THE HEAVY WABASH TEAM
Had the Best Backfeld Ever on Reld
Field-Shank Was Ruled from
the Game.

The Earlham football team yester-
day afternoon for the fourth time
this season, went down, the scrappy
Wabash eleven turning the trick.
The cause of the defeat can be told
in a few words. The Quarkers were
outweighted, outclassed and out
plaved. The largest crowd OF the
season witnessed the game and rem
dered the home team loyal support
to the bitter end. The game was
snappy from Wabash point of
view and Shank, the pugilistic end
on the "Little Giant eleven, was
sruled off the~rr4isltl for using his
dukes too freely on an Earlham
( forward. Wabash has the best back
field that has played on Reid field
for several seasons and their work,
with Laurence, of Earlham, punting,
was easily the features of the game.
The score at the end of the game
was 35 to O., and every point scored
was clean, straight football. Not
once during the game did Earlham
make first down and the beautiful
puntine of Laurence was the only
redeeming feature of the Quaker
play. The contest emphasized one
thing conclusively The vulnerable
points in the Earlham defense are
the tackles. Miller, the little Wabash
quarter, who ran his team like
machine, was not slow i'll picking out
these weaknesses and eight out OF
every ten plays were directed at
/ these loop holes.
The first half was opened by Wa
bash kicking off to Earlham. The
4 Quakers' first play was directed
against the Wabash line and the as
1 sault was repulsed with ease. On
4 the second play Earlham was penal
lied for offside play and Laurence
promptly punted Wabash hinged
her first two assaults against Reagan
at right tackle and made no head
sway, these two attacks. however,
seemed To take all of the strength
out OF this player as the remainder
of the game the Wabash backs found
Reagan avenue splendid driveway
for advancing the ball After these
two repulses Wabash punted and the
back who handled the ball was
sdowned on his ten yard line. after
two more futile attempts to advance
s.he ball Laurence pslnted 10 MID

QUEER GAME
Two Men Dressed as Quakers Work
ing Against Republicans.

Two men representing themselves
as Quakers from South Carolina are
said to be circulating among the
Cuakers of Grant and surrounding
counties distributing anti-Roosevelt
literature. They also have i'll their
possession a large quantity of litera-
ture which they are circulating
through the postofTice and by all 9th
err means. The men recently made
their appearance near Plainfeld and
did the same thing and members of
the Friends association began at once
ar inquiry to ascertain if they were
what they claimed to be, genuine
members of the Friends association.

Broken,

lie Roy McCreary, right end on the
Earlham football team had his collar
bone broken during the game be-
tween Wabash and Earlham on Reid
field yesterday afternoon. All dur
ing the game previous to his receiv-
ing an injury McCreary was in every
play and seemed to be the heart OF
the team. He went into the game
with broken finger and this pre-
vented him from protecting himself
as well as he might have done.
During one of the plays McCreary
attempted 10 tackle one of the Wa
bash men and received what is called
"stiff arm McCreary fell to the
ground and one or two other players
fell on him. McCreary was able to
stand on his feet all right. but found
that he was unable TO move by him

POOR SERVICE
Given Football Patrons on Saturday

The street car company gave the

poor service. Immediately after the

was no chance for very many from

more the people waited IN the cool

finally did come it was packed to
the guards in a short while. \ large
number of people had to wait over
an hour before they could get to the
city. 1t seems strange that the

make proper arrangements TO take

the floor, and BIackfOrd realized with a
sbudder that but for the creakiug of
the old wooden steps ne would have
been detected in a claudestine peTusal
OF his uncIe's secret. AS the girl turned
TO the window he saw the glimmer Of "a
gold chain about her bare throat, and
realized with a start that it supported
the coveted locket.
TIE girl had never seemed so beautt-
full TO him before. Her light brown hair
was lOOsened and fell below her waist
In attractive confusion. She raised Ter
hands TO a cross bar of the window and
leaned her forehead against the cold
glass, and In the action her sleeves fell
back, disclosing a beautifully rounded
arm that appeared more white in the
soft moonlight, Presently she began
sobbing softly, and her bosom rose ard

one bold effort. To spring suddenly
upon her mufaing her screams with the

matter Of extreme simplicity. She
would undoubtedly faint and give him
the chance 10 rob her Of the loCitet and
secure the secret. He would never be
suspected and by a few skillful arrange

make il appear that a robber had broken
into the house and being surprised by
the girl had attacked her and stolen
the locket from her neck
He commenced TO crawl carefully to-
