The Washington-C Columbus Five, considered one of the strongest out fits in the junior class, was lucky to hand a l3-1O defeat to the Cardinals. Displaying none of the form they showed the day before. when they won q 59-O victory, the VIC quin- let still seemed to hold it's white washing iinx over it's opponents. for Hubay's shot was the only score of the initial period. But Avitable broke the hoodoo with a free toss, Zujko potped basket. and Jervls' foul made it Az, Cardinals. The winners braced then. and Hubay and Todzia put their team ahead again at "A.
 Another foul by Jervis was not damaging, especially since Todzla followed with a basket, but things were serious when shot by Dom- kowski made it 9-7 at the end Of the third period. Hubay put the winners five points ahead i'll the fourth quarter, only to have Avit- able pull his team up again by an awarded toss. Here Capodice, VIC captain, was forced out on fouls. and the last few minutes were exciting. Todzia's long shot seemed to sew up the game, but Boehner made one like it and the Cardinals kept up a bombardmcnt. They had wretched luck, however. and the end of the game found them still three points behind The summary:

YEARS TAKE TOLL 0F M|LL|0NA|RES
Three Per Cent Die Each Year,
 Actuary's Figures Show

Washington, April 4 (Pl-An esti- mate that per cent of the million aires of the country die annually was made yesterday by Joseph $. Mccoy, treasury actuary, in an ar ticle in the internal revenue news in which he placed the gross value of estates in this country that pass to heirs each year at s5,15o, o,ooo,ooo.
 AS to the mortality among mill lionaires,' Mccoy said, the record shows that 307 returns of net estates or 412 of gross estates, valued in ex- cess of s1.00o, GOO were made during 1927. During the last five years prior t0 1928, returns were made by 1.20l estates, that were taxed on the basis of over million dollars each, while 1,777 returns were made for gross estates valued each in eX- cess of a million dollars.
 We have d record for 1927 of the returns of 1o.7oo estates passing by death with a gross value of about s3,175, ,0oo,00o," the actuary continu- cd Funeral and administration ex- penses amounted to about $13l. .0O0.- o0O. : an amount almost eN- actly equal to this was left in charitable. public, and similar be- quests, that were exempt from taxa tion.'
 Mccoy said it was probable that about 5000 persons with gross es- tates between $50.000 and s100.oVo died during 1927" and added: This would mean at he present time, es- tates valued at a trifle less than S3, 300, 100000 pass annually by death within the United States. To these must be added some 3S5.0 900 individuals dying annually with smaller estates, that are also admin istered. valued at over sl,650, ,oo0.- 900. This means that grand total of some 100000 estates with a total value of about s5,1 50, ,000,000 are now passing annually by death and being administered within the United States.

 Games Tonight
 Ionlght's program will open with an intermediate games between the Whippets and Nationals. The Whip pets won the junior championship last year but moved into the high CT class this ime>because the twelve months have brought them added size and weight. They are consi,.- cred one of the strongest teams Tn the division and hold victories over many team in this city and about the state. The Nationals are not looked upon so favorably. but they have several good scorers and are planning to fool the prophets.
 The Blues-Phantoms game prom ised to be the best of the night. The Pllantoms are defending champions and will go into the fight with the same deadly fury which carried them over the prostrate forms of the fav- orltes to the title year ago. But it will be a grudge game, and the Blues, too, are determined to win it. Rivals of long standing, with sizab!c folloWings and with good records over the present season. the teams are fairly evenly matched, and a fierce struggle is anticipated.
 The Bearcats are scheduled to meet the Independents in the other senior game. but today there was quite possibility that the latter team would be unable to put five men on the floor and would have 10 forfeit. The Bearcats won the Of the Y. NJ. c. A. Saturday afternoon league, going through the schedule without a de- feat. The Independents are com posed of members of the Hish school squad of this season.
 The midget and junior sem-f7nals will be played at thu Boys club to- morrow afternoon.
