WHEN Dan Howley joined the
Indianapolis club as a catcher
in the distant pa't, he was the real
article a a collar ad boy for looks
and was the sheik
of his day. Howl
ine Dan owned
jt a rifle arm when
he first joined
j the Indians and
! W&* ;he management

Uy icr and the cen
-1 " ter fielder would
I Howley get on his bi-
ttleve the : phere our near the flag
pole. But Daniel learned and de
veloped into a fairly good backstop.
As\ a big league pilofc now,
his i current job being with the
Rhinelanders of Cincinnati, the New
England Irishman is a knockout in
the clothes league and still is a
swell looking bozo—when his hat is
on. Dan has passed through the
"going, going, gone" stage and
there’s but in tie cranium adornment
left. His peppery style has moved
Cincy fans to believe their Red-
Jegs will show much improvement I
next season and already the Cincy ]
park is sold out for the opening !
game. Howley is a hustler of the 1
Ownie Bush type and the Cincy
pastimers can look forward to the
grief of morning practice.

PETE MONAHAN, agile first

his exercise this winter has con

The Cincy Reds once pitched their

old Bruno Haas was tagged for shipment
out of the league by St. Taul. but evi

weighs 180 and stands 6 and 2. He
batted for distance in the minors

ty-four assists during the 1929
campaign. His swat mark last sea

BY DICK MILLER
The new Technical high school gymnasium will be the scene of a
state regional high school basketball tournament this year, it became
known today when A. L. Trester, commissioner of Indiana high school
athletics, made public the plans for conducting the 1930 sectional, regional
and state tournament.
Technical gym also will be the scene of the sectional tournament
a week previous to the regional games, the latter being made possible
when Shortridge high school authorities waived their right to conduct
the 1930 tournament as would have been their privilege, by the alternat
ing system used by the local high schools for several years. Tournament
dates are; Sectionals, Feb. 28 and March 1; regionals, March 8; finals,
March 14 and 15, at Butler university fieldhouse.
Anderson, in whose gymnasium
the Indianapolis sectional winners
have played their regional tourna
ment games the past few years, will
be one of the four teams to play
their regional games at the Tech
gym. In addition to the sectional
winners at- Indianapolis and Ander
son the other teams in the local re
gional will be winners at the Tipton
and Danville sectionals.
Nearly 800 Teams
Approximately 796 teams are
members of the Indiana High School
Athletic Association, Commissioner
Trester said today. The bulletin
announcing the tournament plans,
sectional centers, finance plans,
and official entry blanks was mailed
to each high school principal today,
he added.

trol, consisting of Ben Watt, Owens
