By Eddie Ash THREE RINGS AT GOLDEN GLOVES m m m LOCAL CHAMPIONS WILL BE THEBE

Monday night in Chicago the stupendous and colossal Tournament of Uolden Gloves Champions will get under way in the Chicago Stadium. Forty teams of sectional title holders will compete and three rings will l>e used on the first night, all going at the same time. In other words it will 1e a fistic circus, take your pick of rings or try to watch em all if you think your neck will stand the strain. The* Chicago Tribune will Ik? in charge. Thr- Indianapolis Times-Legion Golden Gloves champs, crowned here las* fnday before an overflow crowd, will be on hand for the classic in the Windy City. The local lads will be as well dressed for the occasion a- the boys from the other districts. They will wear flashy robes and hanc omc su'-d" jackets into the ring and when they strip for hostilities they will be revealed togged out in satin trunks. Moreover, the Indianapolis punch tossers will be quartered at a leading hotel and will be taken all over Chicago to give the up and down to the largest city in the Middle West. And they will ride the train cushions to and from the Illinois metropolis.

Benjamin Harrison. u a a Collegiate Billiards CHARLIE Peterson of St. Louis. one of the most popular cue wizards in the game, was to give the college boys an eyeful of trick and fancy shots at Purdue University today. He was at Indiana U. Saturday and at Culver Military’ Academv last Friday. “Pete” is an authority as well as a "shark” in the green cloth sport and he makes his lectures and exhibitions interesting. He has that old showmanship along with skill. Culver. Indiana and Purdue are only three of 50 higher institutions of learning that Peterson will visit on his tour for the express purpose of starting the students correctly in the fundamentals of billterds. He will visit Notre Dame later. The first intercollegiate billiard tournament was inaugurated in 1931, the University of Wisconsin emerging victor. Michigan State won the title last season. This year’s toumatitle last season. There are no billiard authorities who have a broader knowledge of the game than Peterson and he stands alone in his repertory of fancy shots. He can literally make the ivories do football, basketball and other sport formations. BBS Cagey Pete Vaughan PETE Vaughan, ibe Wabash College coach, usually has one startling upset up his sleeve for each sports season. Last fall it was the football victory over Wabash's ancient rival. De Pauw. and this basketball season it was Saturday night’s cage triumph over Butler on the Bulldogs' own floor. Old Pete has a lot of patience and makes a practice of bringing his teams along building them up week by week until they catch somebody unawares. The Saturday game here drew a fine crowd to the fieldhouse and reminded the old-timers of the Wabash-Butler clashes of 10 to 12 years ago. Some of the battles between the secondary schools in this state often produce more fireworks than the “big” teams and are well worth the support of the basketball public. All roads will lead to the fieldhouse Saturday night coming up. The Irish of Notre Dame will make their annual visit and indications point to a whale of a game. N. D. won. 30 to 29, when Butler invaded the Irish stronghold earlier in the season. Bulldog authorities will be fixed to handle the record crowd of the current campaign. PRIMOJMPELLETTIERE TO BATTLE MARCH 15 B* l mitid Press NEW YORK.

Louis Soresi. who shares Camera's contract with Bill Duffy, cabled from Nassau. Bahamas, agreeing to terms yesterday, but demanded the later date to give Camera more time to get in condition.

Purdue will be seeking to retain the first-place ranking it attained Saturday night by defeating Illinois, while Indiana lost to Wisconsin, she Hoosiers will be trying to regain their lost laurels, and to make the battle for pre-eminence doubly interesting, Wisconsin will be playing Minnesota up in Minneapolis with better than a fair chance of emerging from the night’s play in the van by itself.

