By Eddie Ash BIG MONEY WAGERED IN SOUTH u tt m AND IT’S ON SUGAR BOWL TILT

r |'HE Sugar Bowl football classic at New Orleans New Year’s Day, between Louisiana State University and . Texas Christian University, threatens to rival the Kentucky Derby as a gambling vehicle, and if the wagering continues to mount one half of the population down there is going to be rolling in “sugar” and the other half is going to be sunk. Reports indicate approximately a million is “up” on the contest and it is the opinion of observers that another million will be at stake by the time Headache Day arrives. Persons in close touch with the gambling situation say the L. S. U. vs. T. C. U. clash will surpass the Rose Bowl feature in the “moneymarket.” The opponents have similar records—only one defeat during the regular season—and both have been well-backed in all games. The late Huey Long was instrumental in steering some brilliant talent to Louisiana State and this material is reported at its peak. On the other hand, T. C. U. is determined to regain at least part of the prestige it lost when it was nosed out of a trip to the Rose Bowl by Southern Methodist. At any rate, New Orleans is more or less of a big gambling town and even the horse players have “gone football.” The New Year’s grid tussle offers a wide range of “speculation.”

NORTHERN race track clerks who drifted down to Florida to dodge, cold weather and pick up a winter living while basking in the sunshine learned that Florida hospitality doesn't extend to unemployed outsiders. The Florida State Racing Commission ruled that 85 per cent of employes at race courses must be bona fide residents. This doesn’t apply, though, to outsiders who bet on the races. tt tt tt Temple University has caught to the proper way to fashion a basketball team ala Hoosier. The Owls have succeeded in finding a center standing six feet eight and a half inrhes. His name is Bob Chapman. it tt tt A MIXED bout involving the heavyweight fistic title may not be permitted in New York, and if this situation develops James J. Braddock, champion, and Joe Louis, No. 1 challenger, may have to shop around for anew site in the event they are matched for a title go next September. It is said Gov. Lehman still is glaring at his boxing commission for sanctioning the butchery of a washed-up Paulino Uzcudun by the Detroit pulverizer. a a tt IT’S A good thing the third man in the ring has some authority, otherwise the coroner would be the big shot at the ringside when Joe Louis belts out his opponents. By his intervention in stopping the brawls, the referee has permitted the following heavyweights to escape the obituary column: Paulino, Baer, Camera, Levinsky, Birkie, Ramage and other lesser lights. Os the number, the ten-count was tolled over Baer, but he was on one knee at the time waiting it out. The others were dragged out before the kill. a a tt FOOTBALL banquets this year have produced the usual crop of cracks and new grid definitions. A few are: “A coach is a man who does his talking on Saturday afternoons and to himself.” “The object of the game is to get as crazy as you can and still be sane.” “The team that throws the best 60-minute fit wins.”

WHOOP m HITS OF LEADING COACHES F,Y HAROLD OLSEN Cotch, Ohio State University The accompanying diagram illustrates a play we use at Ohio State that rather confuses the defense under the basket and generally puts an offensive man in good position for a shot. i\3 *O C 1 The play starts as No. 4 dribbles, then pivots and passes to No. 5. The latter tosses to No. 2, coming out to meet the pass. No. 2 then gives the ball back to No. 5 on a quick exchange and No. 5 goes in for the shot. No. 1 pulls out to his side of the court, ready to go in for a rebound, and No. 3 plays safe defensevly. (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.)

Jock McAvoy Hailed as Next Light-Heavy Champ Battering Briton Uncorks Dynamite Punch to Stop Risko in One Round: Lewis Believed Outclassed. Bp United Press NEW YORK, Dec. 21.—The greatest English fighter since the days of Freddie Welsh and a cinch to win the light-heavyweight crown when i he gets a crack at Champion John Henry Lewis. That’s what cauliflower alley had to say today about Joseph Bam- I ford McAvoy of Burnley, Lancashire—known to the fistic trade as “Jock.”

