RICHMOND HIGH BASICETBALLERS TO PUW FRIDAY Coach Mullins Squad to Journey to Newcastle for Big Game.

Richmond high school basketball squad and a large number of ardent rooters will journey to Newcastle Friday where the Richmond high school five will clash with thj Newcastle five in the second game away from home. Coach Mullins is putting his hopefuls through a steady grind this week in preparation for the Newcastle game. The foul shooting men have been working hard getting the foul line distance down pat so they can cage the ball every time. Basket shooting and passing has also been part of the routine this week along with signaling. Cramer Will Be Back The full squad will be in good shape for the game if the vaccination which some of them have undergone doesn't "take." Cramer, one of this year's mainstays, who was Ineligible at the

last game, will be back in the game

Friday night, at his old position at guard. Coach Mullins' squad has been short for some time but the high school boys who are eligible to play basketball are turning out strong clnce his call for more basketball men, and the prospects are again bright for a strong second team. Eighten boys have turned out for practice thus far and more are expected. There will be about four positions on the first and second teams to be filled, two on the first and two on the second. With a strong second team Coach Mullins expects to build up a better first squad that will be able to compete with teams in the class of Lebanon and Anderson, the two strongest teams in the state.

NEW COURSE ADDED

NEW YORK. Dec. 5. A course in factory inspection has been added to the curriculum of the college of the City of New York, it was announced today. The new course is designed for the man who desires to enter public employment or. already in the service, wishes to prepare for promotion. Demonstrations of accident prevention and safeguarding of health will be given.

Bakbetball Takes Place of Football on Camp Schedule CAMP ZACHARY TAYLOR, Louisville, Dec. 5. Now that football is over the soldiers have turned their interest to basketball, and are organizing 250 teams and in a short time there will be a regular basketball league organized and thirty teams will be in action each night. Besides this leave there will be a representative basketball team organized, made up of college players who have made names for themselves. This team is contemplating a trip through Indiana in a short time, playing all Indiana colleges as well as the strong independent teams.

DILLON GALLS OFF SCRAP WITH GREB

CINCINNATI. Dec. 5. The scheduled ten round bout between Jack Dillon, the Hoosier bearcat, and Harry Greb, of Pittsburgh, before the Queen City Athletic club has been called off,

and Matchmaker Jimmey WIdmeyer

has booked Gus Christie of Indianap

oils, to meet the Pittsburgh boxer, for

a decision. All other boxers have passed up

meeting Greb for a decision and it took Widmeyer some time to find a

man who thinks he can lick Greb, but

Christie is confident that it can be

done.

Great Inducements Offered to Willard

Great inducements are offered Jess Wizard to come out and fight Fred Fulton for the heavyweight championship of the world. " Willard can name his own terms, and he would probably be given 75 per cent of the gate, win or lose. It is said that was what Jack Johnson got when he was champion and went to Havana to meet Willard. Only alter having been assured a fortune, win or lose, did Johnson take a chance on losing his championship crown. A fight between Willard and Fulton ought to net $JOO,000 at lease to Willard, for it means a $150,000 gate and 75 per cent of that is $112,500. A Willard-Fulton go, according to all ring precedent, should easily draw a record-breaking gate.

Frederlce C. Rockford, of Csicago, a rookie at Camp Grant, received $80,000 from his father as a reward for his patriotism when he enlisted in the army.

Johnny Dundee, well and favorably known in the fistic fraternity, some times wears kilts for motion picture purposes. As a Scotchman who tre3 to live up to his name, that is where Johnny gets off. He is not a Presbyterian, he has no liking for the famous beverage that is usualy coupled with soda, he dislikes oatmeal, wouldn't know a bagpipe if he fell over one and never quotes Bobbie Burns or says "hoot,mon." As a matter of fact, Johnny's real name is Joseph Carrora, and he was born in Sharkal, Italy, just twentyfour years ago. The name, Johnny Dundee, was wished on him by his manager, Scotty Montleth, about whose nationality thee, isn't a shadow of doubt Dundee 'ights with true Latin abandon. He rushes, swings, dodges, dances up and down and is never quiet for a second. He began fighting In 1911. but he did not win prominence until 1912. In August of that year he boxed a twelve-round draw with Matt Brock at Cleveland and the following month took on Johnny Kilbane for ten rounds at New York. Kilbane was then champion and had a little the better of the argument, but did not win by any wide margin.

