HLS. ‘Big Guns’ Fire Tonight; Shortridge Nips Lebanon As Continentals Triumph
Marion’s Giants to Invade Tech as Blue Devils Play Host to Crawfordsville
» iN. cq
e
Five engagements will prompt the high school basketball citizenry of Indianapolis to file into local gymnasiums tonight as all the city’s “big
guns’ see action.
Holding first place in the North Central Conference and rated by
some observers as a Marion’s invasion of Tech promises ning’s entertainment. In engagements last night four city teams made their backers happy with victories but three tasted defeat. Staging the standout attraction of the evening, the crippled Shortridge team went up to Lebanon and after getting off to a slow start, showed fire in the second and third quarters for a 26 to 24 victory. It was the seventh time the Blue Devils have captured the Tigers,
"who seem to be laboring under
somewhat of a jinx when it comes to Shortridge. . The local quintet scored pretty evenly. But Pat West and Chuck Benjamin got six points apiece to pace the winners. Forward Jack Alexander was the big gun in the Lebanon gffensive, dropping two field goals and six free throws for a 10-point total and scoring honors. A long goal by Dave Strack in the second period gave Shortridge the lead and the half ended with the Blue Devils in front, 14 to 13. Two field goals by Alexander in the final quarter sparked a spirited but unsuccessful rally. The summary: Shortridge (26),

Washington Tops Greensburg, 30-27
Gerrish and Howard led the Washington Continentals to their fourth South Central Conference victory last night at Greensburg, the locals winning, 20 to 27. Locke with 11 and Norwald with 10 paced the losers. The game was rough and ragged in spots. The “kill” was started in the third quarter when Gerrish found the range for four field goals after Washington had trailed at the half, 19 to 14. The summary: Greensburg, 27). FG FT PF

fact he worked like perpetual motion and always had something left to counter with when ycung Cummings, a southpaw, tried a rally. It was an eye-filling match the both boys won the acclaim of the fans. Goodwin won the decision.
Darrell Jones, Northeast Community Center, 160-pounder, decided he had something on the boys in the Novice class and tossed himself in with the Open gladiators and with. no holds barred. He drew Claude Dixon, Senate Avenue Y. M. C. A. as an opponent and tallied a knockout in the second round. Dixon was sent spinning three times in the first canto and a righthander to the jaw put him away in the next session. Jones used short, solid punches to emerge the winner. One of the highlights of the night's slamboree was the joust between Pete Shelby, Beech Grove 135-pound Novice, and Bill Sinclair of the Leeper Boxing School. It wsa an even-up affair most of the distance with rapid exchanges of blows in all rounds. : Both boys got bloody noses and the fighting was at high gear at all times. They left the ring showing the marks of a hard encounter, and since both battlers refused to give ground it was a difficult decision for the two judges and referee. Shelby got the nod, but only by a ¢thin margin. He had all he could handle in the straight punching Sinclair. The fourth Times-Legion show will be staged at the Armory next Friday night with action opening at 7:30. Reserved seat tickets, at $1, are on sale at Haag’s Claypool

VETERAN BURIAL |
ESTATE PLANS
Service Men’s Section At Glen Haven.
A Veterans’ Family Burial Estate is to be established in Glen Haven Memorial Park, Kessler Blvd., under a proposal of cemetery officials accepted by the Twelfth District American Legion. Acceptance of the proposal was voted by the district Legion after it was studied for a month by a committee of representatives of 10
posts. : One section of the cemetery is to be laid out in four-grave lots for burial of veterans and members of their families. Space is to be reserved near the center of the section for the erection of a memorial and flag pole.
Various Units to Meet *
During the initial drive of veterans organizations for the sale of lots, prices, including perpetual care, are to be placed at from- $130 to $250 a lot. .! Meetings are to be held with posts and auxiliaries and a Glen Haven representative is to show color films of the cemetery and explain the idea.’ During the part of the drive without regular salesmen, the salesman’s commission of 15 per cent, plus 5 per cent is to go to the credit of the Legion post making the sale. After this drive of 60 or 90 days the posts will get 5 per cent for a
year. Profits Estimated
Proponents estimate that the initial drive will put $10,800 in veterans organizations’ treasuries and there is possibility of them getting an additional $13,000 through sales by salesmen. . The chairman of the committee appointed by Raymond Grider, district commander, to study the plan was Lawrence Duckworth, commander of Madden-Nottingham Post. Committee members and their posts were Joe Speaks, Robert E. Kennington; Paul Ragsdale, Bruce Robison; Russel Furr, Big Eagle: Roy Pitcher, Broad Ripple; Joe Rand Beckett, Mackelvaine-Kothe: Neal Grider and Walter Myers, Indianapolis 4; Orville Denbow, Osric Mills Watkins; Charles V. Cross, Memorial, and Jesse T. Johnson, John Holliday.

Top game on the Marion County front was the Southport-Ben Davis tussle, which went to Southport, 3927. The Cards held a 15-12 edge at the half. Beech Grove downed Mooresville, 22 to 13, while New Winchester overwhelmed Speedway, 26 to 17.
