DISTRICT TRACK EVENT WILL BE HEUMN CITY Local High School Asked to

Put on Sectional Meet Here May 17. A. L. Trester, permanent secretary of the Indiana Athletic association, Informed Manager Vernon of Richmond high school by letter, Thursday afternoon, that he was well pleased with the way that Richmond had handled the basketball tourney and that he wanted the local high school to accept the staging of the sectional track and field meet for this part of the tate, on May 17. This meet will be a preliminary to the etate meet which will be held on Reid field. Earlham, May 24. As no arrangements seem to have been made by the state board of control concerning a district meet for this section and as Manager Vernon felt that a meet should be stage! to show who should be eligible to represent the schools in the state meet from Richmond high school, negotiations were started with Trester to bring the district meet here. Arrangements will be made to stage the district classic on Reid field one week before the state meet at that place. The date set for the meet will be the same as the I. C. A. L. meet at Franklin college but as Richmond high school officials will have charge Jt will not Interfere with any plans Earlham may have. Manager Vernon expects the contract to be mailed from Trester soon which will definitely settle the matter. As soon as the contract for the district meet Is received special invitations will be sent out to all the schools who competed here in the basketball tourney. As many schools do not place track teams in the field, only about half as many district track and field meets are necessary to handle the schools competing in such events, and so the district meet here covers a much larger scope of territory than did the basketball tourney. Preparing for Workout Although Coach Eckel has not been able to give regular practice work on the field with his track men, he is not losing much time in getting them in readiness for some stiff workouts when the weather does permit outdoor practice. As most of the men signing up for track are in the gym classes, Eckel has arranged his gym work so that it will benefit a prospective track candidate. Thursday night Eckel called for track men to meet at the gymnasium and forty of the eighty men turned out. A number of the candidates were in the orchestra and registered their disapproval of the time of the meeting as it conflicted with the orchestra time to practice. Eckel talked to the men, showing them how to perform the different events to the best advantage. He discussed the fundamental points neceseary to make a good track man, demonstrating the positions that should be followed in perfecting any event. Other meetings of thi3 nature will probably be held until weather conditions permit the real work of the track to start. Eckel plans to take up track practice at Reid Field, Earlham, next week. SMALL TEAM READY FOR SEMI-FINALS In the Garfield basketball tournament at the Garfield Annex the Smalls completed the preliminary tourney Thursday night with the Daisies and Marines and the Lilys and Pirates scheduled to play in the semifinals. Friday night the Large boys' league will play out its schedule and ,-r.o a v fnr tho final cames.

Thursday night the Frenchles were

defeated by the Lilies by a 10 o score. Sauter and Mattox were the viot 0mr fnr the Lilies Avhile Quis

le- made four of the Frenchies six points. Coulter and Ayers made a field each for the winning team. In the second game the Pirates won over the Earlham five 11 to ?. Colvin was the star of the game while Bentlage featured Earlham scoring. Both teams were well matched and put up a close fight. Ten minutes overtime had to be played to decide the winner. In the third game the Daisies had it easy defeating the Aces to the tune of 14 to 0. Kessler was the mainstay of the Daisy scoring machine aided by Unthank. The final game gave the Marines a 12 to 6 victory over the Vampires Good of the Vampires scored all six of his team's points. Alexanders and Babylon made the markers for the Marines. Friday night the following teams meet In the big boys' league, the Sammies vs. Butler, the Indians vs. Stutz, the Reds vs. Yale, and the Starrs vs. Pershing team. The Pershing quintet is heralded as the winner of the large boys' tourney while the Lilies and Daisies will run a close race for the Smalls tourney. The winner of each tourney will play a final game some time next week, probably Tuesday or Wednesday. "Blue blood" appears to mean the blood of a fair skinned race as it strikes the eyes of a dark spinned people; in its Spanish form, sangre azul, it sems to have been first used to describe the blue veins on the fair nkin of the foreign northern aristocratic classes of Spain, says Havelock Ellis, writing in the Anglo-Italian

RANDOM C

PORTNOTK?

Eugene J. GianninI, for many years rowing coach and director of athletics at the New York Athletic club, was appointed recently to coach the Columbia University varsity and freshman crews for the 1919 season. Giannini was coach of the New York Athletic club crews and physical director of the club for twentyfive years. He began his rowing career under Bob Cook in 1887, learned the principles of good rowing at that time and has stuck to them ever since with marked success. One of his crews, made up of business men, held the record of the Philadelphia Henley course, which has been rowed over by all the colleg crews. Giannini's rowing career began in 1887, when he rowed No. 6 in the Dauntless Boat club crew which won the senior eight-oared race in the Harlem degatta. In 1888 he joined the New York Athletic club and stroked the eight-oared crew which won the Harlem regatta in the fall of that year. After that he stroked the four which was first in the Downing race in the People's regatta at Philadelphia. He also rowed No. 6 in the winning eight in the race for the Sharpless cup and the People's regatta. He was captain and rowed No. 6 In the tightoared boats which won the national championship in 1891 and 1892. He coached these crews, which were the famous "chippie" crews of the New York A. C. Both in single and double sculls Giannini made a splendid record, and in rowing of all kinds had to his credit between thirty and forty victories when he retired from competition to accept the position as rowing coach and athletic director of the club in 1893. a a a rnach and trainer, both on land

and water, Giannini was a success from the beginning. He has coached thirteen victorious crews in the national regattas of the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen. These winning crews have included five senior eight-oared shells. He developed

sixteen novice eight-oarea comDina-

tions of which twelve have won junior crews have won as many as six races in one regatta. The beneficial effect of military training on the young men of the U. S. A. is apparent in the condition of the big and minor league ball players now working out around the country in preparation for the 1919 season. Men who, in days gone by, showed up at the training camps with several extra pounds of flesh hanging flabbily, but tenaciously to their bones, reported thi3 season from army and navy camps in the pink of condition.

