NEW YORK, Jan. 30-Mrs. Margar-

defying birth control advocate, and her
associate, Miss Fanny Mindell, we're
placed on trial in Special Sessions on
charges growing out of the mainten-
ance of a birth control clinic by Mrs.
Sanger in Brooklyn.
The defense is making a strenuous
effort to get the testimony of ply
sicians into the case saying the death
rate among children ascends aston
ishingly with the increase in births
per family. The defense is trying to
attempt to prove from voluminous
statistics that deaths per 1000 births
in families having less than three
children is 1885; three or four child
rem 1876; five or six children 1928;
seven or eight children 1854; nine OF
more children 1919.
AS in the case of Mrs. Ethel Byrne
Mrs. Sanger's sister, who was con
victed and whose case is now on ap-
peal, the defense argues that birth
control is not birth elimination but
merely voluntary motherhood.

have been trying to get the story
of some British heroes. 1t can't be
done. They say what they do belongs
to the unit they happen to be in.
The unit says the glory belongs to the
next higher unit and so on until one
is told that the honor belongs to the
whole British army.
The, theory is that it is very unfair
for an individual to be signaled as
hero. They say it is not treating
the other fellow right for one to be
press agented and heralded all over
the world as the doer of a great deed
because every day there are hun
dreds upon hundreds of men who are
risking their lives in the deadlies
of dangerous undertakings and are
never even heard of. Luck one il
told, makes more heroes than anything
else-luck which provides the oppor
tunity and luck which let's one be seer
while grasping it.

same way but if anything the British
carry the idea further. A Frencl

Basket Ball Game-Annexes Three
Times as Many Points.

The result of the basketball game
between Twin Falls high school and
Rupert high school last Friday even
ing, decidedly favored the Rupert
team, the final score being 49 to 16.
The success of the opposing team
was due largely to fine team work
and accuracy in basket shooting The
local team contributed to the score
of their opponents by making an un-
usual number or fouls. A recent
change in the Twin Falls lineup
was largely responsible for the un-
even score.
The first half was opened with the
usual tactics of the Twin Falls
team, McCracken making the first
basket In a few minutes, Rupert
began to find their feet, and their
score started upward. Grace the
Rupert right forward shot six field
goals during the half. Strong, of
Twin Falls made a perfect overhead
shot near the close of the period.
At the ring of the gong. the score
stood at % to s.
The second half was a repetition
of the first, McCracken starting the
fireworks with a long field goal. The
fouls began to play a prominent part
of the game at this point, giving
Rupert an additional lead. Grace
made five more field goals, the most
and player in an opposing team has
made in the second half of this
seasons games. The score for the
second half was 27 to 8, making the
total of 40 to 16.
