LONDAS FALLS
BEFORE REYNOLDS

This was a sad day for the Greeks of
this city for last night their pride and
joy, young Londas, was thrown twice by
Jack Reynolds in the main bout of the
wrestling show staged at the Broadway
Theater. The men are welterweights.
LOndas and his toe hold did not seem
much good against Reynolds cleverness
and the Greek found his own Pet hold
being applied TO his own anatomy in
the first fall, which came after thirty
five minutes and fifty seconds OF wres-
thing. The announcer called the hold a
japanese toe hold, but whatever II was,
Reynolds had the Greek foot and leg
under his good right arm trying 10 twist
it of when Londas decided he had
enough.
The second fall cam as the result
Of the leg split" which Reynolds has
made a byword in local ranks. Both
wrestlers were in good condition and
quick as lightning. The large crowd
enjoyed the match. Jack Dillon refereed.
In the second preliminary match. Hol-
lender OF New Orleans and Happy Hynes
of Terre Haute. the Southern grappler
knew too much for the Hoosier and
gained the first fall in fourteen minutes
and fifty seconds with a hammer Jock
and the second fall IN forty five seconds
with a wrist lock.
Shorty Burch and his green tights
failed 10 blind Sam Davis and Shorty
was thrown the first tome in four min
utes and the second time In thirty sec
onds. Shorty could not find a word TO
say It was all over so fast.

BILLIARDS
FIVE
FACES BUTLER
Yale Basket Transformers
Tackle Pagemen at Tomlin-
son Hall Tonight.

The big intersectional basketball game
of the season awaitu local fans at Tom
linson hall tonight, when Butler clashes
with Yale at 40 o'clock
Yale has been faring badly on her Ohio
invasion, but has been losing to good
teams and these defeats have served to
stimulate rather than deaden interest in
tonight's game, as they have shown that
the big Eastern school Is not inyincible.
Many local fans expect Butler to win
tonight and the Iryington five will have
the well wishes of one Of the largest mum
Der of enthusiasts who ever witnessed a
game here, If pre-game indications re-
suit in the turnout expected.
1t will be a clear case Of the Western
type of basket ball against he Eastern
style, for Coach Page is a Chicago prod
net and is teaching the Western type.
Yale Is expected to rely on a powerful
defense and a stressed passing game for
closeup shots, while Butler is expected
TO pay its usual attention TO clever floor
work and long shots.
A probable Butler starting lineup
would be Hooker and Brown, forwards !;
Leslie, center, and Middlesworth and Col
way, guards.

TIGERS BRACED
FOR ATTACK OF
PURDUE SQUAD
De Paw Hopes Run High for
Tonight, Despite Strength
of Boilermakers.
CLASH AT GREENCASTLE
BASKETBALL

GREENCASTLE, Ind. Dec. S0-With
a, week Of practice behind them and a
clean slate Of victories backing them,
members Of the De Paw basket ball team
viii face Purdue, the school that de-
Ieated their old rival, Wabash, here at
30 o'clock in what is expected to be one
OF the best games of the season.
Thus far, the Tigers have won every
game on their net card, defeating Earl
nam, NoIre pane, Indiana and North
western by decisive scores. If the Old
G S1 men win tonight, they will have
gone long way toward obtaining the
State championship.
Conditions seem to favor the De Pauw
Dasketeers. They will be playing to-
night on their home court on which they
nave played all Of their contests of the
present season. In addition, the Tigers
have had time TO profit in holiday DTac-
tice by what they learned from experi-
eHce IN thelr four opening games. More
over, the Purdue squad probably will
ne ne somewhat tagged as a result OF the
nave not had a game since Dec o.
Dopesters have given the De PAW
team the edge in the tilt. but this does
not not win the game. Wabash fans felt con-
ndent or victory, but Purdue defeated
their team last night. 81 to 25. But de-
spite dope, it is known that both the
PURDUE and De Paw teams are COM
posed Of veteran players who will fight
from whistle to whistle. 1t must also
conceded to have the strongest net team
IN the Western Conference.
Captain Mendenhau; Cannon, White,
Young and Moffett, the Speed Five" of
De PAW. are considered by many critics
to be good enough to face any quintet in
the country, including the best Big Ten
team composed Of Masters, Eversman,
Gulll1on. White and Miller.
Northwestern slowed the Tiger scoring
machine by the five-man defense but It
Is said that the Old Gold men have per-
fected an offensive that Will prevent this
happening again. 1t is also rumored
that during the week Of practice the
Tigers have developed a defense Of q
challenging nature, with Tubby Moffett,
back guard, as its basis
Members Of the De PAW squad are re-
ported as being In good condition for
the game. Cannon, who has been suffer-
ing from a severely spralned thumb, Is
said to be playing in tip-top form with
the aid Of a special thumb brace and
bandage. Tiny Hirt. who suffered an
injured knee just after the Northwestern
game, is back in form again
Coach Walker is expected to start his
regular lineup at the opening of the
Purdue game with Cannon and Captain
Mendenhall as forwards, White at center,
Young as floor guard, and Moffett at
back guard. Coach Lambert will prob
ably start Masters and Eversman as for
wards. GuiNion at center, and WhttA and
Miller as guards.

six field goals in his first appearance
this season with the locals. Bassett went
IN for o. Behrent when the latter was
chased to the showers on four personal
fouls.
The visitors exhibited some smart
handling of the ball in the first period
and although unable to advance the
sphere down the floor, held the EN-
Roes to a II to 10 count. In the last
period, however, the old-time EmRoe
offensive got going and a big count was
run up, the locals making a number Of
sensational long shots in addition to the
fast under-the basket work of H.
Behrent The visitors were almost en-
tirely without an offensive and seemed
TO be away off when 1t came to shoot
ing at long range. Sermon, forward for
the visitors, counted all his teams points
on two field goals and eight foul losses.
