During the last half the visitors were held to one field goal by the hard working defense of the locals. Richmond managed to gather six points during this period. Rost and Ixhman each registered a field goal and Harkins made good on two free shots. Rost is Aggressive Rost played one of the best games Bhown by a high school player in Rich mond for some time. He was scrap ping all the time, playing his position at floor guard in a creditable man ner and connecting with the loop for eight points which made him scorer of the evening. Every member of the high, school team showed Improvement. They did not fight as hard in this game as In the Shelbyville contest, but came through with enough tallies to tuck the game away in the win column Green at back guard played a hard game and was largely responsible for the low score of the visitors. Most of the men that come up against this stalwart guardian of the Richmond basket, have a wholesome regard for him after the first few minutes of play. Loehr played a good floor game and started off the scoring for the locals with a long shot from the side of the floor. Only one substitution was made by Richmond, when Loehr was put out of the game for personal fouls Spaulding went to back guard, and Green played center. Connersville tried out seven substitutes in an effort to defeat the locals. Bath Sides Play Clean. The game was clean, and bath teams played as real sports.

BRINGING UP FATHER BY He MAN US "Regf. TJ. 8. Pat Off." PETITION PROTESTS LANDIS EMPLOYMENT AS BASEBALL JUDGE (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Jan. 15 A petition protesting against the employment of Judge Kenesaw M. Landis as national baseball commissioner has neen prepared by Thomas J. Sutherland, a Chicago lawyer, and sent to members of congress from Illinois, it was learned today. In a letter to Chicago newspapers informing them of his action, Mr. Sutherland is said to have urged that they "comprehend the importance of this petition" and called their attention to "this attempt to mulct the government and also to set an example of vicious infidelity to public service." The petition demands action relative to Judge Landis serving both as a Judge and an agent of the baseball commission. It seeks to show that the judge in accepting an annual salary from the baseball commission of $42,500 a year, while drawing a salary of $7,500 a year as federal judge is acting in violation of the spirit of statutes preventing a government officer from engaging in remunerative private enterprises. "Judge Landis," says Mr. Sutherland, in his petition, "by his contract with the leagues has attempted to barter away what belongs to the government and all the people to an organization of a special few and to receive therefrom an office of profit in direct violation of the mandates of the constitution and laws. "Unfortunately it has been done publicly and ostentationsly with all its vicious and demoralizing influences; and if his conduct is to remain unchallenged by congress it will become an incentive to lawyers of a certain class to seek appointment to the federal bench with the purpose partly of doing precisely what he has done to its degradation." When told of the petition. Judge Landis said: "I looked into things well before accepting this baseball work. I ' feel that I did right in accepting the place offered to me."

Big Ten Competition is Spirited Tonight (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Jan. 15. Spirited competition in the western conferences championship basketball race may be expected tonight when all the big teams get Into action for the first time this season. Wisconsin will clash with Chicago. Ohio plays with Michigan, Iowa opens with Minnesota and Northwestern will take the floor against Purdue. The belated start of Chicago, Iowa, and Minnesota in the race has given these teams a longer practice period and a chance to develop team work. Wisconsin regarded as the dark-horse in the race, has played two conference games, winning one of them. DE PAUW TOO MUCH FOR EARLHAM SQUAD; LOCALS MISS JOHNSON GREENCASTLE, Ind., Jan. 15 The Earlham basketball team went down to defeat by the score of 51-31 before the DePauw university team at Greencastle last night. Neither five displayed defensive strength and the un-j usually long playing floor of DePauw j baffled the attack of the Quakers. j A greater part of the play took place In the Earlham territory although at times the invaders were able to break away into scoring distance of the DePauw goal. The game was featured by the all-round playing of Goar. Earlham forward, who was substituted for Lawler early in the fray. Mendenhall i and White of DePauw registered thirty of the winners' points. The Tigers jumped into the lead ati the opening of the game and werei never headed, the first half closing with the count 24-16. Goals by Mendenhall, White and Cannon contributed , to the Methodist score. The play of the entire DePauw five showed marked improvement over the style shown against the Em Roes, who outclassed the Tiger speedsters early in the week. The exceptionally loose defensive play of both fives accounts for the heavy scoring. The absence of Johnson, back guard, was felt heavily by the Quakers, although Beasley put up a good game at his position. The Earlham players fought hard under their own basket but they were unable to stop the DePauw scoring machine. The work of Goar, Hall and Carey on the offensive was strong, and the scoring honors were evenly divided. Meet Franklin Tonight Tonight the Quakers have a chance to redeem their prestige when they meet the Franklin five at Franklin. Thurber's men are known to have a strong combination this year. Their actual strength is hard to determine since they have played few games in fast company. This will be the Quakers' second I. C. A. L. contest.

LEONARD'S KNOCKOUT GIVES FRANCE $90,000 NEW YORK. Jan, 15 The American committee for devastated France today announced it had realized $90,000 from its management of the boxing bout last night In which Benny Leonard, lightweight champion, scored a technical knockout over Ritchie Mitchell, in the sixth round. The gate receipts amounted to $150,000, the largest in the history of lightweight boxing, of which $40,000 went to Leonard and $20,000 to Mitch ell. The crowd of about 14,000 which packed Madison Square Garden, was made up not only of the usual quota of fistic fans but a galaxy of society folk wearing glittering starched shirt3 and evening gowns. Miss Anne Morgan, chairman of the committee, who was given a rousing ovation by the crowd, declared she was "crazy about" the fight Discusses Blow Fans were discussing the bout toone of the greatest encounters in a decade. Discussing the blow Mitchell delivered in the first round which made the champion stagger down for a count of nine, Leonard said: "It was a dying lunge. It caught mc fairly and it certainly bothered me. It came so unexpectedly. Oh, yes, Mitchell always was a dangerous man. When I dropped I cleared my head and winked to Billy Gibson (Leonard's manager) to let him know I was all right." "I want to fight him again," declared Mitchell. "I almost had him licked, but I got careless. Next time I will certainly do it" Dry Cleaning SUITS PRESSED 50c

MONDAY WILL BRING HIGHLY TOUTED TEAM TO FACE LEGION FIVE Monday night probably will see one of the fastest basketball games that has been seen In local independent net circles here for several years, when the American Legion quintet takes the Detroit Rayls on the coliseum floor. The announcement that the game was to be played on Friday night was erroneous. The legion team was fortunate in scheduling the game, with this fast outfit, and it evidently appreciates the caliber of the team they are going up against, If the workouts that they are taking every night to get in condition for the game can be taken as indication. .... The Rayls' lineup Is composed of professional players' gathered, from all parts of the country. They have held the Michigan state title for five seasons, were mid-western champions in 1918. Thus far this season, they have not met defeat. They are starting on a mid-western road trip, meeting some of the fastest teams in this part of the country. Captain McBride, of the legion, announces that the same lineup used in previous fames this season, will take the floor Monday night. Legion players realise they are going up against the fastest team in their history and will put up a great fight Tickets for the game are selling for 75 cents in the reserved section. The first four rows down stairs will be reserved. Reserved seats can be had at - the Starr Piano company salees room, corner Tenth and Main streets. Dickens Is a favorite in Russia. Both "The Cricket on the Hearth" and 'A Christmas Carol" have been dramatized there. r- i I Save Money on Men's Clothing and I Furnishings at This Store 1 FRANKEL & HARDING 820 Main St. uanimiiniiiummiintmnninniiuuiiiiumiim and Pressing SUITS CLEANED $1.25 8econd Floor Give Photographs PHOTOS KiltAMST no Licenses including January 12 ready at license at once.
