DUNBAR IN STAR ROLE
CenterviIIe, 27; Richmond. 26.

Before a large crowd that packed
the gallery and filed the sidelines at
the "Y' gym Saturday night, the
Richmond high school team went
down to defeat at the hands of the
Centerville quintet by the score of
y to 26, in the classiest, fastest and
best played exhibition of basketball
ever staged on the local floor
The game was hard fought through
out. From the toss-up half to the
final whistle there was no letup of
furious scramble after the sphere
Captain Thornburg drew first blood
for the Red and White, on intercept
ing long pass and lodging a pair
of guards, he Gagged the ball from the
middle of the floor. A minute later.
however, Dunbar, speedy forward, of
the visitors, shot a perfect field goal
tieing the score.
From this point on the score went
back and forth. At no time was one
side more than four points ahead of
the other. At the end of the first
half the Center township outfit had
the advantage having annexed Is
points to but IA for the Red and
White.
The second half was a repetition of
the first. With but one minute to
play and the score standing 26 to 90,
Referee Harrington called a foul on
Meranda for holding; the fans boot
ing the decision. On the free throw
Hort Gagged the sphere, giving the
Center township outfit a one point
lead. A second later the game ended.
Dunbar Shows Class.
Dunbar, of the winners. was the
individual point maker OF the contest,
trapping five baskets Hort and Stew
ems ran him a close second with nine
and eight points, respectively. Cap
tain King and Bertsch did some stel-
lar guarding, being big factors in Cen
terville's victory.

streak of the Earlham basketball team
here Saturday night when in a fast
and spectacular game the Quakers
won by the score of 10 to II.
The Quakers outplayed their oppo-

ing so alright that the state crew fail
ed to get a single field goal The first

Steel Armor For Passengers.


Americans are always looking for
machine to save our lives because We
have no time TO save them ourselves
by hand To get the simplest safe
guards for life and limb introduced in
to factories using dangerous machinery
took an enormous amount OF political
agitation Though the first blame for
unguarded dangerous machinery rests
on the employer, there is no question
that workmen themselves take quite
lightly the+risks involved.
Trolley companies are finding 1t ex-
pedient to adopt type Of vehicle that
is Theoretically sealed when in motion.
In order to prevent reckless citizens
from jumping on and off moving cars
Stout chains and guards are necessary
to keep impatient ferry passengers
from throwing themselves into the wa
ter at each end OF the trip. The annual
railroad slaughter is appalling: but the
frs, analysis of the figures shows that
la great proportion OF those killed are
trespaesers who should not have been
on the tracks at all, or being there
should certainly have kept vigilant
watch for trains.
Just now we are insisting on all-steel
cars, which are no better than any
other cars until after collision or
derailment caused by human CARELESS
ness has occurred. This IS more or
less like dressing pedestrians in motor
proof steel armor. instead OF requiring
both chauffeurs and pedestrians to go
circumspectly.
OF course all-steel cars are good and
should finally be the only sort used on
passenger trains, hut to supplant the
present wooden cars with steel one viii
