tonight when they will line up against
East Chicago at Crown Point in the
new high school gymnasium. East Chi
cago ran away from Crown Point in
their last game. but the Hub scholars
hope to turn the trick tonight on their

Point has been without a coach this
season they have made a good show

disappointed if he is not the winner
Murphy even declares it is greatly

will score a knockout over the former
