By Eddie Ash Greyhounds Gallop to Fine Net Record 0 0 0 Indiana Central Entitled to Plaudits

TPHE Greyhounds of Indiana Central college have run over! the hardwood for the last time this season and supporters of Coach Harry Good’s pastimers well may point with pride to the record of their interesting team. Only one setback was met by the basketeers of Edgewood through a long and hard schedule, and when the laurels of the net campaign of ’33-’3l are passed around the sharpshooters of the local University Heights school are entitled to a large slice of the melon. They won sixteen games in seventeen starts. It was the best season in the history of the galloping Greyhounds in any line of athletics and the team closed the schedule topping all Hosier state quintets from the standpoint of percentage of won and lost. It was the last collegiate court appearance of Big Dave De Jernett, mighty Negro center, and it is said the Renaissaince team of New York, world’s professional champions, has made advances to Big Dave to join their wonder machine. Indiana Central split even with Ball State of Muncie, the lone defeat. Butler university was downed and other close rivals trounced were Fanklin, Central Norman and State. bob a a a KELSE M'CLURE still is battling the fistic profession with his Indianapolis stable of glove throwers and is thinking of taking the boys on a lengthy trip to Texas late this month. He has managed to keep most of his lads busy in the north, but gate receipts have been low and profits meager. Jackie Purvis, McClure's veteran middleweight, has retired from the ring. At least, that is Jackie's decision at this time. Not enough income for the amount of grief, he says. Kelse has the following bouts scheduled in the near future: Paul Lee. Indianapolis, vs. Marshall Edwards, at Nashville, March 7; Fred Eiler. Indianapolis, vs. Young Stuhley, at Chicago, March 5; Henry Hook, Indianapolis, vs. Glenn Nute. at Hot Springs. March 9; Paul Lee, vs. Bobby O'Dowd, at Hot Springs, March 12 All are ten-round matches. Marshall Edwards is Kentucky bantam champ and Glenn Nute is a phenom out of Tulsa boasting of a long string of knockouts. Bobby O’Dowd hails from Davenport and Young Stuhley is a Chicagoan. On the proposed invasion of the Lone Star state. McClure plans to establish headquarters at Dallas. He has not last hope of working up a bout here between Paul Lee and Scotty Scotten and says he will permit Scotty to come in at 126 pounds. Lee usually fights at light feather figures and Scotty is a light junior lightweight. nan bob FRANCIS a. SCHMIDT, whose appointment as head football coach at Ohio State university has been announced officially, is listed as one of the outstanding coaches of modern southwestern football history. He is known as the dean of hard-workers and managed in his five years as coach at Texas Christian university to win two Southwestern Conference championships and finish near the top the other three years. Schmidt's 1933 team and 1932 squad were undefeated. Schmidt employed one of the most versatile styles of play in the southwest. His aerial attacks were considered among the best while his innovations in ground play held constant surprises for opponents. T. C. U. is located at Ft. Worth, Tex. can a a v JUDGE JOHN F. GECKLER of the juvenile court was a clever boxer in these parts in his youth and worked out frequently in the gymnasium of his brother, George (Gaylor) Geckler. who conducted a boxing school. The judge thus tells of his only professional appearance in the ring: T was matched to meet some out-of-town fighter, and went early to the old auditorium on Viiginia avenue where the fight was to be held. An hour before the show was to start I was introduced to the chap, and we became quite friendly. He seemed to be a fine fellow, and I readily accepted his invitation to step down to the corner drug store to hav£ a drink. He insisted I take an ice cream soda, which I did, and then, at his urging. I drank a second one . He took a cigar each time, but I thought nothing of this. Well, the show started, and we were in the first bout.. After sparring for a minute this fellow socked me in the midaection, right on those two ice cream sodas—and the fight was over. It was my first and last professional appearance in the prize ring.” a a a bob MANY of the newer generation of roller polo fans have asked what constitutes a foul in the game. Ollie May, secretary of the Midwestern League, enumerates the most common offenses calling for a penalty as follows: Holding, which means catching hold of an opponent with tire hands and keeping him out of play; tripping, throwing the stick at the ball, hitting the ball while the player is on the floor, a knee or hand touching the floor, use of profane language that may be heard by the spectators, stopping the ball with the hand, refusal to obey orders of the referee. May also calls attention to the rule which allows but one defensive player—the goalie—in the space marked off in front of the cage. If the goalie leaves this space, a teammate may take his place while he is out of position. Interference with the ball after it has entered the cage—that is, attempting to hook it out with a stick—also constitutes a. foul. Foulsc are called on the team as a whole, and after three fouls, a team forfeits one point from its score In the event no points have yet been scored the team “owes ’ a point, and the first goal it subsequently scores is cancelled. 800 808 THE winter baseball capital on the west coast of Florida is Sarasota, where the Indianapolis Indians used to train.

