By Eddie Ash FIRST SACKERS POSSESS POWER n n n ARTILLERY BOYS OF THE MAJORS

\yHEN action opens up on the baseball firing line in the spring the attention of many fans is going to be centered on the first basemen in the majors. There is an abundance of class at the position and the bombardment of the fences is expected to be “terrific.” Much is expected out of Jimmy Foxx new that he has changed scenery accompanied by a salary boost of $7500, bringing his 1936 earnings to $25,000. He has set his goal on beating Babe Ruth’s home run record of 60. That’s a large order, but Jimmy collected 58 one year. Then there is Hank Greenberg of the Tigers, a first rate sluggers who powders the horsehide consistently. He is a distance walloper who can guarantee another great season. Sill Terry, manager of the New York Giants, will be back in there with that .341 batting average of 1935 to inspire him to add to his fame. Lou Gehrig, too. A little off last year, but resting well this winter to avoid an early season slump which set him back in ’35. Other barrier breakers of power are Zeke Trosky of Cleveland, Jimmy Collins of the Cardinals and other lesser lights who may break out in a rash of long drives, mentioning Dolph Camilii of the Phillies and Sam Leslie of the Dodgers. There 1s no shortage of artillery when the first sackers “tee off” with the bludgeon.

THE reason Valparaiso and Western State didn't meet in basketball last night is explained by Coach Buck. He rented the gym to high school teams, thinking the Valpo date was tonight. Coach Christianson of the Uhlans “saved” the Teachers’ mentor by agreeing to play Monday. tt tt tt JABBY JABLONOWSKI, under the name of Peter Appleton, is coming back to the big leagues with Washington. He won 23 games against only nine defeats with Montreal last year. Jabby used to pitch in the American Association. Kenny Ash won 18 and lost 11 for Buffalo. He couldn't get the side out in the A. A. tt tt tt An Eastern professor suggests the elimination of not only paid football coaches and gate receipts but also cheer leaders. College football without cheer leaders would leave the student rooters helpless. tt tt tt ALL fight bugs are theorizing on what type of boxer it will take to beat Joe Louis. Perhaps a man with an iron jaw and a cement hide might stay in there. Os course, if a combination of Gene Tunney, Jack Dempsey and Harry Greb, plus two clubs, happened along it would be interesting. A sharp puncher with a punch and a bombproof defense may be the answer. That combination bothered Dempsey. tt tt n Augie Galan, Chicago Cubs’ outfielder, went through the complete schedule last year without hitting into a double play. He belongs in the hall of fame. u tt Charlie Retzlaff, who is doing his best to build up his courage to enter the ring with Joe Louis on Jan. 17 has been flattened three times, by Izzy Gastanaga, King Levinsky and Hank Hankinson. a tt a CALIFORNIA inter-city ( rivalry is oiled up again. San Francisco is reported scheming to “steal" the Rose Bowl New Year’s grid game. It is said the University of California and Stanford are “all ears” to the “proposition.” Northern California is jealous of the publicity southern California receives out of the classic.

Favorites in Semi-Finals of County Cage Tourney Decature Central, Ben Davis, Southport and Warren Central Move Up in Title Chase. BY PAUL BOXELL Marion County’s colorful high school basketball tourney was running true to pre-play dope as four teams squared off at the Armory this afternoon to fight it out on the semi-finals battlefield. Ben Davis, Decatur Central and Southport were moving along with powcrlul strides, accompanied by Warren Central as the fourth member of the quarreling quartet.