sively. It’s not time yet to worry about Master Case. Looking at the Greencastle game, the sectional tourney looms as the big hazard.” a tt a IT’S a pleasant rarity to hear from fans outside the boundaries of the state who are following Hoosier basketball as intently as if they were in the thick of it. The Times carries the heat of the current season right across the country to California, it seems, for here’s a letter on Backboard’s desk post-marked Los Angeles. Here is how it looks from the Los Angeles angle: Dear Backboard —Just a line to let you know that you have a few followers outside the city limits! By the way, don’t forget that Martinsville is still in Indiana and unless I miss my guess, the Artesians (my Alma Mater) will be right with the rest of the parade to the finish. I agree that Jeffersonville is plenty tough. Frankfort and Logansport finish my big four. Hoping for a front row seat in the Fieldhouse during the state tourney— as ever, TOM SAWYER, Los Angeles. b n u Backboard crossed his fingers and tossed out 15 predictions last Friday and missed two—l3 right. The two dope crossups were Crawfordsville beating Franklin and Central of South Bend nosing out LaPorte. 808 Which jolts three facts into Backboard’s befuddled bee bonnet: First —Don’t take chances on those Northern Nomads. . . . They’re more unstable than Richmond and Frankfort ever dared to be. . . . Let Ben Tenney and the boys up that way worry about La Porte. Second—Backboard, you’ve got no backbone. . . . stick like a miser to your dope-sheet—won t take a chance. . . . that’s got to stop. . . . You revealed before the game Friday that you had a “strong inclination” that Crawfordsville was going to upset Franklin. . . . That was “inclination,” mind you, which is much more impressive than “hunch." Yet you allowed your dope-sheet to sway you to the Grizzly Cubs. . . . There’s no excuse for passing up an inclination that way. Third—Coach McCullough is bringing the Athenians out of the fog as tourney time nears, and their obituary is far from written as yet. . . . Greencastle. in case you overlooked it as Backboard did, fell victim to the Atheians last mid-week. Bob Stafford was the C’ville hero as his team topped Coach Marion Crawley’s Cubs. 29-27. Live and learn. B B B Circle City teams showed to a .500 per cent advantage over the week-end, winning four of eight conflicts. Shortridge won two, ■Washington topped Cathedral, Manual broke even —one and one —Tech dropped a close one to Shelbyville and Broad Ripple went for a double dip. 1 Orchuis for the best performance of the two-day session go to Shortridge's Blue Devils. They asserted themselves abroad at Bloomington and kept the home fires burning with Alexandria’s hapless Tigers as fuel. The Alexandria score, which was 28 to 21. should have been larger. The Blue Devils are, of course, capable of better ball than they displayed against the Tigers.

Butler Prepares to Meet N. D. Here After Dropping Important Tilt to Wabash Little Giants Score 28-22 Victory to Keep Bulldogs From Clinching State Title: Batts, Leading Scorer for Conference Leaders, Is Injured. BY WAYNE FOX The Butler University basketball team, prevented from clinching the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference basketball title here Saturday night by Wabash, today faced its two most important tiits of the season witli its leading scorer, Roscoe Batts, on the hospital list. Batts stretched a ligament in the week-end tussle at the field house, which was taken by Wabash, 28 to 22.

Notre Dame will come to Indianapolis Saturday night to play a return encounter with the Bulldogs. A tilt between the two teams here last year drew upwards of 9000 fans. The Irish defeated Butler by a narrow margin at South Bend earlier this season. The Butler team will finish its season by meeting Indiana State, a strong conference rival, at Terre Haute next week. If Butler loses, Wabash can take the state title by winning its three remaining conference engagements. Butler has won eight conference games and lost one, while Wabash has seven victories and two defeats. Indiana State forced the Bulldogs to score at e rapid pace in a game here recently before going down to defeat. Faulty Watch Costs N. D. A defective watch was blamed by Notre Dame for a 27-to-25 defeat at the hands of Pittsburgh in a weekend tilt at fckiuth Bend. The waten stopped after twelve and a half minutes of play in the second half and timekeepers failed to notice the fact for approximately 10 minutes. The time piece was started again with seven and a half minutes official time remaining to play. Emerick of Pitt scored three consecutive field goals to nose out the Irish as the game ran past regulation length. Wabash took an early lead in the encounter with the Bulldogs and led throughout. The score at the half was 14 to 7. Batts was injured shortly before the intermission, then re-entered the play as the second period started. He was knocked to the floor in a skirmish under the basket and limped away to the showers. The Bulldogs closed "the gap to four points at one time shortly before the game ended with the first flash they had shown of their regular form. Long shots by Heath and Rovenstine featured the visitors’ attack. Four l’eams to End Play In another local tilt, Indiana Central downed Hanover, for the second time this season, 50 to 39. Central’s reserves played most of the game. In other Saturday night games involving state secondary college teams, Earl'nam defeated De Pauw. 34 to 21, to atone for an earlier defeat; Evansville downed Valparaiso, 34 to 25; Manchester lost to Western State, 4o to 26; Taylor won over Concordia oi Ft. Wayne, 35 to 25, and St. Joseph’s was beaten by Joliet (111.) College, 47 to 31. Four state college teams will play their final games of the season during this week’s schedule, which includes 18 contests. The teams are Indiana Central, holder of second place in ine state college conference; Manchester, Kokomo Coilege and Anderson College. Eleven other Hoosier college quintets will conclude their cards next weeks. Books Pro Boxers at Armory Friday The Hercules A. C. will offer its fourth “California style” boxing show of the season next Friday night at the Armory where eight scraps of four rounds each will be staged. The profesisonal glove throwers took a long lay-off while the National Guard Armory was being used for other ventures, including the Times-Legion Golden Gloves amateur shows.
