In a hard-fought contest for first honors
which practically decides the championship
of the District National Basket Ball League

Washington Light Infantry last night. The
score was: E. A. c.. 20; W. l.. L.. Is.
The result of the game places the Eastern
Athletic Club at the top of the ladder with
the Washington Light Infantry one step
below
The game was well played from the start,
and one of the fastest of the season. At
times the contest dragged, when suddenly
the ball would be started up and down the
hall and then all was excitement The
game was characterized by considerable
roughness, and the officials were kept busy
throughout the entire evening warning the
players. McQuade of the Infantry was
painfully injured in the second half He
was carried off the floor and later visited
the Emergency Hospital and had two
stitches put in his face. His place was
filled by Taylor.
The two teams at the start put up n
brilliant play and had begun hard work
when Lotus dropped the sphere into the
basket and scored two points for his team.
From this time on the ball was continually
being dropped into the basket.
Dunn scored for the Easterns and Shreye
was awarded free throw. which he scored
Ockert was awarded a free throw, which
was closely followed by a goal from the
field by Ellis. A few more goals were
scored almost in succession by LOTUS,
SEreve, Barrett, Ellis and Moffitt, just be-
fore the gong sounded. which left the score
standing IL to in favor of the Easterns
At the opening of the second inning both
teams settled down 10 steady work. Thomp-
son of the Easterns got in his good work
and scored a number of exciting goals
amid the terrible roofing of the spectators.
Considerable rough playing crept into the
game and the players were sent sprawlins
over the floor time and time again. Dunn
and Evans did some sharp playing and
were loudly applauded for their work. Ell
lis failed to score a free throw, while
Shreve made good use of the opportunity
and scored one point for his team on a
free throw. Moffitt and Thompson scored
tive more goals apiece. and Ellis one goal
on a free throw, while Kendall made a
clean goal for his team. Shreve also scored
pretty goal from the field by Just touch
ing the ball lightly. enough to cause II to
drop in the basket. This carried the score
up TO 20 to Is in favor of the Easterns
where it stood the remainder OF the inning
The time left to the credit of the two teams
was occupied in tossing the ball up and
down the field. no scores being made Ken

FRED ELLIS WITHDRAWS.

Fred Ellis yesterday decided to with
draw from the senatorial race and he
says he will not permit the use of his
name in the convention at Harper to-
morrow. The reason he assigns for his
decision is the fact that Harper county
sprung a candidate on Saturday in the
person of L. A. Nottzger. of Anthony.
Fred declared when his name was first
mentioned, that he would not make
the race if he could not secure the sup
port of Harper county and as soon as
he heard of the action of the republi
cans over there he announced that he
was out of it.
While the INDEX would liked to have
seen Fred receive this high honor from
his party, we believe that he has done
tie wise thing. There is no chance
for republican in this district and
Fred can not afford to be slaughtered
in his first campaign: His withdrawal
probably makes the nomination of
NOftZger a certainty. The Barber
county delegation will be for the Har-
per county man and If he can swing q
few votes from some of the western
counties he will have the nomination.
The general Opininion is that Mr..
Noftzger is an easy mark for the fusion.
lists. He is popular with nobody and
will run behind his ticket in the dis
trict. MIR. Ellis would have made a
stronger race than any other candidate
mentioned.

remarked, in connection, that once
before, the Doctor was unanimous

as the campaign waxed warm he was
unanimously taken OFF the ticket for
