RICHMOND'S LOSS
FAILS TO LESSEN ENTHUSIASM NEW Red and White Rooters and Team Display Genuine School Spirit With Band and Yells. NEW CASTLE GETS 31-21 Henry County Team Shoots Baskets With Accuracy, While Locals Fail in Nu1 merous Attempts. Even defeat failed to east gloom over the spirit of Richmond high school last night. The Red and White lost the first basket ball game of the season on the local floor to New Castle, 31-21. but the students left the "Y" gymnasium with a new brand of school loyalty. It was the kind of spirit that supports the team all the way through the game and season, whether it wins or loses. Such enthusiasm promises a new era in high school athletics. A howling crowd, mostly of high school students, filled the balcony and bleachers which had been erected at the west end of the gymnasium. Kvery play brought forth rousing cheers. The continuous yelling spurred Loth teams to put up one of the hardest fought games ever seen here. Girls Wear School Colors. Nearly one hundred girls, wearing white middy suite with red ties, filled one end of the seats. They yelled and sang with genuine spirit. On the bleachers beneath a band of fifteen pieces, organized for the occasion, gave forth an inspiring brand of noise. The musical organization promises to be a fixture at remaining games as Without an equal in arousing enthusiasm. Principal Pickell was more than pleased with the actions of the student body. "That's the spirit we have been trying to develop for a year," he said, proudly, as the rooters urged the team on until the last gong sounded the defeat. Richmond was defeated but not outfought. Every man on the team put every ounce of his strength into the game, even playing harder than ever when defeat was practically certain. In the last half the Ited and White fought New Castle to a standstill. They took almost twice as many shots at the basket, but could not cage the markers. Although taking fewer shots at gral, 'ew Castle made every chance count, thereby winning. Failure of the guards to cover their men in the first half proved costly to Richmond. Brown Proves Star. Brown, forward for Richmond, was the scrapper of the game. He played his man off his feet, covering him in great style. He was in the play all the time and made more points than any cf his teammates. When he went into the scrimmages he almost invariably came out with the ball. In the second half, while jumping with Chrfitraan under the basket, he tipped the oay in for a neat goal. Luwson, captain and center for the Henry county boys, played almost faultless ball, putting up a clean game. Karnpe was also a star, but his playing was marred by many fouls for holding. ISoth are former Richmond hoys. Richmond started off with a rush and made the first goal after about two or three minutes of play on a pas by Porter to lirown, who dropped it In neatly. Both teams appeared to be pretty evenly matched and fought for some time, when a foul was called 0' Chrlstinan for holding and Porter made one from the foul line. Xew Castle seemed to wake up about this time and on a long pass by Williams to Gordon, they scored the first goal. Shortly afterward Katnpe threw a foul goal and from that minute on New Castle was in the lead. The first half ended with the score standing 17 to 10 in favor of the Henry county lads. Richmond was awarded a point toward the end of the first half on a

Both Teams Guard Close. The second half started showing that both teams had instructions to do closer guarding and for the first five minutes or so neither team scored. Porter, who had been very closely watched during the game by his guard, was left uncovered for a short period and he made a pretty shot after receiving a pass from Bavis. Here Laning and Johanning were taken out and Loehr and Pitts substituted. Pitts was in but a very short while, when he came down the floor, received a pass from Loehr and caged a goal. Pitts, who relieved Johanning at guard, played a very good game for the short while he was in the line-up. Porter, who generally puts up a very clever game at forward, was not able to do very much last night, on account of being very closely guarded. The score. Richmond. Fd-G Pl-G Fl-G-M Fls.

Jimmy Clabby's victory over George Chip last night stamps the Indiana boxer as one of the cleverest men that has ever j donned a glove. He won so far from I the Xew Castle middle-weight that a tabulation of the rounds is almost a ! farce and the decision of referee Benny Zeling was a mere formality. In only three rounds, did Chip have anything like an even break, and these three rounds could be given to Clabby without doing Chip an injustice.

40,000 TO WITNESS CLASH AT HARVARD Game With Princeton Lacks Championship Factor Because of Defeats. FRANK MENKE. BOS'. Masf;., Nov. 7. Forty thousana persons separated themselves from $2 each on this beautiful autumn day for the privilege of watching Harvard and Princeton battle each other in the afternoon on the Soldiers' field gridiron. Usually the championship of the East is involved in the annual meeting of the Tiger and Crimson warriors, but this year Harvard and Princeton battled today mainly for the championship of Harvard and Princeton. Both teams have what might be called blots on-their escutcheons the games with the so-cal'cd "Smaller" elevens and the blots robbed the game of its usual championship calibre. FOOTBALL GAMES West.

