RICHMOND HIGH PLAYERS LOOKED GOOD IN DEFEAT Former State Champions Scored Over Local Basket Shooters by 30 to 1 1 Count.

Playing the highest class basketball game played this season on the Coliseum floor. Richmond high school fire was defeated by the Lebanon high tea m, Wednesday night by the score of 30-11. Coach Mullin's hopefuls played a clean, peppy game showing great improvement over any former playing this year. Although the team was handicapped by the quitting of Sheldon and ineligibility of Cramer, Stegman and Harding who played their positions at guard, held the Lebanon forwards scoreless, and if the Richmond boys could have come closer to the hoop when making free throws, the results might have been different. The Lebanon men not being used to playing a technical game fouled persistently, making in all 21 fouls, 15 technicals and 6 personals. Van Alien Fight Hard . , . . Van Allen, the plucky little forward, fought hard for shots a the basket, but the god of chance was not in his favor. Simmons made the majority of points but all but one were free throws. Like Van Allen he was un

able to locate the basket. - ' The Lebanon men with more experience-behind them did not show much hetter form than Coach Mullins men. Three of their men "were regulars on championship teams of last year and another was a substitute. , The White-Adams combination both all state stars did the shooting for Lebanon. White making 22 of the points while -Adams the lanky center, made the other eight. During the second half of the game White scored a fiftld goal by shooting the ball directly back over his head. Taken a.a whole the game was the fastest played on the floor with neither tram passing the bal! any length of time. - Friday, Dec. 7," Coach Mullin's quintet will journey to Newcastle to reoeat the results of last Friday's game by winning over the Rose City five. .

EARLHAM "Y M" GAME MOVED TO

"Y" GYMNASIUM Collegians Practicing Steadily for First Clash of the Season. Owing to conflicting dates the Earlham Y. M. C. A. basketball game Saturday night will not be played at the Coliseum but will be at the "Y" in

stead. This game is the first game to be played by either team - and promises to be a fast game from the beginning to the end. The Earlham prospective basketball men have been practising every evening this week. The men are showing up so well and the competition is so keen that Coach Lews will find great difficulty in picking the squad to represent the school. Pitts has not been able to practise yet on account of his injured arm but it is thought he will b.e in the games soon. Brawn, Jessup, Pontius and Meeks are showing good form in practise. Probable Lineup of "Y" The nrobable lineun of the "Y" team

will be a follows: Parker center, C. jr absorption . by the Mohammedans.

It is strange, but it Is true, that the best heavyweights Britain has turned out in the last half century have all been htnall men, weighing little if any over the middleweight limit. England hnsn t had a really good big man since the days of Bill Perry, the Tipton

American and cleaned up Tom Allen and Joe Ccburn. Whn the bullet of an assassin plowed through the broad back of Stanley Ketchel the tragedy left a

void in the championship of the mid-

Slasher, away back in the '50s, and he j die weight division of pugilism that

satisfactorily filled

wasn't any wonder. When it comes to pocket edition heavyweights, however, John Bull has nothing to be ashamed of. The big fellows of America have time and again fallen before the smaller men of the "tight little isle." One of the best of these giant killers was Charley Mitchell, who was born in Birmingham, England, fifty-six years ago, November 24, 1S61. Mitchell was only five feet nine and weighed in his fight clothes from 155 to 165 pounds, yet he tackled all comers, regardless of size.

When he was in his prime he fought John L. Sullivan 39 rounds to a draw at Chantilly, France and, in the opinion of many spectators, be had the best of the argument with the Boston gladiator. Some years later Mitchell was easily whipped by Jim Corbett at Jacksonville, out that was after the Birmingham tusn had lost much of his former vigor and cleverness through dlsfcipation. Tom Sayers, another English middleweight, standing five feet right and a half Inches and weighing 150 pounds, fought his way to the top of the heavyweight ladder and engaged in a memorable drawn-battle with tbe giant John C. Heenan, the American champion. Jem Mace was still another little English man who conquered the biggest and brawniest of American scrapvers. Jem, who was part ftypsy. wh'rped big Sam Hirst, tbe Staleybridge Infant, and other big men of his own country, and then came to

Since the untimely death of the wonderful Wolverine many title pretenders have come and gone. Some of them were accepted as legitimate champions and they reigned for a brief spell, but it was not until the brilliant Les Darcy flashed across the pugilistic horizon that ring followers got ready to admit a worthy successor to the peerless Ketchel had come Into being.
