Basket Ball.

The Lindsey Wilson Training School
defeated Shepherdsville High School
boys team in basket ball by score
OF l04 to here Friday night.
The team work of L. W. T. S. boys
was unexcelled in the last half when
they sometimes made as many as
three goals in half minute.
The work of Jim Lewis in running
the floor and the work of Wesley in
getting the bail out of the mix-ups
had the opponents guessing. Cook
did effective work in the last half,
while Calhoun and Powers held the
S. FL. S. boys safely at bay as guards
Reece and III. Popplewell who went
in the last half had both been sick in
bed last week, but did effective work.
The determination and grit exhibit
ed by L. W. T. S. girls team has
made Lindsey no less proud of their
girls, especially as they defeated one
of the strongest teams of the State.
The game was exciting and bitterly
contested from the first, and Colum-
bia won by sheer pluck and determi-
nation.

The fortified city of Volhynia has also
been cleaned of the Germans, say the

Russians are reported to be massing
great numbers of fresh troops in East
Galicia.
This last report is substantiated by
the further dispatches from Berlin,

WAR With JAPAN

California Senator Believes
Exclusion Controversy Will

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 10. =
That the United States will be forced
into war with japan over the question
OF Japanese exclusion within meas
urably short time was the sensational
announcement made last night before
the delegates of the National Civic
Convention, in session here, by Sena-
tor James ID. Phelan of San Francisco.
The Japanese residents of America
the California senator characterized as
the enemy within our gates against
whose expansion we must prepare"
Exclusion Is Trouble Breeder.
The speaker declared his conviction
that the United States and Japan will
he at war over American insistence
upon excluding Japanese from the
limited States within a comparatively
shore time. Is
"The exclusion question will press
for a solution by arms almost before
America decides to prepare for her
own defense" he saic.
Senator Phelan quoted recent words
of Count Okuma, the Japanese pre-
mier. that the record of the colored
races in the war now being fought
shows them to be the equals OF the
white races, which statement, he SAID.
evidenced the disposition OF the Jap.
anese to claim equality and equai
rights in the United States with the
white races against which there are
no bars as immigrants.
But the industrial competiton
when the races come together lowers
the standard of living and it must not
be thought that Californians VIII tol-
crate such competition. which VIII IN
eyitably bring friction between the
races that will lead to war"
