QUAKERS WALK AWAY FROM ANT10GH TEAM IN SLOW NET GAME Experiencing little difficulty In defeating their lighter opponents, the Earlham basketball team romped over the Antioch aggregation to the tune of 60-14 In the opening game of the sea- ' son at the coliseum, Friday night. At

no time during the game were the Quakers in danger of being headed. That the strength of the Ohio flv . had hffn rraaftv nvAraotlma t was I evident after the first few minutes of play. They were obviously unable to fathom the method of attack used by x Mowe's men and settled down into a dogged attempt to keep the score from mounting too rapidly. , The game was slowed up by repeated substitutions as Mowe took advantage of the new' rules and used every man on the squad, trying out a new combination every few minutes, virtually turning the game into a practice session for his men. The score continued to climb with regularity after the second stringers had been put in. .Thirteen men were used by the Quaker mentor during the fray. Mo Stars Brought Out. No outstanding individual stars were brought out during the game as rractically every man on the Quaker team came across with his share of the markers. Captain Trawler opened up the scoring with a shot from the side after the first minute of play. Carey, the lankey center, soon followed his example and after this the scoring continued with monotinuous regularity. Even Johnson, who rarely tries a shot at the meetings dropped one through from the middle of the floor. After 10 minutes of play Goar was substituted for Hall and shortly after Hadley went in for Beck. Before the close of the half, Townsend replaced Carey at center, Beaslcy went in for Johnson at back guard, and C. Kellum took Lawler's place. The Antioch quintet was unable to make any progress against the scrubs and at the close of the half had scored only one field goal. Scrubs Show Up. The second half opened with the scrubs still representing Earlham. ?e8?.dieUir8PIaC.e1 Tos jT c-.ii H ,'' " -.T ...

CRACK BASKETBALL TEAM IS PROMISED BY LEGION SCRAPPERS Advance dope on the American Legion basketball team seems to indicate that the Richmond post will have one of the strongest fives of any post in the state. Not only will it be better than the majority of Legion teams but it should hold its own against any independent organization that it goes up against. The team will be part of the state athletic organization which is promoting athletics in Legion posts. The American Legion has an organization very similar to that of the Indiana high school league. Plans from the state headquarters are that district tournaments be held in the 13 districts of the state to determine the winners to go to the final meet which will be held in Indianapolis the early part of March. This is aimed to stimulate interest in the net game generally and in each legion post particularly. According to local officials virtually every post in the state is putting some kind of a team in the field. Promise Classy Five. The personnel of the local tea.m I PTiarflntooa Vi ci f T7iHmrn1 will v resented by a firTclass quintet. The team as now made up consists of i Porter and O'Xeile, forwards; Simmons, center; McBride and Berstch, guards. All of these men are experienced in the net tickling game and have played independent and high school ball for several years. Porter, O'Xeile, Simmons and MeBride have played on the Richmond high school teams. Berstch is an old wonder in the back-guard position. With all of these men working together there seems to be little doubt Lut that they will give any team a run To-their money. Seek Championship. The final championship of the legion teams of the state is the ultimate goal of the locals and all of them are said ha in s,rint t , tion to play the best f th , carGGr Dr. George Hunt, commander of the Harry Ray post of the American Legion here, is back of the team and he states that nil the members of the legion are pulling for their team to make a good showing. As a special attraction to the games that will be played in Richmond the American Legion band will give a concert with each game. This will afford an added attraction for the admission price of one good basketball game. Defeat Winchester. The Legion team pried off tho lid of its season with the game against Winchester's Phi Delts Wednesday night. This was thought a hard game for the locals because of the fact that the Winchester team had not been defeated this season. The local legion team turned the trick by a comfortable margin. Muncie Y. M. C. A. will be the first opponent for the local five when they stack up on the coliseum floor here next Wednesday night. The Muncie team is touted as being a crack organization and the locals will have their hands full to get away with the long end of the score. Tickets for this game will be placed on sale in the cigar stores downtown and by members of the legion. If this game proves to be a success attractions of like calibre will be given throughout the winter. GRAY STONE JUG BACK AS MICHIGAN TROPHY PITTSBURGH, Dec. 11. A five-gallon gray stone jug will have a position of honor on the University of Michigan table at the banquet of the Western Conference alumni association here tonight. The jug has a history dating back to 1903. The Michigan football team of that year journeyed to Minneapolis to play the University of Minnesota. A five-gallon gray stone jug filled with Ann Arbor water was taken to Minneapolis by the trainpr. The game ended in a 6-6 score. During the excitement attending the, close of the game the jug disappeared and later 1 1 anneared in the troDhv room of the Universitv of Minnesota. It remained there until 1909, when the Michigan team again went to Minneapolis to play. fhe nieht before the contest It was announced that if Michigan won she could have her jug back. Michigan won 12-5 and went home carrying the five-gallon jug. The same agreement was made before the 1910 game, but Michigan won the gam? and jug. Last fall Minnesota went to Ann Arbor and defeated Michigan. She took the jug home with her. This year the jug was returned to Michigan due to her 3-0 victory. Good Taste BREAD Made by ZWISSLER

