Off the
Blackboard
By Norman E. IsdGcs =

TINE big drive is just around the
Il corner, and most of the Cos
sip among the high schoolers is
pointed directly at the chance Of
their respective teams for the State
crown. And, strangest of all, Indi-
annapolis is figuring prominently in
the chatter. For Technical is rated
among the top-notchefs.
Il +. Il
One misled sports scribe, who
evidently hasn't seen any of
Techs performances this year,
pulled the wise one today that the
ArsenaIites' passing and team
work under the basket can be
improved. If Tim Campbell can
improve on those two departments
of play he's the eighth wonder of
the world. For Tech today stands
forth as the best-passing team in
Indiana and the team which ham
dies itself with the most dizziness
and SureneSS under the basket.
Blackboard has sliced his list OF
chest teams" down to an even ten.
Here they are:
Anderson LOganspOrt
Bedford Muncie
Columbus MartinsVille
Frankfurt Technical
Horace Mann VincenneS

TRUE to our prediction of last
Friday. Bedford slumped over
the weekend and hit the skids in
Saturdays four cornered blind
tourney at Washington. The Stone
City lads were eliminated in the first
round by Washington, 80 to 10, and
lost to Martinsville in the consola-
ton round, 80 to a. VincenneS
dropped the Artesians, 81 to 10, in
the first round and took the meas
ure of Washington in the final game,
Is to IA. 1t was just about time for
Bedford'S slump. And now, we figure
the Iveymen will be just that much
tougher at tournament time.
n
Cliff Wells is getting his LOgans-
port Berries into ripe form and
Logan defeated Muncie in the
blind tourney at that city, 80 to %,
losing to Frankfort, 80 to %, in
the final contest. Frankfort
knocked out Kokomo in the first
round, 38 to rs. Muncie edged out
KokOmo, 38 to SO in the cOnSOla-
ton. With Logan getting tougher,
DeIphi's chances of getting into
the select sixteen at finals time
appear simmer. The two teams
probably will clash in the region
ais.

NOGALES ON WAY
TO COAST CITY

Jose Vasconcelos, who was defeat
ed at the recent Mexican election
for president, arrived on the border
yesterday and crossed the interna-
tional line into the United States
at 8 a. m. He was escorted to the
portal by detail of soldiers of the
Mexican army.
Vasconcelos is stopping at the
Montezuma Hotel until today when
he will proceed to Los Angeles to
spend the Christmas holidays with
his family.
Sefior Vasconcelos in a statement
to a representative Of the Nogales
international said that he was not
the defeated candidate but the
cheated candidate. He further
said that the first act of the drama
is over and that the second awaits
upon the decision of the Mexican
people, who, he feels, are far from
satisfied with the results of the elec-
ton.
He said that prior to the election
he was held virtually a prisoner at

Reduction in long distance tele-
phone day rates. which it Is eSti-
mated will save the public $4,000
annually, will be in effect Jan. l,
1880, according to j. S. Jennings,
local manager for the Mountain
States Telephone and Telegraph
Company. 1t is the fourth such re-
duction in little more than three
years.
Word of this reduction, which will
apply throughout the Mountain
States territory and generally
throughout the Bell System, was re-
ceived by the local manager from
F. H. Reid, Denver, president of
the company.
The new rates affect station to
station" calls-that is, calls on
which you are willing to talk to
anyone at the called telephone.
The last long distance rate re-
duction was effective Feb. l, 1929
and similarly meant an annual
saving of about $5,0O0,O0O to the
public. This was preceded by another
reduction on Dec, /, 1927 which
meant saving of about $1,5O0,0OO.
and one on Oct. 1, 1926 saving So

To Scimitar, crack racer of the
Bowman -Crofton, Aqua Caliente
Stable, and winner Of last seasons
classic Tijuana Cup, went the honor
of being the first thoroughbred to
circle the course. An outstanding
jockey was astride him, and for the
first time the thunder Of hoofs was
heard on what is declared by ex-
perts to be one of the finest tracks
in America. A bunch of racers then
followed Scimitar's example.

