ROCKFQRD STARS PLAY WHITING

Mi Girls and Blue Island Lassies to Furnish the Preliminary Attraction ISfECIAL TO THE TIMES1 VTHlH.Ni; ind.. .,110.1 2'. After much eff.-.rt and persuasion mi the part of t':e WhUin R?d Crown management the fain us Rokro:d Toms of R iik ford. I'l.. will be Ee- n in action ni AA'ednesday evmlni against th.-. Red Cruvtis. This game has been booked with t'co idea of giving AViiiting fans an opportunity to see on good game before the season closes. In b-M.-ing the Ri-ckford ttam. Manager Griffith feis that he has one of the best teams In the Central states. This they have proven., through their wonderful record of achie.ement the past geuson. Manager Floberg of the Rockford Ave what might be termed a live wire manager and let's no grass grow under his feet in getting the very best that basketball affords. Since the close -f the conf-rence season, he has sitwied up Larry AValquist and Chuck Carney of Illinois and Dan AA'hite of Purduo. It is still a question ;is to whether he will bring these stars to AArhiting for this game, but if he doesn't there will be some mighty interesting basketball anyhow, as the Toms have had a very successful season without the services of the above stars . Another Ms attraction on un? evening wiU be the game between the Betz Girls of Hammond ami the Blue Island girls. Both of these teams are the best that the Calumet region can produce In feminine basketball and the game between them will prove mighty interesting to the spectators beyond a doubt. RED CKOAVX B4SKETBAI.L Only one more game and the season will be over until December, when the Red Crowns will be back with the strongest team ever. The proposed Northern Indiana Basketball league, to take in the cities of Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago and Gary, South Bend, Michigan City, Laporte and 'alparaiso. If '.t becomes a reality it will give the fans of this section a much improved brand of basketball and eliminate many disappointments caused by weak bookings and teams failing to show up. In speaking of tlio unfortunate ending to the Colonial-Fied Crown game. Manager Griffith of the Red Crowns fels that his team Is m no w ay at fault. "We. believe, according to our interpretation of the rules as laid down in the A. A. V. rule book, that the referee was not within his rights, and overstepped his authority when he over-ruled the umpire who had called a foul rn Seott of Hammond at the same time, he (the referee) had called a foul on AA-atson. Eyewitnesses. '-oth Hammond and Whiting, an 1 even members of the Hammond team admitted that should there have been a foul at all. it might have been a double foul, but Jn reality it was Scott who made the foul by jumping into the Whiting man when the bail was thrown up. Thi duty of the umpire is to call personal fouls ca he sees them no matter iow or whore they tfrke plac-S. and we be lieve that when the referee oerruled the umpire in this case ne was absolutely in the wrong. However, the Hammond management should have expressed their willingness to meet the visiting team (the Red Crownsl half way. Had they done this a double foul would have resulted and the game could have been finished. Will the Red Crowns and Colonials meet in a third game? Manager Grifiths is willing to arrange such a game to be played at Whiting, or a neutral floor with IT. O. Summerhausen of Chicago, president f the A. A. U. basketball officials association and a member of the rules committee sj referee. AVhat could be fairer? F WINS STATE T INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., March 20. A recapitulation of the figures oil the sjate high school basket ball championship tournament won by Franklin High school shows what each team accomplished in the way of accurate shooting at the basket. The Franklin squad became mor; efficient with each game until in reached a peek -playing power in the semi-final game with the clevtr Blooniington outfit, and then dropped a fraction in perctntages in th final clash with Garfield. but scarcely enough to ne noticeable. The Franklin team was like a crew of bricklayers on a big construction job. The men did not hurry nor rush, but just kept everlastingly at it. putting in a brick here and there, with precision anJ care and Saturday rngnt tury nished heir state championship structure. From the first moment Franklin appeared on the floor, it appeared to :have a very definite mission in view-. he plan, of campaign was all mapped cut in advance. JIHOAVIfi AGAINST (EVTOVL Jn Franklin's first game against Central of Evansville the state champs didn't go so well. Out of sixty chances from the field they caged but twelve goals for a percentage of 20. Foul tries were 5 per cent better with three sinkings
