Tueidoy, februory 3, 1953 THE INDIANAPOLIS NEWS Pog 8 Two Quints Will Tumble Out of North Central Treetop Friday SHOOT IN' 'EM S3 STOPPIN' 'EM It's Muncie-Kokomo, Tech at Richmond By J. E. O'BRIEN Two of the four high school basketball teams that are welching down the North Central Conference treetop will have limbs sawed from beneath them Friday night. ARE YOU READY FOR THE CONTESTS? IN THRF.F. WEEKS Slmotin' 'Em will the fans more Ihnn "(VI dinners to he richt alwiiit the outcome of baske I hall games In Indiana.

In the fil Sectional tourneys nil hut nf the games needed to determine Indiana's AM state champion will be played. Shoot in' 'Krn'n first contest blank of the 1053 scries will rail for the naming of the fil Sectional champions. As the gaums by, this task seems to he taking on additional liaards. Of course, jou really don't have to figure nut just how each Came of each Sectional will come out, hut to ho in touch with the possibilities of upset you should study each of the Sectional fields. And before there anvs any dilliculty with your I'ncle Sam about Shootin' 'Kin's contest blanks fnK for Sectional, then for Regional and finally for the Sweet Sixteen, tie it hereby understood that the prizes will be the same as ever, namely none whatever.

Some people say an intimate knowledge of the teams in some Sectionals is an added obstacle. This is probably true. I'm sure people in Indianapolis will have less trouble naming the Evansville Sectional champ than will the people in Evansville. You Indianapolis fans may have your minds made tip on which team will win in South Rend, but South Renders are piobably as doubtfuT about their tournament as you are almut the lndianaolis Sectional. It is true, however, that a little light on the Sectional sub-jects is apt to reveal the darkest of horses.

Do you have any tips on the likely long shots?

Anderson Ft. Wayne, one of the few metropolitan areas in Indiana where the teams apparently haven't been tossed into a Mixmaster, has an important city game scheduled Friday Central against North Side. Central's only defeat inside the corporation limits has been to North Side, itself unconquered so far by Ft. Wayne rivals. CITY FUSS AT GARY TOMORROW A city fuss at Gary tomorrow night matches Wallace against Froebel.

If Froebel wins, it will move alongside Wallace atiip the Northern Conference's Western Division. Washington of East Chicago will attempt to improve its 5-2 league record against Tol-leston of Gary Friday night. Over in the Eastern Division of that circuit the big one's coming up February 18 Central of South Bend vs. Elkhart. Elkhart, whose only three defeats were stuffed into the first two weeks of January, has a Friday date with Riley of South Bend.

The state's four other unbeaten clubs will be busy this week. Ossian will try for its 19th Saturday at Rock Creek; Middle-town will shoot for its 18th at home Friday against Summit-ville; North Webster will go for No. 17 and 18 against Ligonier tonight and Syracuse Saturday, and Reelsville will be trying for the same numbers against Ash-boro tomorrow and RusselMlle Friday. Silver Creek, which could become a Sectional nuisance for Jeffersonville, takes a two-game trip upstate, playing Wabash Friday and Peru Saturday. at Lloyd's Rent a Tux (or any Formal Wear) Tou'll Mke the Fine Quality Correct Fit Low Rates All Accessories Provided AITW 111 Kokomo's Kats, occupying the top branch on their 7-1 record, will be at home to Central or Muncio, beaten once in seven family fusses.

Tech will risk its 5-1 record at Richmond, which is tied with Muncie for second place. Rack when Muncie was still unbeaten, Coach Jay McCreary nominated three teams as the most likely to defeat his Bearcats namely, Central of South. Bend, Tech and Kokomo. The first two enhanced i reputation as a seer, and McCreary is aware that the Kokomo floor O'Brien could make him too perfect a picker. Kokomo, of course, ill be out to atone for the Saturday night kicking it took from Peru just after scalping Anderson's Indians in their own wigwam.

