HOW MUCH is WORLDS DEBTa.
international Financial Congress May
Know at Present Session.

New York, Oct. How much is
the world in debt?
The answer will probably be forth
coming at the International Financial
Congress now in session at Brussels.
The program. among other details,
provides for the presentation of state
ments, or balance sheets, showing the
exact financial status of all countries
represented. These countries in
clude former belligeAent and neutral
countries.
An indication of the worlds debt
is furnished by the increased debt of
sthe principal countries involved in
THE war; In 1914 their combined ma
tional debt stood at more than $2S,-
coo. 100000. BY 1919 1t had increased
almost tenfold to $241 900, 10000 This
total includes the dent of the United
States and Russia. but neither of
these countries has official lrepresen-
tation at the present conference.
France and Great Britain have the
largest debts of the allied nations
participating. The British/d debt. ac-
cording to the Bankers Trust Com
pany of New York, reached its max
imum, about s4O,0O0,0 600, 900, at the
end of 1919. Frances debt is $3.50 :
100000, but France owes Grea. Bri-
tain some $4,000. 100000 The debt Of
the United States is $4,000, 900, 900.
Despite her own enormous debt.
England participates In the confer
ence as a creditor nation among the
European belligerents represented.
The debts Of the other former belli-
gerents are not offset by credits,
whereas in the case of Great Britain
her allies owe her, for money Adj
vanced, about $4,000, 100000 This
sum is more than the amount Great
Britain borrowed from various fer
eisn nations. chief of whom is the
United States.
The display of national balance
sheets at the conference may, among
other things, lead to an accurate esti-
mate of what the debt owed to Great
Britain is really worth as a recover
able asset.

Jack Curley. we'll known fistic i'm
pressario and wrestling promoter,

work, at least for year or two. Cur
ley has been suffering with nervour
affection and for time it was fear
ed he might become partially disabled
thEu paralysis. The nerves of his face
were affected, with the result that his
countenance was drawn out of shape
but recent advices from the Curfey
home indicate he is now improving,
tho slowly. Curley managed the AM
erican tour of Georges Carpenter, the
French champion, and had planned to
promote the first bout in which
Georges appeared in this country.

this country several weeks ago his

Walter Mails, southpaw pitcher
who recently went to the Cleveland
club from Sacramento in the Pacific
Coast League, does not want to hit
any hatsman. Mails has terrific speed.
Altho he was not present, Mails has
heard much about Ray Chapmans
death following injuries sustained by
being hit by pitched ball and the
big lad declared emphatically that he
has always had some little fear of
hitting young hatters who were UNI
accustomed to protect themselves by
moving away from the ball.
President David Fultz, of the New
INTERNATIONAL League is vitality inter-
ested in the baseball scandal which

but it is sure thing bet he will have
a chance to explain to F'ultz and
league directors just what his con-
Rection will be. F'ult: took stand for
permanent disqualification of the
White Sox players. as soon as the
facts were made public, and it is not
likely he would permit member of
his league to continue if his connec-
ton with the schemes of the gam
blers was proven.

and takes a long swing at the ball,

Dentals Set to Take
on State Normal Five
at Athenaeum Court

Tho Indiana State Normal basketball
team will meet the Indiana Dental college
i've at the Athenaeum gymnasium. New
Jersey and Michigan streets, tonight.
The game will start at SIS o'clock. John
Head will referee.
State Normal, the team that defeated
Rose Poly a week ago. is one Of the
fastest college teams In the state. How
ever, Coach Thurber's Franklin college
quintet, won from the Terre Haute ag-
gregation last night at Franklin by a
43 TO 25 score Normal got away IN the
lead against the Baptists, but the Norman
guards failed to cover Ross, the star
Franklin forward, and Ross tossed eleven
field goals. 1t was not until the 6pal
minutes of play that the Franklin team
really got a big lead on the Teachers.
The Dentals expect the Teachers to try
and stage a comeback at their expense
tonight at the Athenaeum gym. Neither
team has ever played on that floor and as
a result there is no home floor advantage
for the Tooth Pullers. Winters and
Schinerer were the big pOlnt-makers for
the Normal quintet last night, though NAL
Iory, center, who plays a consistent game,
came through with his usual field goal.
Miller appeared at, guard In place OF
Glenn for the Teachers against Franklin
and Mckinney played the other defensive
position.
Coach Clark's Dentals probably will
start tonight's game with their regular
lineup Of Reeve and Mcpherson, for
wards: Ravens, center; Witter and Nc
earthly, guards.

Tho Debonairs defeated the Lauters. 56
to 81. on the Lauter door last night in
the sixth round of the city amateur bas-
ketba1l circuit. The Lauters are consid-
cred one OF the strongest outfits entered
in the Indianapolis sectional OF the In
diana 150-pound amateur tourney. and
the fact that the Debs slaughtered them
so easily makes It appear as though
Coach Squires' quintet is going to be
heard from in the late rounds Of the big
classic, which is to be staged on the
Marion club floor next Wednesday and
Thursday.
Jennings and Andrews. who have been
working as guards for the Debonalrs,
were shifted to the forward stations in
last nights contest and they performed
In real style. The followers of the team
believe that these men viii he relied upon
to do most Of the scoring for the Green
and White combination in the amateur
meet.
The Debonairs are now leading the
amateur loop by a good margin, with
four games won and none lost They
lost to the Turner's a few weeks ago, but
that game was protested and ruled out.
In the other game on their card the Debs
will oppose the Boys club, and they are
confident of coming through the season
with flying cOlorS.
