OTHER GAMES CARDED The first contest of a hard February basketball card for the Em Roes will be played next Tuesday night at the Y. M. C. A., when the Dayton Triangles will be tackled. This will make the second time a game has been carded with the Buckeye team. <>n the other occasion the Dayton team failed to make connections at Richmond in time to get here for the contest, forcing Manager Calls han to cancel the contest. However, the strength of the Dayton five is such that they asked for another contest, assuring the Em-Roes they would make their ap pcarance in time for the game. If was only after this assurance that Manager Callahan consented to arrange the game. The next home game on the Em-Roe card will be against the DePiiuw team on Feb 14. if Coach Buss of the Tigers can see his way clear to grant the date. He has assured the Em-ltoes if the date does not conflict with his present schedule he will bring his Speed Five to Indianapolis for a return game with the Fun-Roes. In a previous contest the Doi’auw five walked rough shod over the Fun Roes. However, tllls was when the local five was beginning to round into form. Since then hard games have served to put Manager Callahan’s five in the proverbial “pink." On Feb. 17 the Oswega Giants from New York will play on tho Y. M. C. A. floor against the Em-Roes. The Oswega team boasts of one of the strongest independent teams in the east. On the team are two heroes of the world war, both of them received medals for bravery from Gen. Pershing. Feb. 24 will see the Detroit Itayls playing here. The Itayls have one of the best Independent teams in the middle west, having played together for several sea sons. Tlieir coming here will make their first appearance on an Indianapolis floor. Their record this season has been presumptuous. Besides these home games the EraRoes have five or six tough contests on the road, which will serve to keep the team in great shape for the remainder of the season. Baseball Bits] y BREWERS AT EVANSVILLE. EVANSVILLE. Ind.. Feb. 4.—Announcement was made Tuesday that the Milwaukee baseball team of the American Association will do its spring training at Bosse field in Evansville.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 4.- Miller Huggins, manager of the New York Americans, on his return Tuesday from Trappe, Md.. where he went to sign "Home Run" Baker, the Yankee third baseman, said Baker told him that if he decided to return to the diamond he would let him Know. “It's an awful time to talk baseball."

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.—The Chicago National league baseball club Tuesday signed Clarence E. Twomblv, Lehiglt university athlete, a first baseman and outfielder. He is a brother of Frank Twombly. formerly in the majors. Manual’s Two Games Keen interest is being taken in Manual's game with Tipton tonight and the comiug game with Martinsville Saturday night. Both games will be.played away from home and the south side boys will have to show much added punch to win. Tipton has been showing well in the last few weeks and to put over a win, at their school, will mean to play real ball. The two teams seem to be in about the same class and tile game should prove interesting from all points of view,

The old man stood 238 clubs on their car and the kid was good in every game, getting 210 in the second round. The Fausts shoot with the New Style Lagers aud paved the way for that team's two time win over the Ferndales.

The Thornton Coffee men owe old man luck a vote of thanks for saving them from a three game defeat in their match with the Krause Bros. Relnking and Thompkins went big in their first and third games and the Krause combination scored two wins. In the third round the aforementioned big boys got 229 and 226, respectively, anil gave the Krauses a 984 total, the best In the loop. The Hoosior Oils lost the first one to tlie Luekv Strikes, but they enjoyed one grand victory after another In the second and third. y.cnltc Metal went below par and the Hamilton Crew took two games with ordinary counts. It looks like the Capitol Specials tire gone for good. The Heller Coal outfit took two from them last night. The Stegemeiers didn’t have a chance with the Feeney Furnitures.

State Basket Title Practically Annexed by Purdue Quintet Lambert’s Men Brace Second Half and Nose Out Fast DePauw Five. LAFAYETTE. Ind.. Feb. 4.-In a con test that practically decided the state college basketball championship of this season Purdue nosed out the strong DePa uw quintet here last night, 26 to 25. It was the second victory by a one point margin scored by the Rollermakers over the Tigers and practically was de elded by Coul goals. The gymnasium was packed for the big , game and the fans were given u contest of thrills. DePauw grabbed the lead by sensational basket shooting and led at half time, 19 to 13. but Purdue spurted at the opening of the second period and eventually won a lead The guarding of the Purdue team held up and Miller, the big back guard, i.gi.in won the plaudits of he crow l.v Ills efficient work Iti this rpapeot. Both squads fought hard every inch of tho way and there's little doubt but that the two teams <>n the floor last eight represent the best the state has this seasons. Coach Lambert's athletes plated to his instructions and the system pulled them through in about the tightest game ever witnessed here. Church, the Purdtip speed artist, stuck close to Cannon. Where Gannon was. was Church, and the little Boilermaker held his rival down to two baskets, both of which were shot from around the center of the floor. Tllson seemed to bear the brunt of the Methodist*.' attack, hut despite constant watching he secured four baskets, three of them In the second half, when every point was worth its weight in gold. The contest was perhaps the cleanest one a Purdue five has ever played, but two fouls being called on tlie team during the forty minutes of play. Carlisle lead the DePauw offensive in the first half, getting four baskets, but he was given no chance to repeat during the last period, being unable to get in one from the field. He retired in favor of Bills toward the end of the game. Millpr was Jerked about the end of the second half, and Curtis took his place. Moffet played a great game for DePauw at floor guard, constantly hammering the work of the Boilermaker forwards. Mendenhall kept his team In the running in the last half by scoring two pretty shots from around the center of the floor and also by putting up a great game at back guard. A whirlwind offensive in the first five minutes of the last period by the Boiler'makers won the game. Campbell Tilson scored within tbe first two mltv utes and Church sent the crowd wild by tying the score. The eouut again seesawed. Play was desperate in the final minutes. A long basket by Curtis with thirty seconds left to play put DePauw within a point of Purdue, but that shot ended it. Lineup and summary: Purdue (26). DePauw C 25).

season, but Coach Wertz has been working hard with his tnen since the season opened and he promises to open the eyes of the fans when he trots them out against the “bones." That little word, “undefeated.” together with the fact that the Palr-o'-Dice have trounced several of the crack teams of the state, makes them the favorites to win. Indications are that things will happen fast when the Debonairs and "Y” Leaders get together. This will be the third meeting of the season for these two clubs and the "Debs" have been slapped in the eye with defeat twice, but they were on the Leader floor when this happened and the tale is apt to be changed after tonight’s game. Butler Bows to Franklin Butler fell an easy victim before the attack of Thurber’s Franklin team last night at the Butler gym. 41 to 15. In only the ftist period did tho Christians show any basketball and then they were behind at the end of the period, 15 to ~ Ross’ work, coupled with that of Pike, was the bright feature of the Franklin team’s play. During the second period, Butler’s defense went to pieces and its team work was ragged. Shockley and Short tried long shots, but were not hitting. which, in part, was responsible for the lack of scores on the part of the Butlerites. Last night's contest was probably the last that Rosenstheil will play for Butler this year, according to a report given general credence on the campus. This news was the result of the fact that the center had failed to pass in enough subjects to place him on the eligible list for the coming semester. If Rosenstheil is really ineligible, then Butler will lose a good mail, for it was due to his inability to play the entire game last night that the team work of the Blue and White squad took a slump.
