ElHLHAM FIVE LOSES
OPENING NET GAME;
SPEEDY PACE Tells

Earlham's basketball quintet lost
the opening game of the season to.
Concordia college at Fort Wayne Sat
urday night, by the score of $3.50.
The game was fast from start till
finish. The pace seemed to tell on the
Quakers at times due to the fact they
had only one week 10 prepare for the
contest.
KEEPS broke the ice when after
about two minutes of scTimmage he
made a field goal for Concordia.
Schneider also scored. Hinshaw then
registered Earlham's first points with
a field goal Concordia carried the
lead until about the middle OF the half
when Earlham made three baskets in
rapid succession and took the lead II
10 II. From then on the first half the
battle was even. the half ending 1919.
Earlham took the lead shortly after
the second period began, by scoring
field goal. Concordia then began TO
try long shots.
With 10 minutes to go the score
stood 1925. Here Coach Move began
TO substitute and with five minutes
left the score stood 1929. GOar pitch
cd foul and COncordia scored twice
Both aggregatiOns lacked team work
but made up this defect by their indi-
vidual efforts Earlham showed flash
es of team work at times.
Townsend worked well for or the
otfense while Captain Goar was the
main cog in the defense
Coach Move stated after the game
he was well pleased with the showing
made. COncordia does not play foot
bali and has been out for basketball
over a month. incompetent refereeing
. in the last half showed up the game
and proved a big factor in tho Quak-
er's defeat. During this period IS
fouls were called on Earham and two
on Concordia.
