Lafayette :-kated circles around Fort Wayne to-night, winning by a s"ore of 12 to 3, before the largest crowd the Colls-um has yet held. By long odds it was the fastest game the Sycamores have put up. and the enthusiasm of the 2.500 spectators was of the strongest kind. Jason's absence somewhat crippled the Railroaders, and Iafayette was in prime condition. The tam work of the locals was phenomenal. Ciavltt's sensational drives brought down the house. The lanky rush made eight of the twlvc goals. Tibhits was a stone wall at the cage, and stopped many vicious drives. McGrath played a star game for the visitors.

Mn In th Above Squad Represented the Red WESTERN WILL FIGHT EVEN IFJHOES BROKE Sexton Says that This Policy Has Been Decided Upon by Magnates. TO RETAIN KANSAS CITY LINCOLN, Neb.. Jan. 8. The fact has become quite evident that the Western Baseball League will adhere to its policy of "no surrender' in Its flfiht wdth the American Association for the Kansas City territory. Pr-sident Sextou. of the Western, is outSpoken in declaring that the organization of which he Is the head will retain the Missouri city. To Ltncolu parties who have taken an active part In an endeavor to secure a franchise for this city in the Western Mr. Sexton recently expressed his views in the following: "In view of the developments of the meeting of the National Association at St. Its I its, and the very evident Intention of the consolidation of certain cities in the Am rican Association and the Kastern League, and inasmuch as the American Association at its recent meting failed to appoint a representative to act on the arbitration committee in adjusting differences at Milwaukee and Kansas City, It appears to me imperative that we Continue our club in Kansas City, as in the two seasons Just passed. "telle" lug that the agreement entered into at St. Lculs would be carried out, I have spent considerable time in making arrangements to substitute new cities for Milwaukee and Peoria, and still hope to see Sioux City and Lincoln admitted to the circuit. Milwaukee, under the most favorable conditions, is not good baseball territory, while Peoria, although a good city, is situated too far east for a berth in the Western league. In my opinion a circuit composed of Ienver, Colorado Springs, Kansas City. St. Joseph. Lincoln, Omaha. Sioux City and Des Moines would be ideal. Such a circuit would pair the teams nicely and could be divided so as to make a splendid and economical schedule. Recent experimental tiguriug on such a schedul discloses the fact thai w- can effect a saving of nmre than 20.of0 miles in transpotration expenses over lns.t season, and with reasonable salary reductions and economy in ither expenses there can be no question about the financial success of such a circuit." LITTLE SCOUT FIRST J Was a Strong Favorite in the Betting and Won Without Difficulty. NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 8. Little Scout and Lurallghter, both of whom outclassed the fields opposed to them, were the only winning favorites t-day. The f-ature of the card was the Jackson handicap, at a mile and a half. anl worth $1.100 to the winner. Little Scout was a strong favorite in the betting and won without difficulty.

DATE FOR BIG FIGHT SET FOR 27 Tommy Ryan and Jack O'Rrien Will Meet in Six-Round Bout in Philadelphia. FORFEIT MONEY POSTED Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CHICAGO, Jan. 8. Announcement was made to-day by Sylvie Ferndti, manager for Tommy Ryan that the tlKht with Jack O'Brien would take place Jan. 27, both parties having ajrreed on this date. He has wired to the club officials In Philadelphia to this effect. "The forfeit money of $500 which was to have been posted by Ryan has been sent on to Philadelphia," said Ferretti. "O'Brien is making his objections too soon. When he wns here I promised to send the money last Monday, but I did not get It away because Ryan wns not about on Monday. The certified check was forwarded to Philad lphia on Tuesday, however." Tommy Ryan. world's middleweight champion, has announced that ho will defend his title for the last time when he meets Philadelphia Jack O'Brien before the International Club of Philadelphia. "No matter how the tight ends it will be the last in which I will ever appear. I realize that my lighting days are numbered, and it Is not my desire to hang on and on after I have outlived my days of usefulness. "I think, though, that there is one good hard Hght left in me, anl that I will give O'Hrlen the hardest battle he has ever been in. As there are no decisions rendered in Philadelphia, it will be necessary for Jack to knock me out to win the championship. That I ..Ti positive he cannot do. On the other hand, I feel confident that no matter how cleverly he may guard himself I will be able to get to him with a sleepproducer before the end of six rounds. "If I succeed in beating O'Brien I shall give my title to some gool young fellow, probably Hugo Kelly, the Chicago boy, who fought a draw with O'Brien last week, and at that got the worst of the decision."

