By Eddie Ash Health Comes to Assistance of Jess Willard a a a Former King Begins ‘Climb Back’ at 51

?

begins all over again for Jess Willard at 51. The former heavyweight champion of the boxing world was in Indianapolis the other night recalling days spent here when he was the king of the maulers and living a life of ease. Now he is back jumping from town to town, often on the “kerosene circuit, ’ picking up a few dollars here and a few there, doing his best to “beat the depression.” Willard didn’t squander his ring profits. In fact, he never was known as a “spender.” He brought up a large family, invested his earnings and then saw his investments wiped out when the depression struck. “Beating the depression at 51,” he said. “It’s tough. But 1 have my health. It's been a greater asset to me in this pinch than anything in the world. 1 used to travel with a circus and went everywhere. We drew big crowds. 1 was teamed with Frank Gotch, former wrestling champion of the world. Gotch is gone. He was a great fellow.” a a a a a a MRS. JESS WILLARD was here with the former White Hope. They travel by auto looking for jobs that Jess can handle as a referee of boxing or wrestling. He handled a mat match at Tomlinson Hall here Monday night. He explained: “I barnstorm the little towns and big cities and I .see thousands of persons in far worse distress than Jess Willard, once king of the ring. I don't feel 51. Far from it. Poor, old Jack Dillon, your former Hoosier Bearcat. He once challenged me for a championship fight and I thought he was too small to make a bout look good. Jack was a light heavy and rather short. And I was 6 feet 6 inches and weighed around 250 in fighting trim. I was sorry to hear the other day that Dillon lost his health. He was a marvelous fighting machine for his size.” a a a a a a WILLARD was willing to discuss boxing and remarked that it was in a pretty bad way all over the country. He said: ' Not enough sports followers ha%*e what you call ‘amusement money.' So many have not climbed out of the depression mire yet. The glove game will be back, though. In time. However, I think if it is ever restored to the popularity it once enjoyed I believe it will be through the heavyweights. The cash customers went to see some hard thumping in the ring when big fellows trade punches that carry dynamite. “Not much of a crowd here tonight. Oh, well. The weather turned cold a couple of hours ago. and anyway, a lot of good sports fans haven't got even car fare to come down town. I know how it is. Before I learned to referee several months ago it was mighty difficult to get along. I feel better now, although it's no fun going from town to town at my age and doing so much night exercise chasing the young fellows around the ring.” a a a a a a SOON the former champion of the world packed his hit-and-run satchel and prepared for another drive. Big hotel suites in the old days. Adnvrers and crowds. Interviews and hero worshipers. And now—tourist camps most of the time for a night's lodging. Plenty of courage therein that big fellow—the former Kansas Cowboy. He was born in Pottawatomie county, Kansas, in 1883. The visit of Big Jess to Indianapolis paid him little money. He was here one night ahead of Jim Londos, wrestling champ, and customers were few at Tomlinson Hall. His share was about sl2. A referee's license in Indiana cost $25 and he will have to land more engagements before he takes .even meal money out of the Hoosier state. Moreover, while Willard was occupied in the Tomlinson Hall ring a downtown growler tried to break into his car and snapped the handle off the car "door. More expense. It's possible that Willard will be brought back here at a later date and given a chance to earn a tidy sum that will con’ 'nee him that Indianapolis really has a heart. Willard gained the heavyweight throne on April 5, 1915, in Havana, Cuba, when he knocked out Jack Johnson in the twenty-sixth roimd. He lost the title to Jack Dempsey July 4. 1919. in Toledo, by a knockout In three rounds. Willard was unable to come out for the fourth round. Willard received SIOO,OOO for his end of the purse. He tried a comeback in 1923. knocked out Floyd Johnson in eleven rounds on May 12 and was knocked out himself by Louis Firpo in eight rounds on July 12. Then on Sept. 14 of the same season Dempsey knocked out Firpo in two rounds.

♦ Off the Backboard ♦ BY PAUL BOXEI.L

HOWDY, folks! Epidemics come in spells, say the doctors, and it looks as if Hoosicrdom is in for a good spell. For the last two or three weeks the hardwood mania has been settling over the state. It has pepped out ferociously in several spots, and now appears ready to swoop down and launch Indiana basketball on its annual frenzied course through 800 cities and hamlets.

