By Eddie Ash Killefer Is on Job at Perry Stadium m m m No Extra Salary for Cadet Grid Coach mum Cuban Veterans Part as Big Leaguers
V\7AI)E KILLEFER, new manager of the Indians, was on VV the job at Perry stadium today collecting the loose strings hanging over from the 1932 season and he will begin at once the reorganization of the Hoosier aggregation for the 1933 campaign. The Tribe field chief resides in California and he has been at his home on the west coast since the big minor league convention at Columbus with the exception of a few days spent at Ft. Worth, where he joined Owner Norman Perry of the Hoosiers in putting through a deal for the purchase of part interest in the Texas League Cats. President Perry was due in the city late today and a conference will be held with Walter Holke, Tribe coach, who is slated to take over the managerial reins at Ft. Worth and endeavor to develop some talent foi the Indians. The Cats will serve as a developing outpost for future Tribesmen although it is said the Ft. Worth team will not be conducted wholly as a ‘‘farm'’ for Perry's American Association club. Manager Killefer and Perry will get busy pronto and mail out contracts to the many pastimer.s on the local roster, and there will be a mixture of bad news and good news placed in the mails. Killefer stated he expects little trouble, in getting the boys lined up, for he believes they realize the problem of depression gamble that is confronting the club owners. There was a heavy batch of applications for jobs from free agents on Killcfer's desk when he reached Indianapolis. Moreover, not many of the players were able to find off-season employment this winter and they are not likely to bicker long over terms. Killcfer’s first move in rebuilding the Indians will be to attempt to snare a capable shortstop and to bolster the mound staff. He has a couple of short fielders in mind and believes he will close a deal within a few days that will take care of that important position. Activity of the Columbus club in obtaining talent as a result of its connections with the St. Louis Cardinals has other teams in the A. A. more or less watchful, and it looks like it's going to become a matter of “keeping up with the Red Birds’’ for seven managers in the league. tt tt tt tt tt tt GUIDES BIG ELEVEN ON SMALL PAY THE coach of one of the most prominent football teams in the country that plays a schedule that calls for man power and an abundance of drill receives small time pay. He is Gar Davidson, who works for Uncle Sam at West Point, the Army. Officially, Davidson’s army rating is second lieutenant and he has just succeeded to the head coaching duties at the Point. The fact he has been made chief grid mentor at the United States Military Academy doesn’t involve any change in his service status and the pay of a second “looie’’ is $166.50 per month plus ration allowance of “chicken feed’’ totaling 52 cents a day. Estimating the football season at three months Davidson will draw down $499.50 and his ration money of a little more than half a buck a day. Compare this salary with the big money paid coaches of other top flight grid machines and you will be convinced that Gar Davidson is a real soldier at heart. Some 1933 coaching salaries will run as high as SIO,OOO up to $15,000. Davidson is not envious, however. He is only 29 and is the youngest officer ever to be promoted to the post of head football coach at West Point. That is a tribute to the high esteem in which he is held and is an unique distinction. The assignment is in the line of military duty and Davidson will carry on and endeavor to maintain the Army’s fine reputation and standing on the gridiron. tt a a tt tt a ADOLFO OUTLASTS COMPATRIOT IN MAJORS ADOLFO LUQUE, the veteran Cuban righthanded hurler. is entitled to step up to the bar at floppy Joe's in Havana and order himself a few scuttles of suds and point to Miguel Gonzales to foot the bill. Luque and catcher Gonzales have been waging a friendly feud to see who would last the longer in the big leagues and Adolfo won. Gonzales was handed an unconditional release by the St. Louis Cardinals the other day whereas Luque was offered a 1933 contract with the New York Giants, and signed it without an argument. The release of Gonzales terminates a major career that extends through a score of seasons. Miguel and Luque started out together in the States as members of the old Long Branch team of the Atlantic League back about 1912 or 'l3, and it was always the boast of each that he would out-stay the other after they broke into the big leagues. The Giants picked up Luque for a relief flinger last spring after he had been released by Brooklyn. Before going to the Dodgers, Adolfo played a long stretch of seasons with Cincinnati and before that with the Louisville Colonels. Gonzales saw service with several major clubs and in the American Association. There is some consolation for Gonzales, however. He was advised today that he can have a good job somewhere in the St. Louis Cardinal minor league chain if he wants it. Branch Rickcv, business manager, did not state the kind of employment he had in mind for the tall Cuban. Gonzales is 40 years old and Adolfo Luque is 42. tt tt tt tt tt a Three members of the Washington Senators received hikes in salary for the 1933 season, leading one wag to remark evidently beer is just around the corner. tt tt tt tt tt John Posok, one of the several claimants to the heavyweight mat title, “invented” a couple of new holds and named the “crushers” alligator and grasshopper grips. Why overlook the bull frog and boll weevil? tt tt u tt a tt Young Pat Page, versatile athlete, withdrew from Chicago university and will enter Oklahoma university to study oil geology. Well, we will say his daddy had plenty of “oil” when he figured prominently in Hoasler collegiate sports at Butler and Indiana.
City Bowling Tourneys for Men and W omen Under Way
Indianapolis bowlers always have been noted ns last minute entrants in all tournaments, but the record seems to have been smashed for the city tournament that opened today on the Uptown alleys. Officials were unable to work out a complete schedule before the actual start of the meet owing to the fact that 60 per cent of the entrants failed to enroll at the proper time. The added burden has made it Kautskys Await Rosenblum Tilt One of the country’s leading cage teams, the Cleveland RosenblumCeltics, with a lineup of well-known veterans, will provide the opposition for Kautsky A.

