of seven wins SO far this season,
Washington and Lees basket ball team
is on its second multiple trip of the
season, meeting West Virginia in Hunt

Successful in their previous trip, on
which they toppled Duke, previously

Generals followers are hoping that
they are not riding for q fall' before
the equally fast competition assured
from the Mountainers and Old Liners.
Both of these fives fell before Wash
ington and Lee in 1929, West Virginia
in the only game played, and Maryland
in two encounters. While Stadvold's
Mountaineers have met with two or
three reverses this year, all have been
by close calls, and Maryland's strength,
handled by Burton Shipley, is well
known.
The Generals, with four out OF five
men from last years crack squad back.
are showing the benefits of experience
in playing together for the second year
and, in several games where high run
of points was not needed, have shown
evidences of controlling their energy

play never begins until they under
stand the games fundamental moves
and the battle of wits that they in
turn bring about on the floor.
The big idea in the cut back is
to overcome the basic principle of
defense, which Is that every man
should keep between his opponent
and the basket. Thus, as in the
upper panel, when No. l makes a
break for the basket, his opponent
will usually precede him in the
rush.
AS No. / nears the basket he
makes q quick pivot and returns to
about the foul line. where he re-
ceives long pass from q teammate.
This quick change of direction
leaves No. IL opponent between
him and the Basket, but back of
him. No. | becomes the focus of the
attack that Ia now launnhed.

basket ball championship may
be gained tonight, when the Terrapins
meet the team that won it last year
North Carolina State-at College Park.
State doesn't bring the same lineup
that whipped a strong field at Atlanta,
although the Wolfpack has won six of
nine games in the current campaign, as
in 1928-1929.
However, in each of its three defeats
the margin was close, and State is
reckoned one Of the most formidable
teams that will compete in the Dixie
tournament, starting late this month.
A victory for the Terrapins tonight
would be encouraging, to say little.

three points, 81 to "a.
These are the only defeats on Ran
dolph- Macon's record for the season.
In the first 10 minutes the virginians

held an advantage of 1913. George
Washington put on scoring squirt and,
with two minutes to 60, had deadlocked
the score at 24-all, two field goals by
Jeweller helping lot. Castell sent
the Colonials ahead with a free toss
and, with 20 seconds to go, clinched the
game with field goal, a snowbird

Cuss Words in the Record

Senators who want TO the tariff bill to give
customs officers broad authority in excluding alleged
indecent literature from foreign countries doubtless
will have something to say about the latest outburst
of their colleague Senator Coleman Blease
BleaSe has devoted much time of late to de-
nunciation of law enforcement conditions in the
tonal capital On Tuesday BleaSe, to prove the
moral depravity of Washington, went far as to
read from the floor excerpts from a book-'the
dirtiest thing" he ever had read
Blease cited cuSs words and all, and, horror of
horrors his quotations appeared by request in the
dignied pages of the Congressional Record. Blease
said he had obtained the book in Washington and
had sent it to the office of the United States district
attorney.
What wonder, will be his punishment? The
Congressional Record is sent to libraries and schools
throughout the country, where innocent men, women
and children may peruse it at will 1t has a wide
general circulation, probably much wider than the
book from which Bease quoted.
When Representative Blanton of Texas, now
happily retired, read cuss words from a letter and
got them into the record. his expulsion was
threatened and he was reprimanded by formal vote.
We await with interest the action of the Senate
purists

Dispose of the Tariff

The senate, reassembng after the holidays, has
gone back to work on the tariff, with leaders de-
termined that it shall have precedence over other
matters.
Their intention is praiseworthy. year has
elapsed since the house ways and means committee
began tariff hearings, and it is time the question is
disposed Of If agriculture and business to bene
fit through revision it is desirable that this revision
be made effective possible.
Little will be gained through further protracted
debate The lines have been drawn and the coali-
ton of progressive Republicans and Democrats has
demonstrated that the bill will be rewritten in the
senate according to its demands The wool sched-
ule is under immediate consideration with the highly
controversial sugar schedule in the offing.
At best, considerable time must elapse before the
senate has completed its work, and after that will
come the task of adjusting differences with the house.
ExtraneouS matters should not be permitted to
shunt the tariff aside It may be difficult to keep
prohibition off the floor since members beginning
to worry about the November elections but the pres
ent controversy has supplied little toward solution
of the prohibition problem; and after all, it is
perennial and can wait
