TO ACCEPT SCORE Quaker Pitcher Refuses to Allow Methodists to Earn . Runs, Kindly Passing Visitors 7-3 Game.
SIX INFIELD ERRORS
Sisson Smiles AH Though Contest Charming Earlham Batters, Thirteen of Whom Go to Bench.
DePauw, 7; Ear I ham, 3. While some 300 faithful fans alternately shivered, sighed and lent vocal encouragement, Earlham generously presented DePauw with a 7-3 victory on Reid field yesterday afternoon. Eleven free passes to first and a half dozen errors in the field tells the story of t the Quakers initial loss of the season. ' The Quakers excelled in the hitting department of the game, securing a quintet of bingles to but four registered by. the visitors. The three runs that the local collegians did annex were earned runs which is more than can be said of DePauw's scores. While the markers of the Earlham aggregation were due to timely hitting the counts of the Methodists, with the exception of two, were due purely to the generosity of the local crew. Weather Freezes "Pep." The weather was far too cold for fast play and this may in some way account for the showing of the Earlham flinger. Wallace seemed unable to find himself or the plate. A few times he did manage to locate the plate. The men in the infield seemed to be suffering from frost-bite as they displayed a most woeful lack of "pep." The affliction seemed to have affected the fielders somewhat, too, as the local gardeners found considerable trouble in taking care of the swats that did come their way. DePauw, on the other hand, although getting but four safe hits, played a good game in the field and managed to nip any threatening rally that the Quakers might start. Sission, the Methodist flinger with the ever-present smile, proved effective at all times with the exception of the fourth, and then he managed to extricate himself from a bad hole after sonie slow fielding of his teammates had filled the sacks. Sisson fanned thirteen men as his share of the proceedings and deserves credit for the visitors win. But one error was committed by the invaders, and that by Harris, who let a vicious liner of Logan's escape. DePauw's markers came in the first, second, third and sixth. Bruder, first man up in the initial session, connected with one of the slants of our Mi. Wallace. Harris and Lewis were each presented with free transportation to the first station and standing room on the paths was at a premium. The kind-hearted Wallace at once proceeded to relieve the congestion by passing Bridges, forcing home Mr. Bruder. An infield tap by Sission shoved another Methodist home. DePauw Counts Again. The second stanza was a repetition of the first. Some more of the same liberality of the Quaker heaver caused another count to be chalked up to DePauw's credit. Two free passes and a clout by Moore counted another in the third. The Methodists finished their work of execution in the sixth frame, when Thomas and Bruder scored through infield bobbles and a pair of walks. Earlham enjoyed but one big round, the fourth. As a starter, Hunnicutt cracked a safe one past the second sack. White was passed by Sisson and Stanley got a life on the lone error of the DePauw keystone man. "Cy" Wallace strode to the pan with a do-or-die expression and on the third ball offered him made connections. Way out in left field Moore was seen to turn and run. Then he gazed at the speck in the sky and then he ran some more. And he continued running, too. Things were meanwhile happening on the paths. Hunnicutt, White and Stanley circled the bags
RICHMOND MEETS SPECIALS SUNDAY
Richmond meets the Indianapolis Specials at Athletic park tomorrow. The locals will use the same lineup as in last Sunday's game with the exception of Voltz and Lawson. Voltz will be at second in place of Schroeder and Lawson will likely be seen in right field. In case "Cy" does not show up tomorrow, Kenney will use Dahl, of last year's team to fill this garden. Vordenburg, who pitched a fair game against College Hill last Sunday, will do the pitching for the locals while Whltehouse or Vinson will occupy the slab for the Capital city team. Bacon had been counted on to do the pitching for the locals, but It seems like Jack Remington of Connersville,
has secured the Cincinnati youngster. The team's batting order will be as follows: Indianapolis: Willeford, ss; Kraft, 2b; Lambert, cf; Burk, rf; Doremus, lb; Mitchell, c; Lentz, 3b; Reed, If; Whitehouse, p; Vinson, p. Richmond: McCann, If; Volz, 2b; Merkle, cf; Novack, c; Popkins, lb; Dahl-Lawson, rf ; Lenninger, 3b; Cushing, ss; Vordenburg, p. and when Mr. Moore succeeded In returning the ball to the lot Wallace was resting on third. But this ended the counting of the Quakers, for although several times the sacks would be filled with Earlham runners the tight pitching of Sisson would end the rally and Earlham had to be content with holding DePauw to a 7-3 score.

The men making the best showing in these meets will form the varsity team that will represent the local school at the "Big Four" meet, to be held at Anderson next Saturday. Although all events were closely contested, the mile run featured the meet. Kampe, Bavis and Sampson had it nip and tuck in the long run, with Sampson setting the pace. On the home stretch Kampe uncorked a sprint that over-hauled Sampson and led hi mat the tape by a safe margin. Bavis finished third. The condition of the track held the time of this even down to 5:50. McKee had little trouble in taking the 100 yard dash from a large field of starters. McKee got the jump on his adversaries at the start and held it. Kampe took first in the 220, his time being 27 flat. McKee and Kampe fought it out for honors in the high jump, both men taking the bar at
! five foot. Brehm took the running
broad jump with eighteen feet. White annexed the shot-put in easy style. Summary of events was as follows: 100 yard dash (1) McKee, (2) Keelor, (3) Kampe.

Two osseous plays by Catcher Fisher, of the Dodgers, allowed the Phillies to win yesterday, and now Brooklyn fans refer to the backstop as the headless wonder.

Play Golf Over Graves of Dead
BY FRANK G. MENKE. NEW YORK, May 2. The most gruesome golf links in the world are in Tientsin, China, where a course Is laid out in an immense graveyard. "And it's a mighty good course, too" declares Major Palmer E. Pierce, U. S. A., who returned recently from two years' infantry service in China. "The grave mounds serve as bunkers, the course is pretty level all the way around, and some mighty good scores are turned in. "The custom in China is to place the coffins just below the surface of the ground, and form the dirt that was dug out of the grave Into a mount on the top of the coffin. These grave mounds count as bunkers on this course, and because there are bunkers everywhere around the 18 hole course, it takes some mighty fine playing to get a good score. "Very often during the course of a game some burials take place. Of course in such cases, the golfers try to keep their balls away from the funeral party, but occasionally a player gets a poor drive and the ball bounds into an open grave. In cases where the ball falls into the grave it may be taken out without penalty. The greens are constructed between graves, and they are as fine as on any course in America or England. The caddying charge is 5 cents for 18 holes, and .nearly every day there are numerous fights among hordes of Chinese boys for the caddying privilege. The boys have learned the caddying business and are just about as good at it as the American boys. "Our clubhouse. In one corner of the cemetery is practically surrounded by graves, and, no doubt, is built on a foundation of human bones."
