row; D you like to stop a line drive with your bare hands today? Prexy George Trautman of the American Association picked sub-zero weather to flaunt the 1936 schedule before the fans and it’s hot off the press to warm up the stove league. The usual 154 games are to be played and the threetrip plan is retained. The season is to open on Sunday, April 12, with the Western clubs in the East, which is the way it used to be before the magnates tinkered with the chart a few years ago. Monday April 13 is left open, but if bad weather interferes with the official opening in any of the four Eastern cities on April 12 the lid w ill be lifted on Tuesday April 14. The season closes earlier than usual—Labor Day. Sept. 7 to permit the play-offs. The O'Shaughnessy plan has been adopted and the team finishing first in the regular 154-game race will be declared the champion. On Wednesday Sept. 9, the first four clubs will engage in a play-off, the first club playing the third, and the second club playing the fourth, best four out of seven games, the two winners to meet in a similar series. The eventual play-off winner will represent the A. A. in a series with the International League representative club in the Little World Series. Dutch Zwilling's Kansas City Blues will help the Indians pry off the lid at Perry Btadium here on April 12. Milwaukee, St. Paul and Minneapolis will follow the Blues here. The Indians will go on the road after the Minneapolis series and supply the visiting attraction in the Millers’ home opener on May 1. •

808 INDIANAPOLIS has been assigned 11 Sundays, 10 Saturdays and one holiday. Labor Day. The Hoosiers will perform in Louisville on Memorial Day, May 30, and in Coloneltown again on July 4. By opening on Sunday the league expects all records to go by the boards if mild weather prevails. The advance sale here is encouraging and a capacity crowd is indicated. The A. A. will open two days in advance of the big leagues and will get a "break” on publicity by the arrangement. Prexy Trautman is going to order his umpires to keep the players hustling in an effort to speed up playing time. A large clock will be added to every scoreboard in the circuit to keep the athletes and fans posted on the time element. U tt B WHEN George Ireland got into that Notre Dame-Butler game at South Bend Saturday it was his fifty-seventh consecutive tilt. Johnny Moir with nine field goals good for 18 points ruined Butler and the Irish won. 35-27. Batts snared four fielders for the Bulldogs. Notre Dame resorted to a delayed offense to protect a lead when Butler rallied in the second half. The game count was 24-21 at one time. Butler was held to 11 points in the first half while Notre Dame tallied 22. Butler defeated Purdue, Purdue defeated Notre Dame and Notre Dame defeated Butler. And so it goes in Hoosierland basketball. B B B Johnny Townsend of Indianapolis collected 11 points for Michigan against Minnesota Saturday, but- - mates were cold and the Gophers put over an upset. The experts took a hard fall on that one. B B B Johnny Corriden of Indianapolis has been advised that he will stay on as No. 1 coach for the champion Chicago Cubs this year and Andy Lotshaw, Indianapolis, will begin his fourteenth season as trainer for the Bruins. B B B Harold Beaton, prosecuting attorney at St. Ignace, Mich., was the cheeriest of reserves when he was a third-string center on the 1930’3l Marquette University football teams. Recently he sent a friend a picture of himself seated at the judge's rostrum. “Still sitting on the bench,” read the autograph. a b b JERRY KUMIN, University of Wisconsin heavyweight boxer, sent ■ his entry to a Chicago Golden Gloves tourney and attached the following note: "I am 6 feet 2Vi inches tall, tip the scales at 209 and have a last summer’s record of 14 straight victorious fights. I don’t want to make myself sound conceited, but I am willing to step out and prove to the world that we men of Wisconsin are made of something stronger than whipped cream.” Nice going, Jerry. b a a lowa University does not playfirst year men on the varsity, but John Barko, of basketball fame there, will be the first Hawkeye athlete ever to win four cage letters. H-* began playing in February of 1933 and won a major “I” that season, the two following seasons and got in enough action to win one this season. He graduates in February.

Daring Al tt ts tt Gordon Escaped in Speed Crackups Here; Dies on Coast.

A® 99t

A L GORDON, hard-riding race driver (pictured above) who ■was killed in a crash at the Ascot track in Los Angeles yesterday, thrice "cheated” death at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Last spring Gordon qualified for the local classic at a speed of 119.481 miles per hour to earn a front row 7 position in the starting field. For 15 laps the daring Californian held his car with the leaders. On the next lap he lost control at the northwest turn and shot toward the outside retaining wall. His car overturned and remained suspended on the cement barrier, pinning Gordon to the brick runway. His crash helmet saved him from serious injury and he was able to walk back to the pits. B B B GORDON spent a few days in the hospital in 1934 when his car struck the wall on the southeast turn. Gordon skidded off the track in the 1932 race here and jumped the inside retaining rail. He managed to bring his car to a stop without injury to himself or his mechanic, but the machine was damaged so badly it was withdrawn for the day. “Spider” Matlock, Gordon’s mechanic, who was fatally injured in yesterday’s accident, has smacked walls on many American speedways. He rode to victory with Billy Arnold in the 1930 race here, but the following year both men were seriously injured in an accident. After spending several weeks in a local hospital, Matlock returned to the tracks. "Auto racing has suffered a great loss in the death of Gordon,” Theodore E. (Pop) Myers, Speedway general manager, said. "He was a driver of unusual personality as well as ability. And Spider’ Matlock will’ be missed. He was a popular figure at all race courses.” ST. JOE AND CENTRAL BATTLE AT DANViLLE Times Special DANVILLE, Ind.. Jan. 27.—The postponed tilt between Central Normal College and St. Joseph College is to be played tonight at the local gym.

