Now that the-heavyweight class is all cluttered up with fighters of much J bulk and brawn and little else one j hears lease frequently old Bob Fitz-i Simmons' battlecry, "The bigger they I

and in the first half Liberty only held a one point lead over Eaton. The Liberty team is getting some publicity for its apparently almost perfect record. The team claims the distinction of winning ton games out of cloven, its only defeat being by Xenia, Ohio, on the latter team's floor, and at a time when the Liberty team was weakened by the illness of some of its members. ' Liberty has scored 4S8 points to its opponents' ISO. In the game Friday night at Eaton

not have as much trouble with big Jeff
as many men nearer his size. When Joe went twenty rounds to a draw with Jeffries it was the latter's toughness rather than his bulk that saved him from a kayo at the hands of his smaller opponent. Though it was early in Jack Johnson's career and when he knew little of the game's science that Joe Choyn
ski put him down tor the count yet the smoke was absurdly easy for the smaller man in spite of his great advantage in brute strength and size. When Jack Johnson beat Tommy Burns, a smaller man. for the heavyweight title, it was clearly because he had greatly improved in the science of boxing and beat Burns through his cleverness alone. When Tommy Burns, who was in truth nothing more than a rather overgrown middleweight fcund himself facing a man he could surpass in speed he had little trouble in winning whatever his opponent's size. Boh Fitzsimmons, when at his best
and holding both the middleweight and heavyweight Mtles. found little to worry him in the size of his larger opponents. Fitz firmly believed that
anything else and with the exception
of his battles with Jeffries his whole record will show lhat he was right. Jim Corbett's performances are more arguments in favor of the idea that speed and skill will beat bulk every time. Though Jeffries won at the end of tweuty-four rounds, the fight showed well enough that his bulk and size put him at the greatest disadvantage and only his woudeiful toughness let him last long enough to get over the
one punch he hoped to land. Had Corbett had a small part of the toughness of his opponent th-3 bigger man would never have won with the one blow he landed. Eddie McGcorty, the middleweight, who returned recently from a three years', stay in Australia to his home in Oshkosh, declares that he plans to fight once more in the American ring. McGoorty is not in the best of shape, but when he recovers his strength he plans to tear into the heavyweight- division. "I may not be good enough to get far with the men of my own

EARLHAM FIVE MEETS NORMAL QUINTET FRIDAY

j a bit sad now to find that it is hard j sity twirler who pitched great ball jto please the fans whatever one's ef-! for the Rochester club in the Interj forts.

An Indianapolis raper, speaking of
the game, reasons along this line: "Franklin defeated the Tenth. infantry team and the soldiers won from Butler. Franklin college was supposed to be strong but the result of the game between Earlham aud Franklin was p bis surprise to the basketball fans and proves that either Franklin is not strong or the Quakers have a powcrful basketball machine." It only remains for the Whito and Yellow to win a few more games and its growing basketball reputation is made. Practice was held Monday without the assistance of Coach Mowe. However, he is expected to return to school Hoon. All men turned out for tbe basketball grind and put through a strenuous practice. Before taking the tooth pullers at Indianapolis Saturday night the Earlhain basketbull team will play the State Normal at he Coliseum Friday night which will fclve the team a good test of endurance. State Normal has a fairly strong team although it is not thought to be as strong a3 the Franklin five.
Quite a few interleague games will be played in the south this spring while the teams are on the way home from the training camps. The Yanks are booked to play the Boston Braves and the Giants will meet the Cleveland Indians. The Brooklyn Robin3 will play tbe Red Sox and the Cincinnati Reds will play Detroit. The Phillies and Senators are likely to engage. Thi3 takes in everyone except the Cubs and White Sox, who seem to have disregarded the idea. McUraw. of the Giants thinks he is
as a large and powerful youth, with
everything in the world to make a great pitcher. Added to which he bears a remarkable resemblance to Christy Mathewson. Andy Coakly, the Columbia coach who brought Smith out, says that he will be a dingwhizzer In the National league this season.
All the punch was not taken out of the Athletics in the latest deal. As long as Ping Bodie is a member of the team there will be some color to the outfit, likewis3 a punch.

A meeting of the state retail grocers will be held in Indianapolis next Wednesday. Elmer Eggemeyer was appointed by the Wayne county grocers association to represent the Wayne county association. H.

WEATHER PREVENTS FARMERS MARKETING
NEW PARIS, O., Jan. 22. Farmers of this community are losing money because of weather conditions which have held up the shipping of fat hogs. About 2,000 hogs have been contracted for by buyers, but cannot be delivered, and consequently are being fed $1.50 a bushel corn. James Sharkey, income tax official, of Dayton, was in New Paris Thursday, inctrusting taxpayers whose incomes are $2,000 or over per year. Mrs. Warren L. Bunger has received a cablegram from her soldier-minister-husband that he has arrived safely "somewhere in France." Rev. Bunger was given leave of absence by bis influential congregation in Minneapolis, Minn., to do Y. M. C. A. work in France. The Bungers also have a son who is a lieutenant in Uncle Sam's service. Mrs. Bunger is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Francis Pence during the absence of her husband and son. j Jefferson Township Firsts defeated I

The Cubs are said to be after Beals Becker, who made such a fine record last season in the American association. Becker is another slugging outfielder who probably could break up mere ball frames in a month than some major leaguers do in a season. Th opinion is general that Jack Hendricks is due for a long and successful carreer as a major league man user. Hendricks is one of the smart-t-ut man in baseball and 'sure to have all the St. Loui3 fans pulling for his succeess. ,