Tech can't expect to surprise Richmond with a control game, for Coach Art Beckner also favors the deliberate style. There's no need to inform the Green-clads that Lamar Lundy, Richmond's 6.6 center, is the fellow to stop. Muscular Jeffersonville, the only unbeaten survivor among the major teams, will try for its 17th victory Friday night at home against Tell City. Tell City's Marksmen apparently righted themselves again last WPre by beating New Albany a disastrous 41 -point de after feat by Huntingburg and a trouncing by Oakland City. HUNTERS DUE TO BAG LEAGUE CROWN Huntingburg, incidentally, apt pears to be a shoo-in for the Southern Conference crown in spite that setback by Central of Evansville.

Even should the Hunters lost another in their three remaining league games, they could take the title on percentage points. They're up against Boonville Friday night. Connersville and Southport, co-leaders of the South Central Conference with 5-1 marks, have tough competition Friday in Shelbyville and Columbus, respectively. Aurora, still perfect after eight Southeastern Conference battles, can wrap up the title by beating Scottsburg the same evening. Salem (11-1) has to contend with Mitchell.

In the Central Conference, Alexandria (8-0) will take on El-wood Friday night and Tipton (7-1) will face Burris of Muncie. Tipton, already giving Kokomo something to worry about in the Sectional, has Shortridge as its house guest tomorrow evening. Hl recent all-city (since 'IHi selections? And, incidentally, to apologize publicly for a serious oversight. First, friend Paul Ilarbaiigh has written a complaint regarding my pick of Rill Ralph, of Shortridge. over June Jessee, of Rroad Ripple.

I found the protest thoroughly iincxx-rtod. While other memliers of my teams possibly were open to argument, I thought Ralph, Gardner and Sexson were beyond reproach. The most important factor in winning basketball games Is scoring points. A victorious point total overbalances any quantity of class, polish, and finesse. What Rill Ralph lacked in dribbling or pass-stealing, he more than made up in regular, game-aftergame high scoring.

According to Karnaugh, "Ralph was good just because he was taller than the other hoys." Rill stood fi.5 and was no taller than many centers he opposed, including Jessee, Englorth, Zoblie, etc. Yet Rill for three years either led or ranked very high among Ihe Indianapolis players. Dave never could stand with Ralph in the point-producing department. Let Paul cringe to think what would have happened to Ralph "had he tried to play at guard." Rill, a big man. was born to play at center, and he played the position with confidence, authority, high ability and high sportsmanship.

In inding up my case, and a good one it is, I'd like to employ a metaphor. King George Mikan acquired his title by dumping in huge quantities'of points, and the all-round line center work of Alex Groza and several others was rewarded by no knightings. Ball-handling is important, sure, for it helps up the points which are scored bv big lads like Rill Ralph. Lastly, my thanks to Johnny Riddle, the fine sophomore halfback of Rutler's football team, for reminding me of the above-mentioned serious oversight. I neglected to use Cathedral's Don Roeder, a top scorer, on the second team where I should have established him at a forward spot.

Never mind whom I would oust to use Don it would only start another argument. JF.RRY N. WILLIAMSON Vignettes of Basketball "Whose wit in the combat, as gentle at bright Ne'er carried a heart-itain away on iti blade," When 1 go to Kokomo for a basketball game. I sit in the balcony press box. At some intermission, I usually move back a row or two to have a chat with a gentleman who never misses a game.

Raskctball means much to him. His name is Earl VV. Turner. He knows the game of basketball pretty well knows it from the point of view of a father whose son played the game with great determination and a goodly measure of skill. It was 10 years ago that his boy Jack graduated from Kokomo High School.

Not long after this Jack entered I'ncle Sam's Air Force. He was at Maxwell Field almost ready for another graduation-this time as a pilot when death came. Jack's dad is a successful manufacturer now. In bis early days he was just one of the workers in a shop. He usually arrived early, staved late.

F.venetually he invented the Turner Tinier, designed especially for the Model T. Now the Turner Manufacturing Co. is the author of those Utile wheelwrights that mechanics put on to balance your automobile wheels. The gym in the Kokomo fieldhouse is not the only room that Is close to Mr. Turner's heart.

On the main floor there is the Jack Turner Memorial Room. There you will find an oil portrait of Jack done by Randolph Coates, and portraits of two other Kokomo high school boys who lost their lives in the service. Turner made a substantial contribution to the fieldhouse building fund and wise minds in Kokomo decided there should be a room in the buildiing dedicated to the Ixtys and girls ol Kokomo High School who serve their country in its hour of need. Silver Creek has turned out to be a bunch of goal minors. W.F.F.

