to " i rti fit QUAKER SCRUBS, HIGH, FIGHT UP AND DOWN FOR HOUR'S PRACTICE Coach Stenger's high school football eleven clashed with the Earlham college second team Monday evening and raged up and down the gridiron for a period of practically one hour. The Earlham scrubs were reinforced by the presence of Nash Higgins, as sistant Earlham coach, at the center position. With Higgins in at center, the scrubs were able to put up such a stiff opposition that the high school team had its hands full every minute of the scrimmage. The two teams struggled up, down and across the field in evenly balanced competition for a period of 30 minutes, without a score. Finally the col lege seconds broke through under the direction of Nash Higgins, for a touchdown. The score was made by a pretty and well executed pass from Higgins to the second's quarter-back who was 10 yards across the hign school line when he caught the pass. The fact that they had been scored upon by the Earlham seconds, instilled fight and invigorated offensive stamina into the "Hi" squad and through the execution of several endruns and forward passes, the ball was carried over the high school eleven. This evened the score at 6 all. Darkness Ends Play The two teams resumed play after the score was tied, but the scrimmage was soon called off, due to the oncoming darkness. The high school squad, not the least bit disheartened by its defeat at Hamilton Saturday, turned out in full force at Earlham Monday evening and renewed its efforts to perfect the eleven into a smooth-running machine. Coach Stenger is taking advantage of the accommodation which Earlham extends in offering the field and competition by pushing his under-studies to the extreme in preparation for the strenuous schedule of games this year. The high 'school athletic director has plenty of reason for the extended! x-rLrii r o KaancA tha trs TV O xvV i fV thai "Hi" team will play this Saturday will be one which will be bitterly fought. The Wilkinson team which plays here is a team which is composed of "cornfed'' huskies who do nothing but play football all fall. Hope to Win It is the intention of the red and white team to frustrate any attempt on the part of the Wilkinson players to carry away the heavy end of the 6core sheet in Saturday's game. The game with Wilkinson will be played as the curtain-raiser to the Earlham-Wilmington game. The dual performance of the afternoon promises to he a great drawing card to Reid field Saturday afternoon, due to tho fact that the twin bill will be the first football which the Richmond public has had a chance to see this year. Urges Legislation Require Elevens Evenly Matched By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 4. Legislation to stop light men being pitted against heavy ones on the gridiron is favored by J. W. Heisman, head coach of the University of Pennsylvania foot ball squad. In an address here last night Heisman said the public would not stand for a man of 125 pounds meeting one weighing 200 pounds in the boxing ring and the fact that the same rule did not apply to football was one of the defects of the game.

DUNDEE SAVES TITLE IN 12 ROUND BOUT BEFORE MIAMI CLUB DAYTON, O., Oct. 4 Johnny Dundee, of New. York, junior lightweight champion, defended his title successfully against Blocky Richards of Dayton before the Miami Athletic club at Triangle park Monday night in a 12round bout. Richards fought mostly a defensive bout and forced Dundee to do all the leading. Blocky made a great showing against the Wod and whenever he chose to lead, he had Dundee moving about the ring in lively fashion. Dundee started fast and tried hard to put Block out for the count but could not land the necessary punch. Dundee disin the ring that has been seen in Dayplayed some of the best generalship ton for some time. The semi-final bout also proved to be a very good exhibition when Johnny McCoy of Rochester, N. Y., won a decision over Hughie Richards, of Dayton. Hughie is a youngster and is a comer in the game. McCoy used every trick in his power to apply the k. o. to Hughie, but Hughie displayed some very clever stuff and McCoy could not hit him to any advantage. Hughie is especially clever at dodging and blocking blows but does not carry the necessary wollop. A story was recently told to exemplify the pride which every man I feuouia taite in tne work Dy which tie makes a living.. Two street sweepers, seated on a curbstone, were discussing a comrade who had died the day before. "Bill certainly was a good sweeper," said one. "Ye-e-s," conceded the other, thoughtfully. "But don't you think he was a little weak around the lamt)posts?' Harry Heilman, Detroit outfielder, won the 1921 batting championship of the American league by .0003 of a point, according to an official report. Heilman's boss, Ty Cobb, gave him a merry chase for the title, the figures for the season "were , Heilman .3904; Cobb .3901. Babe Ruth, home run king, -an nounced his 1922 batting campaign plans. Ruth smacked out 59 circuit clouts which was one short of the mark he had set to reach, and he announced that he was planning to hit the three score mark next season. Unusual interest in the world 6eries is being shown in Paris, by the Ameri can colony. Several wagers have been made with even money predominating, but late bets make the Yanks 6light favorites, with 11 to 10 being bet. Chailes Rigler and Ernest Quigley will be umpires in the world series from the National league and George Moriarty and OUie Chill from the American League. Jay Kirke, first sacker for the champion Louisville team in the association established a new world's record for hits in one season, Sunday afternoon in a double header with the Milwaukee club, when he brought his total for the year up to 282 safe blows. He also led the association in batting, with an average of 384. WORLD CHESS TOURNEY (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Oct. 4.
