OFF THFI BACKBOARD mrnmmmmmammmmmmmml by Paul BOXELLmmmmmmm—mmm

F'UZZY VANDIVIER. the good-looking gentleman in the inset, has been traveling fast since the outset of the present season with his band of ever-set Grizzly Cubs at Franklin High School. The Cubs rounded the 10-victory post when they trimmed Greenfield Tuesday night. i 1

Fuzzy, a product of Franklin schools, took over the high school

reins soon after his grad u a t i on from the Baptist college. Since that time his success with Cub quintets has been of the in-and-out variety. But through every campaign good or “Just fair”— he has been the toast of the community. For Fuzzy, you

probably know, was the sparkplug of the great Franklin Wonder Five, coached by the late Gnz Wagner, that copped three state tourneys in a row. He also starred at Franklin College and is known as one of the greatest hardwood pa.stimers of all time—in the nation as well as Hoosierdom. Little wonder, then, that he is again the idol of Franklin, when he rewards the faithful fans this year with a team of undefeated veterans! n a a And from Manual— Dear Harkbord: Attention Mr. Joe — poor fellow. I am indeed sorry for vou. You must be in poor plight. \Vhv you’re Terh-nirally wrong. Joe. Ye*. Joe, there is a Santa Claus, and there is a fast, flashy net five out at Manual. Joe, if nnlv vou had been at Pittsboro and watched a team that never said die come from a 11-point deficiency to knot the score with seconds to play, and then lose on "one of those things.” vou would change vour mind about that duck soup for Tech. U nless thev or maybe you brought the ducks.) ISut to keep vou from harboring vain delusions as to the continued grandeur of the fireen and White, the schedulemakers have gracefullv arranged for the Krdskins to meet Terli some time around Jan. IK or 19. RED AND RIGHT. a a a Powerhouse Paul (the other’n) of Shortridge was considerably steamed up after the Blue Devils knocked off Greencastle and. while still simmering, jotted down the following conservative estimates of the performances of the Blue Bucketeers. Stetenson—superh. Jack Grown—all-around marvelous perform.! nee. McDaniels —eon! and deliberate. Dawson—fast and deceptive. Palmer—mighty fine goal getter. 000 A Continental rooter pens in to inform the commentator that Washington is on the conquering trail this year, but isn't getting the space it rates in the daily dribble. Tech, says he, is “getting to be a writing habit. They’re just one of the many this season.” 000 BACKBOARD has suddenly become aware of one of the most disheartening mishaps of the current season. Two of the "best” basketball conflicts of this year—or any other year are going to be pulled off on the same night, in different cities. Now how you gonna see both of ’em? There's the matter of a little city rumpus between Tech and Shortridge out at the Butler goalhouse next Friday night, and at the same time Logan.sport will be lining up against Jeffersonville over in Berrytown. Day by day this Berry-Red Devil melee is shaping into a real-for-sure "natural.” Jeffersonville fans are chartering a special train to chug 'em over to Logan and you can

bet they're not going for a train ride. a a a But. Mister, when you see Tech ind Shortridge playing for keeps you're not sitting in on a twilight tete-a-tete, either. So there you are! 0 0 0 THE De Paul University quintet, coached by Jim Kelly chalked up win number 21 in a row with that 35-to-17 victory’ over Valparaiso College Wednesday night. The Chicagoans compiled 18 straight clean-ups in the 1933-34 campaign and have knocked off three foes to date this season. Every man on Kelly’s varsity squad surpasses the two-yard mark. Purdue meets De Paul in Chicago Jan. 1. AND JUST ONE YEAR AGO TONIGHT the Jeffmen of Lafayette rallied in the last minute to nudge out Logansport, 2827. . . . Martinsville, then state champions, tripped Bloomington’s Panthers, 22-17. . . . Lapel, the David among Goliaths, toppled Lebanon, 38-24. . . Greenfield upset Connorsville, 23-21. . . . Goshen nosed out Central of South Bend. . . . Tech beat Columbus, 26-20. . . . and Hair of Tech made 12 points. . . . Jeffersonville trounced Cathedral by 20 points. . . . Hunk Francis used 11 men . . and Joe Dienhart employed 10. . . . Washington humbed Ripple. . . . Ward led Pittsboro to a 31-29 victory over the Redskins of Manual. . . Lou Reichel’s Park School netters stopped Acton ■ and Richmond edged out Rushville’s Lions by one point . . . but that was a year ago. . . . 000 Out of Bounds Stuff . . . among others of the Red Devil gentry going strong are the Demons of Richmond . . . Connersville was the sixth victim of the Morton crew . . . Richmond attacks Anderson’s stumbling Indians tonight . . . Hartford City and Columbia City led way and were on top at the finish in the Northeastern Indiana conference last year . . . but they’re w'ay down on the bottom this semester ... no victories each . . . Central of Ft. Wayne leads, with three conference wins . . Berne, in Adams cohnty, was defeated last night after 10 victories. . . Mt. Vernon pastimers have completed half their schedule ... in their first six games the Jeffersonville Satans have averaged better than 33 points per tussle . . . the opposition has averaged 17 . . . Bill Johnson, the Satan center, hit nine times from the field in twenty tries against Columbus . . . The North Judson team that nudged, out Plymouth in a bitterly contested sectional battle last year and came right on down to the Butler fieldhouse met the Plymouth boys Wednesday night . . . and conquered ’em again . . . Mexico also stormed Bunker Hill, 25-to-13, Wednesday night. 000 "Dear Backboard: Y’nu are indeed a gentleman, and I’ll bet that’s the first time you’ve been called that in any fan letter.” Thus does YOU KNOW ME of Plainfield puff up vour scribbler following the little piece Backboard ran on the Quakers the other day. He goes on to sav that Plainfield has booked a tilt with Martinsville next year and is gunning for other big game.

