ROOTERS BACK TEAMS IN SPIRITED GAMES AT BASKET CARNIVAL

A large crowd -witnessed the Com munlty Service net carnival games played Monday night In the Coliseum.; Both sides of the Coliseum were filled , with Interested spectators. Many j ll a r Vpt3 nf t v 1 t iiaanwvtiirA toamv worn I on hand to lend spirit to the occasion. Three girls games and two men's games furnished the attraction for the evening, and the girls' exhibition of the court game was good enough to make the spectators sit up and take notice. All the girls played fine games and credit must be given them for the spirit shown by. all contestants.! In the first feminine exhibition of the evening, the All-Commercials won a. hard fought game from the Atlas team. 12 to .7. - This game was nip and tuck from start to finish, close guarding and accurate passing were the main features of the game. . Gloves Walk Away. Gloves walked away from the Clerks in the Becond girl's game, by a of 22 to 4 score. F. F. Sibber!, of the winners, seemed to have an uncanny eye for the basket, registering six field goals and the same number from the free throw line. E. Sittloh, also of the winners, played a good passing . game and registered twice from the Held. Palladium triumphed over the Elkhorn representatives in the first men's game of the evening by a 19 to 8 score. The score should have been larger for the winners, but the passwork and floorworking ability for which they are noted, seemed ragged, and they missed many attempts for. easy goals. Atlas Specials won from the A1IAmericans in the final girls' game, by a score of 19 to 10. This gam was well played, both teams working the ball down the floor In fine style. In the final game of the evening, Betsy Ros3 won out over the Schroeder Drug team by a 24 to 14 score, after the latter had held the Betsies to a two-point lead, throughout the contest A final burst of speed by the winners in the last few minutes of play gave them the game by a 10-point margin.

Xew York's population, recently augmented by au influx of heavyweight boxers, temporarily will go up one more today with the expected arrival of Jack Dempsey, the champion of them all. His man ager. Jack Kearns is expected to rome in Dempsey's wake tomorrow or Thursday. Nothing in a business way Is expected of the champion until Kearns' advent When the latter arrives, however, agreements probably will be made for at least two bouts for the champion this summer, one with Jess Willard, from whom he won the titte aud a second, provided he survives the first one of the aspirants who never had held the crown. Dempsey's second match of the year may be with the winner of the IjU'.s Firpo-Bill Brenan match which will b eheld March 12 and still it may be with the survivor of the Floyd Johnson-Tom Gibbons bout, also planned for next month. There were reports today that Tex Uickard plans holding a bout between Dempsey and Firpo in Argentine, native land of the Latin challenger. Howard Thompson refereed the two men's games at the Coliseum Mondaynight in a clever manner. He had no trouble during the two games, and his decisions were all certain. Young Thompson bids fair to develop into a very competent official of the court game.

Bills, of Lewisville, has been. secured as one official for the tourney. ,

Just as everybody was on the p.jiu of acclaiming John McGraw the greatest baseball manager of all time, a bloke steps forward in megaphone fashion and querries: '"Hey, do you think McGraw could have won a pennant in 1914 with those misfit Braves or won in 1915 with those terrible Philadelphia Phillies?, And how about the Dodgers in 1916, the Reds in 1919, or that awful gang known as the Dodgers of 1920?" All of whk'h serves as food for reflection. But even before the reflection is well under way, the same bloke swings in again with the verbal hammer, towit: "McGraw has been wonderfully successful as a team leader but why shouldn't he have been successful? There hasn't been a year in the last 15 that he hasn't had a huge fortune at his command for use at a.ny time in the purchase of players needed to cinch a penant for him. He used it, bought star players at the psychological moment and pennants have been the result. - No Credit Due. "Instead of getting excited about John winning, something like eight pennants, he ought to be panned for failure to win every pennant since 1911. For only once since then has he started the season with a ball club that was not truly great. "He has always had under him just about the best baseball aggregation in the National league.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