Consequently this spring they can center their activities on tuning up their arms and batting eyes. Veteran players veterans in years of service who found it hard to hold their weight down from spring to spring, put themselves back in their old-time physical form while training to fight or fighting for Uncle Sam. Of course some instances have bobbed up to date which would indicate that the military training has temporarily thrown a player oft his pitching or batting form because it has developed his muscles along different lines, but not a manager has said that any player will be unable to get back into his old-time stride in the few weeks' training.

ROLLER POLO TEAM WILL BE ORGANIZED WITH LOCAL PLAYERS

As a forerunner of the eastern polo teams which will return to Richmond soon, "Tacks" Bradfleld, manager of the Coliseum and Joe Bulla have organized two roller polo teams to meet at the Coliseum in their first game, Wednesday, April 9. All the men in these teams are local men but have had experience in playing the roller game. Some of the men on the two teams were formerly veterans of the Indiana polo league and played years ago on the Coliseum floor, when Muncie, Elwood and Newcastle had teams in the field. The team chosen by Bradfleld and Bulla will meet a team organized by Carl Reid. Bradfield's lineup will be as follows: Bradfleld, first rush; Bulla, second rush; Geer, center; Williams, halfback and Mitchell, goal tender. Reid's team will line up as follows: Reid, firsh rush, Shellenberger; second rush, Long; center. Minor, halfback; and Hawekotte, goal tender. Richmond Polo bugs have been debating over the probability of some of the real old sport being exhibited this year for some time, and it is due to this fact that Bradfield is placing a local team in the field to aid in a grand revival of the roller sport. Within a week, the eastern players are expected to be coming home and league polo of the highest caliber will be in line for Richmond and Muncie but up to that time Bradfield will feel out the fans as to whether they really want the game and will lend their support. After the eastern men get here, Bradfield and Reid plan to play curtain raisers to the big games. At least two other games will be played before the opening of the league players season.

MOTLEY HIGH POINT MAN AT "Y" CONTEST

Ralph Motley, taking four intermediate records on the Y. M. C. A. floor, was-' Richmond association's high point man in the hexathlon athletic meet which closed Thursday evening. All the records made were sent in to the international committee at New York Thursday evening. All the boys in the junior and intermediate classes of the Y. M. C. A. were eligible. Boys who participated did not know what events they would compete in until called upon to enter the competition for some event. No special practice was allowed any participant. The boys who showed up well in the contest besides Motley were Al Smith, Homer Meyers and "Red" Moss. Motley took the following events: Running high jump, four feet eight inches; fence vault, five feet

I six inches; standing broad jump, eight

feet two inches; 88 yard dash, 12 2-o seconds; 60 yard dash, 8 2-5 seconds, and the 220 yard dash, 2S 2-5 seconds.

AUTOMOBILE STRUCK BY LOCOMOTIVE The Ford Sedan belonging to Harry Ewbank, of the grocery firm of Ewbank and Sons, was badly damaged last evening when a C. and O. locomotive backing from the north at the North D street crossing collided with it. Miss Alice Ewbank, who was driving the car was uninjured. Miss Ewbank said today that she looked both directions before crossing the tracks, but did not see the approaching engine because there was only one small light at the rear of the locomotive. Theatrical organizations have pledged themselves to fill all vacancies whenever possible by men and women who have served their country in the Army, Navy, Marine Corp3 or Red Cross work.

Miss Julia O'Connor of Boston has been appointed by Postmaster Burleson to serve on a committee to investigate conditions which concern women telephone operators.

If you wake up with a bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; if what you eat sours and forms gas and acid in stomach, or you are bilious, constipated, nervous, sallow and can't get feeling just right, begin inside bathing. Drink before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This will flush the poisons and toxins from tho stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the entire alimentary tract. Do your inside bathing immediately upon arising In the morning to wash out of the system all the previous day's poisonous waste, gases and sour bile before putting more food into the stomach. To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body impurities, get from your pharmacist a quarter pound of limestone phosphate which is inexpensive and almost tasteless, except for a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant.

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE Xolhlne Like Plain Illtro-Fhonpbnte to Put on l-'lrm. Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, Visor and rrve Koree. Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which are continually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bitrophosphate. which is inexpensive and is sold by Conkey Drug Company In Richmond and most all druggists under a

guarantee of satisfaction or money g rn. nT. Unx nf ruf flowers back. By feeding the nerves directly B rOSe Ofa DOXOl LUUiOweib

and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food rlements, bitro-phosphate quickly produces a welcome transformation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing. This increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in tho health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, soon disappear, dull eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health.
