EARLHAM LOSES

TO NORMALITES
Quakers Expect to- Break
Even on Trip by Taking
Baptist Quintet at Frank
lin-LOgan Stars.

Earlham met defeat at the hands OF
Indiana State Normal Friday evening
at Terre Houte, the game ending with
the score of ~ to 81. The Quakers
were severely handicapped in their
team work on account of tha floor.
gymnasium which has two posts i'm
mediately in front of the goals. Logan,
who in previous games has been the
star forward for the Quakers, was So
completely covered by Wanr, the Nor
NAL guard, that he was unable to make
a field goal Winslow, however, broke
away for four field goals. His playing
was the feature of the game. Stiffler
and Shenk, the two Normal forwards,
also played fast games. Johnson at
guard was the mainstay OF the Qua
kers' defense and prevented the score
from being run up to a much larger
number by the fast Normal forwards.
Because of the fact that Logan was
completely covered by the Normal
guard, the team work of the Quakers
was practically cut to pieces. Be-
cause of the nature of the floor, It
was impossible to make long shots at
the goal on the part Of either team.
Because of their much superior team
work the Teachers had little trouble
in working the ball to within strlk-
ing distance of the goal.
A large number of fouls was called
on both teams, and eleven Of the points
for Earlham were made by free throws.

DARKEN GRAY HAIR.
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Grandma's recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur darkens SO naturally
that nobody can tell.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray; also ends dandruff, itch
ing scalp and stops falling hair Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays.
by asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get large bottle of
this famous old recipe for about so
cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it, No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time: by morning the gray
hair disappears. and after another ap
plication or two, Your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy.

BALL CLUB MEETS
IN ANNUAL SESSION

The Richmond Baseball Association
will hold the annual meeting tomor-
row afternoon. Just what will come
up is a matter Of much speculation to
the fans and the outcome is being
eagerly watched. The baseball field
will probably come in for its share of
attention as it is badly in need of re-
pairs, especially the buildings.
The meeting will be more in the ma
ture of a get-together affair to talk
over plans and policy upon which the
club will be run the coming winter.
Prospective players which Dick Ken
ney has lined up and the makeup of
the program will also be brought up
for consideration.
1t is understood that several Of the
members would like to see arrange
ments brought to head with Muncie,
Greenville. Ohio, Connersville, New
Castle. Rushville and the local club
as a Sunday league.

SCORE VICTORY
AT WINCHESTER
Lanky Center Plays All
Around Opposing Defense
Looping Ball for Twelve
POints-Brown Helpless.

The high school basketball team got
underway again last night and took
the Winchester five into camp by the
score of IS to 4.
Winchester put up far better de-
Tense than in the previous game with
the result that but one man on the
local five could accomplish anything
in the scoring line, that being Al
Laning, the lanky center, who alone
and unaided made twelve Of the team S
points. AIS work was the bright part
of the evenings entertainment, his
play being far above that shown by
the opposing center. Brown, who was
such terror to the Winchester lads
in the previous game, was q watched
man from beginning to end, and just
how well he was watched is shown on
the score sheet that he was able to
make but one goal from the field.
The game was unusually clean, but
ten fouls being called. Richmond's
guards showed to excellent advantage,
especially in the first half, when the
Winchester boys were unable TO make
a single point Laning was the game
for the locals in the first half, when
he easily tossed five field goals, and
from that time on Richmond merely
played with the opponents, passing
all around them with apparent ease. In
the second half Harris went in for Por-
ter, but had no better luck in hitting
the basket than Clarence did, which
was pretty poor. as Clarence did not
make point. Richmond scored six
in this half while Winchester made
four points. Score:
