Rowe's Team Faces Stiff
Game Tonight.

Abe Rowe and his squad of all-star
basketball chasers left this afternoon
on the 455 for their invasion of Mid
dletown, Ohio, where the local team
will meet the strong independent five
of that place tonight
Six men made the trip-Rowe and
Logan, forwards; Harrington, center;
Fitzgibbons, Schepman and Caster,
guards. Rowe and Logan, who worked
together on the Earlham five will
cause trouble for the Buckeye defense
men, while Jim Harrington is expect
ed to hold down his end Of the argu-
ment. In "Irish' F'itzgibbons, Spot
Schepman and "Emry' Caster, the
Richmond crew is well fixed In the
guarding department.
That Middletown has one of the fast
est quintetS in the Buckeye state is
certain. A month ago the local "Y"
team met this team and was barely
able to nose out the Ohioans by four
point margin. Since that time the
Middletown outfit has met some
strong teams and it is the opinion of
"Dopey' Erik, former Richmond
man, who now leads the team, that
Rowe's men are up against a drubbing
tonight.

WIVES ARE CRUEL,

Two of three divorces granted in cir

their wives treated them cruelty and
then deserted them One was William
Harvey Grant who was given a decree
against Mary Ellen Grant and the Gus

other was Claude Scott who was given
divorce from his wife, Elva Scott.
The third divorce granted was to Mar

itual drunkard and of being cruel and
inhuman in his treatment towards
her. She was given the custody of
two children. Devices was the only

NEW YORK GIANTS
LOOK LIKE WINNERS
DOpeSters See 1914 Pennant
Swinging Over Park For
the Fourth Time.

NEW YORK, March est looks
just now as if the New York Giants
will grab off the 1914 pennant in the
National league. thereby turning the
trick that no team in modern base
ball has been able to winning a
pennant four times in row.
The Phillies, looked upon as being
all the way to the wire, have been
shot to pieces by the invading Fed
erals. With Seaton and Brennan now
performing in Federal uniforms, the
Phillies' pitching strength is at least
IS per cent weaker than it was at the
close of the 1913 season.
The action of Second BaSeman Otto
knabe, and ShOrtstOp DoOlan in going
over to the Feds has wrecked the
inner breatsworks of the Phillies, and
Manager Doom has no one among his
recruits that looks able enough to
jump into the vacated boots and per
form in real style.
Cubs Not Dangerous.
The Cubs are not looked upon to
furnish any real trouble this season.
The Cubs in the old days stacked up
as one or the best aggre cations IN
baseball history. But the going of
Tinker, Chance, Evers, Brown, Reul
bach. and a few of the other stars has
reduced the outfit to little more than
a second division organization.
Pittsburg, and possibly the Boston
Braves, are the only teams that loom
up just now as strong enough to
keckle the Giants. The Pirates seem
to have been greatly strengthened in
the infield by the trade with the Car
dinals, but the showing of the club
depends quite lot on what the pitch
ers will do. If the hurlers can strike
a steady stride at the start of the
season and keep it up, Wagner, Viox,
Mowry, ct al, may be counted upon
to do their share in the uplift work.
The Giants pitching staff sizes up
as the best in the league. Mathew
son, Marquard, Demaree and Tesreau
constitute quartet that seem to have
enough skill and power to grab off
about 20 per cent of their games. In
addition to this quartet the New York
ers have a few new Fingers who may
breeze along at winning gait-and
who may not. At any rate, they'll get
a chance to show their wares during
the summer, and if they succeed in
annexing at least half of their games,
and the big four" shows up to stand
ard. the Giants ought to rom home
with an average of .615--a mighty
husky one for the other cOntenders to
shoot at.

HAGERSTOWN. Ind, March 28-
Hagerstown high school basketball
five lost its first game on the home
floor this season last night when the
Iroquois team Of Richmond took home
the big end of a 1920 count
The visitors were the fastest seen
here for years. From the first whistle
1t was evident that the Hagerstown
boys had met their match as the To-
Gals never had a look-in for the lead.
Richmond was on the offensive at all
times, while Hagerstown strove only
to keep down the score.
Richmond scored 10 points in the
first half to but for Hagerstown
Richmonds markers this half were
due to the brilliant work of Webb and
Kampe, each registering three fields.
On the other hand the locals Tailed
but twice for field goals, due to the
alright work of Parker and Pitts of
the county seat bunch.
The Iroquois continued their pace
in the second frame. Kampe again
was the big factor in the score of his
team, trapping five baskets. Working
center for the locals, came to the fore
this half with four ringers, which
swelled the Hagerstown count to the
20 mark at the shot.
Every man of the visiting team dis
played form. Kampe, Webb and Por
ter proved a trio of offensive men
that had the local guards guessing all
the time, while Parker and Pitts
shone in the defensive. Working did
the best work for the losers.
