SPORT REVIVALS UNINTERESTING, JOE Wit

Basketball’s Flashback Is To Be Tonight

Fans Yawn at Exhibitions of How Sports Used to Be, Williams Says.

Williams

There weren't enough gray | beards in the stands to form an ap- | preciative quorum, and the young-| sters just weren't interested. Co It probably will be the same with | the basketball flashback tonight | is to feature the original | rules as well as the original equip- | ment. including the historic peach | baskets. You know of course that | peach baskets were used instead of hoops in the beginning and that’s how the game got its name. The Boys Lack Sentiment From. the historians point of view these musty revivals are not without interest because they graphically illustrate the marked changes in mechanics, maneuvers and strategy. The trouble here is that the historians always form a very meager minority. And while the academic demonstrations are going on there is always a boisterous majority of impious youngsters who get up on tKeir hind legs and yell: “Get those | bums out of there, so we can see the | ball game.” Life, even in sports, | can be very difficult. At the present writing ‘most of i our sports seem to be fairly per- | fect but it is probably true dos critics of another generation | HR the same belief about | the sports of their era. Yet prac- | tically all our sports have been sharply changed in one form or | another. It is not too fantastic to suggest there will be still more | changes and thgf future genera- | -tions, looking back on similar revivals, will marvel that such an- | tiques could exist. Baseball Changes Few Basebali, once it became jelled, | has been subjected to fewer changes than any of our American sports. Except for the introduction of the foul strike rule in 1901, which compelled the catcher to remain directly back of the bat, there has been no basic change In rules or method of play. The elimination of freak pitching, such as the spitter, the shiner, etc., scarcely struck at the vitals of the game. Football, on the other hand, has been subjected to so many changes —and still is—that only faint traces | of the original pattern remain. There is only one rule in the first | code that is still in existence, and this relates to the height and width | of the cross bar on the goal posts | —and even the goal posts are no longer in their original position. | Basketball, younger than either | basebzll or football, has gone | through 2 constant series of re- | visions. The firs game was played | 45 years azgo at Springfield, Mass. At that time there were only 13 | rules in the hook. Today there are exzrtly 1132—which may explain why the officizls eternally are toot- | ing their whistles. Just why so | simple a game as basketball should | demand so many rules is bewildering to a sideliner.

Rougher in Old Days |

The old game wasn't as speedy | 1s the current edition but it was | undoubtedly rougher and the penalties were more severe. You | couldn’t dribble the ball but it | was all right to straight-arm an | opponent as in football. _ Two personal fouls put a player | out of the game and if the same player was put out of two games he was through for the entire sea- - son. A personal foul consisted mainly of holding and tripping. But still a vigorous right hand to the face in the guise of a straight arm was all right. It has been my experience that any attempt to compare the relative greatness cf basketball teams, past and present, leads to endless controversy. The original Celtics always fascinated me. I thought they were the tops. But I never saw the St. James’ Triangles of Brooklyn or the old Buffalo Ger- " mans, both of which built up amazing records. While the game today is speedier and more scientific, it is an open ' question whether the teams are better. For one thing most basketball today is played by the colleges and after four years the greatest of college teams must disband. Some of these old teams played together for 10 or 15 years. In that length of time even Herr Josef Doques should have been able to . star. “s, The University of Tennessee team plays Long Island University “in the windup at the Garden tonight.

That is the Mildred (Babe) Did-®

Honestly, I looked at her twice before I was sure she was the same Babe Didrikson that I had last interviewed at the Women's National Track and Field Championship at Newark, N. J., in 1931. That was the year before Olympic games in Los Angeles, and | the Babe: was just a sweat-shirty

Her working clothes were a pair of linimenty. shorts, split down the outside of the legs to allow full drive when running, and a slip-on shirt that needed washing. ~ But the Babe hasn't changed. I found that out when we walked on the first tee and I, with a flair of courtesy, offered her the honor. “Naw, you better, hit first,” she drawled, “cause it'll be the last time you get the honor.

How She Drives!

Lordy, how she busts those woods! Never less than 230 yards off the tee, and often 30 and 40 yards more than that.

