In order to have each club meet
each other twice in the series.
The suggestion I'd increase the
schedule was made because. II was
stated. that the series was too
short for any of the teams to show
their real strength. The advisers
voted against the plan because 1t
would extend the season ttoo long.

18th LATE Squirt.

Features Work of I'm
beaten Hilltoppers.

Pennsylvania teams are proving
il sort of hoodoo to Georgetown
-rffversity's basketball team this
ear.
Evidence of this fact was pro-
luced for the third time this sea-
son last night in Ryan's gymna-
iium. when Dickinson College, of
arlisle. Pa, gave the peppery Hill
'oppers a merry whirl before taxi
ing the count by a 24-to-19 score.
II was the third team from the
I'D Keystone State to hold Capt.
O'Connelrs unbeaten tossers to a
5-point margin on the Hilltop floor
this year. Villa Nova and Leba-
uon-performed the feat in previous
games by scores of 80 to "a and
a to 36, respectively.
The game furnished a thrill
minute. with the score always close
c enough to keep the home rooters
a bit worried. Dickinson started
with a bang. and before the Hill
blers from the town made famous
in sportdom by the Carlisle Indian
school were stepping alopS with 4

ter obtaining the lead. the Blue
and Gray tossers never relinduished
but they could not afford to loaf
as the Keystone Staters were al
ways within the running.
From the start. the game de-
veloped into a close guarding affair
with the Hilltoppers showing the
best in this department. They held
the visiting sharp scoring outfit t.
five baskets and three of these
were made on long shots. The Blue
and Cray sharp shooters outscored
their opponents from the scrIm-
mage, 3 to ;, but were weak at the
free line.

and made l out of 3. Florence

TRIVIAL CASES
BEFORE COURT
JUSTICE CLARKE DEPLORES
GROWING .PRACTICE-URGES
ATTORNEYS TO JOIN IN Eff
FORT TO CONSERVE TIME OF
COURT.

New York, Feb. 5.-The mass o;
trivial litigation brought before tn
supreme court of the United State
was deplored last night by Associate
Justice John H. Clarke in an address
at a dinner of the New Yskr univer
sity law school alumni.
He urged lawyers, in order to con
serve the time of the court, to con
slider as a citizen rather than an ad
~vocate, whether the case was of suf
fcient Importance to justify his call
ing it to the attention of a body pri
marily organized to deal with matter:
of greatest public concern. He alsc
begged that the facts in a case be
we'll and tersely stated and that briefs
actually be made brief.
"There seems to be a type of law
yer in every part of our country who
once he is retained in a Ease no mat
ter how trivial, sets to work with al
the ingenuity he possesses to impair
into the record a federal question
which he thinks may enable him tt
carry it to the supreme court of the
United States if he should prove un'
fortunate in the courts below" sale
the justice. He added that cases came
from every part of the earth, especi
ally from the District of Columbia.
He attributed this not to a desire
for local prestige, nor to a desire tt
postpone the day of ultimate settle
ment, but to "the widespread desire
to personally participate in the evo"
of constitutional jurisprud'
ence," which he characterized as lau,
dable but in many cases futile.
He added that while it was not fol-
him to eulogize the supreme court
which recently had been called "the
living voice of the constitution" the
scope of the court "has become sc
fateful that the effects of many Of
it's decisions upon the welfare Of oul
country are as decisive as the decis
i've battle in the World war"

yer declared, "the economic ma

that in his opinion, wage scales

it must be bettered before rates
can be safely reduced.
Most of the existing economic
depression is due to the "spread'
between the prices received by pro-
ducers of raw materials and the
prices paid out by consumers fol
finished goods Mr.. Hoover declared
Railroad rates, like wages, on
their present basis increases this
gap, he asserted, giving this in
creased spread" as the explana.
ton Of the lost purchasing power
Of the farm products.
Expressing his belief that an op-
portunity to cut rates would be
had in about a year, Mr.. Hoover,
who was called as a witness by the
United States chamber of COM
merce, said it would be an "eco-
nomic crime" if rate schedules
were not revised to give basic raw
material much cheaper t~ransporta-
tion as compared with finished and

~1DEPsON BANK
WILL OPEN DOORS
Plan to Continue Follows Enthusi-
astic Meeting Of the Stock
holders.

Anderson, Feb. 4-By unanimous
vote of stockholders here Friday it
yas decided to reopen the Peoples
bank of Anderson, which has been
.losed the last few weeks.
There were so many stockholders
present that they were unable to get
nto the room and intense interest
was manifested. James H. Craig,
state bank examiner, read a state
ment of the condition of the bank
which showed that the bank had ST.
051,O00 on deposit. Mr.. Craig said
the bank had two plans, one to re
open and the other to go into the
hands of a receiver. Only two more
weeks were available to take action.
When the resolution was stated that
the bank should reopen, it was car
ried unanimously.
There is yet about $4,000 in de-
posts that have not been signed, the
cards from depositors with 1901 900
who were willing to leave their mon.
ey in the bank for one year. The adj
dit;onal pledges will have to be Sc
cured.
A resolution was also adopted that
stockholders put up 20 per cent. of
he stockholders. Those not able
to put up the cash will have the op-
portunity of signing a joint note with
others to put up their pro rata.
The spirit of the meeting was OPP
timistic and the strong support of
the bank and put it on a good bust
ness basis.

PACKING COMPANY
LOST MUCH MONEY
HIGH FREIGHT RATES AND
REDUCTION IN MEAT PRICES
WIPE OUT PROFITS-LOST
MORE THAN FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS LAST YEAR

Chicago, Feb. 6.-Morris and
Company, packers, sustained a net
loss for the year ending October
20, 1921, of $5,O63,506.46, while
this loss and operating expenses re-
duced the surplus account from
1921, 796.2O to s1,299,255.4S'
according to the financial report
made public today.
Volume of sales was satisfactory
however, the report said, and cash
in bank is more than $2,5OO,0OO
and quick liabilities are about ST.
900, 900 while quick assets are
more than 100000, a ratio of
about 5 to. 1.
Commenting on the report, Mel
son Morris, chairman of the board
of directors, said:
"The year just closed has prob
ably been the worst year in the
history of the live stock and pack
ing business. The tremendous drop
in all live stock and wholesale
meat prices to below pre-war levels
has made it impossible to operate
except at a loss, a large part of
which of course was caused by re-
adjusting inventory values to the
new basis. -
prospects for the coming year
are better"
Mr.. Morris said the new wage
scale for packing house workers
would save the company $780,
600 annually, but that a further
cut may be necessary. The business
is also handicapped by high freight
rates, he said.
