OLYMPIC SKI TEAM
 TRYOUTS SUNDAY

With almost foot of snow and ideal weather prevailing, President Donald T. Warner of the Salisbury Outing club Thursday predicted that records would go tumbling Satur- day and Sunday. when the fifth an- nual Connecticut championship ski tournament is held in connection with the preliminary tryouts for the United States Olympic Ski team at Salisbury.
 Salisbury Hill. scene of the thrill ing events has been speeded up by moving the take-off back more than 20 feet. Jumpers who have been warming up for the contes.> the past few days report that the hill is amazingly fast. The races will be held Saturday at ? D. m. over q 11-mile course, and the jumping will take place at the same hour Sun day Spectators attending the meet are advised to wear artics to ward off the extreme cold. The mercury drops well below the zero mark in Salisbury, but 1t is "Gry" cold which is highly exhilirating.

Second, there is Rogers Hornsby. who faces the job of restoring to the | Cubs the confidence and spirit that ! fled in the waning days of the pen | nant struggle of 1890. Third, there is Shono Collins, se- | lected by Bob Quinn as the man to lead the Boston Red Sox out of the | dank basement of baseball-and Col 1 lins faces not so much a job as q nightmare.
 Big Things Expected Marse Joe starts under the handi- cap of his record. After his remark able showing with the Cubs a mir acle of some sort will be expected of his handling of the Yankees. The | team he is taking south has power, but there are glaring weaknesses on defense. He must worry about catchers, left fielder, the infield and the pitchers.
 The club scored more than 1000 runs in 1880 and finished third. Mccarthy must find a couple of gentlemen in whose feet there is no lead to handle the duties around second base. LaZzeri may be moved over to second again. Before the season is over Joe probably will
 
 third to second for lefthanded bat ters. and back again for the right handlers.
 About the Cubs! How will the Cubs go for the Rajah? Will the new pitchers, such as Baecht from the Pacific coast stand up under big league fire? Can Hornsby himself undergo the rigors of 154 games at second base as he says he means to play this year? Will Riggs Stephenson and Charley Grimm stand up under another campaign? And how about the well-known hot corner? Will Lester Bells arm come back? These are a few of the questions Hornsby will face when ne takes his boys west for the new season. But if Marse Joe and the Rajah that the breaks are all going against them, let them have a look at the position of John (Shano) Collins. Shono is taking tail-end team with whom the habit of losing has been fairly well formed. He has few good pitchers, but the defenses are spotty and the run-making depart ment hasn't bene functioning since Harry FraZee peddled the big shots around like a clerk during a Janu- ary clearance sale of odds and ends
 If Collins can discover some hap py method of winning ball games While making fewer runs than the other fellow. Bob Quinn ought to give him a contract.

|SCHAAF 8-5 SHOT
 l T0BEAT BRADD0CK IN GARDEN TONIGHT

New York, January 23 - (UP)- Ernie Schaaf, Boston heavyweight, is an 8 to 5 favorite to defeat James J. Braddock of Jersey City. in the ten-round feature bout in Madison Square Garden tonight.
 Schaaf showed in his recent bout here with Max Baer that he is a bet ter than ordinary boxer, fair puncher, and possessed of plenty of staying powers. He will also have a considerable pull in the weights.
 Getting Heavy
 Tonight's fight will mark Brad docks debut as q heavyweight. The Jersey scrapDer, once a contender for the ht-heavyweight title, is now a legitimate heavyweight and is expected to weight about 184 pounds for Schaaf. Braddock, poor boxer and poorer thinker, will rely on his powerful right hand punch to whip the Boston boy.
 Madison Dix of California. and Sam Bruce of New York. will meet in the ten-round semi-final. This bout was substituted for the Larry Johnson-Paul Cavalier bout when Cavalier contracted flu.
 Vittorio Livan vs Nick Testo, and Tony Galento vs Frankie Wine are other bouts on the card.

BLUE RIBBONS ROLL WAKEFIELD TEAM
 AT CEMOT ALLEYS
Special Match Game Gets Under Way Sunday Aft- ernOOn - Return Match in Bay State Later

The Connecticut Blue Ribbons are staging their second big match of the season on Sunday afternoon at Gen lots their opponents this time being the Wakefield Pilgrims. champions of the Bay State and third place team in last years national tournament.
 The visitors boast a fine array of talent including Red Millar of Bos- ton present All Events champion. Archie Walsh, also of the Hub city and three year leader in all events pin fall and Paul Peehler.
 Among The Visitors.
 The latter is known wherever bowling Is in vogue regardless of the style for the Boston pinster can shoot any form of game so long as 1t is with ball and pins. He is considered the most graceful bowler fr the game to day and for 25 years past has been ranked as the leading bowler of New England.
 Another outstanding member of the team is Joe OLindy of Quincy third ranking bowler in the honor ary division and classed as the best money bowler in the east. His rec ord supports that for in 30 Sweep stakes that he has competed in he has never finished worse than third place which in itself is remark able record. George McConvill of Wakefield. pinoneer in the bow ling game Is another none too youth full member but can still topple the pins and was good though to captain the team that finished so well in the national championships, the sixth member of the squad is Johnnie Farrell of Revere who visited here less than two weeks ago and engag- ed himself in competition with some of the local bOwlers with pronounce cd success, so much so that he will be the recipient of no end of challenges before he returns.
 Nutmcgs Ready. The Bay state team on the whole is formidable one and the BlIe Ribbons will need to be in top form and receivers of better breaks than fell their way in the Washington series, if they expect to win. One thing in :heir favor they have had no end of good practice. Jack White has had series with Barney Spinal- Ia of Brooklyn and Bill Tato has had two matches with Cahill of Norwalli and the rest of the team have been trying to determine the winner of the Connecticut Duckpin league.
  recent cold and should be in good form. The visitors have not dis closed who they will match against Jack White in the singles, but in all | probability Red Millar will take up the burden and he and Joe OLindy will no doubt be the choice against Bill Tato and Carl Frisk All the events will consist of five games with total pin fall in each class to count | and the remaining five games to he rolled in Wakefield. The line up: Blue Ribbons. Nick Tronoski, New Britain. ] Carl Frisk, Hartford.
 Joe Gacek, New Britain.
 Mike Eigino. Hartford. | Bill Tato, Waterbury. | Jack White, New Haven. | Wakefield. | Red Millar, Lynn.

