umn one day last week, reviewing the
standing of the basketball teams of
Western Maryland, had this to say
concerning the Oakland and K o. G
| teams:
1t can be easily judged from the
records of the teams in this section
of the state that Walter Hoyt's Oak
land A. A.. Five and the K o. G.
Basketball Club, of this city are the
leading contenders for the Western
Maryland title this year.
Coached by Walter Hoyt, former
premier pivot man of the Keyser
Collegians, the Oakland team is hav-
ing one of the most successful sea
sons since its organization. Up to
the present date Oakland has partici-
pated in Is contests, winning II and
losing 8, which is quite a record to
be proud of. The record of the Gar
rett county outfit is a feather in
"Long Walters derby" for it was
through his strenuous coaching thar
he obtained the necessary punch and
results.
Manager Hinebaugh had a lengthy
conference with "kinky haired" Spik-
er, who supervises the work of the
KOGS, following the Oakland-K. o.
G. game at Jenvy's Hall on Monday
night relative to series between the
two clubs later in the season. Both
teams are real friendly and it was de.
cided that an agreement be drawn up
later on in the season governing a
series between the two quints.
Oakland has handed the following
teams setbacks so far this season:
X. o. G., 1917; w. & j. College, 49,
20; Pittsburgh Collegians, 46-11;
Altoona Overlands,. 1920; Grafton,
40-11; Wesleyan College, 1922; Rex
Club, Meyersdale, 26- 81; Laing Club,
Uniontown, 4S-35; Altoona, 1924;
Fairmont, 1925; Gettysburg Semi
narians, 34-15; Broadways, 1919.
The following teams have defeated
Oakland: King Club, Kingwood, 21-
10; Broadways, 61-35; K. o. G., 49,
25. two of the three defeats have
been suffered away from home while
the other was administered in Oak
land.
Manager Spiker's quint has won 7
out of II games to date. The games
won are Oakland, 1926; Altoona
Overlands, 1928; Wesleyan College,
1924; Ormsby Club, 1922; Williams
port, 4816; Gettysburg Seminar
ians, 48-16; Altoona, 1925. The
games lost are Alsatic Club, 21-20;
Oakland, 29-17; n. Y. Nationals, 26-
20; Hagerstown Elks, 47-42. Three of
the four games lost were played on
foreign floors.
Oakland redeemed its defeat with
the Broadways while the K. o. G.
did likewise with Oakland. The K. O.
G. is just Etching" 10 get a crack at
the Alsatia Club and Hagerstown
Elks in a return game here. The
knights claim they can beat the Ha-
gerstown team here even if they are
well padded" The fur should fly
when these teams clash as keen rival

TWO big towns of Western Maryland,
especially in basketball.

CONGRESS ADJoURNS

The SiXty.Seventh Congress has
come to u close after two regular
and two special sessions. The ad.
ministration and the congress have
had one of the most difficult tasks
ever given the nations leaders,
namely: to bring order out of po-
litical, industrial and agricultural
chaos. caused by the sudden ending
of the World War, and a most un.
usual period of initiation which
came with the war. 1t Is believed,
however, that as the result OF wise
leadership, which has insised on ie'
adjustment upon sound. perma-
nent basis, the crisis Of this country
is well passed. and that the present
upward trend will steadily continue.
Among other important measures
the Sixty-Scventh Congress has en-
acted emergency and general tariff
bills; several laws, both temporary
and permanent, widening credit ia.
cilities for farmers and stockmen,
including the revival of the war
finance corporation; good roads leg
islation: u general revenue law: and
the budget bill. Acting with the
President it has formally ended the
German war with honor to this
country, and the Senate has ratified
treaties, signed at the Washington
conference, on limitation of arna-
ments, called by President Harding,
which should have II profound effect
on the cause of world peace.

Faith and Confession are the twin

TO PREVENT TAX DoDa1Ne

The continued issuance of tux ex.
empt securities must be stopped or
the Federal government must find
some substitute for its surtaxes on
incomes, says Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon.
The issue. the secretary said. is
immediate and serious Its per,
sistence, he added, IL "distorting
our whole economic structure and
hampering the development of bus

country.
1T must be clear that graduated

The. eeretary declares there is net
a difference of one per cent in any

FAITH AND CONFESSION, TWIN
SISTERS Of SALVATION

We are glad even for those who fol.
low Christ secretly. but how much
better to confess him openly.
Let us put the real meaning into
this Easter season. Easter means
more than Dummies and eggs" 1t
celebrates the greatest event of the
church, the resurrection of the Lord.
1t should be time of personal con
fessiOn of him and personal work
for him. Paul and Silas, who suffer
ed for Christs' sac and even confess
ed him in prison, should encourage
us to confess him at all times.
1t is not easy to have faith in
Christ. Life Is so complex and full
of temptation. But the times are
hopeful. The world Is growing bet
ter all the time This Is especially
true in the heather world, where
tile lot of women and children is so
much better now than before Chris
tianity was taken to these dark
lands.
The pioneer problem today Is in
the city and not In the country.
THE city is the greatest storm CEN
ter of evil In our country.
Let us get the right view of the
Bible. 1t is not scientific com
pendulum but reveals the will of God
to help us in our work In home and
school In Canada during the war
the slogan read, Your Country and
Your King Needs You" This is no
lesstrue in America today-America
and King Jsus needs you. Wien
we realize that one will carry on
let us get out and tell the world
ed for Christs sake and even cnfess
hymn. Take our lips, our hands,
our feet and our lives
