which starts with the Richmond-Rush-ville game tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock. The bulk of the visitors will arrive tomorrow. A scattered quota of the invading party will be here by this evening. Traction, steam roads and automobiles will bring the teams and visitors. School Takes Recess. Richmond high school will dismiss Friday at noon. A solid session featured by a "thusm" chapel meeting in the morning, will start the day at Richmond high schools. Reception committees of the R. H. S. students will meet the incoming delegations and escort them to their respective places of lodging. The teams will be quartered at the leading hotels. Students will take care of student-rooter followers. The teams will dine at the high school spa. Interest of the R. H. S. basketball colony centers around the RushvilleRichmond game, the first of the tournament. Rushville is recognized as the

second best team in the district and may give the locals trouble. A defeat at the hands of the Rush county boys would mean the bleachers for the R. H. S. squad for the rest of the tournament. Richmond Plays "Rushville. Richmond, pitted against Rushville, in this first game, will be stacked up against one unfavorable condition. Referee Bishop, of New Castle, who handles this game,. 13 and always hs been a flea in the eye of the R. H. S. teams. Bishop has a tendency to 6low up a game- with his dilatory methods of calling fouls and starting play after a field goal has been thrown. With Rushville out of the way, Richmond will don street clothes until 0 o'clock Saturday morning when Union City gets the chance to take over the R. H. S. goat. Successfully through the Union City fracas, R. H. S. plays in the semifinals Saturday afternoon and then in the big and final game Saturday evening.

PEN WARDEN FAILS TO SMOTHER SHOTS OFF EAGLE CLUBS

RICHMOND SIGNS BADE MYERS TO PILOT TEAM ON CENTRAL LEAGUE

BY FRANK DUNING New Castle, by winning from Richmond, at the Coliseum last night practically cinches the I. S. L. pennant. While it is still a physical possibility that either Richmond or Muncie might finish first, polo fans who watched New Castle in action last night, are willing enough to coneede that the ifite lrague decoration troes to Paul Jamison's help this year, at least. As ilia schedule now stands, Richmond has six games to play before the c'.cse. New Castle has seven; Muncie, cipn;. Nov Castle to clinch the flag must win ot leat three cf its games. There is little doubt but that New Castle will do it.

Bade Myers, one of the best-known and most successful baseball managers in the minor leagues, was today signed as manager of the Richmond Central league team following a meeting held by the club directors at noon. Myers will go to Columbus, O., tomorrow for the purpose of having a conference with Joe Tinker, manager of the Columbus American association team, to see whether he can secure two or three of Tinker's players for the local club. Myers will leave Columbus or Muskegon. Mich., where he will represent the Richmond club at the schedule meeting to be held in that city Sunday. He will return to Richmond from Muskegon and at once take charge of lining up his team and supervising the construction of the playing field, which will be located, it is generally believed, on the Gilbert field, Main street, directly opposite Glen Miller park.

"I believe the league season will open on May 2." Myers said today. "In that case I will have my players report in Richmond for spring training not later than April 10. I have some mighty good men in prospect and I do not believe I would have much difficulty in signing up a team that will keep Richmond right in the race. I have been in baseball twenty-two years and I have always been able to have my teams np in the running. I have won. incidentally, four Central league pennants." Myers announced that he intended to open negotiations at once for the purchase of "Red" Brubaker from the Muskegon club. Brubaker is well known in Richmond as he was at one time the star of the Earlham college baseball team. "Brubaker was the fastest shortstop in the Central last year and he is going to develop into a great player," Myers 6aid.

Rustlings of the Netting

Fully 3,000 and probably more fans were disgusted at the kid-like actions of the New Castle team. Admitting that the visitors had it on the Quakers in thirty-nine different ways, New Castle might have behaved itself. Billy Duggan, the arch clown of the outfit, reminded one of the little boy just presented with his first suit of store clothes. New Castle's speed, however, is to be commented upon. The visitors were good, hand it to 'em.

Duggan, with all his speed, was forced to finish second to Lou Quigley on the rush line. Before censoring Evans on his peace policy, it should be understood that the Coliseum management has bis (Evans) word to lay off the pugilism. Billy Blount, the Quaker goal tend, was Just a trifle off form, too. Altogether, it was a disastrous evening for the Quakers.

The total value of the radium tested at the United StateB bureau of standards in Washington exceeds 11,000,000.

NEW CASTLE, 5; RICHMOND, 1 "Rad Billy Dupzan." or "The Caveman cf New Castle" are titles suggested for the wild and wooly comedydrama offered by the New Castle and Richmond polo teams and enacted on the Coliseum stage last evening. Dusrran, as the villan, took his part so weil that the Richmond police force had to turn out and furnish him escort lo the Pennsylvania station, where the bad one departed for the land of friends. From the start, "Wicked William" was the center upon which the plot of the action revolved. The carnivorous man eater from old Henry county was thirsting for action and trouble. But for the generosity and kindliness of theh Quaker fan colony Duggan would have located the latter in the shape of an uneven attire of coal tar and chicken feathers. Strong Men Turn Pale. Strong men turn pale and women threaten to faint when they think how near William Duggan's flirtations with the celestial regions approached the borderland of their patience and gooiJ natures. William Duggan certainly is lucky to be alive and whole today. Twice he

made passes at spectators through the net to say nothing of numerous j love taps on Evans' head with his fist : and Blount's chest with a polo club, j As to the came itself, no narration is : necessary. Everybody and his brother j was there. They 6aw Richmond out- j played, and were annoyed by the child- j

The Eagles are now back in a half interest claim on the upper berth of the foursome. It used to be compulsory in England that the dead should be buried in woolen shrouds. This law was introduced in order to encourage the manufacture of woolen cloth within the kingdom.
