it is nevertheless pleasing to note that

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 19.-Af-

the greater part of the game, Earl
ham college was defeated by the
Christians last Saturday, 6 to o.
With lookout out of the game on
account of injuries, the Earlham pass
ing machine failed to work properly
and except on line plunges, the Quak-
ers failed to make any consistent
gains The field was ideal for pass
ing game, but neither Pitts, who was
substituting for lookout, or Mills,
who have been out of the game with
injuries for two weeks, were able to
take any OF the passes made by the
Quaker backs.
A forward pass, across the Earl
ham goal line in the last few minutes
of play, gave Butler its only touch
donv and the game. Earlham's line
was tighter than it has been for some
time, and few Christian plunges were
effective

With the Second Liberty Loan fin

made by two banks:

Are you game enough to try?
Please let us have prompt reply.

The Bowling Team of our STRONG
EST BANK
Made up of short, tall lean and lank,
Accepts the challenge of Dickinson
Trust.
And will retaliate for their awful crust
So if you you're not too full Of fright
Show up at TWIGG'S next Wednesday
night,
And at the hour of half past four
With the old D. T. we'll wipe the floor
Accepted
On Wednesday we will be on hand
Accompanied by our female band
And other rooters who'll be there
Prepared to cheer eacn strike or spare
Produced by our unerring aim.
We are SO sure We'll win the game
That we suggest the losers pay
The cost of the entire fray,
And when the final pin is down,
Why shouldn't we remain up town
And go to see our good friend GUY
And eat some steak or oyster fry
Or we'd not scorn a turkey roast
Since the STRONGEST BANK" will
be the host.

Reserve Rights of
Minors Suspended by
War Are Protected

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 19.-Con-
tracts of minor league clubs with base
ball players for the season of 1918 will
contain special clause protecting the
reserve rights of those clubs or
leagues which are forced to suspend
by reason OF war conditions.
The purpose of the clause, it is said,
il to protect minor leagues against
losses such as were incurred when
several circuits were forced to sus-
pend during the last season. Clubs
belonging to these leagues were fore
ed to sit by and see their best players
taken by clubs in other leagues with
out receiving even the waiver price
for their services.

recently the referee of a game where

game began Marshall announced that
he was going to penalize the rough

first play brought the promised pen

large roar from the offenders. Mar

next play he penalized the team again.

going to be penalized on the next
play, too" And from that point on
