HOMES SHOULD NOT
BE TAXED-SANDERS

''The greatest thing in any town,
community, state or nation is to have
citizens who own their own homes,
and when / attend the Constitutional
Convention, ] am going to offer a
suggestion which I believe will re-
suit in many more people owning
homes" said Gov. j. Z. Sanders at
the luncheon given at the Chamber
of Commerce last Thursday.
"We ask the laboring man to build
his home. but offer him no induce
ment. Instead, when he builds a
home he is compelled to pay big
taxes for the privilege Of becoming
a better citizen and giving his wife

Of any working man. Let the land
upon which the home is built be

begin practicing for the game scheduled
for Jan with the Vincennes Y. NJ, c. A.
Coach Buss plans to hold practice every
day this week.
Tiger basketeers had planned to spend
the entire vacation Mt home. but an early
return was made necessary by the SEIZED
uling of nm extra game with the Vim
necces ''Y' shortly after the squad left
The game will be played at Vincennes.
Another reason for the early return
Is to enable Coach Buss to pick n man
from the squad to MI the place Of Tiny
Hirt at back guard. Because of a def
cheney in studies, Hirt recently was de-
clared ineligible to play for the re-
mainder of the season by DR.. w. NJ

Coach Buss This is a serious problem
as there doesn't seem to be any back

local athlete and has been making an
excellent showing at his position.

Locals Hare Chicago Star and
Bacon to Help in To-
nights Game.

Reports have 1t that all who have seen
Indiana State Normal in action on the
hardwood state that Normal has one OF
the best teams It has had In years.
Normal has been the only team in the
state able to hand the Nincennes "Y'' the
short end of the score and only last
night Wabash fell before the "X' team
by q six-point margin. Therefore II
looks like one OF thSse last ditch battles
again tonight for the Merchants at the
Y. VI. c. A
In view OF the fact that Normal ap-
pears so strong and the Merchants viii
be without the services Of Stonebreaker,
they have looked In other directions TO
strengthen their lineup. Johnson. Of Chi
cago. has been signed 10 take his place
and in view Of the fact that J0Anson Is
supposedly one of the best forwards In
the West he will fill the position with
out the least bit Of trouble He held
down d forward position with the I'LL
nOis Athletic Club when they won the
A A L championship. and was mem
Der Of the famous Great Lakes team.
Since then he has played with the Wait
ing owls and the Fort Wayne h. OF G..

at Chicago.
Bacon will be at his regular position At
floor guard tonight. and along with Stev-
ems will make a hard life for any for
ward. II. Stevens VIII be seen ut the

switched to center. The game appears

MIDDLE CHAMP
STAYS QUIET

NEW YORK.. Dec 2s.--with three COM
isnions passing over the stage in action
at the Garden-Dcmpsey, Leonard and
Herman-it appears to be about time for
Johnny Wilson 10 speak his piece. John
ny Is the owner al the middleweight title
through the kindness OF friendly deci-
sion. He wrested the crown from Mike
O'Dowd through a lucky streak OF for
tune IN Boston Since that epoch In
Wilson's career he's kept away from
hese d!ggings. In fact. John has done
little quarrslinG: his last efforts result
ed in his being pasted freely by Georse
Robinson.
When Wilson was given O'powds silk
hat he promised the latter a chance for
his old title. Mike has awaited the
chance, but up 20 press time Wilson
hasn't paid the slightest attention to
O'Dnwd's pleas. There was a big offer
dangling before Wilson 10 1ght O'Dowd
I'm a tisle event Wilson declined ON the
ground he wasn't in good physical shape.
Now his value as drawing card has de
creased TO terrible extent and the best
offer he could get would be on a per-
centage basis.
AS long as O'Dowd had not heard
from Wilson he's beginning to get heart
and send cut slight claims on the crown.
If Wilson doesn't defend It soon there
isn't the least doubt that he Will he de-
throncd and O'Dowd's claim recognized.
The manner in which Wilson won the
title from O'DOwd will help Michael in
claiming his former diadem.
