: Basketball Is 47 Years Old

Two Cify Games Are-Carded On Anniversary.

By LEO DAUGHERTY For the basketball life of him ‘Mr, Arthur I. Trester, Indiana

High School Athletic Association Commissioner, was stumped today when he was [asked what day it was.’ | . His memory and calendar showed . ‘that it was Jan. 20, but he didn’t recall that it wds on this identical January date 4] years ago that Dr. James Naismith invented the game of basketball.

Forty-seven years is a short span

. in the life of any sport, but the re-

markable thing] about basketball is [that its inventor still lives and durling his own lifetime has watched Ithe sport grow | into the nation’s most popular winter pastime. Dr. Naismith,| who devised the art of shooting a rpund ball through a hoop to keep [fellow students at Springfield, Maks., College in shape during the winter months without the drudgery of ordinary gymnastic sessions, is an| active professor of physical education at the University

Meet the Old Sufficiently rested and feeling like royalty after winning the city championship, | Oral Bridgford’s Manual Redskins have an evening's task cut out for them at Washington tonight. The game should be something better than was seen at the late City public high school tournament for it ‘pits the new champs against the dethroned title holders. Coach Rowland Jones of the Continentals no donbt will find it difficult to maintain his usual calm composure on the bench. The Shortridge Blue Devils, still . smarting after their rout mn the tournament, have to face a stubborn Irishman tonight. It’s Cathedral against Kenny Peterman’s North Siders at Tech gym. The teams are using the East| Side goalhouse because it has aj large seating capacity. - : * .

Sacred Heart entertains Pittsboro M!

at the Cathedral gym, and Gary Roosevelt is at Crispus Attuck. The balance of the week-end « schedule for City teams finds Lafayette Jeff at Tech tomorrow night and Broad Ripple at Cathedral. ¥ 2 8

Coach Everett Case of the Frankfort Hot Dags, inventor of the stall, watched his lads go through two periods of slow action the other night against [the Lebanon Tigers. The Casemen went scoreless during the first period. . . . They froze on to the pill in the last frame to eke out a 29-to-26 decision. 2.2 2 The Hagerstown Tigers continue as one of the toughest of all the little school teams in Indiana. . . . They have not been trimmed on their home floor. . . . Their fancy lad at twirling the sphere Srougit . . Ani

he’s just a junior. | North Liberty in the northern part of Hoosierland hasn't received much mention, but has a record of 14 victories without a scathing. . . . Jeffersonville probably will travel farther than any other team in the State for one engagement. . . . The Ohio River boys tramip' to Hammond on Feb. 4. : re

w ” o / : What's become of the legislative action on the I. H. S. A. A.? Commissioner Trester is not worried in the least. : i Edinburg is out of sectional com petition via. the alumni association - route. . . . The Maroon grads voted in the negative on that score because of the unscheduled fuss on the floor last year when Edinburg played Franklin. . . . The alumni feel that hard feelings might have disastrous results. & 2 2

Peru of circus fame is worried about its inexperienced team. . . . They've been to the post 11 times and found prey in only one opponent. . . They licked Hartford City, 37 to 25. : » " 2 Somg of the writers about the polished floor pastime are talking about how the guards have come into the scoring picture of late. ... It wasn’t so many seasons back i that a coach expected only his for-

| wards and center to make the coun-

ters. . . . Purdue’s Johnny Wooden was one exception to that rule. . . the Dribbling Duke averaged about 150 points a season in Big Ten play. One of the standouts among the defensive boys in a scoring way this season is Indiana’s Ernie Andres. . . . They're still talking about his scoring recqrd against Illinois. . Thirty ih he accounted for that night. . . . There are rumors that he’s sharpening up his aim for the return game with Purdue.” . That’s right, Piggy Lambert. . . . We're not trying to irk you.

3d ‘Triple’ for Meade : MIAMI, Jan. 20 (U. P.).—Jockey Don Meade boasted his third “triple” of the Hialeah meeting today. Meade captured the fourth race yesterday with Lady Orchid, a 10-to-1 shot: the fifth by a nose with First Entry and the eighth with Quicker.

New Augusta got off to an early lead and was never headed, although the Franklin team made a strong bid in the last few minutes.

Coach Robert Gladden’s Hawks apparently played “under wraps” most of the tilt and finished with several second-stringers on -the floor.

By United Press Hoist the storm warnings, boys, because there’s a “big blow” under way in Indiana high school basketall. If you have your doubts, ask tne folks around Hammond today and theyll tell you how the storm began in their sector. iE

The Wildcats, comprising one of the teams expected to cut a big swath toward the state tournament, were bowled over last night for their third defeat of the season.

{Froebel of Gary defeated them, 28

to 20, in one of the Calumef district’s major upsets of the year. No one expected the deluge of baskets that descended on Hammond, since Froebel had won only one victory before last night in the western division of the Northern Indiana Conference. But the Blue Devils took command in the: first quarter and held the lead all the way. Only once—in the third period—did - the Wildcats threaten.

Two Tough Ones for Jeff

The storm is expected to descend elsewhere in the state in today’s heavy round of fireworks, and continue its blow. through tomorrow night. Undefeated Jeffersonville

{must tackle two tough opponents—

Evansville Bosse tonight and Anderson tomorrow night. Undefeated Huntingburg after taking on Cannelton tonight, dives into Evansville Reitz tomorrow night. Even the most conservative observers see -the possibility of these two undefeated clubs being blasted for the first tine. The only other team in the state with a clean face, South Bend Central, is expected to come through the storm with little trouble, playing at Goshen tonight and at home with Kelvyn Park of Chicago tomorrow night. "A glance at the important game played thus far this week shows several notable things. Ft. Wayne, South Side, protecting its state championship laurels, pushed over Ft. Wayne Central, 43-36, but Kokomo, a team that has been defeated only once this season, was hard-pressed in outpointing Muncie, 25-23. Two teams which will bear watching--they have Been coming along fast after a slow start—are Logansport and Hagerstown. Lo-
