Three Cushion Champion in
Important Match.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Otto Reiselt
national champion at three-cushion
billiards, faces Earl Lookabaugh Of
Chicago tonight in match which
will determine whether Reiselt goes
into the lead in the present cham
pionship tournament or drops back
to second place.
BY virtue of his so to 40 victory
over Len Kenney of Chicago Friday
night, Reiselt is now in a triple tie
for first place with AuSie Kieckhe-
fer and Arthur Thurnbiad, both of
Chicago. Each have three victo-
ries and no defeats, and since Reiselt
is the only one of the trio scheduled
to play tonight, the match with
Lookabaugh will have a direct bear
ing on the standings.
Kieckhefer was the sensation of
Friday, defeating Tiff" Denton of
Kansas City, so to 81, in thirty-five
innings, a new tournament record.
In the other matches Friday Thurn-
blad defeated Lookahaugh, so to 80.

Rosenberg, Overweight, For
feitS Crown and Hands
Graham Beating.
By Henry l.. Farrell,
United Press staff Correspondent

OHttCU IItOo ptUii Correspondent
NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Little Char
ley PhiD Rosenberg had the unusual
experience last night of being ruled
out as the bantamweight champion
Of the world, and then handing his
challenger a bad whipping.
Before 1926 spectators Rosenberg
went in four and a half pounds over
weight, and gave Bushy Graham,
Utica, most artistic beating.
Rosenberg won practically every
round, but before the fifteen rounds
were finished, James A. Farley, the
chairman of the boxing commission,
announced at the ringside that
Rosenberg and his manager, Champ
Siegel, had been suspended.
Commissioner Farley explained
that Rosenberg had entered the
ring overweight and had violated all
the rules of the commission.
He then ruled at the ringside, that
inasmuch as Graham had lost the
decision, the bantamweight cham
pionship was open and that the com
mission would have to devise a plan
to find 4 new title. holder.
Farley suggested that Bud Tay-
lor, Tony Canzenerri and Graham
fight it out for the title in an .elimi-
nation tournament. He said, how
ever, that he would not insist on that
plan to the exclusion of other con-
tenders.
William Muldoon. the iron duke of
the commission, presided at the
scales and when Rosenberg weighed
1929 pounds, which were four and
a half pounds over the limit, he said:
Your title is forfeited, young man."
Rosenberg then automatically
turned over $3.50 to the garden
management as n weight forfeit and
$3.50 to Graham, the challenger.

INDIANA FIVE STRIVES TO CREEP UP ON Big TEN LEADERS
Tonight Would Give
Crimson Lone Possession

BIZ Timcs Speciai

BIZ Times Special
CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-Three games
which may change materially the
standings in the Big Ten basketball
race are scheduled tonight. Indiana,
tied for second place with doc"
Meanwells Wisconsin five, meets
the less formidable Maroons in this
city; Ohio State journeys to Iowa
City for a gamee with Sam Barry's
Hawl.eyes, and Minnesota clashes
with Illinois at Ubana.
The Indiana five will be watched
closely by critics to see how the
team will function in real action
without big Jack Winston, star cen
ter-back guard, who graduated last
week. Winston was rated the most
valuable cog in the Hoosier ma
chine.
The Minnesota Illinois battle is
expected to develop into a real bat
tie. The Gophers have lost seven
games in Il row and are "wild' to
break into the victory column. In
the recent contests played by the
Minnesota team, Gopher rooters
have asserted the team has been
robbed" of games by thrilling last
minute rallies on the part of oppos
ing fives.
The Ohio StateIowa game will be
played in the Hawks new field
house.
Should Indiana beat Chicago to-
night, the Hoosiers will take undis-
puted possession Of second place.
Two games are scheduled for Mon
day night, Ohio State moving down
to Urbana to meet the Illini and the
Gophers going to Bloomington to
meet Indiana.

A hole in one is the big thrill in
the life of every golfer.
1t is the no-hit game of baseball,
a run for the length of the field for
u touchdown of football.
True, luck is more or less the de-
Gliding factor. but the drive must be
straight for the pin to turn the trick.
A hole in one does not necessarily
signify class. Many a novice has
performed the feat.
Jock Hutchinson is one of the lead
ing golfers who has qualified for
membership in the hole-in-one club.
He has two to his credit.
He first turned the trick on the
st. Andrews links just outside of
New York, while the other hole in

CLUBS SUFFER

EFT the finish of the entire ar

III linquishing all claims to the
two players without deriving any
profit in money or players. The at
titude taken by both clubs, that it
would be unwise to employ either
of the stars as mere players on a
club which they had managed for
years, is no doubt the correct one.
While such a plan might work
out all right, precedent fails to fore
cast such happening. AS a rule,
such action has upset the morals
Of the club.
When the Detroit and Cleveland
clubs appointed leaders to succeed
Cobb and Speaker, they figured both
men had severed for all time their
connection with the American league.
Now that they are back in good
standing, the two clubs really were
forced to part with Cobb and Speak
err, permitting them to make any
deal they desired for their services.

Battle.

A wonderful driving finish gave
Paul Hinkle's Butler Bulldogs a 30
26 verdict over Franklin College,
Friday night, before 1000 en-

The game was one of the greatest
staged in Indianapolis in recent
years.
The two old time rivals staged a
conflict that had the crowd in an up
roar. Two foul throws and a goal
from the field by Capt. Bob Wake
filed turned the tide in the final
minute and a half of play after the
count had been knotted at II, 10,

was 1910, Butler.

TRAINING MATERIAL

TAD the Cleveland club, prior
r. to the breaking of the scandal
- charges, placed Speaker on
the market he would have been a
most desirable man in a trade.
In all probability, the Cleveland
ball club could have secured players
and money to the amount of per-
haps $4,000 for Speaker. A very
conservative estimate would be $780,
600.
Cobb would have brought some
what similar amount had the De-
tsoit club decided to dispense with
hls services by making a deal with
some other club.
While both players have passed
the peak of their game, Cobb possibly
having refrigerated more than Speak
er, they have a few hundred good
games left in their systems.
