CAT REGULARS SEE HEAVY DUTY

. . : ONLY EIGHT HAVE BEEN USED

TINNER of six games and loser of one, Northwestern’s basketball team, current leaders in the scramble for the Big Ten championship, can lay claim to honors as the “iron man” squad of the Western Conference. . . . When the new rule abolishing the center jump was introduced its sponsors claimed that it would result in teams using more players. This situation has not prevailed at Northwestern where, ih fact, fewer players have been used in games this year than under the old rules. . . . But eight players have seen action in the seven Big Ten games played by the Wildcats to date, and now one of them is ineligible and still another is ill : : Against Wisconsin recently, the Wildcats employed but six players, three of whom, Jake Nagode, center, and Ad Vance and Bob Voigts, guards, played the entire game. . . . The other three who shared the forward positions were Jean Smith, Fred Trenkle and Mike McMichael. 2 »® # : % ® 8 o : HE new rule has proved beneficial to the centers, judging from Northwestern's experience. . . . Jake Nagode, the Wildcats’ pivot player and leading scorer of the team, was only a part-time player under the old rules where it was customary to require two players to share the arduous jumping duties. “ This year, Nagode has played full-time in all seven of Northwestern’s Conference games and has shown steady improvement in each encounter. . . . He ranks 13th among Conference scorers with 55 points. . . . He attained his peak performance in the Indiana game on Hammond Tech at Efieraeh. (Gary).

Loss of Bernard Davis through ineligibility and the temporary loss of Jim Currie because of illness deprives the Wildcats of a pair of crack guards in the heat of the title race. . . .

UPPORTERS of the strong Franklin College quintet, Indiana ColS lege Conference leaders, call attention to an “out” in the Grizzlies’ league standing. . . . They say Coach Tillotson’s team is entitled to a record of 11 victories and one defeat in Conference competition and point to the; schedule to prove it. . . . The Grizzlies’ standing has

been carried

10 wins and one lose.

Franklin fans declare the double-header played by the Grizzlies on opening night consisted of two regular games and both won by the home team from Anderson College and Normal College of the

American Gymnastic Union. . .

. Statisticians have not included the

N. C. A. G. U. game in Pranklin’s victory column. - Speaking for the Grizzlies, Frank Johnson writes: “Since other ‘colleges in the Conference are being credited with their victories over the Gymnasts, it is only just and fair that Franklin be given the

same consideration.”

By United Press . Prep quintets roar into action this week-end in games which will indicate favorites for the state tour-, nament in all sections of Indiana! Several oustanding games are on the card tonight, the MuncieMarion clash taking the spotlight. The Bearcats need the victory to have a clean hold on the North Central conference crown, taken last year by Frankfort. The Hot Dogs still can share it this season if they beat Logansport next week and Marion defeats Muncie tonight. Tipton has cleaned house with two Big Ten quintets—Frankfort and Marion—this season, and give their five-inch height handicap to Kokomo with little fear. Kokomo averages nearly six feet two inches. The Tipton Blue Devils have speed and can hit from ‘way out but lose their advantage on rebounds. They may meet the Cats again in the Marion regional. If the Elkhart Blue Blazers have recovered from the buffeting last week-end by . Mishawaka and Goshen they probably will meet Central of Ft. Wayne in typical “comeback” styles, where many points are scored, mostly by one team. Monticello’s rush through 22 consecutive opponents meets its most solid resistance tonight at Wabash. No one will disregard the Indian’s chances in the state if they take No. 23. Wabash dropped Jeffersonville, 23 to 19; when the pride of the south came north a month ago, and came within three points of defeating Elkhart. Two Hammond rivals—Tech and Hammond High—mix in a hot; city: feud. A victory for the Wildcats would add to their record in the western division, which they already have won. The Wildcats have defeated Tech twice. The southsiders of Ft. Wayne test one of the down-state powerhouses at Bedford. Both have great season’s records. The Stonecutters bowed to Vincennes last week, outscoring the Alices from the field but Josing at the free throw line, 23 to

Tomorrow the Stonecutters will settle an argument that has awaited a climax all season. They meet Jeffersonville in the Red Devil fieldhouse. Reco give thé quintéts an even break, although Jeff defeated Vincennes, 25 to 16.

Henry (Legs) Young.

MUNCIE, Feb. 18—It has been reliably reported that there is a sharp upswing in the fortune-tell-ing business of late, with Hoosier coaches turning to palmists, astrologists and a variety of other “seers” in an attempt to “solve” the Muncie Bearcats. If you have a friend who is a coach, you should not allow him to approach books in this thirst for knowledge. Especially keep him away from a book loosely known as “The New International,” a 2620page volume by one Noah Webster.

For Mr. Webster has a few choice

words concerning rs” which would make your ‘coaching friend sprlek in agony. Quoting Mr. Webster: “, «oo (they) can move very fast for a short distance, especially on rough . . . ground.” . Name a rougher stretch of terrain, neighbor, than that which any would-be state champion - must travel. Trampled by the thundering Bearcats have been star quintets from every section of the state, including Morton of Richmond, Jeffersonville, Jefferso® of Lafayette, Kokomo, Marion and Hammond.

Butler Prepared For Tiger Scrap

Unsuccessful in breaking their losing streak against nonconference opposition, Butler’s Bulldogs will get back into the Indiana College Conference race here tomorrow against the Tigers of DePauw. Coach Tony Hinkle terminated the light workouts of this week yesterday, sending his team through a long workout on offensive tactics climaxed by a scrimmage with the freshmen. He indicated that today's workout would be limited to & light limbering-up drill. Donovan (Tubby) Moffet’s Tigers will be out to avenge Butler's 324t0-28 victory at G Jan. 12. That game marked the end of {Butler's highly successful earlyseason campaign and the beginning of their dismal losing string.
