EARLHAM FINDS NEW MATERIAL FOR ALL TEAMS

Coach Whitesides was a visiitor in town yesterday after having completed a little scouting trip for promising available athletes that will enter some college or university this year. The coach is pretty well satisfied with what Information he could gather while on his trip and spoke of prospects for football and basketball with a beaming countenance. Practically all members of thet Fairmount academy basketball team, which finished third in the state tournament, have assured the coach that they will enter Earlham. One ctf the boys, Alva Smith, was selected as allstate high school guard. Jones, Cunningham and Wright also expect to inarticulate. Alfred Smith, hailing from Thorntown, all-state center, will enter Earlham. Smith is a big lad and should make excellent football material.. In speaking of football prospects the coach seemed well pleased with the known line material and also his back field. Kelsey and Hobbs are expected to alternate in Logan's quarter back job. Both Bowen and Thornton will be back so the only regular to be selected unless some lad upsets the dope bucket, will be a half back. Axnett and Fellers will both try out for football, as will Taylor, the fast track man, and Meeks, scrappy basketball player.

Wilbur Robinson. Wilbur Robinson, formerly of the Giants, is directing the Brooklyn Nationals through a marvelous baseball career.

VIGRANS TO BATTLE WILLIAMSBURG NINE The Williansburg baseball team plays the fast Richmond Vigrans Sunday, Aug. 1. Williamsburg defeated the fast New Paris team by a 1-0 score July 18, and in the early part of the season the Vigrans defeated Williamsburg in a 7-inning bout by a 9-6 score.

THE PAILY

SPORT BUDGE'

J9.MH

A neutral fan is one who ne-ver kicks about an umpire's decision no matter how raw it is if it is in favor of the home team. John McGraw won't let his men play tennis. He says it hurts their baseball skill. Looks as if his whole team had been tennising on. the sly.

Dario Resta, the daredevil automobile racer, may not compete in the Elgin (Ills.) races August 20. His wife has pleaded with him not to enter. She fears he will be killed.

Mrs. Resta is the sister of Spencer4

Wishart who was killed while racing,!

in Elgin last year. White Sox fans ask you to look at their infield and to answer their question: "Isn't the White Sox Infield the greatest in baseball today?" The majority of fans are inclined to believe that the Chicago claims are Justified. , Jacques Fournler, at first, Eddie

Collins at second, "Buck" Weaver at!

6hort and Ruf sell Blackburne at third constitute a wonderful quartet, both offensively and defensively. Collins and Fournler are hitting like fiends. Weaver is not a heavy hitter but he has been clubbing the ball

at timely moments. Blackburne, a product of Providence (R. I.) is a fair batter. But it is on the defense where the quartet shines with extreme brilliance. The infield is as fast as chain light

ning, it is sure on ground balls and works together with the smoothness and precision of watch cogs. "Why is it." asks a pugilistic fan, "that Sam Langford knocks out some men in one or two rounds and lets others, stay the limit, although the others look like dubs?" The answer is simple. At the beginning of each bout Sam counts the house. If it's a slim house Sam knows there's no chance for a return match, whereupon he finishes the other guy as quickly as possible. If it's a big house, Sam lets the other guy stay the limit so that a return match will be a

itigood drawing card. 1

ARGUMENT PUTS END TO CONTEST IN SHORT TIME

After a game brimful of arguments right from the go the Kremo's and K. of C. teams ended their game last night after 4 innings had bee nplayed with the Knights in the lead. , Because only four innings were played the result does not stand in the league standing until the next meeting when the matter will be considered. Ringing in players has caused quite a lot of dissatisfaction in the circuit the last two weeks and the Kremo'3 based their arguments last night on the playing "of Gosselin which claim was put forth that he was not to be used. So disgusted did Thornburg the Kremo catcher become that he quit the game. The Kremo's had every thing their own way up to the fourth round but in this inning the Knights fell on to Mays' delivery for 9 solid swipes and with a couple of errors scored 9 times.

He is fielding and hitting like a big leaguer.

BOY SCOUT NO. 392 . VICTIM OF STEAMER

CHICAGO, July 29 "Comrade 396 will be buried with military honors." This message flashed today from troop to troop of the Chicago Boy Scouts. It referred to the little boy of 8 years who has lain since Saturday in a morgue, as an unidentified victim of the Eastland catastrophe. He is known only by number, but his frail little body will be accorded a hero's funeral. The work of raising the funds to pay the funeral expenses of "396" was started today. Boy Scouts in organized bands were also at work trying to identify the body of their comrade. Even if his identity is discovered the boys will ask the privilege of furnishing a guard to accompany "Comrade 396" to his final resting place.

Some horses in Richmond have a very bad habit of occupying almost the entire sidewalk when hitched to the curb, greatly to the embarrassment of many women. The animals no doubt are interested in the excellent window decorations of some of the local merchants and want to get a closer view of the goods on display. The particular animal referred to in this paragraph had his eyes directed longingly at a Palm beach suit. It looked so much like hay that the poor beast evidently thought it was hay. Still the horses should be kept in the street.

CHILDREN'S OUTING COMES TO CLOSE

E-.- church, on -Wednesday returned to their homes under care of their guardian. Miss Close, deaconess. The .little folks were showered with a large number of gifts, all of great usefulness., Through the effort of the class bringing the children here, and especially little George Sarver, who stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bragg, eight more handicapped little men and women will be taken care of at Yankeetown later in the summer. Th class desires to thank heartily each and every one who contributed to the comfort and pleasure of these children while they were here.
