The Townsend Incident FTHE SHELBYVILLE Democrat commented editorially and at length earlier this week on last Friday night's “Townsend incident” in

- which police had to protect Earl

Townsend, Indianapolis official, from frate basketball fans, We only wish we had the space

to reproduce the editorial in its en-|.

tirety, for it drives home some fine points. And a lot of other communities could profit from Shelbyville's. experience. * “The worst ‘apgle of the whole ugly situation is the fact that Shel. byville ‘high school must bear the brunt. of any official reprimand which might be forthcoming be-

~ cause of the near riot" it read

+ + + "Yet in the Friday night incident here, little of the blame can [be placed on the school officials, and certainly none on the players, It is the adults of the community who were at fault—the grown-up fathers, and even some mothers, of children of school age. It: was the adults who swarmed about the offical as police formed a cordon around him to prevent the development of a riot. “Worse still was the attitude of a comparative handful of so-called rabid fans—the group which inevitably feels called upon to ‘take & poke’ at someone under such circumstances. . . . It is toward such irresponsible characters ‘that the community's ire should be directed. School officials would be thoroughly justified in barring them from futyre athletic contests here. And school officials have that power under rules of the I. H. S. A. A. “Regardless of the quality of the officiating at local basketball games —and this is In no way a defense of Umpire Townsend—the community must never again permit such a display of mob hysteria. . If it does, it is inevitable that the school will be suspended=and that the children of the community will pay for the faults of their elders.” " » » \ Maybe Russ Julius at Shortridge has the answer. He scheduled the Cathedral game for an " aftermoon contest and gave it back te the kids. » ” » NO BEEF SHORTAGE—One veteran official told the Kunnel the other day that he was seriously

They Just can’t stand to lose and have to take it out on someoge.” _ He went on to say that the pro coaches sometimes get a bit unruly ~—probably due to the fact that their jobs depend on winning teams —but the players cause little trouble.

At Fieldhouse Crowd Sticks for Zollner Victory

There were a lot of sleepy people in the city and Indianapolis’ was back in first place in the Western division ol the National Basketball league today. A crowd of 12,363 saw the Kautskys’ 73-54 league triumph over the Anderson Packers and then stuck stubbornly through the second: half of the twin bill in which the Ft. Wayne. Zollners ‘polished off the New York Rennaisance, 52-40. It was close to 11:30 before the final buzzer sounded on the rough second contest. Then it took an hour or so to unsnarl traffic in Fairview, s0 the sleep loss must have been staggering when placed end to end. The crowd was considerably under that of the Chicago All-Star game, but it was the largest by far {to witness a pro league game over ithe nation this season. Kautskys Methodical The Kautsky tpssers were quite methodical in racking up their ninth straight victory on the big Butler court. Anderson started off fast, but the Indianapolis pros just played along with them and then tured on the power when the Chiefs ran out of steam, The better-condi-tioned Kautskys have treated ‘all comers in a similar fashion here this season. The visiting clubs

Coach Murray Mendenhall’s team forged ahead at the start, 7-6, but Leo Klier and Herm Schaefer connected to make it 10-7 for the Kautskys. Anderson managed to tie it up again at 10-all but Schaefer again connected and the locals held a 14-10 quarter advantage.

bit more decent batting average in the third period and passed the smooth-passing Negro club at 31-30. It was Katy-bar-the-door after that, for the Zollners played a tight possession game and made the most of their scoring opportunities. High-point man of the entire évening’s entertainment was Andres with eight fielders and a pair of free throws for 18. He still plays like a college boy. The summaries:
