What these biraboes should do Is to pick lit a neutral floor ami go

in no doubt about that.

Basketball fans in (Lake County

would like to know which is the better team the Red Crowns of

Whiting: or the Colonials of Hammond. On paper the Red Crowjis have it

Oto for mau thy stack up the best

team in the mid-west. As a unit,

Well, frankly, that's -different yet

again. Let them meet the Colonials.

In the following letter is a fair

offer. What ea Wblting? Sporting- Editor The Times.

Sir:- In yesterday's edition of the Times you carried a story in re

gards to the recent Hanmiond-Colonial-Red Crown basketball game, which 'unfortunately was not

finished dwe to the Red Crown players themselves wtio left the

playing floor rather than abide by the referees decision. Allow me to

i?ate that referee Hess, was within

his rlgrhts in ruling- that Umpire Gevritz. erred in calling' a foul on meatber of the Hammond team has stated that should a foul have been

oalled on Hammond, and eye-wit-

sieeses have nothing to do with the

frferee' rulings. It may be that in "Whiting euch a thing- exists but not so In nammond or elsewhere arliers the referee is the boss ac

cording to the rules of the A, A. IT. The 8 c re when the game broke op in row wa7-7, the Hammond management was -willing that the game continue, but not so with manager Griffith, of Whiting, who ordered his players to the dressing room. Now comes Whiting on her customary manner, and yelps for another game at Whiting. Nay. nay. Red Crowns w are willing to meet you half way. The Hammond team stand ready t play you on any neutral floor -with any referee you choose, this In ludes ' Coach Hast of Whiting, who we believe to b on the square, -without Importing foreign referees. Yes. what could falrerT The Colonials are teady at any time even going as tax as to give the entire gate receipts to tfce. Hammond and Whiting: Posts tf the American Xieglon, What say yon Whtftng? IRVTNO CHATK3CN. Manag-er Hammond Colonials.

It will not be a game of pirla rules

rather, they will dI.iv- ih

men's game, with no reservations whatsoever. The Beta plila who are anxious to keep their record clean, "ere in Whiting Saturday evening, where they put in two solid hours of ractice, and believe us, they looked so rood, it almost is a sale bet as to who's who. The lied Crowns who are booked to ko in aerainst one of the fastest teams in the Central States expect no end of trouble in cleaning the Koekionl team. Manager Kloberp i.s bringing his team to Whiting to win. partly to revenge a severe beating lie received at the hands of the local five I .ft year, but icoie no because the slogan. "Beat the Red Crowns" has become a by-word throughout Wisconsin and Illinois. We believe we are safe in saying that more money has been spent by opposing team to beat the local five than anv other team in the game today. ThiVj is no idle boast. A glimpse of the score book will convince anyone of the truth of this statement. Our Red Crowns have considerable reputation as basketballers, and it means added prestige to any team whiuh can trim them. This is the one big reason why the local five has been facing all-star teams in the majority of its games and at that our record of only 8 lost out of 2 8 played is remarkable, considering that 13 of these were away from home, and 5 of them were lost by one and two points. No matter how strong Roekfovd may come, the game will be a battle from start to finish. Manager Kloberg remarks that any team which Is strong enough to step out at Muscatine and trim the strong Mnskies team, two games out of a two game series, are good enough to trim nine out of ten teams, and he further adds that he does not consider the Crowns a tenth team. This is what his team accomplished last week-end. It Is Quite a feat we will agree, as the Muskies have a real team, in fact, the best the Big Five could do with them was an even split. The Crowns

will lineup the same as In the past few games, while the Rockford team will present the eame lineup as has been playing all season.

They made It last night. Times baseball team. ! This when they elected their captain and manager. Now they're all set for a busy season. While the Twilight League trembles vaporously ih the misty haze of the future, a dozen other amateur teams in Hammond are meeting today to elect their captains and managers for the purpose of representing the new clubs at a meeting scheduled for Thursday eyening at 7:30 p. m.. at the Superior Court Building . Hammond.

I where, it is hoped, plans will be

With some big league talent in the playing ranks of the .Times aggregation the printers anticipate a lively season for 1922. Louis Garrnan, whose feet have carried acres of the red clay of diamonds of the southern leagues, was last night elected captain of the Times outfit. Garrnan knows a few things about baseball. He'll be present at the meeting Thursday night. About the base hit. Tes, the boys made that. This when they elected their manager.

