| Wisconsin And Indiana Will Now Take A Nice, Deep Breath

! : By STEVE SNIDER United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Feb. 18.—Wisconsin, the one-point wonders, and second-place Indiana step deep into the second division Saturday night for a pair of “breathers” before their battle for the Big Ten basketball championship on Feb. 24.

The one-point wonders, who pulled off another hectic victory at Purdue last night, 43 to 42, play poor old Chicago, which hasn't won a game in eight brave efforts. Indiana meets Iowa, now resting in seventh place.

Wisconsin’s one-pointer last night was its third of the year and the second over Purdue, but a victory is a victory and the Badgers still are on top with eight in a row against

one defnat. State, 40 to 33. In one respect, the Wisconsin-Chicago game at Madison Saturday night is the best on the program. It brings together the Big en's hottest scorers—Gene Englund of Wisconsin and be-spectacled Joe Stampf of Chicago, new favorite for the ind.vidual championship.

Although Englund’s 120 points lead the league, Stampf is only two behind and he has played one less game. His average in eight games is 14% points and anything like that in his four remaining games will duplicate the feat of Chicage’s scoring star of the past, Bill Haariow, who won individual titles with last-place teams, Stampf scored 14 of Chicago’s 29 points against Michigan

Indiana hung in second place by thumping Ohio

last night with three fleld goals and elght free throws. In lifting his free-throw total to 56 for the season, he exceeded the 49 with which he led the Conference last year.

Also scheduled Saturday night are .Ohio State (5-4) at * Northwestern (2-6); Purdue (4-4) at. Minnesota (5-3), and Illingis (5-4) at Michigan, (3-6).

Operating on the old theory that Big Ten contenders are counted out after losing three games, Wisconsin and Indiana are the only two left with much chance for the title,

Minnesota is in third place with a record of five and three and all the rest have lost four or more. Wisconsin’s now famous one-two scoring punch of Englund and Johnny Kotz brought the Badgers from behind,

17 points and Kotz 15.

Indiana, as usual, divided its scoring down the roster. *

Louis Looks Bad in Winning And Conn Stock Rises

By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 18.—The ‘Philadelphia Story” about Heavy-

weight Champion Joe Louis is this:

Bomber Joe looked unexpectedly

bad in doing unexpectedly good, thus causing Challenger Billy Conn’s

stock to rise several points.

Louis knocked out Gus Dorazio last night in the second round before 15,902 cash customers at Convention Hall, setting a record for indoor boxing crowds in Philadelphia and a similar record for the

$57,652 gate. When the Brown Bomber achieved his 14th successful title defense at 1:30 of the second round, he surprised most experts who had figured that the squat, dark-haired Philadelphia challenger would last at least three or four sessions. But the champion’s showing, before this kayo, was so questionable —particularly in the first round— that some of the most practical men in the fight mob called it “brutal.” Even Louis’ co-managers, Julian Black and John Roxborough, were apologetic. Louis revealed in this historic first round that he no longer had the co-ordination of youth. He showed that he was off on his timing and judgment of distance, until Dorazio’s own hell-for-leather carelessness in the second session made the challenger a ready target that even a novice could have tagged. Louis tagged him then all right, proving, at least, that the Detroit Negro still has his brown-lightning punch. Louis hit him with «he hardest straight he has thrown sinc: he smicked Rugged Paulino to the canves before Joe became chanipion. Dorazio’s manager, Joe Martino, said, “Gus got too confident, He left himself wide open while coming up from a crouch with left hooks, trying to knock Louis out.” And that’s the picture in a nutshell. Louis, whose record of 41 knockouts in 49 previous professional bouts stamps him as the most destructive puncher the heavyweight division ever knew, tried to establish

And when he's right, where you gonna get a better third baseman? Or one as good?” Joe made it clear that he wasn’t knocking the ' youngsters who were coming up. I asked him about Jerry Priddy, the Kansas City flash who'll be gunning for Joe’s second base job, and his sidekick, Phil Rizzuto, the shortstop. “Great ball players. Both of