Jack Dcmpsey, at left, training on Undismayed by the fate of Billy Miske in his bout with Jack Demnsey, heavyweight king, at Benton Harbor, Mich., last July Fourth, Bill Brennan is putting the finishing touches on his training for a crack at the champ. Bill and Dempsey will meet De LOCAL CLUBS READY FOR BENEFIT GAME The Young Men's Business club basketball managers are working overtime in preparation with the game with the Kiwanis club for "World's Championship," which will be staged Monday evening. Dec. 20, as a benefit affair, the money to be used for Christmas baskets for those unfortunates of the city who otherwise probably would be minus a holiday dinner. Herb Logan, who has ieen appointed to get togethpr a squad of net men to represent the Y. M. B. C, states that his plans are progressing nicely and that he expects to put a team on the floor that will ably represent the young city boosters. The team will practice two nights next week, so they will not be an inexperienced bunch who take the floor. Probable Players. Some of the possible candidates for the young men's club will be Eugene Quigg, Benjamin Johnson, Harold Taggart and Herbert Logan, all former Earlham players. Besides these there will be a wealth of others who will be called upon to report at the practice sessions. Coach Ray Mowe is in charge of the Kiwanis club team, and as yet has made no announcement as to the personnel of his team. The athletic prestige of the club, which romped on the Rotary club in a baseball game this fall, is at. stake, and there is little doubt that the Kiwanians will make every effort to have their team up to standard in every respect. Tickets are to go on sale early next week and advance dope seems to point that there will be a crowd that will tax the seating capacity of the oliseum. Special stunts will be put on before the game and between the two halves, the exact nature of which will not. be divulged until the curtain is drawn for the evening's entertainment. Both clubs are strongly backof the proposition, and a keen rooting rivalry is expected from the respective clubs. CANCELS YALE GAME (By Associated Press) PITTSBURGH, Dec. 11.

Dec. 11 New Madison high school proved to be easy for Whitewater high school varsity basketballer3 here last night, goj ing down in defeat by the score of 54 to 13. The champion team hailing from the Ohio school was unable to cope with the situation and the game was never in doubt at any time for the locals. The crack squad representing Whitewater, with Blose and the regular line-up back in the game, played rings around the visitors at all stages of the game. Blose started the scoring for Whitewater and Hunt, followed with two long ones from center. Bennett led the scoring for New Madison. The half ended 18 to 6. The Whitewater lads rushed things to the limit during the last half making goal after goal from all angles of the floor pilling up 36 points. New Madison used all the new men available in a vain attempt to stop the onslaught of Whitewater but it could not be done. Hunt led. the scoring making 18 points. Every man on the Whitewater squad scored. Girls' Team Loses.

U UKUH I H& s :- i 7 s Futuii Siovicc. Inc. - BASEBALL INTERESTS MEET TO FORMULATE NATIONAL AGREEMENT 'By Associated Press) - NEW YORK, Dec. 11. the greatest convention of baseball interests ever assembled in this country involving a program for complete re-organization of the sports government, got under way here today. Overshadowing all other problems facing the conferees, who numbered representatives from all professional branches of "the national game" was the formulation of a new national agreement. The sessions will continue for sereral days under the presidency of Judge K. M. Landis, newly appointed bead of the sport. The annual meeting of the New International league, scheduled for Monday and the meetings of the National league and the National league of baseball writers, on Tuesday, are likely to be held simultaneously with those of the main gathering -if its business is not cleared up before hand. Must Satisfy All. Besides the great task of formulating and enacting a new constitution which it is hoped will satisfy all parties in the agreement a number of other important matters are expected to be disposed of, including some important deals involving exchange of major league players, many of which have been rumored recently. The events that led up to the necessity of adopting a new national agreement-had their beginning about two years ago, when the National association of Professional baseball leagues, the organization of minor leagues broke away from the national agreement because of a controversy relative to draft provisions. Then there arose from various quarters a demand for a re-organizaition of the National combination generally referred to as the supreme court of baseball. The commission had been composed rf the presidents of the National and American leagues with August Herrmann president of the Cincinnati club of the National league as chairman.