ATHLETICS AT COLLEGES

IN STATE

BASEBALL AT DE PAUW UUKKNCASTLK. INU., March 22 Rain and cold weather has stopped all outdoor lteball w ork at Del'aiiw

thus far this week. Unless milder winds come quickly the outdoor work will be handicapped materially. Coach Walker has as many men as possible working In the Bowman gymnasium.

but it Is not a good place for any but

the battery men.

Indications are that Walker will be short of good pitchers during the coming season. The other places

seem to be fairly well taken care of

by men from lasf. year's squad, but so far no moundsmen of marked

ability have tome out for practice

Mark Bills, w ho did most of the hurling, last year, is not fond of baseball and so far he has not shown much

interest. With better weather he

may get busy.

Some of the most promising men have been cut off the squad because

they are ineligible. and this has thrown a monkey-wrench into th

work of getting the team well on its road to regular outdoor work. Whether most of them get eligible is doubtful.

NOTaB SAKE ATSXSTXCS NOTRK DAME, IX D., March 22 The plans of the Notre Dame baseball squad for a series of practice games this week have been altered and instead of venturing to the openair diamond the men again are being worked in gymn by Coach Halas. The squad is now cut to forty men, and just as soon as the weather conditions are favorable so that Halas can take his squad out of doors another cut will reduce the squad to twentyfive men. The weather also drove the track men indoors yesterday, but failed to cool the spirits of the men who are to take part in the state and conference meets and in the contest with the Illinois Athletic Club. Much interest is being shown by the students in the latter event as Notre Dame will use her crack freshmen In this affair. The date of the dual meet is May 6th.

WZATBXK HALTS WABASK CRAWFORDSVILLE, IND., March 22 Rain, snow, cold and several other such animals were responsible for a large gathering in the Wabash gymnasium yesterday afternoon when the Little Giant track men answered the 1522 call, and the baseballers headed into their second week of train ing . Coach Tte Yaughan is going to take charge of track, at least until something definite is decided about a i.e - track mentor, and he will get t! 4 going just as soon as weather permits. A lot of likely looking youngsters reported yesterday, in answer to the first call and Vaughan has a few veterans on hand who will help him round the crew int4 shape. Some of the old men have been taking indoor workouts for the last two months are anxious to get down to real training now. Coach Scholler isn't doing much with his baseballers these days. He is waiting for the sunshine to come back, and hoping that good weather breaks before spring vacation, which starts Monday.

Jir. Chayken evidently does not

consider a. season's record i,f

twenty games played, and only losing one of much consequence. I'pon this record and no other ioes the Calumet club hold that they are superior to any team within their werght in LyKe county and not eight men. such as the (,'ai.v works team picked ironi 0 depart

ment teams, or a toinl of 72 men to play in the tournament only. As we all know the various teams of Lake county outside- of the high school are not governed hy any association, or conference, and less so to the dictatorship of a "mushroom" director, who willfully takes upon himself to sr.tch a hard earned year's record from under the wings yt a clever, fast and energetic rroup of athletes, we absolutely re"oe to concede to t'.ie supposed de

cision of this tournament, whim should have read the champions of the tournament only. When the Calumet club first heard about the said tournament ail wero in favor of staying out. for it was nothing- to win tind all to lose. After holding two special meetings the last of which was Saturday afternoon before the tournament they decided to ent.-r. Then getting "Mr. Chayken'' over the telephone they were met with tile vague excu.". that since it was 5:30 p. ni . all entrits to sail tournament were eloped, which was contrary to an article In The Times that evening which stated that tho drawing of the teams would take place Wednesday, 151 h; and all team coul.1 enter up until that date. The Kast Chicago Dodgers entered Suniay morning, which was after the Saturday night of the Caluni't Club attempt, to enter and then, they entered without even Minnrtting a lineup. which was contrary to rules. How do these things occur?.'? In a later verbal conference with the na id Mr. Chayken he made a

statement to the effect that his reason for not allowing the Calumet club from participating in the tournament was that the club managed had not put forth his request In the proper manner to suit his fancy. Again we nk are we to lose te honor of a ear's playing because the request 'a as not put forth in an humble enough manner? Positively retting all this aside, we claim the championship and wihh to express our gratitude for the sportsmanship of all the leains we have played during this season. CAl.lWIKT A. C.
