WABASH READY
FOR FRAY HERE
GOldsberry at Forward Sta

Here Tomorrow.

CRAWFORDsVILLE, Ind. Feb. A.
A lineup, different from the one that
last appeared under Scarlet colors In
Indianapolis, will be seen when Wabash
Ulkes the floor against Butler College on
Tuesday night. Coach Pete Vaughan. in
an effort to overcome the "staleness"
which seems to have attacked the Little
Giant crew, has made a change in his
team. Instead of Goldsberry playing at
center, he will be shifted to forward.
Thorn, who has been used as a sub, will
jump at center. Schanlaub will be on
the sidelines. The guards Will remain as
they are, Burns and Crater.
The fact that Wabash lost to State
Normal at Terre Haute, while Butler beat
Normal there, has not been the cause for
alarm here. Wabash followers are of the
opinion that the Little Giants will take
the Bulldogs down the line Tuesday.
They are not figuring on comparative
scores.
Baseball and track practice is In nearly
full swing here now. Three members
OF the victorious relay team that grabbed
| the two mile event in the Drake meet
last year, are out to show their wares.
There is fair amount Of new material
on hand. Coach Graves has his thinly
clads out each afternoon. The first meet
comes early next month.

call for battery men. A number of them

ties will meet In the last game OF the
tournament. The Pottawattamis and
Diamond Chain team play curtain
raiser and the big game will start at
SIS o'clock
The two are undoubtedly the class of
local amateur teams, for their victories
over their opponents were decisive
enough to leave no doubt as to which
was the stronger team. Each met some
hard opponents, but produced the re-
CURED class I'm the emergency. They
were favored to reach the nnals before
the start Of the meet. Added interest is
given this last scrap, for the two strong

each other. No two teams could have

game Of them all
This will he the third time the Turner'S
and Y NJ. II. \. have faced each other
this season. The Jewish lads won the
first game by a decisive margin and the
Turner's COPIED the second one recently
by just about as large a margin.
The Turner's will be handicapped to a
certain extent in the game Tuesday night
for they will be minus the basket eye of
Hank" Stevens. The Turner star will
be unable for duty and his absence de-
tracts considerably from Turner chances
to win However, the Turner's are fight
ing fnishers and Rice, Underwood and
Mlddlesworth have displayed enough
speed to warrant the assertion that they
will be a mighty hard bunch to stop.
The Jewish lads have one Of the steadiest
combinations in the State in the two
