S. basketball team completed with the playing of the Rushville game was the most successful one ever recorded in the annals of basketball history at the Richmond school. Sixteen games won out of twenty played represents the best showing ever made by a local Mgh team. Beginning the season with a squad that included three veteran players, Co:tch Nohr has worked his mensfrom the time that the- first. squad reported for the Initial workout early in November. Brown, Porter, and Pitts were the veteran of the winning squad. Meranda and Parker are the new varsity members. Team Starts Strong. Richmond high's first game was played with Mooreland at the Y. M. V. A. lato In November. The showing of the team at that time, 57 to 20, was but a forecast of what was to comr. The Y. M. C. A. gym failed to accommodate the crowd at that first game. For the remainder of the season all Richmond games have been played at the Coliseum. Following the Mooreland massacre, R. (. S. walked over Winchester, Anderson, Connersville, Winchester again New Castle, lfagerstown and Brookviilo. Practically every one of these gamf-s wore 'walk-a-ways. - With nine consecutive games won, Richmond High suffered the holiday trip catastrophe. With Pitts and Mernda, star guarding combination, out or the lineup and stacking up againBt three or the best teams in the state, II. H. S. dropped three games in succession to Lebanon. Crawfordsville. and Waynetown. The three games were played on foreign floors. The dfi'eat at Crawfordsville, 61 to 21, was the worst suffered by the team this tcason. Even New Castle Loses. 1 Arter the holidays the full team was in suit, and Richmond High again took up the broken thread of victories. Stivers High, of Dayton, came, saw and was conquered. Hamilton and Rushville tame to the Coliseum and left .withbadly crimped records. New Castle-Richmond, at New Castle, was the next attraction. What happened at the Rose City camp Is history. Then followed games with Hagerslown. Connersville and Waynetown. The three games were played at the Coliseum and with no exception were nil taken over by substantial majorities. The Waynetown affair demonstrated the difference it made at Waynetown where the Quakers played with but two regulars In the lineup. The Anderson disaster of two weeks ago Turnished a surprise. But Richmond, after a thorough overhauling, 'came back" strong and restored confidence by trampling the Rushville tpw on the foreign floor. The Rush

ville victory was the sixteenth one or the season.

BANKERS ROUT PHEGG ROLLERS

A set of 182-206-231 scores donated by "blind.' was the one big factor in the three game rout of the Pheggs at the hands of the Banker five in the B-M series of games on the association pathways last night. "Blind" averaged 209. (He must have been modest, whoever he was!) The scores: Bankers.'

LISTEN ROOTERS! YOU MUST HELP RICHMOND WIN

Rooting In the last few high school games has not been up to the standard set earlier in the season. The coming tournament will afford an opportunity for the students to redeem themselves. They should bear in mind: That the team doesn't need support so much when It Is ahead as when the opponents are in the lead. That anybody can root when his team Is winning but that It takes a genuine fan to make the most noise for an apparently losing team. That two rooters of the latter kind are worth a bleacher full of the first variety. That the younger Soys can net make as much noise as the older ones. That dates and systematic rooting are incompatible. . That the R. H. S. team will not be beaten in the tournament if every student roots all the time with all his might That Richmond is the logical champion of the district. That over-confidence of rooters and teams loses games.

HIGH AND EARLHAM PRACTICE PASSING

As a means of giving the men an opportunity of perfecting pass work, Coaches H. E. Whiteside and Robert Nohr of the Earlham and high school teams, respectively, allowed their proteges to mix it at the Coliseum last night. No goals were attempted but the two squads merely trying to keep possession of the sphere while passing up and down the floor. Both teams showed an abundance of pep and gave the ball a thorough workout.

Y. M, C. A. PLANS FINANCIAL CANVASS

Six thousand dollars will be raised in the annual canvass for contributions to the Y. M. C. A. on March 28, 29, 30 and 31 according to the action of the Finance committee yesterday. Three thousand dollars will be used to meet current expenses and the balance will be added to the fund to pay off the indebtedness of the association. The budget calls for between $20,000 and $25,000 to meet the expenses of 1916. The report drawn by the committee will be submitted to the board of directors at their meeting Friday night for approval. The committee decided that this year's canvass for funds will be entirely a local affair.

BUD BENNETT WINS.

In the first match of the MartinDickinson trophy series at the City alleys last night, Bud Bennett, A. S. M. light, had the honor of taking the first set from Boyer, 953-943. Bennett worked with a handicap of 150 pins. Boyer's lead was but 125.'

