MsARLHAM SCARES
EN- R0ES; LOSES
ONLY BY q TO "a

Although Earlham accepted the
short end of % to "a score in the
Em-Roe game in the Coliseum We'd
nesday night, Quaker basketball stock
took decided rise in Indiana circles.
The loss of last nights game does
not lower Earlham's standing. but
rather adds to it. Purdue defeated
the Em-Roes early in the season, then
lost to the Fort Wayne X. of c. team,
by a greater majority than that by
which Earlham lost to the Em-Roes.
The Em-Roes in turn walloped the X.
of c. team by five points majority.
Purdue defeated Indiana by nine
points. Judging from this array of
dope, Earlham can be classed with the
best.
Last nights game was said by many
to be the best exhibition put up by
Earlham this season. At no point Of
play did the Em-Roes have COM
handing lead on Coach Moves prote-
ges. Earlham tied the score four
times and at one time was leading by
four points.
Earlham had more chances to score
than did the visitors, but fluked sew
eral shots from right under the goal.
Only two of the field markers made
by Earlham were close. :. -.
Kline Is a Wonder.
Kline, Em-Roe forward, possessed
the most accurate basket eye seen
here in several years. All six of the
baskets Gagged by him were sensation
al, at times appearing to be lucky
shots.
He has been making the same shots
for over five years, however, and has
all the fine points of shooting per-
p fected. Schoeneman and Smith also
y1isplayed basket accuracy.
Lawler was the chief point getter
for Earlham, annexing four field goals
and two free throws. His four field
markers came from long shots. Hall
and Carey came in for two markers
apiece, each trapping long and a
short shot. Cy Pitts missed several
easy shots but managed to toss one
through the netting from past the CEN
ter Of the floor.
Goar Shows Promise.
Goar substituted for Hall in the last
five minutes Of play, captured two
markers from the field. Johnson, at
back guard, was half of the Earlham
team, as he broke up the greater ma
jority of Em-Roe plays and prevented
shots when close to the goal, His
work outclassed that of Feeney, back
guard and captain of the visitors.
No practice will be held by the
Earlham team Thursday of Friday, as
the Quaker mentor is satisfied the
brand of basketball displayed against
the Em-Roes will enable Earlham to
trim Rose Poly by ~ points. The
next home game for Earlham will be
against the DePauw aggregation on
Feb. 6.

No Jacs Buying Mexican
Land, Assert Commerce Head
fBy Associated Press)

MEXICO CITY. JAM. 29.-Reports
that Japanese interests were securing
large grants Of petroleum lands on
the Pacific coast of Mexico, were de-
MED Yesterday by Plutarco Elias Cal
les. former governor of the. state Of
Sonora and at present secretary Of
industry, commerce and labor.
Senior Gales declared not a single

CAMBRIDGE CITY
AND HACERST0WN
IN B. B. LIGHT

The basketball tilt between Cam
bridge City and Hagerstown at Cam
bridge City, holds the center Of the
stage of Friday nights basketball
show.
Cambridge City has been travelling
at rapid pace in recent games, and
has won from Rushville, Brookville.
and other fast teams Hagerstown was
defeated by Liberty, and Liberty by
Rushville. The scrap promises to
bring out the record crowd of the sea-
son. Cambridge City is scheduled to
play off a postponed game with White
water on Saturday night.
Fountain City expects little difficult
ty in defeating the New Lisbon quintet
at New Lisbon, Friday night. Foun-
tain City is considered a contender for
district honors at New Castle, and I'M
less the dope bucket receives an awful
wallop, should trim New Lisbon by a
large score.
The game at Spiceland Saturday
night will give Richmond fans an op-
portunity of finding just how Rich
mond stands with the best teams in
the state.
Eaton high school basketballers will
be entertained by Coach Shocks Lib
erty five Friday night. Eaton has de-
feated several of the best teams in
Ohio and is prepared to trim the In
diana quintet.
Richmond's rival, Newcastle, is
doomed to take trimming, according
to Connersville rooters, when the two
teams clash at Connersville Friday
night. The home team is hard to beat
on their small floor, and although
Newcastle has the better record, Con,
nersville rootres have some founda-
tions for their optimistic claims.
