BASKETBALL
HOLIDAY CLASH
BIG NET EVENT
Wabash-Purdue Game Tonight
Has Important Bearing on
State Title.

CRAWFORDSVILLE Ind, Dec. o.
All is expectancy here as the net fans
wait for the referee to toot the whistle
tonight for the start Of the Purdue
Wabash basket ball scrap, which will
probably be a great struggle between
Two great fves About two weeks ago
the Boilermakers would have been over
Whelming favorites but opinion is now
divided as to the outcome of the court
scrap tonight. The Lafayette team, after
showing Butler under was considered
the class Of the State, but since its mar
row margin Of victory over the Chamber
of Commerce outfit Of Indianapolis dope
has been somewhat revised. The Scarlet
aggregation beat the Commerce team
seven points in the first game of the year,
with hardly any practice behind them:
Purdue, supposed to be hitting on all
cylinders, was forced to the limit for a
victory over the Capital City five. After
hard workouts the Little Giants
sWamped the Lebanon Independents, the
team that defeated Butler.
As the wabash team always fights hard
against the Purdueites, the local fans
are expecting a very close game and
think that Coach Naughan's men will
spring a surprise on the knowing ones
who think Lambert's outfit has slight
edge.
The Wabash athletes have been work
ing hard for the contest and seem to be
III GOOD shape hduEudH pTODdblS Will
start Adam and Crane at forward Colds
berry at center. Burns and Crater at
guard.
Three members of the Lebanon High
/ School basket ball team who won the
State championship in 1918, will be seen
in action on the local floor tonight. Pur-
due claims one of these men in Don
White, floor guard. while wabash claims
the other two-Captain Crater at back
guard and Fred Adams at forward.
Reports from Purdue state that snappy
work outs have been the rule this week
Coach Lambert probably will start the
combination Of Masters and Eversman at
forward Guillion. center; Capt. Miller
and White, guards. The Purdue coach
is carrying six substitutes on the trip,

which has been causing him considerable
trouble. Fearing that he might develop
a permanent injury Vaughan has given
the speedy forward a rest. There is
possibility that he may reioin the squad
late in the season. Burdette stood q
splendid chance of gaining a regular
berth on the team until he met with the

Too Much Money in
Player Deals Bad

Scent Danger in Policy of
Rich Clubs Who Scatter
Coin.

NEW YORK, Dec. $3.50 much money
was thrown to the four winds at the
winter baseball meetings that wise heads
OF the game are scenting the danger Of
commerCiaism.
New York fans will not have their in
terest in the game weakened because the
Giants paid S150OO0, but the enthusiasm
OF the Cincinnati bugs may cool II Herr
mann and Moran don't get them some
thing worth while for that pile Of money.
! Only two clubs in the National League
are able TO pay gigantic sums for star
piayers-the Giants and the Cubs. If
they succeeded in buying every good
prospect in the minors and any star
player they want III the major by out
bidding other clubs, the National League
eventually will reach the situation now
existing In the international League,
where he fans are ready now to hand
he 1922 pennant to Baltimore.
That's when the sing win come.
One Of the bltterest opponents Of
player buying is Branch Hickey, man
ager Of the st. Louis Cardinals, who
turned down $2J0.0O0 bid from the
Giants last winter for Rogers Hornsby.
$500 BID
FOR HORNSBY.
AT the time the offer was made, the
St. Louis club was in tight financial
straits Hickey said, during the recent
meetings. We had several places in
which we could have used S2JO,o00 and
bcIHApS We COuLu nave gotten dlobS VIII
out HOrusby. The fans began 30 mum
bic louder than they had been over a
club THAT wasn't going any 100 good.
We announced we wouldn't sell
HOrnsoy and we didn't. The result was
;be fans gained confidence n he club
aud they began {" come 10 the park. Ap-
parenuy they had the idea thar they
would try 20 make our refusal profitable.
And Il has been.
Tho New York club claims that by
buying big stars they get a great road
team that draws big money into every
park hey visit. Every team In The league
dre walmost as well in 81. Louis as tho
Giants.
The result is that after a year we
are satisfied that we kept Horusby. We
have a club that sincerely believe has
most excellent chance for the peuuaut
neNt season. But that is secondary TO
Tie fact that the fans are with the club
believe In II and II we get q penuaat
