However at. th last r.ionien; a telegram was received disqualifying Wingate because of using ineigible. players. Wirigate thus forfeited to Fisher and the csme was called off. The crowd realized that Whiting would have easy going- and straightway headed for hom-s. Whiting tok the lead shortly after the starting- whistle. At the end of the first half he score wa.s woefully unbalanced so Coach I ten slipped in his strig of subs and allow-1 thfni to play out the Rams. Great f'oerwork characterized tho work of Whiting at Purdue the same as at Valparaiso. A noticeable feature of the O! City team was the tofal absence of stupe fright on the .strange fp-.jrs.

THE eleven states served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is an empire in area, wealth, population, and industrial activities. It constitutes the largest and most important market for petroleum products on the American continent. To win such a market, to gain the confidence, and enjoy the respect of thi9 buying public is a task worth while. To achieve this objective, to merit the confidence of its patrons, and to be prepared at all times to serve them, ha3 been for many year3 the dominating idea of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). To make its service more comprehensive it manufactures special grades of its products to meet special requirements. For example, take gasoline. Under this general head come fifteen different products, each made with scientific precision to meet a specific, welldefined need. For the motorist the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) makes Red Crown Gasoline. This product is made for the sole purpose of generating power in the modern internal combustion engine. It has a chain of boiling point fractions carefully adjusted and graduated with scientific exactness to enable you to get from your engine all the power it can develop. In attacking the problem of supplying motor gasoline for 30 million people, three main points were considered First Quality: The gasoline must function perfectly: to do this nothing short of scientific precision is sufficient. Second Quantity: To meet the ever-growing demands fcr motor fuel, the yield of gasoline must be great if the cost is to be kept down. Third Distribution: To make it easy for the consumer, wherever he may live, to secure 1 gallon or 1 000 gallons of gasoline, whenever he may need it. In Red Crown Gasoline is symbolized the ideals animating the Board of Directors of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Red Crown is highly efficient it is produced in large quantities, fend Gold at a price that is fair to all. Red Crown has achieved leadership by rendering a maximum of service just aa the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has become a leader in the industry by rendering a definite, positive, essential service. It is by such standards that the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) measures its usefulness, and by maintaining such standards it intends to continue this leadership by meriting the confidence and respect of the public it serves.

Comets, Girls 5 at Irving Gym Comets and Saints and Pevils will clash Tuesday night at Irin;r school gym in a double bill of basketball that should provide local fans'with one of ..he most intcre.uinp duplex athletic treats of some months. The X. E. Comets, one of the strongest junior teams in this part of tii state, and contenders for the city 'title, will meet the equally stronR St. Joeph's A. C. team. The city championship is rather a triangular affair with All Saints team filling- the third antjle. It 13 believed that tomorrow night's contest will c-limina'e either the Comets or St. Joseph's from the city title race. Another drawing card tomorrow night should b? the clash be! ween the l'lutUevil.a. Hammond' fighting girls' t-ara, and the strong- Harvey, 111., girls' team. Not so long ago the Hammond girls were defeated by th; Harvey quintet but the Blue Pevils have since strengthened their team and the contest Tuesday night should be replete with all the w. k. thrills. A further allurement to entice fans to the double bill at the Irving gym tomorrow is the promise that special music will be provided to while away the intermissions.

A subborn. fighting determination to wipe out the defeat handed thi b.-als at a game two weeks ago has taken bold of the Colonial team and the lied Crowns will have to p!?y in tip 1071 form to defeat the Hammond crew. Both teams are In good condition for hi fracas, although if is certain that the Colonial, Ea: Chicago and Gary players have felt some of tl'e efforts of a few hard battles last weelc. Injuries which have kept the Hammond team from running true to form in the last few contests are no longer pestering the locals. "Iteanic" Harris famous Gary s'ar, will be in the harness again in Thursday's game and K the peppery steel city forward is right the Red Crowns will have their hands full. Hunt, famous for his playing with .Stonebreaker. and Paeon at Wabash wil! hold down one of the positions with the Hammond team and will hear watching. Scott of whom there is no whorner and considered by experts to be the best young guard in the state wil! alternate with Thompson while "nig" .Smith and long shot Shelton wil! try to un'.lmber som of the stiffing. mi; of the visiting players. Tne Red Crown lineup will probably lie the same which has carried it through all reason. liana -ire r Griffith Is not venturing an opinion, but silently say that be cannot see anything but the Kod Crowns. Hammond fans are all up in the air over the coming contest and soiiv; arc willing to w3ger a few rubles that the Colonials will come out on top.

(Vy a Staff Correspondent ) NEW Yol'.K, March 13. Jack Dempsey and Harry Willis will meet on Eabor Day. This is the date decided upon by the interests, guiding the destinies of tho match, acording to report-! circulating along Llroadway. It is understood Dempsey is setiotis in his intentions to cross the ocean and indulge in another match with Carpentier and that it will be held before (lie Willis bout. Information from London indicates that Major Arnold Wilson is the promoter wlio will handle the big tight and that most of the preliminary arrangements have been made. Closing of the negotiation rests only on the Ca rpent ier-Ted Lewis battle. If Cirpentler decisively disposes of Lewis. Major Wilson can charge j 1st about what he pleases for the bout and it wii! be held in Albert Hall. Gotham expected to get a line on

Willis in his battle with Norfolk, but the ending of the bout has left many of the fans up i.i the air. In some quarters H is charged Norfolk deliberately "flopped:' in others, the charge is ridiculed. In any case, it was a p:or match. Norfolk never had a chance and was clearly out-classed. Willis impressed the fans with his strength and pliysiq-ie and convince 1 many that he is the most powerful man in the ring today. He has a tremendous reach and can hit straight and effectively with either hand. II.. appears rather weak on defense and haves himself pretty open on the break, but these faults undoubtedly would i! kept more under cover against Dempsey. Jack's favorite in-fighting, however, would do considerable damage to Willis and in the opinoin of many the negro's only chance would be to hold I lie champion off and get in a crushing blow from long range.-

Vigorous nr. a pioneer community: with a wealth of young blood, strong limbs, inusc-.tlar aaile. enthusiastic youths ilarnntontl finds itself sorely handicapped In distinguishing itself in t'ne woild of sport. The reason is not tintt there is no athletic material in Hammond. There is plenty. And of the right, kind. But Hammond lacks facilities for entertaining spectators. It has no bill park, no municipal or private gymnasium easily accessible to worthy teams, and most of all it wants the civic support of the community in spite of the fact hat : a np b'-i-f annals of Hammond have been written some mighty intere-sting sporting events of national reputation. By all the rules of the game Hammond's sporting past should not be allowed to die. Wednesday night In the city council chamber at City Hall, John Millet of tit-? Colonial sporting goods store will preside at a gatherin-g of baseball managers and representatives of all industrial, fraternal and civic baseball teams who are desirous of establishing a city twi-light league. It is hoped to interest enough olubs to form an eight-team league. There ought to

be enough ambition among local fans to guarantee support of a 16-tcam duplex lensue- The meeting Wednesdav night follows mailing letters to all managers. They have been told by Mr. Millet that he has taken the initiative in the matter merely to get it st rated.

Hy the close guarding of Bereolosj and Minon the Gym Class was unable to mak - a basket, making all their i

points on free throws. McMullen was the chief point getter for the Midge's with three points. Final score 9 to 3. Lineup: M I If J ETS,
