CHAMPIONSHIP
 HOOP SERIES
 OPENS TONIGHT
K Ketchik an and Juneau High School Quintets
 Ready for Battle


 pionship of Southeast Alaska at stake, the basketball teams repre- senting Ketchikan and Juneau High Schools face each other here to- night in the first game of a series that is likely to extend to three games before the issue will be de- cided.
 Led by Coach Willis Hathaway, the squad of eight husky Kayhi players arrived last night on the Northwestern from Wrangell, where they won two out of three hard. fought games to capture Southern division honors. Every man was reported in good condition for the fray. The visitors had a workout in the high school gymnasium this afternoon.
 Ray Hall, Kayhi student, is ac- companying the team as manager,
 The series promises to be close and exciting. Reports that have been Altering through from the South give Ketchikan credit for having a fast, aggressive team that spells plenty of danger to the championship aspirations Of the Crimson Bears. Because of the fact that neither quintet has play ed against team that the other has met this season, it is hard to get line on the respective strengths on the basis of compara- tives scores. Kayhi has seen plenty of action, having played 16 games against high school and town teams. Only six games were lost to Prince Rupert, Petersburg town team, Ketchikan Y. P. A. C., Met lakatla High, Petersburg High and Wrangell High.
 Kayhi Strong
 Coach Hathaway admitted today that his squad is possibly a bit stronger than the five that lost it's championship title to Douglas in two straight games last year. Tn dividually the 1892 team might have been superior" he said, 'but the boys are playing together bet ter this year and exhibiting a higher degree of team work" Coach Elmer Wentland of Ju- neau has likewise developed an outfit this year that is noted for it's team play rather than for indi- vidual effort. The contests should bring out the best brand of bas- ketball that has been seen in high school play this season. Record breaking crowds are expected to attend.
 The Line-ups Coach Hathaway announced that his starting lineup would be Carl Homan and Ted Blandov at for ward, Gilmore Rolie at center, and Jim Sande and Arthur Nelson at guard. Clinton Johnson, guard; Leslie Hunsperger, center, and Charles Tatsuda, forward, make up his reserves.
 The Crimson Bears will probably line up as follows: Haglund and Behrends, forwards; Henning, cen ter; Karabelnikoff and Marshall guards.
 Elton Engstrom and John Os- borne will act as referee and um- pire, respectively.
 DeMolays vs. Y. P. A. c.
 In the preliminary game, starting at 7:30 o'clock, the DeMolay and the Y. P. A. c. quintets face each other for the third time this sea- son. The DeMolays have won ur to date but the Indian lads have been improving steadily and have a good chance to cop. | The High School Band will play before the game and during inter- missions.

RICHMOND. Va, Dec. Is.
Virginia's liquor control commits
sion. which has been considering
liquor legislation for the past sew
eral days, is expected to approve
shortly a general draft of a bill
to be recommended to the general
assembly next month, and will
leave the final drafting Of the
measure to a subcommittee which
will make public its bill within
a week, it has been learned.
AS has been forecast, the bill
will operate on the following gen.
eral principle: Beer will be made
easily available, wine almost as
easily available and the sale Of
hard liquor will be restricted to
State-owned and operated liquor
stores which will dispense I'M
limited amounts without permit
cards to all citizens, but all liquor
is to be sold in sealed packages
for off-premises consumption.
The sale of hard liquor in
counties is left to local option.

ton of the law would be left to a

To FACE OLD
PENALTIES
Revenue Act Sentences To Be
No More Severe Than
Under Prohibition

