By Eddie Ash COACH HA PRESTIGE UPHELD m * a I HORNBOSTEL ADDS TO I. U. FAME

A KTER what happened at the Millrose games in New \ ork Saturday night momentum was given the campaign to gain the assignment of United States Olympic track and field coach for E. C. Hayes, track mentor at Indiana University. Ben Kaufman, sports editor of the Evening World, Bloomington, started the hall rolling for Coach Hayes, and the majority of track observers will agree that the popular Crimson instructor is well-qualified to handle the Olympic position. Hayes has developed some mighty teams and individuals, and his skill is respected from coast to coast. At Madison Square Garden Saturday night Charles Hornbostel, a product of Coach Hayes, accomplished the feat of winning a "double," taking first in the 600-yard run and the 1000yard event. ' Hornbostel captured the 1000 in 2:13. within a second of the world indoor record. A little more than an hour later the former I. U. cocaptain annexed the 600 classic and pc-teci anew world indoor mark at 1 minute, 11.3 seconds. The old mark established ten years ago, was held by Alan HelfTrich. Ivan Fuqua, another Hayes product, finished third in the Millrose 600

Saturday. a a a First Time Since 1912 IT was the first time since 1912 that an American had scored a “double" in the 600 and 1000. Abel Kiviat made it in 1912 and he wa. present in New York Saturday when Hornbostel, the Hoosicr iron man. duplicated the trick. Ray Sears, the Butler University long-distance wizard, defeated the famous Joe McCluskey in the Millrose two-mile Saturday. Sears won by 15 yards in 9 minutes. 17 seconds. Don Lash, coached by Hayes at Indiana, took third place in the twomile. He is national cross-country champion. In the mile relay, the Indiana team finished fourth. Holy Cross won in 3:23.7. Pearcy Beard, lanky Dixie hurdler, won the 60-yard event over the high timbers. Ken Sandbach, Purdue star, finished third. Glenn Cunningham annexed the historic Wanamaker mile and defeated a couple of “greats, Gene Venzke and BUI Bontron. It was a fine night for Hoosierland. three firsts, three thirds, and one fourth going to the credit of athletes from ti.is state in the- national event where the cream of the country’s athletes competed. ana Golden Gloves FAigibles ''l survivors in The Indianapolis A 1 imes-Legion Golden Gloves amaf.ur boxing tourney will have nearly two weeks to prepare for the grand finale at the Armory on Friday Feb. 15.

‘G'wan, Cut Your Throat,’ Dizzy Tells Mr. Rickey

BY LAWTON CARVER Unitfd Prfss Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Feb. 4.—Dizzy Dean announced today that he would not pit'-h for the Cardinals next season tor less than $25,000 and left the n xt move up to the club in the first outstanding holdout wrangle of the year. The ianky righthander of the world champions asked for and got a con . nee with his bosses, but he got no closer to a salary agreement.

President Sam Breadon and Manager F'unkic Frisch, irate over Dizzy's anno uucment upon his arrival that he was a holdout a tier ! he had accepted, they asserted, an offer of $17,500, haif neartedly went 1 into a huddle with nim vesterday j at the Hotel Gvoernor Clinton. They argued until time to dress for the baseball writers' banquet at j which Deau was the guest of honor last night. At the finish Rreaaon and Frisch had not earned negotiations beyond Dizzy s emphatic reiteration that he wouldn't accept less than $25,000. a a a THE huddle finally developed into a debate, with Dizzy trying to prove, against odds, that he was the whole Cardinal team. ' Yes, but we led in eight offensive departments," Frisch said. "And more Uian once that mfield of ours came in black and blue from knocking aown buliets the huters smacked at us A.ien >ou were pitcning.” Branch Rickey, vice president and general manager of tne Cardinals, angeied by Dizzy s sudden decision to oecome a holdout, refused to attend the conference. He was in an adjoining room shaving and popped in about this time with lather on his face, waving a razor. He tried to interrupt. “G wan oack in there and cut your throat,” Dizzy said, and kept the field against him limited to two bosses. mam DIZZY explained that when he phoned St. Louis from his Bradenton iFla.i home last December and agreed to terms offeree then, he thought a $15,000 advertising contract with General Foods was contingent upon his being signed to his baseball contract. "But after studying the situation over." he said, "I can't see where the General Foods contract has anything to do with whether I'm signed for baseball. That's why 1 haven't signed and won t sign for $17.590. For four :ears he has been imposed upon financially in the Cardinal "hain gang, ’ Dean said. His salary for that period, which includes one year at Houston in the Texas League and three at St. Louis approximates $2*2.500. SHOWS STEED ON SKATES By t wife and Press FERNDALE. N. Y..

The Indianapolis Flashes “A” and “B” court teams anticipate their hardest encounters of the season when they tangle with the Anderson Aces squads at the local Pennsy gym tonight. Billy Wilhelm, star forward on the Flashes “B” quintet, is the smallest member of the team, but his speedy floor w'ork and accuracy from the field have earned him a res, dar position on one of the most aggressive “B” squads ever to represent the Flashes. Eliminated in the semi-finals round of the state junior tourney last year by the Flashes “A,” the Anderson varsity will bj thirsting for revenge. Both squads are composed of former high school stars.

