A dead man in Burma always pays
his fare across the mystic river Of
death with q small coin which he car
ries in his mouth. The curse that
rests on grave-diggers as class prob
ably comes from the fact that most
of the men Of this trade have no
scruples about digging the poor
wretches up for their coins. 1t is be:
ilieved that this causes the spirits of
the disturbed ones to return to this
world to suffer all the Ills that the
Burman Imagination can conjure up

De Palma Is Second to Enter 5OO-Mile
 Auto Sweepstakes

Indianapolis, February 6.-(Speclal)-
 Ralph DePalma, International star, and one of Americas favorite race drivers, is the second to enter the ninth annual 500 mile international sweepstakes of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May so Eddie Hearne, the last of the mil lionaires who has met DeFalma in many a speed battle on road, track and hill, is the only one to precede Ralph. in
 entering. Tn filing his entry DePalma has not named the car he will drive. but 1t is generally believed that this will be Ballot, from the Paris factory. DePal- ma has been driving the "eight-in-line" speedster for two years and will start the championship season at Los An geles, on Washington's Birthday. at the wheel of the French car. He has also , been selected by Earnest Ballot to cap tain his team of four cars in the French grand prix in July
 GAINED FAVOR IN 1912 DePalma gained favor of the speed fans in 1912 by defeat rather than VIC tory. The Italian-American drove Mercedes in the 500 nine years ago. For 495 miles he showed the way 10 all American and foreign cars and drlvers' only to have victory slip from his grasp and see $2o000 vanish, with two laps | of the brick course to go. Ills dago luck" as he chose to designate his mis- fortune, made him the favorite of al- most every fan.
 SETS TRACK RECORD Three years later he set a track rec ! ord and won the Indianapolis classic, after an almost seven-hour battle with Dario Resta and his fleet Peougeot. This time DePalma again drove Mer-s cedes. While Ralph had perhaps five miles an hour less under the hood or his car he out-gamed Resta in driving and attained the ambition of every race driyer-a 500-mile victory Inciden- tally, no driver has ever twice won thls event
 DePalma, in making his entry, has advised T. E. Myers, secretary general
 manager of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway company, that he hopes to be 1 the first to hang up two five-century victories although he is not egotistical enough to state that he will win the event, which last year carried total 1 cash award of about S100,0O0.
 HAD HARD LUCK LAST YEAR III luck last May was all that pre- vented DePalma from being the first to win a pair of Indianapolis races. The same was true in 1919, when he set the pace for the first half of the race. AL 1 though DePalma has won countless races, the fans admire him more for {. his sportsmanlike attitude nine years ago when victory was turned into de- | feat, because iron and steel could not stand the strain of the speed test on the brick oval for another four min- utes.
 l decade ago crowd of 100000 pre- diction for almost any automobile race | or speed test would have been grounds | to have the predictor placed under tho observation of an alienist. The Indian apolis. speedway passed the century thousand mark seven years ago, and I last year 125,000 fans passed through the gates to see the international speed classic. The seat sale for the ninth an-
 nual 500-mile sweepstakes opened last Monday, January 31, and indications ! are that a new worlds record will be made by the 1921 five century.

Central's Inuasion
 of Tennessee Cost
 Crimson Two Games
By BEN GREEN


 The invasion of Tennessee by the Central quintet did not prove a great
 success from the standpoint of win
 ming, but it showed that Alabama | products are as game as they make 'em. | The Crimson lost the first battle which was with Bryson college, by a 30 to 23 score land the contest with Morgan school resulted, 37 to 14, in favor of Morgan. These defeats will not hurt Centraps chances for the southern championship, as these two aggregations are in the secondary college class. The first defeat may be attributed to the absence of Stubbs from the lineup, and both contests
 would undoubtedly have resulted diff ferently had Mig Lawley been able to play. It is said that the refereeing was very poor, and hardly any r~rson- i al fouls were called. The college men were so large that the only way Cen> tral could score was either to dribble up to the basket, or to shoot from diff ficult angles.
 FIRST GAME
 The first contest. was very exciting, with the weight of the college lads telling heavily Their guards com- pletely smothered the diminutive
 Barney Copeland and held the shifty Tom Anderson to five field goals. Tom played the game of his life and ran the floor with the speed of bullet.
 Rox, at center, played nobly, but was unable to cope with the experienced Bryson pivot man. Carlisle put up
 great guarding exhibition and made eight points for the Crimsons. farrell, the other sentinel, stuck under the
 basket and fought all the time, pre- venting many scores. He showed a good eye for the basket. shooting three out of six attempted foul goals. The collegians showed great form at shooting from distance, making at least half of their points in that manner. The Morgan school delega- tion was present, and spotted Ander- |son, CentraPs best scorer. stubbs. who went in for Rox, had all he could do to handle the Bryson center, who was over six feet tall and weighed around 180 pounds. The man took advantage of his weight. and roughed it up at every possible mo- ment, it is said.
 MORGAN GAME
 The game with Morgan was simply the story of a good little team playing a good big team, with the usual re- suit. One factor that was of great use to Morgan was the assignment of two guards to cover Anderson, who was not allowed a single shot at the basket. Toby Stubbs played great game at center, shooting all of Gen. 'trars points and fighting like ,de> mon. He was in the thick of the fight all the time. The Crimson guards played their best, and only weight and experience gave the college boys the advantage.
 Coach Myers is not disappointed in his boys. and says that under the cir cumstances no team could have done better. The Central boys will meet the Gordo, Alabama. five next Satur- day at the B. A. c. The Crimsons are are doped to win rather easily, but the visitors may prove stronger than they are thought to be. The prospect is very bright for the return of Cap tain Lawley to the lineup in time for the tournament. at which the Central advocates are banking heavily on win ming the Alabama championship.
