Tonight Indianapolis at New Castle. Friday Indianapolis at Muncie. Saturday Muncie at Richmond. New Castle, 1; Richmond, 0 Barney Doherty, he of the silver thatched belfry, at present captain of the mighty good New Castle polo team, a former taxpayer of Wayne county, a voter of the Fourth ward at one time, about as well-known to the Quaker population as one Tommy Calo he Doherty once made the assertion that "with a good goal tend any one player single handed could defeat any polo outfit In the bush or urban dlstricts." Barney was right It happened last right at the Coliseum. Stuffy Huef-

fner, enlong&ted warden of the New Castle pen, got by with the trick. Very nearly two thousand bugs, one of the huskiest crowds numerically and vocally, saw him do it - Offers Effective Alibi. Several days ago somebody predicted that Richmond would win the New Castle game. As a prognostlcator of polo futures, the author of said Quaker pipe still contends that he did not fall down entirely. His alibi Is this Hueffner fellow. Because, and there Is no denying. New Castle, minus the aid of this Racine section of masonry had no right of war of last night's game. The Quakers deserved the bacon. In fact they earned It. The work of Hueffner was near unranny. His weather eye was fossilized on that little rubber ball and it was case ot "wasted energy" for the Richmond offense to take a shot at the New Castle coop. A blow from behind wight have turned the trick but a shot from In front of the receptacle never. , The score keepers, outside of chalKtng up Hueffner's stops, had an alderman's time of It in the opening numbers. At close of the second stanza It was a case -of nothing at all with the fieads-you-wln-talls-you-lose sort of proposition ruling the boards. Prepares For After Meeting. And for twelve minutes of the goodnight round It continued to look very tfmilar. The congregation was preparing for an additional act. The unexpected happened suddenly. Carney Doherty, amusing the home toiv with a nerles of facial and vocal

contortions, suddenly found himself ilone with the apple. His determination to transplant the sphere from on) section of the floor to the immediate S:inlty of the Quaker pen met "with meopposltIon. However, overruling the remonstranceVof the Richmond defense, Barney Doherty, a son of Richmond himself, a former Richmond player and as good a citizen as ever voted in the ward primaries here, he Doherty handed the ball over to Pop Harkens, who saw to it that it arrived safely at Its destination. Gallery Gives One Groan The gallery groaned. The teams exchanged pens. L. Quigley took the rush. Richmond's valient attack continued. Hueffner did not relax his vigilance. The timer's alarm clock sounded. And the fans went home firm In conviction that this Hueffner

rellow was a regular goal tender ana also that Richmond to maintain tho temporary established supremacy in the I. S. L. will have to keep a weather

rye on this New Castle Dimcn or Barney Doherty. The games In figures: . New Castle (1) Richmond (0) Long L. Quigley First Rush Harkens O.

Likewise the compartments "for passengers with dogs" are to go.

TWO DEGREES ABOVE TURN BOYS' MINDS TO WINTER SPORTS

Winter outdoor sports probably will be extremely popular for the week-end unless there is a break in the weather. Another day and night of cold weather will put ponds and lakes in prime condition for skating and there is already some coasting chiefly on Roosevelt field in Glen Miller. Temperatures below zero were recorded in the city this morning at 7 o'clock. The official low temperature at the water works pumping station was 2 degrees above zero at 7 o'clock. After hitting the low , mark, the mercury turned tail and mounted as rapidly as It could, particularly after the sun's effect was felt. There has been a three Inch snow fall but the thaw took up about an inch, leaving .two inches, according to records kept by Walter Vossler, government climatological observer at the water works.; This was enough for the small boy, but hardly enough for bob sled parties although several were reported to be in course of organization. , Morton lake was solidly frozen over yesterday morning and this morning seemed to be in condition for skating. Hawkins ponds nearby were in the same condition, but the lessees, Parkers, expected to take a test before permitting any skating. Glen Miller lake will not be Bafe unless there is a hard cold snap tonight, the spring water requiring longer to freeze than pond and river water.

8EAS0N OPEN8 FRIDAY

OXFORD, O., Dec. 14 McGuffey high school's basket ball team will open the season tomorrow night In Miami gymnasium with the Xenia high school team.

And while elaborating on the work of Hueffner it is. not to be overlooked that Harry O'Metz also played. Richmond's present majority in the state circle Is about as substantial as the one held by Charles Evans when the bulk of the Western returns had begun to roll in. A victory of New Castle over thi Indians at New Castle tonight will give the Quakers company in the upper berth. But Richmond, winning from Muncie here Saturday night, will again lead the caravan. Frigid weather failed to keep the crowd down last night.-. It was a near full house. Freddie Long, the Indian stowaway, is getting better every day. He made

Lou Quigley split night

the rushes last

' This man Griffith, In the ' Quaker back field, was present again last evening. Griff didn't harvest any goals but he did keep the visitors from reaping a small crop. .

At the gong Richmond was on its feet and swinging for a kayo. New Castle, however, hung on and avoided the impending punch. . The timers bell saved New Castle. This Du Fresnes fellow displayed all the ear marks of a real polo shark. He resembles Harkens and has a style of play similar to the brand that made Ado Mansfield famous. , - Two -night's rest and the Quakers should be in ship shape for the Muncie flare here Saturday night.
