BAPTISTS BEAT
CENTRAL !. N. c. A.

Half, Come Back and
Win in Second.

The basket ball team representing
the Baptist Athletic league scored
victory over Central Y. NJ. C. A. inter-
mediates. one OF the crack teams of
Chicago, last night. after being beaten
In the first half The victory was won
by a burst of speed In the second half
that took the visitors off their feet. and
the final score was 81 TO 2S.
The first half ended with the score
is to and things We're looking rather
blue for the Hammond boys, when they
took a brace in the second half and
before the Central Y. NJ. c. a. boys
knew what was being done, four bas-
kets had been made in four minutes
and the victory was practically as
sured.
The team work Of the visitors was
much better than that Of the locals.
and II 1t had not been for the fact that
they had a weak guard, there would
have been no question of the result
On the contrary the Baptists had q
strong guard in Jake Buttner and In
spite Of the superb team work of the
Central team, he was able to spoil
their game.
The Y. NJ. c. A boys came to Ham
mond with a lot of tricks that thew
thought would win the game. and in
the second half the Hammond attn
letes gave the visitors a dose of their
own medicine and the result speaks
for itself.
The Baptists have a game scheduled
with Crown Point for next Saturday
and they will journey to the county
seat 10 beard the lion in his own den.

HACK IS GAME;

Big Crowd Turns Out to See

Hackenschmidt Is Aggressive and
Pleases the Spectators by His
Defiant Manner.

Frank Gotch. catch as catch can

schmidt, the Russian lion, for the
worlds title. had a good workout at
Brooke's casino last night against
Charles Hackenschmidt. the young
German from Iowa, Gotchs home state.
Frank won in straight falls, taking
the first In thirty-six minutes with a
leg and arm hold and half-Nelson and
the second in eighteen minutes with a
toe lock and arm hold.
One Of the best crowds Of the season
turned out to see the champion work.
Few thought Hackenschmidt had a
chance, but all wanted to see the Hum
boldt terror in action no matter how
easy his task. And it was easy, too.
although Frank, before downing his
man for the first fall, INDUCED in a
lot of fancy foot work. sparrlng and
tinoanning before going into the fray
seriously.
Gotch Is the bigger.
Gotch lowered over his opponent.
He appeared a bit too high in flesh to
be in his best form and scaled appar-
emily 200 pounds. Hack weighed less
than $50 and looked small In compari-
son. though prettily built and very
stacy.
From the start 1t was plain that
Gotch possessed too much strength for
his opponent. who could do nothing
with the big fellow, though not lack
ing in aggressiveness. t4otch seemed
satisfied to let the fellow work
his head off if necessary, knowing that
he had fba uppar hand ord op,rld ont Il

Hack never let up. and bulling 4
around the champ in defiant
sort of way, made a showing for hall

Good Showing.

The Hammond high school played
the Lake high school Of Chicago last
night in the auditorium in the Central
building and the locals went down to
defeat with a score Of 81 to 10 in ia
vor Of Lake
There is no question that the Ham
mond boys were outclassed, as the Chi
cago players were cleaner cut in their
actions, had by far the better team
work and guarded their men better.
but there is also no question that the
Hammond five put up a game fight
and with competent coach have the
making of strong team.
Referee Bauer. while very energetic
in his capacity as an official seemed
to have his eyes wide open at all
! times and rendered several hairbreadth
decisions in matter of fouls that net
ted the visiting team six or eight
points. According to Bauer's interpre-
tation of the rules anything that even
resembles a scrimmage is a foul and
several times the Hammond boys We're
guarding their men in the best of form
and without undue crowding when they
would be penalized for it.
Early Establishes Class.
Early in the game it was seen that
! the Lake high boys were top notchers
as basket ball players. Their passing
and team work was perfect and they
guarded their men splendidly. They
had way of Running the ball down
to the home goal and the marksman-
ship shown when they got there was
of the best.
The Hammond five played hard and
made some fine shots at the basket
when they We're able to get within

seemed to prefer the amateurish meth
