By Eddie Ash Red Players Weigh New Wage Scheme m m m Pay Increases Will Depend on Gate

pLAYERS on the roster of the Cincinnati Reds are scratch- * in g their heads and saying: “Well, I don’t know.” It’s because the tailend, money losing Redlegs have been asked to take a chance with the club officials on the 1934 gate receipts. Every player signing for the coming season will be requested to accept an agreement calling for a sliding increase in pay according to the number of fans the club draws at home above a certain number. Last year the Reds drew less than 250,W0 paid admissions at Redland field and the club prexy was pitched out when the team lost money. The new directors have set 275,000 paid admissions as the minimum goal for its 1934 home attendance and each player will receive a 5 per cent increase in wages in the form of a bonus if that mark is reached. Attendance of 325,000 will bring a 10 per cent increase; 350,000, a 15 per cent bulge; 400,000, a 20 per cent bonus, and 450,000 will mean a jump in pay of 25 per cent. The scheme, of course, is to pacify the players on their new contracts and to counteract the squawks that will be made when the athletes glimpse the salary cuts. a a a a a a MANY prize fight followers, and boxers, too, disagree over the general rules of determining the outcome of a match when there are two Judges and a referee giving decisions, or three judges, with the referee excluded. The custom is to call a verdict a draw when two officials vote it even and the third names a winner. That is the way it was in Miami the other night when Max.e Rosenbloom, light heavyweight champion, battled Joe Knight, with the title at stake. The two judges figured it even and the referee voted for Knight, making it a draw under the rules. This column conductor has heard countless arguments on the subject of the final sum-up of fistic decisions and is inclined to oppose the custom of ruling a fight even when one boxer obtains one vote arid a split on the other two. If the three officials all voted a bout eventhen a draw. Or if one official voted for one scrapper, another voted for the other boxer, and the third official voted it even—a draw again. The writer thinks a boxer who receives one out of three, and a split, has more units to his credit than his opponent. Counting under this fashion, Joe Knight would have received that Miami verdict. Draws are unpopular in any line of sports and the aim always should be to name a winner. That's the reason for the point after touchdown in football, the overtime in basketball and extra innings in baseball. mama a a COME time ago a local boxing fan told The Times that he timed a O professional bout at Tomlinson hall and that his watch caught the rounds at 24 minutes. He requested an investigation. In pro boxing, unless announced otherwise, the customers pay to see three-minute rounds, which is regulation time. The Times was able to learn that the fan who held his own clock on a certain bout had the correct dope. The official timer said he remembered the scrap in question and stated he had been ordered by the promoters or managers to lop off thirty seconds on each stanza. A1 Feeney, state boxing commissioner, said today that in the future it will be necessary for promoters to include an announcement in their advance notices in the event any bout on a card is stated for less than three-minute rounds. Moreover, Mr. Feeney will instruct his inspectors to order the ring announcer to inform the crowd at the outset about the scheduled length of each bout coming up. Cutting rounds to 24 minutes, without advising the fans, comes under the head of chiseling. Commissioner Feeney also stated that he is having a stamp made to place on the articles of agreement "where all may see,” that the law stipulates “three minutes to each round.” Mr. Feeney said The Times reader who sent in the complaint was justified. The complaint involved the Meyer Grace-Jackie Purvis bout, and the state athletic commission, like The Times, learned at a late date that some chicanery had beeen practiced. a a a a a a RUMORS that Jack Dempsey would become manager of Everett Marshall, Colorado’s hope for the heavyweight wrestling championship, were dispelled in Philadelphia yesterday. The reports were started there several days ago by Marshall himself with the announcement that he had split with Billy Sandow, his manager. He claimed that he was unable to come to terms with Sandow and that Dempsey planned to take over his management. It was announced officially yesterday, however, that the breach between Marshall and Sandow has been patched and that Sandow' will continue to direct the wrestler's affairs. Marshall will meet Jim Londos in Philadelphia tonight, with Londos’ title at stake. In a previous match there, the Coloradoan w’ent berserk and fought off police, firemen and officials before he was subdued. He w'as only recently reinstated in Pennsylvania wrestling circles.

® THE jC| ACKBOARD ” CARLOS LANE

RAIN, snow or sunshine, it’s correspondence day today. The contrib file begins to look like the paper work connected with the Versailles treaty. So here we go. Dorothy of Tech started something when she appealed for contribs in Backboard’s column from Southport, Shortridge, et cetera.