But it’s a grand and glorious epidemic. and comes unbegrudged into its rightful own. The era of Perfect Picker Pete and his 98 Per Cent Wrong Club has faded. A few hefty grid clashes are still in the offing, but Old Man Pigskin j now takes a back seat until next fall. 000 THE old basketball dope bucket has been filling rapidly since state high school quintets began 1934-35 altercations, and it ought to be tipped over to make room for more. Let's give it a shove and see what splashes out. nan Splash! . . . the champion Logansport Berries have opened up with a rush five victories in a row! That makes it 24 wins in a string for Cliff Wells, whose pastimers knocked off 19 straight last year, including four at the state tourney. However, the Loganberries have yet to meet stiff stuff. . . . Let’s check 'em against Muncies Bearcats this Friday night. nan Splash! . . . Everett Case, the famous stall master, is back in Frankfort. his original and most successful love, and has been going ‘ fair to middlin'.” Casey, you'll remember. tried his hand at Andersen awhile after leaving Frankfort in '3l . . . also took a try in a Pacific Coast university, but signed with the Hot Dogs again for this campaign. The Casemen opened with a bang, skidding the Tipton Blue Devils, 28 to 9. But the Frankfurters ran into a 14-to-12 setback at Anderson and were slowed down again at Muncie last Friday, where the Beat cats annexed a 15-12 decision. thus making it two North Central Conference defeats in a row for Frankfort. Free throws or rather missed free throws—proved the undoing of Casey's boys at Beartown. The Hot Dogs erred on an even dozen of 16 tosses awarded by the referees. Frankfort lost a mid-week tussle to Delphi's Oracles last night. The Oracles are under new guidance. Pal Lost utter moved to Shelby ville during the summer, and his shoes are being filled by Pete Williams, who graduated from Young America. The Oracles are listed among Logansport's early victims, but came back last Friday with a 25-22 topper over Lebanon. a a a Splash . . . Kokomo is all heated up. The Wildcats, with anew hand at the helm, are riding at the top of the North Central Conference for the first time since their entrance in 1927. Alfred vPr-edadi Campbell (no relation to Tech's Tim) has guided the Kats to four straight victories, though three of them have been her-rt-threateners. The 'Cats walked through Russiaville. 19-11; edged out a brilliant Peru team, 24 to 20; escaped Anderson’s Indians. 19 to 17. and barely made the grade at Marion, 21 to 20 Anderson’s cagers muffed eight ot 11 free tosses against the Kats. yet the contest wound up in a 17-17 tie, and two overtimes were necessary. mum It was in this fray that Kokomo hailed anew star in Donnie Match-

ett, a hoop-sniping guard. Matchett dribbled in to knot the count at 12-all at the half period, Matchett sunk a long one to tie the score as the gun sounded, and Matchett poled the winning tally in the second extra go. Kokomo entertains Lafayette Friday. And. as an added thought, Matchett tallied the basket that edged out Marion, 21 to 20. 0 Splash! . . . one of the best rivalry conflicts of the next week-end will see Vincennes stacking chips against Burl Friddle's Hatchets of Washington Friday. Vincennes will be the scene of carnage. It’s an old, old rivalry, and the annual visit of the Friddlers to Vincennes is the occasion for the cage spirits of the rivals to rise to the highest of the year. Each team has lost to the mighty Bedford this year. Washington by four points and Vincennes by six. The Sons of Alice were. tendered a surprise setback by Sullivan last Friday at Vincennes. Sullivan won, 18 to 13. The Hatchets have another De Jernett, a kid brother of the famed Davie. 0 0 0 Splash! . . . Jeff of Lafayette takes to the spotlight early. Abie Masters basketeers outclassed Craw fordsville to start out, and wrecked a perfect slate of five straight wins for a fast Connersville five last Friday by trouncing the Panthers, 31 to 22. Mose Pruitt's Spartans previously had smothered such aggregations as Newcastle, Muncie and Columbus. 000 Splash! . . . Indianapolis High Schools got off to a start about as impressive as the Giants’ National League windup. Shortridge took it on the chin from Southport's Cardinals, who fell down before Richmond in the next contest. Cathedral took a going-over from Peru. The Circus City pastimers have been going big guns under anew coach. Broad Ripple was nosed out by Cathedral in the opener and flopped again at Westfield. Opening indications usually "don’t mean a thing,” however, and bigger dividends will come from the locals in due time. Tech opens at Frankfort Friday. Greenfield comes to Shortridge. Cathedral takes on a tough assignment at Noblesville. The Kennedy cagers boast a triumph over Newcastle for a victory appetizer. Manual tries Ben Davis at Ben Davis, and Mooresville will invade Washington High School for the Continentals' “test case." and Broad Ripple collides with Warren Central Saturday night at the Shortridge gym. a a a Splash! . . . And that's all for today. ALL-STAR GRID TILT By l nit< and Press TUSCALOOSA. Ala., Dec. 5 Hank Crisp, director of athletics at (he University of Alabama, and a gridiron squad of former players on Alabama college elevens left here today for Washington to engage a team of District of Columbia AllStart in axharity game next Saturday.

