ELY SEEMS 0EkJOY
ROSY C0MPLACENCY

That Fly is looking with rosy COM
placehcy upon her prospects for be-
coming the center of a great oil in
dustry, is indicated by the following
from the last issue Of the Ely Rec
ord. which seems to challenge Fallon
for distinction:
Now that it seems reasonably GER
tain that commercial oil will be de-
veloped at Illipah within the next
few months, or possibly weeks, the
future OF Ely as the center of far
reaching oil development is among
the probabilities of the near future.
The Illipah field has not as yet been
positively proven, but developments
are of such a favorable nature as to
leave but little II any doubt in the
minds of those who are familiar with
the district, that it already has passed
the critical stage and is almost GER
tain to develop into a large and steady
producer.
And this being the case, there is
little doubt that the Oil fields OF
White River, forty miles southwest
of Ely. and the Cave Valley fields,
sixty miles southeast Of Ely, will also
be tested out in the near future.
Both of these fields have been favor
ably reported on in years past, and
in both fields companies have been
organized to commence drilling early
in the spring.
In addition to these. ii is known
that there are other fields in the east
ern portion of White Pine county
which also will receive attention from
as soon as commercial oil has
been thoroughly demonstrated at
Illipah.
After a field has been proven there
is no trouble to finance new enter
prises for the same district. In fact,
'oil money is the only kind of money
that can now be had for the asking,
provided, of course, the district has
already made good. And this being
the case. a genuine oil boom may be
expected to center over and around
this section during the coming year.
1t is yet too early to make positive
statements, but for all practical pur-
poses it would seem that at least one
field in this county is assured, pro-
vided 1t receives the encouragement
in a financial way that it is entitled
70 for the showings already made.
During the past ten years the Ely
has contributed hundreds of
of dollars toward develop
nent of oil fields in Texas, Oklahoma
and California, and had this money
been spent at home 1t would no doubt
Iong ago have had u various fields
and also one of the most
prosperous communities in the West
srn country.
Oil enterprises now have the call
over all other investments. and as
ong as u people are making such
Investments it would be we'll for them
% give the home companies their
preference.

Real Baseball or None For
Richmond is Fans Ultimatum

Every fan in this community will
have an opportunity to aid in putting
Richmond back on the baseball map,
and it will be up to the fans entirely
to accomplish this.
Plans for a campaign to raise funds
for supporting league club here next
season will be announced early next
week. Under many of the plans pro-
posed for financing league club here,
every fan will be able to do his bit,
and it rests entirely on fans willing
ness whether the park on East Main
street, conceded to be one Of the best
baseball parks in Indiana, will be kept
up and supplied with real baseball or
dismantled and turned into pasture
again.
Men interested in the old baseball
league are determined that Richmond
will have real baseball here next sea-
son, or none at all. If fans of the city
refuse to support league club here,
according to officials of the old Exhibit
ton company, the park will not be
kept up.
No "Rush League Stuff"
Interest in baseball here is strong"
q director said Saturday, but it is not
strong for bush league stuff, and the
directors are not willing to use the
park for bush league stuff that fans
are not interested in. If we can't have
real baseball here, the park will be
torn down."
Interest in the plan for financing
league baseball is growing constantly.
and hackers of the proposed league
have little doubt but that finance
campaign can be carried out success
fully if every fan in the city is ready
to do his share.
In many Of the factories where in
refractory league baseball has been

Richmond safely passed the second
test of the basketball tourney at New
Castle by defeating Middletown p to
a Friday night. Coach Fries put Dol
Inns, who had been out of the game for
more than a month with sore feet, at
back guard and Price at floor guard.
This bulky guard combination com
pletely smothered all Middletown of
fensive work and kept Richmond for
wards supplied with shots at the bas-
ket.
Harkins played a stellar offensive
game for the Red and White, caging
seven field baskets. Wilson shifted
to forward, came in for two field
markers and tossed three out of four
foul chances. Monger was substituted
for Price in the last ten minutes and
tossed two field goals.
Middletown managed to connect
with but one foul goal in the first
half. which ended Is to l.

