Huntingburg Remains Lone .. Major Unbeaten Five ~~ In Indiana.
& . ‘By United Press If you keep a form sheet on Indiana high school basketball, keep a sharp and weather eye on the nu-
merous games to be played tonight |™
and tomorrow night. > Surpises are being handed out frond ‘one end of the state to’ the Qiiter as the scent of tournament ‘grows stronger and some of the

+ Kicking up a fuss that must be taken
into consideration by students of |" form.
: A week ago today there were three major, undefeated teams in the state. Now the select class has been whacked down to a lone survivor— Huntington. And those boys wearing ‘the’ long faces, if you failed to recognize them, are South Bend Central and mighty Jeffersonville.
£ © Battle Mishawaka -
‘The Central team’ was toppled from the undefeated ranks last Saturday by Emerson Gary after wining 14 in a row. And tonight the Bears will pounce upon Mishawaka, an ancient rival, for their only game of the week. Johnny Wooden's club —while beaten once—must be considered as one of the powers of the north. They probably will prove it tonight against Mishawaka. ‘ Jeffersonville clung to its winning streak through 15 hard games but was stopped in a surprise game Wednesday night by an arch-rival, New Albany, 35 to 28. And the Red Devils were on their way northward today to meet a triple-charged Hammond team tonight, bringing hundreds of followers along to snap them out of their lethargy. The Jeffs played so poorly against New Albany, according to reports, they are due for another lacing unless they snap out of it against Hammond. Reclining atop the pedestal of invincibility, Huntingburg probably will remain in its lofty spot through the remainder of the season. The only game this week for the Happy Hunters is against Petersburg and the remainder of their schedule is comprised. of teams that could hardly be expected to turn in an upset. . Archers Deserve Watching
One of the big teams to watch this week-end is the state champion South Side Archers of Ft. Wayne. Beaten only twice tnis year, the Archers have done a good job in protecting their laurels. But they will get the “works” in a game tonight with their gity rival,- Ft. Wayne North, and tomorow night will receive)similar treatment from Kokomo. The Wildcats of Kokomo failed to pick an easy one in preparation’ for the champions. They face the tough Anderson Indians tonight. Frankfort journeys to Richmond tonight for its second game of the week. The Richmond club is a good example of a team which has moved
along slowly at the start of the sea-|.
son and gradually stepped up its play to a point where it can move with the fastest company. Victories Over New Castle and Kokomo made the Richmond gause look excellent, despite the fact that the Morton boys were jabbed during the season by: little Hagerstown. Another of tonight’s games which will be watched closely is the Mun-cie-New Castle engagement at New Castle. Form students also will have their eyes on Nappanee at Elkhart, Shortridge of Indianapolis at Crawfordsville, Logansport at Jefferson of Lafayette and Bedford at Franklin. Crawfordsville is a team with a long string of victories and is improving with each game.

Butler’s Basketball Team Tackles DePaul Five At Chicago.
TONIGHT’S GAMES Butler at Chicago De Paul. Indiana State at Indiana Central. Indiana at Xavier. : Illinois at Notre Dame. Earlham at Rose Poly. Anderson at Hanover. Manchester at Huntington. Ball State at Western State. Taylor at Giffin.
Coach Tony Hinkle and 14 members of the Butler basketball squad left this morning by train for Chicago . where the locals and DePaul will battle tonight at the Coliseum. The game tonight will be part of a double-header, with Loyola of Chicago and City College of New York rgeeting in the other conest. Butler's quintet will return home tomorrow morning and rest for its Indiana Conference game with Franklin College tomorrow night at the Fieldhouse. The DePaul tilt tonight will mark Butler’s 10th venture into nonconference territory where the Bulldogs have lost six games this season. In the state loop, however, the Bulldogs are pacing the field with three victories. One mutual opponent met by both Butler and DePaul has been Iowa whom Butler edged out, 31 to 29. The Hawkeyes lost a close decision to DePaul two days later. Coach Hinkle selected his traveling team yesterday after he had conducted a short drill and had given special instruction to his starting five of Jerry Steiner and Bob Dietz, forwards; George Perry, center ,and Lyle Nea! and Bill Geyer, guards. Other team members are Bill Hamilton, George Knobel, Harold Braden, Laurel - Poland, Melvin Vandermeer, Byron Gunn, Chester Jaggers, Jim McCray and Charles Richardson.
Xavier May Slow
Speedy Hoosiers
BLOOMINGTON, Feb. 3.—Indiana University’s driving basketball five will meet Xavier at Cincinnati tonight in the final non-Confer-ence game on the schedule. Following the Xavier game, Indiana will play eight straight Big Ten games, starting with the Ohio State return game here next Monday. Xavier has a record of seven viectories in 10 starts, showing latent power, but flashing an inconsistent offense. Xavier, in losing only to Washington and Lee, DePaul and Wisconsin, has demonstrated a rugged, tight defense that is apt to halt Indiana’s slashing speed under the basket. Indiana's probable starting lineup will be Bob Dro and Tom Motter, forwards; Bill Menke, center. and Capt. Ernest Andres and Marvin Huffman, guards. > : Bill Johnson, veteran forward, will be unable to make the trip, owing to a recurrence of an old injury.

