EARLHAM PLAYS FINAL I. C. A. L. BASKET GAME Quakers Meet Butler Quintet on Coliseum Floor Monday Night. The Earlham basketball aggregation lines up for the last I. C. A. L. basketball contest here Monday night when It meets the Butler five on th Coliseum floor. The Earlfcara basketball- shooters are in excellent shape and anticipate an easy game with the Butler five. The Butlerltes have shown some improvement In the last few weeks and in the last game with Franklin held that team tc 23-16 score. The Earlbara men have passed through 6omeof tho hardest fights this year, winning more games than any other T. C. A. L. basketball team and it is thought the team has the I. C. A. L. bunting cinchtd. The Earlham lineup which probably will meet the Butler team is. Pontius and Jessup, forwards; Edwards, center; and Johnson and Meeks, guards. Coach Mowe has been putting his men through a steady grind and feels that the team never was in better shape. The new plays are working well and Earlham basketballers are well prepared for a fast game of basketball.

The news is abroad that an effort is being made by "certain parties" to form a boxing syndicate and close in on all championship talent. The wrestling game has lost favor through the politics in it that have brought most all of the mat champs under one manager and such a scheme is hardly likely to benefit boxing. The rumor is that the conspirators are specializing in the bantamweight and heavyweight class at present and one or two scribes have come rigjit out and said that Pal Moore and Joe Bunnan, bantam title contenders, have been grabbed away from their proper managers and that it looks like Jack Dempsey will be picked up by the "trust." It seems the "trust" had banked on Carl Morris for a while as the best bet against Wiljard, but since Dempsey tipped Morris over the boy from the coast is the favorite. If the "trust" starts boosting Dempsey for the heavy crown he ought to have an excellent chance to get at Willard. However this trust idea should be shooed out of the fight game before it gets too well establishedIn order to meet the war conditions the Eastern league may reduce the player limit to thirteen men. During the past several weeks the fans of Cleveland have been treated to baseball on ice. A team made up of several major league players and the rest from the minors has afforded entertainment for the idle natives. The players have had a team of star skaters for their opponents. While none of the skaters had ever attained any prominence to speak of on the ball field, they know a little too much about skating for the professionals. In the first game the professional players were badly beaten, but in the second game they were defeated by a one-run margin. Among the major league ball players who took part in these games were Paskert of the Cubs and Wambsganss of the Indians.

In spite of much agitation for reforms, the major league magnates, during their recent deliberations, forgot

all about the playing rules. Barney Dreyfuss, who wanted to have the spitball abolished, didn't get a hearing. Other progressive club owners, who believed that there should be more batting, found themselves sidetracked. Managers who had some novel ideas were left to discuss the rules among themselves. So baseball this year will be played on the usual lines. While the Tigers were playing the White Sox last season Ty Cobb attempted to steal nine times and got away with eight. Ray Schalk, the best catcher in the American league, was behind the bat, but could not head off Ty.

army Jraft, but that he will pay big monerifor new men to fill their places.

Joe Judge, the Senators' first sacker, is in Washington, where he will undergo an operation on his- ankle, which was broken in Detroit last season.

Joe Tinker of the Clumbus club has signed an amateur pitcher named Thornton. The twirler made a good record while a semi-pro in Columbus last summer. One of Hughey Jennings' recruits named Cobb-r-not the famous Ty is in the service of Uncle Sam. In all, the Tigers have lost twelve men to Uncle Sam. Wambsganss, the Indians infielder, has been placed in Class 1 of the selective draft. The White Sox are not without their holdouts. Dave Danforth, the southpaw, has sent his unsigned contract back to owner Comiskey. The pitcher has been given a salary raise, but says that it is not the substantial one which had been promised him.

William Murray, long identified with the national game, has been signed, to scout for the Boston Red Sox. Murray once played ball for the Providence club. Later he became the manager of the Phillies. He handled the Jersey City team for awhile and then was engaged to scout for the Pirates. He left Barney Dreyfus in 1915 to accept the business management of the Newark Feds. Murray is an expert judge of playing material and doubtless will secure some valuable youngsters for the former world champions.

