A. A.~U. WOULD SEND STATE
ALL-STAR FIVE TO TOURNEY

The classiest amateur basket ball team
in Indiana will be sent to Kansas City
to compete in the National Amateur Ath-
letic Union basket ball championship
next March in an effort to bring to
Hoosierdom the honors that rightfully
belong here.
Announcement of this fact was made
yesterday by t. Neal Wynne. president
of the Indiana A. A. u, at an informal
luncheon meeting Of the board OF direc-
tors of that BODY yesterday.
Indiana turns out more basket ball
teams than any other State in the
country, and has, in the Indiana High
School Athletic Association, the largest
basket ball organization in the world,
so there is no reason why Indiana should
not easily come to the front with the
greatest amateur basket ball team in the
country. That is the belief Of President
Wynne and he soon will appoint q COM
mittee to investigate the amateur stand
ing Of the leading teams in the State and
pick the one with the best rating to rep
resent Indiana in the big tourney.
MEET USUALLY
LAST OF MARCH.
All expenses of the Indiana team will
be paid by the I. A. A. U. The playing
dates for the tournament have not been
announced by the national championship
COMMITTEES, but 1t is customary to stage
the event during the last week Of March.
The fact that Indiana turns out the
leading younger players was shown by
the work Of the Charlottesville and Win
gate teams last year at which time they
two teams battled their way into the
basket spotlight Of the country by their
victories in the mid Western amateur
and national prep school tournaments.
Charlottesville won the mid Western
amateur tournament played at Cincinnati,
defeating Wingate In the semi-fnRl
round Later the two fives were entered
In the national prep school tourney con-
Quoted Mt Chicago University by Pat
Page, present athletic director at Butler
College, who at that time was assistant
athletic director at Chicago. Wingate
won this meet. and evened the count
with their Charlottesville rivals by de-
feating them in the final round.
After the tournament Page selected
Goldsberry OF Wingate, now playing with
Wabash College, and Shelton and Kirby
Of Crawfordsviile on his all-American
mythical team.
The A A. Q. officials may possibly
consider Wayne Emmelman's tournament
the official amateur meet for this sen son
and they win watch the progress of this
play 80 that they can get line on the
real strength Of the Indiana amateurs.
CHANCE OPEN
FOR HIGH SCHOOLS.
A watchful eye also Will be kept on the
State nigh school teams and it may be
that the ]. II. S. A. A. champs Will be
asked to compete for the right TO repre-

sent this State. In order to do this, the
high Schoolers would have to obtain n
special diEpensation from the board of
control Of their organization, as it was
ruled at recent meeting of the board
that no high school team shall play after
the annual championship tournament
closes. According to Wynne, college
teams registered in the I. A. a. U. also
VIII have the opportunity to play for
Indiana in the national event
Wynne stated yesterday that no def
mite plan for picking the best line
up has been reached, as there are several
college teams In the State eligible US
A. A. Q, outfits, and these and the high
school teams viii not play in Bmmel-
mans tourney. However, it is possible
that the best Of the college, high school
and independent amateur teams in the
A. A. o., one from each class, will play
an elimination series to settle matters.
This chance for national championship
! honors should be a big incentive for the
amateur teams Of Indiana. indianapolis
Is rich in amateur talent this year and
some mighty strong teams are organic
ing for action In the big amateur tourna-
ment, which gives promise OF being big
ger and better this year than It was
last season, when some real basketball
was dished out by the youngsters.
LEGION JOINS
A. A. u. FORCES.
The American Legion as a State or
ganization adopted the standard Of the
Amateur Athletic Union yesterday. Col.
L. R. Gignilliat, State commander of the
American Legion, enthusiastically in
dorsed the action of the legion in join
ing the A. A U. and stated that he will
send letters to every post in the State
urging 1t to send in its individual ap-
plication for membership.
The committe on championships voted
to hold a junior indoor track and field
meet the latter part Of February or early
In March, the exact date to be named
after further arrangements have been
completed. The place has not been Sc

jury Finds Woman Guilty
OF Fraud i'm Sale of Auto
Undertook Mans Job, Must
Take Mans Responsibility,
Saws Judge

"This defendant is apparently wom
an of refinement, but the means she
used we're false and fraudulent, and if a
woman undertakes a mans Job she
must take mans responsibility" said
County Judge Humphrey. of Queens. in
Long Island City, yesterday after a
jury in his court had brought in a vcr-
dict of guilty in grand larceny case
against Mrs. Beatrice Alexander TWEEN
ty-seven years old, of $40 Riverside
Drive.
Mrs. Alexander, who is pretty and
who was expensively gowned when she
appeared in court, was remanded to the
Queens County Jail for sentence Mon
day.
Martin G. Knorr, Of 1116 Wyckoff
Avenue, Ridgewood, was the complain
ant. He said that on June IA last he
saw an advertisement in New York
paper offering an automobile for sale
for $4,000. Mrs. Alexander told him,
he alleged, that the car was 1917
model and had been bought in Phila-
delphia. He said he found after he had
bought the car that it was a 1916
model, bought in New York, and was
appraised at $4,000. He claimed to
have been defrsuded out of $1,000.
Mrs. Alexander's attorney said his
client believed she was telling the
truth and had no intention of defraud-
ing Knorr.
