PURDUE CAGERS BOW TO HAWKEYES

Notre Dame Trounces Xavier; Indiana Loses Barko’s Field Goal Gives lowa Two-Point Margin as Boilermakers Drop First Conference Game Saturday. BY DICK MILLER The pride of Indiana basketball this season. Purdue university five, folded up Saturday night and their undefeated record in the Big Ten conference championship race was smeared by lowa. 38 to 36. The tilt was played on the Boilermaker home floor before a capacity house of 5.000, with hundreds more unable to get inside. Notre Dame, another of Hoosierdom's hardwood favorites took St. Xavier into camp at Cincinnati Saturday night 25 to 15, but Indiana university failed to hold the Illinois netters, and the Suckers edged out

a 28 to 25 win at Champaign. Indiana Central chalked up Its seventeenth consecutive win at the expense of the rival Central Normal five in a home-coming tilt at University Heights, 35 to 24. Butler distanced Oklahoma Aggies, 38 to 26, and Evansville nosed out Hanover, 26 to 23. Wabash again took the number of the Earlham Quakers, this time 27 to 23. and Valparaiso tumbled Manchester and St. Josephs college downed Huntington, 31 to 21. Purdue Is Beaten The lowa-Purdue tilt was one of the most thrilling hardwood games ever played on Hoosier soil. Emmett Lowery was in great form, and with four early game field goals, pushed the Boilermakers out to a 13 to 4 lead. lowa spurted to make it 19-all just before the half closed, and as the gun cracked Bastain tossed two free throws to give the Hawkeyes a 21-19 intermission lead. Midway in the second half lowa held a 32-27 lead, but Dutch Fehring and Ray Eddy tied it up at 32all. Black!i sent the Hawkeyes out in front with two onehanders, and, with the count 36-32, coach Ward Lambert pulled a perfect substitution with George Fisher lor Fehring. Fisher looped in two long ones to knot the count again. Purdue let down on defense and Barko dribbled in for two points that Purdue not match before the gun crackl'd. Iloosiers Are Downed After holding an 11 to 11 tie at half time Indana saw Roy Guttschow of Illinois boost his game scoring to thirteen points in the second half to defeat them by a threepomt margin. Weir. Huffman and Scut each counted three times from the field for the Hoosiers. St. Xavier played brilliantly on defense in the first half against Notre Dame and held the Irish scoreless for fifteen minutes, but the South Benders rallied and were behind only 10-6 at half time. Marty Peters entered the fray in the second half and soon had the score deadlocked. He later pushed the Irish out in front, scoring ten points during the half. Central Normal again saw Indiana Central come from behind in the last half to defeat them. At Danville earlier in the season Indiana Central was in front until the overtime period. Saturday night before a capacity house of Indiana Central homecomers Central Normal led 13 to 11 at half time and the count was 20-all midway in the second half. Big Dave De Jernet and Commingore led a late game drive that pushed the Greyhounds out in front to win their seventeenth straight victory. Butler Wins Easily Wabash displayed an evenly distributed attack to lead Earlham all the way. The Quakers crept up to within two points of a tie several times, but the Scarlet always had the next field goal ready to pull .them out in front four points. Able to stop Wade, Oklahoma’s star scorer. Butler never was headed in its game with the Aggies at the fieldhouse and chalked up the sixth Missouri Valley League win. Butler was in front 18 to 10 at half time and with Baird looping in five field baskets and two free throws the local five was never in danger. Evansville distributed its scoring among the entire team, first one and then the other counting and Hanover was unable to ever get closer than within three points of the Purple Aces. Bauer with five field goals and Rucinskl with three were too much for Manchester and the Valparaiso five pulled away in the second hal£ after being deadlocked 10 to 10 at half time.

Hoosier Hardwood Teams Enter on Hard Programs

Major tests confront Indiana’s collegiate hardwood performers as they embark tonight upon a week of competition that will, in most part, take them to opponents’ playing floors. Hoosierdom’s big three in particular encounter crucial tests and Purdue might be bounced out of the lead in the Big Ten race or tied before the week is over, playing Michigan tonight at Ann Arbor and lowa next Saturday night. The Hawkeyes handed Purdue its first defeat of the season last Saturday night at Lafayette and coach Piggy Lambert and his Boilermakers will be out for revenge at lowa City. Purdue is the favorite tonight at Ann Arbor, as Michigan is holding ninth place in the Big Ten race. Indiana will have until next Saturday night, when they travel to Chicago to battle the Maroons, to recover from their setback at Illinois Saturday night. Notre Dame after a win over St. Xavier at Cincinnati traveled on to Philadelphia, where they battle Temple tonight. The big test for the Irish this week will come on Saturday when Pitt invades the Irish lair. It was after a defeat by Pitt last year that Notre Dame began a winning streak that reached twenty-two straight wins and anew Notre Dame record until the Irish invaded Pittsburgh several weeks ago and were defeated. The Irish still are riding on toward a record for home court wins, and they will be out to take the Panthers, who, in the series between the two. hold seven victories to five for the Irish. Butler should again take the Oklahoma Aggies at the fieldhouse tonight. having dropped the Missouri Valley five Saturday night in a game that saw the Bulldogs aggressors all the way. Butler is in the Valley league lead and two wins from the Aggies will help the cause. The second tilt for Tony Hinkle’s Bulldogs comes Thursday when they tackle Central Normal of Damille on the north side court. Butler is likewise favorite in this tilt. Indiana Central with fourteen straight wins this season and seventeen straight including the last three games of last season will be after another scalp at Muncie Tuesday night where they battle Branch McCracken’s Ball State Cardinals. It will be the only game for the Greyhounds this week. De Pauw takes to the road twice this week, to battle Franklin at Franklin Tuesday night and Ball States at Muncie Saturday night. The Tigers are confident of capturing both these tilts, but either or both are upset possibilities. Wabash will play a pair of tilts on the home hardwood entertaining the Evansville five that spoiled the Little Giant early season winning streak, on Wednesday, and Franklin on Saturday. The latter two teams played a thriller at Franklin earlier

