Saturday Indianapolis at Richmond. New Castle, 3: Muncie, 1 NEW CASTLE, Ind., Dec. 29. Although the Richmond team remained at home and did not venture forth to ctart anything lt night. New Castle ttarted something that Muncie could not finish and as a net result the Quakers slipped from the top of the I. S. L. heap and are today taking the dust of the New Castle machine. New Castle's victory over Muncie was clear cut. Muncie was outclassed on both the offensive and defensive. New Castle took an early lead in the first period when Harkens scored one after some six minutes of speedy play. Again in the second round Harkens evaded the Muncie defensive combination and 6llppcd home another. With this lead New Castle dropped back on the defensive and for the remainder of the game merely saw to it that Muncie did not start anything. Essays Peace Dove Role In the final neriod Muncie resorted to free-for-all tactics In an attempt to overcome the New Castle margin. Here Doherty and Du Fresnes entered the ring and for the time being a youns; war hovered near. Harry Thompson In the role of peace dove finally quieted the more or less impolite work of the belligerents. No blood was spilled, although more than roitph words were used in soothing the feelings of the different combatants. Last nlpht's game marked the close of the week's schedule for New Castle. Unless the Quakers win from Indianapolis Saturday night, New Castle will finish the week's activities in the honor position of the state circle. Details of last night's game: New Cattle (3).

Maybe New Castle has more than' its reputation for luck. Because that team is winning a bit too often to class all its games fluke wins. Back before the home folks Du Fresnes uncorked more of the rough stuff last night. The Frenchman even admitted that he (Du Fresnes) was as rough as a fie. At that : Pre xy Polncaire's subject was the victim of the break last pipbt. A beautiful drive off his staff failed to remain In the pen.' . Art Williams, the Muncie light, fell away down last night. The only thing Williams filled was his position at first rush. Freddie Pence recently confided to an intimate friend that he (Pence) was going back. Fully 2,500 Richmond fans knew Freddie's secret days ago. Muncie was Just a trifle peeved by the treatment accorded them at New Castle last night On the home floor that New Castle crowd will stop at nothing short of manslaughter. Time and again Referee Thompson warned Barney Doherty who, it seems, PARKER MAY QUIT SCHOOL TQ ENTER PURDUE IN SPRING Russel "Bus" Parker, captain and center of the Richmond high school basketball team, may quit high school at the close of the present term the latter part of this month. Parker will have enough credits at the close of this term to Insure his graduation in June and therefore will not necessarily Bnlsh his regulation course of four years' work. Reduces School's Chances What this means to R. H. S. every basketball fan interested in the school team well knows. It means that Richmond will lose one of its best players rnd that the chances of R. H. S. finishing high in the state lists will be greatly diminished. Parker is planning to attend Purdue University and may start there at the opening of the spring term. Purdue representatives visited Parker here today and It Is understood offered the R. H. S. athlete inducements to join the athletic colony of the state school. Should Parker decide to quit R. H. S. he will play his last game in the Richmond uniform against New Castle at New Castle, Jan. 20. RUSHVILLE IS NEXT LOCAL OPPOSITION - Inasmuch -as charity balls and basketball games do not go hand in hand very well, especially if the two events are slated for the same floor at the same time, the Kokomo-Richmond high school basketball game proposed for tonight has been cancelled. Richmond high school's next opposition is Stivers high at Dayton a week from tonight. Rushville at Richmond January 12 is the next at-home game of R. H. S. HARD LINES FOR BOY8 WHO USE "Y" PHONES AS COURTING MEDIA Pity the poor high school swain. The Y. M. C. A. authorities have decreed that association phones are "business" phones. Hereafter the young blood seeking an avenue of connuhlal entertainment via the telephone will have to seek out another wire to transmit his greetings to the lady in question. "It's getting to be too much of a good thing," said Secretary E. M. Learner yesterday after he had been Informed by a phone "trouble shooter" that the three "Y" lines were all in good working order but that three youths and a waiting list were the cause of the busy-buzz. 10, 15, 20, 25, 40 Watt, Good Service

Tea Lewis says his team has hit its stride and the winning streak of one game inaugurated at New Castle Monday night will be intact when the Muncie and Richmond groups have been disposed of. There's no doubt about it PLAYS TWO GAMES ON JANUARY JAUNT ACROSS THE STATE According to Faculty Manager Charles Towle, the Richmond high school basketball team in its annual cross state trip the latter part of Jauuary, will play only two games, Waynetown at Waynetown, January 26, and New Richmond at New Rich mond the following day. The Lebanon and Brazil contests which had been pending have been definitely given up. Manager Towle explained that a four game trip would necessitate the absence of the basketball squad from school for at least four or five days. The high school authorities would not consent to this he says. News of the cancellation of the Lebanon and Brazil contests means a keen disappointment to the basketball squad. Last year the R. H. S. squad made Its trip during the Christmas holidays. It was, however, Impossible to arrange the trip during Christmas vacation this year. DOG KILLS CHICKENS; WOMAN SHOOTS DOG OXFORD, O., Dec. 29.

WEATHER MAN TELLS HOW TO CLASSIFY WAVES AND BLIZZARDS

"All cold waves are riot blizzards, but all blizzards are cold waves, quoth W. E. Moore, weather forecaster, today. Mr. Moore said he was anxious to explain the distinction In response to repeated queries. A cold wave implies a 30-degree drop in temperature in 24 hours. A blizzard Includes this characteristic of the cold wave but Is accompanied by snow so thick that objects can not be distinguished ,at 50 feet and with temperatures near zero. Real blizzards are practically unknown here but are common on the western plains between Canada and Texas. PACKAGE PARTY GIVEN BY NEW PARIS FAMILY NEW PARIS, O., Dec. 29.
