Pace Gets Hot
in State High
Cage Race as Leaders Falter
By UNITED PRESS The pace is getting hotter, the tempo swifter, as Indiana high school hoopsters barge into another week of heavy firing. As g result of last week’s acid action, the sole surviving major unbeaten team, Hammond Tech, was swept off its pinnacle by Muncie Burris. It’s not very often that one of the larger teams, no matter how powerful, can go through the blistering Hoosier prep race and reach the state tournaments unscathed. Tech was no exception. It’s fine team is likely to be even tougher after the leavening influence of a defeat. All major conference leaders clung to their positions last week, although at yleast Vincennes had a narrow squeak, losing to Washington. Its SIAC supremacy was salvaged only when the No. 2 contender, Evansville Central, also took a jolt. '
. The Conference Picture
With the opening of a new week the conference picture looked like
Anderson has clinched the North Central title, Columbus is leading the South Central, Muncie Burris the Central, Madison the Southeastern, Vincennes the Southern, Blufiton the Northeastern, Hammond Tech the Western NIHSC and South Bend Central the Eastern NIHSC, Firing gets underway tomorrow as Elwood, strong contender in "the Central league, forages outside its territory in engaging the Frankfort Hotdogs. Elsewhere Elkhart invades Ft. Wayne Central, Huntingburg plays at Vincennes, South Bend Central and Riley clash, and Mitchell's Blue Jackets travel to Martinsville. : Hammond Tech, incidentally, should be in rare form for its battle with Gary Froebel Thursday.
Anderson Is Favorite

Keeping in mind Kokomo’s sad away-from-home record, the Indians should win, although it seems they ought to be: due to falter. : . : Evansville Central invades Bloomington, giving it a chance to slide into the Southern lead while Vincennes is involved in non-confer-ence battles.

‘Wabash Blues’ Is Butler Tune
Butler = University’s basketeers, having completed their mid-season Eastern swing and a two-game series with Olio State, will return to Indiana Cdnference competition tomorrow night against Wabesh'’s Little Giants «at Crawfordsville. From the record, this one looks easy for Butler, but as a matter of fact, Wabash is never easy ior Butler. The Bulldogs had to pull a pair from the fire in the second half last year, and it’s likely to be the same stor in the Crawfordsville ficldhousi tomorrow evening. The Little Ctiant backers alvays hoot, starnp arid cause general confusion ‘when tiie Bulldogs are visitors, with the ripsult that these Eulldogs are annofed no end. Wabash has a season recorc to date of six viglories and six losses, and its losses are marked down to DePauw, Notre Dame, Purdue, Iowa, Northwestern ¢ind Oakland City. The Butler game Saturday night was strictly a rout as the Bulldogs swamped the Buckeyes, 52 to 30. The Hinklemer started with a fiash and Ohio Stale never caught up. The score was|29-10, in favor of the Butlers, at the half. Although the Butler offense bogged a bit ii} the second half, the work of Cente! Bill Hamilton, with 11 points, and of Capt.

Tackles Illinois After Stopping Fireball Five
I. U. Also Under Pressure Faces Bucks
TONIGHT'S GAMES -Ohio State vs. Indiana a’ Bloom-
"lington. .
Illinois vs. Purdue at Lafdyette. Chicago vs. Iowa at Iowa City.
’ By STEVE SNIDER United Press Staft Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. 3-—-Furdie, hanging grimly to its Big Ten basketball title, makes anothe: bacik-fo-the-wall defense tonight against crippled Illinois.
Almost out of the race with two defeats already, tne champions twice refused to quit under pressure Saturday night and upset heavilyfavored Indiana, 40 fo 36. This unexpected reverse dropped the previously undefeated Hoosiers into a second place jie with Ijlinois and, temporarily at. least, boosted Wisconsin into an undisputed lead.
I. U. Under Pressure
Regarded as heac and shoulders above the field since the first weeks of the season, Indians now has a fight on its hands and starts its comeback against Ohio (State at Bloomington. Chicago travels to Iowa for the only other Conference game on the schedule. Although Illinois is one of two Big Ten teams with decisions over the champions, Purdue is no worse than an even choice — probably a favorite at Lafayette—to avenge the early defeat. Ineligibility of Walter (Hoot) Evers, leading Illinois scorer, and general handyman Henry Sachs puts a crimp in the Illini attack, In addition, Coach Piggy Lambert's boys are almost unbeatable at home—especially against Illinois. Indiana, too, was crippled against the Boilermakers. Playing without Paul Armstrong, a valuable scorer for three years, Indiana lacked the punch in the pinches. At the start, the Hoosiers threatened to make it a runaway and streiched a sizeable lead to 17 to 7
Purdue Speeds Up:
At that point, Purdue pulled itself together and, with a rush typical of Roilermaker teams, swarmed all over the floor, blanketing Indiana and shooting to perfection. Halftime found Purdue in front, 24 to 19. Indiana tied it late in the second period at 34, but four points by Forrest Sprowl and two more by Don Blanken, who had been knocked out earlier in a drive under the basket, ended the rally. On form, Indiana shouldn't have much trouble from Ohio State’s sagging Bucks. During the early stages, Ohio State held an undisputed lead ir the standings, but successive defeats by Wisconsin and Minnesota, and Saturday night’s non-confereace drubbing by Butler, 50 to 32, indicated the Bucks have run out of steam. It was Ohio State’s second loss to Butler. » Iowa, victor over Millikin, 46 to 27, expects to improve its position against Chicago, only team in the league still looking for that first] victory. Iowa, along with Wisconsin, Indiana, and Illinois, has lost only one game.,

