or Program viii Collapse,
Is Warning.

Renewed appeal to Marion county
residents to relieve the urgent finan-
cial situation of the Marion County
tuberculosis Association by send
ing in payments for Christmas seals
has been made by the executive
committe.
Almost complete abandonment
of the 1888 anti-tuberculosis pro-
gram will be necessary unless re-
spouse to the appeal is general, Miss
Mary A. Meyers, executive secretary,
warned.
Due to conditions arising from
the depression, large American cities
already have reported increased
death rates from tuberculosis. We do
not want this to happen here. Only
a second response by citizens can
adequately finance the asSociation's
work now," Miss Meyers said.

the following standing committees

Ma jority Leader Henry T. Rainey
of Illinois, Joseph w. Byrns Of
Tennessee, John Rankin Of Missis-
sippi, John w. McDuffie of Ala
bama, and John J. OConnor Of New
York. Naturally enough, there is
no chairman or secretary.
Even before the new members ar
rive, they will have heard from
these gentlemen. 1t is known that
several candidates have written
long letters to future members, pre-
suinably setting forth their quanf-
cations for the speakership.
The hospitality being heaped
upon arriving freshmen is unaccus-
toned and unusual, for each pros
pectus contains offers to be of serv-
ice in all respects-from helping the
youngsters to get a good committee
place to telling a good place to eat
lunch when, as they will, they tire

taurant.
In short, the new members are
being rushed" just as freshmen
entering small colleges are bounced
upon by representatives of various
fraternities even before they get
off the train at the railroad station.
So far as is known, 1t is some
thing new in candidating. The boys
are getting clever.
1t seems strange, though, that
men Of experience should resort to
such tactics. Such veterans as the
five contestants must know that the
average individual member will

have little say as to whom he will
support. Tammany Chieftain John
F. Curry, for instance, will tell his
score Of members whom he wants
in the speakers chair. So far, Curry
has made no sign, apparently wait
ing to see whittier the gayel will
jump.
Ed Crump, boss Of Memphis and
afectionately known as the red
snapper" because Of his ford COM
plexion and once-red hair, will have
a lot to say TO his delegation and
maybe to several others.
The "Kingfish," sometimes known
as Senator Huey P. Long. will die
tate the vote of Louisiana's delega-
ton.
So a good deal Of the rushing"
NAV be in vain But it's funny the
FIVE don't seem to know it.

Harlem Globe TrOtters
ShOID Wares Next Week.
By "Shammyn Somrock.

The Harlem Globe Trotters with their
Glowing tactics, trick shots, expert ball
handling and all around excellent play
bring their bag of talented basket ball
wizardry to the Memorial gymnasium
next Friday evening when they clash
with the local Ranger A. c. quint in
the feature court attraction of the
current season.
Fresh from string of victories over
several of the outstanding teams in the
Northwest and with the reputation OF
giving spectators a full game of basket
ball thrills, the colored team will at
tempt to add the Rangers to their long
list of victims, trick which they
will undoubtedly be able to turn as
they are a greater team this season
than they were in their other ap-
pearances here the past two seasons
Skilled in every phase of the court
game, the boys from Harlem have the
art of ball handling, shooting and pass
| ing, down to real science. The
visitors are treat to watch as they
reel of the most complete repertoire OF
of basket ball exhibitions n the country
! with their smooth working and flaw
less style.
In Albert "Runt" Pullins, an ALI
American performer from Brown Uni
versity, the Trotters have one of the
finest players in the game today. His
shots at the basket are consistently ac-
curate while bullet-like passes from
exteremly difficult positions seldom miss
their mark When the "Runt" puts on
his trick shots and comic acts he
throws the crowd into gales of laughter
and rounds of applause. The pivot man
Of the dusky cagerS is Inman Big
Jackson, who has completely mastered
the art of ball handling, while his
shots at the basket with his back
turned can be classed as almost I'M
canny. George Easy" Easter, floor
captain and guard of the visitors, is the
SteadieSt man on the team, directing
play, feeding the ball to his mates for
shots, an expert ball handler and al
ways dangerous shot from any spot
on the floor. George seldom smiles,
DC1llS UdShcI COllSClOuS dllQ ScIlOuS, III
spite of the many laugh provoking
antics of himself and his mates. The
rest of the team is composed of several
sensational performers who are playing
their first season with the colored
team. They are, Guy Hancock, Mem
phis, Tenn, school boy star and alfred
''Lanky" Burnley, a player who has
been a sensation on the Pacific coast
for several seasons. Manager Saper-
stein of the visitors is dickering with
an outstanding eastern player to COM
plete his personnel, this player to join
the team this week According to Mr..
Saperstein, the new addition to his
team is one of the finest players in the
country.
The Globe TrotterS whole team is a
real group of entertainers in the man
ner of exhibiting their talent. The
HarlemiteS can do more tricks with q
basket ball than a monkey can per-
form with a cocoanut.

ELY LOSES TO
HIBBING ]. c.
Invaders Triumph Over Local
Jaysees Here Monday by
81 to 20 Score.
By "Shammy" Somrock.

