NEWS OF THE COUNTY SEAT
East Chicago Wins Game. ! In one of the best games of basket ball ever played here, the local high school team was defeated by the close score of 12 to 14 and considering it was the Initial appearance of the Crown Point five, in a contest this year, against the well-seasoned bunch from East Chicago, the result was more in the shape of a victory than defeat. Each man on the Crown Point team starred a tsome particular time during the evening and the local playing was spectacular, especially in the second half. The East Chicago team put up a great offensive game and had their sails trimmed for fast work at all times. The game was not marred by any rag-chewing or differences, and the sportsmanlike spirit which always
seems to prevail between the two' cities In any athletic contest was plainly evinced last evening, making the game especially enjoyable to the large crowd of spectators and basketball enthusiast assembled to witness the contest. A.return game will be sought and the
Crown Point five hope to redeem their lost laurels on their second appearance
with the East Chicago players. Follow lng is the lineup:
East Chicago Riley, right forward; Clark and brands, left forward; Johns, center; Palmer, right guard; Spence,
left guard.
Crown Point O'ConneJl, right for
