Logansport, 4; Fort Wayne, 2. ' Indianapolis won from Muncie last night by a score of 10 to 5. The contest was romewhat slow in the last two pe riods, and Captain Farrell. of Muncie. upheld his reputation of being a quitter by standing still and refusing to take part in the game. The home players put up another stellar exhibition, and that their hard up-hill fight Is being appreciated by the fans is shown by the fact that 'the largest crowd of the season was In attendance. Standing room was almost at a premium, and during the first period, which was one of the best and hardest-fought battles of the year, the crowd waa the greater part of the time standing on Its feet. Notwithstanding the fact that the Indians led Muncie by. a good margin t the close of the first Inning, this part of the game was Interesting. The magnificent floor work of Dickey Pierce and the great game played by Captain McGllvray at cover point will be food for discussion for the fans for many days. Allie Coggshall. at center, played a'wcnderful game and scored his usual tally for McCllvray's men. O'Hara and Bannon played a strong defensive game, and the victory can. In a measure, be attributed to the stone-wall game, of the two ßtar defense men. The Muncie quintet did not put up the game that it has on former occasions In this city. Remarks made by the fans after the contest tend to. show that Farrell's men have fallen into dislike In this city, where before they were admired. . ' Bobby IIart,v one of the greatest goalgetters, in the West, played a good game, but waa blocked to cleverly by O'Hara to be 'effective. Hlgg.ns was taken care, of by Coggshall In an admirable manner and only one of Farrell's wild swings found a resting place behind Bannon. Holderness played a good game at half and Cuslck played a good game, at goal in face of the fact that ten drives from Indian cluba got past- him. Farrell "called" Cuslck when the latter was playing better polo than was his 'captain. Hart scored the first goal for Muncie, taking a pass from Farrell and scoring on a swifc back-hand drive. The Indians then scored four-tallies in süghtly over five min- . utes of play. Pierce hung the first marker for Indlanepolis after carrying the ball through the Muncie -defense on the point of his club and scoring on a short slap. McGllvray followed in eight seconds during a. scrimmage, and Half Back O'Hara then came in for his share of the honors, hanging a marker on a Iqng drive the entire length of the rink in forty seconds. Pierce then had an in-and-out goal and to make up' for it scored in 4:09 on an angle drive. Farrell hung his only tally on.afluke goal, the ball glancing from Bannon"! protector Into the netting. Pierce then took a flying pass from McGllvray and scored on a short drive in 2:57. This was the last tally In the first period, which closed with Indianapolis three points to the good. Muncie scored an accidental tally for the first marker In the second period. Pierce drew Cusick away from the cage for the " next marker and scored in 9:20. He repeated this performance in 2:04. scoring again on a short scoop after catching a rebound drive from McGilvray's club. Cogsshall scored the first goal in the final inning, the Indian center taking a rebound drive and scoring in 8:17 from a difficult angle. McGllvray then scooped one for Muncie in 3:21. The little Muucie rusher then had an in-and-out goäl, which - was followed by another score for Indianapolis. Higgins scored the final goal in eighteen seconds on a short drive with but a few pfccoads to play. Muncie drew two fouls, one for holding and one for tripping. O'Hara. of the local team, was penalized for holding Hart. Line-up and summary: Indianapolis. Position. Muncie. McGllvray.. First rush.

SLUMP OF SYCAMORES

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE, Ind.. March 13. With first place honors so far out of sißht as to le unobtainable the Lafayette polo team r.vs suddenly come to realize the fact that a stiff fight Is necessary to remain In second position in the Central League percentage table, and from now 'on there will be a pretty -trine-cornered struggle between Lafayette. Kokomo and Danville, the Sucker team having boosted their percentage to such. a figure as to menace both the Sycamores and Kokomo. Captain Wiley's team has not been playing its usual brand of pole- for the past two weeks. The team has taken a slump and it cannot entirely be accounted for. The absence of Tibbitts for a week, in a measure, weakened the team, but . Berry played an excellent game at goal and in the short time he was here became nearly as popular as Tibbitts. Lafayette thin week has lost to Terre Haute and Logansport, acknowledged to be the two weakest teams, in the league. Captain Wiley has been slow and listless and the whole team hat; lacked snap. Devlin and Gavitt have shewn up nearly as well as before, but Dawson has been playing like a man working for -his release. The wonderful strides of Danville toward third place has awakened much comment. Daly and Campbell are two of the best rushes in the league and "Gloomy Cu" in particular has been fairly outdoing himselt. The loss of Whiting through illness has weakened the Suckers-, but Whiting is nearly well and all Central League fans look to Danville to climb. " The season closes on April S and each team still has about twelve games to play. Local fans are backing their team to win second place, but in order to do this Wiley and his men have got to take a brace. Kokomo. with Houghton on the rurh line, is formidable, and Danville's winning streak bids lair to continue indefinitely. "Witnesses Jn IlInRinB Cnae. NEW ORLEANS, March 19.
