LIKE CHAMPS
Crimson Upsets Big Ten Lead
ers-De Pauw Downs Butler
in Scrappy Game.
CONFERENCE STANDING.

The knocking Of Minnesota from the
Big Ten leadership by Indiana with a
score of % to 10 featured the play of
| HOOsier college teams Saturday. De
Paw won from Butler, 20 to %; Oak
land City College defeated Mt. Olympus
Independents, SO to 8, and Evansville
downed Merom, q to 21 in the other
Saturday games.
: Gophers right at the start, when San
ford rang the bell from the middle OF
| the floor, and were never hea ded. The
/ score a half time was II to 5, Indiana.
| Coach Lewis, on account of injuries TO
two Of his men, was forced to use a new
combination In the game and his selection
proved to be good one. Sloat, playing
his first game at back guard for the
f.. Crimson, kept the Gopher forwards NOV
ing at all times and sank a field goal
, from the long range
Cofey, center, was Indianas big noise
in the scoring department, the Grim
son pivot man counting five times from
the field. Sanford with two from the
field and three from the foul line also
performed well for the winners. Severin-
son and Hansan played strong games
for Minnesota. Captain hearney, In
jured Gopher leader, was able to get
in the game for only a few minutes and
then was OF little service TO his team
mates.
Machine-like team play and a strong
defense proved too much for Butler
Saturday night at Tomlinson Hall and
the local c0llegians were dowued in
decisive manner by the speedy De Pauw
quintet. Although the final score was
close De Pauw held the upper hand
throughout and while the Pagemen
fought hard, the superiority Of the
Greencastle FIVE was evident at all times.
Walkers team was out In front all the
way and on only one occasion, shortly
before the close Of the first half, "a
Butler pull up to a tie score.
Buffers defense in the first naf was
especially loose and De Pauw forwards
rushed IN for countless shots directly
under the basket, the greater portion Of
which were missed. Butler relied on
long distance shooting for her points and
shortly before the close Of the first half
tied the score at IL all. White, De Pauw
center, got loose at this time for sew
eral closeup shots and the Old Gold led
al half-time, 10 to IL. The Pagemen out
scored the winners in the second half, but
De Pauw played better ball and it was
only poor basket shooting that kept the
score down. Two minutes before the final
gun Butler had crept up to a p to p
score, Tut lacked the punch to send over
a victory White, with five field goals
and Mendenhau with two and some won
derful floor work, were De Pauw's best
offensive players. while Moffett played a
strong game at back guard. Griggs kept
the locals in the running by making good
eleven out of fourteen chances from the
foul line and Hooker counted four times
from the field.

NEW YORK, Feb. Given a touch of
low comedy Is welcome when it serves
to enliven dull winter in baseball. Now
comes William +. Baker, owner of the
Phillies, crying for vengeance on GER
tain National League club owners he
caught tampering with his players. Mr..
Baker would have these moral pirates
chastised and he already has warmed up
a slapstick to swing it at them next
week when the annual schedule meeting
of the league takes place here.
Mr. Baker states an obvious truth
when he solemnly declares he has never
tampered with Z player not employed
by him. There will be none to dispute
this. The lowIy standing of the Phillies,
in fact, proves it. The only way to
tempt a ball player to join the Phillies
is to hit him on the head with club
or offer him the privileges of the Phila-
delphia mint Mr.. Baker never has done
either.

provide for a fine of $1,000 for any owner
