‘Big Boy’ Davis Coleman's Foe in Mat Tussle 'Half Pint’ Jewish Star to Face Ohio Bruiser Here Tonight. Big Boy Davis, 232, the burly Ohio rough-and-tumble grappier nd Abe (Half Pint) Coleman. 205, Jewish mat ace, tangle in the feature attraction on tonight's ailwrestling card of the Hercules A. C. at the Armory. The match is the first "freak" tussle offered here this season, and it promises to provide an unusual amount of action. Davis,, in addition to outweighing Coleman by 27 pounds, is much taller than his opponent. Big Boy is six feet, two inches and Coleman five feet, four Inches. The'main go match is for two falls out of three while the two sujv porting bouts are one fall affairs. In the semi-windup, Fred Grobmier, 202, the "lowa Cornstalk,” clashes with George Hillis. 203, of Canada. Grobmier proved his "class'" here last week when he beat Tom Marvin. Asa special feature on tonight’s card, Otto Kuss, 220 Indiana grappier, enters the professional ranks by meeting Eddie Wirth, 212, of Nashville, Tenn. Kuss comes touted at a fast “big boy” with a strong j college record. Wirth is an experi- j enced performer. First bout is at 8:30.
‘Socking Soldier’ Signed for Fistic Action at Armory Wilson to Face Cincinnati Battler Friday. Jimmy Wilson, the 170-pound "Socking Soldier" from Ft. Harrison, will try for his third consecutive knockout triumph at the Armory Friday night when he appears in one of the bouts on the "California style” fistic card of the Hercules A C. Matchmaker Lloyd Carter leported today that he has signed Harley Washburn, 170, of Cincinnati, to test Wilson. Wilson has scored tw’o quick victories in the last two mitt tossing shows, beating Jimmy Walker. Indianapolis, both times in less than a minute. Armory patrons have had little chance to “class” Wilson, but they are sure of one thing—he can hit. Carter will offer eight scraps of four rounds each on his third program. A heavyweight battle brings together Smokey Maggard. Cincy, and Gene Junken. Flackville. Maggard drew with Lou Thomas last week. Johnny McCoy, local lightweight, opposes Bob Kahn, Flackvi’le, in another bout. Two-fisted bouts with the fighters battling from gong to gong have featured the first two "California style" shows. Three knockouts featured last week's card.

Directs Continentals
+ W/A • Hp F r rr
COACH ROLAND JONES, above, has lined up a strong cage team at the local Washington High School this season. The popular West Side mentor, who produced several star Continental teams in other years, has tutored his charges through two victories and one defeat thus far this campaign. The Continentals edged out Mooresville and tripped Danville, but were defeated by a strong Plainfield five. Coach Jones will take the Washington netmen to the Broad Ripple gym for a tussle with the Rockets Friday night.
De Jernett and Inglehart Are Foes in Local Clash t Cagers Who Played Together on Title Team to Be Rivals as Central Normal Meets Greyhounds. Back in 1930, Dave De Jernett and Ed (Jingles) Inglehart played basketball together on the Washington <lnd.) Hatchets’ state high school championship team. Now the two are on different college squads and tonight they play against each other here, at Indiana Central College.
Dave is Indiana Central’s center and ace player, while Inglehart holds the same position on Central Normal’s quintet. The game is scheduled for 8:15 tonight at the University Heights gymnasium. Although Indiana Central's Greyhounds are favorites to beat the visitors, the absence of Clyde Quackenbush. who suffered recurrence of a knee injury in the Butler game Saturday night, may so hamper the Greyhounds that they will be hard pressed to win. Despite the loss to Butler, first of the season for the Greyhounds, there is no sadness at the South Side school and Coach Harry Good is going merrily along with his charges, getting them ready for the game tonight and an encounter against Cincinnati at the Ohio city, Thursday night. Coach Good intimated his start-
ing line-up would include Big Dave at Center, with Schaefer and Spurgeon at guards, Byers at one of the forward positions and either Dorton or Shaul at the other. Coach S. H. Leitzman of the Danville squad has not announced his starters otner than Inglehart.
A Dog’s Life By Leon F. Whitney r f 'HERE are half a dozen people in the world that stand out so far above the rest when it comes to preparing the coats of terriers for show that that is the reason why they command such fabulous salaries in the fashionable kennels of the country. Personally I am frank to say that I don't know anything about the proper preparation of a
terrier for the show ring, and that is no disgrace when one considers that there are only half a dozen men who do. But when it comes to the question of coat care in other dogs I’m convinced that it is chiefly a matter of diet and keeping the loose hairs re-