With fast moving offenSe, function
ing smoothly after belated start. the
Hibbing Junior college basket ball team
defeated the Ely Jaysee five, here Mon
day evening, with count of 81 to 20.
The locals played the visitors on even
terms throughout the first period with
Hibbing leading at the close Of the
quarter 8 to 7. Mixing up a clever
ball handling and passing game with
some accurate shooting, the Hibbing
five stepped out on the second period
to take long lead as the Ely defense
faltered. Hibbing was in front 20 to 9
at halftime. The third period ended
80 to IL for Hibbing. Ely drew up a
little in the final frame but could not
cut much into the visitors lead.
The Hibbing cagers displayed fast
breaking game, which coupled with un-
usually expert ball handling and pass
ing, continually drove in for close shots
at the basket. Taddie, at center and
Oscar Aubin, forward, led the Hibbing
attack, scoring II to 10 points respec-
lively, while Golobich and Harri with
8 and counters showed for Ely.

FIGHT SHOW
ON TOMORROW
Amateurs to Toss Gloves With
Thiesen-Hannon In Main
Event of Legion Card.
By "shammy" somrock.)

Seven amateur bouts will furnish the
action in the local American Legion's
second boxing show to be staged to-
morrow evening at the Washington
Auditorium, starting at P. M. Sew
eral of the boys who pleased the GUS
toners at the first show, in October,
will again be featured on the card
while number of newcomers will make
their initial bow to local fight fans
The feature bout of the show will
be the return mix between Hal ThieSen
and Jimmy Harmon whose bout stole
the first show, with their free swinging
and willing style of milling. Thiesen
won the first fight by a slight edge
but the majority of the fans figured it
a draw. This bout will headline the
show with strong supporting cast OF
capable glove singers. Barney Gan
ley, who won his fight in the previous
show by a technical kayo, is slated to
meet Newell Graham, who also won his
first fight last fall. The Ganley
Graham battle will be in the semi
windup spot. Roger Hall and Barney
Fitzpatrick, who fought each other to
a standstin in the first show are re-
matched and will meet again on the
card tomorrow. Two speed demon 118
Founders are expected to furnish plenty
of action when Bob Storror and Jimmy
Pettis match blows.
Douglas NankerviS will act as referee
and will call the shots in the ring while
two judges at ringside will assist in
rendering the decisions. AS all amateur
bouts must end in decision the public
can rest assured that every fighter will
be in there doing his best to get the
verdict. Each fight will consist of three
two-minute rounds, making up a total
of 81 rounds for the show.
Following is the complete lineup of
fights and fighters as they have been
matched. Some of these will probably
be changed if the fighters do not make
their required weights at weighing-in

! WHAT OTHERS SAY !

Congressman Shoemaker did not voice
the sentiment of this region when he
belittled the civilian conservation corps
in that Wtriolic radio speech he made a
short while back.
The people of the Arrowhead believe
IN that project. AS matter of fact,
they have been urging just such action
for several years although they had no
hopes 1t would crystalline as rapidly
as 1t actually did.
OF course, We have the depression to
thank for it, and if the federal refores-
tation and erosion control program is
carried out the way it has been
launched, the ultimate result is more
than likely to be worth all that the de-
preston is costing us this time.
ReforeStation and flood control go
hand in hand. Here is hoping that the
program now started will not be halted
until it has been completed. 1t is going
to take several years to do it, but once
accomplished, it is going to prove one
OF the greatest stabilizers of agricul-
ture and the rest of the nations in
dustries and businesses ever attempted.
A land denuded of it's forests is
headed for utter desolation. With our
forests restored and our water courses
under control, the states greatest
resources-its soil and its treeS-will
have been conserved and protected.
Reforestation will restore valuable
industry now almost extinct. Flood
control will prevent the hundreds of
millions of dollars annual destruction
and waste the country is now sub
jected to.
There may be a number of mistakes
in connection with the national re-
covery program, but the G. c. c. is not

next step in the Blue Eagles program
once business and consumer are or

to the Blue Eagles success. Those mer

are fulfilled must be selected because
their honesty with the public welfare

Death again invaded the
ranks of men prominent in the
mining industry and removed
Francis j. Webb, one of its
most outstanding and lovable
characters. Frank Webb, as
he was known by legion of
friends, was a man whom it
was a pleasure to know and be
known by him as a friend. His
career ranged from teaching
school, several years on the
stage and meteoric rise in the
mining field. All through these
various stages he made friends
with all with whom he came
in contact. In the death of
Frank Webb the world loses

The Blue Eagle of the National Re-

great majority of Minnesota's business
and professional establishments. 1t ap-
parently has captured almost the en-
tire nation in its prosperity flight.
The many demands, restrictions and
regulations which accompany its ar
rival, however, are wholly dependent
on the pledge with which its individual
exhibitors have won participating in
the nationwide movement. In such
a vast number of promises, there un-
fortunately will be many which are not
carried through to achievement. Each
pledge that fails of accomplishment not
only will be lessening the chance of the
Blue Eagles ultimate success, but will
be placing an extra and unfair burden
on those individuals who are so Loyalty

We hear it in Washington that as

properly, and that will be soon, the
revenue Uncle Sam will pull in every
year will amount to one billion dollars.
One billion for the government; well,

have to spend for liquor, hard and soft,
$45 dollars, annually. The people may
do that, and, perhaps they won't. But

THREE BILLS PRESENTED
 REALIZATION OF BEER

WASHINGTON, D. C., March 10, Three bills looking to the legal ization of beer were introduced in the House by Rep. O'Connor, Dem ocrat of New York, author of Sev- eral similar measures.
 MT. O'Connor explained that be- cause of the failure of the Senate to pass the Collier 3.2 per cent beer bill last session the procedure in the House would have to be gone through again.
