HOOSIER BIG THREE ALL-STATE

TWO TALENTED TEAMS NAMED

—

NDIANA'S Big Three football teams represented by Notre Dame, Purdue and Indiana each met defeat ° here and there along the line, but on the whole they monopolized some of the national spotlight at times and gained their share of the headlines. . . . Major teams playing major opponents, the three Hoosier grid squads attracted a large measure of attention as the season advanced and each team supplied one or more standout performers rated with the best in other football hotbeds over the land. The Times today presents two Big Three all-state teams and the rosters look strong enough to hold their own against any kind of opposition. Power and speed are featured and the talent contained in the lineup of the first team would fulfill a coach's dream from end to end and in the backfield. . . . Notre Dame gains four places on the No. 1 squad, Indiana the same number, and Purdue three. . .. On the second squad Purdue is honored with four positions, Notre Dame four, and Indiana 3. . . .

Elimination of Center Jump

Speeds Game

Removes Premium on Height; Firing Already Begun on Indiana Courts.

| | | |

By JERRY BRONDFIELD NEA Service Sports Writer NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Although one of the craziest of football campaigns now is a part of the record book, the winter sports fan doesn’ have to worry about suffering a letdown in his sporting entertainment. The 1937-38 hoop season should be the fastest and sharpest ever placed on the hardwoods. This prediction is based principally on the elimination of the center jump. Coaches, critics, and combatants radical rule change in years will do more toward speeding up what already was a very fast game than anything else ever attempted. The premium on height no longer wil. be as great. The worry connected with controlling the tip-off very conveniently has been erased, since the tossup will be used only at the beginning of the game, at the start of the second half, the start of each overtime period, after a technical foul, and following the second double foul. Height, of course, still will be a desirable factor for rebound work oo the blackboards and in working the ball down=-court. There's no getting away from that. But the smaller, speedy sharpshooters nevertheless will get their big break. Plays to Most People Where coaches formerly kept a pint-sized player on the bench— albeit regretfully—in order to use a center just two sizes smaller than a horse, they now can slip someone into the lineup with proportions more befitting the species homo sapiens. There's no doubt that basketball has been and still is coming along with a rush. It draws more paid admissions through the turnstiles than any other game played in America— including our great national game of baseball. In Indiana, where the nation's besketball fever reaches its peak, the net season is already under way. More than 700 high schools have begun their season's play, which wil. continue until March, when they wind up with a grand climax in the form of a touranment to determine the state champion. Hoosierdom's big three among colleges, Purdue, Indiana and Notre Dame, annually produce teams which are among the best in the land, and this year appears to be no exception. But some of their stiffest college competition will come | from smaller schools located in the | state where a basketball player | grows on every bush. | Through the efforts of Ned Irish, | energetic promoter of the cage sport at Madison Square Garden, the best collegiate fives in the country are brought to New York to perform before crowds of 15000 and more. The 1937-38 season is expected to be bigger than ever. Among the outstanding college clubs that will appear before basketball-minded Broadwayites are California, Notre Dame, Southern Methodist, Vanderbilt, Illinois, Minnesota, N. Y. U,, Long Island, and Manhattan. Eastern fans, however, will miss the opportunity of seeing one of the finest quintets in the country in action. Stanford, shaping up once again as the best club on the West Coast and the strongest threat for national honors, will not return this year,

Whoop Until Mid-March Leading Stanford once again fis Hank Luisetti, the rangy forward who probably is the finest offensive player in the country. The Cardinal star, fully recovered from an appendectomy early this fall, is expected to have his greatest season and reign as Pacific Coast scoring champion for the third consecutive year, Number two choice for nationwide recognition is Notre Dame. The Irish undertake a 23-game schedule, meeting the toughest competition in the midwest, but the presence of eagle-eyved Johnny Moir in the lineup, backed up by Paul Novak, star center, is enough nucleus for another really great team. It's full steam ahead: from now until the middle of March and many an official who got along in fine shape a year ago, is wondering if he'll have the speed to keep up with the game in 1937-38.

“Ridiculous,” Moguls Say of Possible Sale; Nearly 800 At Session.

By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 30.—The nation's baseball leaders from Coast to Coast—nearly 800 of them— gathered today for the opening of the 36th annual minor league meeting tomorrow. Although the meeting is primarily | for the minor leagues, every major | league club sent representatives. | Many of the major clubs expect to | make deals during the three-day | | convention or lay the groundwork | for trades which will be completed at the major league meetings in | Chicago next week. | Rumors circulated thick and fast. | One of the hottest reportsgthat Joe | Medwick, National League's most valuable player, has been placed on the market—apparently has cooled off. Most National League officials | prand the story that Medwick al- | ready has been traded to the Giants, circulated in New York last week, as ridiculous. The deal supposedly was to trade Mel Ott, Hal Schumacher and Gus Mancuso for Medwick. The Chicago Cubs, who covet Medwick as badly as any club in the] | league, consider any bidding for the
