"A great many critics are picking the
Yankees, but I do not rate them a cinch

higgins is satisfied with his team, for
even at this late date he is still trying
to land an outfielder and an infielder.

While Tech failed to uncover anything
spectacular In her sectional games, the
east side boys came across at the right
time, and this after all is the main thing.
The only score that counts is the final
score. Blacks men have shown all sea =

Turner's Take on Ripple
Team in Rubber Scrap;
Win From Pottawattamis

The South Side Turner and JOY Gloom
basketeers, champions of the indianapolis
and Valley Mills amateur sectionals, win
meet at the Turner hall Saturday night
in the third and deciding contest of their
annual three game series. The Turner's
won the first game from the Ripple team
on the Turner floor, then lost to them
shortly after at Broad Ripple. The re-
suits show the teams evenly matched and
a real struggle is expected before the
Saturday night winner is decided.
After being held to a 10 TO 6 score for
the first half, the Pottawattamis came
back with additional speed IN the second
half and forced the Turner club to hustle
for 30 to 81 victory on the Turner floor
last night.
Three rapid-fre field goals by Emil
Harmeson, two from the center Of the
court, pulled the Potts" up to within
four points Of the Turner's with but five
minutes to go, but here the south side
boys turned in to stop a budding rally
and 60 M for better position.
The contest was fast all the way, with
the Turner's doing a lot of clever guard
ing in the first half, and the Pottawat-
tamis switching the tables in the second
session. HeDnessey and Rice got most
Of the Turner points, while Harmeson
was the big star for the losing combina-
ton.
Members of the Pottawattami basket
ball team are requested to take note of
the conceliatl ton Of the game scheduled