McAvoy, fighting since he was 16 years old, came to these shores last month unheralded as a fighter and believed by most boxing experts to be another typical English battler, one along the lines of “horizontal” Phil Scott. In his first scrap McAvoy was fairly impressive as he pounded out a 10-round decision over A1 McCoy of Boston, who entered the ring a 4-to-l favorite. Last night, however, anew McAvoy was produced—a man who 1 floored Middleweight Champion Eddie (Babe) Risko of Syracuse six 1 times and then smashed him down I for 10 with a short hard right to the chin, all in one round. Thus the man who holds both the middleweight and light-heavyweight championships of Great Britain clinched a title bout with Lewis, probably in January or February. In those two fights McAvoy showed he has more than enough guns to whip Lewis—a punch, firstclass boxing and the ability to take it. His punch was put on display in America for the first time last night in Madison Square Garden in a non-title scrap. However, if he

Bulldog Defense Is Geared High to Cope With Purdue’s Fast Break Here Tonight

Butler Gunning for Second Victory, While Invaders Seek No. 4. When the Purdue Boilermakers take to the hardwood at Butler fieldhouse tonight at 8:15 they are to be met by a Bulldog squad that is reported to have gained more than determination in drills this week. For the last few afternoons the Bulldogs have been working strenuously to build a stronger defense, and Coach Tony Hinkle has been encouraging them to “pepper away” on long shots, recalling that their percentage has been none too high for the first three games. Cosgrove May Start The reserves have been showing up well against the varsity, and Coach Hinkle has made several changes in his first team, hoping to find a combination that will click. Ralph Cosgrove, an Indianapolis boy, seems to have the inside track, and probably will start tonight along with Armstrong, Brafford, Jones and Batts. Cosgrove has displayed good form on defense, and that is what Coach Hinkle is looking for. Seward Gives Purdue Heighth Mcst of the defensive practice has been based on the goal of stopping Purdue’s speed plays. The Boilermakers’ only tall man is Jim Seward, formerly a Shortridge star. The rest of the upstate boys are average size. The Lambertmen will be gunning for their fourth victory tonight. If the Bulldogs, who list two losses and one triumph, upset the invading quintet, things will “brighten up” around the Hinkle camp before the boys leave for Christmas vacation. Hinkle has hinted that the players may have a longer vacation if the game is won. Gophers Upset by Nebraska Quintet Other Big Ten Teams Whip 'Prelim’ Opponents. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 21.—University of Minnesota’s basketball team suffered its second straight preliminary game defeat last night when it received a 41-to-24 trouncing from the University of Nebraska. Nebraska scored 17 free throws. Illinois, which finished in a triple tie for the Big Ten championship last year, had to rally in the second half to nose out tough little Da Paul, 26 to 24, which led, 10 to 8 at the half. Michigan’s tall, rangy quintet overawed Mt. Union and scored an easy 40-to-22 victory. Seven Big Ten conference teams will see action tonight. Indiana will play Vanderbilt at Nashville, Tenn.; lowa meets Western State; Purdue plays Butler; Armour tackles Chicago; Michigan State plays at Northwestern; Wisconsin will meet its old rivals, Marquette; and Michigan will play its second time in as many nights when it tangles with Western Reserve. Shapiro Captures Fifth Cue Victory Larry Still Undefeated in State Tourney. Larry Shapiro led the pack in the state three-cusnion billiard tourney today with five consecutive victories. Harry Rubens, who has won four games in as many starts, is now the only other undefeated contestant. Frank Dougherty was Shapiro’s last victim. He was handed a 50-tc-30 defe/it in an 80-inning match in Cooler’s parlor last night. Although Dougherty captured high run honors with a cluster of seven, he did not play a consistent game. He made difficult shots, only to miss seemingly easy leaves. Shapiro's best run was four, but he scored every other inning.