Homeless Caps
Go to Muncie
Since the Coliseum ice belongs to Sonja Henie until late tomorrow night, Herbie Lewis had to take his hockey Capitals to Muncie today to get them in key for their encounter with Buffalo here Wednesday. “But we expect to get the Coliseum back on a hockey basis after Wednesday,” Herbie announced as he and his boys went some 60 miles to the nearest frozen floor. Over the week-end the Caps intrenched themselves in third place and appear to be out of the reach of Pittsburgh and Buffalo for some time, anyway. The Caps have a five-point lead over the Hornets and a nine-point advantage over Buffalo. It was a fluke goal by Ken Kilrea in the first period that gave the Caps a 1-0 triumph over Pittsburgh Saturday. Ken, in a tangle with a Hornet defenseman near the Pittsburgh cage, attempted a pass across the ice to brother Hec. But Goalie Red McAtee stuck up an arm and the rubber bounced off his elbow into the netting. The Caps were short-handed twice during the remainder of the game—when Buck Jones and Jack Keating were penalized—but Goalie Jimmy Franks kept his station well guarded. Motter, Wares and Currie came down from the Detroit Red Wings to give the Caps some help, and for the first time since the new league ruling was effected, Indianapolis was able to dress 15 men.

Golden Glovers Turn On Heat
For 4th Show
69 Boys Train Hard for Bouts Friday
Pointing for the fourth and next-to-the-last show of the Indianapolis Golden Gloves Tournament, the city’s amateur mitt throwers turned on the heat in their training quarters today and
|responded to the shouts of
trainers to step up the pace.
Sixty-nine lads remain in the tourney, 38 in the Open class and 31 in the Novice, and they are due to resume the eliminations at the Butler Fieldhouse Punch Bowl Friday night. Sixty-five bouts have been held in the current meet and 28 knockouts or technical knockouts have been scored during the slambang fistic fireworks. As the weeks go by the boys improve in condition, timing and punching and several of last Friday’s matches produced enough excitement to satisfy the most rabid fightgoer. More than 3500 fans turned out for last week’s show to set an attendance record for The Times-Le-gion tournament and another good break in the weather for the fourth chapter of action this Friday is expected to result in a larger crowd.
Seats for All
There are plenty of seats at Butler Fieldhouse and the price scale on tickets is arranged to pack ’em in, Ringside reserved chairs sell for $1, lower floor bleachers at 50 cents and the entire upper floor at 25 cents. In addition, parking is free and this acreage is immense, with police always on hand to direct the motorists. This week’s weigh-in and physical examinations for the tournament boxers will be held at Fieldhouse Friday afternoon beginning at 4:30 o'clock. This is one hour later than last Friday. All eligibles must report for the checkup. It’s difficult to estimate at this time the number of bouts to be staged Friday but efforts will be made to hold a sufficient number to thin out the field to the finalists in the two classes. The Open lightweight division still shows seven eligibles, as follows: Lee Prettyman and Albert Sansbury, Wilson Milk A. C.; Jinmy Buhr and Charles Wirt, Northeast Community Center; Robert Simmons, Hill Community Center; Buddy Jones, Leeper Boxing School, and Everett Griffin, unattached,
Six Novice Middleweighis
The Novice middleweight division also has seven eligibles. These are William Harris,” Wilson Milk A. C.; Ralph Terry, Leeper Boxing School; James Glenn, Washington A. C.; Billy Thixton, English Avenue Boys’ Club; Lee Carter, Fayette Community Center; Garfield Foster, West Side A. C., and Owen Seay, Lauter Boys’ Club, . Other weight divisions in both classes are fairly well down to the semi-finals. Five lads remain in the Open featherweight division, six in the middleweight and six in the light-heavyweight. Based on the number of eligibles and not allowing for a shrinkage,
| PFriday’s fistic card probably will
contain 20 or more battles. Reserved seat tickets are on sale downtown at the Bush-Feezle Sporting Goods Co. 136 E. Washington

