This was largely due to the splendid entertainment given the Valparaiso team while In tho neighboring city. The Crown Point high school and the citizens of that place left nothing undone to. convince their visitors that the real purpose of such meetings is to foster the feeling of good fellowship. The high school boys and principal of Valparaiso are sure that Crown Point has the true spirit of athletics. The game was hard and fast, there being practically no time taken out. The game started at 8:15 and was finished at 9:05. There was not a single grumble from either side and not a thing that marred the sport. All spectators avowed that It was as pretty a game as they had ever witnessed. It was a game royal from the first whistle to the last.

Barney Braverman, also on his way to the ball picked up the bauble at the corner of Block and Michigan avenue while the police department were raking the thoroughfares down which Berkoviti passed en route to the hotel, with a fine tooth comb and flashing search lights over every foot of the way. Berkovit missed the gem In the midst of a dance. As entertaining as he had found his partner, he stopped short in the midst of an entrancing waltz to exclaim, "my ring!" The loss was at once announced Mr. Berkovits offering a reward of $25 to the finder. The police were telephoned and started out on their search and it was while this was in progress that Mr. Braveerman happened along and saw what he at first took to be a bit of glass glist
