INTENSIVE PRACTICE IS STARTED BY MOWE FOR AN TIOCHI CONTEST With the first game ol the season irawing near Coach Mowe was forced to cut his basketball squad in half at the practice Tuesday evening in the

Earlham gymnasium. One bunch will !

be under the direction of Mowe and the other under fliggins. The cut in the squad was necessary because of the game with Antioch college of Ohio on the Coliseum floor Friday night. Dec. 10. Material is abundant for an extraordinary quintet to represent the Quakers through the coming season and Coach Mowe is anxious to give his men some hard scrimmages before their opening game. The first squad that will work under the direction of Mowe is composed of 2:1 men, all of them former high school

or college players who look good fori

basketball jobs. The pace that will bo set in the next few days will make this bunch grow smaller until a squad of about 15 men will continue throughnut the season. Expect Even Game Antioch" college has been holding net practice for the past month and will come to Richmond prepared to take a fall out of the locals. They ore touted as having the best team in their history and with the short practice that the Quakers will have had an even game is expected. Depauw and Earlham will mix in two contests this season, according to an announcement made by Mowe Wednesday. Wabash also will appear here. These two teams always put up some of the best basketball that coi.ie sto the Coliseum and local followers look forward to these teams with great interest. Advance dope on the Earlham lineup would put the men who composed last year's team on the floor for the open ing game. Captain Lawlrr and Hall probably will work at the forward positions. These two men have paired together for several seasons both in college and high school. Carey is out for the pivoi job and probably will hold the place. His playing should ho better this season than last as he was handicapped last year by an injury received in football Russ Hadloy is making a strong bid for thin job. He was injured at the opening of last season and kept from playing. Johnson on Job Ray Johnson will be in his old position at the back guard. He has held down this part of the floor for the past three seasons and has made a name for himself all over the state for his ability to keep the opposing forwards away from under the basket. The floor guard position is an open one and sevrr.il men are working to land this coveted place. Bob Hinshaw. Beck and Thomas probably will s'ago a bitter battle to land the place.

(By Associated Pros?) "' TOLEDO, O., Dec. 1. Negotiations wore opened between Jack Kearns. manager of Jack Dempsey. world's champion heavyweight pugilist, and .d Thatcher, Toledo promoter today with a view to staging the proposed Pempsey-Carpentier match in Toledo. Thacher received a telegram from Kearns in New York city, asking the niomntnr "to look over the ground bore and report to him by telephone." The men were expected to confer la'er in the day. According o Kearns it doesn't look probable that the bout can be staged in New York and that there does not eni to be a logical location elsewhere

a' present. Thacher was Tex Packard's assistant in promoting the Willard-Pempsey rout here a year ago last July, when i'empsey won his title. Thacher said today that he would ,-o before the commission for a permit for a decision bout if he can make "a satisfactory deal with Kearns." Cambridge Winner In Fast Kaysee Game CAMBRIDGE CITY. Ind., Dec. 1. 'Hie Cambr'dee City Independents and Richmond Knights of Columbus staged ;i brilliant up me of basket ball here Tuesday night which Cambridge finally won 10 to IT. The game was fast ;'nd clean. Referee Bills had the game in hand at all times Holliday.

Ki'zaihbons, of iho Knights, scored the greatest ni.niLer of points. 11. He i.hiyed a smashing game and his team depended on him to get the goals. Only a few points separated the teams at any stage of the game, the i' rst half ending 11 to in in favor of Cambridge. T.

Coach Little, of Miami university, yesterday issued n call for basketball practice. Twentyi ine of the best basketball tossers in the school responded, and will try for places on Miami's team this winter. It is, of course, too early as yet to predict anything regarding the strength of Miami's team, but from the abundance of material available Coach Lititle ought to be able to build up a fine machine. Miami will have to show up strong this season in order to make a. showing with the exceptionally strong schedule that has been arranged.

NULL CUTS NET SQUAD; PROSPECTS ARE GOOD FOR SMALL, FAST FIVE High school basket-tossers are practicing with a spirit of enthusiasm that argues well for a successful season. The fact that many of the candidates for the team are small does not lessen the fact that many of them are extremely fast and have an uncanny eye for the basket. Coach Null put his men through their paces Tuesday night after which he cut his squad to about 35 men. lie will work this number lor a night or two when he will make another reduction. The men who do not make the first sriuad will be given a chance to work out and if any of them show marked ability they will be promoted to the first string bunch. The Red and While net men are working with a different spirit than has characterized any or their athletics for some time. Heavy Defense. The defensive department will be heavy if advance indications amount to anything. The center and guard nositions will be taken care of by heavy men who are fast. Loehr and Sam Green, both of whom have been playing football, are working out for the pivot job. Loehr held down this position a great part of last year and seems to have the inside track because of his experience. He will have to do some hard work, however. Rost, Gaylor, Lavin and Walls, all are trying out for the defensive positions. All of them are good men. Rost and Gaylor seem to have the best of the argument thus far because of their experience. Rost has played ball around town but not with the high school. He should make a fast floor guard. Gaylor is big and covers a great deal of territory around the basket. With hard work Lavin and Walls will make these men fight to hold their jobs as regulars throughout the reason. First Game, Dec. 17. Ilarkins, Amick, Brehm ami Livingston are handling the forward jobs in fair style for early season. Amick and Harkins are both fast but small. Ilarkins has had a year's experience. The first game for the high school will be played on the coliseum floor Friday night, Dec. IT, when Knightstown will open the season here.

American Women Hockey Players Impress English ( By Associated Press) LONDON. Dec. 1. The American Women's Hockey team has been cordially received in England and the newspapers have devoted columns to its members, not because of their smartness in play, but what writers term their sportsmanship and pleasing personalities. When they arrived they frankly stated that they had come to learn more of the game from the experienced Britishers, and they proved "good losers" in their early matches. Much has been written about the American costumes. The English girl" wear their playing skirts well above the knee and were surprised to see the Americans come onto the field in skirts far below the knee. The short skirts undoubtedly gave the British ers an advantage in the early games. The skirts, smart sweaters and "permanent waves," the latter admitted by some of the Americans, came in for more comment from the newspapers than details of the play. In the first game the Americans showed to disadvantage in "nursing" the ball, in which the English girls are so proficient, but they have tried to improve their game in that respect.