wins the light-heavyweight crown, McAvoy may take off some weight and go after Risko’s title next spring. McAvoy’s first blow of the battle, a stiff right, sent Risko to the floor for the count of one—the second time Eddie had been floored in his long career. Five more times the battering Briton swarmed over his man and crashed him to the deck | for counts ranging from five to j ! eight. The last time Risko rose he was ! groggy and bounced off the ropes i into the middle of the ring, where J a short right put him down for the : final count—2 minutes 48 seconds after the scrap began. It was the first time Risko had been counted out. It was fortunate for Risko that he | had refused to make the encounter a title affair—as McAvoy desired. Because of Risko’s refusal, it was an over-the-weight match, with McAvoy, at 1684, enjoying a distinct pull over Risko’s 161 Risko larded only one solid blow—a wild left hook to McAvoy’s jaw after the champion had rise® from the second knockdown.

A LL keyed up and ready to go are the three Butler basketball regulars pictured here, who tangle with Pur■L due’s Boilermakers tonight at the fieldhouse. They are, Scott Armstrong, at left, playing as pivot man this season after starring at forward last year; Earl Gerkensmeyer, in center, the lone “rookie” on the starting five, and Roscoe Batts, who has taken care of a major part of the Bulldogs’ scoring to date, averaging 13 points each game.

Dad Hanna’s 669, John Blue’s 635 and Jimmie Hurt’s 603 enabled the losers to post a 3046 from 954, 1103 and 989. J. E. Kernel Opticals, led by Eddie Boerger's 626, posted a 2936 that gained them a triple win over Board of Trade.

The observer leans to the belief that the husky Continental guard was merely in customary good form zast night and is destined to be an outstanding city prep pastimer this season. Herschel did not appear to be hitting with blind luck, but playing a consistently capable, if not flawless, game as he contributed nearly half of the winners’ total points. He netted five field goals and four fouls for 14 markers. His goals showed versatility, coming from far out on the court as well as under-basket pivots; he was invariably the "go-getter” for the Continentals when it came to taking the ball off Ripple's backboard; ha was the cornerstone of the Washington defense. Reese Out cn Fouls The Ripplemen were doing all right by themselves, keeping within close striking distance, until their junior-sized spark plug, Frank Reese, was forced to the bench by personal fouls in the third quarter. The Rockets, who were trailing, 17 to 22. when Frankie walked off, bogged down like a '27 model T in a snowstorm and fell behind, 20 to 31, before Combs and McQueen dug out and scored seven points in the last two minutes. A high-scoring duel was in prospect as the game opened when Kasnak and Shoemaker connected on Washington’s first two attempts and Reese followed up with a fancy long shot for Ripple. A free throw and field goal by McQueen put Ripple ahead, 5 to 4. Foxworthy and Combs added four more, and the scoreboard favored the North Siders at the quarter, 9 to 5. Continentals Shove Ahead The boys settled down to baskets, ala percentage in the second period and it was some time before a brilliant follow-in by Sartor tied the score at 11-all. Lasley, Shoemaker and Kasnak connected in quick succession, giving the Continentals a lead which stood at 18-to-15 at the half, and continued unchallenged throughout the rest of the fray. Coach Frank Baird's Ripple boys seem to have gamed the knack of working down under the basket as well as the best of them do, but once there they have difficulty finding the hoop, or did last night. And when they missed, it was all off—Mr. Sartor was right there to snatch up the ball and start it on its way up the court. The victory was the third of the season for the Continentals against one setback. In figures: Broad Ripple (27). Washington (321.

Tiger Cubs Show Speed A fast Greencastle High School basketball squad, paced by a sharpshooting guard named Richard Clenaening, handed the Cathedral quintet a 27-to-17 defeat last night at the Irish gym. After taking an early lead, the visitors steadily increased the margin until they were ahead, 16 to 4, at intermission. The Irish were outclassed during the first half, but they came back to hold the Tiger Cubs on even terms in the last stanza. The damage had been done, however, and the locals coludn’t score enough to threaten the Greencastle boys. Bernie Broderick, with eight points, was outstanding for Cathedral.
