Central and Eastern
Also in for Tough
Series Struggle
By GEORGE HUBER.

The first real test that will show
whether Tech High has the basket
ball team to repeat its 1945 title
drive will come tonight when the
Maroons meet a good Roosevelt
quint In the feature of the school
boy series double-header at Tech
gym.
Central and Eastern, losers in last
weeks opening games but far from
being counted out, tangle in the
7:30 opener, making for a night of
excellent basket ball..
The Maroons have won five
straight this year, but they haven't
had the kind of opposition that
would extend them enough to show
whether they have the stuff to re-
peat as champions. Or maybe Tech
is so good that these games just
looked easy.
Roosevelt Is Tough Foe.
Roosevelt will floor a fast, we'll
conditioned team that figures to
make it plenty tough for Tech. The
Rough Riders are in shape to romp
at top speed all night and plan to
do so, and as there's a suspicion that
Tech might not yet be in top physi-
cal trim, there are the makings of
something interesting to watch to-
night.
Helping Techs prospects is the
fact that scoring ability and eXper-
fence are well-distributed through
out the lineup. The entire starting
five of Buddy Timmons, Jack
George, Walt Olson, Charlie Brot-
man and Andy Davis are good
marksmen from all angles, and need
only to tighten their defensive set
up to come out on top again.
KeppeI Developing Talent.
Roosevelt until recently was bank
ing mostly on the hoop ability of
Bernie Wolf, but Jim Huston's "a
points against Eastern last week
showed that Coach Dave Keppel is
developing new players to help
things along.
Central is in position to make its
first serious bid for the crown since
1912, when it was runnerup to Will
son. The Vikings lost by hair to
Wilson last week, but still have lot
of hackers.
Eastern, last week a victim of the
fast Roosevelt shooters, also figures
to win many games before the year
is out and is likely to worry the
Vikings tonight, with lack of height
its chief handicap.

Grid Lions Plan Court Contest
AS Sinkwich Jumps to Yunks
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Jan. ia court
fight loomed today over whether
All-America Halfback Frankie Sink
wich of Georgia would play pro-
fessional football this fall with the
Detroit Lions of the National
League or the New York Yankees
of the newly organized All-America
Conference.
Sinkwich, voted the NILS most
valuable player in 1914, bolted the
Lions yesterday by signing three
year contract for Dan Topping's
Yankees at a salary reported to be
$12, 600 annually.
The move brought prompt re-
action from Detroit officials, who
declared they were prepared to go
to court" to enforce two-year con-
tract with Sinkwich which they
contend has one year to run be-
cause he did not play in 1945 when
he was in the Army.
Even If that isn't so Chat the
Detroit contract has one more year
to rum we have an option on Sink
wich's services until August l." as
serted Fred Mandel, owner of the
Detroit club.
In Buffalo, at the time, 1t was an
nounced another former Detroit
player, William Kennedy, 215-
pound lineman, had signed with the
Buffalo all-America team.