Ben Davis and Decatur Central’s defending champions were to clash at 1:30, renewing an old tourney feud that left off last year when the Decaturs handed the Gianis a stunning setback in the final county contest. Ben Davis still was bereft of defeat as semi-final action started. Coach Maurice Woodens Giants yesterday tacked two tourney victories on to a regular season triumph list of 11. One of the season verdicts was scored over Decatur Central by a single point. Titular Go at 8:30 Southport and Warren Central were to tangle in the second skirmish of the afternoon at 2:30. Both advanced with impressive decisions over first-round foes yesterday. The championship tussle starts tonight, at 8:30. with the winners of the two semi-final jousts gunning for top glory. Consolation games were interspersed through the titular contention throughout the day. Two tear-drying tilts were played this morning starting at 10. Another was to precede the main go to- • night at 7:30. First and second-round activities yesterday started and closed with a pair of sure-fire thrillers, while the games in the interim were lop-sided to an unusual degree. Ben Davis bumped into an unexpected scare in the opening affray when New Bethels fast-stepping little cagers, paced by Anderson, staged a determined uprising late in the third quarter, forged ahead of the Giants, 24-23. only to slip back and lose, 37 to 31, as their rivals put on a burst of steam in the late minutes. In the windup game last night, Beech Grove's Hornets bowed to Decatur Central only after making a valiant stand that appeared good for victory until the last few minutes of play. The game was the most exciting of the day, the score being tied six times. With Beech Grove leading, 25-24. and hardly a minute to go, Byers and Butler connected in quick succession for Decatur to clinch a 28-25 victqry. Moore Totals 31 Ben Davis trounced Acton in a second round go last night, 45-11, with Harry Moore, forward, adding eight points to the 23 he tallied against New Bethel. Southport’s defense-minded Cardinals breezed through a firstrounder with Castleton, winning 24 to 6. Bill Bugg's boys held the Comets to two field goals, both registered by Messersmith. Puhlman, a guard, contributed 12 point* to warren Central's 42-20

Meets Numa

I * .. ' I ’

Two “Beau Brummels” of the mat game clash in the feature wrestling offering at the Armory Tuesday night. The opponents are Jack Kennedy, pictured above, of Minneapolis, and Leo Numa of Seattle. The former weighs 215 and the latter 218. Numa, who holds victories over both George (Cry Baby) Zaharias and Orville Brown, has scored six wins without a loss at the N. Penn-sylvania-st arena. Kennedy has registered nine triumphs and has dropped but one tug, the defeat coming early last fall when he was injured. A “double-barreled” supporting program is promised with the initial appearance of Daniel Boone Savage, 250, featuring. Savage, who is heralded as a “hill-billy” from Boyd County, Kentucky, and is well equipped with whiskers, takes on the aggressive Pete Schuh, 230, Houston. The Kentuckian is six feet four inches “up.” Ernie Zeller. 230, former Indiana State Normal athlete who drew with Am Rascher here last Tuesday, tackles Rudy Strongberg, 225, Milwaukee, in the other tug. The Hercules A. C. is staging the card.

triumph over New Augusta. Beech Grove's quintet, vastly improved over last year's Hornet squad, advanced through the first round with a 37-13 decision over Oaklandon. The old rah-rah days of run-and-hit ala lightning are definitely back as far as Decatur Central is concerned. When Bob Gladden's boys get their mitts on the leather, it's a five-man race to see who can scoot under the basket first. They snap off a fancy assortment of passes, featuring long ones, the length of the floor. a tt a THE Armory hardwood is as slippery as ever, which means that it is as treacherous as ice and far more discomforting to bounce on. The players skidded and smacked the floor in such profusion yesterday that, if it had not been apparent they were taking bruisr g punishment, would have been humorous. The fall-and-sprawl play seems natural enough for the rough professional cagers, who frequent the Armory floor most, but when the high school scrappers take those nasty spills you grit your teeth and pray they will bounce off with all bones intact. Which they always manage to do. o a tt The county coaches are leaning more and more to the one-handed variety of field goal attempts. A number of single-handers yesterday were tried from mid-floor. The most speotaeular of that type during the day was fired in by Robert Fultz of New Augusta during his losing venture against Warren Central. tt a CAUGHT ON THE COUNTY COURT . . . Mutiny on the County came near a reality in the New Bethel uprising against Ben Davis . . . any coach in the state, colleges included, would be glad to get his hands on Moore of Ben Davis . . . plenty of puns are available on Moore, but they’re so obvious they are too pun-y to use ... Anderson, New Bethel’s curly-topped little forward, is nigh impossible to stop when he starts under the hoop . . Coach Kyle Peters has transferred from Castleton to Lawrence ... D. K. Beaver is directing Castleton . . county bells are prettier than ever . . . the Custer brothers, proving popular referees are being haunted by autograph seekers ... but they seem to enjoy it . . . there was so much walking in the New AugustaWarren Central game, that someone called It a “pedestriwfi’s paradise.”

