By Eddie Ash ’NOTHER GAME OF THE CENTURY WHEN N. D* INVADES NEW YORK
'T'IIE basketball ballyhoo drums are sounding in New York and if advance publicity gets in its work that battle in Madison Square Garden next r?*onth between Notre Dame and N. Y. U. may become another “game of the century.” The Violets are undefeated and their backers foresee a fine claim to national supremacy. On the other hand the Irish are no pushover and have tossed a little fear into the New York camp. One defeat is on the N. D. record, tallied by Purdue, and there was one disputed contest with Northwestern. Asa team, however, the South Benders are dangerous against anybody, and the Violets know it. In Syracuse the other night the Irish Hoosiers knocked off the Orangemen and it was the first home floor setback suffered by Syracuse over a long stretch. Asa matter of fact the Orange won 35 straight struggles there, and Coach Lew Andreas says this season's squad is one of his best. Purdue was edged out by N. Y. U. in Gotham this winter in a contest that kept the Garden in an uproar. A clamor for N. D.-N. Y. U. tickets Is already under way over there and the guess is that 5000 fans will D3 turned away. The classic is scheduled on the night of Feb. 14. Jack Moir, leading point-getter for the Irish, is being played up as the player to "watch” by New York cage scouts. This helps the ballyhoo. Jack hails from Niagara Falls, N. Y
tt tt tt THE basketball scriveners will have a fertile field for pet phrases if that fast-stepping Tipton High School team continues to roll along. Tip ’Em In for Tipton, Tip Your Hat to Tipton, Tip Top Tipton are suggestions. There used to be an old prize fighter by the name of the "Tipton Slasher" and that moniker seems to fit the Tipton Blue Devils. a u tt Two-handed tennis players appear awkward in aetion, but Vivie McGrath of Australia, using a double grip, gets along okeh and is one of the ranking stars. Now another Davis Cup possibility of the same type has developed in the “Down Under” land. He is Johnny Bromwich, 18. Michigan state and west Virginia were waging a hot battle on the basket court. At the end cl regulation time the teams were tied at 20-all. The Staters got two field goals during overtime and the Mountaineers matched them. Then Eddie Bolen of Michigan, forward, tallied a free throw for one point and victory. It was his lone marker of the tussle. It made him the hero after a “nothing night.” a tt a JOE KNIGHT, of Cairo, Ga., suh, has consented to withdraw the color line and announces he is ready to fight John Henry Lewis, the Negro light-heavy champ. The South thinks a whole lot of Knight and maybe he’s just bluffing. A little more weight and he would be embarrassed. He’d be in Joe Louis’ division, where the color line doesn’t mean anything. tt tt tt Henry McLemore, the United Press sports writer, picked Charlie RetzlafT over Joe Louis. Moans Henry: “A few more months and I won't be able to pick the right way up a one-way street.” a it a BIG LEAGUE umpires are going to be “forced” to take spring training in the Sunny South with all expenses paid. What do they mean, "forced?” The guessers are to be assigned to various camps and then rotated to get away from keeping one arbiter with a club too long. The hardest job for an umpire handling exhibition games is to keep from yawning. Oakland at Full Strength for Tilt Pride Back in Lineup for Go With Anderson College. Timet Special OAKLAND CITY, Jan. 22.—With the return to the lineup of Pride, who has been on the injured list the past fortnight, Oakland City College will have full strength for a return basketball engagement with Anderson College on the local floor tomorrow night. The Oaks turned back Anderson earlier in the season, but have been in a slump, losing four tilts since then. The invaders boast a record of six victories in nine contests. AMERICAN’S BLOW NOT LOW. CARPENTIEfi SAYS By United Press PARIS, Jan. 22.—Georges Carpentier, one time boxing idol of France, expressed the opinion today that Lou Erouillard, American middleweight. had knocked out Marcel Thil of France, recognized in Europe as world’s middleweight champion. in their bout Monday night. The referee awarded the bout to Thil on a foul in the fourth round, but Carpentier said the blows were not low. “Brouillard landed a beautiful left uppercut to the liver with terrific violence.” said Carpencier. “As far as I’m concerned there was no doubt that Thil was knocked out fairly." Brouiliard is attempting to get a return match. Oil** of Florida 8 finest Amt-rii'an plan hotels. On Turn pa Bay. 300 rooms, g ll l'leasant social lire. All W outdoor sports. Booklet.

Fan Dance When your team loses, dance away the bitterness of defeat! When your team wins, invest your joy into the rhythm of the rhumba.