Fans Feast Eyes on Gowdy; Boston Hero Tangoes Belles; Hank Modest Despite Glory
"Hank" Gowdy, star attraction of a large automobile touring party of Ohio State university students, enroute from Columbus to Indianapolis, arrived in Richmond last evening and took the town by storm. The tourists spent the' night in Richmond and left this morning for Indianapolis where they will root for Ohio football team in its battle with moleskin artists representing Indiana university. One woman was found last night who did not know who Gowdy was although she admitted she knew who the president of the United States was. Perhaps there are a few other unfortunates likewise sadly misinformed, so a few words about this Gowdy person are probably necessary. Henry Hank Gowdy is a tail, rangy, modest youngster who was first catcher on the Boston National league team, now toting about the title of "baseball champions of the world." In the recent world's series dispute with the Philadelphia Athletics, American league champions, who had hitherto held a mortgage on the world's championship stuff, Mr. Gowdy proved very annoying to his club's adversaries by S pounding out at times most inopportune to the Athletics divers home runs, three baggers, doubles and singles. In fact he almost won the four games of the series all by himself. Gowdy is Real Hero. j Therefore Mr. Gowdy today is a j baseball hero and is having the time : of his young life. Arriving at the Wesicott hotel last : night an army of rabid baseball bugs, some of whom Gowdy had pauperized because they wagered their collateral upon the Athletics, fell upon him and in two seconds he was giving them the "inside dope" of the series. Each sentence he uttered was punctuated with "Rah, rah, bing bang, chow-chow, Gowdy, Ohio," rolling fori h from castiron lined throats of the students from LOSS FOR EARLHAM MEANS LAST PLACE N- SECONDARY RACE Quakers, Ballered and Crippled, Prepare to Make Desperate Stand Against Engineers et Rose Poly. The Quakers will meet Rose Polytechnic at Terre Haute this afternoon with a crippled squad, despite this Coach Whiteside believes they can emerge victorious. It was announced Friday afternoon that Thornton, who has been playing a good game at half back, will probably be out of the game on account of injuries received last week which have been growing worse. He has been out at practice every day this week, however, and may be used part of the game this afternoon. Logan is also nursing a bad arm and Bond is out on account of parental objections. Dick Mills has been shifted to the left half position and Spruce, the Freshman, will probably start the game in Thornton's position. Darnell will play part of the game at the pivotal position. A defeat of the Quakers this afternoon will practically mean a sure place in the cellar, for Rose has been defeated by Del'nuw and Wabash 'and Franklin. A surprise was sprung yesterday when Hanover defeated Franklin and a defeat for the Quakers this afternoon will mean vanishing hopes for victory in the games with Franklin and Hanover later in the season. With this result in view, the Quakers left for Terre Haute this morning determined to defeat the Engineers. important.

Columbus, where Gowdy resides. After Gowdy had fought his way to the clerk's desk and had registered, he retreated in wild disorder to the! elevator pursued by boys, bookkeepers, stenographers, lawyers, manufacturers and one preacher, all desperately attempting to shake hands with him. A little later Gowdy emerged from the sanctuary of his room displaying another cap and a clean collar. He fell into another human whirlpool and as he was swept headlong to a
; bowling alley he could be heard to say occasionally above tne uproar: "Yes, I am Gowdy, glad to meetcha." "No I haven't signed with the Feds, but I certainly gotta swell offer from the Brooklyn Feds in New York the ; other day." "Our pitchers were the boys that beat the Athletics," etc. Get Gowdy at Dance. To the indignation of the fans at the bowling alley another party outgeneraled them, captured Gowdy and dragged him forth to a dance hall, i where many of the prettiest young society buds were hesitating and tan- ; going. j The dancing master promptly form ed tnem in a circle ana Dowing to Gowdy exclaimed, "Ladies and gentlemen, I want to introduce you to 'Home Run' Gowdy." No other statement on his part was required. Ap plause swept the room, Gowdy bowed ' and seized the prettiest girl standing ; near him and swept her away to the ; si rains of an entrancing tango. He proved himself to be as an accomplished ball room performer as he is an artist on the diamond. Gowdy, like most "big league" players, is a modest, well mannered, temperate and unassuming young fellow, chuck full of the joy of living. Ap parently the hero worship he has fall en heir to has left him absolutely un spoiled.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 7. With a record of five games won out of the five flashes between the two schools, Indiana university went on the field here today determined to keep this record clean. The Ohio State eleven was equally determined to break into the winning column. Governors Cox and Ralston were interested spectators. Two specials from Blcomington and one from Columbus and an automobile caravan brought thousands of shouting rooters to the city early today. With bands playing and banners flaunt ing the school colors, the students paraded downtown streets, blocking street car traffic for a few minutes. Business houses are decorated in the cream and crimson of Indiana and the scarlet and gray of Ohio. The city has caught the college spirit. Dope when the teams trotted on the field shortly after 2 o'clock favored the Buckeyes, who recently held the strong Wisconsin to a 7-6 score. Indiana supporters are basing their hopes on the w-onderful showing the team has made in the last two weeks, when both Northwestern and Miami were trampled by good scores.

HARVARD'S MAINSTAY IN GRIDIRON FIGHTS
Eddie Mahan, lightning fast back of the Harvard varsity eleven, who, as a result of the disability of Captain Charley I5ric-kley, is looked upon as the Crimson's most valuable player. Mahan, while a good ground gainer in line plunging, is one of the most dangerous men in the game in running through an open field with the ball.
