TOWN SETS AN EXAMPLE
Pledges Itself to Go WheatIess Until
Harvest.

Bristol, city of 10000 people, sit
uated In both Virginia and Tennessee,
has. pledged itself to go wheatless
until harvest, in order that the abso-
lutte needs of the allies may be met
from Americas meager store. Five
large mills, fifty wholesale and retail
grocers, all hotels and scores of pa
triOtic citizens have turned in their
entire stocks for the use of the gov
eminent, and have pledged themselves
to use no more until the present need
has passed. No more wheat flour will
be sold, and the entire output of the
mills is to be placed at the disposition
of the food administration.

Would Richmond people recommend

they confirm their statements after

EARlHAm AND
FRANKLIN PLAY
IN AFTERNOON
College Basketball Teams
Meet in Important Game
Saturday.

The Earlham basketball aggregation
will meet the fast Franklin five in a
I. c. A. L. basketball contest on the
Coliseum floor Saturday afternoon al
$3.50 o'clock.
Franklin basketball fans are pre-
dieting the game will be one of the
deciding games in the Indiana college
athletic league championship. They
say if Franklin wins this game Coach
Thurber's men have an excellent
chance for the /. c. A. L.
Although Franklin has only two let
ter men on the varsity Coach Thurber
has been busy this season turning out
a team that is running strong at pres
ent. The old Franklin men are Ross,
forward, and Campbell. floor guard.
All Of EN- Practice
Coaches Lewis and Move are put
ting the finishing touches to the Earl
ham squad and fee! that Earlham now
has q well organized basketball five
to represent the school this seson.
The full squad has been out to prac-
tees all this week and the men are
showing the efforts of Coach Moves
experienced hand in passing shooting
and signal plays.
Owing to the fact that the game
will be played in the afternoon with
out light, starting at 2:30, the cur.
tain raiser game has been cancelled
because the two games would run it
too late to see to play. It is probable
that another game will be scheduled
between pete" Hayward's second "Y''
basketball team and the Earlham
freshmen.
The men who will prabably repre-
sent Earlham Saturday are as fol-
lows: Pontius, Brown and Jessup, for.
wards, Edwards and Pitts, center,
Meeks and Johnson, guards.
The change in the time for the game
is approved by Mayor Zimmerman,

supervisor for Earlham
