By Eddie Ash KAUTSKYS, PACKERS STILL DRIFT mm* CITY NET ‘WAR’ AT STANDSTILL
'tmie opjKJsing factions in 11 local professional basketball “war” haven’t reached the point yet where they are ready to take ofT their coats and go to it. In short, like the Japanese, they are bristling to get going in a scrap, but don’t feel quite safe enough to start the firewoiks. Th“ Kautsky A. C sand the Hilgemeier Packers, rival bidders i or local Sunday ba ket patronage, seemingly wish to collide in a tnreegame serif's, but the dickering over terms so far has not reached much beyond the bickering stages. Perhaps a commissioner will have to be called in to bring the boys together, and again the teams may not meet at all. The rivals are at odds on hall expenses, division of the gate receipts, game officials, dates and player limits. It is said both favor Feb. 3 for the lid-lifter, however, in the event contracts are signed.
Pardon the Suggestions TF the pro basket pastimers need some suggestions to help iron out the differences on terms, here are a few: Winner take all and pay the hall and incidental expenses and officials. Or, share expenses and winner take 60 per cent of spoils and loser 40 per cent. Name a half dozen competent officials and toss coin to choose the referee. Laser on com toss to name umpire. Lineups to stand as of last games played bv both teams previous to Friday, Jan. 4 Start series within two weeks after signing agreement. After which order double detail of at games. The basket-going fans desire to look on a real scrap and both the Kautskys anct Packers are loaded with taient. Here’s hoping the much discussed series becomes a reality. It would take up the slack of winter Sunday afternoons for Indianapolis sports enthusiasts. 0 a a Uaer Fight Pictures t'ILMED at the ringside and sound recorded, the official motion pictures of th‘- recent Baer-Levin-sky heavyweight battle in which Champion Max Baer flattened the Chicago “Kingfish” in the second round of what was scheduled to be a four-round scrap, will be shown at the Lyric Theater for the week commencing next Friday as an added feature to the Lyric’s usual sta"e and screen program. Fight fans in general anticipated that the bout would be merely an ex i ion though the promoters ad "Vtisod that Baer's title would be a .lake, probably it would have been welling more than an exhibition h'd not Levinsky taunted ra°r. aid warn the announced I the second round the ’Kingfish" • m°de the mistake of inviting the champion to ”ceme on and fight.” | Baer accep.ed the invitation w T ith j such alacr.tv that in some 30 sec- | onds Levinsky was stretched on the canvas. The pictures also include the j bout between Max’s giant younger bro’her, Buddy, and a heavyweight named G'rie Stanton, a prelim to th'' Fie -Levinsky affair, in which B <■’ 'v upheld the repo'atnn for f r ung by knocking out his opporert.

DOWN thpy go, one by one. General Law of Averages overtakes fm sooner or later, and. with one merciless sweep, cuts ’em right down out of that select undefeated class. Two young gentlemen by names of Stiers and Graham, with aptitudes for swishing nets when they should be swished, were mighty helpful to Mr. Averages last night, and in a splendid last-minute ral v shoved She'byville’s Golden Bears across to a victory over the crafty Grizzly Cubs at Franklin.
rh~lt-yville wen. 30 to 2S. in a sw?ll pitched battle that raged into an overtime sesion. and Franklin’s previous 10 c*~n ecutive w n feathers went for naug.it as far as an undfoiud p ume for til > season was concern and. The Bears b g in in a blaze'and wound up in a holocaust. In between fires they just kept a little glow going while the Cubs burned themselves up. Gutting. Snelby’s center of no little ability. offensively. connected. E. Page dittoed. Stiers came through with the same—and Shelby was leading, 6 to 0. before the game was two minutes old. But the Cub forwards began working the ball into the pivot circle to one Gene Anderson. who should come in for a little discussion later, and Franklin look and good in an 18 to 11 lead at the half time. Gene Anderson made 12 of those 18 joy-marks. E. Pace slipprd under for the only bucket of the second period for Shelby. a a a Came the third quarter, and not a goal, not a foul -not a point did those unbeaten Cubs, conquerors of Muncie and Martinsville, chalk up. Stiers and E. Page managed six for Shelby and it was 18-to-17. Mr Paul L stutter's Golden Bears, went to work on those hoeps m the last session, and a theretofore confident capacity mob of Franklin patriots saw the remainder of the game from a standing posture. The cries of anguish were deafening. The Bears took the front. 