Notre Dame plays Iowa at Notre
Dame. Friday night. School is dis
missed for the Christmas holidays
Friday afternoon, but it is safe to
say that half the student body will
remain for the game Friday night.
Fear Iowa
Iowa comes to Notre Dame for the
last pre-holiday game with i'll omen
preceding it. The Hawkeyes served
up a defeat to the powerful Wabash
quintet Saturday night. The Little
Giants are proverbially strong and
unless they are in one Of their cen
tennial off-years Iowa has a power
full quintet that will give the Irish
full evening.
Notre Dame is working hard. The
team has only been together since
Dec l and in spite of the excellent
early season showing, Coach Keogan
is putting them through a stiff series
Of scrimmages.
On New Court
The development of the team is
evidenced in the attendance. Notre
Dame is playing on her own court,
one of the finest in the mid west.
During the South Bend era, when
the games We're played down town
and only a part of the student
body could be accommodated, outside
interest in the game dropped to al
most nothing except reading in
terest.
But already the team and the new
gym have won such comment that
the Armour game was played before
5000 people and the Minnesota
game before a crowd that exceeded
$500.

Yr7 the old order OF things
changing in Big Ten bas-
ketball circles? There seem:
to be a growing tendency to get
away from the rough, body check
ing type of play that has been the
style in the Western Conference
A number of the coaches are "see-
ing the light"
An indianapolis official has
been called the best referee that
ever worked in the Big Ten
games. He probably called twice
as many fouls as the older order
of whistle tOOters in his first
year i'm the "big league" And
the coaches seemed to like 1t.
Local fans sometimes have been
astonished at the looseness of Con-
ference officiating in games played
here. 1t was not because the Of
ficials were inefficient in some
cases, but because they were
TullIl2 ILS gains III tiiC hAoAASi az
cepted in the Big Ten.
The older referees played basket
ball when many things were per-
mitted which in present day ideas
Of the game are taboo.
Some of the veterans must
either change their viewpoints to
conform to the new order OF
things or see younger men take
their places. Basketball is large
ly up to the judgment of those
who handle the whistle. They
make or break the game.
The intention of the rules is that
METERS play the BALI and not the
man. The Big Ten, after many
years, seems to be falling into line
slowly, but none the less surely.
That's the way the wind is blow
ng these days, and that's the way
he whistle should blow.
@T will not be surprising if
another ring title goes to
the Pacific Coast which
seems to be specializing in fight
srs these days. But this time the
bout is to be held in New York.
The Californian, Babe Herman,
does battle with Kid Kaplan,
.eatherweight champion, for the
title in the new Madison Square
Garden on Friday night.
The new rules which award a
decision to the boxer who wins the
greater number of rounds would
have given Herman the crown in
the much discussed Waterbury,
Comm bout, which was awarded
to Kaplan by the judges because
of a fast finish by the champ.
Many believed Herman was
robbed" The round" method
of awarding decisions Is likely to
work in the challengers favor oh
Friday.
Another thing that may hurt

difficulty in making the weight
limit. The strength sapping dry
ing out" process to reduce has
ruined many a fighters chances.
We do not know whether such
drastic methods win be necessary,
but it is just another thing to be
considered.
Even if the champ can make the
weight without difficulty we still
prefer the fast, hard-hitting Her
mans chances. Herman usually
steps right out from the first bell
and is likely to pile up a lead in
early rounds that only a knockout
can overcome.
The Pacific Coast may have an
other king of the gloves. Florida
probably is roofing for Kaplan.

 Under the terms of his contract with Widenor, Sande is permitted to ride for other owners in races in which Widoner is not represented. In the event Widener's colt, Hama dan, eligible for the derby, does not start, Shimp indicated it might be worth S5ooo to have Sande, who riloted Zev 10 fame. astride Mark Master. now training at Douglas Park, Louisville.
 Two offers of t4o.ooo for Mark Master. one from an eastern owner and the other from a Cnicagoan, are under consideration.
