WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27. 1946 IF SO WHY? By V. BLAINE PATTOX, Sports Editor The Star gUSINESS is picking up over at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway offices. "Cotton" Henningr, who for a few months was our back-door neighbor here at The Star, entered two of his mechanical babies in the 500-mile gasoline classic yesterday. Recently "Cottoa" moved his baggage out to one of the garages at the West 16th Street plant.

The two cars are owned by Mike Boyle, the Chicago labor leader. ONE OF THE creations, an Italian Maserati, is the same car which Wilbur Shaw drove in the last three races and will be piloted by Ted Horn. The other will be driven by George Connors. -THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR PAGE II Tech Will Face Well-Balanced Foe In Regional Debut Danville Five Victorious In 20 Cage TQts Greenclads' Opponent In High School Tournament Wheel Alignment and Balancing aprctalli in lh eorrwtloa tirr wft, car pulllni to aid nd hlmmy.

Boh Freerian. Chicago. Feb. 26 (UP) The Big Ten's "problem child," the University of Chicago, will occupy the attention of Conference athletic directors at a meeting here March 8-9. It was reported today.

Chicago's presence in the basketball picture, it is contended, throws the entire championship race out of balance and mnkes a fair settlement of the cage title impossible.

Their current winning skein has now reached something tories, while the three schools not on the Chicago schedule have much tougher drives toward a Big Ten title.

Of the seven top teams In the present Big Ten standing, Northwestern alone did not have the "cushion" afforded by playing Ten cage competition this season after a one-year lay-off and again was hopelessly outclassed. The Maroons lost all 12 league games by decisive margins to run their string of Conference setbacks to 60 straight. Chicago has not won a league game since the 1940 campaign. THOMAS O'NEIL, manager of the Indianapolis branch of the Ford Motor Company, is throwing a press and radio buffet party at the Columbia Club in the interest of the Speedway this afternoon. "An announcement of interest to the motor world is expected," according to the inside dope.

PATTOX: It is about time for "youse guys" to dig the old crystal ball out of storage, shake the moth balls out of the thinking cap and go into a "transom," or something. Anyhow, you'll be Interested to know that while there has been a change in the presidency of the American Association, there isn't going to be any slackening in what is done for "we-uns" of the pencil-pushing brigade. In other words, you're all invited to gulp hard and then come up with the order in which the American Association clubs will finish the 1946 season.

The rewards for the heavy thinkers will be the same as in the past, $25 for the heaviest, then $20, then $15, then $10, six of $5 each, and to the one whose "think-tank" was most befuddled, one simoleon.
