Injury Threatens Brilliant Track Career of Greg Rice
Hoosier Hoopla
In Full Stride
By UNITED PRESS A state-wide avalanche of bounding basketballs will descend upon Hoosier hardwood floors tonight as the high school season swings into full stride with the opening of con‘ference schedules.
Noticeable among war-time
changes is the I. H, S. A A. ruling|
that all schools conform to an 18- * game limit, exclusive of tournament games, instead of the usual 20 games. The measure was taken because of transportation difficulties. School busses and private cars will be the chief conveyances. The call to the colors has weakened many potential powerhouses as coaching staffs have been depleted. Frankfort’s unforgettable Everett Case has enlisted in the navy and Archie Chadd of Anderson resigned to become superintendent of Anderson schools. Marion Crawley, who coached Washington’s Hatchets to two consecutive state titles, faces his first test tonight in his new position as coach of Jefferson of Lafayette. Crawley will launch a quest for his
third straight crown with an inex-{-
perienced team of Broncos against New Castle. Ray Scott, formerly of Martinsville, takes over Crawley’s Washington champions, but the Hatchets have had to rebuild from scratch as most of the wonder-five who trounced Muncie Burris in the state tourney last year were graduated. Also plagued by diploma blues is Coach Keith Crown of Gary Horace Mann whose team of five seniors went as far as the semi-finals last year before losing to Frankfort in an upset Logansport’s Berries, who won their first contest against Royal Centre, battles Delphi tonight, while Huntingburg’s Hunters face Jasper in one of the high-lighting tilts in} the South. In other games this week-end, Lebanon meets Anderson, Frankfort tangles with Rossville, Franklin vs. Scottsburg, Rushville vs. Lawrenceburg and Rochester vs. Culver.

By HARRY GRAYSON Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Nov. 13.—A pulled tendon in the calf of his right leg threatens the brilliant track career of Gregory Rice.
The greatest distance runner ever developed in this country suffered the-injury when he stepped in a hole while working out in Central park more than a month ago.
Greg Rice has rested for days at a time, but the injury has recurred each time the barrel-chested little Notre Dame product has started to prepare himself for another fall and winter season. At the moment, the calf is inflamed as though it were infected. Rice, now a New York accountant, does not expect to be ready for the metropolitan cross-country in Van Cortlandt park, Nov. 22, when he planned to return to the wars.
Air Priority
Rice’s loss would be a terrific blow to the indoor season, for he is being counted on to supply the bulk of the competition for the invading Swedes, Gunder Hagg and Arne Anderson. The Amateur Athletic union awaits mid-December air priority for Hagg, Anderson and Hakan Lindman, who has done 14 seconds in the 110-meter high hurdles. Anderson chased Hagg to world outdoor records all summer—4:04.6 for the mile, 8:47.8 for the two-mile, 13:32.4 for the three, 3:45.8 for 1500 meters, "5:11.8 for 2000, 8:01.2 for 3000 and 13:58.2 for 5000.