TWO PURDUE ATHLETES HONORED BY STUDENTS
Leslie Appointed Baseball Manager and Knapp as Basket ball Manager. TAKE OFFICE AT ONCE Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE. Ind.. Jan. 8. At a meeting of the board of directors of the Purdue Athle'ic Association, two veteran Old Gold and Black athletes, both badly injured in the Big Four disaster on Oct. 31. were honored by being appointed to responsible positions. Harry Q, Leslie, whose return to Purdue from the Indianapolis hospital yesterday was the signal for a student demonstration, was elected student manager Of baseball for 1904. Leslie has been captain Ot both baseball and football teams at Purdue, and a more popular athlete never stepped foot on Stuart Flfld. His new position wdll be that of assistant to Athletic Manager Cutts, who has general charge of athletics at the university. Italic will work on the schedule and have charge of the gate receipts and baseball expenses. Joseph G. Knapp, a football and basketball player of great ability, and perhaps second only to Leslie in popularity at Purdue, was chosen student manager of the basketball team, which is also a position as assistant to Mr. Cutts. Knapp returned to Purdue a few days ago for the first time since the wreck. He still walks with a crutch and may always be lame. The selection of the two new managers Is done in order to relieve Coach Cutts of a portion of the great task now falling on his shoulders. Leslie and Knapp are familiar with every detail of the work in the athletic department, and especially those departments which they wdll have charge of. They take office at once. Fifteen-Round Draw at Ilaltlmnre. BALTIMORE. Jan. 8. Joe Rlackburn, of Philadelphia, and Sammy Bolen, of New York, colored lightweight pugilists, sparred fifteen rounds to a draw to-night before the Eur ka Athletic and Social Club. Bolen was apparently the stronger at the finish, although a right to the jaw had sent him to the floor In the second round.