Blue in Double Feature; Warriors Gain Revenge
Central Normal Turns Back Oakland ‘City Quintet; Tri-State Wins.
By United Press Central Normal avenged a previous defeat this season by Oakland City College when it ran wild to win, 50 to 27, in a game at Danville last night. The Warriors assumed the lead soon after the start of the game and held it throughout. It was their fifth conference win in eight starts. At the half the score stood 32-14. and substitutes carried Central to victory in the last half. / Central will face Earlham in a game at Danville Saturday night. Tri-State players slipped a victory by Cleary College quintet, 42 to 40, in a tilt at Angola last night. It was anybody’s ball game until the last 20 seconds of the tilt when Gamber sank two field goals for TriState. Cleary held a 24-17 margin at mid-point.
Sycamores Invade Greyhound Gym
Coach Glenn Curtis will bring his Indiana State basketball team to University Heights tonight for its first game of the season with the Greyhounds of Indiana Central. : Last year the local quintet defeated the Sycamores in both games played. Probable starting lineup for the Greyhounds is Potter, Bohr, forwards; = Godwin, center and Sharpe and Bloomingdale, guards.
Illini Quintet to Oppose Irish
NOTRE DAME, Feb. 3.—A Notre Dame basketball team which lost three of its first six games and came back to win seveu straight will risk this streak against the Big 10 defending cochampions from Illinois here tonight. Coach George Keogan believes the Illini, the only team this year to match Notre Dame’s speed, will provide the sternest opposition met thus far. One of the season’s most colorful garnes should result when the small, speedy Illini and Irish tangle. Bbth are amazingly adept at ball-han-dling and deception and both resort
able. Coach Keogan will start his usual
die Sadowski at forwards; Mark Ertel at center, and Capt. Earl Brown and ‘Paul DuCharme at guards. DuCharme, a made-over forward, is second in scoring, and he ‘might win a “most valuable” player vote at this point. Ertel turned in his best game against

Emancipation For Baseball
Award to Bill Klem Marks Change in Attitude Toward Them.
BY DANIEL Times Special Writer
(Pinch-hitting for Joe Williams)
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.—On Sunday night, at their 16th annual dinner, in presence of some 800 witnesses, the baseball writers of New York, unabashed and right out in the open, will pay homage to an umpire. To William Joseph Klem, who will be 65 on Feb. 22 and is about to start his 35th season in the National League, they will present the distinguished service award. This is given each February for outstanding contributions to baseball over a long period of years. No other member of the tribe of diamond pharissees ever has been so honored by the scribes. In fact, with the tossing of a silver plaque to Klem, the writers will celebrate
i | the official emancipation of the
umpires from their self-imposed disadvantages as social untouchables. For more than half a century the
i men of honest error accepted the
status of lost souls enveloped in the
anathema of players, writers and
fans. Throw Off Shackles
ut with the passing of years and the development of a saner attitude, particularly by Will Harridge and Ford Frick, Klem, Dolly Stark, Harry Geisel, Red Ormsby and their associates-in-guessing have thrown off the silly. old shackles of silence and hermitage. Thus the award to Klem comes as a sort of emancipation proclamation for the entire tribe of umpires, good and bad. : For Klem himself, the plaque will be a too-long deferred recognition
all-time umpire. Players often have been irked by Bill's alleged autocracy, which in reality is merely an unwillingness to stand for nonsense. Writers for years have joshed Bill about his. insistence that he never made a wrong decision. But he explained that to me recently in this way: ; «1f I knew a decision to be wrong I would not make it—not for all the men and all the money in the world. Therefore called one wrong.”
