BAPT|STS PROVE ONCE MORE
THAT THEY ARE |NV|NC|bLE

Another victory for the invincible
eighth straight victory. by winning
over the fast Bessemer Park five by
the Bessemer Park. gymnasium in South
Chicago.
Playing under a handicap the B. A. c.
of Hammond defeated the South Chi
cago five in a hard-fought and strenu-
Gus game by a margin of but one point.
The forwards on the Hammond team
were handIcappe by the fact that the
backboards which are usually made OF
wood, were made of wire, it being diff
ficult work for the forwards of the
Hammond nine to make baskets.
The excellent work of Buettner and
Parker. the two guards on the b. A c.
team, is all that saved them from de-
feat Their defensive work against
the South Chicago team in keeping
them from making baskets and hold
ing them to the low score was easily
the feature, and also won the game for
Hammond. as the forwards could not
make the baskets, they being unused to
the wire backboards In all proba-
bility the Hammond five would have
run up large score on the South Chi
cago team had the backboards been
made of wood.
The South Chicago team put forth
every ounce of physical energy in ar
effort to win the game and also used
eight men. putting in three fresh play

ers in the second halg, while the Ham
mond team used the same lineup
throughout the game.
In the first half the Baptists led with
one point, which counted them a vic
tory, but the best they could do in the
second half was to hold the Bessemer
Park five to a tie.
The Baptist five is one of the fastest
teams in this part of the region and
have defeated nearly every opposing
team in these parts.
George Wall, the referee for the
teams, certainly deserves credit for the
way in which he handled the game last
night, and his decisions were perfectly
satisfactory to both teams. On many
occasions it was left to the referee and
not once was he partial to either side.
Another one of those interesting
games will be played next Thursday
evening when the East Chicago team
Will endeavor to break the winning
streak of the Baptist club. The game

Chief on Case.

Chief Martin this morning began to
work on the case and it was learned
that about ten days ago the three men
had Tony Wilotz. a brother of the in
jured man, arrested for assault. Wilotz
was fined and as they were leaving the
court room, Wilotz swore at the men
and said that some time the two
brothers would get even with them 1t
is thought that the bur men met last
night and quarrel ensued in which
the three men pounced upon their vic
tim and beat him up.
A trail of blood on the white snow
could be seen for about fifty yards
where the men dragged Wilotz's body
to the street car tracks. 1t is not
thought Wilotz's injuries will prove
fatal.
The preliminary hearing of the three
men was held this morning and they
are being held pending Wilotzs re-
covery.

BRUTAL

OCCURS
Gary Is Scene of Violent
Affair Last Night Man
Is Knocked Insensible
and Put on Car Tracks to
Be Run Over.

One of the most brutal and murder
Gus assaults that has taken place in
Gary for many months occurred last
night near Twenty second and Wash
ington street, when three foreigners
attacked Mia Wilotz, and after beat
ing him into insensibility they placed
him on the car tracks with the hopes
that car would run over him and
cover up their brutal work
William Uhe, the gateman for the
Pennsylvania railroad was the man
who discovered Wilotz on the street
car tracks. If it had not been for the
fact that the last car had been in the
barns the three men would probably
ahve accomplished their murderous
purpose.
Was Unconscious.
When Uhe found Wilotz the man was
unconscious and nearly frozen His
head was a mass of cuts and bruises
and the Waterman at first thought a
car had run over him. The uncon-
scious man was picked up and taken
to a nearby house where his identity
was learned and his brother. Tony
Wilotz. was sent for.
The local police station was noti-
fed and Captain Gus Newman and sew
eraI officers were dispatched in the
patrol to the scene and Wilotz was
later taken to the Mercy hospital where
DIR. Faulds dressed his injuries. The
mans head was bruised so badly thai
it was necessary to take twelve stitches
in his head.
A short time afterward Wilotz gained
consciousness and a few facts concern.
ing the assault were learned He gave
the names of his assailants and by the
effective work of the police the three
men were arrested. They are: Mix.