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

New Rules Open Game Changes in Grid Laws Will Aid Offense, Say Coaches. By Cnitrd Press ATLANTA. Feb. 12.—Three rule changes, announced by the National Collegiate Athletic Association football rules committee, were expected today to restore a better balance to the game this fall by bolstering the offense. Fans will see more spectacular play featured by more touchdowns and last-minute uprisings. The changes, evolved from the committee’s three-day session here, were: The five-yard penalty for successive incomplete forwaid passes was eliminated. The first incomplete forward pass over the goal except on fourth down—will be treated the same as if incompleted in the field of play, instead of as a touchback. The definition of a punt is changed to permit kicking the ball from the hand or hands of a teammate. Secretary W. S. Langford’s announcement described the three changes as “of a minor character, all of which favor the offense.” Most football men agree that the punt definition change is trivial, but many of them believe the other two changes are important. Despite the use of the supposedly air-tight "zone play” on defense by most major teams against aerial attacks, the elimination of the fiveyard penalty for incompleted passes is expected to loosen up the aerial game to such an extent that more touchdowns will result. It should operate to the distinct advantage of teams having speedy backs and ends and a couple of good passers. Defensive players may be maneuvered out of their “zones” when the sky is filled with footballs.

Irish Trackmen Down Marquette By Times Special NOTRE DAME, Ind., Feb. 12. Don Elser, Notre Dame sophomore shotputter, set anew local fieldhouse record when he heaved the iron ball forty-six feet and two inches Saturday night to help the Irish track team defeat Marquette, 57 to 38. Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette’s great sprinter, failed by one-tenth of a second to equal his world’s record of 6.1 in the sixty-yard dash, negotiating the distance in 6.2. The Irish won first in eight of eleven events, two of them by Mike Layden, young brother of Notre Dame’s new athletic, director, who captured the sixty-yard high and low hurdle races.

faster than the time he made to win the mid-states event a month ago. Fred Robinson, Shortridge high school boy, annexed the back stroke race by several feet, swimming the 100 yards in 1:08. The collegiate champions were not sure of winning the meet until the next to the last event on the program was completed. Tom Robinson, veteran Northwestern coach, said it was one of the most interesting meets he ever had witnessed and extended an invitation to Bud Swain, H. A. C. coach, to bring his squad to Evanston next season. Every H. A. C. pool record, except one, was broken Sunday. Northwestern, national intercollegiate champions, scored a grand slam on its invasion of the Hoosier state, defeating Indiana university tankmen, De Pauw and the H. A. C.

$100,000,000 IN TAXES MAY BE PUTONJOOKS State Board Will Request Legislative Action, Chairman Says. Legislative action which would make it possible to put $100,000,000 or more exempted taxables back on the duplicate will be asked at the next session of the legislature. Chairman Phil Zoercher of the state tax board, declared today. Request for such change will come from the tax commission, which is empowered by statute to make legislative recommendations, he said. In the interim, an attempt is being made by Commissioner Albert P. Walsman of the board to procure an opinion from the attorneygeneral which would permit them to restore some $40,000,000 in exemptions in Indianapolis alone. Way for the opinion was paved through a supreme court decision in a Vanderburg county case handed down by the high court last week, Mr. Walsman explained.

Holding Companies Scored Another case, dealing with exemption through the holding company method, is now on trial in Hancock circuit court, having been taken there on change of venue from here. It was brought by Albert Uhl, member of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board, against Charles Grossart, Marion county auditor, and the Grand Lodge Hall Association of the I. O. O. F. Through organization of this holding company, the Odd Fellow have been able to tax exempt the entire Odd Fellow building at the northeast corner of Washington and Pennsylvania streets. Previously, only three-fourteenths of the building (that part used directly in the business of the lodge) was exempt. The building houses numerous commercial and professional offices and the ground floor is occupied by a prominent drug store. Law Exempts No Property Mr. Walsman pointed out today that the Indiana Constitution does not exempt any property, but merely empowers the legislature to make exemptions where property is used for “municipal, educational, literary, scientific, religious or charitable purposes.” After starting with five classes of exemptions, the tax laws now provide) for thirty-nine, Mr. Zoercher pointed out. “Only the legislature, u r hich created this problem, can reach a permanent solution through repealing sections of the law such as that permitting creation of the holding companies,” the chairman asserted.

EX-ARMY GRID STAR ATTACK GASE OPENS Murrel Goes to Trial on Girl’s Charge. By United Press FT. SAM HOUSTON, Tex., Feb. 12.—An improvised federal courtroom became the hub of this historic army post today as Lieutenant John H. Murrel, Ninth infantry officer and former West Point football star, went on trial on a charge of assaulting an Alabama divorcee. A promise of sensational testimony lured dozens of army officers’ wives to the trial. Details of the alleged assault, too sordid for publication, were expected to be bared by Miss Blanche Ralls, the accuser. Because the government reservation was named as the scene of the alleged offense, Lieutenant Murrel would be liable to a death sentence if convicted. He pleaded not guilty at a preliminary hearing. The officer described Miss Ralls’ charges as “a frameup,” and his friends, convinced of his innocence, were confident he would be acquitted.
