RED AND WHITE WINS INTERESTING CONTEST FROM RANDOLPH LADS

Fiaying their opponents off their feet with dazzling pass-work coupled with consistent goal shooting, the Richmond high school basketball barnstorming players brought down the hopes of Winchester high's team in an interesting game at Winchester Saturday night by a 29 to 12 decision. The score stood 14 to 11 at half time In favor of the Richmond five, but, with the opening of the second half, the Winchester lads never had a chance to score from the field with the exception of a few long shots from far out on the playing space. Winchester showed real fight in the first half and through the wonderful long shooting of Monks, they were able to keep in the running with the faster Richmond men. Dale Harkins, Richmond forward who started the game at Winchester, suffered a swelling of the right leg which bothered him to a great extent in the first half. Thi3 plucky player stuck to the deal through the first half but had to give up to Kessler in the second half. Harkins showed up good on defense, but, was unable to move fast enough on offense to score. Keep Things Hot. The entire Richmond team moved in one unit against the Winchester 'III' lad3. Kennedy, Rost and Graffis bore the brunt of the scoring for the evening and kept things hot for the opposing guards throughout the contest. Kessler went in for Harkins in the second half and proved his value as general utility man for the team with his ability to follow the ball while on offense and prevent it being carried back by the opposing offense. His everlasting fight has branded him as a player who never gives up. Monks Valuable. In Monks, Winchester had a valuable man inasmuch as he was practically the only man to break into the scoring column for his team with 10 of the total points. He seemed to have the nack of hitting the goal which they used in the first half. He used a hard bank shot which seemed most impossible to make and these were the kind of shots which kept his team in-the lead during the initial period. Line-up and summary: Richmond (29) Winchester (12) Harkins F Reynardt Rost F Wallace Kennedy C. Monks Graffis G Davis Greene G Fields Field goals Rost 3, Kennedy 5, Graffis 3, Kesler 1, Monks 4, Wallace 1. Foul goals Richmond: :Rost 5; Winchester. Monks 2. Substitutions Richmond: Kessler for Harkins, Mattox for Graffis, Schumaker for Kennedy, Throckmortor for Rost. Referee Allen, Muncie. An interested Winchester fan who seemed to be impartial toward the game, remarked when Kessler went into the game that he just loved to see that 'kid' play. Sam Greene received the usual number of comments on his size and age. Many outside fans who see this young giant in action take him to be a collego man. Monks, of . Winchester, had the combination to the goal daring the first half and he willed it to Kennedy at the opening of the second. The goal was tilted up on the outer rim and

when the ball Was banked hard, it would invariably go through the hoop for a two-pointer. Kennedy assumed the combination and shot two field H coals in rapid succession from far out on the floor in the last half. Kessler resembled a baby tank during the second half and when the

game was over, his eyes were flashing and he looked good for another full game. At one time, he started down the floor to pass to Rost and seeing that another player had stepped in the road of Rost. he sped up and took the ball himself and turned it into a field goal under the basket. Harkin's leg swelled up on him in the first of the game and it seriously handicapped him for the rest of the evening. HAGERSTOWN RUNS UP SCORE ON ECONOMY HAGERSTOWN", Ind., Jan. S.Scnsational basket shooting by Root, Doughty and Wichterman enabled the Hagerstown high school five to wallop the Economy basketeers on the local floor Saturday night by the score of 53 to 13.

There are ways and ways of observing one's birthday, but it remains for Captain Grater of the Wabash basketball team to hit upon a unique mode of celebration. In fact, his is more than a mode or way; by this time it is a well established habit. Here's bow. Grater is a junior at Wabash; this is m third Reason as a regular on the Scarlet varsity five and his birthday is on Jan. 7.

Coach Little has a squad of seconds which has developed into a formidable quintet and bids fair to finish the season in fine shape with several victories to its credit. Richmond put up such a tight defense that the Dixon boys were unable to get many shots at the basket. The ceiling was exceptionally low and the seconds were forced to accustom themselves to the low shooting range before the game started. The two teams agreed that if any goals were made banked off the ceiling, that they would not count. Dixon banked one off the ceiling, but could not count it.
