The Muncie-Indian game at. Mutieie last night was more or less of a pitched battle. It was a case of give and take with Arlie May finally booting another one away for the Indianapolis section of the circle. May missed 'em at a rate of one out of five, thus easily maintaining his reputation as the rankest goal tend in the game. The figures of the contest: Muncie (6) Indianapolis (5) Williams Lewis F. R.

DAZZLING SPEED OF LOCAL BOYS

HUMBLES A. H.

Richmond, 44; Anderson, 26. R. H. S. basketball in the palmiest days of Murray, Allison, Haas, Spangler, Thornburgh, Marlatt, Ferling,

Hfatt. Mayer, Hart, Laning and Brown -brightest lights of the indpor sport, for generations basketball as played ! y R. H. S. teams in years past, had

i rthlng whatever on the performance of the 17 Richmond five in its en

gagement with the strong Anderson representatives at the Coliseum last night. There might have been at some time or other during the misty past an R. H. S. team the equal of the one that stowed the Anderson hopes away so easily last night. But one thing remains a certainty there never has been a better one. Basketball as played by Coach Lyboult's charges last night represents the sky mark in R H S. basketball history. Enters as Second Choice. Richmond high school in its game with Anderson last night was stacked up against a team rated as one of the best in the state. Richmond entered the game a second choice on the basis of comparative scores. Anderson held the Muncie team to a four point lead, rolled, up ten more points than Richmond did against New Castle. The Anderson team coached by one of the wisest basketball mentors in the country Russ Baker represents one of the best basketball organization in the 1. H. S. A. A. A. But 'at that, all Anderson had last night was its reputation. Richmond had its goat. The Anderson five displayed plenty of class, scrap and ability, but it was up against a better proposition. Anderson was a whipped team from the minute it trotted out on the floor. . Stage Classy Basketball. The contest itself developed some spectacular work on parts of the op

posing factions. Both teams played the game for all there was in it. The battle dragged infrequently. O'Neal, the R. H. S. star point getter, started Richmond away to a large evening. The kid was all over the floor. When the ball left his hands enroute for the goal the juveniles operating the score board marked the two point addition before the ball had settled. O'Neal's near uncanny, accuracy with the hoops forecasted the Anderson doom early in the contest. And then after Richmond had tucked away a safe lead, Tobe Jessup, O'Neal's team mate, began to get familiar with the basket. Jessup's nine field goals went a good way toward tying up the Anderson goat for keeps. Parker is Supply Station Then there was this Parker fellow, upon whose services O'Neal and Jessup largely depended. Parker was the supply station. Jessup and O'Neal the distributing agents. Shelton and McBride were senior members of the firm and are not overlooked in dishing out the laurel stuff. McBride especially

was a bear when it came to the heavy part of the clean-up work. For Anderson, Captain Miller played consistently. Seven of the eleven field goals rolled up by the visitor i were tossings of the A. H. S. leader. Baldwin and Olvey were other high spots. The minute details are contained in the following set of figures:, -Anderson Gls. Fls. Msd.Pts.

EARLHAM DEFEATED BY STATE SCHOOL IN REGULAR SCRAP

BLOOMINGTON, , Ind., Dec. 16. Outplayed and outlucked but not outfought the Earlham basketball five dropped a 44-24 argument to the I. U. leather tossers here last night. The game was speedy and not as one-sided as the score would indicate. For Indiana Captain Buschman led with seven field goals. Smith and Cutrell were the Quaker bets.

Looking Throughthe Hoops

WITH FRANK DUNING

The Alumni game is the next offeringDec. 22. A young blizzard kept many a fan in port last . night. At that Richmond batted only .333 in the basketball circle last night. The Quakers and Earlham . were thumped. Nat Segal, sage of the Quaker fan colony, in analyzing the Quaker defeat asserted that the Quakers did not score often enough. ' In its infancy that alleged witticism wasn't so bad.

Without Bassett, the Quaker showing would have been childish indeed. Bassett wasn't marvelous but he was a lot better than the rest of the team.

It was a cloudy night for Herb Logan, a star. Somebody was cruel enough to suggest that they change the name to Quackers. Focus your orbs on this Muncie team. Last night's result Muncie, 26; Marion, 9. Something of a come-back was Wingate's 31-11 victory over Crawfordsville last night. 1

Lebanon Is still going strong. Lafayette was shocked last night, 21-13. Thorntown, too, threatens to return. Frankfort was bumped last night, 51-14. Connersville came out second In its argument with Shelbyville, 30-18.

No mention will be made of New Castle. That team has enough notoriety.
