When HUPMOBILB announced its
radical price reductions on allmodels,
Lieut.. Reginald D. Thomas, aviator
of the United States Naval Reserve,
was one of the very first purchasers.
He snapped up the opportunity. He
drove away with a smart new
HUPMoBILE cabriolet and fat cash
saving in his pocket.
And he volunteered this statement:
"Specifcations of materials used
lin the HUPMOBILE compare
more closely to those used in the
best aeronautical engines, than
to those of any other moderately
priced Car that has ever been
brought to my attention"
Lieutenant Thomas knows motors
and motor cars. For twelve years he's
trusted his life to motors in the air.
Anything mechanical is an open book
to him. He won the Schif trophy for
the greatest number of flying hours

SAN ANTONIO, Tex. OP)-Student
aviators of the future may use planes
equipped with an interphone, a device
enabling instructors to communicate
with novice pilots while flying.
A board of officers from Brooks Field,
Kelly Field and the Air Corps training

acy Of Chicago was on today with

Meet Might Lose
National Aspect
Two Thousand Educators Have
Expressed DisapproyaI; As.
ISOLATION Meets Monday

Chicago, Feb. 2O-(AP)-If the
decision Of 1000 high school princi-
pals is any criterion, the Univer-
sity of Chicago's prep school basket
ball tournament will be shorn of it's
national aspect at the meeting of the
National Federation of High School
associations in Cleveland Monday.
Two-thirds Of the 1000 educators
have expressed their disapproval of
tournaments that tend to "ovcrem-
phasize" high school cage Journeys,
naming the Chicago classic specific
ally. If the federation takes away
the national aspect of the Chicago
tournament by refusing its sanction,
other Interstate high school tour
namcnts also are apt to go into dis
card.
Meanwhile the University Of Chi.
cago is marking time, awaiting &C.
tion Of the federation. The 1929 tour
nament, which will be held the first
week in April, has already beer
sanctioned and any action at the
Cleveland meeting will not take eff.
feet until next year.

Scoring Is Less
As Hockey Teams
Approach Finish
Boston Beats Lowly Pittsburgh
Pirates; Ottawa Defeats
Detroiters

New York, Feb. 20.-(R-As the Ma
tional Hockey league season goes
down the home stretch the complaints
about the lack Of scoring are due to
increase.
Last nights three games provide a
good sample of the closing battles.
Only five goals were scored by the
six teams involved. Ottawa cut loose
with two counters before Detroit
could get started and wound up with
a 2-l victory, their tenth OF the sea-
son.
Boston beat the lowly Pittsburgh
Pirates to 0 and made its second
place in the American group safe by
q viewpoint margin. Eddie Shore,
husky Boston defense star. scored the
only goal on q much-disputed play.
The Pirates claimed that the referees
whistle had blown before Shore shot,
and a penalty to Hib Milks Of Pitts
burgh backed up their claim, but the
goal was allowed. =
Before the dispute ended the police
were called upon to protect one OF
Bostons noisily loyal rooters from 9
Pittsburgh player who tried to climb
into the stands.
In the ..,eadline battle Of the Inter-
national group the Montreal Marooni
downed the New York Americans
to 0. The result gave the Maroons

OF course the final diagnosis and
the prescribed remedies will be up to
the rules surgeons, who will meet in
New York some two weeks later.
In the meantime the American bas-

Eliminate the Tip-Off?
Sentiment seems to be cryst .llizing
against the tip-off at center. How
ever. prevailing sentiment seems to
be for the preservation Of the tip-off

Conference Splits
Seem Unavoidable

rumblcs are heard from the Pacific
coast every now and then which tell
Of some disagreement with things as
they are In that group.
The four big schools of the Pacific
coast-Stanford, Washington, South

fall decided to play each other in
football every year for the next five
Years.
This pact has handicapped the six
other and smaller colleges in arrang-
ing q schedule that would assure q
financial profit. The big schools, 1t
is said, ignore som: Of the smaller
ones, and this doesn't sit will.
The talk goes that Oregon State,

what the rumpus is about. but the

Today the Bismarck jewelers. bas-

to the Bismarck -Mandan champion
ship.
And it bases its claim on its record
of two wins over the Mandan Train

onds of play at the Bismarck high
school gymnasium last night dropped
in a field goal, and revamped Jew
cler lineup eked out Is to "A win
over the Trainers. They had beaten
the Trainers at Mandan q to II

Because an Is to s lead enjoyed at
the half by the Bismarck outfit had
gradually dwindled away under the
bbmbardment Of Wickum. Heidi. and
Eelbing, Thornbcrg'5 winning goal
was all the more valuable.
Trainers re Helpless
The Trainers made but ono field
goal in the first half.
Coming back with a rush III the
last half. the Trainers in the final
quarter took % to q lead. kreifels
took it back to the jewelers. with two
free throws. The Trainers counted
another goal from the floor to jump
back into the lead. and Thornberg
whipped the nets with his winning
shot,
Thornberg, who has been off form
recently, came through with five field
goals last night. Kreifels replaced
Slattery at center at the beginning
Of the contest, the Irisllman going
back to guard. where he performed
well. Thornberg took Kriefels' place
at forward and Elmer Benscr played

A glance at the seasons record
shows that the jewelers. at present
have a good claim to the inter : city