League games are to start at 7 at the Pennsy gym and will be over at 9:30, when an orchestra furnished by the bureau will strike up the music for dancing until 11.
BATH FIGHTS TRFEST, BURMAN MAY FOLLOW By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 22.—Red Burman, the eastern heavyweight managed by Jack Dempsey, and Hank Bath, protege of Jack Kearns, will headline a card at the Chicago stadium next month if Bath succeeds in whipping Billy Treest here Friday night. Dempsey, here on a business trip, agreed yesterday to send his fighter against the winner of the TreestBath bout, as part of his campaign to find a suitable “white hope” opponent for Joe Louis.
Kennedy Flies, Falls and Bows to Numa on Mat Young Rivals All Even in Series; Old Favorites to Return for Armory Show Next Week. On the records, Leo Numa and Jack Kennedy are all even today. Larrupin’ Leo avenged last week’s setback by subduing Irish Jack in last night’s feature wrestling tug at the Armory. It was scheduled for two falls out qf three, but the Seattle blond performed his job so thoroughly that only one down was necessary.
Next Tuesday will be “old home night” for the Armory customers, with two pastimers who have been on the absent list for several weeks returning for action, along with Daniel Boone Savage, the hairy hillbilly. Irish Pat O’Shocker, rollicking red-head, who bumped off a list of Lop-notchers here months back, also is scheduled next Tuesday, Frank Speers, groaning Georgian and public mat enemy No. 1 as far as Hoosier fans are concerned, also has asked for a spot on the program, and would like nothing better than a chance to work on Mr, Numa. If handsome Leo is available and willing, Matchmaker Lloyd Carter hopes to close the deal. Leo Lucky, at That Numa required just 39 minutes to force to groan “uncle” in last night’s feature tussle—and there were many onlookers who opined that Leo was pretty lucky to get by so easily. For 35 minutes, the two speedy young grapplers gave the customers a good look at a variety of locks and bone-twisters, and matters stood about even. Then Minneapolis Jack took off on a flying tackle. The tackle was all right, landing right in Leo’s midsection, but the flying didn’t end up so well. Kennedy somersaulted right out through the ropes and came to a sudden stop on the floor outside in a landing that was anything but happy. He crawled back through the ropes with one leg dragging. That’s the leg Leo grabbed, doubled back in a toe hold. Kennedy was forced to give up. A doctor was called to the ring and after an examination, announced that Jack would be unable to continue, due to a torn cartilage in his knee. Ernie Zeller, husky Hoosier youth, won the referee’s decision over

Wolverine-Irish Football Rivalry May Re Resumed Notre Dame and Coach Kipke of Michigan Reported Behind Move. By United Press ANN ARBOR, Mich., Jan. 22.—A campaign for resumption of football relations, broken 27 years ago, between Notre Dame and the University of Michigan was pushed today by The Michigan Daily, campus newspaper. The plans had the informal approval of the Rev. Fr. John H. O’Donnell, chairman of the faculty athletic control board at the South Bend (Ind.) school and Coach Harry Kipke, of the Wolverine football squad. “I am very happy,” Fr. O'Donnell said, “to learn of the movement being sponsored toward resumption of athletic relations. At the proper time, and upon the recommendation of Elmer Layden, our athletics director, I shall be glad to present the matter to our faculty board of athletics for its consideration.” Relations were broken in 1909 as a result of an incident occurring in a football game at that time. Fielding Yost, Michigan athletics director, heretofore has refused to consider negotiations that might lead to resumption of relations. He could not be reached for immediate comment coday.

For the last five minutes, Tommy was warped into a pretzel-like appearance by a series of Zeller leg-twist-ers, but the old toughy wouldn't give up. Big Boy Davis, Columbus (O.), strong guy, stopped Tiny Morgan, 280-pound Texan with the iron tummy, in the one-fall lid-lifter. Davis’ -fist didn’t make much impression on Tiny’s protruding abdomen, but when Big Boy reached over the ropes, dusted off Morgan’s whiskers with a rousing right, and then dived over the top strand of hemp and made a three-point landing on the prostrate Texan, it was all over.