to taxation, and out of this fund the
state should apportion to each dis
trict an equal amount of money for
every child attending that school. True
this would still leave some inequali-
ties. For instance, schools which have
only half dozen pupils would suffer
by such an arrangement, but on the
other hand it can be argued that
schools which have such small at
tendance, are too expensive to keep
up and must be abandoned and the
pupils transported to nearby school.
So long as we allow the state to
dictate to us in our school matters,
let the state see that means are pro-
vided to carry out it's dictates. If not
this, then let each district have home
rule. Let them decide all their own
educational problems as they deem
best, and let the state pay each dis
trict an equal sum of money out OF
the state school fund, based on the
number of pupils in the district, and
no other considerations. Beyond that,
let each district decide how much
more they are willing and able to
spend on its school.

A RECESS APPOINTMENT

Whether the appointment of Gunnar
H. Nordbye, youngest member of the
Hennepin county district court bench,
to the position of Minnesota's fourth
federal judge Monday by President
Hoover is legal, will have to be de-
cided when congress again convenes
next December. NOrdbye was the OBJ
ject of much fire since he was Sc
lected from a list of possible candi-
dates for the position by the president
after Michel, nominee of Senator
Schall's had been turned down. Schall
upon being notified of the appointment
said the fight against his appointment
being confirmed by the senate had
just started. Much argument pro and
con on the question has been offered
and much time was spent in the SEN
ate arguing about who was to be the
next federal Judge of Minnesota.
At any rate whether the appoint
ment is legal or not the congestion in
the federal court calendar will pos
sibly be relieved with the assistance
of another judge while congress is
spending their time in vacation.

'The way to reduce taxes is to re-
duce." In Lyon county five town.
ships, Eidsvold, Westerheim, Nord-
land, Island Lake, and Grand View in
1880 levied a total of $4,000. This
year they levied $1,000, a reduction OF
$4,000. They did their own reducing.
1t is reported that the average rate
of taxation in Lyon county is 4S mills
or approximately $48 thousand Of
assessed value. OF this amount about
81 goes to the state, and the SAL to
local taxing units.
l have been wondering how much
reducing was done in Pine county at
the March meetings held recently.
Shall we close some of the schools?
is the heading of an article by A. M.
Dunton of Clearwater county, Mimi,

A DEPLORABLE SITUATION

The present business depression and
period of unemployment brings this
fast moving country to its senses with
jerk and causes us to look around
to see if things are worse here than
they are anywhere else or if we are
possessed with illusionment.
There is much suffering in our
country due to the lack of employ
ment but in general the people have
their health and no great epidemic OF
deadly diseases has recently been re-
ported. In looking around for some
place that is worse off than we are
here, one might pick out the situation
in Porto Rico where there are 44O
people living on the average square
mile and where even intensive agri-
culture will not support this popula-
ton. 1t is reported that more than
81, 900 people are suffering from tuber-
culosis, 100000 from malaria and $780,
600 have hookworm.
A place being ravished by disease
is surely in sad strait which can
not be compared with that of loss OF
business, so long of course those los
ing it, can still retain their health
and strength such as a greater por-
ton of our people have thus far.

FUNERAL DIRECTORS
WOULD ABOLISH THE
WORD "UNDERTAKER'

A nationwide effort, supported in
many states by legislation, is being
made by the National Association of
Funeral Directors to eliminate the
term undertaken" according to w. F..
Bowers of the firm of Finlayson Nor
tuary of this city, who returned today
from attendance at the 41st annual
meeting of the Minnesota Funeral Di-
rectors' association, which was held,
during the past week, at the Mime
apolis auditorium, with the largest at
tendance in years.
1.-The national association is work
ing for new Technology for our pro-
fession and they have made consider
able progress in getting rid of the
unpleasant word undertaken, Mr..
Bowers said: 1T is the general opin-
ion that the use of the title, funeral
director is in keeping with the strides
that have been made in recent years
to raise the standards of the profess
sion. Our Minnesota association has
won national recognition for its work
in improving standards, in keeping up
with scientific developments and in
co-ordinating these discoveries into
service to the bereaved."
Mr.. Bowers attended the fifth annual
Institute for Funeral Directors con-
Quoted by the General Extension Di-
vision of the University of Minnesota.
The program of the Institute was most
instructive and interesting he said.
