THE WHEEL has spun around again to the basketball season. In every hamlet and city in this sovereign State, they're firing away at baskets in practice and in earnest. Football heimets have been packed &way at the colleges and universities, and every campus is full of hope. An old bromide tells us that the play is the thing. But that applies

gang. but keep em short. = = = A HOOSIER basketball season that doesn't develop a team of “giant killers” from some little berg that the train callers have forgotten, would be like a picnic without red ants. It wouldn't be natural. No telling where the lightning Will hit this time, but probably not in the same place. The Bears from Ossian were the big surprise boys last spring, when they went to the semi-final tournament. Their coach, Clare Holley, has moved over to Peru this season. It is still too early to see whether he can transplant his magic to a new location in one season. The Peru team has wobbled a bit thus far, but it is learning a new system, and may be hot when it gets integrated

As for Ossian, tloesn’t look particularly bright. There is only one regular back. Meanwhile, the team which Coach Holley led to several great wins in 1938 and '39 has formed itself into &n independent squad known as the Ossian Ex-Bears Its lineup is composed of graduates and includes Hoover, Bell, Yager, Wilsecn and Beerman with Lipp, Richey and Underhill in reserve.

its net future

ACCORDING TO the Bloomington Telephone, there is one team in this State which is confronted with a nickname problem. It is the Indiana University Laboratory School. This school was organized primarily to give Indiana University students actual experience in teaching. This spring the team in the high school division, which is coached by Frank Overton, is to enter the sectional tournament Although nameless, Coach Overton’s charges aren't colorless. They are clad in red and white, showing that they are the little cousins of 1. U’s Cream and Crimson These boys are to be hosts tomorrow night to the Smithville Skibos. But the nickname thing has to be solved suddenly. Imagine a yell leader asking wild-eved fans for a loud: “Yea! University Laboratory Bchool, Fight! Fight! Fight!”

THEY SAY some schools are planning to decorate the ceiling of their gyms with poison ivy when Auburn comes over for a game. Dennije McDarby, the Auburn center, is a Junior and six and a half feet tall. He doesn’t wear two left shoes either, and handles himself very well. The Auburn Red Devils made it to the semi-finals last spring.

lad tall enough to bite the basket rim without standing on tip-toes. This year he has Harry Baker, a junior, who stands a mere 6 feet 93; inches. Jolly believes Baker is the tallest player in the State, and no one has given him any arguments. The rest of the team is tall, too.

Clubs Despite Deadlock; Deacon Leaves.

The Indianapolis Capitals were | off today for a swing through the East, but they were not particularly | pleased over the 1-1 tie overtime game they played with the Syra-| cuse Stars before 4281 hockey fans at the Coliseum here last night. Gaining one point in the standing by virtue of this draw, the Caps still head the parade in the Western Division of the InternationalAmerican League, but they want to make their position more secure before they return Dec. 14 for their next home game against the Cleveland Barons. The Caps are to play at Springfield tomorrow night and at Providence Sunday night. Before they come back to the Coliseum’s frozen floor they also will have played tilts with Hershey, Philadelphia and New Haven.

Here and Gone

Don Deacon and Sid Abel came down from Detroit for last night's game and gave a nice account of themselves on the ice. Both, however, went back to the Motor City after the game. Deacon was called back to the Red Wings, while Abel is expected to rejoin the Capitals at Springfield tomorrow. Whether Deacon will get back in a Capital uniform is still doubtful. The Red Wings also are victims of an injury jinx and need the rugged icer right now to fill one of the gaps. The Syracuse team that took the ice against the Capitals last night was a lot sadder and wiser outfit than the one which the Caps downed, 5-1, In a previous meeting.

shots. But the Stars back-checking tactics caused the Caps plenty of trouble. They had difficulty all evening getting into the attacking zone, or taking a shot after they did arrive. Syracuse's goal came in the first period when the Caps were short handed. Eddie Bush, Indianapolis defense man, had just been sent to the penalty box for tripping, when Norm DLecking drilled one past Franks. He was assisted by Jack Markle and Maxie Bennett.

Motter Lights Beacon Alex Motter, Caps’ right defense, lit the lone red beacon for Indianapolis in the second period. He hit from almost directly in front of the cage and was assisted by Bill Thomson. The Stars were at full strength at the time. Later in this same period, Tiny Teasdale, Stars’ defense, drew a two-minute penalty for tripping, but Beveridge staved off the Capitals’ thrusts. The third period was a standoff. The 10-minute overtime, the first ever played here, was a wild stick swinging affair. Jack Toupin, Syracuse center, was sent off the ice for two minutes for holding, but again Indianapolis power plays fizzled. Just before the overtime ended, Archie Wilder, Capitals’ winger, was penalized for tripping, but Syracuse didn't try to capitalize. The Stars figured that half a loaf was better than none and made only a feeble offensive gesture. The summary: Indianapolis

Layden Looks for Bowl Hopefuls to Win Games

By ELMER LAYDEN Notre Dame Football Coach SOUTH BEND, Ind, Dec. 1— This week-end’s intercollegiate football schedule is light but important. Besides natural rivalries still to be settled, there are undefeated records at stake, and Bowl ambitions to be advanced or retarded. Tulane, Southern California and Duquesne, for example, are all playing teams capable of upsetting New Year hopes. Tied-once Tulane looks like a certainty for one of the Southern bowls, with L. 8S. U. the last hurdle. Undefeated, untied Duquesne is another hot bowl prospect. I don't believe they will, but Gus Dorais’ Detroit Titans are resourceful enough to thwart the Dukes. Howard Jones has reason to fear the Washington Huskies in spite of the Trojans’ marked superiority on the record and in manpower. The Huskies have long held the Indian sign over U. S. C. Jim Phelan’s lads are all set to upset the Jones boys once again — history has taught them no respect for odds in this game, Still, I don't see how the Indian sign can prevail over U. 8. C.s everything this year. The Trojans are too good. Boston College, once beaten, is coached by Frank Leahy of Notre

As Dodger Coach

NEW YORK, Dec. 1 (U. P.) —The Brooklyn Dodgers’ professional football club of the National League was looking for a new coach today to succeed George (Potsy) Clark, who resigned. Clark explained that “to clear the way for a new policy contemplated by the Dodgers,” his resignation would take effect immediately although his three-year contract expires Jan. 1. He has no plans for the future. This was his ninth year of coaching in the National League, but the Dodgers had a drab season, winning

| four, losing six and tying one.

Clark was quarterback of Bob Zuppke’s great 1914-15 teams at Illinois and coached at Butler and Kansas Universities before entering the professional game.

Cornell Chosen for Lambert Grid Trophy

NEW YORK, Dec. 1 (U. P.) —The Lambert Memorial Trophy, given each year to the outstanding Eastern college football team. was awarded to unbeaten Cornell today. Fifty-three football writers, sports columnists and radio commentators voted in the annual poll. Carnegie Tech won the trophy last season.

Dame, ex-line coach of Fordham now in his first year as head man. Holy Cross, once beaten, is coached by Joe Sheeketski, also of Notre Dame, ex-backfield coach at Holy Cross also head coaching for the first time. Holy Cross has the edge.

In spite of two defeats (17-14 by Notre Dame, 7-6 by Duke) Georgia Tech would make it interesting for most bowl contenders. Georgia shouldn't worry the colorful Hornets this week.

Other games: Saylor*-Rice. S. M. UXT. C. U. Fordham*:-N. Y. U. Army looked a bit stronger against us, but it should be a thriller by land and sea when soldiers and sailors meet.
