AUTOS, BUSES !
SLASH STREET !
CAR EARNINGS
Reason Given in Annual Re-
port for No 1926 Divi-
dendS.

Decreased earnings, due principals
ly to constantly increasing use of
automobiles and to serious losses
from bus competition, made it inn
possible for the Indianapolis Street
Railway Company to pay dividends
on preferred stock in 1926, Secretary
Joseph A. MCGOWAN reported at the
annual stockholders meeting this
morning.
The annual report also outlined
the proposed purchase of the Peoples
Motor Coach Company bus lines by
the company for 100000, turned
down by the public service commits
sion and now pending decision on
rehearing.
Stockholders were TO vote upon
directors.
Thirty-three Lines Operated J
Thirty-three bus lines are oper-
ated by the company, according to
the report, which comments:
This service, while gretaly accom-
modating the public and protecting
the company from further inroads
of competing bus lines. has lacked
patronage and resulted in a net
loss from operation, including de-
probation of $203,50704 for the
year 1926"
Peoples Motor Coach Company
lines, under management of Presi-
dent A. Smith Bowman, showed a
net earning of more than $4,000
on the forty buses operated in the
same period.
In petition for merger it is con-
tended that elimination of compe-
tition and coordination of lines
would result in huge savings.
Gross earnings of the railway
company for 1926 were $5,518,794,
the report showed, and deficit Of
1903, recorded.

A long list of property improves
ments was shown. Five new SUBJ
stations were reported nearly COM

and more are to be added. Pension

came from the company.
There are 1900 stockholders in
the street car company and 800 in
the Terre Haute, Indianapolis 81

Membership in
N. C. Conference
May Be Cut to &

Sioux City, Ia. May 19.-tP-
Reduction of membership in the
North Central conference from 10 to
six schools and recent changes in
basketball nlaying rules will be the
major subjects for consideration
when conference athletic directors
meet here tomorrow and Saturday.
Reasons for considering reduc-
ton in the number of schools in the
conference are many If Des Moines
university is merged with Drake Uni
versity it will automatically drop out
Nebraska Wesleyan has had trouble
in scheduling games and may drof
out. The new members. Hastings Col.
lege Of Nebraska and st. Thomas Col
lege Of st. Paul, taken in last fall
have shown little apparent interest
in the conference and other schools
have shown little enthusiasm fol
them. They also may be dropped.
If these four are dropped the con-
ference would then consist of the
following six schools: Creighton Uni
versity, Morningsidc. South Dakota
University. South Dakota State, North
Dakota University and the North
Dakota Agricultural College.
Advocates of the reduction contend
that smaller conference would per-
NIT more compact schedules with an
attendant increase in enthusiasm and
interest.
Basketball schedules for next sea-
son will be arranged at the meeting
and changes in basketball playing
rules discussed.