Jr. Olymps in Twin With no pro wrestling championship bout this week (unless mat fans can't wait any longer in that protesf-referee-suspension drama) and no prominent high school game for competition, the Olymps can shoot for the house record of 7,184 tonight. The season's third pro basketball double-header comes into being at 7:30 tonight in the Butler Fieldhouse with the league's best turnstile-turners, the Minneapolis Lakers included. The Milwaukee Hawks, who have been traveling far and wide slaying big dragons, will tangle with New York, Kastern Division leader, in the opener, and the Lakers, ahead in the West, will take on the Olymps. Indianapolis itself has had some of that giant-killing stuff the Hawks use rub off on them, including victories over Rochester, Boston and Syracuse in the last three home games.

The Olymp management hopes that achievement will attract a new season's best crowd which now stands at 6,105 in the first twin bill. In the house where the pros and the collegians live, however, two high school guests Crispus Attucks and Howe have pulled the most, those last Friday night. Two of Ihe best individual climbing jobs in the league scoring ladder will be on display. Jack Nichols, of Milwaukee, finally making it to ihe select group predicted of him before a NBA SCORING r. kt 4 1 20B TP Avj.

Bob, 23, is a catcher who hit just under .300 at Seattle. Rob has the necessary competitive spirit and ambition. The other Wilson also is named Hob. He is a second baseman who came to us in the Fain deal. He played with Indianapolis last year and could heln us in a utility role.

Our pitching is good but we lack a "stopper," a fellow who can pitch every fourth day and be reasonably sure of coming thiough with a well-pitched game. Somebody like Allie Reynolds, Bob Lemon or Hobby Shantz. Newcomers Tommy Byrne. Rob Keegan and Mike Fornielos should help. Byrne is an old Yankee and Keegan also was with New York as a farm hand.

Our big four should be Billy Pierce, Saul Rogovin, Marv Grissom and Joe Dobson. Bill Kennedy, Luis Aloma and Harry Dorish form a fine bullpen.

That King Laker, George Mikan, now is third (up only one, but the going is harder up there) with a 20.2 mark. The Olymps and Hawks carry their battle for fourth and last playoff spot to the same arena, if not in direct combat. Milwaukee lost an 80-78 overtime de cision to Rochester at Ruffalo last night and dropped out of a tie with Indianapolis back into fifth place. Indianopolit hat won 2 of 6 games with Minneapolis this season, but the Olymps may come up short-handed. Mel Payton missed the Baltimore trip over the week end, and his injured back may still hamper him.

The double-header idea, which has encouraged the Olymp management to stick it out for the season, incidentally, isn't new in Indianapolis. On December 13, 1918, there was a BAA twin bill here, with the Chicago Stags beating Baltimore, 75-70, and the New York Knicks defeating the Indianapolis Jets, 80-74. The crowd was 6,812. The Olymp officials plan to break up the solid evening of basketball tonight with between-halves shows. The first will be physical strength demonstrations (Hide your phone books) and the second a tramp clown bicycle act.

Rand music, too. If all this doesn't work, the Olymps may just have to schedule some pro wrestling between halves. A. A. The second place teams in both divisions moved up on the Milton.

The Syracuse Nationals crept to within a half-game of pace- setting New York in the Eastern section by trouncing the Baltimore Bullets, 98-77. Red Koeha, former Oregon State star, led the Nats' attack with 31 points, hitting 11 of 15 shots from the floor. The Rochester Royals won an overtime struggle from the Milwaukee Hawks, 80-78, when Bob Da vies drove in for the deciding basket with only 3 seconds remaining in the extra session. Davies caged 29 points, and his back court partner, Bobby Wanzer, scored 22.

Bill Calhoun notched 23 markers for Milwaukee. WW Max Zaslofsky, third highest scorer in the history of the NBA, will be lost to the New York Knickerbockers for the rest of the season. Zaslofsky broke the middle finger on his right hand in a game against Syracuse last week, and it was announced yes- terday that it II take at least two months to heal. www A broken ankle has sent Kevin O'Shea. former 'Notre Dame star, back into action for the Raltimore Bullets.
