By Eddie Ash THE OLD OPPORTUNITY LEAGUE tt n a I STEVE O’NEILL THERE FOR TRY

burly Steve O’Neill of the bashed-in nose is right up there in the Opportunity League this year. Indianapolis fans remember him as the hustling manager of the Toledo Mud Hens. He returned to Cleveland as coach last spring and before the season ended Walter Johnson was ousted as pilot and O'Neill was moved up. Steve succeeded all right the remainder of the distance and was rewarded with the 1936 pilot's seat. It’s a tough spot. Cleveland has been the “spring” pennant winner the last couple of seasons and Johnson took the fali after the club folded when the pressure grew warm. It's about of the same strength now as when Johnson held the reins and failed. Therefore, the big sports question may be answered, the one about: "Does the manager make the team or does the team make the manager?” Steve O'Neill, “of the old school,” will try to solve the riddle because it's his neck that is sticking out. Steve is a former catcher of long big league experience and the opinion of observers is that the veteran knows how to handle pitchers. Perhaps his system will prevent that Cleveland mound staff from doing a fadeout in midsummer. Critics of Walter Johnson said he worked the hurlers too hard during spring training and had them throw too much in the early days of the schedule.

tt a a JACK KEARNS has hired himself a press agent to ballyhoo Lorenzo Pack, the Negro heavyweight. Kearns is going to "chase" Joe Louis and endeavor to match the pair. Part of Kearns’ publicity reads, "Louis practically turns white when the name of Pack is mentioned.” Lorenzo stands 6 feet 1 inch and weighs 205. a. a a And another heavyweight prospect has been tracked down in Palestine. He is 19, towers 6 feet 5 inches and hits the scales at 225. The name is Rachmiel Rutkin. New Yorkers plan to Import him and send him through the mill. a a a JOCK M'AVOY, the British lightheavy, believes in making hay while the snow falls. He knocked out Jimmy Smith in New' York Monday night and is booked to battle Jack Kiernan in New Bedford Saturday. Then on Monday he’ll go to Philly to mix with Anson Green.

Discovery 8-5 Race Favorite Vanderbilt Ace Makes Test Run in Speedy Time. By United Pr< s* ARCADIA, Cal., Feb. 19.—Discovery, A. G. Vanderbilt’s Sagamore slusher, today quietly munched oats in his stall while handicappers attempting to predict outcome of the SIOO,OOO added Santa Anita Handicap next Saturday muttered, "Beat Discovery and take it all.” The son of Display yesterday demonstrated that he was prepared to run the race of his life after working out over the full handicap distance of a mile and a quarter in 2:08. Discovery covered the distance in the heavy mud so easily that dockers blinked and checked the time with an electric timer before they would believe it. The Vanderbilt horse carried his full handicap weight of 130 pounds and his regular pilot, Jockey Johnny Bejshak, up. Odds on Discovery in the future book at present are 8 to 5 and they were expected to drop even lower by the day of the race. The price was snortened from 2 to 1 last Saturday when Cavalcade and Head Play were scratched. Fred M. Alger's Azucar, winner of last year’s Santa Anita handicap, has a strong dislike for a slow track and may even be scratched if the turf is not firm.

Pity Poor Gus Fan as Sports Flood Breaks Gone Are Days of Winter Hibernation; Athletic Events Are Swamping City.

BY HARRISON MILLER GONE are the days when citizens tilted back in an easy chair and hibernated in leisurely vigils waiting for the harbingers of spring to pace the baseball clubs back to the home lots. The stove league debates with their quid-rolling and cuspidor target events were interspersed with an occasional game of ten pins, a “boxfighting” exhibition and the high school kids’ basketball game to constitute an otherwise dormant winter sports season.

“Them was the days,” but they were a far cry from the hectic program that has superimposed itself on the modern sport page. Before the winter calendar of 1935-36 has been torn off, Indianapolis sports followers will have been subjected to one of the most strenuous periods ever dished out to a local public in one season. As though the past two months have not already given a headache to the ardent public, the next few months threaten a nervous breakdown for any one trying to keep abreast of the sports parade. it St QTARTING off New Year’s day, life was just a bowl of adversaries, with most of the grid bowls of the South and West holding midwinter grid classics. Fans have been kept in strict training ever since by the usual torrid Hoos'er high school and college basketball campaign the Western Conference race, indoor track meets, swimming meets, appearances of cue artists, hockey, Golden Gloves jamborees, and weekly wrestling matches. Indianapolis will be the central sports pulse of the nation on at least three occasions during the next two months. The Ame v ioan Bowling Congress tournament me ves into the spotlight at the special alleys at the Fairground March 9 and nearly 15,000 pinmen will make an assault on the maples during the five-week stand ending April 14. The Butler Indoor Relays, most colorful collegiate carnival of the winter, will attract the nation's foremost cinder and bo.;rd-oval athletes on March 21. The Hoosier capital, one of five centers where the National Collegiate Athletic Association will hold its Olympic team basketball tryouts, will be the scene of the first tourney to draw’ such stellar aggregations under one roof as Notre Dame, Purdue, Indiana, Northwestern, Butler. Ohio State and Illinois. The date has not been selected. a it it TPHE city high schools are taper- -*• ing off a strenuous hardwood season in preparation for the cage tournaments which in Indiana provide enough excitement for any citizenry. The three-day sectional gets under way at Tech High School March 5. transferring to Anderson the following week for the regional, and returning to the East Side gym March 21 for the semifinals. The following Saturday, the state association holds its experimental four-team state final here. Easter Day brings the Indianapolis Indians back to Perry Stadium to lift the lid of another American Association race. With spring -ports coming to the fore with baseball, golf, 500-mile race, tennis matches and other events, fans will realize that it's Olympic year and the arduous winter season was tame in comparison or that it is all an endless cycle that rolls on unrestrained. . i A,

