so that the wall on the outside can be
pargeted below the grade line by the mason
as the wall is built. The mason charges
little or nothing for this and It means that
the entire wall under the grade is coated
over to a fairly even surface with cement.
This prevents surface water from soaking
through the wall into the basement. There

Kelly Asserts Spirit of Friendship
of Earlham Toward High School

President r. l.. Kelly OF Earlham
college today sent letter to Principal
Frank G. Pickell regarding charges re-
Gently made that great many OF Earl
hams rooters supported the Muncie
team in its game with Richmond at the
Coliseum Friday night.
The letter follows:
l have taken quite great deal OF
time in investigating the alleged dis
courtesy of the Earlham men in the
Richmond Muncie basket ball game
Friday evening. I have interviewed
quite number of the members OF the
faculty who were at the game, and also
a number OF representative students.
Almost all of them express surprise
that anyone got the idea that the Earl
ham men were roofing against Rich
mond: in fact everybody l have inter
viewed says it is not true there was
any concerted movement on the part
OF the Earlham men In favor of Mum
Gle as against Richmond.
Deny Notice Of Such Conduct.
Most of the people I have inter
viewed say they noticed nothing of
leader did not start or carry out any
thing that would have reflected In any
way upon the Richmond high school,
and I find that many students did yell
consistently for the high school
also find that there were during
the game groups of Earlham students
who applauded good plays made by
Muncie and that in some instances
these groups may even have appeared
to be applauding for Muncie as against
Richmond. One Of our most level
headed men tells me that there was a
feeling among some Of our men that
it would in the end be no loss to the
Richmond high school to lose game,
as it would result perhaps in their
coming out stronger in the end and
winning an enviable place in the tour
nament
You will perhaps think it is scarce
ly function Of the college men to be
in this way to guide the
destinies of the Richmond high school
basket ball team, but am reporting
to you exactly what have discovered
among our fellows.
This man l refer to said that this
yelling for Muncie was done absolute
ly without any bitterness toward Rich
mond and with the hope that In the
long run it would be the best thing for

ing OF resentment or bitterness among

Interpretation upon any apparently an

Cured among our fellows last Friday
night. For I am able to assure you
that the college as whole does stand
for the Richmond high school, is proud
of its achievements and is greatly
gratified at the progress which is made
here by the large number OF students
who come from Richmond.
We are not unmindful of the fact
that the present basket ball team is
strengthened tremendously by Rich
mond high school men now members
of the college, and the good-natured or
even the unthoughted manifestations
of approval of the work Of another
team should not be construed as
manifestation of antagonis1n or bitter.
ness towards your school.
Believes Impression Unjust.
I of course have not been able to in
terview each individual student who
was present, but l do feel that the
impression that has gone forth that
Earlham was opening and definitely
working against your high school is
not justified by the fact do not
doubt for moment but that you will
take the proper view regarding this
matter. and I hope that you will at
tempt to have your students do the
same thing.
P. Slater: Mr. Payne. our yell
leader. tells me that there was group
of five or six Earlham men, two of
whom come from Muncie, and which
had about 1t some other people not
students Of Earlham, who were the
most boisterous devotees of the cause
of Muncie. OF course no one could
blame the Muncie men and their
friends for yelling for the home team.

Rustlings of the Netting

The noise of the Richmond delega-
ton was the real feature of the even
ing.
New Castles tendency to take what
it considered a sure shot, didn't do the
Richmond hackers a bit of harm,
financially speaking.
After that first goal, Blount was in
vincible. Duggan admitted it when
he took a slam at the wainscotting
instead of giving Blount another stop.
Harkens, too, would only shoot
from behind the Richmond goal.
And then Blount apologized for
that one.
Blount's average in the six games
ne has figured in is lowering around
the 1915 mark.
