feated the Springfield Independent
colored team on the Coliseum floor
Monday night by the score of 34-l7.
The locals did seem to be able to
get together in the first half. missing
many shots at the basket and the de-
tense was not working up to the stand
ard The first half ended 12-11 in ia
vor of the visitors.
Coming back strong in the second
half the A C.'s scored goal after goal
when the visitors defense seemed to
weaken The Springfield forwards
could not solve the A. C.'s defense in
the second half and did not make a
field goal, adding their five points
from the foul line.
Hill Is Star.
Hill, forward for the locals, was the
scoring star of the game, making ~
points for his evenings work. Much
credit must be given Ross, the husky
back guard of the Richmond quintet,
for his excellent showing under the
basket, breaking up play after play of
the opponents. There were no stars
on the Springfield five all the men
playing the same brand of ball.

BY ERNEST PORTER.

With the district tourney only a
little over week away, the question
on every ones mind is who will win
the tournament held in Richmond this
season."
Picking a winner in a tournament is
something that is hard to do, more
especially SO this season than before,
as the old dope bucket has been kick
ed over so many times this year.
The favorites for this district seem
to be Richmond and Connersville.
Richmond's win over Connersville
earlier in the season gives them a
slight edge. But since this game Rich
mond has been hitting much livelier
pace. Connersville is a much heavier
quintet than the Richmond five, which
maybe a great advantage for the Fay
cite county lads, over the much lighter
Richmond five.
Taking the record of the Richmand
team, one finds it has won only three
games this season, while many of the
other teams have won from Is to 20
games, but they have not played the
caliber of teams that Richmond has
played Coach Null's men have played
some Of the best high school teams in
the state and have held them to close
scores. 1t is a known fact that if a
team plays opponents that are better
than they are they will improve. This
fact also will give Richmond a slight
edge.
OF course Richmond has not played
any of the fiveS in this district except
the one game with Connersville But
the comparative strength of the Rich
mond high can be judged OH the
showing the Brownsville high school
team made against the T. N. T. FIVE.
The Brownsville five was no match
for the explosives, losing by a very
one-sided score. The Brownsville five
has defeated many of the district
teams and has held some to low scores
while on the other hand the r.. n. r.
have been praoticing against Coach
Nulls men and have very easy
match for the high school team.
Liberty May Change Form.
1t is hard to pick a winner from
past performances. Liberty's over.
whelming defeat at the hands Of the
Connersvile lads practically elimin-
ates them from the running, but they
might run in reverse form and come
cut on the top. Liberty has always
been in the running in the tourna-
ments held in Richmond and it will
not be surprising to see them play up
to the finals.
Whitewater, Hagerstown and Cam
bridge City must be considered in the
running this season as they are repre-
sented by very strong fives. These
three teams have won from Is to 90
games this season and have met each
other several times, which have result
ed in wins for both teams, by a very
small margin.
Whitewater Veteran Team.
Whitewater is composed of a team
'of veterans playing their second or
third year and can be counted up ia
furnish some strong opposition and
are feared by many of the district
teams. They have a formidable rec
ord for the season. All the men are
exceptionally good basket shooters
and compose q fairly heavy five.
Hagerstown quintet is composed OF
bunch Of husky lads and also has a
very good record for the season. Its
followers are looking for them to dc
wonders at the meet. They are a
fast aggregation and their weight will

De PAUW'S TIGERS
ARE HERE TO FACE
0UAKERS TONIGHT

DePauw's tigers will furnish the
opposition for the Earlham Quakers
at the Coliseum tonight. Plenty of
opposition is expected although the
Bussmen already have one victory
over the locals to their credit, and
have had a very successful season.
Both DePauw and Earlham have
been defeated by Wabash this year
although the relative scores show that
the Tigers came nearer breaking the
winning streak of the Little Giants
than did the Maroon warriors. How
ever the Quakers will have the ad-
vantage of playing on their home floor
and may hand the visitors a surprise.
The lineup of the Greencastle team
includes several stars of the first
magnitude. Probably foremost among
these is Cannon, chief cog in the scor-
ing machine of the Methodists, who
has been mentioned by critics as one
of the best forwards in the state. He
rose into fame on the Anderson high
school team in the year that they were
runner-up in the state high school
tournament. His running mate Glib
son has also gained the reputation of
being among the leaders in the art of
dropping the inflated oval through the
nettings.
White May be Out
1t is proba BILE that White, star CEN
ter Of the Greencastle aggregation,
will be unable to get into tonights
fray because of his ineligibility. In
case he is absent at the opening whis-
tie his place will be filled by Bills,
who has had two years experience on
the DePauw squad. The first-string
guards of the Methodists are Menden-
hall and White.
The Earlham lineup will be the
same as in the Wabash contest. ex-
cept that Hall may have to stay out
of the game because of doctors or
. ders. Hall has not been in good shape
for some time and it Is probable that
the Wabash game was his last appear
ance before local fans.
Curtain Raiser.
The curtain raiser tonight will be
between the Brownsville high quintet
and the Cambridge City five. This
game will start at GAS allowing the
big game to start at TAB.