LETfc&GO HUNTING Ay ('(‘’rye De/vu/ qpHE best of the quail hunting weather came in the last ten days or two weeks of the season. In a way it was a good thing. The birds -were wary, they had been shot into by rabbit hunters and flushed wild by many a bird dog before conditions became just right for scenting. So when the pointers and setters finally were able to spot the coveys at a fair distance and give their masters a close shot on the rise, the singles made for the toughest cover in sight. Which means that there will be lots of seed for next year, for a whirling, twisting bobwhite, in heavy bushes or a sapling grove, is the hardest target known to the gunner. Anyhow, we’re through for the year. The quail season closed yesterday. Now is the time to pick up a bird dog cheap if you can afford to board the animal until next fall. 000 BUT the bunnies won’t be safe until after Jan. 10. Don’t worry about them, however. If they haven't discovered that a nice warm hole is preferable to the snuggest form in the thickest weeds, they don’t deserve to live. In two hunts within the last three weeks we have seen less than half a dozen rabbits and we’ll wager that a tramp over the same territory next spring would reveal ten times that number. 0 0 0 THERE seems to be a lot of criticism of the policy of the conservation department in liberating pheasants in Indiana. The word is getting about that the big game birds are tough on quail and that they come right into barnyards and kill young chickens. Both charges are serious if true. But we are inclined to the belief that they are offered by psuedosportsmen as an excuse for shooting pheasants illegally. Conservation officials deny that the birds are a menace to quail. They say that the experience of other states show that both species can live and prosper in the same cover. And if pheasants bother your chickens they certainly could be easily and permanently discouraged by a blast or so from the old family scattergun.

Yes, we’re afraid that these rumors are cooked up by hunters looking for an excuse to bag a few of the long-tails when the warden is in the next county. Sportsmen's clubs have welcomed the planting of parent stock everywhere. Certainly if there were valid reasons for nipping this program in the bud, these men would know it. And they haven’t complained; on the contrary, they are demanding ; more birds every month. a a a NOW that deer are doing .so well in Indiana, the question of 1 introducing wild turkeys is coming i to the fore. With the turning back of thousands of acres of submarginal land to parks and forests there will be more than enough room for succussful introduction of this big, sly game bird, in the opinion of many sportsmen. We’ll have more definite news on this subject soon. GOVERNOR READY TO FILL SHEAFFER POST List of Possible Nominees Narrows to Five. Governor Paul V. McNutt is expected to decide soon, possibly today, on an appointment to Municipal Court Three to succeed Judge William H. Sheaffer, whose commission expires Dec. 31. Under the law, the new judge must be a Republican and more than 200 Republicans who believe they stand well with the state Democratic administration, have made application for the bench appointment. The Governor admitted yesterday that his list of eligible candidates has been reduced to five, but he declined to name them. The leadingcontenders for the post are reported to be Carl Vandivier, Frank Mellis and H. B. Pike. v HOOK IS DEFEATED By Times Special DALLAS. Tex..

HELEN TO HAVE REALJOUDAY ‘Captive Girl’ Will Spend Christmas With Her Grandparents. Helen Mack, held nearly a year by her father as a virtual prisoner in a gloomy room, will have a real Christmas this year. Juvenile Judge John F. Geckler ruled yesterday that the 16-year-old girl may be removed from the Board of Guardians Home to spend the Christmas holidays with her grandparents. Mr. and Mrs. John Miller, 2625 Wade-st, Beech Grove. The girl several weeks ago was released from her imprisonment by Juvenile Court investigators, who found her in a dingy room at 1302 W. Market-st. Her father. Harry Mack, is now serving a 180-day sentence at the Indiana State Farm for child neglect. The sentence imposed on the stepmother, Mrs. Ora Mack, was suspended. Officers of the Juvenile Court, who have become attached to the lonely child, will help the grandparents in seeing that Helen has a real Christmas. The court will rule Jan. 3 on where the child shall be placed permanently. Besides the grandpa:ems and Walter S. Troutman. 115 N. Harding-st, father of Mrs. Ora Mack, two prominent Indianapolis women have offered to make a home for Helen. AIR PARITY FOR U. S. URGED BY AUTO MAN Europe Arming to Limits of Ability, He Asserts. By United Prexx CHICAGO, Dec. 21.—President L. B. Manning of the Cord Corp., picturing Europe as a continent arming itself to the limits of financial ability, urged today an immediate airplane building program to give the United States 10.000 fighting planes in the shortest possible time. The motor executive said he devoted most of a six months’ tour to inspection of European plants in which he saw men working 24-hour days on bombers, pursuit planes and training ships. The United States needs 9.000 new planes immediately, he said, to give it parity with other powers.
