KENTUCKY ELEVEN
NEXT FOR QUAkERS;
LAST HOME CONTEST

Next Saturday the Quakers will
meet Pennsylvania College on Reid
field in the last home game of the sea
son, going to Franklin the next week
end for the final encounter. Thus far
in the season the Quakers have had
bad luck in scoring, having won but
one game and that by a narrow mar
gin. Next Saturday the Quakers will
meet team Of more nearly equal
strength and Coach Moves aggrega-
ton should show up better in the scor-
ing end of the game than previously.

Coach Move was forced to practically
reconstruct new team at the begin
ming of this season. Out of bunch
of comparatively green material Move
has moulded team which, although
starting at disadvantage, has been
improving constantly SO that many
fans think that the Quakers played
their best game of the season last Sat-
urday. Practically all the teams that
the Quakers have met this year have
been made up of experienced men

is considered the showing made by
Earlham is not so bad as would ap-
pear by comparing the team on
basis of scores.
Evenly Matched
When the Quakers meet Transyl-
vania Saturday, they will face a team
of about equal strength and experience
and undoubtedly will appear to beL-
ter advantage than in any other game
on the home lot this year. Although
losing all but one game and COINS
down with Overwhelming scores in the
games with Butler and Kalamazoo the
morale of the Quaker gridders has re-
manned good, a fact that is quite re-
markable. The Mowemen, unbeaten
in spirit though hopelessly showed I'm
der in scores, are looking forward TO
the game Saturday with as much
eagerness as was manifested earlier IN
the season.
The sloppy weather yesterday failed
to dampen the spirits of the Maroon
and White and the Quakers were out
on Reid field wallowing In the mud in
preparation for the fight Saturday.
There was no scrimmage as the slip
perry ground would not permit of much
speed or accuracy but good stiff
workout was held to keep the men in
condition.
Condition Is Good.
The condition of the men on the
Earlham squad has been an outstand-
ing feature of every Quaker encounter
this year and Coach Movie wishes to
keep up the good physical condition of
the men. In several of the games this
year the Quaker lineup with but few
substitutions have fought the whole
game against as many as two and
sometimes three different line-ups with
the players coming out of the scrap in
good shape. This speaks well for the
training given the squad by Coach
Move. Monday night the men prac-
ticed under the lights on the campus
after darkness had made it impossible
to see on Reid field The Quakers are
working to perfect their plays on the
principle that a few plays wen done
are better than large number which
the squad can work only part of the
time.
Last Saturday Franklin dropped the
kentuckians by score of 81 to 6. AS
Earlham plays Franklin in the final
game of the season the scrap with the
Southemers will give the Quakers a
line the comparative strength of the
Franklin bunch and an idea of what
they will be up against when they
meet the Baptists.