Coliseum Closes Sharp Corners

In response to the recent agitatation that the dangerous corners at the east goal at the Coliseum be eliminated, the Coliseum management has so arranged the goal that the wainscotting has been completely closed. All danger to players has been eliminated. The east goal, more familiarly known to players as the "breakers" has been the source of worry to the basketball contingent for the matter of years. The number of players who have been injured to more or less an extent at this dangerous place has been exceedingly large.

As March winds, flying dust and dirt,

are apt to injure any complexion, this information will be of special value right now. If you ha,ve any cutaneous blemish, don't use paint, powder or anything else to cover it up. Too

often this only emphasizes the defect

Besides, it's much easier to remove the disfigurement with ordinary mercollzed wax. Applied nightly, the wax will gradually remove freckles, pimples, moth patches, sallowness, red or yel

low oiotcbes or any surface eruption. The affected cuticle is absorbed, a little each day, until the clear, soft, youthful and beautiful skin beneath is brought wholly to view. Ask the druggist for one ounce of mercolized wax and use this like you use cold cream. Remove in morning with soap and water. Many who have tried this simple, harmless treatment report astonishing results. If bothered with wrinkles or furrows, a wash lotion made by dissolving 1 oz. powdered saxolite in pt. witch hazel will prove wonderfully effective. Adv. '

FATE OF NLAOI MGOPIES ATTENTION OFDIPLOMATS

BERLIN, Mar,ch 7. The fate of conquered Russian Poland is still hanging in - the balance. Three different schemes are being discussed here by the men who hold the fate of nearly one hundred millions of people in the hollow of their hands. The first scheme, whose originator are the Kaiser, Chancellor von Both-man-Hollweg, and Herr Delbrueck, provide for the incorporation into Prussia of the Polish government of Lomza, Suvalkl and Courland. The governments of Vilna, Kovno, Minsk, and Grodno are to constitute the new kingdom of Poland, preferable with one of the Kaiser's younger sons as king, and the kingdom must enter into a military custom convention with Germany, f The second project, advocated by the German Crown Prince and-Feld Marshal von Hindenburg, , suggests that Poland be divided between Germany and Austria, the former country

to get three-fifths of the conquered territory, including the city of Warsaw. Germany is also to have all the land along; the Baltic coast now in her possession. The third plan, which emanates from Austria, provides for an autonomous kingdom of Poland under the suzeranty of Austria. At present this plan is said to be the most favored one, because it Is considered most likely to be accepted by the civil population of Poland, and because it will permit of an Immediate mobilization of ail men of military age still remaining in the unhappy country. In the meantime all reports from Poland agree that conditions there are going from bad to worse. The country was devastated beyond description by the armies of both sides, and the Russians, when retreating, carried everything away with them, leaving practically not a scrap of metal. Even the rails were removed from the roadbeds

With the celebrated actor, WILLIAM FAVERSHAM In stellar role. A five-act story of Mystery, Love and Intrigue, picturized from the Novel, "One Million Francs," by Frederick Arnold Kummer. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY CLARA KIMBALL YOUNG IN , "CAMHILrlLIE"

POE BROUGHT TO LIFE THROUGH GENIUS OF HENRY B. WALTHALL No tragedy sears the soul of man as the loss of the woman he loves. Edgar Allan Poe, in the death of his wife, drained to the lees the cup of sorrow. To his grief was added the Bting of death by cold and starvation. Through night's long hours he knelt by her body in a bare, wind-swept room, his spirit broken, his soul tasting the dregs of uttermost despair. Out of heart-rending tragedy his genius spoke in "The Raven." He probed to the depths those unfathomable mysteries of life. He pictured the greatest happiness that comes to man Love, and the greatest desolationDeath. This is why "The Raven" strikes straight to the heart. Henry B. Walthall, the Image of Poe, a man of the same mold and temperment, who thinks and feels as did Poe. Interprets America's greatest poet as no other living being could. His genius sparkles on the screen as did Poe's In literature. He gives to the world a living Poe, the Poe of Love and Song, the Poe of Hope and Happiness, the Poe of Desolation and Despair. This great presentation is embodied in Essanay's six-act photoplay, depicting the life of Poe as written by George C. Hazelton and directed by Charles J. Brabin. Mr. Walthall is ably supported by Warda Howard and an all-star cast. See this most remarkable of select dramas, "The Raven" at the Palace Theatre, Wednesday Afternoon and Night.
