TEE Indianapolis Indians’ tentative spring training program calls for the first squad to report at the Cocoa, Fla., camp on Monday March 9. . . . This squad to include Manager Gabby Hartnett, Coach Walter Tauscher and
the batterymen. The second squad is booked to arrive there Monday, March 16, and will include the infielders and outfielders. Skipper Hartnett has yet to okay the reporting dates, but it is believed they are about right to fall in line with his general plans. . _ Definite and complete arrangements are to be made when Gabby reaches Indianapolis on Feb. 11 to attend the baseball booster dinner on Feb. 12. i Al Schiensker, Tribe secretary, has lined up 12 exhibition games, all to be played in Florida, and is dickering for three or four more. . . . He js anxious to get the Indians on the training schedule of some big league clubs who will be doing their spring chores in the Sunshine State at the same time the Redskins are there. Tribe exhibition dates at this time are home-and-home affairs with three International League clubs as follows: TY March 24 apd Wednesday, — Montreal Royals at Cocoa wrday, March 28—Buffale Bisons . March 30—Buffalo at Cocoa. March 31—Baltimore Orioles at Hollywood. . . Wednesday, April 1—Buffalo at Ft. Pierce. Thursday, April 2—Baltimore at Cocca. . . . 3— Montreal at Daytona . And at Daytona Montreal on Saturday, April 4 Three consecutive games against Buffalo will complete the Tribes card as it stands now. . . Sunday, April 5, Buffalo at Cocoa: Monday, April 6, Buffalo at Ft. Pierce, and Wednesday, April 8. Buffalo at Cocoa. Tribe piavers have been advised to report in shape and ready for hard work at the outset of the spring drills. . . . The Indians will remain in Florida until time to shove off for Indianapolis to battle Columbus in the opening game on Thursday, April 16. President Owen J. Bush wants the Indians home by April 14 at the latest and there will be no barnstorming after the squad pulls out of Florida.
Burwell Surveys Camp for Indians
BILL BURWELL, Louisville Colonels’ manager who lives at Davtona Beach, Fla, located 70 miles north of Cocoa, recently visited the Tribe's new camp and reported the following items to Secretary Schiensker: That the authorities at Cocoa are to be complimented on the fine job they are doing at the ball park. . . . The infield and outfield are coming along fine and will be all set for the Indians when they land there in March. The park is but one year old and a lot of fast work was required to make it available for training and games, although it was used last summer by the Cocoa Florida East Coast Class D League team. There is this disdvantage, however. . . The park is located three miles from the hotel where the Indians will establish headquarters, making it necessary to provide extra transportation for Tribe players, officials, visiting teams and fans.
Fishing Good Outside Front Door
BURWELL ALSO ADVISES that the Hoosier party is in for some nice fishing. . He says the fishing is best in that area right outside the frent door of the Indian River Hotel, where the Indians will make their spring home. The hotel is built on the bank of the Indian River and is a modern structure with every convenience. . . However, it is at some distance from the city of Cocoa, approximately two miles, and its postoffice is Rockledge, Fla. . . Cocoa and Rockledge adjoin, like Champaign and Urbana, Ill. Another disadvantage i8 the fact that Cocoa is not located in the heavy training camp belt of Florida and this situation makes it difficult to arrange a diversified exhibiton schedule.

THE TRANSPORTATION probiems is going to be no soft touch for any of the many ball clubs in the South this year. . . . In past vears distance jumps in Florida were taken in stride, The rubber shortage has changed the picture and cars and free rides for ball teams probably will be few and far between. . . . In the past many players took their own cars to camp and these were available for game trips and pleasure hops. . . The players are unlikely to deo that this spring . . . they have to save on tires, too.

offered the Giants a definite price for McCarthy, a first baseman. The Giants agreed, but wanted to keep McCarthy in case Young, another first sacker, went into the Army.

The Caps were superior every-| where except in! the goal department. Joe (No! Nol)! Turner had only! 18 saves in the first three periods, compared | to 42 by Bev-| eridge.

He scored the first goal of the evening in 7:17 of the first period. Connie Brown came down the sideboards like lightning, eluded the defense and passed across to Fisher.

Joe was going the other way, but not the puck. He slipped it back over Beveridge’s right shoulder in a place about the size of your grandmother's thimble and the Caps led, 1 to 0, Herbie's boys took the offensive as if it were the final period in the championship game.

He said no, and “no” it was. Doug (Superman) McCaig drew {the first penalty of the evening (after 11 minutes of the second period had been played and the Caps were still ahead, 1 to 0.

‘Sudden Death’ At Columbus
Indiana Must Win To Keep in Race
GAMES TONIGHT: Indiana at Ohio State, Chicago at Jowa. CHICAGO, Feb. 2 (U, P.).—~It is “sudden death” time now in the Big Ten. Six conference teams face quick elimination from championship contention. One of these is Ine
diana which must face Ohio State | tonight on the Buckeyes’ court and ithe Bucks proved last Saturday
‘night by whipping Purdue that they [can be tough upon occasion.

RE EN | 00 LI LW WW WD
Iowa has easy pickings tonight, meeting the hapless Chicago five who has been licked eight straight times this season.
Meanwhile, all wait for unde feated Illinois to break down.
The Situation
Illinois, powered by four sharpe shooting sophomores, is in the midst of a scholastic tussle after piling up six straight victories. Instead of clarifying the issue during this lull, challengers Minnesota and Purdue fell as upset vice tims Saturday night. Minnesota, Purdue, Northwestern, Iowa, Indie ana, and Wisconsin now have lost three games and not a one can be considered mueh of a title threat unless Illinois soon shows the strain of leading the pack and drops a game here and there. Indiana's invasion of Columbus tonight took on added significance when Ohio State came to life on the scoring impetus provided by three sophomores and upset Purdue, 46 to 40. Indiana (4-3) rambled over Chicago, 63 to 34.
Ohio Threatens
In addition to Max Gecowets, second in conference scoring, Ohio State now has new threats in its sophomore finds, who scored 30 of Ohio State's 35 second half points.
Michigan also staged a surprise Saturday by defeating Minnesota in the last minute of play, 34 to 32. Mel Comin, a junior forward who hadn't hit a point previously, dumped in a field goal to break a 32-all tie that Minnesota had produced with an eight-point rally. From this point on the only thing that can be classed as an upset is a defeat for Illinois and a victory for Chicago. The word “upset” probeably would be a slight understatee ment in the latter case.
