QUAkERS WALK AWAY
FROM ANTIOCH TEAM
IN SLOW NET GAME

Experiencing little difficulty in de-
feating their lighter opponents, the
Earlham basketball team rcmped over
the Antioch aggregation to the tune OF
soo-14 in the opening game of the sea-
son at the coliseum. Friday night. At
no time during the game were the
Quakers in danger of being headed.
That the strength of the Ohio five
had been greatly overestimated was
evident after the first few minutes OF
play. They were obviously unable to
fathom the method of attack used by
Moves men and settled down into a
dogged attempt to keep the score from
mounting too rapidly.
. The game was slowed up by repeat
ed substitutions as Move took advant
age of the new rules and used every
man on the squad, trying out a new
combination every few minutes, vir.
tually turning the game into a practice
session for his men. The score con
tinued to climb with regularity after
the second stringers had been put in
Thirteen men were used by the Quak
er mentor during the fray
No Stars Brought Out.
No outstanding individual stars
were brought out during the game as
practically every man on the Quaker
team came across with his share OF
the markers. Captain Lawler opened
up the scoring with a shot from the
side after the first minute of play.
Carey, the lankey center, soon follow
ed his example and after this the
scoring continued with monotinuous
regularity. Even Johnson, who rarely
tries shot at the meetings dropped
one through from the middle OF the
floor.
After 10 minutes of play Goar was
substituted for Hall and shortly after
Hadley went in for Beck. Before the
close of the half, Townsend replaced
Carey at center, Beasloy went in for
Johnson at back guard, and C. Kellum
took LAWYERS place. The Antioch
quintet was unable to make any pro.
gress against the scrubs and at the
close of the half had scored only one
field goal.
Scrubs Show Up.
The second half opened with the
scrubs still representing Earlham.
Fades and Sellars replaced Townsend
and Kellum. Each put up a good

Antioch quintet took squirt during
the last few minutes and rang up four
lcng shots.

Goar tied for second honors with

though their defence was not given a
real test, it promises to hold it's own
