By Eddie Ash No Affectation on Fart of Joe Cronin a m m New Major Umpire Is Former Fighter m m m Fesek May Be Thorn to Jim Browning

JOE CRONIN, youngest manager in the big leagues, is going to wear the same size of hat as formerly and trot right along as usual. In short, Joe refuses to acquire an enlarged head and mount a high horse to let the world know he was chosen from the ranks at 26 and appointed pilot of the Washington Senators. The youthful chief took charge of his batterymen the other day down in Biloxi, Miss., to mark his 1933 appearance as boss. Sixteen players reported with the first spring training squad and dispatches say Joe worked as hard as the greenest rookie. In a recent interview, Cronin was modest, fci:t at the same time let the experts know he holds high regard for his ball club and its chances. “Tracies have helped as,” he said, “and it's a greater pennant contender than last year." It will be recalled the Senators finished third in 1932 just a jump (one game) behind the second-place Philadelphia Athletics, but fourteen games back of the champion New York Yankees. It’s a lot of ground to make up and young Cronin respects the Yankee pitching and batting, but his slogan Is: "barring injuries, we are going places.’’ “With the club that's to represent Washington this year,’’ Joe explained, “All I have to do is hustle hard as a player to keep up with a bunch that should go somewhere, and try to vindicate Owner Griffith’s judgment in picking me as manager. “Players make the manager. Ours is an experienced club, with all the men well past the experimental stage, so there isn’t going to be a lot of tinkering. They know they’ll all hold their positions unless they go bad or injuries overtake them So their mental attitude is all set for a battle as a championship threat.” a a a a a a PUNCHING BILL WILL BE DANGEROUS FUN BILL SUMMERS, up from the minors, newly appointed umpire in the American League, is a former boxer. It won't do for the boys to take many liberties with Bill and call him “busher,” without smiling. He was a lightweight glove tosser as a youth, but never played on a baseball team. ' Summers’ career as an umpire began by chance in Woonsocket, R. 1., fifteen years ago when he was prevailed on to call ’em at a schoolboy game after the regular umpire failed to appear. Summers received $3 for the job, and decided it was a more pleasant profession than bdxing. He worked in the old Central Massachusetts Twilight League, then went up to the Eastern League. After ten years in this circuit he was promoted to the International League in 1931. Tommy Connolly, American League umpire-in-chief, scouted hirn there during the past two seasons and decided he was ready for the big show. Summers is short, s out, and fearless. Once at Allentown, Pa., the fans sailed their straw 1 ats down a„ Bill in displeasure at one of his decisions. Methodically, I e stepped on each of the hats with his spiked shoes. HUB n n tt HE’S FLATTENED ‘CHAMP’ FOUR TIMES O PORTS writers in Columbus, 0., are wondering what the New York athletic commission is going to do about Big John Pesek, known in wrestling circles as the “uncrowned champion.” Jim Browning was awarded the New York commission heavyweight title the other night when he flattened old Ed 'Strangler) Lewis, who has seen too many years go by to be able to leap frog around the ring and to grunt loudly enough to satisfy the customers. It has been pointed out that records in Columbus disclose Pesek has defeated Browning four times. The Columbus scriveners do not go beyond four meetings between the'pair of pachyderms on account of the fact mat records are not kept up to date. The Buckeye scribes merely say they know Pesek dumped Browning four times, within their knowledge. The big fellows might have clinched a dozen times. Anyway, Browning may be embarrassed shortly, for Pesek’s manager, A1 Haft, seems determined to put the New York commission in a corner with a challenge supported by clippings showing how John toyed with Jim four times in the Ohio “wheel.” ALL A. A. CAMP* SITES SELECTED WITH the announcement at Toledo Thursday night to the effect the Hen ball club will do its spring training at Morristown, Tenn., all American Association clubs now are ready for the practice routine in March. All spring drills have been curtailed, nearly all teams reducing tune-up time by two weeks. Here is the list of camps: Indianapolis, at French Lick, Ind., and at home; Toledo. Morristown, Tenn.; Columbus, Spartanburg, S. C.; Kansas City, at home; Louisville. Dawson Springs Ky. and at home; Milwaukee. Hot Springs, Ark.; Minneapolis, Montgomery. Ala.; St. Paul, Dawson Springs, Ky. and in Louisville. bob nun Stanley Hack, young Chicago Cubs’ infielder, got a lot of publicity this winter when he bought an airplane and received a pilot's license. Going to be the first ball player to report at training camp byair. The other day the machine nosed over making a landing. Hack escaped unhurt, but the guess is Chollie Grimm. Cubs’ manager, rubbed his chin and “viewed with alarm." 808 B B B Elmer Yoter, former Indianapolis third sacker, has caught on as manager of the Wilkesbarre Barons of the New York-Pennsvlvania League, succeeding the veteran Mike McNally. Little Elmer will be a playing pilot. B B B B B B Ernie Krueger, former Indianapolis catcher, lost out at Albany in the International League when his close friend.