moved. The skin of a dog is an organ of the body and we find a natural periodicity in it. We know there are times of this cycle when the skin is subject to infections that never trouble it at other times But leaving aside the infections and considering a healthy skin. I believe it should exhibit regular periods. The new hair is developed, lives several months, dies of old age and is replaced with anew crop. The hair follicles allow’ the hair to drop out, and then is when we find loose hair on rugs and furniture when we keep our dogs in the house. The way to keep the coat healthy therefore, is not by putting medicine on the outside, unless there is infection, but by putting the right kind of food on the inside, and that I should be no great trick. The dog needs protein for hair development, and when the skin is padded with a little fat under it feels softer and more luxurious. Vitamine G is especially required as well as minerals. In fact, the deficiency in any of the vita mines results in a lack of lustre in a dog's coat, that is with the exception of Vitamine C which a dog manufacturers himself. There are several stripping combs on the market, and I believe their use should be extended. You have no idea how good it makes the dog feel to have the dead hair pulled | out. and you have no idea how much time it will save you in housework, j by pulling it out of the dog quickly, j instead of trying to remove them from the house. Next I am going to tell you of one kick back I have already had on “Do dogs reason?" Do you have a dog problem? Address communications to Leon P.

Steve Hamas Accepts Bout With German Heavy Contender’s Manager Claims Baer Stalling Off Title Fight. By T nitrij Prrs NEW YORK. Dec. 18.—Charlie Harvey, patriarch of boxing managers, has been hollering "no" to all offers for his Steve Hamas to fight somebody, hoping Max Baer might display some eagerness to defend his world championship. "Max Baer has done nothing but monkey us around," Uncle Charlie said. He thereupon cabled acceptance of terms for a bout between his Steve and Max Schmeling in Hamburg, Germany, March 10. Hamas’ end of the purse will be $25,000 guaranteed by Walter Rothenburg, Hamburg promoter. Harvey signed for the bout last night over the 12-round route. “We’re back in circulation," Harvey said. ’“We might box at Miami later on, in New York and elsewhere. But we’re not going to fool away any more time with Baer. ,My Steve has done everything they’ve asked. If Baer decides to recognize the contract we hold with him, we’ll be ready." Hamas, former all-round athletic star at Penn State, has moved up to number one among contenders in recent months. In his last start he took a close decision over Art Lasky. Schmeling has knocked out Walter Neusel, a fellow-countryman, in Germany. In their previous meeting, Hamas punched Schmeling full of holes, handing him one of the worst beatings of his career.
Butler Swimmers Hosts to Purdue James Clark to Lead Local Squad Tonight.

Butler’s chief hopes will rest on James Clark, student coach and backstroke specialist, and Bill Koss, Robert Kay and Gaylord Disher, sophomore free style men, who were outstanding last season on the freshman squad. Richard Sunai, native Hawaiian, beginning his first intercollegiate competition, is a promising backstroke candidate. Only one veteran is on the Purdue squad. He is Randolph Barnes, Ft. Wayne, fancy diver and backstroke star. The Boilermaker coach is Larry Labree. Other members of the Butler squad include Joe Eastman, Ralph Taylor, Joe Williams. Spurgeon Johnson, Robert Straughan, all free stylists; Elmer Dolzai, diver, and Jack Hunter and Jack Ochiltree, breast stroke men. , HOLD ARCHERY EVENT An archery shoot will be staged by the Indianapolis Archery Club at the Tabernacle Presbyterian gym tonight at 7:30.