Gehrig Second to Bonura in Loop Fielding Chisox First-Sacker Made Only Five Errors, Official Averages Reveal. By United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 5 —Lou Gehrig nearly matched his league-leading hitting of last season with equally superb fielding. The Yankee first baseman was second only to Hank Bonura, Chicago White Sox first year man, in fielding at first base in the American League. Bonura topped the circuit with an average of .996, two points better than Gehrig’s figures. Another release of official averages, which previously had given Gehrig the offensive championship for 1934 in nomers and hitting and in other similar departments, reveal that Bonura made ony five errors in 1321 total changes. Gehrig made eight errors in 1372 chances. Melillo Takes Honors Second basemen were led again by Oscar Melillo of the St. Louis Browns, whose .981 was identical with the average he compiled in 1933 to take the leadership. Last season he was tied with Max Bishop of the Red Sox, but the latter participated in only fifty-seven games, while Melillo missed only eight games during the season. He also was on top in double plays with 110. William Kamm, Cleveland veteran, topped third baseman with an average of .978, and thus set a record as the first to lead at his position for the eighth season. Lyn Lary topped the league's shortstops for the Red Sox with .965, but Eric McNair of the Athletics accepted the most chances and participated in the most double plays. Simmons Does Well The veteran Sammy Bvrd of the Yankees led the outfielders. In 104 games that brought him 160 chances, he made only two errors for an average of .988 and he was among the few outfielders to start a double play. A1 Simmons of the White Sox appeared in 134 games and ranked second with .987. In addition, he started three double plays. Rick Ferrell of the Red Sox set the pace for catchers. He finished with an average of .990 and made only six errors. Schoolboy Rowe of Detroit led 16 pitchers who turned in perfect fielding performance. He had more total chances than any of the rest, 55, three of them involving double plays and did not make a bobble. Willis Hudlin of Cleveland erred only once in 73 chances.

Continentals Point for Basket Rivals Coach Rpwland Jones sent the Washington High School quintet through a lengthy scrimmage yesterday afternoon in preparation for a pair of week-end tilts. Tomorrow night the Continentals tackle Mooresville at the West Side gym, and Saturday they will journey to Southport. Probable starting lineup for the fray tomorrow is Sartor and Hooser, forwards; Noe and Macy, guards, and Lasley, center. Kautsky Foes List Powerful Lineup Savoys to Bring Galaxy of Stars Here Sunday. The Kautsky A. C. basketball team will be out to avenge two setbacks of last season when It tackles the Savoy Big Five of Chicago at the local Armory Sunday afternoon at 3. The local pastimers expect to find it a difficult task, however, as the Negro quintet has been strengthened by several ace players. Jack Mann, former Muncie *High School star; Red Mills, whose sniping spelled defeat for the locals last year, ar.d • Bruiser” Ford are among the Savoy hold-overs from the last campaign. Big Train Johnson, all-state center at Hyde Park High School of Chicago. Zach Clayton of Pennsylvania, and Jackie Bethards are the new members. The Savoys point to Bethards as one of the outstanding cagemen in the game. He has played nine years of pro ball with Philadelphia clubs, and his lively chatter keeps the Windy City boys on their toes in every contest. Shelby Stars Take on Packers Tonight The Hilgemeier Packers will clash with the Shelbyville All-Stars at the Pennsy Gym tonight at 8:30. The locals will face some stiff opposition to retain their clean slate, for the Shelby aggregation has an aray of former high school and college stars in their lineup. Chief among the star snipers appearing with the visitors is Dutch Richeson, former member of the Franklin Wonder Five, and later with the Olsen Swedes professional team. The locals, fresh from their third victory of the season won at Frankfort last Saturdaj. will start with the following lineup: Shipp and Evans, forwards; Proffitt, center, and Baird and Campbell, guards.

Butler Tunes for Basketball Opener Saturday

BUTLER plunges into its 1934-35 basketball season at the fieldhouse Saturday night against Earlham and before the curtain falls the local Bulldogs will have faced some of the best hardwood quintets in the country. It will mark the beginning of the thirteenth season at Butler for Tony Hinkle, who found the No. 13 lucky in football, his team winning the state secondary college title. According to advance dope the Butler quintet looks flighty. That is. it has potential power that will enable it to topple over the best, and again it may sink into a sl’”up that will permit an ordinary five to hand it a trimming. The lid-lifter is no setup. Blair Gullion, coach, forms some fast fives at the Quaker school and the second encounter against Indiana Central will have the Bulldogs facing a teafn that “set them down” last year and which already has a couple of wins to its credit. Among the returning lettermen holding regular jobs in the early lineup are Ralph Brafford, former Shortridge star on the team of 1932, that reached the state final high school tournament* Earl Overman is looking good at a forward post, while Gene Demmary, Roscoe Batts and Scott Armstrong complete the lineup that likely will start against Earlham here Saturday night.

