DOUBLE BILL ON SPORTS FRONT
” 2 ®
BASE HITS AND GLOVE TOSSING
T was a double-header on the Indianapolis sports front last night—base hits to leather throwing. . . . First,
the baseball frolic at the Claypool, then the Golden Gloves
at the Armory. Both were grand shows and went over the top in a big way, and®with cheers. . . . That diamond powwow was a dandy and all present hope it is repeated next year. . . . Leo T. Miller, new president of the Indians, and Ray Schalk, manager, wore wide smiles after the session
"and remarked that for the first time they felt really at
~
home in Indianapolis. - Ford Frick, the Hoosier prexy of the National League, filled a double engagement. . . . He made talks at two meetings, the baseball Centennial-Testimonial and also before a DePauw alumni session. . . . He said, “I went into hard training for this visit and I'll take it in stride, Rah, rah, Tiger.” * ” os ” 2 s 2 TOMMY THEVENOW came up from Madison and did a lot of handshaking. . . . One of the heroes of the 1926 World Series, the veteran infielder is a free agent now after serving several clubs. . . . He played all seven games in the. fall classic of 1926 and batted .417 by unloading 10 blows in 24 times at the dish. . . . And his Cardinals defeated the New York Yankees four games to three.
It was chiefly American Association and National League chatter until Harry Geisel, the “Man from Home,” waltzed into the picture. . The veteran American League umpire revealed a box score of the first big league game in which he officiated and Ray Schalk’s name was there in the lineup. It was a battle between the White Sox and Tigers and showed Schalk with no hits but one run scored. ... And the Cracker said, “I think I remember it well. The next day I powdered that horsehide.” ® 8 w “= 82 8 = Geozcs TRAUTMAN, the A. A. chief, said the league probably will go along with the majors and restore the sacrifice fly rule. . . .. The American Association baseball writers voted against it, and now that they have expressed their opinion, Mr. Trautman said he _ believed they would take another vote and restore the sacrifice fly under protest. The A. A. leader pointed out that league statisticians, scouts and
sau Others who keep hooks on batting averages would be put to so much
extra work with no sacrifice fly in the league that he thought it wise to place it in the scoring rules. “I got a hunch theyll, knock it out again in the majors in 1940,” Mr. Trautman concluded.
ogee oe Williams=— SEBRING, Fla., Feb. 18—When Ban B. Johnson hired Will Harridge out of a Chicago railroad office nearly 30 years ago he had no way of knowing, of course, he was hiring a man who ultimately would carry on his doctrine and traditions as American League president. Harridge came into the American League office as Johnson's personal secretary. He was to have no formal or official connection with the league until Johnson resigned, or rather, was compelled to resign
by the club owners in July, 1927. By this time Johnson was badly broken in health and his living days were numbered. At the July meeting when his resignation was effected he swooned and fell to the floor in semiconsciousness. Harridge was still his personal secretary. He helped assist the old: gentleman who had fcrmed the American League out of the conference room. 2 8 = 2 2 =
EVIVED, Johnson sat on a lounge in the hotel lobby. Harridge sat at his side. “It looks as if I'm through,” Johnson said. Harridge nodded. “And I guess t. means you're through, too,” he added. Harridge agreed. While they were gitting there a page boy approached Harridge. “They want you in the-conference room,” he said. Johnson motioned for him to go. When Harridge appeared in the conference room the club owners said they wanted him te take the minutes of the meeting, and when the meeting was over they named him secretary of the league. To all practical intents and purposes: he had been the secretary for years. The next day Johnson read about the appointment in the news‘papers and he sent a laborer to the league offices with instructions to remove Harridge's desk, typewriter and kindred equipment. He was ~ angry because the cliib owners had®named him secretary, This was _ his childish way of venting. his: spleen. ‘

Smashing all records in attendance and receipts, the seventh annual Times-Legion Golden Gloves tourrament came to a thrill-packed conclusion at the Armory last night before more than 3200 fisticgoers. It was an exceptional carnival of leather throwing but still was short of the third show on Feb.|3, which regular Golden Gloves goers: believe was tops over all since The Times and Bruce P. Robinson Post of the American Legion got together and introduced the amateur boxing classic in Indianapolis in 1933. | Eighteen bouts and one default completed the final program and as Ford Frick, president of the National Baseball League remarked before the diamond powwow earlier in the evening at the Claypool Hotel, “give me Golden Gloves for my fistic entertainment any time. You get more action for your money than anything. that Madison Square Garden turns out.” Highlight of the night’s warfare was the open flyweight clash between Bill Cummings and Dick Miller. The 112-pound lads really turned it on in each of the three rounds and they came down to the final bell toe-to-toe. It was a close decision, but Cummings got' the nod because he was a bit more ring-wise and had less misses | than his aggressive adversary. The big crowd roared as the lads flew at bang fashion and there wasn't a dull moment the full distance. The fans sensed that this encounter was destined to be one for the books and the little fellows certainly delivered. The Northeast Community Center, Bess A. C. and the Leeper Boxing School split even in team honors by winning two open bouts apiece. McNight A. C. scored with one and the Boyce A. C. also chalked one. Going to Chicago The winners in the open class will represent Indianapolis in the Tournament of Champions at Chicago, Feb. 27, 28 and March 1 and will be given a four-day stay in the Windy City. They will leave here
tertained at a league hockey match or at a show that night.
