KANSAS CITY, March 1.-THE
little man who wasn't there, isn't
here either for the 4th annual ma
tional intercollegiate basket ball
tournament.
West Texas State glories in the
title of the worlds tallest basket
ball team and the average height OF
its starting lineup the past five
years has been 6 feet 4 inches. This
season 1t has climbed an inch
primarily because of Center Charles
Ealbert, 6 feet 10 inches of muscle.
A Burden to Travel.
Halbert is identified as the "tallest
regular" in the Nation. But Halbert
won't be too conspicuous here.
Maryville, Mo-, Teachers, un-
defeated in 20 straight games,
brought Ike Howell, reserve center,
who also is 6 feet 10 inches. Tourna-
ments are the bane of Howell's
athletic career primarily because OF
the long stay away from home.
In hotels he can't dream of drop
ping in two pointers until after
pulling the mattress of the bed
and placing 1t on the floor. 4
Halbert has pitched in 425 points
this season as his club won IS OF Is
contests by piling up 1914 points to
1862 for the opposition.
His coach, AL Baggett, is q mere

Other giants" to compete in the
week-long ordeal:
Bob Hunt, a 6-foot-8-inch pivot
for Kansas Wesleyan. He recently
poured in 20 points in one game
at the Ell Paso, Tex, tournament.
Jack Briley of Louisiana Normal
beats him by an inch and by
three points in scoring. Against the
Georgetown, KY, Teachers, the
Natchitoches athlete, also a CEN
ter, split the netting for 80 points.
Hunts size is equaled by Bill Cas-
tleberry of East Central (Okla.)
State.
A Midget of 6-feet-4.
Andy Eckles of San Diego (Calf)
State is midget of feet 4 inches,
but he will have a tremendous fol-
lowing primarily because of the
splendid showing his team made a
year ago when it lost the final, 80
to 81, to Southwestern College Of
Winfield, Kans.
Only two of the seven regulars"
on the West Texas team are less
than 6 feet inches. One is Ernest
Schur, feet II. His mates have
taken compassion on him and elect
ed him captain.

Chicago Custer
From Big Ten
Threatened
No Dates Are Granted
Maroon, Requested to
Clear Sports Stand
BY TOM SILER,

ASSoclateu freSS 6porLS writer.
CHICAGO, March ia threat
of ostracism from all Big Ten
varsity sports. activities hung today
over the University of Chicago.
The cleavage between Chicago and
the other conference schools came
into the open Saturday night when
athletic directors declined to give
the Maroons basket ball games on
their schedules until some ques-
tions are answered"
The conference has bene Waiting
for those answers ever since Chicago
abandoned intercollegiate football
last December 81. Shortly after the
school took this action an unknown
spokesman" for the institution said,
'You can't play Big Ten football
without being crooked as far as the
league rules are concerned"
Statements Declared False.
Three weeks later President Rob-
ert M. Hutchins said in a speech to
the students that there is no such
thing as Legitimate subsidization"
under conference rules. He added
he didn't believe enough competent
players could be legally assisted"
under conference rules ito affect
materially the record of our football
teams" The Maroons have not been
title contender in several years,
usually winding up in the bottom
spot.
In a statement issued through
Commissioner John L. Griffith, the
athletic directors said they took mo
exception" to Chicago's decision to
give up football, but added:
However, statement of an un-
known spokesman for the trustees
and the issuance of pamphlet con-
tanning false statements derogatory
to the conference by the alumni
council, seems to the directors to be
contrary to conference procedure"
Chicago Asked for Proof.
The directors asked Chicago, in
effect, to hand over to Maj. Griffith
for investigation any charges of
rules violations by other schools, or
to retreat from its contention that
there is cheating. They said they
would delay completing the basket
ball states until Chicago had had q
chance to make clear its position.
So now it is Chicago's move.
Hutchins and Athletic Director Mel
son Metcalf have declined to make
any statements on the athletic d.
rectors' action. The athletic direc-
tors have the power to ban all Chi
cago teams from competing with
other conference outfits, but the
school can remain member of the
conference without meeting any of
the other members in athletics.
The Faculty Committee alone has
the power to oust any school from
the organization. The athletic di-
rectors meet again in May. when
they are expected to take definite
action on the matter.
Pitt Ready to Step In.
Reports that Chicago's days as
conference member were numbered
have been circulated widely and
frequently ever since the Maroons
abandoned football and even before
that time.
Pittsburgh, which operates under
Big Ten rules and under the super
vision of Maj. Griffith, is considered
the most likely successor to Chicago
should the Midway school drop out.

Beot Clippers, 1892

Thanks to an ex-George WASH

Brewers were In possession of their
first victory In the American Basket
Ball Leagues playon series today
and another chance to win one of
the loops two 1910 titles after
mufnng their first opportunity Sat-
urday night.
The only one of the local pro
cagers to score consistently on their
home floor yesterday, Ben Goldfad-
den personally led the Brewers to a
1892 victory over the Baltimore
Clippers, even though the visitors
threatened to reverse the early
trend Of the game in the late going.
It was the Brewers first win in two
playof games and the Clippers first
loss.
Although he scored most of his IA
points in the opening periods, it was
Goldfadden who recaptured the lead
for his team at 1922 after the
Clippers had climaxed long unhill
fight to take the lead at 1921. They
had trailed, 1874, at the end of the
first third and 20-14 at the end Of
the second.
From then on, action was fast and
close, with long shots by Phil Rabin
and Mike Bloom tying the score for
the Brewers after the Clippers had
gone ahead at T-23. Even after
seeing their hosts up their advantage
to 1927, the Baltimoreans were not
through, for Bender, Conaty and
Esposito came within one of tying
the score in the waning seconds.

takes races rather than buildups to
produce records.
That argument was proved to the
most doubling Thomases at the
Garden Saturday night, when two
brilliant competitions produced
world records for 600 yards and 2
miles, while Chuck Fenske won an
over-ballyhooed mile in his slowest
Garden time Of the year.
Jim Herbert cut three -tenths of a
second OF his own indoor 600 mark.
In winning in 1:10.8, he had to come
from third place in the last lap,
and National Champion Charley
Belcher and Manhattan Colleges
John Quigley also must have beaten
Herbert's old I'LL. Quigley was no
more than four feet back in third
place.
Greg Rice, the toy bulldog from
South Bend, Ind, had to come from
second place in the last 80 yards to
take the 2-mile in new record time
Of 1862. In beating Wisconsin
Walter Mehl and Indiana Tommy
Deckard by 10 and II yards, he
hauled them both through the fast
est two miles they'd ever run-8:582
and 1888, first time either had
broken nine minutes.
Herbert and Rice, together with
Fenske, AL (Thar She) Blozis of
Georgetown and Allan Tolmich of
Detroit, today stand out as the
leading performers of the season.
Herbert, in addition to his record,
won out of 10 races and brought
N. Y. U. home the winner in every
mile relay which he anchored. Rice
now holds the board track records
for two and three miles, and is q
natural to meet Taisto Maxi, out