21-20. on a bucket by Stiers. but Eugene Anderson caged a couple and Franklin led aga.n. Graham sunk a long one—in fact most all Shelby goals were of the iangv class—and E. Page scored a free toss — 24-24. J Anderson put the Cubs ahead with a bucket under the hoop. but. with a few seconds to play. Graham buried another ircm afar out and into the overtime they skipped. Gene Anderson again pivoted one in. but what did the obstinate Mr. Stiers do but sink two of the prettiest shots you fver saw. Some ball player—is Shelby's Stiers. Well, that settled it, 3028 Franklin didn't get No. 11 and Jeffersonville can now claim some sort of distinction or other. B B B Backboard is a little surprised at Coach Fuzzy Vandivier of Franklin. Now. it may have b?en that Coach Vandivier was holding out —numerous enemy scouts were in the camp—but every Franklin scoring play of the game wound up in Gene Anderson, the center. It was plenty successful, too —Gene rolled up exactly 20 points on beautifully executed pivot shots. But. look. Mr. Vandivier —what if something should hanpen to Gene in a game?—four personals, or a couple of wellpointed bulldog guards? B B B J. Anderson looked every part
There Comes a Time CONNIE MACK says Babe Ruth outplayed all of the younger diamond tossers on the tour of the Orient by the American League AllStars and expressed the opinion that the big fellow still has a lot of baseball left. This has led some baseball observers to predict that Ruth will be back as a player with the New York Yankees this year, but it's this writer’s guess that Owner JakRuppert is not likely to make any vigorous effort to induce the Babe to change his mind about not signing another contract as a player. Manager Joe McCarthy’s feelings might be hurt. Not long ago Owner Ruppert, while day dreaming and engaging in hot stove league conversation, commented as follows: "The success of the Yankees no longer is intertwined with, and dependent upon, the success of Ruth. Naturally, I am more than sorry. I doubt if baseball ever again will see another player like him, in the surroundings which helped to build him into a colossal figure. "But there comes a time when a ball player, brewer, club owner or artistic genius—especially a club owner—goes down the hill. Human desire, sentiment can not stop it. I would be glad if some other major league organization made Ruth a manager. My own team already has a satisfactory leader.” 0 0 0 City Boxers at Odds THERE is a grudge fistic clash brewing on the local cauliflower ear rialto between Paul Lee and j Scotty Scotten, Indianapolis’ rival j featherweights. From what one 1 gathers on strolls about the city ; there is a green-eyed jealousy angle j connected with the differences between the lads. You hear that Scotten feels that Lee chiseled in on the local territory when Paul moved here from Tennessee a few years ago and you also hear that Lee claims he was high-hatted by Scotty. Anyway.! the little glove tossers are said to be i keyed to high pitch over the featherweight supremacy in Indianapolis. Last night, on the side lines during the Hercules A. C. fistic program at the Armory it was whispered that Lee and Scotten probably will be matched for a ten-rounder here in the near future and that there will oe a side bet of sizeable proportion. Beth lads have succeeded in build■vi up a strong local following.
a capable marksman if given an opnortunily to snipe occasionally. The Grizzly Cubs w ere extremely loathe io shoot from the field. P.c ’tically every shot was counted under the basket —and on some ot the cleverest formations ever you laid eyes an Gene Anderson is the best pivot "whirl" eager seen this season—but Backboard still maintains that Clutch of Anderson is the Dost pivot “feeder.” The Grizzly guards, Long and Short, were strong on the defensive. but had little to offer offensively, their sole duty being to work the ball down the floor. Short, who stands upward beyond six feet and weighs 200 pounds, tallied one oueket. Backboard absolutely has resolved to make no punnv mention of the long and short of the Franklin story. a a a Don't let the result fool you. The Grizzlies still are the same fast, clever team that knocked off 10 capable opponents. Long. Houghland and J. Anderson are not impressive by way of size, but they've enough speed to outrun even Jeffersonville's firemen for awhile. And as for Mr. Lostutter's Bears, they're, oig, they're rough, and —watch 'em, they're climbing up. b b a Good grief. Gladys! What's happened to those Berries? I'll be switched if they didn't tumb'e again last night when Peedad Campbell and his Koko Kats moved in on ’em. The score was 29-to-19, which looks decisive enough, and yessir, figures don't prevaricate, that's four straight melees those bewildered Berries have tossed away!

Baer Eligible to Fight 4-Round Bouts in N. Y.
By United Press NEW’ YORK. Jan s.—Max B.'er has permission of New York s’ate to fight four-round bouts if he risks his title. The athletic commission ruled the heavyweight champion out a few days ago and then ruled him hack in again yesterday. The champion’s two-round knockout of King Levinsky at Chicago was the motivating influence. However, the champion can't come into New York state against any popovers. If the champion boxes in New York it will be against a legitimate contender and his title will be at stake, regardless of the scheduled distance of the bout.