evening. The first of four sessions of battling begins at the National Guard Armory Friday night at 8 o’clock and participants must be ready for weighing in and physical examination at the Armory Friday afternoon from 3 to 5. The entry list today was fast nearing the 200 mark predicted by Tourney Manager Fred Deßorde and other officials of the Bruce Robison Post of the American Legion. With more fighters, more experienced fighters and more ambitious fighters than ever before, the four programs are expected to draw a record turnout. Champions Back for More This will mark the first time in the four-year history of local Golden Gloves competition that action has been slated for four nights. Three sessions were required to decide champions in all divisions of the Open and Novice classes last year. The dates are Jan. 24 and 31 and Feb. 7 and 14. Among last year’s title winners who have announced intentions of coming back to defend their laurels and seek return trips to Chicago are Jack Coffelt, Fort Harrison heavyweight; Larry Kirk, lightheavyweight last year who will fight as a middleweight this time; Delbert Hutton, Anderson middleweight; Johnny Denson, local welterweight; Wilmer Hardesty, Indianapolis featherweight, and Bud Cottey, a bantamweight last year who has grown up and will gun for Hardesty’s feather diadem in the coming tourney. Rated as strong heavyweight contenders are Russ Bennett, 202pound Richmond husky who lost a close decision to Coffelt last year, and Elza Thompson, 6-foot-3 Negro youth who weighs in at 217 pounds. Bennett is in the Open class and Thompson is a Novice. Grid Warriors Ready Leonard Campbell, Manual High School football star, is a likely looking prospect, in the 175-pound field, but he will have to “go some” to out-punch Carlton Jones of Richmond and Frank lanuzzia, who also is quite a football figure at Fort Harrison. Harry Browm, winner of the middleweight eliminations in Vincennes in 1934, is the outstanding threat to upset Kirk. Marsnall Allison of Shelbyville was Novice lightweight runnerup last year and is stepping ambitiously into the tougher Open class in the current glovefest. These estimates are made on past performances and can not be taken as too accurate since “dark horses” are almost certain to pop up and bowl over the favorites. More than 20 fights are due on Friday night’s program. All are scheduled for three rounds, but may not go that far. General admission and reserved seat tickets are on sale at Haag’s Clay;x)ol Drug Store and the Lemoke Service Shop.

Like Steve Hamas and several other first-rate boxer s, Leonard Campb ell is turning from grid to ring in a campaign to gain further laurels .with his physical ruggedness. Leonard, snapped in a fighting mood here, was a star full bachon the Manual High School football team last fall. He became inter-i ested in the fistic game and improved s o rapidly that he has entered the Open rather than the Novice division of The T imesLegion Annual Golden Gloves tournament. The Manual grid ace is a 175 - pounder, and according to his “professors” at the Colonial A. C., packs plenty of promise and a “wicked” right mitt. The first of the four Golden Gloves session s is on schedule for Friday night at the Armory, starting at 8 o’clock.
'Dodger Daffiness Curse 9 Hits Lindstrom Full Tilt Newest Brooklynite Tears Up Hialeah Ticket, and Winning Nag Pays 35 to 1! BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 22.—That flowing cloak of daffiness which enfolds a baseball player as soon as he swears allegiance to the Brooklyn Dodgers, already has fallen about the shoulders of Freddie Lindstrom. Lindstrom has yet to sign a formal contract w r ith the Brooklyns, but from that day two weeks ago when he wired Manager Casey Stengel an acceptance of terms offered him for the 1936 season, he has been acting in a manner which would indicate that mid-July will find him stealing second when it’s already occupied, as jauntily as any of the seasoned
Daffiness Boys. We went to the races at Hialeah with Freddie yesterday, and the seventh saw him come through with a double play of befuddlement which, if translated to the diamond
of Ebbets Field along about May, will make him as dear to the hearts of the inmates of that asylum as was Babe Herman. Two minutes before the seventh race, Freddie bought a $2 ticket on Law maker, an inspired nag which came roaring out of the dust from nowhere at the top of the stretch to run the favorites
t. : • : -..d
in the ground and pay $70.69. As Lawmaker thundered into the lead Freddie jumped on a chair and screamed him home. “Come on, baby! Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy! Run for me you dog you, run for me!” Slide. Kelly, Slide! And when it looked as if he might be beaten in the final 10 yards Freddie, coaching from third base now, roared: “Slide for it, Lawmaker, slide for it!” Lawmaker made it without sliding, and Freddie, as he stood waiting for the pay-off numbers to flash on the board, put on a scene which combined the best features of anew father, a Comanche on the war path, and a guy getting money from home. When the figures went up announcing that Lawmaker had paid a little better than 35 to 1, Freddie yelled: “Lemme get to that cashier’s window.” He yanked a ticket out of his pocket and took one look at it for sure. That look cost him exactly $70.60, for it wasn’t the right ticket. It was a losing souvenir of the sixth race. The curse of the Brooklyns had reached him, way down here in Florida! Ana three months before the baseball season opens. In some way he had tom up and thrown away the winning ticket on the seventh race life-saver, and saved the utterly worthless calling card of the sixth race. Heartbroken, Lindstrom explained that the tearing up of the ticket was but another link in the daffy daisy chain he had been forging since he pledged himself to be true to the dizzy Dodgers. Two days ago he went shopping wearing a while shoe and r. black one. Last week he ruined a wrist watch by forgetting to remove it before jumping under a shower. What next, he wants to know? DORV PINS “CRY BABY" ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 22.—Dorv Roche, New Orleans, pinned “Cry Baby” Zaharias, Colorado, in straight fall&dn the feature bout of a wrestling program here last night.
Says He Declined $241,000 for Stars Bradley Tells of Yankees’ Rich Cash Offer. Times Special CLEVELAND, Jan. 22.—1f President Alva Bradley has his figures right, the Indians of the American League declined the huge cash sum of $241,999 for two local players, Outfielder Earl Averill and Joe Vosmik. Prexy Bradley said the offer was made by the New York Yankees. “We lost that amount over an eight-year stretch,” Bradley said, “but I told Manager Joe McCarthy of the Yankees that Cleveland is willing to gamble and endeavor to wipe out the deficit by keeping its stars and wait for better luck in the pennant race. I am sure it will come back through the gate if our club is successful in staying on the heels or in front of the Tigers, Yankees and Red Sox.” Kentucky Holds Foe to One Goal in Last Half By United Press LEXINGTON, Ky., Jan. 22.—Kentucky held Michigan State to one field goal in the second half and defeated the Spartans, 27 to 19, last night. Michigan State led, 13 to 12, at the half.

