In his column IF they are going

much would be lost II they didn't

that the Texans did not play like

BASKETBALL Is taking a strong
hold in Mexico. Fast teams are
springing up in all parts Of the
country. The Fal quint made an ex-
tended tour of the United States
and played q good brand OF ball.
The Falls defeated the Southeastern
Teachers college OF Durant, Okla,
and held the strong University Of
Kansas team to a 5000 score. They
also gave Notre Dame a 1929 scare.
IN the opinion Of Coach Leoncio
Ochoa, the lest brand Of basket
ball In the part OF the U. s. visited
by the Mexicans is played in Kan
sas. He was high in his praise OF
the hoopsters In the corn belt. The
new basketball rules abolishing the
tip-off was tried for the first time
in the KanSas-Mexico game. This
style OF play appealed TO Coach
Ochoa. In his opinion. the size OF
a teams center should not be the
handicap that 1t Is under regular
rules.
MONTERREY and Merida :
engaged IN a spirited battle over
which shall obtain the Mexico-C Cuba
Davis cup matches If they are to
be played in Mexico this year. Both
cities are opening new country
clubs this spring. Monterrey's chief
argument Is that she is on a good
highway from the u. 8. which should
draw American fans TO the games.
The leading net talent in Mexico
Is composed OF Manuel Llaro, RI
cardo Tapia, Mariana Lozano, Al
fonso linda, Federico Sendel, Ig-
nacio de Ia Borbolla and Robert
Kinsey. IL Is likely the Mexico-C Cuba
matches will be played April IT,
IS and 10.
II Mexico were to down Cuba and
the United States defeat Canada
in the first round. Mexico plans
to invite the u. 8. players to Mex
leo for the second round. Either
Monterrey or Merida. depending on
which Of the cities gets the Mexico

The Cleveland Indians are or the
warpath. and their whoops should
be heard up around the top OF the
Hill when the 1880 season closes.
Chief Roger Peckinpaugh Is
whipping a powerful squad into
shape at Heinemann park. while
they may not have enough power
to fend off the Athletics and
Yankees they should be giving
somebody a tussle for the flying
banner when the season closes. \
The Indians are fortunate In
mace up OF men old in baseball. but
young in years. In addition they
have a promising bunch Of huskies
itching TO step into the shoes of
the regulars. Out Of the squad OF
40 big men, IS may be considered
we'll beyond the raw stage.
Last year the Indians finished
in third place and were playing ball
like demons when the season end
ed. If 1t were possible for the In
dams at the start Of this season to
hit their stride OF the last month
Of the 1929 season. they probably
would 20 rough shod over anything
in sight.
There will not be any drastic
changes in this seasons lineup over
last. Charlie Jameson may be fore
ed to function as utility outfielder
as his 81 years have placed him in
the twilight of baseball. It will be
hard for him 10 hold his regular
post against such men as Bib Falk,
Earl Averiil and Dick Porter.
The Indians had the fright OF
their lives when IL looked as II
scarlet fever would keep Lewis Fon-
SEGA off first base. but all Is
hunkidore now, for word has come
from California that Fonseca Is up
and about, Is even taking light
training on the coast and will be

The Indians would have been IN
q sad plight II they had lost this
man, who led the American League
in batting hcnors last season and
snapped into 1t on first base as
naturally as a duck taking TO water.
They were drilling Henry Bonura
and Alex Hooks for the job, but
they showed nothing to make mer-
~ over in comparison with Fonseca.
The shortstop battle Is creating
lots OF excitement with three lads.
Carl Lind, Ray Gardner and John
Goldman competing for 1t. Lind Is
making a drive TO get back with
the regulars after being routed off
of second base by Urban Hodapp.
Hodapp has second clinched about
as Joe Sewell has third. Luke Sew

carry the hod behind the bat.

Hudlin, Miller. Holloway and

more than passing ability are
Clinton Brown. Milbern Shoffner,
Mel Harder. and Peter J~ablonowski.
The main weapon possessed by
the Indians Is their hitting power.
