Clarence Hampton will get a tryout with the Richmond club, the popular young catcher having to3ay agreed to work with the locals. ITpon his work tomorrow depends whether or not he will be kept as a regular. His followers are confident that he will make good. There Is one thing certain, no matter how bad he might get away he could do no worse than Knisely did last Sunday. "Hamp" has been playing with the New Paris Grays for the past three years and ns steadily Improved in lining them out until now he leads the team in the hitting percentage. Dave Knisely has been lot out as his work has not warranted the local club in retaining him. His work is far from being up to the point it was last year and his one strength, namely, hitting, has fallen away down. Pick, who relieved him last Sunday, wll! be brought along as utility. That sterling twirl 'r, Lou Thomas, will be on the mound aain for Richmond. Providing he goes as good as last Sunday and the tearr; gives him any kind of support, the doings" for the Cambridge City outfit will be ail off. Opposed to Lou on the mound will be Lefty Nunn, last year twirler for the Hello Boys. Ho made Richmond extend themselves to the limit to win the first game last season, losing out only after ten long and hard fought innings. Mollencamp will be on first for the visitors and old Red Dahl will be out in the garden. Pat dishing will be back at his accustomed place for Richmond. Game called at 2 : .10 o'clock.

QUAKERS WITHDRAW FROM STATE MEET

Earlham will not send ? team to the state track and field meet of the I. C. A. L., which is to be held at Hanover next Saturday. The reason given for the action of the athletic committee is that the funds of the Student Affairs association are so low that it will be impossible to send a team that far. It is probable that several members of the Quaker team will be sent to the state meet at Purdue the week following. This is the first year that Earlham has not sent a team to the I. C. A. L. Karlham was one of the first members of the association and holds an enviable record in the league. Five state records are held bv Earlham men.

BANKERS SLUG BALL

In a regular batfest on the part of the Bankers, the International Harvester team went down to defeat under a 14 to 5 count at the Athletic park last night. Three base hits, home runs and two-baggers were much in evidence when the Bankers got to the offerings of Seth Dingley in the fifth inning and he retired in favor of Miller. Crawford featured in the box for the Bankers by throwing but eight balls in two innings and retiring the side. Score

by innings: 1 4 3 Rankers 1 0 1 I H. C 4 0 1 Batteries Bankers, and Crawford: I. H. S and L. Dingley.

EARLHAM MAY DROP BASEBALL OFF CALENDAR Financial System Proves Inadequate to Needs of Three Branches of Sport Press Suggests Revision. A movement is on foot among the faculty members of the athletic committee at Earlham to abolish baseball from the list of intercollegiate sports at the Quaker college next year. This matter has been discussed informally by members of the committee and it is probable that definite action will be

taken before commencement. Money Falls Short. The reason assigned to the opposition held by some faculty members is that the college is unable to support financially two, branches of spring athletics. Coach Whiteside's opinion follows: "Both baseball and track cannot be maintained at Earlham under the present system of financing college athletics. I believe that Earlham is too small a college to maintain winning teams in both baseball and track and personally, I am in favor of maintaining track. Another factor that enters into this is that it is difficult to get the colleges in the state to adhere to the eligibility rules of summer baseball and professionalism." President Kelly made this statement: "It has only been a few years since Earlham has had baseball, and before that time Earlham had an enviable record in track and field sports.'' A severe protest is expected to be made by the student body, and prominent athletes at the college believe that the authorities will not feel justified in eliminating this branch of athletics when they realize the general opinion of the student body. Especially is this so this year, when Coach Brubaker has worked up a winning team that has a good chance to capture the state penant. Paper Will Protest. It was also indicated by a member of the faculty committee that action would not be taken if they could see the expediency of maintaining both branches next year. It is also understood that the "Earlham Press" the school weekly, is to make a protest against the present method of financing athletics at the college. The estimated loss from baseball and track this year is $400 and the faculty committee has ruled that on account of the low condition of the fund, it will be impossible to send a track team to the state L C. A. L. meet at Hanover. Athletics as well as other student activities at the college are maintained through one association known as the Student Affairs Association. All the receipts from games, etc., are turned over to this association and the expenses of the various branches of athletics are paid out of the fund. The main objection to the present system is that the managers of the various teams do not know how much money they will be allowed, and it has generally resulted that in the fall, when the fund is large the managers of the football teams have been granted a much larger amount of money in proportion to the importance of the sport that is granted to other lines of athletics. It is probable that this method of proportioning funds for the various activities will be charged this year.

MEET ANTIOCH TEAM

That the Quakers' next game with Antioch Monday will be a real battle

! is the prediction of the Earlhamites, wifh the odds favoring their team ! slightly on account of their previou win when they took the long end of a I 7 to 6 score, and because of the team's ; rapid improvement within the last two i weeks. ! The game will be called at 4 o'clock with Little probably starting on the 1 mound and Cy Wallace held in reserve. i Bob Fisher will be behind the bat, where he is perfectly at. home, having the necessary pep for a catcher such ' as the Earlham team needs. Peck will ' umpire.

-convincingly and overwhelmingly for Goodrich. This company alone through the daily press of January 31st gave to the consuming public the most sweeping reduction ever made in tire prices. This established the only genuine Fair-List in existence on non-skid tires today. Goodrich prices were dated February 1st in ordinary course. Other tires were reduced in prices a few days later and the reduction dated back to February 1st.

Every real price-reduction on tires has followed the lead of Goodrich. As always, Goodrich policy and Goodrich methods first gave the tire user the benefit of

reduced prices. We lowered tire cost for every tire user when we did that.

We were more than con

tent to await the verdict

And that verdict is over whelmingly and convincingly in favor of Goodrich Tires and of Goodrich Fair-List prices. We knew that the tire 'user was buying mileageservice he was buying what the tires would do for him, rather than so much bulk rubber and fabric. We knew what our long years of rubber manufacture and tire-making had taught us. We knew we were making tires which had exactly the right amount of rubber and the right quantity of fabric to deliver exactly the right kind of service. We knew that too much rubber and too much fabric would be as detrimental to the service of the tires as too little. The tire user knows that Goodrich led in putting tire prices on their just and proper level.

You pay money for your tires. You want miles from your tires. Goodrich Tires are built to deliver mileage at the least cost per mile, and to deliver it with

the greatest ease, the greatest comfort and the greatest economy. Every ounce of energy, every bit of intelligence, every flash of genius, every atom of efficiency in the whole Goodrich organization has been concentrated . on this proposition of making tires which will surely give the greatest mileage at the least cost. The Goodrich tire user knows that right now, today, with all the stampede to meet Goodrich prices, Good' rich quality is not met and that his dollar buys more tire service in Goodrich tires. "As good as Goodrich" is today the plea. Let us say to you, in all good faith and with every confidence in the fair-mind ed judgment of the tire user, that no other tire made has in it and of it the experience, the know-Aoto and the know-iy which govern the selection and the combination of the exact quality and quantity of rubber and fabric which constitute Goodrich Tires.
