Irish
Contest Ends
in Hot Dispute
Scorers Give Northwestern
20-19 Victory; Scribes
Claim Tie.

Times Special
Z, EVANSTON, H., Jan. THE
NorthwesternS and Notre Danes
met in basketball here last night,
but nobody is sure today just who
won. It seems there are a scorers
version and newspaper mems ver-
sion of the final count.
According to the official book,
Northwestern won by a 20-to-19
score, but the members of the
fourth estate who covered the tilt
were unanimous in their exclama-
ton that the game ended in 20
TOGO tie.
The situation further was COM
plicated by the fact that the Wild
cats-Irish rivalry is one of the keen
est in the sport.
Scorebook Is Official
The point of difference is whether
Raymond Meyer. Notre Dame for
ward, sank one or two free throws.
The score book showed one of his
attempts successful, while the scribes
credited him with two charity shots.
Both teams, accepting the score
book version, had left the floor. The
officials, Lyle Clarno and N. E.
Kearns, refused to make decision,
and said it was up to the scorers.
This probably gave Northwestern
the victory since Sec. IL, rule 6
of the approved code says: THE
scorebook of the home team shall
be official unless the referee rules
otherwise" The statistics were kept
by Bill Gillespie of Notre Dame,
and John Glenn of Northwestern.
George Koegan, Notre Dame
coach, did rot lodge an immediate
protest.
The game itself was a thriller.
After getting off to a fast start the
South Bend team led, IL to 6, at
intermission. When the foes came
back on the court, the Wildcats
revived and dropped in sudden
shower of baskets. Capt. Duke Vance
was the spearhead in this drive,
which cut Notre Danes lead one
point, IA TO 13.
Irish Gain Edge
1t was midway in the second
period that Meyers free throw, or
free throws, popped up. John Moir
connected from the field and Mey-
er, fouled by Tug Blume, dropped
in a free throw to give the Irish
a 17-to-13 edge.
Then the newspapermen claimed
Meyer sank another charity shot
which would have given the irish
an 18-to-13 lead.
Baskets by Jean Smith and Hi
Bender, and free throw by Mar
cellus McMichaels gave Northwest
ern five points, and either a tie or
one-point lead. Fred Trenkle
hooked in another one for the Wild
cats, and John Ford scored for the
Irish as the joust ended.
Here is how the official scorers
said the game came cut:

Wanted: One big seven-foot cen-

Mr.. Gee is repeatedly the tallest

Hinkle of the Butler Bulldogs as he
goes about preparing the local Gag

1t appears, however, that no such
center will be found, and Scotty
Armstrong, who stands a mere 6-3,
will have to Go the best he can
against the invading Skyscraper.
Armstrong Taking 1t Easy
Armstrong has cold and was
forced to rest at home during
the Bulldogs workout yesterday. He
is expected to be ready for action
tomorrow. Coach Hinkle spent the
entire afternoon brushing up the
varsity on offensive maneuverS.
To add to Coach Hinkle's worries,
a way must be found to stop the
Townsend brothers, John and Earl,
former Tech stars. if the Bulldogs
are to hope for victory. The Town

Fawcett, Merrill Tested
With several reserves showing up
well against Cincinnati last week,
and working out this week in var
Sity positions, Coach Hinkle's START
ing lineup is matter of speculation.
Willard F'awcett, sophomore from
LoganSport, and big Bill Merrill,
local boy, have been playing at for
ward and center, respectively, in
scrimmages. This set-up would move
Scotty Armstrong back to his old
forward position.

WHILE you are compiling your

only one-fourth of the starting field

Smoother Performer
Boss Trayaor doesn't expect
Pep Young and Arky Vaughan to

that with Young starting from

be a smoother infield performer
than in previous years with the
club.
Young did not break in as q
regular last season until the race
was one month old. The tow.
haired infielder is q bali hawk Of
the first water, sure of his post
provided he is able to hit as con-
sistently as he did in his maiden
effort in the big show. Pepper,
although missing the first months,
batted in about 80 runs.
In any event, Traynor, starting

victory over the Pirates.
Young Henshaw cracked down
on the Pirates seven times last
season, and almost landed an
eighth triumph. This total was
larger than his aggregate tri.
umphs over the other six clubs.
Where the Pirates could measure
gents like Dizzy Dean for smarting
defeats they were pushovers for a
lot Of Southpaws who couldn't t
seem to beat anybody else.
The remedy, Traynor feels, is
found in q flock Of herculean
right.hand swingerS named Fred
Schultz, Al Todd, Bud Hafey, Ber-
ME Cob5 and Bill Brubaker.
RightHand Swingers
Schultz came from the Wash
ington Senators. In the workouts
here he gives the indication Of a
