Looking Through
The Coliseum Hoops

A full house was in on the program.
Fully 5000 fans were among those
present.
It was R. Fl. S. talent that started
the evening. The same brand finished
it. Brown and Pitts, former R. H. S.
stars started it. R. H. S. finished it.
Without Brown and Pitts, Earlham
would have been in the class with the
proverbial article of mems apparel,
sans collar button.
All of the old time r. H. S. enthus-
iasm was back in the fold. And the
Earlham rooter colony helped some.
Not since William Jennings Bryan
appeared on the Coliseum platform
back in '0S has a like volume of noise
been unleashed in Richmond.
That R. H. S. had the corner on
Muncie at every angle was the COM
mon opinion.
The breaks were against Richmond
in the first. Muncie shared the hard
luck in the final.
To individualize credit would be do
ing the R. H. S. squad an injustice.
The whole team starred.
Muncie's delegation, represented by
the NJ. H. S. principal, congratulated
Principal Pickell.
"He said Richmond had the best
team in the state outside of Muncie,"
said Mr.. Pickell
Anyway, the Muncie principal is
loyal to himself.

How Earlham's
Rioters Return
High Support
fSport Editorjaj,)

Most friendly relations have existed
this season between rooters for Earl
ham and for Richmond when teams OF
the two institutions have played bas-
ket-ball at the same time.
Supporters Of the high school who
compose, at least, two thirds OF the
crowd have cheered the Earlham
teams with vigorous applause and by
giving the college yells.
In turn the collegians have backed
the high school boys against their
opponents.
That is, they did until last night,
when for some unaccountable reason
the majority of the Earlham men, with
the exception of day dodgers from
Richmond-high school alumni-turn-
ed on R. H. S. and pulled for a Muncie
victory. They even rode" some Of
the high school players with haunting
remarks.
High School Needed Support.
If Richmond High ever needed the
united support Of the roofing delega-
ton it was last night.
True, the r. H. s. team has defeat.
ed the collegians in several practice
games, but even at that, the local root
ers have the utmost respect for Brown
and Pitts and the rest Of the Quaker
'eam and pulled hard for an Earlham
victory last night. There was not
high school supporter who did not ap-
plaud vigorously every one Of Earl
hams good plays, in the curtain raiser.
In return for this fine show of
o1cbfo Munc;o pirhp,opd,e m.
ponent, received the endorsement of
Earlham's most enthusiastic rooters.
The Franklin-Earlham game was the
last appearance Of the local college
five on the home floor.

BRINGS THE NEWS 0F SHIP DISASTER
Captain Of LuckenbaCh Tells Of the Torpedoin8 of His Vessel

New York, Nov. 1.-The first news of the sinking of the American steam snip D. N. Luckenbach on Oct 27 off the French coast, with the loss of five of her crew, was brought to an At- lantic port yesterday by Captain Gus Smith and twenty-three survivors of the crew, who arrived on a Danish steamship which rescued them from their nfeboats after they had been battling with the wind and seq for forty eight hours.
 Details of the torpedoing of tho steamship were given by the captain to the agents of the Luckenbach Steamship company. At noon on Oct. 27 the D. N. Luokenbach was steam ing about II knots, he said, when she was struck by a torpedo on the star board side abaft the funnel. The torpedo was launched from on un- seen submarine. The explosion pro- sumably killed five members of the engine room crew outright, as they were not seen again. The steam ship foundered stern first in. about twenty minutes.
 The five men killed were Fred Ol- sen, second assistant engineer, a nat uralized Norwegian, whose next kin is George Olsen, father, of Freder- ickstad, Norway; A. Pena, third assist ant engineer, whose wife lives at S63 East Thirty-third ~street, Brook lyn; Domois Chromis, fireman; Bemis Evangelous, oiler, and Peter Vallianos, oiler.
 There was a rough sea running, with a strong breeze, which made 1t difficult to launch the lifeboats and get them clear away from the ships side. The captain said that there were plenty of provisions and water in the boats. but the men suffered much from exposure during the two days before they were picked up by the Danish steamship.
 The reason no report of the tor pedoing was received previously was that the survivors were picked up by a west-bound steamship and there was no opportunity to communicate tho news to an American or British war ship. Captains of merchant vessels have strict orders not to use their wireless apparatus at sea as the messages could be picked up by enemy submarines.
 The D. N. Luckenbach left New York on Oct. 13 with 5000 tons of cargo for the Allies, which went down with the ship. She was an iron single

 built at Newcastle on Tyne in 1SS1 a1S
 the LAllburn Tower for taA' Chinas trade and later became the 9panishs steamship Pedro. She was captured in the Spanish-Amer1can war and her name was changed to Hector. After her purchase by the Luckonbach company the vessel was renamed D. N Luckenbach. Two other vessels owned by the 1 same company have had encountefai recently with German submarineA. l The Lewis Luckenbach was torpedood l and sunk early in October with the. 1 loss of a naval gunner and nine Of
 her crew. and on Oct. 19 the J. L. ] Luckenbach was saved from . sirni-
 lar fate by an American destroyer af- ter a gun duel which lasted four 1 hours. In the fight between tho ! steamship and the submarine two of l the American naval gunners and seven
 of the crew Of the J. L.. Luckenbach were wounded. :.