nan “PIEAR Backboard—After reading -Ls your copy of “Off the Backboard’’ Feb. 5, and the letter written by our good friend ‘Dorothy of Tech,’ I thought that we were not to be outdone down here at good old Southport. You, of course, have noticed that Dorothy has been saying right along that the big shots in the sectional had better watch the Flying Cards. She indeed is right, and, boy, watch out when we do get there. “I agree with Dorothy about Townsend. If you have noticed or have seen any ball games the Cards have played, you will agree with me that we have a real outfit this year. We also have a five man team instead of a one man team with a ‘prima donna’ to lead the outfit along. Here’s our starting lineup and a little gossip about each: Schaefer and Hohlt, forwards; Anderson, center; Stull and Goins, guards. “Schaefer, one of the best ball players Southport has ever produced, is really hot this year. Os course, you saw him in the sectional last year against Tech (remember that Tech?) Hohlt, our speed merchant, is also a hot boy at sniping the nets. If you want to see speed watch this boy. Stull, is a reliable floor guard who really can hit at any place at any time. Then comes Goins. Ask Shortridge if they know’ this boy (they should, he scored twelve points against the Blue Devils). Anderson, our pivot man, is really a sweet ball player around the pivot position. “Take my word and watch these boys in the sectional (don’t forget us Tech and Shortridge, we’ll be there on the first row.) And please Mr. Hemingway, don’t forget the Cathedral game Friday night. “And that’s another thing. I’ve been talking to our boys down here and they are out to get Cathedral, although they got all they wanted in the football season. They know Cathedral is plenty tough but they are ready to go against the Irish Friday night. Say, Dorothy of Tech, lets hear more about the rest of the squad (not so much about Townsend, its getting to be a habit to read about that boy). What’s

March 31, were announced by A. L. Trester, commissioner. Both 'will begin at 10 a. m, and admission to the fieldhouse and both events has been set at 40 cents. Entries for both meets must be filed by school principals on or before Feb. 20 for swimming and Wednesday, March 21, in the track meet. There will be' eight track events and four field events, with scoring in the 5. 3.2, 1 basis. Medals will j be awarded individual winners. Entrants in the swimming meet are not eligible to compete in the track and field games, and no entrant in either will be allowed to compete in more than three %vents. The swimming meet will consist of seven events, 200-yard relay, 100yard breast stroke, 50-yard free style, 220-yard free style, 100-yard back stroke, 100-yard free style and the 150-yard medley relay. Swimmers in this last event will be required to use three styles 0t swimming—back, breast and free, fifty yards for each. The track meet will have the 60 and 440-yard dashes, 60-yard high and low hurdles, half and mile runs, four-lap relay and j eight-lap medley relay run on the 2-1-1-4 lap basis. Field events will be high and broad jumps, pole vault and shot put. PAUL LEE SCORES K. 0. By Times Special NASHVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 9. Paul Lee.

Look out Cathedral, we’ll be seein’ you.’’ “JOE FROM SOUTHPORT.” nan AND, Southport, Backboard will be seeing you, too. Thanks for the contrib. We’ve wanted to hear more about the Cards. Here’s one from the east side: “Dear Backboard—My apologies for not signing my real name to my last contrib. Now for my basketball dope. And may I say right here without malice, I shout: ‘Orchids to S. H. S.' for their decisive defeat of Rushville, one of the outstanding teams of the state. Tech’s win over Cathedral was no surprise, and that up and fighting Manual team took Washington. who, by the way, redeemed herself by taking the measure of Greenfield the following night. “Anderson's return to the good graces of old I. 11. S. A. A. was celebrated by two victories, but your humble sage says the same w-ili not occur over the weekend. S. H. S. or Tech either could take their measure and will if they should meet in regional play. The same goes for the team that eliminates either of the above teams. (Eh, Southport?) “The following r.re left of my big five: Tech, Logansport, and Rushville. I’d rather have S. H. S. in there than Rushville, but I started with Rushville and she has to stay for the time being at least. “Just a guess for Saturday night: Tech, 37; Connersville, 26, and Muncie, 23; Anderson, 19 (Eh, what?) "MIKE OF TECH.” ana ANDERSON didn’t wait until the week-end, Mike. But doesn’t that New Castle deluge appear slightly sca-rewy to you, too? Now for a Shortridge fan: "Hi Backboard—lt looks like you’re pretty lucky when it comes to picking winners of scheduled games and city tourneys. At the first Tech-Shortridge battle you picked Tech under the influence of ether, and the city tourney winner was picked under the Influence of what I do not know. (I hope it was just brainwork.) Anyhow, don’t think Tech will win the sectionals if the Red-Blue-Devils of Shortridge have anything to say about it. If the Shortridgers play the type of basketball in the sectionals that they played against Rushville. nobody can stop them. Friday we hope to add another victim to our list. Against Manual we may or may not have a bad time. But with due regard to the Manual team, I think it will not be hard to beat them. “Our reserve team is in a bad. bad way. At the Lebanon game Bill Pack was injured, and that weakened the team, but they still were good. But Saturday night Jack Brown injured his ankle. Jack was a member of both the reserve and varsity squads, and his injury weakens the reserves considerably. Neither boy will be likely to play again this season. LITTLE WILLIE OF S. H. 5... ana WANT to know what Backboard was under the influence of on that city tourney pick. Little Willie? A certain brand of basketball labelled “Townsend’s Best.” Its good stuff, too. On with the parade: Dear Carlos—Here’s some expert dope from one who follows them all. The best nineteen teams are in the order named: Tech, Logansport, Jeff of Lafayette, Shortridge, Rushville, Hartford City, Anderson, Martinsville. Franklin, Brazil, Bloomington, Froebel of Gary, Washington (Ind.), Central of Ft. Wayne, New Albany, Frankfort, Richmond, Newcastle, and Southport. I’m also picking Anderson to lose to Lafayette by six points, and win from New' Castle and Muncie by three points. I’m picking Tech to break Connersville’s jinx, and win by ten points, and Purdue to lose to lowa in an overtime game. • JLSTA SAPPO.” nan AND that’s picking them. All except the Newcastle-Anderson tilt, and who'd have chosen that one the way it turned out? And more of Shortridge: “Dear Backboard—How about playing the next Shortridgc-Tech game at Butler fieldhouse? Shortridge hasn’t lost on its home floor, either. So give each team an even break. Shortridge 29, and Rushville 18—what was the Tech-Rushville score? Better watch Shortridge in the sectionals. “Who's afraid of the big. bad Townsend with Jim Birr? “A SHORTRIDGE FAN.” ana FOR one day that's plenty. Except for a note to J. W. Goble and H. Griffan. The Vance who is playing with Logansport this year is a brother of last year’s star of the same name in the Loganberry lineup. The elder brother now is in Northwester?, university.

