Really Rugged Cornhuskers Get That Way by Honest Toil

going to get the jump by addressing one to you.

Basketball, you can rest assured, hasen’t really changed much since you ‘saw it in March. The rulemakers have dabbled a little with the high school version of

this cage-y pastime but you'll recognize it as the roundball of 1939-40. Of course, we still have proposals to revise radically ‘the game, and the most novel came to us recently from Football Ccbach Robert Ball of Tech, who wears a whistle and a striped shirt during the coal-bill season. Mr. Ball was longing for the good old days and suggested that with the 10-second rule, the fast break and ail that, why not just play in half the customary floor space. “If it's action the fans want,” said, Mr. Ball, “they'd get it that way. Play now is only in half the floor, anyway. Why, you could shoet from out-of-bounds underneath one basket all the way to the other.” And maybe Mr. Ball's suggestion is something to-think about.

The College Picture

* SINCE UNITED PRESS guest writers are giving the morning line on the state high school teams, we thought we might devote today’s little effort to skimming the college surface. First, what do the coaches want most? ‘Well, Tony Hinkle out at Butler wants an opening game—that is something other than that gong-and-siren party with Indiana a week from Thursday. Tony would take on [just about anybody in a lid-lifter. The phone number is HU. 1349 if you want to discuss terms. That, incidentally, recalls a recent: story in| which Mr. Hinkle tried to get the goat of a young reporter. Tony, if seems, dropped the word that Butler had signed for an opener but told the reporter he wasn’t permitted to release the name of said team. Whereupon the enterprising newsgatherer tried to contact his usually reliable source for about an hour and a half. Meanwhile the Butler regulars, leaving practice, would come through the athletic office where the reporter was dialing away. “Who you opening against?” he would ask. | Each basketballer would glance around, then cautiously whisper: “Purdue.” The reporter nearly ‘went crazy before he learned he was’ being duped. No, it’ wasn't us.

He Wants to Be Alone

SECOND ON the gift list is Coach Branch Branch (doubletalk) McCracken - McCracken, who wants only to be left alone at Indiana. | Branch knows he’s on the spot, having the nation’s No. 1 team lof a year ago in his care, and i only makes matters

as much. If you want to start a miniature riot, drop in on him during breakfast and declare: “Say, Mac, I hear last year’s regu--lars won’t even make the team this season.” Then duck. If you want to send a present to Coach Piggy Lambert at Purdue, a big package of defense strength will be most appreciated. The Boilermakers who turned in a high-scoring performance as ‘they: won the undisputed Big Ten title last season, are expected to miss keenly the defensive services of Capt. Fred Beretta and Elwood Yeager, outstanding guards, and Dan Fisher, versatile jack of all trades. «ta . Lambert makes. no secret of the fact that losses by graduation and a general lack of height are apt: to hamper seriously the Boilermakers in rebound control and defense. ; EG

Hammond Tech Is Expected To Dominate Calumet Play

_By JOHN WHITAKER Written for the United Press HAMMOND, Ind. Dec. 2.—Hammond Technical-Vocational, with four holdovers from the “six man” Cinderella combination which whipped Mitchell for the state high school title last March in Butler Field House, ought to win the championship of the western division of the N. I. H. S. C. But Hammond Tech probably won’t win the title—unless Coach Louis Birket and his Tigers are still in a mood to set precedents—because the western division offers at least four other teams with -sufficient ability to grab a conference crown. Nine teams will be gunning for the champs. : Gary offers Lew Wallace, with four regulars returning from the 1939-40 combination which tied Washington of East Chicago. for the western - crown. ‘But quite a few coaches think Froebel and Horace Mann, also of Gary, will equal Lew Wallace. Hammond _ High, perennially strong in tournament play but never. too serious- about conference basketball titles, bounce back from last year’s ninth place finish with a potential champion. ; : These five teams rate highestsnow but Whiting and Washington of East Chicago could figure in the title race. Emerson of Gary, Valparaiso and Roosevelt of East Chicago are the three squads given no chance at all in a consensusy of coaching opinion, although Emerson, always possessed of good basket shooters, could again confound the experts. Competition is so keen in the Calumet that superiority of the conference champion often hinges on a half dozen properly located points. Nine of the 10 high schools are in the Hammond-Whiting-East Chicago zone, enabling coaches to “scout” the opposition in practically every game. : Hammond Tech, for instance, is

looked long and anxiously for a lad to replace Johnny Thomas, Negro floor guard, whose individual brilliance sparked the Tiger offense last year. He can start a combination averaging 6-1 but Birkett doubts if it will have sufficient defensive strength. ‘Expected to dominate individual play this year are Kramer and Shimala of Tech; Bob Livingstone and .Joe Sobek of Hammond High; Darage Minor, Froebel Negro ace who is rated by many as the ree gion’s No. 1 cager; r High scoring Whiting center; and Wally Smoljan, ward. : Each team in the western division plays 15 conference games. To get an.idea how close the race may be, you need a look at the 1939-40 standings which show that Hammond Tech's state champions won 9 games and lost six while averaging 32.5 points per game against 31 for the opposition.
