MARION. Ind., Feb. 20— It was "Hooker Night" in Marion last nigb" The home townsfolk. Newcastle patriots, r.earby townsmen, teams * nri coach*-* ammed the big Memorial Coliseum to capacity, which totals somewhere above 6000, to see Mr. Hooker's Giants match goals with Mr. Allen s Trojans.

The Newcastle team honored Hooker in the first half: his Giants presented their compliments in the second half. The affair wound up with Newcastle on top. 26 to 19. but that score screens an interesting story. With Coach Strings Allen punishing his gum more vigorously tlian ever and his Trojans showing marked accuracy on pot-shots In close, Newcastle ran up 22 points in the first half while the Giants were lucky to get four! The Giants didn’t snatch a point in the second quarter. They had shots aplenty, but their firing eyes were weak and their attempts listless. Meanwhile the Trojans were canning exactly nine of 23 attempts, which is fancy gunmanship in any loop—including Chicago's. With Conrads discovering that a game was In progress, the Giants came back in the second half to rally 15 markers while holding the Trojans to four. Strings reached a displacement of at least 10 feet per wad on his gum as the Hookermen closed the gap by five points in the third period while the Trojans, beginning to lose sight of the hoop, remained at 22. Thomas and Conrad pegged away desperately, Yeager took on a little pep, Orv Hooker fanned his brow and the crowd yowled as the Giants piled in 10 more markers in the last stand. But the Trojans could have gone scoreless again and still have downed their maestro of yore. As It was, Marv Huffman and Long John Wiles widened the margin with a pair of fielders. Coaches galore were on hand, but there was no “finessing,” folks. Hooker and Allen, master and pupil, were dead anxious to win that game. They showed it and the boys—especially the Trojans—revealed it. SPORTS writers’ paradise— Marion . . . Jim Sloan of the Marion Chronicle is the hustlingest host ever . . .

CY PROFFITT, above, former all-state netter from Butler, will be in the starting lineup of the Hilgemeier Packers, who meet the Renaissance team of New York at the Butler Fieldhouse tonight. Profflt has been out of the Packer lineup for the last ten days, due to a throat operation, and his return to the locals’ lineup is expected to bolster the team’s chances of a victory over the Negro champions.

There were those who went away staunchly convinced that the Trudgers are headed straight for Mr. Ihsaa's precious throne. ... An innovation as far as this writer has noticed was introduced when a couple of teams of pretty fair players from Newcastle swarmed on the floor all togged out in dresses, feminine hats, stockings and a few even sported balloon bloomers. . . .

Perry Drops Hint He Soon May Turn Pro Remark Tends to Back Up Boast Made by O'Brien to The Times. By Unit'd Press HONOLULU, T. H., Feb. 20.—Fred Perry, world’s amateur tennis champion, left a very definite impression among Honolulu friends today that he is considering seriously an offer to become a professional. Perry stopped here en route to Los Angeles. “If any one can show me how to get SIOO,OOO and still remain an amateur I will remain an amateur,” the No. 1 man of the simon pure tennis world was quoted as saying. "Otherwise I'll have to accept some means of raising money against old age.” Perry has been approached by Bill O’Brien, promoter of Tilden Tours, Inc., who insists that when Perry lands in Los Angeles he will announce his affiliation with the pros. Bill O'Brien, millionaire tennis promoter from New York, told The Times during an exclusive interview while here with the Tilden troupe recently, that he was certain he could sign Perry to a contract when they meet. “We are to meet on the West Coast late in February and I do not think there is any doubt but what I can sign Perry up,” Mr. O'Brien said confidently and in a matter of fact tone. “We will need him in the new pro league.” The statement was made after Mr. O’Brien had given The Times his views on the professional tennis league which will begin play in several large cities during the summer of next year.
