HIGH TRACK MEN

TO COMPETE IN DISTRICT MEET Locals to Enter Against Nine Track Teams at Conners- - ville Saturday. Richmond will be one of nine High school track teams enterlngr the district High school meet at Connersville next Saturday. Nine district meets will be held at different points Saturday, preliminary to the state Mentnat Earlham college, Saturday. The total .number of High schools in the state (entering track teams in the state meet are seventy-nine, making the number of participants on May 17 total over 500 High Bchool track men. Logansport, Kendalvilie and Indianapolis have also been se lected by the Indiana High School Athletic association as centers for district track meets. Schools which will compete at Connersville next Saturday are Richmond. Martinsville, Connersville, Rushville, Liberty, Greenwood, Shelbyville, Cambridge City and Newcastle. The Connersville High school authorities will have charge of the track events, making arrangements for the track contestants and rooters that will invade the city on that day. One hundred and sixteen track men have been enrtered from the nine High schools. Get Final Workout Coach Eckel will give the Red and White track men their final workouts this week for the district meet and will go to Connersville prepared to give the down-state lads the best Richmond has. The local team has never developed any exceptional talent In track events but has consistently allround second and third place men who can be counted on and if the first places are divided sufficiently, Rich mond wm come back winner of the district meet and ready to put up some strong competition in the state meet the following Saturday. Coach Eckel has a number of possibilities in the regular track men that -an put up some keen competition for first place and with the calibre teams that will contend for honors in tho district meet the local team stands an excellent show to annex some first places that will aid materially in winning the classic. Emslle, Motley, Eversman, Dollins, are all good men and look good for first placers, while the other members of the team may develop surprisingly this week and do better than second and third. Prospects for a bright track season for the Richmond team at the first of the season were anything but brilliant, but with the showing the locals made at Indianapolis and Cincinnati, followers of the thinly clads have bejran to predict some good work from their logical favorites. . Coach Eckel wil lnot choose the track team until after he has given all the men competing a fair trial to chow what they can do in the next - few days of practice. , ' 1 -" " ARMY WRESTLERS TO MEET HERE TONIGHT Richmond sport fans will be given their first opportunity to Bee some clever wrestling matches tonight when "ioung Chanos and Russell Zook of Dublin, meet at the Coliseum.

James Chanos who Is promoting his own match annoumyiiJhat if he was successful in staging thlSe matches he would bring some better men to Richmond and wrestle preliminary matches himself for a time. This i tic ill ci. ill a lvu tuai iiaiiuo uao cu . . .u. nuwcvti, iuiuiua is -uiiuutriiL mai lie can at least drop Zook two out of the three times. Zook has proved himself a good wrestler, winning some matches in army camps and throwing Kid Rose of Connersville. Among the big wrestlers that Chanos claims he can bring to Richmond he tiames Joe Stetcher. It is also the plan of Chanos to bring some good first class white boxers to Richmond if his present performance meets with the approval of the fans. His sport programs will include both boxing and wrestling. The match Wednesday night will be for the best two out of three falls and all three will be catch-as-catch-can.

THE GREATEST HAND There were songs that Annie liked to write on her typewriter. MOh, eay, does the Star-Spangled Banner yet wave o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?" Annie loved that adjective "star-spangled." It made her think of vast spaces that glittered with golden opportunities; of coolness and cleanness and peace; of beautiful fairies and angels didn't they always have a glided star at the end of a wand? " land of the free"! What a glorious feeling that gave you'.- It puzzled Annie a little, though. Free from what? She asked her father, and he said it meant free from oppression ; that everybody had a chance to have and to be whatever they wanted; that there was no ruler who had power over people's lives and property, like in some countries; and that even the poor were allowed to say, who should be president and who should help make the laws and what not. " and the home of the brave." Annie knew about that without having to ask. It meant people like her father, who went to work even when he was bo sick with the rheumatism he could hardly get along. And like Aunt Moggie who wasn't afraid of thunder and lightning or of the v-aves at the seashore when they went in bathing. And like the policeman who stopped runaways and chased burglars And the firemen around the corner who dashed out anytime, day or night, in that flying clanging, th: Ming en gine, and went straight into burning houses and saved - people! What a wonderful thing to live in a country where everyone was brave. "Land of the free and the home of the brave." Annie adored the line. She wrote it on the typewriter oftener than, any other. "Columbia, the gem of the ocean, the home of the brave and the free " There it was again! "The shrine of each-patriot's devotion; the world offers homage to thee!" This song was almost as thrilling as the other. Annie got little shivers down her back every time she shrilled out-with the rest of the class in school, where the big crossed flags were draped above the platform in the assembly room. Annie always glanced over to where whelming defeat of the severest kind for the Earlham team, but the more superior brand of hurling put over by Templeton and consistent work of the fielders held down the score. Although Stewart and Kramer had the Earlham team guessing most of the time, the Quakers manased to get in three hits. Errors and bunching hits brought Miami's total score to six runs during the game. Tietz and Osbourne both errored repeatedly at critical timeB. Templeton tried to make the score more even ard secured a hit but the next man placed the ball In a hole, and the Quakers were un able to bring in a single run. The score: R. H. E. Miami ......... 011 220 00 6 8 1 Earlham ...... 000 000 0000 2 5 Batteries Miami, Stewart arid Kramer, and Crawford. Earlham Templetonand Raiford.- Umpire Elmer Schneider. . '

Rosie Rothberg sat, and Frieda Schnabel and other girls who had been born in foreign countries. Annie had a distinct feeling of patronage. This country was hers at first hand. It belonged to her Just naturally. Those other girls had to come over to It and ask to be let In. She felt it gave her immense prestige and advantage. " -the world offers homage to thee!" When Annie asked the teacher what homage meant, she- said, "Go look in the dictionary." It meant, Annie found, "respect exhibited by outward action," "reverential regard or worship," "deference, obeisance." She wondered if Rosie and Frieda and the rest realized all that, and were appreciative enough. She asked Rosie about It (To be continued.)