Your skyline is all right, but not all your American women. Particularly your American women who sit at the ringside and squeal in high falsetto notes. There was one such at the ringside Thursday night when the Signor defended his championship acamst Mr. Tommy Loughran. of Philadelphia, and because she was there, the Signor believes he was deprived of a knockout victory.

Ruppenthal, Pedigo Draw in Round Robin Tourney

The middleweight habitues of the Tomlinson hall wrestling stables found anew face in the stall last night, a visage that threatened to crumble the supremacy of Ray (Tuffy) Meyers and Cecil (Blacksmith) Pedigo in Indianapolis mat circles. It belonged to Duke Ruppenthal, of Milwaukee, a contender for the middle division belt, who won his way to the final bout on a round robin program, and there was given a draw with Pedigo in a fifty-min-ute event. The Duke, one of the cleverest grapplers to appear on Jimmie McLemore's Friday night shows in Tomlinson hall, flipped the Black'inith all over the ring for thirtyseven minutes before pinning him with a flying tackle in the main go. But. twelve minutes after they returned for the second tumble, he let Pedigo work him into a giant swing for a fall. Only a minute and thirteen seconds remained for the third period, which expired without a fall. Ringside fans watched the grapplers in the round robin tourney by drawing names from a hat. In the first lound. Pedigo put a leg split on Harry Burris to win in six minutes: Ruppenthal took a referee's decision over Meyers in twenty minutes: Young Jack Sherry won from A1 McKee on a foul, and Jim Mellon downed Tommy Tassos with a body lock in eight minutes. In the semi finals Pedigo used the

It snapped at the same precise instant that the Signor laid one of his great-sized fists more or less solidly against the chalk-white jowls of his undersized opponent in that instant there must have flashed through the lady's mind a composite picture of all the carnage and horror mankind ever has witnessed. At any rate, in the middle of this furious onslaught, when it seemed that with the next punch the game Philadelphian must surrender, the young lady cut loose with an all-time all-America shriek. It was so terrify that everybody in

Wesley Ferrell. Willis Hudlin and Clint Brown, holdout tw'irlers, will join the Tribesmen in New Orleans later, if they sign. Others of the aggregation will join the hurling and staffs one week later. Trotsky to Play First Johnson, in an interview, said he would start off Hal Trotsky at first base this year, with Bose Berger on the second sack. "I know either or both may not be ready for the big leagues, but I am going to find out,” he said. Trotsky joined the tribe late last season from the Toledo Mud Hens, while Berger is a New Orleans club acquisition and one-time University of Maryland flash. The Indians’ chief said Trotsky had shown him enough in the few games he played last fall to convince him that he is going to be a great hitter. If he doesn’t find himself this season it won't be because he didn’t get a chance, Johnson indicated. Coy about making pre-season predictions on finish standings, Johnson indicated merely that he w : as hopeful of winding up the club in at least the first division. "It will depend largely on how our infield shapes up and now no one can tell what kind of an infield we’ll have,” he said. Likes Pitching Staff Johnson pointed out that he believed the club’s return to League park would bring back the boys’ batting punch. The Indians played last season in Cleveland’s mammoth new stadium. The Big Train believes that his pitching staff will be one of the best in the league. The need for ! good southpaw's has been answered in the form of Lefty Lee and Lloyd Brown. Meanwhile. Ear!

the press coop turned his head from the drama in the ring to see what had happened. The Signor turned his, too. He turned it while he had his right hand poised ready for another driving punch.

ALMOST impregnably beydnd the danger of disastrous upsets, Indianapolis—or, rather the Indianapolis sectional should offer one of the foremost contenders for the 1934 state high school basketball crown. Os the sixteen city and Marion county quintets which started the annual sectional grind Thursday night, only four remain. Os these three are teams that were heavy pre-tourney favorites, and the fourth is almost certain to be eliminated in semi-final play in Tech gym this afternoon.

