HERB|E LOGAN PILOTS
0uAkERS TO VICTORY
over CHRIST CHURCH

Fast and spectacular is a time-worn,
overworked phrase, but it serves to
describe the 51-27 argument taken by
the Quakers of Richmond. from the
speed merchants of Christ Church, Gin
cinnati A speedier game than that
follow-up offering to the WaynetOwn-
Richmond affair at the Coliseum last
night is a quantity not forthcoming in
this region every seven days.
From start of play the QuakerCin-
cinnati mix-up was one brilliant flare
of speed work Both teams appeared
| in the pink and both aggregations
were out with no idea of dropping the
battle. Although the Queen City crowd
showed brilliant flashes of team and
individual play, the local team had it
on the visitors from the first jump,
and only the dogged efforts of the
c. c. C. outfit kept the team in the
running.
The outstanding feature of the game
was the comeback performance of
Herb Logan, of Earlham basketball
fame. For the greater part of the
season Herb has been doing mediocre
work. His playing has not been any
thing like in days of yore, when an
an account of field goals running up
in the double digits was to be ex-
pected
Last night Logan revived to old
time form. His floor work, his basket
shooting. his passing and all around
performance was a revelation to the
big gathering of fans. Thirty-one
points, representing ten field goals and
eleven foul goals sums up the work
of the former Quaker light.
And after giving Logan his just de-
serts the fact that the rest of the
team "also played must not be over
looked. Every member of the team
from Lengthy Al Laning to Ray Dismal
Jones played to form.
With the exception of the first few
minutes of play. when the Cincy crew
by virtue of field and free point bas-
kets, enjoyed a brief lead, the Quakers
lead from the start. But after the
Quaker machine, with Logan at the
wheel, once gained momentum, there
was no stopping till the final shot.
The score:

HAM wins
FROM FRANKLIN

FRANKLIN, Ind, Feb 19-The
seasons surprise Of the l. c. A. L. was
staged last night at Franklin, when
the Earlham college team playing a
whirlwind game slipped up on the un-
suspecting Baptists and escaped with
the 24-17 set of figures. The game
was perhaps the best seen on the local
court this season and though the local
team lost was interesting to one of
the largest crowds ever attending a
basketball game here.
Fay Winslow, center of the Quaker
team, played a great game and it was
largely through his efforts that the
Franklinites were set back with the
minority. The speedy center of the
fiaroon and White trapped six field
goals and was bear" at all around
offensive work. Meeks, Templin and
Bundy were other Quaker stars.
For Franklin Vandiver, forward,
played-the most consistent game.

Locals Turn Trick.
Make it thirty" rejoined the wear
led Brownie.
At the Coliseum last night, just six
weeks after the game at WaynetoWn,
while members OF the Richmond high
school team were being congratulated
for the 40 to 10 victory over w. II. .,
at least two members of the local five
were disappointed, to say the least.
We'll, we didn't make it twenty-five
Brownie" 1t was c. Porter talking.
YES. and we didn't make it thirty,
either" rejoined the stocky captain.
But we did make it a twenty-one
majority" chimes in Roland "Cutey
Dollins. comedian and star sub cen
ter of the team. 80 what's the use or
croaking. Amt Al to 10 a pretty good
score 1t suits me, anyhow con-
tinued he of lengthy proportions
And that settled it. Whether every
member of the Richmond team was
satisfied with the 40 to 10 total rolled
up against the invaders matters little
TO every one of the some two thousand
fans and fanesses who were with the
r. II. S. every minute during that
rapid fire argument.
Local Five OF Form.
True, Richmond high should have
defeated Waynetown by a considerably
larger majority. The proteges of Nohr
have played better games this season.
But at that every member OF the team
was in the game to give his best And
that best was sufficient to attend
to the needs of the Translate host.
Close guarding work of the rival
faction made it appear at times that
the game was slow. Guards of both
teams with instructions to smother
certainly were fulfilled to the digit.
Pitts and Meranda, Richmond guard
detail, was. however. more effective
than the Henderson Switzer combine
as statistics on the score sheet lndi-
cate.
In full justice to the Waynetown
team it might be said that the group OF
youngsters making up the crew are as
clever, clean, speedy and game a set
of leather tossers as have worked on
the Coliseum floor this season.
AS per press notices, Forwards Reu-
ben Merrill proved the bright spot in
the visiting lineup. He of the extern
sive reputation was responsible for
thirteen of his teams total of nineteen.
For Richmond, G. Porter proved an
individual light. His seven field bas-
kets combined with consistent floor
work we're factors bearing on the vic
tory of the Richmond high. The score:

Will you kindly find space in your paper Tor the

Mr.. Duning terms our boys "Polo Hopes"
1t though the polo hopes so called have
caused Munce to change her lineup three different
times. Early in the they annexed Fahrner then
Kid Williams and now Mr.. Newton. 1t seems that Mum
Gle felt her inability to compete with poo hopes

that Pence had 46 stops and OMetz 3d. and that

Because she is his Fatherland and he would naturally
