By Eddie Ash Golden Gloves Tourney Boon to Boxing am* Toledo Perks Up in Pitching Talent m m m Columbus Prexy Rather Windy Talker
QPORTS celebrities of the town who were on hand enjoying the Times-Legion Golden Gloves finals at Tomlinson hall Thursday night, included Ownie Bush, Harry Geisel, Barney Kelly and others. Geisel was introductory an-| nouncer for the amateur fistic classic. The show went over big, the hall was packed and bouts were run off in splendid order. Brick Owens, American League umpire here on a visit with Geisel, also a member of the A* L. staff, occupied a ringside seat, and stayed from beginning to end. "I am familiar with Golden Gloves tourneys in Chicago,” Owens said, "and never miss one if I can help it. The boys give tne customers genuine action. I have invited Harry Geisel to be my guest in Chicago when the boys crowned Times-Legiop champions here compete in the Tournament of Champions next week.” Some professional boxing goers who showed up for the first time at the Golden Gloves show Thursday were surprised at the class oi entertainment and fine system used in conducting the program. “We won t miss being present at every program next year,” they said. Officers from Ft. Benjamin Harrison were jubilant over the success of their soldier fistic squad in landing four of the titles. The victorious lads from the army post are members of the Third field artillery. "This is going to prove a great boost for baxtng in Indianapolis,” one amazed ringsider said. “It will give an impetus to the development of the blove sport in the city and naturally will make new fistic fans, which will react to the benefit of the professional shows. “It’s a remarkable tribute to The Times for single-paper sponsorship in co-operation with the Legion boys.”
HEN MOUNI) STAFF LOOKS PROMISING THE Toledo Mud Hens are perking up after bring orphans all winter and considerable fan interest is coming to life as the home town buyers of the defunct franchise make gradual progress in putting a team together. Hoosier fans will recall the Hens nosed out the Indians for fourth place last fall. Toledo was a real ball team during the late wedks of last year’s campaign and although Cleveland wrecked the roster when it withdrew its support, fresh contact with the American League Indians was made and the Hens have benefited. The mound staff is especially promising, if Cleveland delivers the tale.nt as expected. Lawson, Twogood, Craghead, Winegarner, Rabb, Pearson, Bachman, Marleau and Tate form a likely looking mound crew. The first six named won 55 games and lost 48 between them in 1932 with Toledo, and Lefty Bachman doubtless will suprise a lot of sharps if he is kept out of the ouHleld. Bachman is somewhat of a hitter and he was over-worked last season and shunted about as pinch hitter, pitcher and fly chaser. Another thing, Pearson won 3 and lost 9 tilts last year and he is figured to be a better hurlcr. The Hens got away to a slow start in 1932; otherwise some of the mound records would show a bulge. Belve Bean, Hen 1932 ace. will be retained by Cleveland. He won 20 games and lost 14 under Bib Falk. Lawson won 12 and lost 11 last year. Twogood copped 10 and lost 6. Craghead bagged 18 and dropped 15, and Rabb won one, with no defeats, seeing action in only 28 innings. Winegarner won 11 and lost 7. ‘WISE GUY MACPHAIL,’ SAYS ONE FAN LARRY MACPHAIL, president of the Columbus Red Birds of the American Association, has got some of the Bird fans on his neck for delaying the appointment of a manager and with spring almost at hand. ‘‘Wise Guy MacPhail" is the way one fan referred to the prexy. It is said MacPhail wanted Bob O'Farrell, but was ‘‘taken out of the play” for Bob by Gabby Street, manager of the Cardinals, who own the Columbus franchise. It is said to be a case where the chain store board must agree before Columbus obtains its pilot. Reports intimate that Branch Rickey, St. Louis chain general manager, and MacPhail settled on O'Farrell and Street complained to Sam Breadon, Cardinal owner, and won the argument. MacPhail popped off recently with house top shouting charging “tampering" by the Cincinnati Reds, and got nowhere. It made good publicity in Columbus, however. If Larry went to Commissioner Judge Landis with his squawk, as he threatened to do. there has been no public report made of it. Last September the Cardinals sent out blanket waivers on a long list of players, including Pitcher Sylvester Johnson, who still is regarded as big league caliber. He was waived out and sent to Columbus. That was in September, long before Ownie Bush was appointed manager of the Reds. Sidney Weil. Cincy prexy, shouldered the blame for overlooking Johnson, explaining he had not noticed Sylvester’s name on the list. Out of that remark, MacPhail of Columbus ran to she crying room with his wail of “tampering.” It isn't even close to what constitutes tampering. Cincy papers quote Pilot Bush's opinion. Not being in the majors at the time when waivers were asked on Johnson. Bush said he would have denied waivers otherwise. MacPhail also took exception to Bush’s statement, and was wrong again. Bush or any other manager would say the same of any players who was rated good enough to remain in the big show. There is no rule that gags a club manager when discussing the merits of a player on another team. It’s just Johnson’s bad luck that the Hoosier was not in charge at Cincinnati when the Cardinals slipped him out and over the dam. a tt tt a a a The president ol the National Ski Association, Leib Deyo. never had on a pair of skis. Well, there are a lot of people betting hard-earned mony on horse races who never even hitched or rode a dobbin. a a .* a a a Pitcher Dizzy Dean finally trumped up a plausible reason for skipping out on his partner in a filling station enterprise. He said he noticed so many people thumb walking along the highways he lost interest. tt tt tt a a a Pennsylvania has seven veterans in its 1933 rowing crew, losing only one man by graduation. Trouble is, a lot of colleges have cut out shells this year on account of undernourished budgets and the Quakers may not have the pleasure of trouncing certain rivals.

Risko Defeats Levinsky Again By Vnilcd Prr NEW YORK, Feb. 25. Johnny Risko, veteran Cleveland heavyweight, won his third consecutive victory over eccentric King Levinsky of Chicago Friday night in their ten-round bout at Madison Square Garden. Although the 31-year-old “rubber man” won by a large margin, the decision was not unanimous. One judge voted for the Chicago fish peddler. The United Press score sheet gave Risko eight rounds and Levinsky two.

Off The Backboard 1 RY VERN Rnvr ii
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” (?j from Tech, a typical example: "Mr. Boxell: (thank you, Johnny). I have just finished reading your column — for the last time! (Now, now, Johnny.) You convince me that you are much crazier than I had given you credit for being. (Ouch.i . . . 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 piade 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 that 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 Trcster'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! tt tt tt CONSIDERABLE headway toward picking the 1933 hardwood champion of Indiana will be nutde 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.
Marion established anew record in the game with Hartford City last Tuesday night. The Giants boomed awav 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 recional with Greencastle and Greencastle is being picked by you know who to win the state title. Tsc. Tsc. PiCC.v 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. a a a 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 Renter, 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 way they can get it is to bump Kokomo, while Logansport, present pacesetter. bows to Frankfort. It’s a gcod bet the Techs will do their part, but Frankfort may find its assignment a little too tough. From Heron, Lcgansport is going to be tough!—(Oh. you punny man!) n a s Robert (the old rascal) Stranahan. Newcastle's pride and joy. has taken a front row seat on the Connersville band wagon
Late Dinner Ruins Otto Von Porat’s Ring Comeback
Bp United Press CHICAGO. Feb. 25.—0tt0 Von Porat is recovering in Columbus hospital today from a brief but emphatic stomach ache that checked his come-back in the heavyweight boxing ranks and gave the Illinois athletic commission a few hours of consternation. Officially. Tuffv Griffiths of Chicago scored a technical knockout over Von Porat in eight rounds at the’Chicago coliseum Friday night. Unrfficially, Griffiths' punches ap-
the crowd around the immediate ringside. Twenty-six scraps were run off in rapid-fire order and eight champions were crowned. Spectacular glove throwing started in the early matches and the fast pace held out until the last title holder had been determined. Ft. Benjamin Harrison captured four of the eight championships. Gold medals were awarded winners in
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. tt a tt 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 was 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. tt tt tt So you can’t take it, eh? Well, we’re still picking Greencastle.
Joe and Lou in Main Mat Clash . _ The big rough boys of he mat game will perform at Tomlinson hall Monday night when the Hercules A. C. stages an all-heavyweight wrestling program headlined by Jumping Joe Savoldi and Lou Plummer, both former Notre Dame grid farriors. Savoldi was the better known football player and is the better known grappier, but Plummer
has had more experience in the profesisonal wrestling sport and is said to be agile and strong enough to give Jumping Joe all he can handle. The main go will be for two best falls cut of three, or to a finish. Savoldi is the pick of many mat
Savoldi
followers to gain the highest honors in the game within a couple of years. In three previous engagements here, Plummer has downed Wee Willie Davis. Nick Velcoff and Alex Kashey. Lou weighs 220 and Savoldi 205. The semi-windup and prelim bouts Monday will be time limit matches, with heavyweights performing. Tommy Marvin, Oklahoma Indian and former boxer, will tackle John Katan in the semi-windup. The prelim will start at 8:30. RECEIVES $340 FOR $2 Bp United Press AGUA CALIENTE. Mexico, Feb. 25.—A lone bettor who risked $2 on Augeas in the sixth race Friday collected SB4O when the horse won. No tickets were sold for place position and the horse paid $28.60 to show.
