this season, and Englehardt likes

to speak of them as a “balanced

club,” .

- Englehardt invited us to sit in: on a Tiger practice session de-

voted mainly to shooting, foeling

your guard and under-the-basket tactics.

Ahout the only ‘thing Shrimp had to alibi for was the temperature of the gym, which, we believe, was about 0 go to a new low. The custodian, it seems, heard the practice was to end at 5 o'clock so he started dumping his fires about 2:30. Besides that, he had received several com-+ plaints during the sectional that the place was overheated and ap- - parently he didn’t want any Indianapolis visitor te make the same charge. We didn’t.

The place got so cold that Englehardt decided to get into a

scrimmage. You’ll- recall that ‘he How ‘em through for Marion and Wabash - before he started tutoring, We .ean say that he still’ knows his'way around

and might even make a regular -

hustle for his pesition if the 20year law were repealed. Principal C. O. Griffith stopped in during the practice, and like all- principals at this season, he has ticket troubles. Greenfield al-~ ready has received 518 tickets and those went on sdle this morning. Mr. Griffith isn’t .sure how many more he. could use, but he looks for business to pick up along about Friday, when the bug really begins to bite the fans. EJ ¥ 8

“HOW DO THE Pigers look to you?” we asked. Without answering he shot back: “How does Shortridge look to you?” That's what you have

It was Clyde Sutton, Greenfield's track coach and assistant basketball instructor. Sutton does considerable whistle-tooting around the state: and appears to have a good eye for good basket= ball teams. Naturally, the talk centered on basketball, and we ‘got around: to the current situation, with its scarcity of favorites and chances for a wide open. race. Then, out of a blue sky, he remarked: “The team I like is Washington. I really believe the Hatehets will go as far as any of them.” That's what he said, no fooling, and without even a hint from us.