Pet. 3 3 0 1000 3 2 1 3 1 2 .333 3 0 3 .000 Combating desperately, as If their lives depended upon the issue of the game. tn young athletes, five clad in the bright red and white of the Manual Training High School and five wearing the somber blue of the Shortridge High School, measured endurance, quickness and skill for basketball honors last night at the Auditorium, on Virginia avenue. Not until the whistle blew that ended the game did the one thousand cheering spectators know that the Manual Training School five had won the game by the close score of 24 to 21. It was a hard dfeat for Shortridge. but there was no dishonor In It. The rlrst half closed with the score tied and the last half begnn with nothing but victory in sight for the rive hundred wearers of the blue and white. Put. as is so often the case In basket ball, their hopes were dashed to the depths of bitter defeat in the lat few moments of play. The curtain raiser of the evening was the contest between Butler and the Y. M. C. A., in which the latter won with little trouble by an uninteresting score of 43 to 23. In the history of basketball In Indianapolis no prettier contest has even been seen than that between the two high schools. While the players were on the floor the enthus!asm of the crowds rang out like the battle cries of war. As one team forged ahead by landing the ball in the basket or even striking dangerously close, the long shrill shrieks of the girls sounded strangely above the din of the masculine voices. Not a follower of the two schools could keep quiet under the nervous strain of the exciting struggle. On the toss-up Manual Training School chose the north basket. After the first few minutes of play it was apparent that the game would be close, and fought with every pound of strength in the well-trained bodies of the players. Shortridge scored llrst on a foul by Manual Training School. A minute later Spohr placed the Training School one point ahead by Unding the basket from the field. In a furious struggle immediately under his goal, Bohnstadt secured the ball and placed it neatly In the basket, starting the game with a slight lead for the red and white. It was not maintained for any length of time, however. McKinney was passed the ball, and, standing near the center of the fleht. thr a It cleanly in the basket. The score was tied In the next minute by Riddle converting a foul made by Training School Into a goal. On a foul by Shortridge, Bohnstadt placed his team one point in the lead on the tree throw. McKinney, however, secured the ball under his own goal and sent it safely into the net. one of the prettiest plays of the game was made immediately following. McKinney, who was in the Käme at every period, snatched the ball from a mix-up under Training School's goal and sent It straight as an arrow the length of the floor Into the hands of Riddle, who dropped it neatly into the basket. Shortridge was several points in the lead and playing a stronger game than at the outset Diddle cut down Shortrldge's lead by securing a goal from the Held. Diddle converted a foul into a point, and followed it with a goal from the field. In a mlx-up at one side of the floor, Bohnstadt tossed the ball into the basket and Spohr to leered it with a second true throw from the Held. The half ended with the score 13 to IL THE SECOND HALF. At the beginning of the secoud half, the Shortridge five displayd a wonderful streak of team work and pulled away frm the sturdier Plnynri in the red and white. To the spectators, it seemed almost certain that the victory would go to the north side boys. The scoring was started on a double fould, bdh in Bönstadt and Riddle accepting a second chances at the basket from the foul line. However, Rohnstadt tied the score later by converting a Shortridge foul into goal. On a pick-up throw from the floor. Riddle sent the hall straight into the basket and in a few minutes that followed placed his team four points in the lead by accepting two throws from foul. By this stage of the game the excit ment was so intense that every spectator was on his feet and shouting and cheering unvoluntarlly. Here the tide began to turn. Siohr secured a goal from the Held and Bohnstadt followed with mother, trying the score. After that he Shortbridge lads had the worst end of the figures. Spohr pent his team two points ah'ad by landing the ball safely in the basket on a diffcult pickup throw from the floor. A minute later the ball was sent through the air from the middle of the field and mlraceously hounded in the Training Schools' basket. The lead obtained by the red and white could not be overcome, try as hard as the Shrt ridge men did. When the whistle blew the score was twenty-four to twenty-one and thplayers of both teams, besmired with dust and Perspiration, sank helplssly to the floor. To sa'y which team outclass-d in the points of the game would be a technical problem. The Training School played the steadier, stronger game, while the Shortridge players outclassed them in team work. In passing and handling the ball the North Side boys were the superiors. Ah to individual work, every player on each team played his part of the game. For Manual Training Schol. Bohnstadt and Spohr were the mainstays, and practically won the game, while McKinney and Riddle were the stars of Shortridge. The play was rough and fast, as the calling of fouls was n..t observed as strictly as usual. The game between Butler and the Y. M. C A. lacked interest and life. The college boys showed signs o? short wind, and did not stay wdth their opponents closely enough. Their playing was spasmodic, and at tim s they showed a streak of team work that almost carried the Y. M. C. A. players of their fet. The work of the latter, however, told, and won the game in the first half. They should have won by an even larger score, as they had chance aftr chance at placing the ball in the basket, but their aim was not true. Butler was given a handicap of ten points, but was unable t make use of it. The line-up of the teams and the summary of the games follow: Y. M. C. A. Position. Butler.

After a two weeks' vacation, the members of the Indianapolis Bowling League again got busy last night, but the ecorea were not up to the usual standard, owing to the fact that the players have been without practice. Two teams succeeded in taking straights. The Ko-We-Bas took six from the North Sides and the Columbias won the same number from the well-nan.' 1 All-Stars. The surprise of the evening was sprung when the Turners won five games from the ieedy Marlon bunch. An even bicak was looked for by members of both teams. The Washingtons won four out of six from the Imperials and the National and Crescent teams divided honors. There were twenty-nine 300 or bettT scores rolled. Churchman, of the Marion team, was high with 239, Levey, of the Marions, and Bieler, of the Columbias, were tied for second honors, with scores of 22 and Mueller, of the Imperials, was third, with 223.