In November, 1912, Dundee made

his first trip to the coast and defeated Frankie Conley in nineteen rounds at Los Angeles. In March of the following year he aain went to California and in April he held Kilbane to a draw in twenty rounds at McGarvey's Vernon arena. After that he went into the lightweight division and was matched with Leach Cross and Ad Wolgast, but the death of Bull Young after a bout with Jess Willard caused the cancellation of the Vernon bouts. Vmpire Bill Dineen of the American league will be crippled in his right hand as a result of a recent hunting accident. One finger was shot off and the rest of the hand was so badly shattered that it will be practically helploss. Dineen used to earn big money with his right paw. He pitched winning ball for the Boston Red Sox when they won the American league penuant back in 1904. He has been um-

Cured His RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors said ray only hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got bold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned, although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, If you write to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 139 D, Marcellus Avenue, Manasquan, N. J. Better cut out this notice and show it to any others who are ruptured you may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture and the worry and danger of en operation. Adv.

piring in the American league for nearly ten years and is highly regarded by Ban Johnson. Max Carey, the Pirates' brilliant center fielder, again has "retired" from baseball. The announced the other day that he had a "fine business opening" in California and had decided to take a chance. Carey "retired" last winter when the Pirates refused to sign him for more than $5,000 in salary. He remained out west until his team had reported for spring practice, when he decided to capitulate. Carey played great ball this year, and probably feels that he is entitled to an increase. Barney Dreyfuss, the. Pirates' owner, says he hopes Carey makes a big success of his new venture, but if he fails he can sign for 1918 at the old figures. It's hard to bluff the little Pittsburgh magnate! Heinie Zimmerman has been unmercifully and perhaps unjustly panned for attempting to overtake Eddie Collins in that memorable sprinting match during the final game of the world's series between the Giants and the White Sox. But Zim doesn't mind it at all. Furthermore, the famous Bronx Dutchman has shown that his heart is in the right place by spending his share of the world's series money in a new home for his mother in New Jersey. Zim Is passing the winter at his residence in New York, attending strictly to business. Since Johnny Tillman paved the way by agreeing to donate five per cent of all ring earnings to the American Red Cross three Philadelphia boxers have follower suit. They are Johnny Mealy. Eddie McAndrews and Joe Welch. If all fighters who get $100 or more for each appearance would adopt this plan it would bring thousands of dollars every month to the Red Cross.

THOUGHTS TO THINK. ABOUT Peace comes from placing all power in God rather than in ourselves; we cannot change a single law of nature, and law that Is love, is good. The vow varies as man loves or hates ; he vows that he will do good or he vows that he will not. Telling others how, will never teach us how to bring blessings or to shun sorrows; the art of making lies in the power of taking the tools in your own hands and doing the work. The Joy of today teaches us how to look for happiness tomorrow; happiness is a habit and possibly Heaven Is, too. There are two sellers and two buyers' in every exchange that is made. Exchanging properties is a convenient way to make transfers of ownership in real estate. When you advertise In cent of the homes in Richmond, the Palladium you reach 9C per-

Rheumatics Are Made Happy Satisfied That "Neutrone Prescription 99" Is All That's Claimed.

This reliable prescription has, since being placed on the hands of the public done more to remove Rheumatic Troubles than all previous remedies combined. It is different from other remedies in that it does not upset the stomach or impair the heart, a condition heretofore thought impossible. It is not a cure-all but a remedy to be taken internally treating Rheumatism as a constitutional disease,' by its general act'on through the blood. The treatment is a most complete combination of rheumatic-reducing elements and is dependable, to produce results from the fact it aims at rheumatism as a disease of the blood. 50c and $1.00 the bottle.

DON'T TRIFLE WITH BLOOD DISORDERS, BUT GET RID OF THEM QUICKLY

Cleanse the System of All Impurities Watch your blood supply closely; be ever on the alert lest some impurity creep in which will make inroads upon your general health. For upon the condition of your blood depends largely whether or not you are to enjoy that robust and splendid vitality to which you are entitled. Some of the most painful and serious ailments are diseases of the blood, which could be avoided by alert and prompt attention. Rheumatism oomes from a tiny germ which gets its foothold when the blood supply is impure and run down. Catarrh is another disease which science has shown is more easily contracted when the blood is in an im

poverished and disordered state. There are numerous other diseases which are due solely to an impure condition of the blood. Can you not see, therefore, the importance of taking a blood purifier, so. as to avoid these diseases? Just give the system a thorough cleansing with S. S. S., that sterling blood remedy, and you will be in position to enjoy the blessings of good health. S. S. S. has been on the market for more than fifty, years and is sold by druggists everywhere.
