Danville, Feb. 7 The Centre College Colonels defeated the Georgetown Tigers by 28 to 20 at the Danville High School gymnasium tonight. The Georgetown freshmen avenged the defeat of their elders by trimming the young Colonels by 32 to 28 in the preliminary test. Both varsity teams resorted to zone defenses and played slow, cautious games.

Feb. 1 UP) Frank Hunter and Julius Seligson, two of the hardest drivers in the game, reached the final round of the National Indoor Tennis Tournament today. Tomorrow they will fight it out for the championship.

Hunter, the New Rochelle, N. veteran who is ranked second only to Bill Tilden in the country, is heavily favored to capture the title he held eight years ago. He and the Lehigh Collegian have met four times in the past and Seligson never has won. Youth is on Seiigson's side, however, and he demonstrated in the semi-finals this afternoon that he is close to his great form of 1928 when wprs ville by Tennessee in an overtime return game.

The largest crowd of the season is expected to witness the game, judging from the advance sale of tickets.

The Wildcats are in good condition; perhaps better than they have been at any time since the opening game, since both "Spooks" Milward, center, and "Big" McGinnis, guard, have just about recovered from their ailments, which handicapped the team during the past conference games. The elder McGinnis returned to form in the recent clemson game, in which he was hailed as the outstanding star. Mil-ward and Captain McBrayer have been playing the most consistent basketball of any of the 'Cats. Mauer still is undecided about his starting forwards although it is to be expected that "Little" McGinnis and Spicer will receive the first call, with Combs alternating. Milward will jump center and the guards, as usual, will be McBrayer and "Big" McGinnis.

The Cats are not downcast because of their defeat at the hands of the Volunteers, which knocked them cut of a tie for first place in the lodge, feeling that they regained their lost laurels, in a measure, by knocking the Georgia Bulldogs out of the picture. That defeat, along with the loss at the hands of the Creighton sharpshooters earlier in the season, should serve only as a means of getting those defeats out of the way before the conference tournament at Atlanta the first of March.

Special to The Courier -Journal Richmond, Feb. 7. For the first time this season injuries and illness have cakened the Eastern Kentucky State Teachers' College basketball team.

Crisler, however, is said to have the backing of Fred Luehring, director of athletics and a former Chicago letter-man at the time William Spaulding resigned in 1924, it was said today. Luehring recommended him for the post which was subsequently filled by Dr. Spears. Crisler is one of the immortals of University of Chicago ahtletics.

No mention was made in The Tribune's article of the salary to be paid Crisler, but it was expected to be less than $10,000 annually.

Triplett's Shoulder Hurt. Henry Triplett, veteran back guard, suffered a recurrence of an old shoulder injury in the final minutes of the Centre game and it is doubtful that he will play any more this season. It is almost certain that he will not see action against Berea, and Insko probably will start at guard in his place. Herman Hale has been suffering from a severe cold for nearly two weeks. He played part of the Centre game with his temperature considerably above normal and yesterday morning he was said to be threatened with even worse than a mere cold.

At any rate, he may not get to play against the Mountaineers and if he does play he can hardly last the entire game. Who Coach Turkey Hughes will use to replace the mountaineer from Carr Creek is uncertain. It is probable that Henry Spurlock, who is considerable of a long shot artist, will get the call. Spurlock has not seen much action this year, but has played very good ball when the occasion demanded it. Hold Victories Over Foes.

All three of the teams that Eastern has vet to play have been defeated by the Maroons this season. The Berea quintette succumbed by a 32 to 29 score; Georgetown was nosed out by a 20 to 19 count in the final seconds of play and Wesleyan fell by a 25 to 16 score after leading at the half. 11 to 7.

Walsh, son of "Big Ed" Walsh, former ace of the White Sox pitching staff. Young Walsh, who is 22 years old, six feet four inches tall and weighs 205 pounds, will report to Manager Shawkey with the first Yankee squad. Since his brother, Ed Walsh, left the University of Notre Dame to join the White Sox, young Robert has been a Notre Dame pitching star. Taught many of the tricks of the pitching trade by their accomplished father before they entered college, the two boys have been stars in intercollegiate baseball. Robert Walsh is said to combine ability to hit with his pitching skill, and some scouts have suggested that he would be a success as a major league outfielder, if his pitching should fail to meet the exacting requirements of the big time.

Ed Walsh, is' now a scout for the White Sox. The Yankees also announced that Henry Johnson, a pitcher who suffered last season from an injury to his spine, had, advised the club that he had fully recovered and would leave tomorrow for Hot Springs, to take the baths preparatory to reporting at St. Petersburg February 23.