The Golden Gloves amateur boxing shows are sponsored by The Ipdianapolis Times in conjunction with the Bruce P. Robison Post of the American Legion. * Forty per cent of the net receipts go directly to The Times’ Clothe-A-Child campaign. Sixty per cent is used for Legion philanthropies.
Mi'ton Bess, the international Golden Gloves lightweight king, was given a rousing fight by James
. |Sherron of the Boyce A. C. and had
to step lively to finish out in front. Milton turned it on when pressed and earned the trip to Chicago by landing the sharper punches. Sherron dashed into the conflict unafraid and made a good go of it for the three stanzas.
M. C. A, scored the record knockout of the evening when he polished off ‘Preston Taylor, unattached, in 20 seconds of the first round. Johnson charged, threw lefts and rights and one, a righthander, caught Taylor «flush on the chin and flattened him. { Referee Says “Nix”
Taylor got his legs back at the count of 10 but was so. dazed the referee called it off. Heavyweight Eric Stone, last year’s champion, put John Hartledge on the floor in the second! round with a blow to the chin and one to the solar plexus. Hartledge was dragged to his corner as the bell sounded, but was unable to continue. It required more than the allotted time between rounds to revive him. Willard Reed of the Northeast Community Center, took down a close verdict over Claude Banks, Bess A. C, in the open middleweight finals. It ‘was another crowd-pleaser and a hard-punch-ing battle the full distanee. . _ The Bud y Dycus ©

«.|Big Ten Basketball Leaders
In Tough One Tonight.
By United Press
Northwestern's rugged Wildcats and the influenza epidemic team up against Indiana tonight, figuring the two of them can put the Hustling Hoosiers into low gear in their drive toward the Big Ten baskets ball championship. Anyone who's had the fiu this week—or you can ask your next door neighbor—knows those three ailing Indiana boys won’t feel like playing much basketball at Bloomington tonight even to defend their undisputed lead. If they do, the Hoosiers will step out with a ‘smart lead of seven victories in eight games and maintain an unchallenged position at the head of the standings. Purdue, another currently hot tegm, plays at Wisconsin and Michigan comes to Chicago to see what can be done about pushing the Maroons deeper into their usual hole in the cellar. Unless illness reports have been exaggerated, the ‘league leaders can expect a rough evening from Northwestern. Early in the _week, Capt. Ernie Andres, leading “Hoosier scorer and a real show on. any basketball court, came down with an ailment. Hi was followed by Bob Dro and Paul Armstrong, two sophomore fore wards, who have had a lot to do with Indiana’s six-game spurt.
Chicago Drops a Hint
In addition, the Wildcats may take. a hint from Chicago’s zone defense which caused Indiana considerable trouble until the Hoosiers began to hit their long shots midway through the second period of their game last week. Other games tonight: Purdue at Wisconsin—Purdue right now is the surprise of the Big Ten. After a slow start, the defending champions have mcved up into third place with a four and two rating. With Capt. Gene Ane derson moved to forward and big Forest Weber at center, the Boil. ermakers have been unbeatable. Wisconsin is handicapped by the ineligibility of Johnny Rundell, a guard. Iowa at Ohio ‘State—At no time this year has Iowa been able to cope with two clever scorers like John Shiek and Capt. Jim Hull of Ohio te Michigan at Chicago—This is the first second division team Chicago has met for weeks and even Micheigan. probably has too much strength.