Punishment under the revenU
act for violators Of the nquoS
laws will be no more severe thar
under the prohibition act, in the
opinion Of U. S. Commissioner I
Frank Parran, of Upper Marlboro
in charge of the Southern Mary
land district.
Bootleggers will find themselves
facing new charges, as the on6
difference. Under the statute, .
man in possession Of an unoper
ated still is charged with settins
up a still without registering II
with the collector Of internal
revenue. Punishment is a $500
penalty, a fine Of from 500 to
$500 and imprisonment for ons
month to two years.
If a man is caught at StiN
with whisky, he is chargeable with
defrauding the Government Of its
tax, ana races a line OF $0UU 20
$4,000. Imprisonment is from si1
months to three years.
AS before, Mr.. Parran will bind
cases over to the Baltimore Fed
eral Court for action after he has
held hearing.
Other violations concern trans
portation and the use Of fictitious
revenue stamps.
William Lee Walker, Of DrurY.
Md, has the doubtful honor Of be-
ing the first man bound over to

registering a still and was given
a hearing yesterday by the COM

NEW TRIAL HOPE
BRINGS CALM
To WAMPLER
Convicted Lawyer Soothed by
Words of Counsel After
Suicide Threats

T. Morris Wampler, Washing
ton attorney, was free on SIS, 900
bond today following his convic-
ton on a charge of violating the
income tax laws in Federal Court
in Baltimore last night.
Stunned by the verdict Of the
jury, which had deliberated four
hours, Wampler burst into tears
and said:
"I'll never 60 to the peniten-
tiary. I'll kill myself"
Members of Wampler's legal
staff finally managed to compose
him, and he left the courtroom
after the bond had been posted.
He now has two days in which
to file a plea for a new trial.
Retrial Plea Due
Only a few persons were in
court when the verdict was re-
turned. Mrs. Catherine P. Offutt,
Wampler's private secretary, wept
when the foreman announced the
finding of guilty on each count in
the indictment.
Isaac Loeb Strauss, former at
torney general of Maryland and a
member of the defense counsel,
said he will file a motion for a
new trial.
Strauss made an eloquent plea
in an effort to save his client,
scores of attorneys packing the
courtroom to hear his closing adj
dress to the jury.
BIackmaiI Charged
United States Attorney Simon
E. Sobeloff, in closing the case
for the Government, charged that
Wampler had blackmailed Ed.
ward B. Dean, wealthy Washing
ton real estate operator, sending
women to Deans apartment.
These women later claimed to
have been assaulted by Dean, and
Wampler, acting for Dean, settled
the cases. The Government
charged that Dean paid Wampler
$4,000 to settle these cases and
that the attorney pocketed $50,

Controversy over sale Of liquor
In the four Prince Georges
county towns which have de-
.manded they be kept dry took
q new turn today as wet leaders
declared that the question was
not one of wet and dry senti-
ment, but instead involved three
major issues-booSting of bust
ness, increase in employment,
and increase in county revenue.
This stand was taken at a
hearing in the courthouse at
Upper Marlboro before the Prince
Georges County Board of License
Commissioners, which heard vets
and drys on the controversy over
sale in Mount Rainier, HyattS-
vile, Laurel and Riverdale.
To Decide Today
The board was expected to an,
nounce it's decision late this after
noon.
Although earlier in the week
the board decided to issue no Il,
censes in these towns, the protest
was so vigorous that the commits
sioners decided to go into the
matter again.
Charles H. Piggott, retired mer'
chant, who has lived in MI
Rainier for 80 years, and who
owned the first store there, de
clared on behalf of the vets that
sale of liquor in neighborlng
towns will draw considerable buSl'
ness away from Mt. Rainier.
It was pointed out by the vets
that IL of the Is home owners
in the same block in which the
Mount Rainier Mayor lives signed
the wet petition. The Mayor Is
opposed to sale. It was also re
vealed that 80 per cent OF tne
residents in the Mayors district
have petitioned for issuance Of
licenses.
Bird H. Dolby, legal counsel fol
the Mount Rainier Mayor ano
Town Council, introduced dry
petition, containing the names Of
1923 persons. The drys forgot
to enter this peClClon al Iue AAAS'
hearing, it was said.
"Rum Row" Barred
Answering charges of the drys
that granting licenses would start
a rum row which would attract
the scum of Washington" it was
pointed out that number OF ap-
plications have been withdrawn
and only four dealers are now
seeking licenses, removing any
danger of rum row"

chase was not in keeping with
