By Eddie Ash SOME POPPING OFF GOES WELL man BUT DIZZY DEAN NEEDS GAG

D IZZY DEAN is engaged in another salary argument with the St. Louis Cardinals, which is all right. It wouldn't be Dizzy if he wasn’t popping off and demanding more money. Maybe he'll get it and okeh if he’s successful. But Dizzy frequently pops off too much and gets his neck out. He needs an adviser. Bane Ruth decided he was a one-man show at one time and lost the decision. He was fined SSOOO and suspended. After thinking it over the Bambino realized he was costing his team mates games and a chance for more money. And the Babe reformed. Now Ruth, out of league baseball, retains the admiration of the fans. Some of Dizzy Dean's arguments lead the public to believe he’s putting himself above his mates and team. That's when the fans desert an idol. They know other players are entitled to consideration. In other words, the crowd turns away from a braggart. Dizzy is advised to watch' his step. It's very easy to slip over the line. He's one of the best hurlers in the game and possesses the stuff to continue as a consistent winner for several more years. However, reports say Dean has made a practice of disobeying Manager Frankie Frisch and starting feuds with other Cardinal players. This situation can not last. All of the greats of baseball learned it paid to accept orders and play for the team as a whole. Discipline is necessary. Dissenters are sure to miss the Hall of Fame when their playing days are over. | ——

Through no fault of his own, Ned Irish, the boy promoter of New York, may lose his basketball gold mine at Madison Square Garden. Some of the sports leaders in Gotham think the colleges may withdraw their teams from the Garden and take them back to the campus gyms. Professional gamblers are the reason. They have swarmed to the big games and have become a menace to both players and student rooters. The defeat of N. Y. U. bv Manhattan last week brought the gambling situation to the headlines and an investigation by the John Laws. n a a From prize fighter to truant officer reads the life of Joe Shugruc, one of the few boxers who knocked out the wonder lightweight champ, Benny Leonard.

The Dodgers have until April 15 to make a decision on the CooneySherlock purchase, but Killefer feels sure Manager Casey Stengel will clear up the transaction long in advance of that date. The Indians will be compelled to fill two outfield posts and second base if Cooney and Sherlock are kept in the big show. Rookies signed by Killlefer are Ed Benzli, Chicago semi-pro righthander; Harold Egerer, California minor league and semi-pro catcher; Wayne Murdock, California semipro first baseman; CloydStith, Detroit semi-pro right-handed pitcher; Elmer Riddle, Georgia semi-pro pitcher. Elmer is a brother of Johnny Riddle, the Indians’ firststring catcher. George Trautman, new president of the American Association, will confer with Manager Killefer at the Perry Stadium offices tomorrow. Trautman is doing a good job of ’ pepping up” the league.

Judy Davies Hangs Up Golden Gloves Victory Times-Legion Bantam Wins Before 10,000 Fans; Four Mates See Action Tonight.

BY PAUL BOXELL Times Staff Writer CHICAGO. Feb. 25.—Optimism ruled in the Indianapolis Golden Gloves camp here today as four Times-Legion fistic aces awaited the second right of action in the Chicago Tribune’s spectacular “Tournament of Champions.” *

The four Hoosier capital scrappers slated to make their first starts in the huge mitt carnival tonight are Harry Brown, welterweight; Johnny Chesunas, middleweight; Frank lanuzzi, light heavyweight, and Elza Thompson, heavyweight. All hope to emulate the performance of Judy Davies, 118-pound member of the team, who scored a decisive victory in last night's opening program to advance into tomorrow night’s windup bracket. Two Eliminated Two other Indianapolis glovetossers were eliminated last night when they finished on the short end of decisions. They were Lightweight Norval Binninger and Featherweight Skeet Dickerson. Jimmy Williams, Colonial A. C. flyweight, of the Indianapolis Times-Legion team, defaulted owing to an injured hand. Judy Davies of the Oliver A. C.WPA Hoosier squad, smacked out a clean-cut decision over Eric Koberg. experienced St. Louis amateur. It was Judy’s fight all the way. He lashed out with both hands from his peculiar crouching stance. Young Davies opened with a double-barreled flurry that staggered Koberg in the first round. Koberg’s knees buckled under several stiff punches in the second frame. Scores Knockdown Davies came out strong for the third and crashed the Mound City scrapper to the canvas with a looping right-hand w’allop. Koberg was up at the seven count, but stayed decidedly on the defensive the rest of the way. Davies’ smashing triumph came after he and his opponent had drawn a bye through first-round matches. He will return to action tomorrow night vith other survivors. Approximately 145 bouts were run off before a crowd near 10,000 in Chicago Stadium, with three rings going at "white heat” for five hours. A large chunk was taken out of the original starting field of 364 scrappers representing 42 cities. Norval Binninger of Indianapolis was outpointed by Charles Meigel, Omaha youth. Meigel peppered Norval wlvh stabbing lefts in the first two rounds. The Indianapolis lad came back strong in the third. Binninger’s defeat came in a firstround bout. Dickerson Loses Dickerson was eliminated by Max Crosley, Fort Wayne featherweight who had won a decision in the opening round from Arthur Alto, Kenosha (Wis.) fighter. Skeet drew a bye in the first round matches. The scrappy Colonial A. C. firhter (vent the full route, but lost the decision on points. The Indianapolis mittmen cut fancy figures as they clirpbed through the ropes at Chicago Stadium outfitted in their maroon-and-white robes and orange trunks.

