man-to-man defense.
The play is worked as follows:
Guard "a has the ball. Imme-

nent. No. receives the pass from
and as throws it he breaks
around his opponent and cuts for
the basket, passing to the rear of 5.
No. 5, being left-handed, pivots
and hands 4 the ball as goes close
by him for the basket, a maneuver
that frees 4 of his opponent. No. 4
then dribbles and shoots. OF course,
the Idaho forwards e and 81 ma

HOOVER FAILS STOP
 ACTION RELIEF BILL
 BY HIS VETO THREATS

WASHINGTON, July 8. Speak CT John N. Garner won a decided victory over P re d e nt Hoove r when the House adopted the Sen- ate House conference port on the Wagner-Garner relief bill. A number of Republicans bolted their party to support the bill
 The House passed the measure despite Hoover's warning that he will veto the measure when it reaches him for his signature.
 The president and Garner roar ed their defiance at each other in bitter clash over the previous ly deadlocked $2,1O0, 100000 relief bill sponsored by the Democrats. A few hours after Garner had warned sharply tn at democratic congressional leaders were prepar- ed to force the isue through to a finish, Hoover issued a 1900 word statement declaring he could not accept the measure.
 The chief point at issue was the provision increasing the borrowing power of the Reconstruction Fin ance Corporation to $1,500,O00, ,O0C to enable loans to individuals, pri- vate corporations n d municipali- ties.
 Although Garner made sacrafices in other controversial provisions ot the bill he refused to alter this one. Of this provision President Hoover said, Such an undertaking by the United States Government makes the Reconstruction Finance Corporation the most giga mt ie banking and pawnbroking business in all history"
 The House and Senate conferees agreed after the White House con- ference to support Garner and re- fused flatly to accede to the Presi- dents wishes to revise the section The house Thursday morning ad- opted the measure.
