V0CEL ON POINTS

Fargo, N. D., Feb. tP)-Billy
Pctrollc of Fargo, after knocking
down Sammy Vcgel for cttint of
eight in the second and count Of
nine in the tenth, lost the decision
last night in his Madison Square
Garden debut in New York city.
Under the New York boxing COM
missions ruling, the fighter with the
greater number Of rounds to his
credit is given the decision. Vogel
won the greater number of rounds,
but there is no question as to which
man was the stronger at the end.
Vogel. who chose to stand off his foe
with left jabs, was hanging on dcs-
peratcly at the bell, and on the verge
Of knockout.
Gets Ovation

was greeted with a storm Of dlsap-

the din that the announcer could not

The Fargo Express" dropped his
man in the second with terrific
right to the jaw. His tenth round
knockdown was scored with Il left
hook to the same point.

HELEN WILLS
TRYING OUT A
NEW SERVICE
Has Less Speed Than Her
Former Offering But Takes
Twisting Bounce

Beaulicu. France, Feb. 2O.--(P)---
Helen Wills is trying out service
with a twisting bounce, possibly for
use against Suzanne Lenglen should
they meet in the Nice tournament
next month. She used it yesterday
in two singles matches which she
won with ease.
The service is made with less speed
than her usual first offering. but ii
causes the ball to take twisting
bounce and her opponent to reach to
the extreme outside on the forehand.
When the ball is returned it gener-
ally reaches the net or just into the
court for a prompt smash to kill.
With it Helen made 10 service aces
yesterday.
Suzanne has fully recovered from
her near breakdown, due to her
strenuous match with Miss Wills last
Tuesday, and says she is as good as
ever.
1t now seems that the second
match between the American and
French champion is certain to bt
played March IL or IA.

PLENTY OF
SCORING IN
BASKETBALL
Thirty Points Oft-times In
sufficient to Bring Vic
tory Nowadays
By ART CARLSON

Basketball scores are mounting.
They're getting higher all the time.
"A few wears ago 20 points were usu-
ally sufficient to win Now team
invariably has to hit we'll above the
3O-mark to have chance. And even
then it's no sure bet.
Just take glance at the scores
being turned in by Western Confer
ence teams. Many of them have
chalked up combined total Of more
than 20 points for an evenings work.
An Example
Northwestern has furnished a con-
crete. though rather tragic example.
The Purple has hit the 3O-figure con-
sistently since the start of the Big
Ten wrangle. But it has met with
little success.
Against Michigan the Evanston en-
semblc scored 80 points. Michigan
won by field-goal margin. Against
Purdue, Northwestern Tailed 35. Pur-
due won by three points. Against In
diana the Purple ran up 81 counters
But Indiana won by eight PORTS.
There were three tits Northwest
ern dropped in a row. 1t scored
enough to win all of them. It aver.
aged exactly 33 to the fracas. But
couldn't exc out single victory.
/ haven't the figures at hand but
/ am of the opinion Northwestern
has scored more points at this writ
ing than any outfit in the Western
conference. And yet the Purple is
flounderipg around near the bottom
of the pile.
Other teams have. been bit more
fortunate than Northwestern. But as
stated. many have been forced into
the Alate 3Oss" to pull out victories
Foul Shooting Important
Strict enforcement of the playing
rules has tended to boost the scores,
too. Not so far back . total of 10
free losses was . good average. Foul
shooting didn't play very big part
in. the game.
s8ut it's different now. About as
many fouls are being converted into
poirlts as there are field goals chslked

81 personal fouls were called. Just

checking. charging. and so on. Some

Too Mucl, Whistle footing
Intentional rough play should
bring a penalty, OF course. But those
in charge should not draw too fine
a line. footing the whistle for some
infraction of the playing code slows
up the game. 1t takes away action,
one of the main things in basketball.
Needless to state. when 30 or more
fouls are called the game loses much
of its luster for the fans that enjoy
it for the thrills it gives them.
Recently ! saw a professional
league contest in which as fouls were
inflicted There were q points ac-
crucd from the free throw line. But
few field goals were thrown. The field
goal is the big thrill; a long toss from
mid -court, n clever shot from under
meath the hoop after pretty pass
that's what the crowd wants to see.
The game | refer to turned out to
be quite a nice exhibition of foul
shooting ability. That's not basket
ball!
Giving the players little more
leeway before lacking on a penalty
would place less of a premium on
free-tossing experiences, would fur
rish more action and would make
pocket tabulators excess equipment at
the games.