Seward staxred for the winners and bagged four field goals, while Shipp, Barnhorst and Eddie O'Connor were Irish leaders. Robinson also pxayed well for the winners. Spartan Rally Wins A brilliant last quarter rally after trailing 30 to 20 at the three-quar-ters post, climaxed by two field goals by Smith in the last minutes, gave Connersviile a 36 to 34 triumph over Tech. The upset checked Tech's victory string at eleven and was the second loss in fourteen tilts for the eastsiders. With Edwards.

Off The Backboard RV VERN BQXELI :
FRANKFORT, Ind.. Jan. 28.—T00 many cooks may spoil the broth, but one or two more Cooks certainly would make sizzling Hot Dogs. Frankfort Hot Dogs dropped a 21 to 13 decision to Logansport in a red-hot rivalry battle here Friday night, but through no fault of the aforementioned Cook, a lanky youngster who can play a lot of basketball. It was just a case of too much Logansport. Ebon without Vance,

A CANADIAN star of the hardwood will lead the Great Eastern Stages of Cleveland into action against South Side Turners at Turner gym Suixday at 3 p. m. He is Buck Lamme, brilliant forward and captain. The Stages formerly played as the Cleveland Pennzoils and won 144 games, including two Cleveland city titles. Among their victims were the Akron Firestones. Turners, with Saddler leading the attack, are in top shape for Sunday’s game. Two prelim games, the first starting at 1 p. m., open Sunday's program.
Otto Reiselt, Philadelphia, and Allen Hall, Chicago, holding the last two places in the standings, open today’s program. Arthur Thurnblad, Chicago, and Frank Scoville, Buffalo, clash in the second afternoon game. Cochran clicked off a spectacular game Friday night to trim Tiff Denton, Kansas City, 50 to 30, in fortyone innings. Augie Kieckhefer, defending titleholder, finished with a sensational rally to beat Thurnblad, 50 to 42, in forty-nine innings.
the towering back guard who was left at home with an infected throat, which will keep him out at least two weeks, the Berries were too tough. tt tt tt A FEW years ago, when coach Ernest Blood brought his great unbeaten Passaic (N. J.) team to Hoosierland, he made the assertion that the fundamentals of basketball were "get the ball, keep the ball, put the ball in the basket.” That’s Logansport. Cliff Wells, veteran little pilot of the Berries, hasn't been bothered much by the 1933 rule changes. His Berries still take their time in getting down the floor, hammering away with ma-chine-like precision for an opening. This type of attack, combined with a stubborn defense which kept most of Frankfort’s shots long and hurried, proved the undoing of the locals Friday. it tt tt A LITTLE youngster who answers to the name of Herron is the spark plug of the Logan attack. He’s no Charley Meade, but can handle the ball in grade A style. Horstman, big center, is Wells’ other ace. The Berries collected on seven out of twenty-five field attempts, while the Frankforts counted on but five out of thirty-five. With that kind of shooting and the ability shown here Friday, you can count Cliff Wells’ boys very much in the title running. tt tt o GETTING back to Cook and the Hot Dogs, you have the word of Emerson (the Slim) Bausman, Frankfort coach, that his proteges were anything but right on Friday night. Since Cook returned to the lineup two weeks ago, after straightening out the little matter of grades, the Frankforts have been hitting a hot pace. But they couldn't click P’riday. Larick, a rangy forward, showed flashes of real ability, but he wasn’t consistent. Milton and Merrill are a couple of sawed-off speed merchants who were chief offenders in the basket-missing marathon Friday. and Kershaw is coming along at back guard. He banged in two long efforts that proved mighty handy. tt tt a LOGAN didn't waste any time getting under way on Friday, taking a 7 to 2 lead in the first quarter. It was 10 to 7at the half —and in case you’ve forgotten, that’s a famous score in the Logan-Frank-fort rivalry. A few years ago. Frankfort, then coached by Everett Case, parked on one end of the court and Logansport on the other. The final score was 10 to 7. They still talk about that one when the Berries and Dogs tangle. It was 14 to 9, Logan, at the three-quarters post. Frankfort then' started a rally to provide the hottest action of the evening. They got the shots, but couldn’t hit. The whistle-tooters apparently bungled one when they ruled out Merrill’s field goal when the score was close. But Hot Dog officials let the matter go without the usual loud and long squawking, and the game wound up with the Logans far ahead again. 21 to 13. Frankfort (13! Logansport (21) Fe. Ft Pf Fg. Ft.

British Pu<* Raps Fidel Seaman Watson Surprises With Easy Triumph Over La Barba. BY JACK CUDDY , Vnited Prf** Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Jan. 28— Seaman Tom Watson, British featherweight champion, Friday night provided the most stunning ring upset in months when, in his American debut, he pounded out a decisive twelve-round victory over Fidel La Barba of California, who was regarded as the uncrowned king of his division. Entering Madison Square Garden's ring with the odds 4 to 1 against him. and nervous because of the importance of his first appearance on these shores, Watson shattered an American idol, won the hearts of American fight fans and earned the right to meet Kid Chocolate, world champion, on Feb. 17. Watson's title was not at stake because they scaled over the 126pound limit, Watson weighing 127 a pounds, and La Barba 126'-. Referee Pete Hartley and Judges Charles F. Mathison and Marty Monroe voted unanimously for Seaman Tom, and the crowd gave him a thunderous ovation when he left the ring. Experts who had watched Watson make a poor showing recently in his gymnasium “trial by jury” against three preliminary boys, were amazed to see him in actual competition prove not only a better boxer than La Barba, but a better twofisted fighter. He won seven of the twelve rounds, his opponent two, and three were even.
