way the Columbias best semi-pro clubs

States. The Columbia A. C. will show the best teams in the semi-pro world what they are made of. They have made a few changes in their lineup this year and a strong and co-operating team will take the field each Sunday. The infield is considerably strengthened with "Eddie" Shepp, the former home rtyi king of the Columbus Club of South Carolina, as catcher, and with Smith and Krossley as utility men. Kddie's twirlers will be Rmo, who pitched many a winning game for the team last season, and also Joe Kowalski. who is classed as the best pitcher in the Southern league. He needs no introduction to the Hammond fans, as he has pitched for the Hammond pros a few years ag . "Chuck" Rhode him also signed the contract to play first base for the Columbian. He is widely known throughout this district as the best ball player Hammond has ever pro

duced, last season "Chuck batted over seven hundred for the Gary Midwest. Bud Kennedy, who played with the Dodgers Training last sea. son. and the clubs famous "Jabbo." will hold the keystone position, second base. Poland P.etider, who bat

Picking all-star teams'.! It's a -pleasant past-tim It's harmless, too, and leads to nothing but much rapid discussion. But it appeases a 'lot of vanity. It's like the game a lot of authors play. On writer reviews the work of another. He pens criticism of it. if a gentleman's agreement exists you can be sure the criticism will be little short of a rose garden of words hurled with much enthusiasm into the lap of the writer reviewed. That's' the way with the dopesters who pick all-star teams. Sometimes their reasons for placing the ability of one player above that of another are good. Usually it happens that more than merit skMl in the game in which he plays enter into the appraisment of a player by one of these dopesters. He has to consider what the pulblic thin-ks of the player. The fans in the grand-stand are quick to percieve real ability. Then, too, the player's personality is reckoned. Personal contact counts for a lot. Other things, too, are considered. Several so-cal1el all-star teams of the 'basketball world have appeared in these columns of late. As said before it's a popular pasttime with individuals more or less qualified to determine what's what in sports. Publication of a new allstar team will mean a (lot of shoulder shrugging. This new team is presented here for the interest it

may arouse. This department is content to mirror opinion in a matter of this kind. It doesn't seek the tenuous pedestal of arbiter. COACH SC1IOOV PICKS All-STARS Coach ' Schoon (unknown to this writer b-ut perhaps well-known in the atheletic world of Gary') writes that he's picked what he thinks is the all-star basket ball team of northern Indiana. One Hammond team is represented; that's All Saints. Two players of the Indiana Harbor Dodgers grace the stellar combination. The J5 e k o Travelers. Grey Kagles and 'Katherine House are others named. Here's the line-up: Bberle, U F. All Saints Midgets. Fox, R. F. I. H." Dodgers. Flournoy, C. Zeko Travelers. Ksola, R. CJ I H. Dodgers eUlplnovich, R. F. Katherine House.

Substitutes: Muir, Grey Cohen. Dodgers.

Here are some of Coach SchoonV reasons for his choice: Esola, for breaking up opponent's plays. Fox, because his ability is assured in the fact that he scored 200 points during the season. Kberle. becanise he knows how to dribble the ball. Stinpovich. because of his brainy tactics and ability to pass the ball. Schoon picked hfm as captain of the mythical team also.

The North Side A. C. who made a good showing in baseball last jt,r by playing twenty games and winning sixteen, is getting ready for the coming teason and hopes to put a better and stronger nine on the field. During the cold season not much is heard of the North Side A. C and many fans think that the club exists

only in the summer time, jiowever, the club is as strong in the winter as in the s:immer and has been in existence since September, 1918. Tho North Siders had a basketball team during the s-ason that just closed, but due to the fact that this was the

team's first year together, only seven games were played, six of which the North Siders won. Next fall, the North Sider3 hope to have a strong football team. Getting back to baseball, the diamond at Douglas Park, which the North Siders use. i3 being levelled and put in better condition. Credit is due the Illinois Car Co. official!..

who induced the Park Board to put

the diamond into good shape. The

first two rows of trce in the out

playing there. The Park Board has already started work on the diamond and hope to have it in trim by April 23. Bruno Shaeffer, wh managed the team last year was again chosen manager for the coming season. He hopes to have his team in shape by Sunday, Aprtl 23.

LOCAL "PIRATES"

PUT IN PRACTICE

(if th" weather is

good) baseball fans may have an opportunity of seeing another Hammond nine kick the dust of Harrison park in one of their first practice, games of the season. This the Pirate Club, managed by John Harder. In a communication to these columns, the sea-robber baseball men, who say they're going to be pirates on stealing bases this summer, tel! about a practice game they held at Harrison park recently. All of the veterans were there and quite a few rookies. Under the guidance of Manager Harder th; pitchers warmed up and the regulars played a six irning game against the rookies. The veterans won 4 to 3. It was an exciting contest. Kalfna and Kuschel wielded heavysticks, each gathering four hits and scoring three runs. It was a ;jeppy affair and it looks as if the club is ready for another championship. Of the rookies. Prendergast and E. Kaschel show the most talent. Both came from Pittsburgh and should be valuable assets to the team. They are outfielders .which the club sorely needs. All teams wishing rto schedule games should communicate with John Harder or Reinert.
