The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-03-11

Most of the interest centers on
the Mnncie, Frankfort, Sullivan and
Indianapolis centers, where several
strong contenders will be eliminated
from the race.
Following last weeks sectional
play in which many upsets were
recorded many predict even more
surprises in the regional action.
Alex Battles Tech
Alexandria and Tech top the local
field, but Danville'S husky warriors,
favored by break in the draw, are
conceded more than an outside
chance of surviving. Alexandria,
conqueror of the highly-touted
Casemen of Anderson in sectional
play, will battle Tim Campbell's
rangy Tech warriors in the opening
game of the local card Both are
ranked as state title contenders and
bitter battle is expected
Alexandria, boasting both power
and speed, won eighteen games and
lost two during the season. Mum
cie'S title defending Bearcats and
Lapel we're the only conquerors of
the Tigers who bowed to the Bear
cats by a one-point margin at Mum
Gle.
Tech in Best Form
During the season, Alexandria
averaged 1872 points per game, and
held opponents to an 1874 average.
The Tigers connected on 140 free
throw attempts out of 239 chances.
Several strong teams, including JEFF
fersonville, Shortridge and Wash
ington's Hatchets, we're Alexandria
victims.
While the Tech record is not as
impressive in the win and loss
column, Campbell's cagers captured
the North Central conference title
and defeated some of the states
strongest quintetS.. With revised
lineup, the Techs appear in their
best form of the season now and are
slight favoriteS. Danville will face
WeStland in the second afternoon
fray and is the choice to advance to
the final play to meet the Alex-Tech
survivor.
Muncie Is FavOrite
AT Muncie, two teams generally
conceded to be among the states
big FIVE" will battle in an after
noon fray. NewcaStle's mighty
Trojans take on Muncie, hoping to
break a long jinx and make their
first trip to the finals in MANY
years, but the Bearcats remain
slight favorites.
At Frankfort, the Hot Dogs are
IN for real battle, playing the
hlgh-Scoring Lebanon quintet in the
afternoon and Jefferson of Lafav-
cite, another strong contender, at
night.
Vincennes' elongated Alices are
favored to trip Washington at Sui
IVAN in the opening tilt and adj
vance to the state finals at the ex-
pense of Digger.
