The men receiving the coveted 'E'
were: Hall, captain, Nicholson, Book
cut, Johnson, Pennington, Chambers,
Beasley. Pearson. Russell, Carter,
Beck, Snyder, Ivey, Girton, Wenban
and Emslie.
Two men who graduated from Rich
mond high school last year were
among those receiving the emblem;
these were Russell and Emslie. Four
of the sixteen were freshmen. Six will
be lost by graduation.
Gordon and Hinshaw, both of whom
have made their letters previous to
this year, were injured in the early
part of the year and failed to compete
in enough games to win the letter this
season. These were two of the most
valuable men on the squad and their
loss was keenly felt by the Quakers.
Coach Move put his basketball
squad through their regular workout
on the Coliseum floor Friday night
Most of the time was spent in scrim-
maging. The Quaker mentor does not
intend to put his men through as
much scrimmage this year AS in prev
ious seasons, but during the first part
of the year it is necessary to get re-
serve supply of endurance worked up
to enable the squad to go through a
stiff game without a let up.
Fast Scrimmage.
A full 40-minute game was played
and the men on the squad handled the
ball in good style. Regulars from
past seasons are going to have to put
up scrap to retain their places. Be-
sides the regulars, Hall, Lawler, Carey
and Johnson, a high class brand of
ball is being put up by Beck, Hadley.
Thomas and several others.
The Quakers, will work out on the
Coliseum floor again Monday evening.
This will probably end their work
previous to the Antioch game next
Friday night. The game is going to
be a battle, according to advance dope.
Antioch is working hard to take the
Quaker's measure in order to break
into fast company. and they will spare
nothing to carry the bacon home from
Richmond.
The people who will attend Satur-
days banquet besides the men named
are, MendenEall, S. Prevo, Bowles, and
Robert Jones from the varsity squad,
who failed to make letters; President
D. NJ. Edwards, Professor f. p. True
blood, Coach Ray B. Move and
Assistant Coach Nash Higgins.
