BEING PLAYED

The boys interclass basketball tour
nament at the high school started yes
-terday with two closely contested
games; the seniors nosing out the
juniors in the final minutes of play
1920, and the sophomores taking the
long end of a 1928 score against the
freshmen Both games showed flashes
of good work among the class teams
and today's games should bring to
light the champion for the season.
The seniors are doped to win the
tournament but they are likely to
strike hard Shedding when the meet
the fast moving sophomore team. The
juniors will tangle with the frosh and
decide the second place team. Seeley
was high point man for the seniors
yesterday and Demo made most OF
the juniuor points. Both teams were
working smoothly with the juniors
having the edge on passing, but bit
erratic in finding the hoop.
In the rosh-sophomore tilt, Powers
made most of the points for the second
year team and Hohstadt, Poitz and
Bouldin were about even in scoring for
the frosh. Keen rivalry is shown for
today's game between the seniors and
sophomores as they are the only teams
yet undefeated. The line-ups were as
follows:
Seniors: seeley and Pratt, forwards;
Causey, center; Nemeck and D. Cary
guards.
Juniors: Miller and Betty, forwards;
Demo, center; McKinnon and Cum
minis, guards
Sophomores: Warnock and Wilson,
forwards; Powers, center; Evans and
Chilson, guards; Maloney, sub.
Freshmen: Bouldin and Negri, for
wards; Young, center; Hohstadt and
Pine guards; Poitz, Beard, March and

season the candidates for baseball
and track at the high school are
numerous and active training will
begin next Monday when Coach
Fuzzy" Warren will develop a track
team and Coach Granger will taks

events, the southern Arizona meet
will be held in Tucson in the latter
part Of May. The Greenway meet in
Phoenix will be held in the latter
part of April and some of the best
talent will be sent from the local
high school. Douglas was repre-

In baseball the local school should
! have a good team. Many of the play
ers are still in school that played last
year. Pratt will again don the mask
and do the receiving. Clinton Cary,
who did some twirling last season has
developed a great deal and has plenty
of smoke on the horsehide this season.
Another pitcher to help out on the
mound will be discovered as the cam
didates report.
Elmo Herbert, the lanky first sacker,
is anxious to take the position he
played last year. Bill Franklin at the

New York, Dec. 16 Pt-Plans for reorganization of the National Coun- cil of Women will make 1928 n banner year for accomplishments in national women's organizations, hopes Dr. Valerie Parker, presi- dent, as she surveyed the work of the annual convention just held in New York.
 "The establishment of New York business office Of the council will give the officers a much better opportunity of carrying on their work" she said.
 "The newly adopted policy of be- coming a non-resoluting organiza- ton will facilitate the work of the council and tend to eliminate the petty squabblings that have pre- viously marked the work of our or ganzation.
 Thereafter the council will be solely a clearing house for the 34 member societies. It will be an or ganiZation where every member group can see and hear of the work of all other women's national or ganizations and where all material will be available for use"

GOVT. SPECIALISTS
 IMPROVING WASTES
Hope to Find Good in Refuse
 From Farms

, Washington, Dec. 16. Pl-Bureau of Standards research specialists in less than six months have made distinct progress in their special investigation to find a profitable outlet for waste products of the farm.
 When Congress made S50,000 available for this work last July 1t acted in the belief that permanent agricultural relief lay in showing the farmer how he could get more money for his crop through devol- opment of industrial by-products.
 After a survey of farm wastes Dr. W. E. Finley. chief of the bu- reau's division of organic and tibrous materials, in cooperation with other agencies. put specialists 10 work on four major lines of re- search, concentrating on corn stalks. peanut shells, cotton burs and cotton seed hulls.
 The huge corn crop Is the out standing example of farm waste in the United States. More than so per cent of the plant is lost, despite that excellent methods for making fiber wall board from the stalks have been known for some time, and there Is a growing market for this material, due to its develop : ment from sugar cane waste. The bureaus main problem here was to get accurate information on the cost of production.

Women Smokers Bring
 Gain in Cigarettes

Richmond, Va, Dec. 16 P-The feminine smoker Is responsible in a marked degree for an unusual in- crease in consumption of ciga- rettes, says T. M. Darlington, chairman of the board of directors of the Tobacco Association of the United States.
 Fully 25 per cent of the increased demand for this form of tobacco is the result of women smoking, he adds. The 16,000, 1000 cigarettes manufactured in the United States in 1914 increased to S5,000, 100000 in 1926 and probably will reach 93,0o0,0 900 when the totals of 1927 are assembled, he believes.

In cooperation with Iowa State

In cooperation with Iowa State College an efficient plant has been set up and it is expected to begin operation soon on a semi-commer- cial basis. IL will be manned large ly by bureau experts and directed by Prof. O. R. Sweeney Of the col lege. Dr. Finley expects 1t to dem onstrate that more than go per cent of the cornstalk can be utiliz- ed in production Of good wall board, the remaining waste being water and other solubles.
 In addition, the scientists hope to work out method for treating the stalk so that the gum it con tains will be saved and automatic ally provide q natural binder, elim- mating the necessity of adding resins.
 Once the economy Of the method is demonstrated Dr. Finley believes that commercial plants having an annual capacity of 100,00o tons of board can be so distributed through the corn belt that each could be supplied with it's raw ma terial from farms within a radius of 20 miles. The lack of timber in that section, he thinks, would give them a good nearby market.
 The investigation Of peanut shells presented a somewhat diff ferent problem. Although 1t was known that certain non-edible sugars could be extracted from them, it remained for the bureau to find the best process. That work has progressed to the point where it is now possible to take out more than 65 per cent of the shell, by weight, in the form of xylose. from which certain organic acids can be obtained by oxidation. The bureau hopes 10 demonstrate that these can be made useful 10 the soft drink and tanning indus tries. The residue can be made into wall board simply by pressing.