I don’t want to brag—because I've tried to quit that—but I believe I can learn to play golf well enough to take all the girls.” There isn’t any doubt about it. She’ll do just that, in time.

University of Pittsburgh. John Bain Sutherland isn’t exactly crazy about Kern, his line coach for eight years, and Baker, who tutored his backs for six, assuming command of a neighbor and a. traditional rival, but the silent doctor always is pleased to see his charges step along. The Sutherland plan long has been recognized as one of the soundest in football, elsewhere and disciples of the canny Scotsman are in demand as teachers. When Dick Harlow went to Harvard he said that his attack would be patterned as closely as possible after that of Sutherland. Save for a slightly different backfield setup, the Crimson scheme checks closely with that of Pittsburgh. Howdy Odell, pony Panther back of 1933-4-5, drills the Cambridge backs. Major Ralph Sasse employs Sutherland methods at Mississippi State. Lou Little of Columbia and other leading mentors are close students of the Panther strategist. Eddie Hirshberg is leaving Pittsburgh to succeed Dr. Joe Donchess as end coach at Dartmouth. Dr. Donchess will practice medicine as will Dr. Ralph Daugherty, Pittsburgh’s all-America center of 1931 who has just left the coaching staff. Milligan Turns ’Em Out

Daugherty’s departure leaves Sutherland only Mike Milligan, the freshman coach, and Mike Nicksick, who helped Dr. Baker with the backs.

Matmen Draw $808.52 for Flood Fund

Attend as Guests; 2500 See Fast Show.

By EDDIE ASH

The wrestlers went over the top for flood rflief last night and their donations to the Red’ Cross today was $808.52 . Matchmaker Lloyd Carter’s show at the Armory, conducted on a nonprofit basis, developed into one ¢f the prize mat offerings of the indoor season and at the wind-up fans stood on chairs to increase the volume of their satisfaction. Stag nder the auspices of the Hercules A. C. and with all grapplers, ushers, ticket takers and other employes working without pay, the entertainment was a “knockout” from the outset. About 2500 fans and 250 National Guardsmen were on hand and the: three boutsy produced about every angle knowh to the rough . sport. The soldiers were there as guests of Adj. Gen. Elmer F, Straub and Matchmaker Carter, and were awaiting call to the flood-stricken area in southern Indiana.

Long Way to Lose

Cowboy Luttrall, a newcomer here, came a long way to get kicked on the chin and go down to defeat in a furious finale. His conqueror was Hans Schable of New York, a fast-working, tow-headed German of New York. Luttrall rode in from Texas and went on a tear like the cowboy of fiction on pay-day. He won the firstgfall in 10 minutes with a head scissors that looked very much like a leg stranglehold. This put him on the wrong side of the range to the crowd. Schable “turned on the heat” when the big fellows came out for the second fall and slammed his way to a “tie” in 17 minutes, during which time he threw Luttrall out of the ring. The third fall, also gained by Schable, lasted 12 minutes and was tallied after both absorbed a lot of punishment. The German was groggy, but recovered his steam sufficiently to connect with several jarring drop-kicks to Cowboy's jaw, and a body press that ended the match, with Luttrall flattened. Thiede Put to “Sleep”

In the middle event of the night Schnichi Shikuma, the hustling Japanese, used a “sleeper” hold to down Cliff Thiede, a former athlete at the University of Scuthern California. The affair lasted 14 minutes. Thiede offered stiff resistance and brought snarls out of the Japanese before jujutsu was brought into play. And it required two applications of the “sleeper” hold before the Californian was counted out. Thiede made a grab for Shikuma after Referee Frank Buchanan made his verdict and there was a lively postbout scrimmage before handlers got between the excited heavies. Louis Thesz of St. Louis upset Tommy O'Toole of Phoenix, Ariz, in straight falls in the opening match, the first in 30 minutes and the second in four. The Mound Cily tugger chose O’'Toole’s right leg to toy with and prevailed on both occasions with a step-over toe hold. The rishman had a “bad” right knee ang Thesz, being a professional, lost no, time in directing his attack at thas point. O'Toole made a fight of |it, however, and swerved to pugilism at times to save himself. an Davis Absent - The program was scheduled originally as a four-bout affair, but one grappler, rl (Big Boy) Davis, was unable to fill his engagement on account of flood conditions, Seven matmen reported on time, but ‘Gene Sunberg was left without an opponent. Matchmaker Carter rearranged the pairings and turned in a fine job. He estimated his own cxpense at $100, which he paid with a smile without tapping the box office till. He was a flood refugee himself when a lad, when high water swept his parents out of their home at East St. Louis, Ill. Sam Murbarger, chief inspector of the Indiana State Athletic Commission, waived the state tax on the show and Adjt. Gen. Straub donated the use of the Armory.

