and don't forget the added cost
OF the law enforcement machinery
required to send those men to pris-
on and back TO prison." he pointed
out.
Gov. Moody said he will offer no
separate prison location plan from
the majority locating report that
favors an industrial prison in 20
miles Of Austin. He will help get
that on the statute books he said.
THIS would use all idle prison labor
H. The construction work.
But he Will. if the legislature fails
30 locate a prison somewhere, i'm
mediately call on the highway de-
partment TO tell him where it wants
TO build rs or 100 miles Of highway.
He viii send the convicts TO do the
grading and ditch-digging work,

Figures Compared

Gov. Moody, returning from a sur
prise inspection of the prison system,
said 1T is a disgrace TO Texas" and
announced the actual losses OF the
system last year was $780, 00
above the total production OF the
entire system. The loss represented
% PEI cent of the worth of the
whole system. which Is in~ventoried
at less than S5.000.O00.
Gov. Moody compared this loss
with the 81, 300 900 a year used IN
operating the University OF Texas.
finding 1t was 20 per cent OF the
university education bill. The addi-
tional money spent that is earned
by the system puts the penitentiary
costs above the university expenses.
. Gov. Moody found Ills men hous-
ed in the Huntsville walls, he said.
The walls a accommodate only
about 500 reasonably. Over 600 were
entirely idle. with nothing in the
system for them 10 do.
A bright spot in the disgraceful
picture. he said. was the clean. ade-
quate food being given the convicts.
He figured out that the state lost
in addition 10 the income OF the sys-
tenn last year. 81 per day for every
convict in the system, which must
be provided out OF taxpayers pock-
cts.

The contest got under way about 10:30.
 Without much ceremony, the New Britain team. putting up an impcne- trable defense, started a passing attack that had the visitors fairly dizzy before tho game was under way very long. Collins opened SCOT ing with two foul shots ono after the other and this was the signal for the entire team to start pop ping the ball through the rim. while the opposition failed to get through for anything but very hurried shots
 New Britain rolled up total of 10 points before Schenectady scored. Picken had gone through for several shots but none was sue ccssful in registering At the eight and half minute mark, Husta brother of the famous guard with the Cleveland Rosenblums, sank Schcnec1ady's first basket.

Outplayed from start to finish, the Burritt basketball team went down to defeat in one of the biggest sur priscs of the entire season in the preliminary game at the Stanlcf Arena Saturday night When the Auburn A.

The final score was 2S to G3.
 Probably the Burritts figured that the opposition would be rather easy.