Eddie Casey Resigns as Harvard Football Coach Adam Walsh, Line Coach and Captain of N. D.’s Four Horseman Team, May Be Successor. i By Lnitcd Press , CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 5. —Resignation of Edward J. (Eddie) Casey as head football coach at Harvard, rumored since the middle of the last season, was announced last night by William J. Bingham, director of athletics.

The announcement was brief, and expressed ‘‘deep appreciation” for Casey's nine years coaching at Harvard, first of the freshman team, later as back field coach, and at the last four years as head varsity coach. Casey’s successor is expected to be named within a few' days. Bingham refused to say whether Harvard would break precedent by seeking a coach outside'its ranks. Leading possibility wqs Adam Walsh, former captain and ceftter of Notre Dame’s four horsemen, who coached the. line this season. His name is persistently spoken in connection with the vacancy, and he has the backing of the Harvard Crimson, undergraduate daily newspaper. Others believed considered were Harry Kipke of Michigan. Lou Little of Columbia and Andy Kerr of Colgate. Commenting on his resignation, Casey, star half back in ’l9, said he felt a change would be better for Harvard football. "It wasn't going anywhere,” he said. “Neither was Harvard. Four years was long enough to tell the story.”

Browning was counted out of Saturday's Notre Dame game when his right leg was broken yesterday when he'tackled Bill Howard.

Londos Retains Title as Coleman Misses Kicks Alert and Agile Mat Champ Seizes Openings to Flatten Abe; Capacity Crowd Watches Lively Action. The king isn’t dead! Long live the king! ■ Abe Coleman, the animated fireplug, kicked himself right out of the heavyweight championship picture in the feature wrestling tussle at the

Armory last night. With 4000 customers jammed into the arena, Jim Londos, emperor of all he surveys in the mat world, disposed of the Hoosier hero in straight falls, winning the first in 33 minutes and the second in 14 minutes. Abie, whose "kangaroo kick” had piled up an impressive string of victories here, couldn’t connect in four earnest efforts, and as a result, handsome Jim still wears his purple toga today and Coleman is wearing black and blue. After holding the upper hand over the champion through 30 minutes of speedy action, Coleman took off on the flying trips that proved his downfall. He missed, bumped his head, and Jim jumped on him for the fall. A series of rolls and an airplane spin were too much for little Abie in the second fall. Londos was forced at top speed throughout the tussle by the 220pound "half-pint” who claims the Jewish championship of the world, and when the struggle was finished, the huge crowd gave both grapplers a big hand. Outweighed by two pounds, the champion found Coleman willing to mix in any fashion the kingpin selected. Twice Londos pinned punishing short-arm scissor clamps on the Hebrew Hercules that sent Abie squirming for the ropes. “Jeems” trotted out most of his pet holds to treat the customers before ending the action. A major portion of the evening’s excitement was created by Everett Marshall, colorful Coloradoan, and burly Dick Raines, Texas toughy. For once the fans got what they’ve been crying for—and then resented it. Despite repeated warnings, Raines persisted in using the strangle hold, and was disqualified after 21 minutes by Heze Clark, referee—something Heze has neglected to do in previous tussles despite the pleadings of the crowd. After raising Marshall’s hand,

DIZZY ACCEPTS! By United Press ST. LOUIS, Dec. s.—Jerome Herman (Dizzy) Dean, ace hurler of the St. Louis Cardinals, telephoned Sam Breadon from his winter home at Bradenton, Fla., today that 1935 terms were acceptable. The exact amount was not immediately known. Breadon is president of the Cardinals, 1934 world champions.

both Everett and the Panhandle powerhouse asked to continue—and the crowd begged for more—but Clark, backed by Sam Murbarger, inspector of the state athletic commission, countered with an emphatic "no.” Marshall, who ranks as one of the outstanding challengers for the Londos laurels, was the recipient of a first-class going-over before Raines was disqualified. In the opener, Tom (Meany) Marvin, new No. 1 public mat enemy, was held to a 30-minute draw by Dorve Roche, New Orleans. Every seat and standing space in the Armory was filled, and nundreds were turned back at the door.

McKechnie Reports 1935 Job Clinched By Times Special PITTSBURGH, Qec. 5.—8i1l McKechnie, manager of the Boston Braves, today disclosed he has signed a contract to manage the club again next year.

Fuchs, president of the Boston Nationals.