, Thomas opened up in the first i round, dropping Wilson just before the bell, and the soldier took an-
other lacing in the second frame. Wilson never quit throwing fists, even though outclassed all the way. Billy Burke, dandy little Cincinnati junior lightweight, outpunched Billy Breedlove, Indianapolis, in another four-heat slugfest that enlivened the weekly “California style” program at the Armory. The Buckeye southpaw bombarded the local battler with both" hands, but couldn’t produce a knockout. Breedlove, too, cut loose with some healthy wallops that connected. Jimmy Shannon, Indianapolis lightweight, weathered a stormy third round to get the judges’ nod over Mike Dupnak, Indianapolis. After trailing in the first two rounds, Dupnak nailed Shannon in a corner and plastered him with everything in sight in the third, but couldn’t score a knockdown. The verdict was unpopular with the crowd, which believed Mike was entitled at least to a draw. Jimmy Kreider, lanky Cincinnati lightweight, handed Ted Ramey of Lebanon a neat pasting before putting him away for keeps in the second round, and Tillman Garrett, another Ft. Harrison battler, disposed of Dick Porter, Anderson lightweight, in handy fashion. Cherokee Bob Reese had too much left hand for Jackie Cooper, Muncie 122pounder, and walked off with the nod. In other bouts Jackie Collins. Muncie bantamweight, defeated Luis Carpentero, Cincinnati veteran, and Bud Ehrman, local heayweight, beat Gene Junken of Shelbyville. Interest in the lively cards promoted by Lloyd Carter for the Hercules A C. is growing each week and last night’s crowd was the largest to date. SHARKEY DEFEATS LEE By l imes Special MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. s.—Jackie Sharkey, well-known local featherweight, defeated Paul Lee, Indianapolis, on points in an eight-round bout here last night. Sharkey held a weight advantage of four pounds. Lee Savoldi, St. Paul heavyweight, got the decision over Larry Udell, Aberdeen, S. D„ over the ten-round route. Udell knocked out Savoldi a year ago.

A Dog ’s Life By Leon F. Whitney
OUR whole conception of diety and growth took a change now long ago when Mendel and OsboriVe t made their studies on how fast it was possibie to grow rats from 60 to 200 grams. If you plot a curve of > the growth of a rat, you will wind that this curve is a straight line or nearly a straight line, if it grows well, up until it reaches a weight of
200 grams and then it begins to drop and make a curved line. Back in the days when scientists were making experiments on rats, it was considered a good growth if the rats grew from 60 to 200 grams in 80 days. Then Mendel and Osborne decided to try and make
HP r .
them grow faster by feeding different foods. A They mixed up a concoction com -Jr posed of red dog ilour 65 per cent* meat scrap 13 per cent, casein Ks per cent, alfalfa 10 per cent ana* salt 1 per cent. They fed it and! the rats grew the standard amount in 38 days. The scientific world suddenly awoke to the fact that the old standard was discarded. Now they wondered if it would not be passible to make rats grow even faster. So many of them have been working away trying different methods, and Mendel-Osborne tried a mixture with a considerable amount of liver and lettuce in it. Behold, the rats grew the distance in 25 days or in less than a third of the time required by the old standard. This set up anew mark to shoot at. But now the same ideas were applied to human diets and before long we were growing our children faster than they used to be grown. And then the new ideas began to be applied to dogs. Some years ago I sent out a questionnaire to hundreds of dog breeders asking how early certain breeds matured. I tabulated all the replies and published them. Some breeds, they agreed, required 18 months. But by carefully selecting foods. I have grown these breeds in half that time. Probably some of you have, too. The old standards in dog growth are now in the discard. I have grown large breeds to ma-J turity in seven and a half months* so they never grew any larger aft.*-®! er that. But whether that growth is desirable, is matter. We’ll consider it some time. Do you k low how to break a dog from jumping up on you? Next I • am going to tell you a simple way.
go attractions it ever has offered. , The match brings together Ray' Steele, 218, the bronzed Californian, and Everett Marshall, 215, the widely known Colorado star. Their meeting here is rated one of the most I important mat battles of the early j 1935 calendar throughout the na--1 tion. Marshall and Steele are rated the j two best contenders for the heavyweight title. Their records include draws with Jim Londos, with Steele gaining an even split in a two-hour bout and Marshall holding the Greek even in a match that went more than three hours. Steele is one of the few grapplers ever to gain a fall over Londos since the latter annexed the title in 1930. Both stars are fast and aggressive. However, it is said that neither resorts to the rough and tumbie style of action. Matchmaker Carter is backing the feature encounter with two attractive supporting bouts. Charlie Strack, Boston, returns to meet Hans Von Buesing, Germany, while Sol Slagel, Kansas, comes here after a long absence to oppose Dick Lever Nashville, T an.
