.BEMlDu HIGH WINNERS
Defeat Mcintosh By 81 to 10 Score
Local Basket Tossers Show Speed
And Out Glass Visitors
TANNER STAR OF CONTEST

Showing that the Bennidji Athle-
tics are not the only winning bas-
ketball aggregation Of this city, the
high school quint Saturday night adj
ministered decisive beating to Nc
Intosh, the score at the end of the
contest being 81 to 10 in favor Of
the local youngsters.
Mcintosh had defeated Bemidji
earlier in the season, and the high
school boys were determined to wipe
out the stain. They went to work
at the beginning Of the game with a
determination to win and played with
speed and accuracy hard to stop. At
the end of the first half the score
was Fl to in favor OF Bemidji.
Tanner, at forward for Bemidji,
was the star Of the evenings play.
Twenty-Five of the winning points
We're chalked up by this little player.
Time after time he would assist in
taking the ball out of danger, and
rarely did he miss an opportunity TO
score. He would toss basket while
his guard stood over him, and SEEM
ingly without effort.
Cameron, playing his first game of
basketball, more than made good at
forward. Not only did he shoot
three baskets but was fast in his team
work. Graham Captain Elletson and
Hayner also played strong basketball
and are deserving of much credit.
The visitors were a gentlemenIy
lot of boys and the defeat was the
first of the season for them.

COMPLAINS o. HIGH INTEREST.
McAdoo Sends TclcgramS To- Clearing
Houses in Big Cities.

Washington, Sept. 2G.-Secretary
McAdoo to-day sent kilograms to the
chairmen Of the clearing house asso-
Citations in New York, Chicago, Bos-

nigh interest rates in those cities.

that condition.
The kilograms said: 81 have re-
ceived complaints about the high
rates OF interest which are being
charged by the national banks Of New
York, Boston, Chicago and other re-
serve cities. 1t Is alleged that the
New York banks are requiring their
correspondent banks throughout the
country to pay 7 per cent fer loans
and to maintain a balance with the
New York banks, which makes the
money cost the correspondent bank
the equivalent OF 8 per cent or more.
Specific cases have been brought to
my attention where banks in cities Of

the South have been required to pay
these high interest rates. III New

cent interest to the correspondent
banks Of the South, these Southern
banks must, in turn, charge a still
higher rate to the small banks, which
are, in turn their correspondent is,
thus making the money cost thefplti-

Orbitant rates.
Sounds Warming.
"From all the evidence before me
cannot feel that the charge of to
s per cent interest by the New York
banks is justified in the circum-
stances. Within the past six weeks
! have approved the issuance to the
national banks OF New York city Of

How are you going to reconcile the

the position they are now taking?
Clemson had better wish they had a
friend like Elias Earle. fOr Whenever
they come to the Legislature for an
appropriation South Carolina is Going
to demand control in the board OF
trustees.
Remember Shakespeare's King
Lear. Clemson's income is too pre-
cariOus for an institution Of the
kind. While in good times it Wc.ks
well enough, in a time like the pres
ent there should have been money
put aside for an emergency. and not
recklessly spent so as to use their
entire income.
The source is not we'll taken for it

in the sale and use of ready-mixed

There are many things that a real

personal pocket may be touched.
