STORMY TIMES IN
GAME At ANDERSON

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
ANDERSON, Ind, Dec. 2S.-Jessup's band
of Quaker polOists rubbed it in hard on
Anderson tonight They skated faster,
fought harder. passed the ball TO better ad-
vantage and at every point on the floor
outclassed the Anderson team. 1t was not
a game of polo by any means, but after the
first fast period resolved itself into rough
and-tumble fight. Lush, the new referee,
failed to reach Anderson and Klobedanz,
who had resigned TO prevent being dis
missed, was given charge of the floor in an
intoxicated condition. He called many
fouls, fined Bone s. and then refused to
ment. Secretary David Durbin was ac-
copied when Jessup declared IL his inten-
tion to take his team from the rink be-
cause Bob Fisher, a local, was substituted
for Klobedanz. Secretary Durbin was
heartily cheered and his presence the
floor settled the combatants somewhat, al
though it was not until he fined Bone that
the Richmond aggregation settled into
some semblance of a polo contest The Wis
itOrs' defense was practically impregnable
and their victory was won by better play
ing. The big crowd Missed. howled and
cheered in turn. A conference at the end
of the game wiped out most of the fouls.

The regular game between the first Ger
man House team and that of Shortridge
High School was as fiercely contested as
any league game in the city. The former
squad was greatly weakened by the alb
sence of Jansen. their crack forward. and
because of the changed lineup team work
was lacking S. H S. started out with
dash that took their somewhat confident
opponents with surprise. Although the
blue and white players had never practiced
in that gymnasium before they had less
difficulty in locating the basket than Ger
man House. The first half ended with
S. II. 5. three points iE the lead.
In the second half Cook. Training

practically the whole team, for. with the
exception Of a field goal by Mckinney, he
made every point Palmer fouled a great
deal in the latter part of the game. The
work of the Social Turner's could hardly

TO FIGHT TONIGHT FOR
CHAMPIONSHIP HONORS
Preparations Complete for the
Bout Between Young Corbett
and Eddie Hanlon.

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 2s.-Everything
of preliminary character has been settled
for the fight tomorrow night between
Young Corbett and Eddie Hanlon. the local
aspirant for championship honors. 1t was
announced at Corbett's training quarters to-
day that the Denverite is down to weight.
and that there is no possibility Of him tip
ping over lbs pounds at weighing-in time to-
morrow. He is pronounced 10 be perfectly
INT. and will not have the excuse TO offer
this time of lack Of condition preventing
him squeching Hanlon's ambition. as IL did
at their previous meeting. AT that time the
champion put low estimate on the ability
OF the little Westerner and sighted his
training to such extent that he barely
pulled out of the encounter with a draw
decision Hanlon is lad of steady habits,
and consequently always in fair trim. and
as he does his training conscientiously
there are always good reports from his
camp. The selection of Graney as referee
to-day brought out some deferred betting,
and most of the money was placed at 10 to
s, with Corbett favorfte. Both men were
on the road this morning doing light work.
and the afternoon was devoted 10 some
gymnasium exercises. Tonight practically
finishes the training. A record-breaking at
tendance is looked for by the managers OF
the fight. The sale of seats will exceed
$4,000 Both boys are In fine shape.
