HIGH MEETS ELKHART IN FiRST HOME GAME OF SEASON TONIGHT Playing their Initial home game of the 1921-22 season, local high school
tasketball players will stack up against.
The highly rated Elkhart high school j five on the Coliseum floor Friday night in the second game of the scheduled double bill. Earlham college and Huntington will open the evening's entertainment at 7:30 o'clock. The Red and White players will present a formidable lineup for their opening home game and their big ambition is to establish themselves in the hearts of Richmond backers with a decisive win over the northern city's team. This year's team has the opportunity to advance into high state circles through the efforts of their coach, who gives a great amount of attention to the athletes. Recent scrimmages have brought out the real ability of the Red and White quintet and with its clock-work team play working as it has in the past, the victory Is expected to be decisive.
Coach Stenger, having had the ex
perience on the college basketball courts of Illinois, is injecting into his
athletes a keen knowledge of
game. His tactics on offense are ex
pected to make the team one of the speediest fives In this section. Harkins and Rost are expected to start as forwards. They are a pair of tossers who work together in splendid fashion. They have worn the uniform of the Red and White several years. The center position probably will fall to Kennedy at the start of the game, with Schumaker on hi3 heels. Schumaker has been showing marked improvement at each practice and competition for the berth Is growing each day. Graffis Stands Out. Jean Graffis stands out a3 the logical bet for the responsible Job at
than any other man on the Red and Whiteteam. Under the basket, towering high over the entire team, will be seen Captain Sam Green, who is putting np a wonderful brand of defensive play with his enormous size. Elkhart high school will have several of their last year's stars in the game and from present Information, they are a scrapping lot. Hosack and Buck of last year's team will be seen in action against the locals and they will be well remembered by the mem
bers of the team which journyed to
Elkhart last year and emerged from
the fray with a 20-17 win. The game will start promptly following the Earlham-Huntington contest. The lineup which will start the game: Richmond Elkhart Rost V N. Peterson Harkins F Hosack Kennedy C Evans Graffis G Olinghouse Green G Longacre Utility: Elkhart Buck, Randolph and C. Peterson. Richmond Mattox, Kessler. Spaulding, Reid, Amick, Schumaker, Good.

style of game used by the Visitors. New Madison opened the scoring with a field goal but the Kewpie3 soon tied it up and went into the lead with another goal from the field and never were headed from then on. The visitors were somewhat slow in getting started, but when they became accustomed to the floor they began a bombardment of the New Madison hoop and obtained a comfortable lead, although they missed many shots that should have been turned into goals. The passwork of the Kewpies was very good. On many occasions they
passed the ball under the basket sev-P"ce

it up. Every Man Gets Chance Every man on the visitors' squad was given a chance in the game and! all showed up well in the contest.
