Randolph Macon college basket

night for the purpose OF putting a,
rest their claim to the basketball
championship of the r. v. l. A, A.
for the season. and well did they &C.
lcomplish their purpose. by defeating
the Spiders by the overwhelming
score Of Al to Is.
So decisive was the victory that,
there is no doubt In the minds of the
Spiders most ardent admirers, that
the Jackets are the undispated cham.
pions OF the league
The Spiders offer no excuses for
the defeat handed them last night
as the score plainly shows that they
were outclassed In every department
OF the great indoor game, and from
the start there never was any doubt
as to the outcome, except that few OF
those present expected the score to be
as one-sided N 1t was.
The Jackets started or with a rush
and with the accurate goal shooting
OF Lane. who Gagged the ball seven
times during the first half. they took
an early lead and increased 1t ~ the
SaEs progressed.
The first half ended with the Jack
cts Seading by thirteen points.
1t was at the beginning OF the
second period that the Jackets ran
rings around the conquered Spiders.
who were unable to keep up the pace
set by their opponents. In fact, the
Spiders never had a look-in during
this period.

lead. devoted most of the time In

The new champions. put up a cork
ing good game as a team, which
after all Is said and done, In what
counts In the end. and not individual
playing. as some OF the Spiders tried
to get away with last night.
So great was the defense of the
Jackets last night that they held the
Spiders to four points in the ANAL
period. two OF these being free shots
from the foul line, MOTLEY and Towel
securing one each. The other two
points scored in this half were made
by MOTLEY. who Gagged the bali from
difficult angle near the side iine.
The goal shooting OF Lane and the
free shooting OF Smoot were the out

Harding's speech will be longer than
the four column limit he originally set.
He has endeavored to have it express

on it almost exclusively for a week,
and has been out of doors scarcely at

Thirty-irve c. al companies and their
chief Officers all of southern West
Virginia. were named IN warrants S
sued today H. connection With the coal
price investigation conducted the past
fortnight by government authorities.
The warrants will be executed next
week.
The warrants allege shat unjust and
unlawful prices We're charged for coal,
but don't give the exact amounts

A few weeks ago The Journal pub
lished series Of articles gathered by
special Investigators throughout tie
country indicating that coal operators
had forced the price of coal sky hi lgh
in response to bids from exporters.
The interstate commerce commission
issued priority order on coal cars,
giving domestic orders preference ard
setting a 30-day embargo on the use of
coal cars for transporting gravel, sand,
etc.
Despite this order, the price has
steadily advanced and at the present
time the best grade of coal sold on
the local market is quoted at $3.50 at
the mine. When freight, unloading.
shrinkage overhead and dealers profit
is added to this, it means that the price
to the consumer will be in the neigh
