~ Jennings Turns ‘Hat Trick’ as ‘Caps Rout Providence, 3 to 2

By WILLIAM C. EGGERT

Opposing hokcey teams like Washington and Cleveland have felt

the subrational pang of exasperation on the local coliseum ice rink.

Last night “before 3099 paid fans Providence joined this select : group ‘as the Indianapolis Capitals completely exhausted the Reds :

and won, 8 to 2. Bill Jennings, Cap wing, turned the “hat trick,” scoring four goals . for nine individual points. He also had an assist. Only three goals are required to turn the trick. Two of Jennings’ goals were made without assistance.

High Scorers The eight goals scored by the

winners made the Caps the high-}

“scoring club of the league, eight ahead of Buffalo, who leads Indianapolis by one point in first place in the western division. . No one was more jubilant about ‘the Caps’ success last night than Manager Herbie Lewis. His boys simply wore the Reds out with -speed. Like he said, “Providence in the third period had its tongues ‘hanging out.” It was the victors’ 14th straight home-ice victory and best revenge the Caps could administer for the E “rimming” they got at Providence FE last week. ml "A Little Luck The Caps’ first two goals were Jucky scores. Les Douglas found .a ~ loose puck in front of the nets and © banged it in at :58 of the first ‘period. At 2:10 Hal Jackson teedoff with a long shot. It was stopped

~~ by Providence and batted in-by Joe

i _ Pisher.

~ Providence scored later in the pe-|-

riod but the goal was nullified by Referee Ace Lee because George ~ Kelley, Red defense man, was standing intentionally in “the crease” of the Caps’ goal. Then at 15:25 Windy Steele scored a legiti- ~ mate goal for the easterners but at 17:40 Jennings flew down the rink side unmolested, cut across the net front and slammed the puck home for his first in a series of four goals. i Cully Simon passed to Jennings * and the “hat tricker” skated half the rink fo score again at 3:48 of . the second period. His third goal

followed at 5:17. He took his own|P

rebound shot off Goalie Mike Karakas’ shin guards and sent it deep in the nets.

Screened Score

Jack Toupin sent the puck high and inside the cage at 12:22 with assists from Andy Brown and Jack "| Forsey. Goalie Floyd Perras never _. saw the puck coming. It was ~ screened all the way. . Gordon Sheritt and Simon spent

gat ‘two-minute penalties in the “jail

box” near the end of the period and Providence failed to score. Bob Whitelaw, former Cap player holding down one of the defense “ posts for the Reds, tripped Adam Brown after the final quarter began. Whitelaw was given a two-minute

penalty and Sherritt drove the puck home to score at 1:55. Fisher and Brown were credited with assists. Jennings registered his final goal at 7:30. The Caps had been power-driving upon the Providence cage. In a mad scramble for the puck Jennings knocked it in.

Rough Play

That set the fireworks off. Providence knew they couldn’t win the way they were playing but they could get rough. They did. Don Webster, Red wing, started a slug ging match with Douglas. The ref broke it up. Body checks were more frequent and Moose Sherritt liked it all; the rougher the better for him. And he got a bloody nose. Weaver ended the Caps scoring at 15:30 with a goal on assists’ from Jennings and Jackson. The Caps will play at Hershey Saturday night when Joe Brown, loaned recently to Washington, will rejoin the squad. Sunday night.the same two teams will play here. Jerry Holata, Omaha's high scorer, will come here from Detroit as soon as the Red Wings get their injured players back on the ice. Connie Brown, Bill Quackenbush and Sid Abel are on the shelf at present. Last night's summary: Indianapolis (8). Providence (2).

$6850 Prize

NEW YORK, Nov. 12 (U. P.)— Mrs. Al Sabath's doughty three-year-old, Alsab, made his last appearance of the year a winning one as he won the $10,000 Victory Handicap, feature of the Armistice Day program at Belmont park yesterday. Alsab, - opposed by seven other capable starters, broke sixth and won his way up along the outside, bore down on the leaders easily and drew away to beat Boysy, winner of the Continental and Scarsdale events, by three-quarters of a length. Alsab pulled up lame, however, and will be retired for the year. - Boysy finished one-half length in front of Bon Jour, who enjoye& a 24-pound pull in the weights of Alsab, top-weighted at 126. Victory was worth $6850 to Alsab who paid $3.50, $2.80 and $2.40 to his . backers. and $5.10 while Bon Jour turned in $5.70 to show. Bright Gallant came in fourth,

‘Jack O’Brien

Dies in Gotham

NEW YORK, Nov. 12 (U. P.).— Philadelphia Jack O’Brien, 64, who once held the light-heavyweight championship of the world, died in Polyclinic hospital today. Although he knocked out Bob Fitzsimmons for the title in 1905 and won about 225 fights, O'Brien was best known for his losing battle with Stanley Ketchel, the Michig Assassin: - In that fight in 1909, O’Brien won every round and was easing up for the final bell when Ketchel drove home a terrific punch that dropped his opponent cold. O’Brien spent his latter years running a gymnasium and telling about his career in the ring which he said was forced upon him by necessity. “I had heard of his tumultuous ferocity but conjectured that I could jab his puss off,” said O'Brien of the Ketchel fight. O’Brien’s real name was Joseph Francis Anthony. Hagen. He got his nickname from his birthplace.

Phillies Wiiil Be Sold if Possible

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 12 (U. P.) —The. Philadelphia Inquirer said last night it had learned from an unimpeachable source that the Philadelphia National league baseball club “is in serious finan= cial plight and will be sold if possible.” ; Gerry Nugent, who with Mrs. Nugent owns a majority of stock * in the Phils, has pointed out in discussions with other club owners that the Phils have been unable to sell any star players for the last two years. Frick, National league president, said the league “cannot operate the Phils unless and until the club goes absolutely haywire financially.

But if Tech Wins the Title Will Be Divided Three Ways

A LOT OF “high school Harrys” are going to settle their annual crosstown squabble tomorrow afternoon when Shortridge and Tech football teams battle at the Eastsiders’ fleld at 2:30 o'clock before

approximately 10,000 people. What-is at stake? 1. The city championship will

go to Shortridge if the Blue Devils

win. If Tech wins the title will be shared by Shortridge, Tech and

Manual.

2. An unbeaten season for Shortridge. Last year Tech thundered through the season undefeated and belted Shortridge, 7 to 2, in the season’s finale. It was the Green and

White’s first undefeated season.

The tables have turned this year. Shortridge’s. twisting backs and charging line have trampled eight foes. Only Tech stands in the way

for a perfect season; the first in 16 » ” tJ

INTEREST IN THE GAME tomorrow has not lagged because Tech was upset surprisingly last week, 13 to 0, by Washington. Tom Woods, Shortridge coach, wishes Tech would have won that game. It

would make tomorrow’s plans easier.

Instead, Tech will be keyed for

Each school has won 10. The 1921

contest was a scoreless tie and the

two schools battled to a 6-6 deadlock in 1934. Shortridge is the favorite. Its triple-threat star, Jim Allerdice, has scored 73 points in eight games. He isn’t fast but he is a good broken field runner and performs equally well at passing and punting. Working with him in the backfield he has Bob Ragsdale, George Lewis and Ray Stone and up front he has a quick-starting line.