Legless Swim |

Ace Paddles On

HONOLULU, Feb. 18 (U. P.).— Legless Charles Zimmerman, who has established five world records for endurance swimming, paddled up and down the pool of Waikiki Natatorium today, seeking to break the mark of 148 hours, 25 minutes, he set in a 1937 non-stop swim down the Hudson River from Albany to New York. Zimmerman tumbled into the pool at 10 p. m. Sunday, and hopes to remain until next Sunday, or longer. He will have established a new record by midnight Saturday. The 47-year-old Zimmerman finds that lack of legs gives him a greater buoyancy, enabling him to sleep while floating on his back. He lost his legs in a train accident years ago.

Failure to score any points tonight would make almost impossible his chances of setting a new one-year scoring record. Already he has established a new three-year mark with 474 points but he needs 40 more points to add to his 169 to break Jerry Steiner’s 208 of last year. Butler shaded DePauw, 38 to 34, last Jan. 18 in the Fieldhouse only after the Tigers had a 13 to 0 lead and remained ahead for 37 minutes.

'| Tonight, playing on their home

court, the Tigers have a slight edge. They have won six and lost three in the loop and have a season's showing of eight victories in 13

from league opponents and has lost nine of 14 non-conference games.

Tigers Have Same Team

Coach D. C. Moffett will start the same five he used Jan. 18, even though his squad has been bolstered with reserve strength. George Taylor, former Greencastle High School star, has become scholatically eligible ‘and Bill Lynch, Bloomfield veteran, may see some action. Neither, however, is expected to get a starting assignment. Instead Don Jones and Earl Shalley will be at the forwards; Max Biggs, center, and Frank Roberts and Joe Prewitt, guards, will round out the lineup. With Dietz out of the starting five, Coach Hinkle probably will substitute James Deputy, Seymour junior, or Fred (Red) Hunckler, Jeffersonville sophomore, at one of the guard posts to team with Lyle Neat. Harold (Red) Braden and Elwood Norris will start the forwards with Bill Hamilton at center. Another likely pair of starting forwards are Wilbur Schumacher and Jim McCray. The remainder of tonight's card is exclusively conference tilts as Franklin plays at Ball State, Oakland City at Rose Poly and Earlham at Wabash,

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 18 (U. P.). —Vice President Branch Rickey qf the St. Louis Cardinals said today that holdout Johnny Mize, slugging first-baseman, would return

Rickey announced at the same time that three more Cards had signed. They were Ernie Koy, Harry ‘Walker, brother ‘of the Brooklyn Dodgers’ Dixie Walker, and John Wyrostek.

Five, including Catcher Gus Mancuso, Outfielders Estel Crabtree and Coaker Triplett, Infielder Frank Crespi and Pitcher | Murry Dickson, signed yesterday. Mize and Rickey failed to come to terms in two previous conferences and Mize, who led the major leagues in home runs last season, has returned a second contract une signed.

Cyclone Bill Jennings . . . is he a . major leaguer?

Ruling Waited On Jennings

It was up to Maurice * Podoloff, American Hockey League president, to decide whether the crippled Detroit Red Wings can recruit Cyclone Bill Jennings, the Capitals’ recordbreaking goal getter, to fill a wing berth. Last night Boss Jack Adams of the Red Wings sent a call for Jennings to replace the injured Eddie Wares. Jennings, who scored three

goals for the Caps in the new time of 57 seconds’ Sunday night, was to report to Detroit after playing with the Hoosiers tomorrow night at Hershey. Herbie Lewis, however, that Jennings did a one-night stand at Detroit last Friday which may, in Mr. Podoloff’s opinion, make Bill a major leaguer. On that subject there's an American League ruling that a National Leaguer down for a stay has to .stay at least two weeks. In that event, Detroit] couldn't have Bill for two weeks, and probably wouldn't need him by then. Should Mr. Podoloff decide Jennings isn’t a major leaguer, he will leave the Caps after tomorrow night’s game still eligible for the Calder Cup playoffs, having played his six February games with Indianapolis.