Three Scraps on Conference Bill for Week Chicago Opposes Michigan Tonight, Then Treks to Purdue. By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 27.—Michigan, upset by the revived Minnesota team Saturday night, meets Chicago at the Midway tonight in one of the three Big Ten basketball games scheduled for the week. Semester examinations account for the lull in conference athletic activity. Chicago, in the conference cellar with five straight defeats, was humbled by Michigan, 51 to 33, earlier in the season, and is not conceded much of a chance to break into the victory column tonight. Northwestern advanced to third position in the conference standings by trouncing Chicago, 42 to 27, Saturday night. Capt. Bill Haarlow of Chicago dropped in three field goals and four free throws to retain his Big Ten scoring lead with 65 points. The surprising Minnesota team after losing four games, defeated Northwetsern earlier last week and Saturday night nosed out Michigan, 31 to 26. After tonight’s game conference competition will lag until Saturday when Chicago meets Purdue at Lafayette and Minnesota opposes Ohio State at Columbus. In non-conference games, Ohio State tonight meets George Washington at Washington, and Indiana journeys to Louisville to oppose the university there Friday night.

Stars Fall on Fenway Park

' ■ JR\ Johnny M.m nm 8BjB& '‘l ~ ' ■ ’ - 4 ' ■ , ronin ,71111)11., Fow

It’s been a profitable off-season for Manager Joe Cronin and his Boston Red Sox. Supported by Owner Tom Yawkey’s unlimited cash reserves. Cron in, who was purchased for a small fortune from Washington, finished fourth last season, which made Yawkey’s face red. Thereupon Tom put out another fortune for Jimmy Foxx, Roger Cramer, Eric McNair, Johnny Marcum and Heinie Manush. This situation puts Cronin on the spot more than any other man in baseball. It looks like a pennant for the Red Sox, or "else” for Manager Joe, who is not what he used to be as a fielder and hitter. The Irishman is faced with the odd situation of having an overabundance of good material and, strange as it seems, it appears that this offers just as many problems as having too little.

Local Five Bows Before Late Drive by Crusaders Tires Flash Into 11-7 Lead at Half, but Are Unable to Stop Jack Mann in Final Period. The local U. S. Tire hardwood campaigners muffled the visiting Chicago Crusaders during the first half of yesterday’s tilt at the Armory, but, bowed to a flashy second-half uprising that gave the Windy City

Negro team a 27-to-24 victory. Paced by Yohler, who scored six of his eight points in the opening canto, the Tires were away to an 11-to-7 lead at intermission. Big Jack Mann, former Muncie High School ace, and Patterson, who had been held scoreless in the first period, opened up to provide the winning punch. Mann captured high honors for the winners with four field goals. Leroy Edwards and Yohler were the only consistent scorers for the Tires. Summary : Crusaders (27). U. S. Tires (24).

Two Intra-City Tussles to Attract Top Attention on City Courts This Week-End High School Card Featured by Manual-Washington and Cathedral-Tech Encounters: Ripple Hopes to Trip Ben Davis; Shortridge in Twin Bill. BY PAUL BOXELL Two intra-citv skirmishes and an attempt by a local quintet to block the Ben Davis Giants' drive to a perfect season spice the Indianapolis high school basketball menu for the coming week-end. Washington, the vanquished, and Manual, the successor to the city public prep throne, renew an aging rivalry in the Continental gym Friday night.

Broad Ripple’s Rockets are to undertake a task at which two other local teams have failed when they strike out to conquer the raging Ben Davis county champions at the Shortridge gym Friday night. After 17 games, the Giants still know defeat only as something to hand to the other fellow, and among the unwilling receivers of those 17 presentations are Manual and Washington. Three Go On Road Ripple did not play last week, calling off a game w r ith Decatur Central because of the unsympathetic weather. Manual split even. The Redskins dropped a close one to Beech Grove Friday night, but bounced back with a 41-26 victory over Masonic Home at Franklin on Saturday night. Washington became victim No. 17 for the Ben Davis Giants. The other teams take to the road Friday night. Tech hopes for warmer weather than last Wednesday’s chiller, when a tilt slated for Lafayette was postponed, so that a scheduled invasion of Muncie may be made. Shortridge, showing a flicker of promise once again after a triumph over Cathedral, travels to Crawfordsville to resume an annual reunion. Cathedral treks to Brazil. Lest He Forget Muncie is a North Central Conference foe for Tech. The Bearcats were going big around the first of the year, but have suffered a relapse and are now down in Tech's neck of the loop standings. Coach Pete Jolly of Muncie was on hand for our recent city tourney and probably departed none too worried about the Techmen, since they didn’t reveal much in the line of genius during that event. But Coach Jolly had best not forget that Coach Bayne Freeman still has the same boys who battled Frankfort’s loop leaders to a 31-31 standstill. The other intra-city fracas on the week-end bill is to pit Cathedral against Tech at the East Side goal shop Saturday night. Despite that loss to Shortridge last week, the Irish should rate even money with the East Siders. The Cathedrals have been turning in off-and-on ball all season and are an even bet to be “on” next Saturday. Neither squad will have the advantage of extra rest since both face tough tussles ana road jostles on the preceding night. Home Again, Blue After hooking up with a Crawfordsville team which is far improved over last year’s Athenian edition, but still not exceptional, Shortridge’s Blue Devils return home Saturday to tangle with Rushville. The Lions have been limited to a small number of victory roars this season, and so do not stand to overwhelm the North Siders, though they may make it a hot scrap with either team likely to wind up on top. Tech whipped the Lions earlier in the season. But, as you may have heard, Tech also whipped Shortridge.