Off The Backboard RV VERN ROXELI

IS my face red? Did Ole’ Backboard surprise 'em? More money changed hands on your correspondent's “picking ’em” Thursday than the total war debts payment of France to Uncle Samuel this year. A majority said it would be Logansport. Many said it would be Tech. A few knew it would be Greencastle—and they were the winnahs! Several of my Tech friends are burned down and disgusted. The rascals think ole Backboard is a double-crosser. Several flaming epistles were tossed on to your correspondent’s desk this morning. Backboard would like to publish some, but, after all, this is a family newspaper. But here are a few remarks by “Johnny Smith” (?) from Tech, a typical example: “Mr. Boxell: I thank you, Johnny). I have just finished reading your column—for the last time! iNow, now. Johnnj.l You convince me that you are much crazier than I had given you credit for being. (Ouch.) . . . Greencastle has a free ticket to the state, but will lose in the final tourney to the first good team it meets. Let’s hope it’s Tech. You crossed every one and picked a second-rater. Their record was made against second-raters. If McAnally is a better center than Edwards, then I'm a fighter. (Did you enter the Golden Gloves tourney. Johnny?) 'But to get back to Tech and Shortridge, you have shown me vhat you choose to ride with Shortridge. Reason: You have Greencastle on the brain and because a Shortridge sub got lucky, you think Shortridge is it. You're not so smart. Boxell. (Here, here. Johnny, you're repeating.) If you were, you’d be the high commissioner of the I. H. S. A. A. instead of a columnist. (Thanks, I decline—did you ever notice Arthur Trester’s gray hair?) Go ahead, ride and fall with Greencastle and Shortridge. We ll triumph with Tim and Tech, (beautiful. Johnny, beautiful).” Take that, you nasty old Backboard ! a it it CONSIDERABLE headway toward picking the 1933 hardwood champion of Indiana will be made today in Mr. Trester’s office. Schedules for the March marathon will be drawn—and if you don’t think the schedules aren’t going to do a lot in determining Mr. Ihsaa’s new ruler, you should rush to the nearest physician. And then there’s that little matter of Anderson—will they promise to be nice boys if Mr. Ihsaa lets them play with the rest of the schools, or will Mr. Ihsaa show Anderson out the back door? That, too. is a very important question It’s rumored Anderson will be on the outside, looking in. non Marion established anew record in the game with Hartford City last Tuesday night. The Giants boom'd awi t at the basket forty times and connected once, late in the second quarter. Crawfordsville hasn’t been seen in a state tournament since 1923. It would be just like the Athenians to decide to turn over anew leaf this year, since they play in the same regional with Greencastle and Greencastle is being picked by you know who to win the state title. Tse. Tsc. Piggv Lambert had four guards in the Purdue lineup that bumped Northwestern last Monday—Cottom, Shaver, Moore and Parmenter. The fifth man was a center, Dutch Fehring, who was playing forward. Piggy also got into a game over at Columbus last week. Sleet, dusky Connersville forward who is one of the state's leading scorers, calls himself nasty names when he misses a shot, they say. Sleet, your correspondent wishes to inform you. is a man of few words. ana MR. TIM CAMPBELL'S Techs are in for a very busy evening Saturday. Kokomo's Wildcats, who thrive on upsets, are coming over to visit the Campbells. Kokomo’s traveling center, who answers to Ellers, is expected to give our Edwards quite a run for his money. Tech wants that North Central Conference title. The only wa> they can get it is to bump Kokomo,

The Thursday show wound up the first Golden Gioves event ever staged in Indianapolis and was a complete success from the standpoint of entertainment and attendance.

of Michigan, and Henry Hook fought to a draw at Ft. Wayne a few months ago. and it was reported as one of the most sensational battles seen in the state in a long time. Jimmie Cooley, who refereed the Ft. Wayne fight, and James I. Veach of the boxing commission assert it was one of the best fights they ever saw. The Willard Brown-Jackie Purvis match has been speculated on for some time by local promoters and fight followers. These two, until a year ago, were stablemates, but since the split in the stable an intense rivalry has developed. Ringside seats went on sale today at the Clay pool hotel drug store at popular prices.

while Logansport, present pacesetter, bows to Frankfort. It’s a good bet the Techs will do their part, but Frankfort may find its assignment a little too tough. From Heron, Logansport is going to be tough!—(Oh, you punny man!) . a a a Robert (the old rascal) Stranahan, Newcastle's pride and joy, has taken a front row seat on the Connersville band wagon, where his companions are Ken Murphy of the Richmond Palladium and Red Havens of Anderson. Robert Gordon, Columbus scribbler, is pinning his hopes on Logansport. He will be joined in a few days by a well-known Kokomo columnist and probably a few days later by a Chic Frankfort young man. It looks like the Connersville, Logansport and Tech ballyhoo will be taken care of by a battery of experts. a a a FROEBEL is convinced there is no justice. The next chap who mentions “flip a coin” to a Froebel athletic official is making another case for the coroner. The Gary school, it seems, is always a champion but never a champion. Six Froebel football and basketball teams have tied for western division honors on the Northern Indiana High School Conference championships, but the Blue Devils have yet to compete in the title playoffs with eastern division champions. The reason—Froebel coaches can’t call the flip of a coin. Maybe they should go off the silver standard. The latest tough break for the Froebelites w r as the loss of a chance to represent the western division against Elkhart for 1933 N. I. H. S. C. crown. They lost the flip to Valparaiso. a a a So you can't take it, eh? Well, we’re still picking Greencastle. cubs start By United Press VAALON, CATALINA ISLAND, Cal., Feb. 24.—Although catcher Gabby Hartnett was ordered by Charlie Grimm, Chicago Cubs manager, to chase wild goats over Catalina's peaks in an effort to cut down his waist line, Grimm had mercy on Buck Newsom and let him take it easy today. Newsom is suffering from corns. Grimm himself has lumbago, but the rest of his squad, twelve pitchers and four catchers, is in excellent shape. Bob Herman. Bill Herman, Riggs Stephenson and Captain Woody English jumped the gun and participated in the first drill Thursday, five days ahead of schedule. KRICK SEEKS REVENGE Howard Krick, local Y. M. C.
