The Colonials will have the opportunity of showing themselves to be even stronger than was Indicated In their contest last week, in which they lost to the Chicago Forges, 27 to 25. Since the LaPorte team played the Forges a 23 to 3 game last year, a decisive win for the lia.mmond fellows will almost establish them in a claim to superiority over tho Chicago five. It doesn't seem possible that anyone rould claim a superiority over it's conqueror, but attending circumstances may often be the basis of such a claim. When wCt Hallsday, Smith and Thompson ever again go through an entire basket ball f-anie with but one goal apelce? Never, w venture to predict; and that Is why last Wednesday's performance was not regular or according to form. A paltry goal added to the evening's work any of the three and the score would have stool knotted; and a single break of luck wblch could easily have

With Shelton continuing his accurate basket shooting and the rest but attaining a fraction of thoir true form. XTlUett's Cve sihould bowl over the wearers of the triangular emblem tomorrow. The adoption of the Purdue etyle of playing by the Colonials, dropping the fKe man defensive system, and the consequent addition of the offensive, should work a benefit to the team. The ability peculiar to each of the Colonials makes thera especially adept in plylnff ono man back with the remaining four striving to keep the ball in their own territory. Scott will be the .nan defended upon to toss the ball in from out of bounds, linlladay will act as a sort of key man. working the floor, while Thompson and Shelton will receive the ball at the side lines, pivoting ur dribbling, as the occasion may require. A defensive cannot be arranged which would render useless such a system of passing, so we do not hesitate in passing out a little of the detailed formations the Colonials arc attemplng to master. The bie: Kame tomorrow will

start at 8 o'clock. Admission price to adults will be 55 cents, including war tax; children, 2S cents. Tickets aj-e now on sale at the Colonial and at Monnett's. An interesting feature of th evening entertainment is tbe dance, commencing at 9 o'clock.

TO MEET JOHNSON

Indiana Harbor is beiiisj put on the map when It comes to boxing contests. On Friday, Iec g, Indiana Harbor's champion, namely Ceorgie Ve-iisr, who recently gave EJdie Kaynor a boxing lesson In ten rounds, will -ppear against Morrie Johnson of Pullman. Vtrner, who is a local boy, loves

to fight; in tact, he would rather fight than .aL One of his first battles was with Simons of Gary, who at the present time is lightweight champion in no world of amateurs. Verner out-hit ana out-classed Simons, getting the nowepaper decision. The many folivwers of Verner arc willing to bet everything, they have tht Cecrie will be returned the dinner. Verner at tho present time Is under the old veteran. Jimmy Clabby, and when It comes to teaching th9 tricks in the art ot self defense, there Is no better teacher or instructor. This contest is receiving wide attention and from all indications the house will be filled to capacity. aiorris Johnson, who Is well known around this part of the country, has not had the gloves on for quite a spell and in taking on Verner Le will be mixing It with a youngster who has the strength and endurance to go twenty rounds without getting tired. Freddie Brenman is th promoter of this scrap snd as his first offense was a sucoesa he Is going one better In getting Verner and Johnson for his next card. The preliminaries will bring out some good bantams. Frank Hiplock will referee tho bouts.

"Wilson Optimistic As New Season Opens Hammond High's record on the gridiron thla fall will be eclipsed during the coming season by Its record In basket ball. F. Ewing Wilson, coach at the high school, careful of his prophecies and not fclrcn to effulgent praise, delivers himself of that enthusiastic statement. Wilson does not make such statements without a pretty substantial reason. He has five reasons, and a few more. The five ccmprsie en masse one of the bst basket ball teams Hammond High has toasted for some seasons. "They are a scrappy bunch," Is Wilson's verdict. But they hav. more than scrapptners. They have ability and team work and confidence. The baskets don't come too s"r:all for them a,nd as for shooting from all positions, why those boys are born contortionists. They've already licked the first cam they met. That was East Chicago. The score was S to 7. it might have been larger for Hammond. But the boys kspt forgetting p.ll tho. time they were playing basket ball not football. Now tha they have acclimated themselves to

i the pine board floor and running

pants, Wilson looks for more victories with bigger scores. Next Friday they play Froebel High at Froebel. On the night following, Saturday, they play LaPorte High In the local arena. Tere are the members of the squad: Nichols and Nichols (brothers, yep). Kloighe, C. Ball. Meyers, Gerber, Kmecza and Curtner. And the basket ball schedule: Dec 1 East Chicago at Hammond.

Some economical transportation over 3,368 inilea of mountains, plains, deserts, through rain and

snow. Baker 13 a large man physically, weighing no less than ISO pounds, and this performance is a revelation of what the small motorcycle can do. Hretofore, Baker has usfd an automobile or hih powered motor

cycle in his transcontinental work where speed was the essential strived for, but this1 trip across was to prove the reliability and economy of the little machine he rode. That he did a good job is proved by the nbove authentic figures. His ridii.g time was 7 days, 11 hours: average rate of speed 18 8 miles per hour;miles per gallon of gasoline, J1.4. This brings his average cost for transportation for the entire trip to 1.0058 per mile, a record that will stand for a long, long time.

The forty-ninth renewal of the Grand Circuit has ended after a run of Eixteen weeLs. Between July 5 and the closing ." y the eleven members gave fourteen meetings, at which 274 rac were contested. Of that numbei 161 were for trotters and 113 for pacers. The purses for the vaces in 1022 amounted to $517 012.25. Ist year the total was $584,097.07, the ditferer.ee in the amount', oein;; due to rain. Nineteen hundred and twenty-two i?oe3 -n record as the "wet circuit," Seventeen days' racing were canceled on the sixteen week trip. Of that number Lexington lost four, Dade park and Syracuse three, Poughkeepsie two, r.r.d one each at Chveland, Columbus, ."ilcdo, Hartford, and Readville. The meetin-? at Pouphkeepsie was cu-t to two days and Dade park to three. At Syracuse, where a five day program was planned, the horses were in action on two day3, and fcr abo'Jt one hour in the mud on the third. Lexington offered a tea day card. It was cut to eighi, while the horses were id'e on Labor day at Hartford and raced th.ugh veryheavy footing on th? !.-.' two da? of the meeting. The 1922 series raises the number of meetings given by member of th2 Grand Circuit si:x:e 187.1 to 444. The premiums at tliese meetings amounted to 14,463, 163. IS.