JESUIT RULING FORCES CANCELLATION OF GAME By United Press SANTA CLARA CaL, Jan. 22. Santa Clara University officials today announced that the Broncos have been forced to cancel a tentative 1935 football engagement with Boston College in Boston next Oct. 24 because of a Jesuit School ruling that no trips requiring more than four days’ leave from classes may be permitted. Nine days were to have been allowed under a church provincial’s approval, vetoed by the General of the Society of Jesus. The Rev. Zacheus Maher, S.

After being hen.' to a 17-to-13 advantage at the half-way nark, Wabash College came back strong at the start of the second half to sweep to a 34-to-25 victory over arch rival De Pauw in the local college gym last night. Jack Bems, “Doc” Heath and Davis carried the offensive drive, being the only Wabash men to score from the field. After Moore opened the scoring to put the Tigers in the lead, Berns and Heath retaliated to start the home team’s attack. In the second half, Davis found the range to aid in increasing the margin to 24 to 13, and the Methodists were unable to catch up. Davis was credited with high scoring honors with 16 points, one more than chalked up by Berns. Moore hit three times from the field and thrice from the charity line to pace the losers.

Confidence That’s What It Takes to Sink Field Goals, Haarlow Says.
BY WINTHROP LYMAN United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Jan. 22.—8i1l Haarlow. captain and amazing shotmaker of the Chicago basketball team, stepped lightly onto the playing floor in the Maroon fieldhouse, eager to begin another routine practice session. His straight black hair contrasted sharply to the clean white sweatshirt which covered the upper half cf his lean body. He dipped his hands into a burlap bag, pulled out a basketball and fondled it almost with reverence. None of the other players had appeared, so while they finished dressing Haarlow sat on a table along the sidelines and talked frankly about his favorite sport. His basketball record has been as remarkable as the football record compiled by that other astonishing Chicago senior, Jay Berwanger. a a tt AS a sophomore, Haarlow scored 109 points in Big Ten competition. Last year he led the Conference with 156 points, compiling 51 field goals and 54 free throws. He is leading the league in the current race with 55 points, scored in four games. Let’s start at the beginning. Bill,” it was suggested. “When did you first play basketball.” “I joined the Y. M. C. A. when I entered high school and learned to play the game that way.” “Who taught you to shoot?” “No one in particular. I just picked it up from watching tba other kids, I guess. Then, of course, I had good coaches at Bowen High School and here at the university.” Haarlow played four years on the Bowen team, in Chicago, and this is his third year at the Midway, but in all that time he never has competed on a championship outfit. tt tt B THE most points Haarlow ever scored in one game was 52. That happened one time in high school when he got 24 baskets and four free throws. His record in a single Big Ten game is 22, against Northwestern when he was a sophomore. Haarlow revealed that his favorite shot, and the easiest one for him to make, is a one-handed heave inside the free throw line. "I thought the new three-second rule would hinder me this year,” he explained, “because I had been used to short shots from the circle. As a matter of fact, I only made three baskets in high school from outside the free throw line. ‘‘But I found the rule didn’t make much difference. “I’ve been getting longer shots, taking time to get set and then using both hands. If a guard is there to prevent the shot, I like to drive in and try for the foul.” tt tt tt “T TAVE you ever tried to figure XXout, ill, just what enables you to shoot so accurately?” he was asked. “I don’t know exactly, but it always seemed to me that you have to have confidence to sink ’em. Frankly, I expect to make a basket every time I get a clean shot.” Nels Norgren, Chicago coach, has another explanation for Haarlow’s accuracy. “It’s his marvelous muscular co-ordination,” the veteran coach said. “I’ve never seen any other player like him in that respect.” BELIEVE OTT RAISED Timet Special NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—Mel Ott was believed to be one of the few New York Giant baseball players to receive a pay increase as he returned his signed contract for the 1936 season to the club office today. Ott, youngest 10-year man in the league, did not reveal his salary price, but observers believe it is some SISOO over the $15,000 he drew last season.
