PLAN BENEFIT FOR KIRKE

A benefit basketball game for Harold Klrke, member of a local football team, Injured at Cambridge City last Thanksgiving, probably will be played at the Y. M. C. A. Friday night, February 25. The game was to have been played late last fall but conflicting dates with Earl ham, high school and Quaker schedules held up the game at that time. Klrke, who suffered Internal injuries that necessitated his removal to the Reid Memorial hospital, has been able to work but little since his injury. Elbert Hale, Clarence' Hampton, Hendy Henderson and others promoting the game expect to make further announcements the latter part of this week.

MUNCIE MANAGERS AGREE ON TERMS FOR EASTERN FIVE A few hours after an official of the Richmond polo club had given out the information that the proposed series of games with the Eastern league representative five might probably fall through, Arthur Campbell, who with an older brother, direct the destinies of the Muncie polo team, arrived in Richmond with the information that Muncie polo team, arrived in. Richmond with the information that Muncie had come to terms with the Eastern management and that the proposed series of games would be played as per schedule. "We have been in communication with Barney Daugherty for some

time," said Mr. Campbell last nigth. "We have practically come to terms with the management of the Eastern team."

CHRIST CHURCH WINS

By defeating the Friars, of Cincinnati, last night, 53 to 24, the Cincinnati Christ Church team, the basketball five billed to meet the Richmond Quakers at the Coliseum Friday night, takes a little firmer grip on its claim to the championship cambric of the Queen City. C. C. C. is regarded as one of the three fastest teams in Ohio and the Quakers seem due for one of the hardest games of the schdule. The Cincinnati team lines up as follows: Koebel, forward; Lichtendahl, forward; Deitri'ch, center; Mall, guard; Jones, guard; Alberts, .sub forward. Four of the above named players are ex-college lights.

Muncie Agrees to Help Bring Eastern Team

KID COLE ANXIOUS TO SCRAP STIGALL

"Kid Cole, Chicago mitt exponent, who meets Art Stigall, at present of Richmond, in the head line act of the boxing show at the Fort Wayne avenue K. of P. hall Friday night, arrive! on the scene of battle this morning. He will complete training here. "Artha and me are old rivals,' said Cole, in conversation with newspaper men this morning. "We have' mixed twice now and as both bouts terminated in draws it's up to either one at us to get in a clean-cut win tomorrow night. I appreciate Stigall's power but feel I have the ability to make a clean-up." continued Cole. Walt Polk, promoter of the show, announced today that he had taken steps to insure perfect order among fans.

Shows Finer Points. Last night at the Coliseum before a tapaclty house this same aggregation of visitors sailing under the non de plume of the Muncie polo team demonstrated some of the finer points of the game to "Sox" Quigley and his Quaker help. From the Muncie stand point it was a great battle and the 7 to 4 majority taken over by the Delaware county contingent was satisfac.tory to the upstate team. Coming down on the afternoon C. & O. yesterday Mr. Fig Newton who has a host of local admirers, suggested to Manager Art Campbell of the Muncie team: "Art, Richmond's my home town you know. Some of the old guard down there don't think that Newton can play polo. Let me show 'em tonight. Campbell being of a kindly disposition and not wishing to slight his first string sub. gave Newton the assurance that he should have the chance to "eat 'em up." Newton Gets Chance. Consequently when rival forces took

the court for the opening eun. Fig Newton, a native of Richmond, who didn't believe that the Quaker friends bolieved in him, was at center for Muncip. Kdftington was on the bench. . And to say that "Newt" fulfilled hi& promises to the Muncia management vioiild bo hut a wh'.sper. Two of the seven goals garnered by the hickory of tho up-state team were derivations from the cudgel of the erstwhile residnt of the "Panic Proof City." Newton didn't outshine his running mates, Williams f.nd Fahrner, to any great extent but the fact remains that he did make good lu his first appearance. As to the game itself, "heartbreaker" is a word that describes the action fairly well. Muncie had no lease on that game whatever last night and had Dame Fortune given, the local crew a fifty-fifty break, the flag of victory, figuratively speaking of course) would have floated from the pinnacle of the Richmond Coliseum instead of from the dome of the Campbell Brothers rink at Muncie. And leaving aside detail, it might truthfully be said that Richmond would have annexed last night's game

in a walk were it not for the clever, spectacular and near-uncanny work of Pence, the Muncie goal tend. That Pence is the peer of anything wearing shin guards today is a fact that is impressed upon local fandoin every time Muncie comes here for a game. The statistics show that Pencei had 46 stops. Jimmy O'Metz, the Quaker pen custodian, had just half that number. 23. That means that Richmond rushers were just twice as aggressive ns the fore men of the upstate craft. Were Richmond working against a goal tend of mediocre calibre it is a safe bet the ' Quakers would have copped at least 5 markers. As it were, however, the following lineups, score and summary of the game show just why Richmond didn't perform the trick: Muncie. ... Richmond. Williams'-.. L. Quigley ;; First Rush Fahrner O. Quigley Second Rush Newton Evans Center Huston . Griffith Halfback Pence 7 O'Metz Goal.
