The Ranger basketball team was
eliminated by Bull at the Range
Amateur tournament in Keewatin by a
score of 38 to 80. Although displaying
a fine passing and floor game the locals
could not consistently connect with the
hoop while the Bull cagers showed an
uncanny ability to cage shots at long
range. Ely took at least four shots
at the basket to every one for Buhl but
failed to connect.

Two last-minute changes were made
in the bill Just before 1t was introduced.
One would exempt Takoma Park and
Kensington from the referendum pro-
vision and keep them bone dry unless
future Legislature authorized o spe-

Baltimore, the city delegation presented
a resolution empowering the speaker to

The matter was referred to the Rules

tai area, and first to seek re-enactment
of its local option law since repeal
these two seemingly conflicting distinc-
tions were claimed by Montgomery
County yesterday.
Two other important "firsts" featured
yesterdays session of the State Legis-
lature, the first effort to revise the
newly enacted State liquor control law
and the first attempt to probe liquor
prices.
After introducing referendum meas
ure to provide that the wet suburban
area Of Montgomery County might have
a special election in 1885 on the ques-
ton Of becoming dry, and that the dry
rural districts might have similar priv
ileges with regard to becoming wet,
members of the county delegation
pointed out last night that the bill re-
enacts the county's 50-year-old local
option law.

year agreement.
Ambassador Arlota, Italian envoy to
Argentina, arrived yesterday from
Buenos Aires with the announcement
that Italy has agreed to sign the Ar

Scribed to by Mexico, Chile, Uruguay

He conferred with Argentine Foreign

him cablegram from Premier Musso-

whiskies and gins, but no wines.
The Rockville branch of the dispen-
sary system was opened this morning
after a two-day delay due to lack Of

original plans, however, by transferring
the scene of Rockville operations from
Building directly across from the county
court house.
Rockville's Eotary Club registered a
vigorous protest against locating the dis
pensary in the garage because of its
close proximity to the Rockville High
School and the site for the new elemen-
tary school to be constructed soon.

ST. ALBANS, VT, December 8.-With
Vermont still in the dry column under
State law despite repeal of Federal pro-
hibition, local officials found themselves
in something of a quandary today as a
result of authority given customs Off
cials to permit American citizens to
bring in liquor from Canada.
A telegram received at customs head
quarters from the Treasury Department
in Washington authorized the Federal
officers to permit incoming visitors to
bring a quart or less of liquor free of
duty. 1t also permits citizens of this
country to include liquor as part of the
$100 worth of goods purchased abroad
which they may bring in free of duty.

wooden hoops. They were hoops
that Sammie had taken off an old

Jingle and Jangle, two of Uncle
Wiggily's rabbit girl twins, had
hoops made from long, slender
branches of the willow tree. When
the two ends were tied together
there was as fine hoop as any
rabbit child could want.
Buster. a boy rabbit, had taken
steel rib from an old umprella
and by tieing the ends together he
had made a slender hoop that tink-
led when it bounded over stone.
Many of the boy rabbits made
hoops like Busters and they were
having fun.