OFF THPIBACKBOARD by paul BOXEummmmmmmmmm
THE "co” will be knocked out of co-leaders at Logansport tomorrow night. For quite a few weeks the distinction of team-supreme in the North Central Conference has been shared by at least three high schools. But the field narrowed to two—Jeff of Lafayette and Logansport—when the Jeffmen co-llected too many points for New Castle’s Trojans Friday
j night. Abie Masters *nd his Jeffmen will invade Logansport with a record of five straight white marks tomorrow, and, needless to say, will ofter the Berries their biggest hurdle to date. If the truth be known, the Lafayette crew has overcome the tougher assignments in early opponents. But that’s not saying the Berries can t do it when they n eet a tougher obstacle. Backboard stated in the State Edition yesterday that Logansport chalked up number 27 of a row against Anderson. That was an error. It was number 26. But Backboard was merely crossing the bridge before it was hatched. He believes number 27 will be captured tomorrow night by Mr. Cliff Wells and "Cos." n u u Among other first-rate entanglements tomorrow night are Kokomo versus Newcastle at Trudgertown in a North Central mixup and Connersville against Richmond at the Spartan barracks. u n u TWO undefeated clubs will pastime on their home floors tonight. Franklin’s Grizzly Cubs will have the candle out for number nine when Greenfield visits . . . and the Cubs are likely due for a closer shave than you'd expect. Bedford entertains Seymour’s Owls ... if dropping them into the stone quarry may be called entertaining . . . the Cutters also seek the ninth. n n Backboard hune out the “Here's-the-Answer” sign on sixteen games last week. Eleven selections rang the bell; live foozled. Now, feackboard wouldn't mind those five rebellions, but that the chief offenders were four local teams. Shortridge, Tech, Washington and Cathedral all reversed Backboard's decisions. I ask you, is that accommodatin’ a guy? Manual alone stood by the colors. Lebanon over Frankfort was the state scrap missed. tt tt tt DOT and Gae of Tech advise Backboard to herald it far and wide that anew star is rising on the East Side (not meant for poetry). “Tech has found another great center. Chris Mocas,” they write. "He isn’t so very tall for a center, 6 feet 3 inches, but he sure is speedy." n u u Six feet 3 inches . . . tsk . . . tsk ... a mere midget. tt a tt Handy Hoop Highlights—Dutch Lonberg at Northwestern is one of the many college mentors who appreciate Hoosier hardwood talent .. . McAnally, who hails from Greencastle. Vance of Logansport and Bender of Kokomo are first-string-ers on the Wildcat roster . . . Capt. Plummer of Michigan is a Wabash High School product . . . Columbus and Bedford wrestlers clashed as an added attraction to the ColumbusBedford basketball game Friday night . . . dispatches failed to state whether the matches were awarded on four personal fouls or three falls . . . the tip-off has become obsolete in the Pacific Coast Conference . . . the ball is put in play after each score from the end lines . . . Delphi’s Oracles scored only one point in the first half of the skirmish they dropped to the Staggmen of Monticello Friday . . . Newcastle N. Men’s Club members will be guests of the high school at the tussle with Kokomo Friday night . . . the Trojans’ tilt at Greencastle next Saturday originally was slated for tomorrow night . . . Hunk iVan-' cis, hustling coach of the Jeffersonville Red Devils, was among those present in Berry Stadium when the Wellsmen socked Anderson Friday night . . . how do they look, Hunk? . . . Kokomo’s Wildcats have been troubled by poor foul shooting all season . . . that is, until they hooked into Muncie .. . then the Cats sewed up the game by connecting on four straight gift tosses in the last two minutes of scramble . . . the Walnut Grove-Sugar Creek game booked for last was postponed . . . scarlet fever reared its unwelcome head in Sugar Creek . . . and the high school students were quarantined. Could Kirklin have had five Johnsons, Kirklin would have drubbed Sharpesville, 85-to-32, the other
night. If the Kirklins had been without one Johnson, they would have lost. 32-to-3. The gist of it all is that Sharpesville trimmed Kirklin, 32-to-20; and Johnson, the center, scored 17 of the losers' 20 markers. m a a Backboard stands informed by Mary Gene Daily qi Tech that the Green warriors "minus a Townsend are struggling along as best they can." The Tech informer thanks Shortridgers for their support of Tech when the Eastsiders cavorted in the State last march. *a a Fred Fechtman, I. U. center, is not 6 feet 9 inches tall. And he's rather wrought up about all the publicity he's been getting about his height. So now, all the cracks about “towering into the stratosphere" and “how’s the weather up there?” will have to pass by the board. For Fred is only 6 feet ■ 7 inches tall exactly which ■ really puts him down to earth again. —Seymour E. Francis in The Bloomington Telephone. a a £ lISTEN to the "birdies" sing: j “Here’s doubting that Manual will “Slay Southport.” "Wallop j Washington.” "Stop Shortridge” or "Graze Greenfield.” And if they shoi.ld get up against Tech in the j city tourney—well, that’s just duck soup for the Green and White."