Saturday's Basket Tourney I Photos IK .. X ..i. has had the greatest pitchers, the greatest fielders, the greatest batters. Almost any dub manager, given the bulk of the best players in his circuit, could win as many flags as McGraw did. t , "If McGraw is such a miracle man, why didn't he win in 1914, 1915, 1916 and 1920. In all of those years, barring possibly 1915, he had the greatest collection of basehallers in America. "Look at 1914. McGraw had Merkle; Herzog, Doyle, Fletcher, Burns and Snodgiass all great ones then; all in the hey-dey of their careers. He had Meyers, Wilson and McLean back of the plate. il had Matty. Marquard,, Tesreau Wiltse and Demaree five slingers who' were' shooting along in meteoric fashion just then. Lacked Great Players. "Up in Boston, George Stahl had a club made up of players who were either castoffs or misfits. Beyond Evers and Maranville, there wasn't a really great player on the team. Yet that pair, plus Butch Schmidt, Charlie Deal, Hann, Whitte, Cather, Connolly, Moran, Gowdy, James, Tyler and Rudolph beat the Giants to the October wire. : "If McGraw is-the greatest manager, why couldn't he lead his stars successfully " against' a group of the worst misfits that ever made up a major league ball club? "In. 1915 McGraw lost some of his players. His club, through those losses slipped to a point where it was not superior to its foemen. Everybody had an even-Stephen chance with the Giants. And the Giants finished absolutely last. You see, McGraw was up against it that year. He didn't have the best of it. He didn't have the bulge on the opposition. That was the real test of his career. Had he won a pennant in 1915 he could be ranked as the greatest of them all. But McGraw finished in the cellar. McGraw Had Stars "Anyone who compares the 1916 Giants with the 1916 Dodgers can find that McGraw had a greater team in practically every department of play. He had stara; Wilbert Robinson had Merkle, Daubert, Cutshaw, Mowrey, Olson, Marquard, Cheney, Smith all castoffs of other clubs. But the Dodgers won the pennant. "Pep, McGraw has won more flags than any leader in the game. You can't take that away from him. But when it comes to terming him the greatest manager of all time, that's stretching things in his favor. Rather than get enthused about hi3 winning eight championships, there seems to be justification for souring on John because, with the great ball clubs he has directed, he didn't win at least 15 pennants and as many world championships." (Copyrlsht 1921 Dy Klnfif Feature Syndicate, Iur.) - DOUBLE-HEADER BILL SET FOR WEDNESDAY Burroughs basketball quintet, under the auspices of "Bill" Friede, will hold a basketball bill in the Coliseum Wednesday night, the first game starting at 7:30 o'clock and the second at 8:30 o'clock. There will 'be. no delay. The Burroughs management has secured the Palladium and Richmond Piston Ring teams to play the first game of the double affair, while the Fountain City K. of P. athletes will meet the fast going Burroughs lads in the second fray of the evening. Fans should be able to have- all the basketball they desire in this bill, which is expected to be fast throughout the entire route. Tickets are being sold by members of the competing teams. Girl Basket ball Player Shows Unusual Ability One especially clever girl player has been developed in the Community Service girls' basketball league thus far this season." She is F. Libbert, of Gloves' team, whch won from the Clerks in the second girls game at the Coliseum Monday night. ' -Miss Libbert made six field goals and connected for six straight foul goals, without a miss. She shows a better eye for the basket than many of the male players on various local teams.

Harry Greb, Pittsburgh battler, successfully defeated his American light heavyweight boxing title Monday night against Hilly Shade, of California, in a 12-round bout which went the full route. ; Practically every round was won by Greb. but he was booed continually after the fifth round by fans for his light attacks. Both fighters left the ring without material blemishes, but they fought hard while in the ring. At not time did either boxer strike a blow which was hard enough to dampen the ardor of the other.

Reports from Peru revealed the existence of the Peru Racing Pigeon club. The pigeons used by the Peru club were owned by tho government and carried messages during the war. "Under favorable conditions they will fly as much- a.3 500 and sometimes 600 miles between sunup and sundown," said F. J. Wiener, secretary of the Peru club.

HOOSIER COURTSHIP

Followers of the Franklin college basketball team are up in the air over the coming game with Earlham on the Franklin court Franklin defeated Wabash by a four point margin, recently, but since Earlham . defeated Wabash by a 12 point .margin, the Franklinites believe that they had underestimated Earlham. just a bit. At any rate. Coach Wagner has made his plan3 such that he can be prepared for a big fight from Mowe's Quakers next Friday night. Here Is a good action picture of two centers Jumping for the ball. They both have unusually good form in playing their positions. They both have left their feet at the same time in an effort to tip the ball, but as is seen, the one player has the advantage by means of his height. Both have one hand behind the back, where it belongs and an equal effort is being made to tip the ball. If the Earlham men get to hitting the baskets at Franklin without much trouble before the game with Franklin, the Baptists are going to have trouble. Hoosier believes that it is but a matter of getting accustomed to the surroundings. The Quakers are bound to come to the front at Franklin, if the conditions are adaptable. It surely would be some trick if Earlham could take a fall out of the fast Franklin athletes. Glen Chapman, son of Sheriff Dan Chapman, and star forward on the Cambridge City high school team, has entered Morton high school, Richmond, and will don a Red and White uniform at once. Tie will report to Coach Little and get accustomed to Richmond's style of play. He is exceedingly fast, a good dribbler and has an excellent eye for the basket. His entrance into the high school may solve the problem which has been evident all season, and that is the lack of a good foul goal shooter.; Chapman made 10 out of 13 attempts in the Cathedral game at In dianapolis last Saturday night, and caged five goals during the fray. Coach Little's athletes meet Wabash high school here Friday night in a 40 minute tilt, then on Saturday, they -journey to Hagerstown to comRED PEPPER HEAT ENDS RHEUMATISM Red Pepper Rub takes the "ouch" from sore, stiff, aching joints.

Coach Little in tends to whip his athletes into trim for the game and do all he can to win by a large margin.

With the addition of Chapman to the first squad, some lively competition for berths is expected. Chapman is the crack forward from Cambridge City high school, who has been holding that school up with his brilliant play during the past term. Camera Shop Kewpies will play the Eaton ex-high school basketball team in the fir6t game of the evening at the Coliseum . Friday night, preliminary to the Morton-Wabash high school game.
