CHAMPAIGN, Ill., Jan II. = Coach Craig Ruby has 90 much height on his 1882 University of Illinois basketball team that he has changed his system of offensive play.
 The douahtv little coach, a pupil of the Walter E. Meanwell school and exponent of the short pass style, has found five lads who will measure well over six feet to be his best bets. with six-foot soph- omore as the apex of his giant crew
 Hudson Hellmich of St. Louis is the newcomer, and in the new scheme of things he and Caslon Bennett, himself six feet two and last years center, are scheduled to do much lettering in the neigh borhood of the basket while team- mates do more long-range shoot ing than has been the Illfni habit in the past.
 Capt. Babe Ramp, a forward; his cousin, Bob Ramp, guard, and Boyd Owen, also guard, probably will round out the first five, and each tops the two-yard mark in height.
 Promising reserves also bring a wealth of altitude to the Orange and Blue squad. The Kamm twins from Atwood are three and one one inches, respectively, over six feet. and seven other leading can didates all hit the six foot mark. Illinois came with a rush at the close of last season, winning it's last seven games after dropping the first five, and climaxed the drive by winning the only game lost by

HOOVER. LAUDED
IN BROCHURE
Of c. D. P.
Handbook of 288 Pages Is
sued for First Time for Sale;
Savings Stressed

A new Republican handbook
made it's appearance today, al
most literally in the book stalls.
For the first time in the party's
history, this quadrennial bro
chure which extolls Republican
virtues and condemns Demo-
cratic shortcomings was on sale,
price 25 cents, or just, enough
to pay printing, binding and
mailing costs.
The 1882 campaign text book
for the G. o. P. runs 288 pages,
and in 10 chapters affords party
orators and workers wealth of
ammunition for the final seven
weeks drive to re-elect President
Hoover and install Republican
Congress.
Savings Are Lauded
An opening biographical sketch
of President Hoover details in
concise LANGUAGE the many emer-
gency steps he initiated in under
taking to bring the nation and
the world out of the depression.
1t concludes, in part:
GAIL told the relief measures
which the President proposed
and which Congress passed
have furnished assistance thus
far to approximately 10000
900 people.
'"The savings which he ef-
fectuated by courageous reSiS-
tance to iIl-cOnsidered panaceas
aggregated upwards of $4,000
900, 200.
Thus he protected the Amer
ican taxpayer from a staggering
burden of unnecessary and un-
just taxes.
"The history of Mr.. HOOver'S
administration is in part that
of an economic ArmageddOn,
an economic equivalent of the
great war, with the responsible
ity of leadership resting on Mr..
HOOver'S shoulders.
MADE FOR ROLE
"He was heaven-Sent for the
role. His experience in organ
lied relief of distress as the
greatest practical humanitarian
in all the ages excelling liter
ally that of any other individ-
ual in the world, equipped him
Superbly for ring for those
wounded in the economic battle.
His underst ndin~ of world
com err and finance acquired
as Secretary of Commerce and
in his personal business expo
rienCe, made him deal for the
leadership he ~aS called upOn
to take against the blows that
rained from abroad upon the
structure of American business
and credit"

GROUP
FACES TASK

Washington, less perhaps than
any large city in the country, in
dulgeS in municipal extravaganza,
according to District officials.
Consequently, though the Dis
trict economy committee is max
ing every effort to reduce govern
mental costs here, its task is diff
ficult, by comparison with similar
undertakings elsewhere, for tb,1
reason that there are no swollen
salaries to be cut down or elimi-
mated and no lavish expenditures
for political purposes.
The District of Columbia fairly
may be compared with a business
enterprise doing a business of
$40, ,OOO, 900 to $5O,00O,O00 a year,
for those amounts represent the
recent range of District revenues
and expenses. In a private enter
prise, the head of the concern
would undoubtedly receive a salary
of $4,000 or 100000 a year
If not more, and there would be
executives who would draw from
$4,000 up.
In the District government,
however, the highest salaries
paid, even before the recent 8 1-3
per cent cut dictated by the
economy bill. were $4,000 a year
This amount was paid the two
appointive District Commissioners
and a few other officials.
Now, of course, all salaries
above the minimum have been
reduced one-twelfth, making the
maximum $3.50.

ShadraCk Thompson'S Body
Taken From Tree on Rattle

WARRENTON, Va, Sept. 16.
Found hanging from an apple
tree in an orchard on Rattle
snake Mountain, Fauquier
county, the body of Shadrack
Thompson, colored, was cut
down and burned by a mob
which gathered in a few
minutes last night.
Thompson had been relentleSsly
hunted by officials and posses of
the county since July 18 for his
early morning attacks on Henry
and Mamie Baxley in their home
between Markham and Hume.
Baxley had been knocked uncon-
scious by Thompson, a former
employe, who then beat and as
Saulted Mrs. Baxley. The assail-
ant then carried Mrs. BaXley into
the woods about two miles from
the farm home, where she was
later found. Both victims have
recovered.
Sheriff William S. Woolf said
that the colored fugitive had
committed suicide.
The mob, which gathered at the
scene as the, news spread, acted so
quickly in cutting the body down
and setting fire to it that an
examination could not be made.
From the position of the body
before it was cut down, some resi-
dents doubted the man had taken
his own life,

Liberals Not Counted On

President Hoover today broke
into the progressive blcc" in
the Senate when Senator r. p.
Howell of Nebraska announced
that he will take the stump for
the Republicans in Nebraska in
October.
The announcement of Howell,
who staged a one-man filibuster
in the Senate in behalf of farm
relief this summer. followed the
Topeka speech in which Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt. Demo-
cratic candidate for President,
made public his farm policy.
While refusing to discuss the
Roosevelt farm program, Howell
said:
81 am a Republican. 1 ex-
pc to make some speeches in
Nebraska in October"
Opposes Norris
He thus split with the veteran
Nebraska Republican insurgent,
Senator George w. Norris, who
is supporting the Democratic
candidate.
Returning to Washington to
take up his work as chairman
of the Senate Campaign Funds
committee, Howell said that "the
election is in the lap of the
gods," adding:
"There might be a change
either way in the West in the
next 60 days in view of the
economic situation"
BOrah In Doubt
The declaration of Howell re-
newed interest here in the attl-
tude of Senator Borah (RD Of
Idaho and other members of the
Senate progressive group. The
Idaho member has expressed the
belief that both Republican and

DR.. Debayle, speaking over sta

recalled the Nicaraguan earth
quake of last year which de-
stroyed the capital city of Mana