The season’s 48th 700 series; a 714, posted by Johnny Kiesel Jr. in the St. Philip No. 1 loop, topped the scoring of last night's league play. Kiesel cracked the maples for games of 226, 254 and 234 to reach his bulging series, which was a season record in the East Side loop. His Michaelis-McCahill quintet enjoyed a two-to-one victory over the opposing Lieber Beer, totaling 2875 in their trio of games. A 1051 opener featured the series.

Gick, Foley Shine

A pair of heavy totals emerged from the Rolles Printing-Cook’s Goldblume match, won by the former two to one. Doc Gick, with a pair of 215s and a 244 totaled 674 for the losers, while Leo Foley welded counts of 244, 189 and 223 for a 656 for the winners. John Barrett lent the aid of a 608 to the Rolles victories. Tony McCann gave Tic Toc Club a 619 in its double win over Tenpin Inn. Ed Ten Eyck’s 606 led Falls City Extra Pale to a shutout over Beck Coal & Coke, which had John Gerlach’s 600 as its best total. Don Johnson followed up his heavy scoring of Monday night with a 686 in the Hoosier A. C. loop at the Pritchett Alleys, the big series being good for city-wide runnerup honors of the evening. He had games of 180, 258 and 248 for the Indianapolis Office Supply, which won twice over Hatfield Electric, with Jack Hunt's 642 as its top solo series. Outstanding individual counts were lacking in the remaining team matches in which Leo P. Gauss Agency blanked Hoosier Optical and Kernel Optical and Bowes Seal Fast gained odd-game decisions over Barrett Coal Co. and John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance. x A two-way battle resulted in the Patrick Henry Beer League's individual honor race, Harry Schornstein and. Harold Rohr being the principals. The . former gained a one-pin edge on his rival when he reached 663 through 237, 222 and 204. Rohr’s runnerup count resulted from 235, 212 and 215. Neil King supported Schornstein’s topper with a 634 that boosted Salesman’ to a two-game win over Ales. -Walt Holtman gave the losers a 600.

Indiana Is High In Bowling Meet

By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 27. — From Press Agent Francis Albertani came word today that the 1937 World Bowling Championships in New York March 6 to April 10 will be the hottest tournament in the 37-year history of the American Bowling Congress. Everything about the A. B. C. tourney requires a superlative from the number of entries to the lumber for construction of the 28 special alleys in the 212th Field Artillery Armory. Its success is assured because the keglers are figured to leave some $3,000,000 in hotels, restaurant and merchant tills when they pull stakes May 1. Secretary Albert Baumgarten in Milwaukee is working overtime to take care of a record entry,” said Albertani. “When Promoter Al Lattin promised 3200 five-man teams, a record. in itself, he didn’t dream his boast would be topped by 300.” Prizes for New York's A. B. C. tournament total $120,000 and will have 20,000 bowlers struggling from 8:30 a. m., until 2 a. m. each day and night for 52 days of actual play. Outside of New York State with 2000 quintets entered, Indiana teams probably will gather the most prizes. In Indianapolis there are 105 leagues and 920 teams. Approximately 75 Hoosier teams are now entered with 55 from Indianapolis, the most prominent of which is the Falls City-Hi Bru team, winner of the five-man title last March. Cleveland, O. also will make a strong bid for honors with 125 quintets. Milwaukee will have 30 teams and three squads will come all the way from Spokane, Wash.
