By Eddie Ash TENTH YEAR IN MAJORS AT 26 • mm MEL OTT IS YOUNGEST VETERAN

M ANY ball players don’t reach the big leagues until well A along in the twenties and the record of Outfielder Mel Ott of the New York Giants is so unusual that it will go down in history. Mel recently accepted terms for 1935 and it is his tenth contract with the club. He won’t be 26 years old until March 2. He is the youngest veteran in the majors and he never played ieague ball axcept in the National. Big league life began in 1026 at 17 for the Louisiana slugger and he has been going strong since the late John McGraw picked him up with very little fxpense except tram fare from the south to the Polo Grounds. Ott hit .326 last season and tH'd with Jimmy Collins of the Cardinals tor the home run championship of the National with 35. Moreover, Mel topped the circuit in runs batted in with 135. It's true that Ott went into a late-season slump when the Giants collapsed. but on ’he whole his record was among the best in the loop. Once in his career he belted three homers in one game and on another occasion “ran the scale'' of base hits by collecting a single, double, triple and home run in four times at bat. New York signed Ott in 1925, but he was not used that year McGraw let the lad Sit around and pick up pointers before placing him on the playing roster.

OFF THFMtKIOAHII ■BY PAUL BOXELL—m—tt—^Mmm

DECEMBER ana January are gone, February is well under way and March soon will be here. I hope it didn’t startle you to learn all that in one sentence. But the hidden thought behind the whole involved statement is that the sectional tourney is rounding into sight, and coaches of the seeded teams are beginning to cast anxious eyes about the neighborhood to see if any of those mischevious boys from down the street are getting tough enough to “cross the tracks” this time. So Backboard is starting a campaign to tip off those tense mentors to all the dark horses in their vicinity. If you’ve heard rumors of a dark horse being groomed nearby in a wayside stable, pass along the word to Backboard—the coach won’t believe him either.

tt tt tt Madison county, up where dark horses grow, is teeming with ’em again this semester. One of the least noticed yet potentially menacing quintets is quartered up there about 10 miles from Alexandria in a quiet little town called Summitville. “The Goblins.” they tag 'em, and they have a six-foot-four-inch pivotter by name of Don Slain who pours leather through the hoop with the regularity of a spaghetti iadler in the Case Italiene. Summitville smothered Frankton last week, 40 to 17, and Slain accounted for 22 points. Coach Johnsons Goblins are quietly plugging along with 10 victories under their catsupfed belts. Elwood. recent conqueror of Tipton, and St. Mary’s of Anderson, recent conquerors of Southport, have felt the sting. Dedicated to Little Orphan Anderson : And the Goblins will get ’cha If ’n you don’t watch out! tt tt tt In the same sectional will be Lapel. But the Bulldogs have taken to the skids of late, and may still be lacking their early season punch at sectional time. tt tt u Teams to watch from now on in Frankfort lias its Scircleville, Muncie has its Yorktown, Newcastle has its Cadiz, Crawfordsville has its Montgomery, Noblesville has its Atlanta, and Shelbyville has its Hope. Flora, which plays in the Delphi sectional, trounced the Oracles last week, and Dugger, which starts on the last mile at Sullivan, knocked off Sullivan last week u *t tt AND they do intimate that there are three or four teams on the outskirts of Indianapolis who feel perfectly capable of wading through anything the Capital City has to offer. In fact, the deed's done. Dear backboard: with h games under their belts and only four tossed away, the Continentals are on their way. Watch them when they meander to Millertown this week-end. Don’t forget the last game on the Shortridge schedule. Also look at Cathedral s bookings for next week. Better shine up that pet nickel. G. WASHINGTON WIMPY. it tt tt WILL SOME ONE SUGGEST AN EPITAPH? Dear Backboard—l am a disappointed and broken tan. My predictions, punk, my hardwood house of hopes in ruins my Judicious judgment jarred and mr selections shvaned, I ruefully retire. Tours as a Redskin Rooter bites the dust. RED AND REPENTANT. p s.— Against my better judgment I yield to the fact that “hope springs eternal” in this chump’s breast as I choose Manual to surprise themselces and drop Decatur Central and gently munch Masonic Home. tt St St quenched enthusiasm THE Noblesville goalhouse being too small to accommodate the crowd, a group of zealous enthusiasts climbed to the roof and took up points of 'vigil around the huge skylight to watch the Nobles-ville-Tipton fracas. But along came the fire department to wash ’em down with a stream from a twoinch hose. tt tt a Byron Hamm, who sparkled so brilliantly against Shortridge here Friday night, was playing his first game with the Crawfordsville varsity. Look. Mack —start a whole new outfit the next time you come over and the local club won’t stand a chance. tt a tt Martinsville went through the month of January without a single victory, but along came

February and down went Bedford. What’s more, three of Glen Curtis’ regulars were out of the lineup Friday. You can have the regulars, Glen, I’ll take the subs. If you think the Stonecutters were taken aback, take a look at what the Artesian City Reporter says: “The game was a complete surprise to the Martinsvillp fans who had gone to the gymnasium largely from a sense of duty.” Moral: Never avoid a duty. tt tt tt EIGHT teams have accepted invitations to compete in the State Catholic High School Basketball Tournament to ’be staged at the Central High School gym in Ft. Wayne Feb. 23 and 24. The title-seekers this year are Central Catholic of Ft.
