RIPPLE,S BEST BET

We believe that Raymond Hitch
cock, Broad Ripple forward, de-
serves a lot OF credit for the success
Of his team. 1t would be putting it
rather strong TO say that he is the
backbone Of the Ripple quintet, but
he surely is the best bet Coach
tDederich has. When Hitchcock
first started to play high school
basketball, the coaches had a lot of
shooter. He is dangerous any time
he Is within the center OF the floor
for his basket eye seems to be I'M
canny But, he was a hot-headed
player-the kind that f1yies off the
handle and starts to fight every time
he is roughed up a trifle.
Coach Ed Deiderich has been
working hard with the boy and ap-
parently Hitchcock has been taking
notice, for this year Raymond
blossomed out as q real basketball
player. He uses his head now and
it appears to US there is a lot of
gray matter up there in addition to
skull. If he gets his chance he'll
shoot If he is covered he uses his
bean. lie outw1tted three Danville

so we have it, but kept feeding the

BRING IT HOME

We are absolutely, positively and
certainly in favor of having the In
diana State High School champion
compete in the National tourney at
Chicago late In March. 1t is with
out doubt the opinion of the majority
of Indiana coaches. critics and fol-
lowers that an Indiana team, like
Marion's outfit of last year. or Cliff
ford Wells present quintet could
take the National championship with
more ease than playing some of the
games on the regular schedule. In
diana is the kingdom of basketball
Correct. Then bring the National
high school championship to Hoosier-
land.

HARRY HOUDINI|
PASSES AWAY
SUNDAY NIGHT
Man Hailed as Worlds Great.
est Magician Dies Without
Revealing Secrets

Detroit, Nov. 1-IP)-Harry Hou-
dini's mysterious feats Of escape,
which trilled spectators throughout
the world in his life, today were
locked in the mystery of death.
The magician, hailed by his fellow
workers as the grcatst Of them all,
died here last night, taking with him
the secrets Of how he escaped from
manacles, chains, coffins, straight
jackets and other cOntrivanccs which
no other man ever had duplicated un-
der his challenge.
Although Houdini wrote copiously
on magic, the fruit Of his quarter Of a
century experience as Il conjurOr, his
managers announced that his own
methods never were revealed.
Although Houdini performed the
usual run Of magical tricks, and
gained considerable notice for his un-
tiring attacks on spirit mediums, the
public probably was most attracted to
his adcptncss in releasing himself
from almost any kind of confinement
that could be devised.
In one Of his favOrite tricks he per-
mitted himself to be bound hand and
foot in a box wrapped with ropes and
chains and placed under water. He
escaped from thousands Of straight
jackets, picked innumerable locks and
freed himself while hanging from a
derrick in manacles and straight
jacket.
Pcritonitis which followed an opcr-
alton for appendicitis last Monday
caused his death.