CITY QUINTETS HAVE MEDIOCRE NIGHT

Popular Champs Emerge in County Mitt Event After Four-Hour Slugging Seige Hardy Title Winners Survive 24 Bouts at Turners’ Hall; Several Defend Crowns; De Borde Finds Strong Material for Golden Gloves. Aspiring young leather-pushers and would-be Dempseys deserved the relaxation they were taking today after walloping their way to glory and local recognition in the county amateur boxing championships, staged last night before nearly 1000 fight fans in the South Side Turners arena.

Twenty-four three-round matches afforded more than four solid hours of unadulterated scrapping, with a spirit of attack seldom displayed by pros. There was not as much fanning of air as might have been expected, and what the plebe mittmen lacked in style they made up with fight. Several of last year’s crown wearers returned to successfully defend their titles. Johnny Chesunas. shovel-handed Fort Harrison middleweight, successfully fended off the rivet-hammer attack of Johnny Denson, Oliver A. C. fistman, with a tw r o-round lead decision. Bud Cottey climbed from a 12-month bantam championship to a featherweight victory over Wilmer Hardesty in an Oliver A. C. family feud. Tommy LeFevre, Oliver flyweight champ, underwent a surprise upset when Jimmy Williams, F & K Health Club, set his halo askew with a last-round decision. Fred de Borde. Golden Glove tournament manager seeking new talent, seemed particularly impressed by the dnyamite punches of Rudy Groschelie, 147-pound Turner, and the “alley-fightins” spirit o.t George Hoyt, Puritain Bed Spring 175-pounder. Class champions follow: 112 Pounds—Jimmy Williams, F. & K. Health Club. 118 Pounds—Omar Sensei, South Side Turners. 126 Pounds—Bud Cottey, Oliver A. C. 135 Pounds—Norval Binninger, Oliver A. C. 147 Pounds—Rudy Croschelle, South Side Turners. 160 Pounds—Johnny Chesunas, Fort Harrison. 175 Pounds—George Hoyt, Puritan Bed Springs. Heavyweight—Marshall Kcaling, Colonial A. C. Knockout artists were in evidence, as can be judged by the following anesthetics: 147 Pounds—James Houston, Fort Harrison, kayoed Paul Pearsey, unattached, in the first. George Lefferts, Oliver A. C., stopped Jap Powell, South Side Turners, in the third. 175 Pounds—George Hoyt, Puritan Bed Springs, flattened Leonard Campbell, Colonial A. C., in the third. Technical knockouts went to James Allison. 126, South Side Turners, over Skeet Dickerson, Colonial A. C.; Irvin Spaulding, 135, Colonial A. C., over Clarence Gardner, unattached, in the first. Boxing officials were: Judges, Edward Clemens and Edward Zimmer. Referees, Happy Atherton and Merle Alte.

Herman Morgan Is High Scorer in Pin Sessions 21-Year-Old Youth, in First Year of League Competition, Assembles 675 Total in Bankers’ Loop.

BY BERNARD HARMON DESPITE the fact that a horde of veteran pin topplers were in action in last night’s loop sessions, the most savage attack launched against the elusive maples came from the sweeping delivery of Herman Morgan Jr., a youthful pinster in his initial year of league competition. Tossing games of 222, 235 and 218 in the Bankers League gathering the 21-year-old Morgan assembled a 675 count that gained him city-wide honors over star performers of the Fountain Square, Recreation and Washington circuits. The big series earned his Indiana National Bank No. 1 aggregation a 2843 total and a triple victory over the opposing Indiana National Bank No. 3. Nick Noe, secretary of the loop, kept the losers in the limelight with a 623 total, the only other honor count of the session.

With fifty-two 200 games to work with, a dozen individuals passed the 600 mark during the evening. Topping all soloists was Bob Kelly, who with counts of 212, 219 and 234 assembled a 865, which was good for runnerup honors to Morgan’s topper. Although Charlie Mahoney joined Kelly with a 609, Hy-Red Gasoline dropped two games to the opposing Licber Brewers, who with two members over 600 totaled 2985 in their three games. Earl Goodhue’s 637, John Blue’s 629 and Chris Rasmussen’s 605 enabled the winners to turn in games of 968, 1089 and 928. The Gas aggregation won the final tilt with a 1005. J. E.

For the losers George Meeker’s 608 was ontstanding. A trio of honor shooters failed t it give Falls City Hi-B;us an edge in its clash with Bowes Seal Fast, which won two of the three games.