The largest crowd ever to watch a professional basketball tilt here jammed Butler fieldhouse last night as the Kautsky A. C. quintet took a 32 to 30 decision over the Renaissance Negro five of New York. Eight thousand saw the game. A madcap finish brought the fans to their feet. With the locals two points in front, and with six seconds of play remaining, Parmenter fouled Holt just before Smith, Renaissance center, looped a field bucket that would have knotted th score. Owing to the foul against Holt, the Smith basket was ruled out by the officials. Holt was given one charity toss. -% Twin Feature Show Billed With two main gvents scheduled for his weekly wrestling show in Tomlinson hall tonight, promoter Jimmy McLemore said he expected another capacity house tonight as Emil Firpo meets Young Jack Sherry and Ray (Tuffy) Meyers and Cecil Pedigo tangle again. Firpo, a South American, who claims cousinship with the noted heavyweight fighter of the same name, has been a frequent drawing card on southern mat cards, but is new to the north. His bout with Sherry will be for two out of three tails. Meyers and Pedigo are staging a rubber meeting, each having won a match from the other in previous encounters in the Tomlinson hall ring. Both hail from Kentucky.

He missed deliberately to give himself and his mates a chance to bat in a two-pointer, but the effort failed. The Kautskys were masters of the hardwood during the initial period, leading 17 to 12 at the end of the half. Stretch Murphy gave his mates the tipoff, and the New Yorkers had the ball little of the time. The Kautskys boosted their lead to 26 to 16 in the second half when Holt, Cooper and Yancey cut loose with a field goal spree that sliced the locals’ advantage to 26 to 22.

Purdue to Meet lowa lllinois-lndiana Tilt Will Break Big Ten Third Place Tie. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Feb. 9 Purdue's great basketball team, idle since Jan. 15 except for one nonconference game, will renew its campaign in the Big Ten race against lowa at Lafayette tomorrow night. All other Big Ten teams will be in action at the same time, six of them engaging in conference skirmishes and the other two meeting strong nonconference foes. Next in importance to the Purduelowa game is the lllinois-lndiana battle at Champaign, which breaks a three-way tie for third place between lowa, Illinois and Indiana. In the other two conference games, Wisconsin meets Minnesota at Minneapolis, and Chicago plays Northwestern at Evanston. Outside the conference Ohio State engages Marquette at Milwaukee, and Michigan meets Michigan State at East Lansing. Gophers Small Threat Although Purdue has been idle for almost a month from Conference competition, the Boilermakers moved nearer the title during their inactivity because of defeats for the other contenders. Minnesota, which has only four games left to play, holds second place with five victories and three defeats. The Gophers’ title chances are negligible. If Purdue is to get any competition for the title it must come from one of the three teams deadlocked for third place—lowa, Indiana and Illinois, each with three victories and two defeats. Standings May Change The Boilermakers already have beaten two of these three teams and are favored to trim the other, lowa, tomorrow' night. Several changes are possible in the standing tomorrow night. If Purdue beats lowa, the winner of the Indiana-Illinois game will gain undisputed possession of third place and can climb to second providing Wisconsin upsets Minnesota. Northwestern can get back into the first division by a victory over Chicago regardless of other results. Caplin Angered at Jeby Verdict By United Press PATERSON, N. J., Feb. 9.

Ring Record Unpopular Decision Gives Harvey Fourth Crown. By United Press LONDON, Feb. 9.—Len Harvey established last night what is believed to be a world record by acquiring his fourth boxing title within a year, wresting the British Empire heavyweight championship from Larry Gains, Canadian Negro, at Albert Hall. Previously Harvey had won the heavyweight championship of the British Isles, also the cruiserweight and middleweight titles. His fifteen-round decision over Gains was unpopular, even Harvey showing surprise when he received the verdict. It was a poor fight, but virtually all critics agreed that Gains was superior throughout. Harvey weighed 178 pounds; Gains 215*6.
