The garlham basketball a went dqwn in defeat before the Wabash baiketbHr to the tune of ?H9? WW flay night at Crawfordsrille. from the first few minutes of play Earlhain was lost to the Little Qlnts as the Quakers were not used to the dirt floor. Dribbling could not be done on the dirt flpor and the men expecting to slide on the floor would stick and thus lose their balance. The first half was a walkaway ar the Wabash five, the team leading the scoring by 16-6. Coach Townsend of the Wbash five admitted that the floor was a drawback for any team not used tq it, as the fast Indiana basket Ehpotera of the Big Ten conference were defeated by the Wabash five on the same floor. In the second half the Quakers commenced to get the hang of the floor and their work quickened,. The game was already lost. . The second half ended. 29-18 in fa vor of Wabash. Earlbam plays its next and last I. C. A. L. game at Indianapolis Saturday night when it meets the Butler five. Coach Mowe said that he would be willing to meet the Wabash five on any neutral floor and play the deciding game for the I. C. A- I bunting, if the records of both teams remained the same.

Sullivan, recalls an incident that occurred in Detroit some fifteen years ago, showing the wonderful lung power of the noted fighter. John L.. while seated at a table In a hotel grill, with ome newspapermen and telegraphers, called for a high tumbler, such as was used in those times in serving liberal portions of beer. Dropping a twenty-five cent piece into the "schooner" 8ullivan said: "Boys, 1 will now do something that no other man in the world can do." Inhaling a deep breath and then exhaling quickly into the glass, Sullivan blew the coin a foot into the air. A string of genuine wampum beads was found recently in a gravel pit on the McCarthy farm, near Fox Lake, Wis. The beVds are a reddish gray and about one inch in thickness.

Perhaps if Fred Fulton looked more like a fighter in the face he irquid be a larger hit with the aver-: age ring fan., But as it Is FuUpn, somehow never gats a real hearty cheer in spite of the fact that he is every inch a champion in several respects. For example, he can box like a world-beater and he can bit like a fool, go, fa? 8 the most customary aeoefiaplishBaeBts ga Fulton ia well equipped. But the fact (hat he doesn't look a u m t HMtar fcw done him more harm than anything else. He has a long, thin neck, s fragile chin and quite indefinite and harmless features- .This la enough to persuade many thai he hasn't the fighter's heart and that b never take a beating. Others are convinced, that Fulton is a quitter when placed in 4 tight situation.' Seme of this, opinion may be. warranted but quite a bit of H is mere speculation. Fulton, bag knocked out every heavyweight of any importance he has met and this record should give him a greater reputation for fighting ability than he seems to have, The ring game has seen milk Ions of fighters with the most ferocious faces who were as harmless as young cats compared to Fulton. If Fred had a typical fighting face and a more radiant personality he would be one of the mos popular fighters in some years. Jack Derapsey shows promise of becoming a much more popular heavy: weight than Fulton mostly because he, looks like the real thing. His rise to prominent has been remarkably rapid and he will probably go. quite a. bit further. He looks the part of the typical fighting man, He has the size and the speed and, th furious spirit ef aggression that makes any fighter a hit. His long, powerful arms rounded shoulders Indicate unusual hitting abil, ity and his recent bouts have showa that he can punch. Dempsey is not as tall as Fulton and he hasn't the reach, but when the two meet it will be one of the most interesting f fairs the heavyweight class has seen in

So far as natural ability goes Fulton should be able to outpoint Dempsey at least, but the Salt Lake lad is a terrific body puncher and he may be able tq make Fulton quit, Ted Jourdan is the latest memher pf the White Sox to affix his sign!, ture to a Chicago contract. Jourdan will fig th utility fela again M fc has no chance tq break into the in; field. According to recent figures more than 275 ball players are now fighting the kaiser. Of this num? ber 112 are major leaguers. Lqw Blue, first baseman of the Martinsburg club of the Blue Ridge league last season, has signed a contract with the Detroit Tigers. The report that Christy Mathewson planned to add Jimmy Lavender to his Cincinnati pitching staff seems to have been a false alarm. Matty apparently is doing nothing to keep Jimmy from the minors.
Otto Knaube, the farmer Philly star, will act as a scout for the Cubs next summer.
Hack Spencer of the Tigers is said to be angling for a, berth as manager of an independent club in California.. He has returned his contract unsigned to the Detroit club.

The super-hard center provides all the strength, stability and long life of the socalled "hard plate," but without the sacrifice of "pep" and power characteristic of all "hard plate" batteries.