Little Carmen Saldamando, IL
year old daughter of Gotta Salda-

TOMATO IMPORTS AMOUNT TO
llO,OOO,OOO POUNDS YEARLY,
SAYS DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE
Imports Green Peas From West Coast
Of Mexico Increase In Past
Three Seasons

, the Mexican west coast, Cuba, Ber.
muda and the Bahamas amounted tc
approximately 161,00O,0O0 pounds in
the 1928-29 season November l to
June 30, as compared with 125,000,-
900 pounds in 1925-26.
Tomatoes, says the bureau, have
been the most important item in the
winter vegetable imports, an aver
age of more than 110,000,000 pounds
of this vegetable having been i'm
ported per year in the past thre"
years. Most of the tomatoes come
from the Mexican west coast.
Imports of green peas have in.
creased in the last three seasons,
practically all shipments coming
from the Mexican west coast and
aggregating more than 100000
pounds last season.
Mexico and Cuba ship practically
all of the green peppers imported
into the United States in the winter
months.
Most of the celery comes from
Bermuda in March, April, May and
June, and shipments from there in
1928-29 aggregated 100000 pounds.
The yearly average for the three
years 1926-27, 1928, 192S-29 be-
ing 100000 pounds.
An increasing import trade In
early potatoes from Cuba and Ber-
muda is reported, the imports in
the last three seasons having aver
aged 10,843 900 pounds, or about 181,-
600 bushels per year..
Among the American areas which
are in competition with foreign
sources Of winter vegetables are the
east coast of Florida and the low
er Rio Grande Valley in Texas.
The shipping seasons of the Mex
ican west coast, Cuba, Bermuda and
Bahama coincide with those of the
American areas, but movement in
volume from the foreign sources be-
gins somewhat earlier than from the
domestic areas.

CROWD AT SALE
BREAKS Ell PASO
STORE WINDOW

That it pays to advertise and pays
well was thoroughly proven Friday
when a big annual sale got under
way at the progressive Ell Paso
Store.
Using thousands of handbills, and
double page advertisements in Tues

tional, the sale was well advertised
and drew record breaking crowd.
The crowd became SO large that
when the doors of the store opened
for the sale the people. packed to-
gether like sardines" in front of the
establishment, showed in q large
expensive plate glass window. No
one was hurt.
"It was the first time we were ev-
er unable to handle q crowd at any
of our sales, said Jake Capin, Sat-
urday, who added that the number
of buyers on the opening day and
succeeding days has been larger
than ever before in the history Of

BEFORE THE new CONGRESS
Many Other Matters, Including Flood
Control, Farm Relief And Radio
Legislation On Agenda

ing the senate provision against the
flexible provision and balancing the
agricultural and industrial rates to
point where they would be signed
by the President.
These authorities place little stock
in the suggestion Mr.. Hoover would
veto the bill merely because 1t went
against his wishes in the matter Of
the flexible tariff.
The optimists who subscribe to
the compromise belief, are confid-
ent the tariff will be law before
spring.
New Dry Law Fight
Prohibition arises as an issue In
nearly every session of congress, but
it will be approached by this one
from a different angle. Heretofore,
there have been battles in debate
between the So-called vets and the
drys over proposals to modify the
prohibition law or to repeal 1t.
This fight is to be over how high
the enforcement appropriations
should be boosted, whether enforce
ment should be transferred from the
Treasury to the Justice department
and whether the buyer Of liquor
should be made by legislation equal
ly guilty with the seller.
Other Matters On Agenda
Aside from these three major SUBJ
jecJs there are many of Importance,
including the following:
Annual appropriation bills enlarg-
ing the flood control and farm re-
lief expenditures for next year.
Proposed financial legislation, in
cluding a threatened investigation
speculation on the stock exchange.
Railroad consolidation as pro-
posed in the FesS bill now pending
before the house and senate inter-
state commerce committees. E..
Proposed legislation on the de-
velopment of inland waterways.
Naval building appropriations.
Radio legislation, including con-
sideration of the Couzens bill for
creation of a Communications Com
mission.