"VI THAT probably will be the fea- * ture tilt of the tournament will jam the big Tech arena, at 2 this afternoon. The meeting of Tech and Shortridge in a battle for finalist honors will settle the old hue and cry that one good team can’t win three in a season from another good team, it will settle, also, Tech hopes, the surprise the Blue Devils imposed on the Green and White in the finals of last year's sectional, when a state-title bound east side five succumbed to the northsiders, 25 to 20. Don’t think that Tech has forgotten that affair a year ago. It has rankled in the minds of the east side warriors all season. And it won't give rise to overconfidence this afternoon. On the other 'hand, Shortridge is about due, Backboard feels. The Blue Devils haven’t really clicked for several games, and this may, be the day when they can’t miss, when they play with the smoothness of a high speed machine—and Kenneth Peterman's boys are capable of that kind of basketball. a a tt •yjOWEVER, Backboard does not -Tl expect the team he selected as the 1934 state champs to have as much difficulty with Shortridge this afternoon as with Southport tonight, providing the Cards put up the offensive drive they displayed in the first half against Manual last night. From the pressure the Cards showed they can apply when they're on, it's apparent that they’ve played some in-and-out ball through the regular campaign. Otherwise they would not have lost a game. It would have taken an exceptional defense to have stopped the county netters last night—or a remarkable offense to have outscored them. In a little more than a minute. Goins and Schaefer rallied after Wagener’s opening field bucket, and sped the Cardinals to a 6-to-2 lead with three lightning quick drives down the floor. And all through the first half the Cards carried the ball through the Manual defense, piling up 18 points while they held the Redskins to Wagener's initial field basket and Nackenhorst's free toss after Hohlt’s foul.

Tommy! Hang on. Tommy!” Obviously she didn't want to see Mr. Loughran knocked out. She must have gone away happy. For Mr. Loughran was not even knocked down. Camera contends women's place is in the night clubs, not the fight arenas. There may be something in that. Mr. Tom Meighan. of the movies, ogled the proceedings with a detached air and a fashionable sun tan. He appeared more interested in discussing his golf game.

tt tt n has a good-sized, veteran quintet. Backboard wondered where one might find its weakness, and, naturally looked at Hohlt, the smallest and youngest member of the quintet. But if that little forward constitutes the weak link in the Cardinal chain, Backboard will wager that many a coach would like to build up a team of feeble links. Tech may know the answer to the Southport puzzle. Backboard confesses he doesn’t. Unfortunately, New Augusta, the fourth semi-finalist in the local sectional. doesn’t figure to be much more than just a team that will be in the game trying hopelessly against a superior opponent. It didn't make much difference, as far as the outcome of the tourney is concerned, whether Beech Grovo or New Augusta won last night, although the Red Devils’ victory swatted Backboard’s batting average on sectional picks to .875. Southport should have an easy time of it with the Red Devils in the second semi-final tilt this afternoon, and be in tip-top shape for the final game tonight. Don't worry you eastsiders. Backboard talked with the Green and White last night. They're determined to win, that bunch—and they're not cocky about Shortridge I or Southport. tt tt a NO annual state tourney competition is complete without its ! David and Goliath story. The fun of it is to try and pick where little David will pop up and roost a rock on a big fellow’s nose. This year Jeff of Lafayette took the spill. The Battle Ground quin- j tet's upset of the Broncs last night j removed a serious threat in the state ! meet. Logansport and Jeffersonville piled up the biggest scores in first round sectional games, the Berries beating Metea 72 to 11, and the southerners walloping Laconia 70 to 14. . . . Alexandria’s touted five went to the showers after a meeting with Lapel, a prominent dark horse. The score was 22 to 18. . . . After winning twenty-three games in regular season play, Yorktown was forced into an overtime to win from Cowan 29 to 20, at Muncie yesterday. Looks like the old familiar case of stage fright on the part of a small town team, much like the awe that gripped Ben Davis in the first half against Shortridge Thursday night. . . . The Gary sectional looks like a plate of spaghetti. Froebel is out, Roosevelt of East Chicago downed Washington of East Chicago. the NIHSC champ, and then licked Horace Mann of Gary, another tourney favorite; Hammond Tech disposed of Emerson of Gary still another favorite, and the outlook for Hammond high is better and better. . . . Logansport has one less worry in the regional since Burlineton pushed Delphi out of the race. 17 to 15. . . . Michigantown. dark horse last year, lost to Frankfort. Vincennes, with its 60 to 6 win over Sandborn, and Manilla with a 55 to 18 victory over Glenwood. also rank among high scoring teams. OLYMPICS VICTORS WINDSOR, Ontario, March 3.