OFF wnMBMHihS by paul BOXLLL—mmmmmmmmm

THE 4500 odd fans who jammed the Anderson net wigwam Saturday night were given a run for their money. Anderson’s Indians provided considerable of the running in the first half; Jeffersonville’s Red Devils seared the hardwood in the final segment. In other and more concrete words, Hunk Francis geared his Red Devils to the regular get-set-and-take-your-time style of offense in che first half, and, seeing that the Indians were going to wind up too strong for that, unchained his Demons to their customary blinding-break speed in the rest of the scuffle. And with Mr. Archie Chadd's capable Indians plugging away at rugged, obstinate, hang-on ball, even the speed came near to failing thro.„ a.

The final score, which was 32 to 30, is an accurate gauge of the comparative ability of the two teams as evinced in that tussle. The Indians were plenty goou, but. 4 He Demoi s were just two points faster. After Myrtle, the Anderson goodfortune duck, had come forth to make her customary curtsey, the Chaddmen raced off to a 10 to ? icad in the first quarter. nut even then the 1200 Jeffersonville itinermts failed to become alarmed and the home-town throng failed to become exultant, and you could see that the whole crowd was hep to the fact that the Red Devils are no ordinary team. So it wasn’t an intense shock when the Francismen wound up in the van of a 20 to 17 figure when the half ended. B B It The Satans were bounding along on ? six-point lead with but three short minutes to go. But everything was tense. The Indians had been coming back with brilliant rallies throughout the skirmish and they kept right in form by slicing that gap to 32-30 at the half-a-minute post. Lambert, sub guard, got off a high arched shot from the center of the auditorium that was rushing along in mid-air when the gun sounded. The ball smacked the goal brace and caromed back into Lambert's hands—but he didn’t want it—the undefeated Red Devils were walking off the floor with their eighteenth straight victory. B B B A few rebounds of the week-end reveal that . . . the two outstanding upsets of Friday night were Martinsville’s 23-to-18 triumph over Bedford and Columbus’ 37-to-31 verdict over Bloomington. ... It was the fourth victory of the season for the Bulldogs. Your seer miscalculated only four of 20 prophesies this weekend, thus fattening his batting average quite a little. Included in his I-told-you so’s are Newcastle’s topper over Anderson, and the repulsion oi Frankfort by Muncie’s Bearcats . . . Chic Yarbrough, Frankfort’s gift to the gab industry, again informed the Hot Dog commonwealth that the game was

ing a comeback after breaking a leg in spring training last season. Among the others who will be coming back from the ranks of the incapacitated are Luke Sewell, one of the Senators’ casualties last year, now ready to catch for the White Sox; Johnny Stone who suffered a broken ankle while on duty with the Senators in 1934; Joe Kuhel, Senators’ first sacker, who broke a leg and put Washington in a bad way; Bill Dickey, Yanks’ catcher, who broke his hand, and Dixie Walker, another Yankee cripple who sat on the bench with an injured shoulder most of the 1934 season.

practically sewed up since Backboard lined up with the opposition . . which is twice in one week that the Foul-Liner has had to eat his words . . . and I’d suggest you flavor ’em with a grain of salt next time, Chic. . , . The Hot Dogs were shackled to two points in the first half. . . . Churning along with Jeffersonville in the major undefeated boat are Michigan City and Pittsboro. .. . The seas appear quiet enough for all three to stay with the craft the duration of the season trip. . . . Pittsboro’s galloping Burros marked up their 20th (20—count ’em) victory when they thumped Roachdale Saturday. . . . The Michigan City Red Devils point to 13 straight. . . . Noblesville’s Menacing Millers, though defeated, outshine Michigan City. . . . Maurice Kennedy’s fast-steppers have garnered 19 consecutive honors after dropping their opener to Martinsville. . . . Tipton went through the Mill Friday night. B B A Franklin Fan voices the opinion that coaches make poor referees because they show partiality, and again asks Backboard if any player in the state has averaged 13 points per game as has Gene Anderson, the Grizzly Cub center. It being next to impossible to keep tab on every individual pastimer in the state, Backboard can’t answer the query to much satisfaction. It appears both Thompson and Johnson of Jeffersonville have averaged at least 13 per, and probably more. B B B Yeah, Under the Bulldogs. Dear Backboard—Bloomington loses games to its weaker opponents. BUT, when the Panthers are rated as underdogs in a game, they always win. And this was written before the Columbus Bulldogs conquered ’em. Bloomington will travel to Newcastle soon, and it’s a cinch you’ll pick the latter to win. But you'll be mistaken. Backboard! ’Cause we’ll be playing as underdogs!' Just a friendly tip. Beware of Bloomington as an underdog and watch that Newcastle game. Yours for many correct guesses, Bobbie of Bloomington. B B B TNDIANAPOLIS high schools stepped out in high style over the week-end, bringing home the bacon in eight of 12 cagefests. Now if the Continentals can bring home some toasting bread from Millertown next Friday and take some coffee away from Peru Saturday, we’ll have a royal triumphal breakfast next Monday. Included in the victim list of local crushers are Crawfordsville, Franklin, Rushville, Greenfield and Brownsburg. Shortridge and Washington made double killings. Tech and Shortridge both were engaged in thrillers Saturday night. The booming Tech Cannons tripped Franklin on Meier's long field goal in the last minute. The crowd at the East Side goalry was perceptibly larger than usual which indicates that, with the Green Cannons taking three straight, the Techltes are beginning to warm to the cause again. Jack Dawson was Shortridge’s hero at Rushville. His accurate sniping knotted the game and pulled the Blue Devils out on top in a pail* of oVertixnes.

Athletics May Come to Life $ Rogers Hornsby says the Athletics may become the surprise array in the American League, with Connie Mack’s chances hinging on Alex Hooks filling in acceptably for Foxx at first base, who will catch. And, of course, better pitching, salts Rogers.
