VOU know, trying to pick the
Il outcome of this fracas in the
east side gym Saturday night is
like deciding whether you'll take
turkey or goose, when you want
both.
But more of that some of these
times. Because it's the day after
Christmas, and because they've been
piling up on us while we've dis
coursed on Tech and Rushville,
Cathedral and Jeffersonville, AMI
Butler and Purdue, we're going to
give the contributors a break.
TechitiS still is in epidemic form.
Listen to this:
Dear Blackboard:
Welcome back! (Backboard's note:
Thanks. lady. We don't hear it often. and
it sounds good) 1 certainly enjoy your
write-ups about my dear old alma mater,
Tech.
There are few things l have to say,
and the first is that 1 agree with you 100
,
note.) That says that Johnny Townsend
is a grand basketball player.
THE second is that 1 disagree with the
person that says we have a one-man
team. because we haven't. There are four
other boys. Fais, HUT Pagach. and
Woerner. to be exact, that are swell
players.
II am willing to bet my Sunday go to-
meetin' bonnet with any ShOrtrdge fan
that Tech will hang up a victory over the
Blue Devils. CWhat do you think?) Well,
"TOOTS FROM TECH"
Il
blackboard will risk punish
Dment for violation of the gam
ing laws to hold stakes on that bet
of stein of beer-but not for
"Sunday-go-to-m eetin'" bonnet.
Nor any bonnet That's strictly
in fun. Now pay attention.

Dear Blackboard:
'Well, old pal (Backboard's note: the
familiar touch, you'd better start saving
your dough to bet dear old Shortridge
on Dec. 30. Tech doesn't know it, but
they're heading for the last roundup.
And you had better reserve place for old

blackboard is sorry to admit
- that he doesn't reserve the
places in the Butler fieldhouse. He'd
like to. But there wouldn't be six
teen teams there-there'd be about
500
Dear Blackboard:
Don't let the green and white paper
fool you. l go to shortridge and not
the eastside school.
Il have been going to shortridge games
for over three years and l think that
this present team is the best Kenny
Peterman had a hard job to build a good
team on little or no material. but 1 think
he more than succeeded. As the sea
son goes on the team is bound to be-
come bigger and better and we are
hoping for big things from it at the city
and seetionals, and also at the nearing
game with our ancient enemy. Tech
Il see that Techs Greek God is willing
to bet a stein of beer on Tech against
the Blue Devils. He is wasting his money
because ShOrtridge is going to win.
Whether Tech has a one-man team or no
one man team, they can not beat US in
that struggle. II is one Of the things
not being done this season.

DENTIST MURDER
 MUCH MIXED-UP MLOVE AFFAIRS
Pasadena Man Was Found Killed in Parking Lot
 Last Tuesday

Pasadena, Cal, Dec 1s-(UP)- A solution to the murder of Dr Leonard Seiver appeared lost today in a myriad of love affairs that preseded his death on a parking lot last Tuesday night.
 Almost hourly some new feminine figure crept into the investigation, adding confusion to the main po- lice theary that pealousy or anger lay behind the mystery of his death.
 Cathryn Noodle. young social figure, introduced "The woman Scorned" in the case by declaring Siever once told her of a jealous woman who resented his attentions to other women. Miss Noodle, who said she had been a friend of the victim because of their mutual in terest in music, said she did not know the woman's name.
 The middle-aged dentist whose feminine admirers were legion was pursued closely by this woman who often met him at his office and watched his numerous incursions into society, Miss Noodle said.
 There were many times when pr Siever would mention her in our conversations" she related. He said he was extremely glad he had never married her because her insane jealousy would have made life unbearable."
 New contributions were reported by police in the array of love let ters found among the victims'ss ef- fects. The letters disclosed addi- tional feminine conquests.

.UKRANIANS HAD PARADE AND WILL
 WITH ATTACKS
Communists of Chicago Hit Them With Bricks
 and Other Missiles

Chicago, Dec 1S-(UP)-Ten men and one woman were held to- day as result of massed attack by Communist sympathizers on a parade of 5000 Ukranians, march, ing as protest against Soviet Rus sian atrocities"
 More than 100 persons were in- jured when bricks, clubs, eggs and other missiles were rained on the marchers from an elevated railway station. Brass knuckles black jacks, fists and rifie-butts were used in the battle which ended with the arrival of half a doden squads of police.
 Nineteen persons were taken to hospitals and later to a police sta- ton. Eight later were released and the others held on charges of rioting. Two were booked on ad- ditional charges of carrying con- cealed weapons. All were to be ar- raigned in boys court to-day.
 ''Atrocity" charges made against Soviet Russia by the relief com mittee for starving Ukraine, which is sponsored by the United Ukrain- ian Organization of Chicago, pre- cipitated the clash. The commit tee charged several million Uk- rainians were allowed to starve to death this year.
 The paraders, led by a company of Ukrainian siege guards in mili- tary uniform and carrying unload ed rifles, were on their way to the Chicago journeymen's plumbers hall to hold protest" meeting when they were attacked. About one-third of the paraders were wo- men and children, who scrambled to get out of range of the uying missiles.
 The men among the marchers formed battle lines and swung their rifles. The attackers ap- peared to be well organized. Soon blackjacks and brass knuckles were being yielded. A riot call brought 75 policemen.
 After order was restorde most of the marchers. dressed in color- full peasant costumes of their homeland, continued to the hall where the meeting was held un- der police guard.