Mausner Women’s Team Puts Over Sweep on Block Rivals

BY PAUL STRIEBECK (Pinch Hitting for Lefty Lee) Bowlers speak of having an off night, but the situation between the Bowes Seal Fast team and the Mausner Beer squad of the Block Optical Ladies League is another thing. For the first time in three years Bowes Seal Fast failed to win one game. One of the reasons is that Race Johns scored a 390. Eva Dawson for Bowes led the scoring for the evening with 553, but the old support was not there. For Mausner Beer, Lucy Court paved the way with 517, with Helen Kritsch second, with 514. Coca; Cola swamped the Fox’s Jail House for the count of three, while Beard’s! Brake Service, Marott Shoe Store. Jack C. Carr and McGad Insurance shaded the Kingsbury Beer. Julian Goldman Store, S. & S. Service Station and Real Silk. Individual play found many other good scores, with Helen Meyers, 549; MacKinnon, 548; Alexander, 538; Macks and Machino, each 507; Shea, 506 Burnett, 504 Gibson and Theabold, each 502; Orphy, 501, and Banks and each 500.

Mahoney was the leader of the City League at the Hotel Antlers alleys with 246, 165 and 268 for 679 to take all the scoring honors. Cobler, with 631. assisted Mahoney to give the Marott Shoes the odd game over Indiana Wheel and Rim. Elks Boosters was the only team able to secure a three-to-nothing decision. This was from the Hoosier Coffee team. Ray Chrisney was best for the set with 666. w. oh Fitzel supporting with 625 for the winners. The scoring of the Jones-Maley team was lower than their usual stride, but they were able to grab a pair from Hotel Antlers. E. Striebeck had 609 for the victors and R. Fox with 620 was high for the losers. Barbasols had no opponents, but Don Johnson had 661. The Washington League of the Illinois alleys was backsliding in last night's session and not an outstanding total was produced. Kaser Tire had Meyer with 604 to p- oduce the only three-game triumph in this league. This was from Fall City Beer. John Blue was the “best man” of this show with 655 for Coca-Cola. The Cokes batted out a two-game win over Mausner Beer. Johnny Beam led the Hoosier Optical team with 638. but his team was good for only one game from Schlitz Beer, while Berghoff Beer and Newman Candy were counting for a pair from Pharis Tire and Schmitt Insurance. Other high totals were: Ahearn, 611, and Taylor, 602. Only two contest were completed in the Fountain Square League at the Fountain Square alleys with two to one verdicts registered in favor of Goldsmith Sales and Dr. Pepper, winners from Sauter’s Tavern and Beard's Brake Service. Silver Edge Beer and Seven Up had no opponents. Hill was the singles leader with 646. Arnold had 612, MacKinnon, 607, and Stevenson, 600. Two to one featured the Prest-O-Lite League at the Central alleys with two games for Generators. Pyrofax and Flood Lights and one for Cylinders, Acetylene and Torches. Myers was high with 524. In the Casualty and Surety League of the Central alleys Deupree led individual scoring with 591 but his team, the Underwriters Adjusting failed to win a game of their set. Results of the other contest were Aetna, Western Adjusting and National Bureau making a double killing from New Amsterdam. Hoosier Casualty and Stone. Stafford & Stone.

Crimson Is Purdue Foe Big Ten Cage Champs to Close Season at Illinois. By Times Special LAFAYETTE. Ind.. March 3 One of the greatest quintets in Purdue basketball history will close its home season here tonight against Indiana university's hardwood squad. Three seniors on the squad will make their final bow before the Purdue student body against the Hoosiers. They are Captain William (Dutch' Fehring. Ray Eddy and Emmett Lowery. A near capacity crowd is expected for the game, despite Purdue's wide-margin victory over the Crimson cagers several weeks ago in Bloomington. Coach Everett Dean will bring nineteen Indiana men on his squad, and probably will start Weir and Kehrt at forwards, Huffman at center, and Walker and Scott in the guard positions. Ward Lambert, Purdue mentor, is expected to put Eddy and Norman Cottom into the lineup as forwards, with Fehring at center, and Lowery and Shaver at guards. Cottom could regain the lead in Big Ten scoring records with a good showing tonight. The Big Ton cage title is in the bag for the Boilermakers, although two tilts remain on their schedule, tonight's game and a battle Monday night with Illinois at Champaign. Indiana will meet Michigan in Ann Arbor Monday night, winding up the 1933-34 campaign for the Crimson. GOODWIN IS WINNER By Times special PALM BEACH. Fla., March 3 Tommy Goodwin, Monroe (N.
