EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 29.
the far-stretched confines of the Southern Indiana Athletic
Conference, the S. L A, C, as. Way. «w-Marion Crawley, Washing’s .bopular coach, thought e had one for the books last March when he approached Trester tournaments with
one of the classiest cage out-
fis since the golden days at Washn. But the Crawley craft prung a leak on the tourney trip and Washington fans returned to Daviess County to await the coming of the new season. * And now they’re linked solidly bend Crawley and his Hatchets 2 ain as they wade into the depths I the current basketball season. e¢ Hatchets won the SIAC, crown last year in a nip and tuck fnish with the Alices of old Vincennes. °
What More Could You Ask?
>*Mark Wakefield, Central High School's veteran mentor, thinks Washington is the team to watch in the conference and in the basketball “finale in March. “They have size and experience,” said Wakefield, who seems pretty. well fixed along the same lines in his own bailwick. |’ #+« Washington lost Klier, Arnold and Brunner by graduétion but returnIng are Mangin, a hook shot artist; ,Grove, Riffey, a big boy who will work into Arnold’s old post; DeJernett, third of the DeJernett family « of basketball players; Winninger, a “capable reserve last year, and Charles and Bill Harmon, who will be tough. “Washington, playing nine conference games, is away to a good start. ~¥incennes again will be a conder. Coach Woody Weir has six etfermen returning and expects to have them under full power within a:week or two. «The Alices tripped Bicknell, 29 to 22: in dedicating a new gym and a gew coach at Bicknell. The Bulldogs finished a dismal football season and hope to see their basketball eharges develop: as the season goes ‘along. Matthew Walker is the new ch.

Bloomington has five veterans back from last’ year’s aggregation and will be a big noise in the conference play. : . Princeton, under Earl Downey, won 16 games last.-year:and had one of the best Princeton teams in years. Downey has six from last year's crew returning along with plenty of
spring some surprises. : With the single exception of Central, Evansville has little to look forward to in basketball. Reitz was riddled by graduation and an Ohie River “tragedy ‘claimed the life -of Harry Mortis, the only experienced player left. Tom Rea, Reitz coach, is singing them long and loudly. - Harry King, at Bosse, was riddled by graduation and a football injury
man. King, a lieutenant in the National Guard, expects to leave here Jan. 15 and Arad McCutchan, former Evansville College star, will take over. McCutchan is his assistant. Wakefield, at Central, won the city and sectional honors last year and is back again with what looks like his best team in several years. He lost three key men by graduation but has enough of a nucleus around which to work in his new men. They will be big, rough and ready. Wakefield, usually a dour individual when it comes to discussing his ball clubs, is rather radiant. But he still insists “we’ll have to stop Washington.”
Letters Given Continentals
Members of the Washington High School football teams’ and crosscountry squad were honored at a fall athletic banquet given by the Mothers’ Club of the school last night. Principal speakers were Walter Gingery, principal; Tony Hinkle, Butler TU. athletic director, and coaches of the various Continental teams. Danny Roth, captain of the 1940 grid varsity, was voted as the most valuable player. The Continentals will be captained by Louis Condon next year. Awards were:

Capitals Rout Red Menace
(Continued on Page 31)
Kilrea and Cecil Dillon took over to defend the goal against Babe Tapin, Jack Shill, Bucko McDonald, Art Giroux and Hal Jackson. A couple of mad rushes was the best the Reds could do before Thomson was back in service. Shortly after that Buck Jones, one of the evening's most willing hands, stepped into a Providence play at midice and found himself in the clear with Bucko McDonald and Jackson chasing him. Buck’s beau-|g sl shot gave the Caps a two-goal ead. In less than a minute Providence|i had one on a dive-bombing attack on Franks. Normie Mann fired it in and nearly had another the same way on the next assault. After that, the Caps went into a Hoosier basketball stall until the gun came. The injury struck the Caps. for the first time last night. Connie Brown, middle man in the Fisher-Brown-McDonald line, upset himself going down-ice, wrenched a knee and took a bad bump on the head. The doc wouldn’t say whether Connie could play against Pittsburgh Sunday night. The summary:

DETROIT, Nov. 20 (U. P.).—The Detroit Lions today were in the market for their third coach in as
showing in a comeback ' attempt, has signed to coach the Grand Rapids University football team next year. Owner Pred L. Mandel Jr. of the Lions said he wanted an experienced man to. replace Clark and indicated that he might not make a choice for some time, He plans to consider nearly a dozen coaches having college or professional football experience. ‘Charles (Gus) Doralis, said to be Mandel’s first choice for the job, probably would not leave the University of Detroit. Harry Newman and Benny Friedman, former Michigan quarterbacks ,were thought ruled out of consideration because of lack of wide experience, “I may not-sign a new coach until as late as next summer,” Mandel said,
Coli Punches
For Title F ight
NEW YORK, Nov. 20 (U. P).— Billy Conn, the Pittsburgh Fancy Dan, confronts the highest, hardest hurdle in his path toward a bout
with Joe Louis when he meets Lee Savold in Madison Square Garden tonight. The distance is 12 rounds, and Conn’s light heavyweight championship will not be ‘at stake because Savold is a full-fledged heavyweight —something Billy would like to be. Conn is a 5 to 1 favorite, but this price seems considerably out of line, for while Conn is the neatest boxer among the big boys, Safold has a few arguments on his side. Despite the fact that he is a sort of Mr. X—the unknown quantity— in eastern rings, his record shows that he is a hard, accurate puncher. Some of the fighters he has knocked out recently never will set the world afire, but Savold’s string of knockouts—17 in the last 22 fights—testifiles to the kick he carries in his leather mittens. Conn will be rather badly outweighed—185 to 178 or maybe 175. Since he began campaigning among the heavyweights he has not run into anybody who could hit as hard and fast as Savold.
Greyhounds Show They Have Class
Times Special PLYMOUTH, Ind, Nov. 29.— Northern Indians alumni of Indiana Central College should. be convinced today of the strength of the Greyhound basketball team.