NEW YORK, Feb. 3 (U. P.)— With a full complement of special events and virtually the same cast that participated in the Millrose games in Madison Square Saturday night, the Seton Hall meet at Jersey City, N. J., rings up the curtain tonight on an intensive week of track and field competition. Another capacity crowd is expected to jam the Jersey Armory and most of the attention will focus on a trio of Indiana runners— Roy Cochran, Campbell Kane and Greg Rice—the only top-notch performers who haven't suffered a set-back on the board-floor circuit this year. The Billings two-mile will send Rice, apparently headed for another perfect season, against Don Lash, Indiana State trOoper; Ralph Schwartzkopf of Ann Arbor, Mich.; Tommy Deckard, Bloomington, Ind.; Forest Efaw, Oklahoma A. & M., and Joe McCluskey, New York. Kane, considered by many to be one of the greatest middle-distance runners of all time, moved up to the 1000-yard event to meet, among others, Chuck Fenske of Wisconsin, former mile king. Cochran of Indiana U., who won the Millrose 600, matches strides again with Jim Herbert, New York; Wes Wallace, Gary, Ind.; Johnny Quigley of Manhattan College and Charley O'Donnell of Holy Cross in the Waldron 600.

Horses’ Hoofs End Brilliant
Career in Agua
Caliente Race
By JACK GUENTHER
United Press Staff Correspondent SAN DIEGO, Cal., Feb. 3.—The thundering hooves which lured little Earl Dew from an Iowa farming village killed him, ending a meteorie
career at the age of 19.
The little, thin-limbed youngster, who won the 1940 riding title after the most exciting duel in racing records, went down in a cluster of horses while rounding a turn at Agua Caliente, Mexico, yesterday, and the
hooves stomped the life out of him. He died two hours later, his boots still on his feet, the shimmering silk jacket on his chest. Worn and weary by his months of straining against W. L. Taylor in the closing days of the past year for the jockey championship, Dew had taken a month’s vacation with his parents in Sac City, Ia. He opened his 1941 campaign at Golden Gate in Oakland on Saturday.
Rode for the Crowd
Yesterday he flew to Agua Caliente, but for pleasure instead of business. He went to the Mexican track to accept a diamond wrist watch, emblematic of his new championship. Just to give some 15,000 spectators a chance to see him in the saddle, he agreed to ride a few horses, too. He brought home. Anns Pride in second position in the first event, then went out again on a 5-year-old mare named Bosca in the sixth —an hour or so before he was to receive his watch. Bosca was a cheap thing—a $700 claimer in a $500 race—but because the champ was up, her price was around 4-1. She ran fifth to the final turn when her rider decided to bid. He shook her and for one or two strides she responded; then, something snapped inside her and she collapsed from a sudden hemorrhage. Dew tried to keep her up, but she was dead before she hit the track. Rush Rider to U. S. Dew was thrown heavily. Two horses tumbled over him and his dead steed. When a few of the 15,000 spectators picked him up, his body was limp and his face was smeared with blood. In the track hospital, he revived. For two hours he :was conscious and the doctors believed his inuries were not as serious as they had appeared. Then he began to sink and an ambulance started him for San Diego. Dew died en route. Among his other injuries was a fractured skull. He won the 1940 championship
with 287 victories, one more than Taylor's string. He rode more than 1200 horses in all parts of the nation and his ultimate triumph was considered sensational because Dew had been around the major tracks less than two years. His parents in Sac City said his body Too be returned home for urial,
Roche Has New Hold for Lee
Dorve (Iron Man) Roche, 220, the former coal miner from Illinois, will be sent against Alabama Bill Lee,
237, powerful grid performer, in the semiwindup on the Armory wrese tling bill tomorrow night. Roche, after deéveloping & new hold, has been meeting with extra good success and hopes to continue at the expense of Lee. The latter is a member of the Green Bay Pack ers pro football club. Headliners on the program are “Lord” Lansdowne, 179, a colorful and skilled performer, and Buck Weaver, 180, of Terre Haute. They met in a 30-minute tussle last week and Weaver was awarded a referee's decision. Lansdowne requested a return and their bout will be for two falls out of three, or 90 minutes. In the opener, The Great Mephisto, 180, Newark, N. J., grips with a newcomer, Len Campbell, 187, of Boston.
