Tribe Will Have Benefit Of Only 2 Outdoor. Drills
- BLOOMINGTON, Ind. March 28. —The Indiana a pols Indians tomorrow are ace league pitching in a regular exhibition game with the Cincinnati Reds out on Indiana university's Jordan field. Due to the fact the Reds are ahead of the Tribesters in training, expected to create much of a furore at bat although they will welcome the chance to try out their batting eyes against the major league hurlers. The Indians have practiced outdoors but once and they planned to get in a long workout today on the IU, diamond while the Reds were out of town. \
Three Get Mound Call
Bucky Walters, Joe Beggs and E. Heusser are expected to share the hurling for the Reds against the Tribe, Manager Bush of the Indians said he will call upon John Hutchings, Woodie Rich and Bob Logan. Hutchings is to get the starting assignment. Hugh Poland is to be on the receiving end. Bush was undecided today about the rest

There is nothing new to report on absentees Manny Salvo and Allyn Stout, pitchers, and Carl Fairly, shortstop. The Indians spent another day indoors yesterday and the players were sent through two hours of batting and running. “I. think we'll have a big edge over the other A. A. clubs in physical condition by the time opening day rolls around,” said the Tribe chieftain.

College Quints In Title Clash
NEW YORK, March 28 (U. P.). ~The finale in the world series of college basketball will be staged in Madison Square Garden tonight when Dartmouth clashes with Utah university for the 1944 N.C.A. A, title. Before the two meet, the N.C. A.A. rules committee was expected to have reached its decision on the controversial move to curb the “skyscrapers” of the game—the seven-footers. Chairman James W. St. Clajr of Southern Methodist said the committee was concerned mainly with the players’ welfare, and sought an answer to two key questions: (1) Is the tall goaltender a menace to the game? (2) Can resourceful coaching overcome seven-footer opposition, with out benefit of legislation? Coaches unanimously were against raising the baskets to 12 feet, but suggested the “tall, thin man” curb might be accomplished by prohibiting interference with the ball on its downward "flight, or abolishing the three-second rule, or inaugurating a threesecond zone within a six-foot circle of the basket. Utah, regardless of the outcome of the game with Dartmouth, will play St. John’s, national invitation champions, in the Red Cross benefit game on Thursday, with the mythical national title at stake,
