he crashed the maples for a three-game total of 805. having counts of 229 278 and 298. Baker had a string of nineteen consecutive strikes during this set. finishing his second came with eight In a row and tossing eleven from the start for his 298 count. The 4QO-doubles sweepstakes on the Illinois allevs were won bv Miller and Wimberly with a great 1.373 count. Miller score 693 during this set and Wimberlv 680. E Heckman and Faust had 1.325 for second place, and Scarborough and Phillips 1.31* to show. WINS SKATE TITLE NEW YORK. March 21.

STOCK SHARES RALLY AFTER EARLY SLUMP Rail Issues Are Leaders in Bull Move: Steel Firms Up.

WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, March 21.—Increasing resistance to selling pressure became apparent in stock market dealings today, the entire market recovering an early setback. Ih the absence of important news developments, the better tone was attributed to the improved technical position of the market. Railroad issues were leaders. With Kreugcr & Toll moving within a narrow' range in dull trading, activitiy was extremely quiet. List Gains Strength Illinois Central, Chesapeake &; Ohio, and Baltimore & Ohio, whose February earnings were in excess of the corresponding month of last year, were leaders of the railroad division, all reaching new high levels on the current movement. Other pivotal issues such as New York Central, Pennyslvania, and Union Pacific were strong. Strength in the railroad issues quickly was followed by rising prices in other sections of the list and small initial losses were soon canceled. Toward noon active professional buying came into a number of special issues, notably Gillette, in which a strong bull group has been operating. Steel Moves Higher Steel common recovered to above ihe 42 level after selling as low as 40* shortly after the opening and corresponding comebacks were made in other industrial and public utility leaders. Selling in the latter issues, which upset the market last week, appeared to be forthcoming, Western Union rising more than 2 points to 41U and International Telephone % point to 8 7 *. American Telephone, Electric Power and Light and National Power and Light rallied from their lows, while on the curb market, Electric Bond and Share issues rebounded briskly from their recent lows.

1931 WORLD TRADE DOWN 27 PER CENT
Only Four Countries Show Favorable Balance for Year. BY HARRY FLORY United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON. March 20. World trade in 1931 decreased by approximately 27 per cent compared with 1930, and by approximately 41 per cent compared with 1929, according to fairly complete figures compiled by the Board of Trade. With the decrease came increased unemployment, increased bread lines in most countries and decreased dividends by business corporations, all contributing to decrease still further the purchasing power of the masses and to make the hoped-for expansion of trade in 1932 still more difficult. Imports into Britain decreased by 16.6 per cent compared with 1930. Exports from Britain decreased by 31.8 per cent. Imports into the United States declined by 32 per cent while exports from the United States declined 37 per cent.

WHEAT MOVES UP ON STRONG FOREIGN NEWS Farm Board Denies Report of Proposed Sales to Europe. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, March 21. —Wheat firmed up as the Board of Trade opened today. Steadiness at Liverpool offset easiness in stocks and with scattered covering on the farm J board's announcement that it did not contemplate sales in Europe or other competing countries, the mar- | ket showed strength. : The raising of the French quota j also was an encouraging factor. ! Corn firm with wheat and oats moved with the major grains. Com Sentiment Bearish At the opening wheat was unchanged to % cent higher corn was unchanged to % cent higher and oats % to % cent higher. Provisions were steady. Liverpool openeed higher and at mid-afternoon was holding % to % cent up. apparently awaiting some further word from America on farm board intentions. Corn is equally as bearish as wheat. Futures made new lows for the season on some deliveries on Saturday. Oats Trade Slow Cash corn was sold at 30 cents for No. 3 yellow, bringing the farmers about 20 cents, depending upon shipping and other marketing costs The movement is expected to be halted temporarily by the turn in the weather. Oats traders have largely stepped out of their lines with cash inter- ! ests buying on the breaks. Consumption xias been moderate. Oats sown in the middle west and southwest are thought to have been damaged by last week's freezes.