RAISE IN FREIGHT RATE ON GRAIN
WOULD SERIOUSLY AFFECT FARMING

Its position in contending against
readjustment of grain rates in. the
northwest as proposed by an examiner
for the Interstate Commerce commits.
sion is contained in a letter sent by
the North Dakota railroad board To
the Interstate Commerce commission
The question of freight rates on
grain in the northwestern territory
came before the Interstate CONNIE rec
commission in the report of an cx-
amincr who heard the case of the
Southwestern Millers league w. the
Atkinson, Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
road. The Southwestern millcrs con-
tended that their rates were too high
and pointed to the Northwestern
grain rates as an example. They
were paying II cents per 100 pounds
from the Southwestern district to
Chicago.
The examiner reported that the II
cent rate was justified but that an
adjustment should be made to pre-
vent inequality between the north
west and southwest in freight rates
on grain.
The North Dakota commission i'm
terpreted this as a declaration that
northwestern grain rates should be
increased and asked permission to
file an intervening petition.
The Boards Position
In outlining its position to the In
terstate Commerce commission E. M.
Hendricks, traffic expert for the
board, said:
"All rates on wheat and flour from
North Dakota to Chicago are made
by adding to the full local rate from
North Dakota to Minneapolis, the
proportional rate of 13 cents from
Minneapolis to Chicago, and this is
also the basis for rates to points
east Of Chicago. The price which
the farmer receives for his wheat at
the country elevator in North Dakota
is based on the price at Minneapolis
less freight and handling charges.

PNEUMONIA CHIEF

Grippe Attacks Weaken Body's Re-
sistance to Germs Of Pneumonia
An Colds Should be Treated
Promptly.

Deep grippy colds have been unus-
ually prevalent here this winter. The
situation is fairly general through
out the States. In some sections
these colds arc called ";nflucn.a,"
but the majority Of health Officers
report that they are much milder

and intestinal complications such az
hiccoughs. nausea diarrhea. etc.
Colds are too often neglected until
they have lowered the vitality suf-
ficiently to permit the lurking germs.
which cause pneumonia. bronchitis
and influenza to attack the body.
Don't Take Chances
The only safe plan is to attack a
cold right at the beginning. A hot
fost bath, a laxative, sweat and q
vigorous application of Vicks Vapo-
Rub at bedtime over throat and chest
will often break up cold overnight.
For hours after Vicks is applied

are inhaled directly into the infected
air passages. At the same time it
warns and stimulates the skin like Il
poultice, drawing out" the soreness
and pain.
It is an obstinate cold indeed that
can resist this direct, double action.
Vicks VapOr Steam
If the air passages are badly
stopbcd up, try the "teakettle and
tent" treatment. This method,-fully
explained in the directions--consists
briefly, of vaporizing Vicks in q tea
kettle and arranging newspaper
".tent" over the patients head so that
the combined warm steam and medi-
Gated vapors can be inhaled.
Mothers especially appreciate Vicks
for the frequent colds Of children. as
it can be used freely and often. with
out disturbing the digestion-you
"just rub it on" Over 81 million
jars are used yearly. ADV.

ding charges. If the proportional
rate of Ii cents on wheat and flour
from Minneapolis to Chicago is i'm
creased, it will affect the price which
the North Dakota farmer receives
for his wheat ut the country cleya-
tor.
There have recently been heard
by the commission at Fargo, N. D.,
seven cases involving the rates on
grain and grain products, including
wheat and flour, from North Dakota
to Duluth, Minneapolis and points be-
yOnd. These cases were heard on q
common record. The carriers now
are seeking substantial increases in
the rates on wheat and flour from
a large number of stations in North
Dakota to Minneapolis. Duluth and
points beyond. The other cases are
complaints of various parties seeking
reductions in the present rates.
Cannot Stand Increase
"In the above cases the economic
condition Of agriculture was fully dis
closed and it was shown that the
farmer is not in position to bear

ent Is cent proportional rate from
Minneapolis to Chicago is increased,
it will undoubtedly have a serious
effect on agriculture and add to the
farmers difficulties. We believe that
if the. Hoch-Smith resolution means
anything at all, it means that the
freight rates on agricultural prod
ucts should be reduced, not in
creased. and it is our position that If
the rates on wheat and flour from
Missouri river points to Chicago and
other points are unduly prejudical to
shippers at such points and unduly
preferential to shippers at Mime
apolis and Duluth, that such preju-
dice should be removed by reducing
the rates from the Missouri river
points and not by increasing the
rates from Minneapolis and Duluth"