HENDRIX, GREATEST
BATTER IN Minors,
MAY GO BACK Up

Tim HendryX, who has valid claim
to the distinction of being the greatest
minor league batting leader now out
side the majors, is wondering what
uniform he will wear next season He
hopes it will be the uniform Of a
National league club. He is now at
New Orleans while some major league
clubs are dickerng with the Louis
vile owners for the player.
Tim hasn't much luck sticking in
the majors. Since he was sold by
New Orleans to the New York Yanks
back in the fall of 1915, he has made
two trips 10 the majors and two back
to the minors, and is now looking for
ward to the third trip up. He has
served with two clubs, the Yanks and
Browns, but has yet to try his luck
in the national league.
AS q minor Lacquer Tim certainly Is
one little James Dandy. He has a
penchant for leading minor leagues in
hitting, and probably is the only ball
player who has the distinction of hav-
ing led both the Southern Associca-
ton and American association, two of
the fastest minor leagues, with the
willow.
HendryX's average in the American
he ever made A 36S average in
league like the American association
is enough to impress any big league
manager. 1t shows him to be a better
hitter than when he topped the 1915
Southern league batters with 1926.
Hal Chase recently left the east for
California. He has decided, it is said,
to retire from baseball and will not
play first base for the Giants. Chase
received a new contract from the
New York National league club re-
Gently, but he has turned it down, de-
claring that he intended going into
business on the coast
George Kelly will be the Giants
regular first baseman instead of
Chase. Kelly is a nephew of Big
Bill Lange, once the best player in
the National league. He played good
ball as a member of the Rochester
team before joining the Giants in Sep
TENDER, and McGraw believes that he
will come through.
Chase is thirty-seven years old and
probably would have slipped further
down the ladder of fame had he re-
manned with McGraw. He began to
show signs of going back last sum-
mer and evidently decided to get out
of the game before a complete failure.
Once Chase was the greatest of first
basemen. Foolish behavior was re-
snonsible for troubles in which he
was frequently entangled.

With the Quaker basketball team off
the sport pages and into history. the
call for track and field candidates
Monday is expected to bring response
from SO ambitious "thinly- clads".

The list of thinly clads inhabiting
Bundy Hall is composed of several
winners in last season l. c. A. L. and

ing Freshmen. However, Earlham is
not the only state school that has
promising track prospects.
ivey Touted as Good
Whenever Charles Ivey enters a
high jump event, Quaker rooters are
almost positive he will place. 1vey
won the /. c. A. L. high jump last sea
son and is the holder of three state
records. Coach Move is planning to
have Ivey work out on the broad jump.
Johnson and Carey are depended
upon to place in the shot put and
discus throw. Both placed in last
years state meet. Lawler will be en-
tered in the dash, hurdles and broad
Jump events. Forquer is counted upon
for the da shes.
Three Freshmen. Carter, Davis and
Nicholson, bring good track records
to Earlham. Carter holds the high
school quarter mile record for the
state of New York, but will be groom
ed by Coach Move for both the quarter
mile and dash events. Other promis-
ing men are Carey in the pole vault;
Crafts, Kamp, Whitley and Raiford
as middle distance runners; and Tom
linson, Dalton, Mills and Ray johnson
as distance runners.

Richmond high school was eliminat-
ed from district tourney honors by
Newcastle, % to II, at Newcastle Sat
urday morning.
The game was hard fought and
Richmond put up a better game than
the score would indicate. Inability to
make shots at the basket count, was
the chief reason for defeat. New
castle showed unerring ba sket &C
curacy.
Newcastle started the game with two
subs in the lineup but they were
jerked before five minutes of play.
Newcastle started the scoring on two
long field goals by Gullion, but Rich
mond came back and tied the count,
Sonly to lose 1t with the. entry of the
Newcastle regulars. However they
fought hard and the half ended with
Newcastle leading Is to 8.
Newcastle Lead Increased
The second half was repetition of
the first Newcastle increased the
in the game in vain endeavor to
stem the tide.
Gullion was the chief light for New
castle, connecting with six long shots
and making one out of five free
throws. Haynes and Houck tossed
two field markers each. Wilson led
Richmond in scoring, tossing one field
and two foul goals. Harkins, Reed
and Price came through with one bas-
ket each.
More than 1000 people were on
hand for this game, and about 200
Richmond rooterS were in one section
of the coliseum. Sentiment was even
ly divided, however, as all visitors
wanted to see Newcastle eliminated
from the tourney. The Richmond
fans announced they would see the
tourney through.
Newcastle will play Fountain City
in the semi-finals at 3 p. m. The win
ner Of this game will play the winner
of the gerstown-Spiceland game, at
s p. m. Saturday

"GOLDIE" RAPP GOES
SOUTH WITH REDS

''Goldie" Rapp, well known to local
baseball fans because of his brilliant
playing with the Richmond Central
League club in 1917. has been signed
by the Cincinnati Reds and will be
given thorough tryout at Miami.
Due to the fact that Heinie Groh
demands more money and Garry Herr
man will not bulge another penny,
Rapp has a golden chance to fill in
at the third base job. "Goldie" played
with New Orleans in the Southern
League last season and hung UP
respectable fielding and batting aver
age. Sam Crane, of indianapolis, will
be formida BILE rival of Rapp for the
