EarIham, SO; Antioch, II.

Il certainly was big juicy lemon
handed the Antioch basket ball team
at the Coliseum last evening by the
fighting five representing Earlham
college. 1t was in the shape OF score
OF SO to II. The Quaker representa-
tives were at their best and their play
ing was almost without fault. Antioch
was fast and their team work was such
that It kept the whole Quaker five
busy breaking up their passes. Hotch-
kiss and Tebbetts, Earlham star for
ward and guard, played whirlwind
game and had their opponents guess
ing throughout the contest. Both
showed plainly that they are two of
the best men that have represented the
Quaker college for several years. Cor
nell another of Earlham's guards play
ed a fair game. Lindley at center
was good, but not aggressive enough
and too slow in his passes. Conrad
plainly showed last evening that he
is expected that he will be one of the
star men before the season closes.
Antioch Played Fast
All the men from Antioch showed
they were clever players, but their
team work and fast playing was cas-
lily broken up. The team was awarded
three points during the game by Ref
cree Babb.
The first half Of the game opened at
whirlwind pace. The visitors made
the first score which was closely fol-
lowed by goal from field by Tebbetts.
Both teams slowed down to some ex-
tent and with Tebbetts making several
foul goals, and field goals by Lindley.
Hotchkiss and Conrad, the first half
closed with Earlham leading six

Second Half Speedy.
The second half opened with Earl
ham playing all around their oppon-
ents and in short time had the score
Is to 49, Then the visitors were de-
liberately given three points by the
referee to save them from becoming
disheartened and quitting the game. 1t
was during this half that the superior
playing of Hotchkiss was plainly no.
ticeable On several occasions he toss
ed the ball from the center of the floor.
He held his men together in excellent
form and much OF the success of the
game is due to him In the latter
part of this half Conrad retired in
favor of Reese. He is good individual
player, but takes too many hard shots
for the basket.