The Detroit club has purchased the release of Pitcher Lefty George from the Columbus club recently. George won nineteen games and lost fourteen in the American association last year.

CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Feb. 23. The DePauw track squad defeated the Wabash cinder path team, 4S to 38, in a closely contested indoor dual track meet which was staged in the Wabash College gymnasium here Saturday night. DePauw proved to be the winner when the thinly clad Methodists won the relay race. Had the losing squad taken this event the score would have been 43-all. Jones of DePauw was the high point

man of the meet. He won three firsts, which netted him a total of 15 points. Each squad took four firsts with one first tied. These two teams will meet again later in the season in an outdoor meet. Summary follows: Mile Run Sims (W.), first; Proud (D.), second; Meyers (W.), third. Time, 4:48 4-5. 50-Yard High Hudles Jones (D.), first; Schoptaugh (D.), second; Meyers (W.), third. Time, :06 4-5.

DePauw Admits Its Five is Champ Team The DePauw Dally has it all figured out where the Methodist basketball team is champion of the West. Listen to this arrangement of the dope from the DePauw Daily: "Speaking of dope, let's use it and get our just deserts. DePauw ranks above the Big Ten Conference in basketball this year, and thus leads the west. You don't helieve It, eh? Well, listen: DePauw beat Wabash 19-16, Wabash beat Indiana 25-18, Indiana beat Iowa 29-25, Iowa beat Purdue, 2218, Purdue beat Iillinois 26-23. Illinois beat Northwestern 28-22, and Northwestern holds first place in the Big Ten with three games won and one lost. Therefore!

THEY WILL HAVE TO LEAVE HAPPY FAMILY IF CALLED TO THE COLORS

Latest Picture of Ty Cobb and his family. Although he is not likely to march away with the next draft, Ty Cobb may be listed in an early call to the army camps. Though Cobb is married with a large and happy family as you can see in the photograph he Is well fixed and his little brood is well provided for, so that he can hardly claim dependants. In another year Ty may be hurling hand grenades instead of outfield flies.

WASHINGTON To win the hand of Vera Sabouroff (Mme. Sonia Markova) daughter of Count Alexis Sabouroff, attached to the Russian Embassy in Washington, Baron Eugene Drako, (Eric Mayne) administers a chemical to Jim Harding, (David Harbin) Vera's sweetheart and has him put aboard a schooner bound for China. The chemical destroys Jim's initiative and nothing will help him but an operation or a severe blow on the head. The Baron forges a letter, signing Jim's name In it Vera is told that Jim loves another and intends to die. Vera does some clever detective work, finds the chemical, chloroforms the Baron, tells him she has administered the chemical to him, and learns where Jim is. A swift motor boat overhauls the schooner. The captain had thrown Jim overboard, but Jim swims ashore and in the fight that follows to get him be fails to recognize Vera Jim is struck a severe blow on the head.

This brings him back to himself and Vera. At the Washington today and Tuesday. MURRETTE A most unusual and interesting situ-

AN HONEST OLD REMEDY IS THE FAMOUS S. S. S.

S. S. S. Is a purely vegetable remedy, being made from the roots and herbs of the forest, by a formula handed down by the Indians, who knew nothing of drugs or chemicals. It is without question the most thorough blood purifier known, cleansing the blood of all traces of impurity, at the i: - 3 j : n . r- a

It has been sold by drug stores for more than fifty years.

Many a Gray-Haired Druggist First Sold It When a Boy. k A recent Setter contained Oils significant paragraph: "Finally I wrote to my brother, who was, in the drug business for over twenty years,' and he wrote back and said that he had sold thousands of dollars worth of S. S. S., and to try that." We do not know of a more sincere tribute that could be paid to any medicine. Certainly it is the strongest possible proof of the merit of S. S.