Silents on Top in Fray Wit It Attucks The Silent Hoosiers basketball team triumphed over the Crispus Attucks High School squad, 28 to 20, at the Butler fieldhouse last night.

J Judy Davies ... A Winner! Two Tough Rivals Close Butler Bill Play at Franklin Tonight; Irish Here Saturday. Butler University’s stony basketball path will end this week, but two jagged obstacles still block the road of the luckless Hinklemen. Tonight in Franklin for a return clash with the Baptists, the Bulldogs will find little chance to anticipate the invasion of the touted Notre Dame campaigners at the fieldhouse Saturday night. Butler tripped the Grizzlies at the fidldhouse earlier in the season. However, the Baptists who are always potent on their own small floor have had a successful reason with eight victories in 15 Indiana College Conference games while the Bulldogs have been on the dec.’ine since early this month. Despite the almost phenomenal pace of the Irish who have soared to the top ranks with a victory string including New York, Kentucky aod Pittsburgh, followers of the Butler team still hold to the conviction that the Bulldogs are capable of upsetting the vaunted Notre Dame squad. The Hinklemen lost the decision in the first clash at South Bend last month, but as all previous Irish-Bulldog tilts on the locai floor have been narrow-margin victories, Butler clings to a good chance of surprising the Keoganmen. MEN BUILDERS HOLD TWO ROUNDS OF PLAY Two rounds were run off in the Christian Men Builders table tennis tournament at the Paddle Club last night, 20 players surviving the opening matches. The event will be completed next Monday night. Survivors are Walter Gruca, R. W. Schnull, Paul Hardy, Edward Hine, Clair Hiliker, Bob Pogue, Don Hunt, Wallace Sims, George Stewart, Virgil Terry. James Highley, Harold Banta, Clyde Clay, Max Galoway. William Johnson, Virgil Smith, Carl Condon, Dick Montieth, James Shrout.

CHUCK HORNBOSTEL of Evansville, former Indiana University ace runner, won the 1000-meter title from a field of America’s best middle distance stars in the forty-eighth running of the national A. A. U. indoor track and field championships before 16,000 fans at Madison Square Garden, New York, last

Kautskys Go Collegiate , Beat Renaissance, 39-38 Chestnut, Wooden Share Limelight as Locals ‘Battle for Old Siwash’ in Thriller at Fieldhouse. BY HARRISON MILLER They’re in Connersville tonight—those Kautsky and Renaissance professional hardwood entertainers—but for those who think last night’s tussle at the fieldhouse was a “build up” for future games, there are some 3500 fans who win boast that it was a battle royal worth while.

It was college night, and the excollegians were out to do or die for Manager Frank Kautsky just as they gave all for dear old Siwash a few years back. Thanks to George Chestnut and Johnny Wooden, the locals emerged with a 39-to-38 decision, which, if nothing else, kept the crowd in the spirit of things. Make It Interesting If the boys were putting on the “old Army game” to bring a gullible public to future attractions, they were perfect actors and worked themselves into a noticeable lather in fooling the public. Those barnstorming New Yorkers had lost only four games in 78 prior to last night, and a team doesn’t contribute to many build-ups in donating that small amount. Aside from Frankie Baird and Ed Shaver, who kicked in a brace of field goals each, Wooden and Chestnut carried the attack. Big George at center was like a mad bull in a china shop under each backboard, waging duals with Cooper and Willie Smith. His five field goals and six free throws bear evidence of his good work. Wooden warmed up to his drives under the basket especially after Shaver entered the game to duplicate their once-famous fast breaks at old Purdue. Johnny cut under four times and added four charity tosses. Victors Ahead at Half The Rens held a 22-to-15 margin at the rest period. Chestnut tallied all but three of his points in the final period as the Kautskys took the lead and withstood the long-

The locals held a 38-to-30 lead with five minutes remaining, and after the invaders drew nearer, Cy Proffitt registered the game-win-ning point on a free throw.

Purdue Bounces Into First Place Tie With Indiana as Illini Is Dropped From Race Boilermakers Trim Minnesota Courtmen, 34 to 27, and Suckers Bow to Michigan, Leaving Big Ten an All-Hoosier Title Event. By United rrest LAFAYETTE, Ind., Feb. 25.—The Western Conference race is definitely all-Hoosier. Purdue University, with the best offensive record, and Indiana University the best defensive team, are deadlocked again in the van of the Big Ten scramble beyond reach of all challengers.

The Boilermakers, after, a 48hour stay in second place as a result of the campaign’s first defeat by Northwestern last week, bounced back into a tie with Indiana for first place. The Boilermakers drew back on even terms with their Hoosier rivals by whipping Minnesota here last night, 34 to 29 Wolverines W T in Illinois bowed to Michigan, 42 to 37, at Champaign for the fourth loss, assuring the Ulini and other Conference members of no better than third place in the final tabulation. Meanwhile, the Hoosier squads whose paths do not cross this season, have two more hurdles to vault. Each has won nine of 10 contests. Indiana opposes Northwestern at Evanston Saturday night, the team that, upset the Boilermakers. Purdue entertains the lowa team, which held it to a one-point victory on the Hawkeye court. Indiana is to wind up its schedule next Monday on the home court against the Ohio State team which handed it its only setback. Purdue concludes activities at Michigan March 7. Bob Kessler again paced Purdue to victory here last night against the Gophers and increased his individual scoring lead by contributing 11 points. After getting away to a (Turn to Page Seventeen)