Armory Heats Up When Irate Irishman Rages Referee Guchannan and Wrestler Speer Suffer as RedHead O’Shocker Stampedes During Bitter Tussle. BY PAUL BOXELL There’s notlung certain about it, but I’ve a suspicion Buck Buchannan holds little neighborly love in his heart for red-headed Irishmen. In fact, as he massages an aching chin today, he’s probably wondering w'hy Irishmen have to be red-headed, a combination which naturally produces violent temper, and why he had to be in the wrestling ring when a crimson-thatched Son o’ Erin allowed his wrath to soar out of control.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1936

M*> T Jr

Buck was refereeing the Hercules A. C. mat program at the Armory last night, and was doing all right by himself until he committed the grave mistake of attempting to suppress a wild display of anger by Irish Pat O'Shocker. Pat, a 227pounder from Salt Lake City, got his Irish up during the second fall of the feature tussle when grimacing Frank Speer, 236-pound Georgia “meanie,” tossed him through the ropes and into the ringside seats a couple of times. He’s Angry, it Seems Irish Pat stormed back into the ring after his second outward trip with his face and neck as red as his hair and his eyes blazing. He headed straight for Speer and rammed his knee into that gentleman’s expansive mid-section. As Speer doubled over, Pat bopped him on the chin -with his forearm, then countered with his knee again, keeping up that rhythmic procedure until Referee Buchannan, deciding the irishman was tossing in a few illegal punches and strangle hoids for good measure, husv.led to intervene. Peevish Pat turned on Buck with a snarl, whirled him to the canvas, and renewed his assault on Speer, who evidently was past the stage of resistance. Buck tried to join the party again and was rewarded with another flying dive into the resin. As you might suspect, the roving referee was a little worked up himself by that time, so he bustled back into the melee, only to be met squarely by Pat’s bruising forearm, which necessitated a third quick trip to the floor. Awards Match to Speer Let it be said of Buck that he can take it. He pulled himself up again, caught Speer alone a moment w'hile Pat was catching a second breath, and raised the Georgian's hand in victory. Then the irate Irishman went completely beserk. While a crowd of spectators surprisingly large for : the frigid weather milled noisily about the ring. O'Shocker made several extra-curricular attacks on his bewildered foe despite the cautious efforts of the referee, handlers, and three or four guys named Elmer to pen him up. Hostilities finally ended when Speer found his way out of the arena and headed for the d*essing room, leaving the Irish red-head to rant and snort with his selfappointed cooler-offers. The excitement lasted over a span of five minutes. Speer won the first fall in 23 minutes after slowing O’Shocker with a series of fore-arm smashes. Danny Draws the Line Daniel Boone Savage, of the Boyd County. Kentucky, Savages, offered to shake hands in his best hill billy etiquette with Bill McElroy, 270pound Bostonian, before they went at it in the semi-w'indup. But McElroy impolitely disregarded the paw of good will, and a minute later found himself being tossed all over the ring. Big Bill resorted to speed of the backward variety. Bewhiskered 250-pound Savage chased him for seven minutes, then j literally drew the line. Danny described an imaginary stripe across the center of the arena with his toe. dared McElroy to transgress it. McElroy did, took a neat clip on the chin, sp.-awled flat on his back, and the pride of the Boyd County Savages was assuaged. George Tragos. 215-pound St. Louis Greek, tossed Jim Morris, 215. Memphis, in 21 minutes In the opener. BOUT ENDS IN DRAW By United Press NEW YORK. Feb. 19.—The final event on the St. Nicholas wrestling 1 program ended in a draw between Maurice Lachappelle of France and Victor Weber of Germany last ; night.

DISCOVERY . . . FAVORITE

BY MAX RIDDLE NEA Service Turf Editor ARCADIA, Cal., Feb. 19.—Two months ago the $112,500 Santa Anita Handicap was considered a cinch for Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt’s Discovery. But when the entrants face the barrier here Saturday, in the second edition of the classic, it will be any horse’s race. Discovery, though he usually needs several races to get into his best shape, seems ready to run at nearly his best form. But Top Row also is ready, and has been improving ever since the second time he whipped Vanderbilt’s horse. Time Supply, which has run two brilliant races at Santa Anita, and Whopper, the horse that commanded attention in Florida, also are in great shape, and may be capable of giving Discovery a beating. And there will be other contenders, of course. This year’s event is notable for its brilliant field of well-conditioned horses. This observer figures you can forget imported Azucar, last year's inaugural winner. He did win recently, but he stands little chance against Top Row, Time Supply, Discovery and Whopper. - That goes for most of the others, too.

The Kautskys and the Detroit Iled-Aids are in the van in the Western division of the loop with the locals holding a one-game lead over the Motor City team.
