How 10 Fight for Our Demands
(Sun,marivedh

We call for united struggle OF all
exploited and busted farmers regard
less Of race, creed or political opin-
ions to win their immediate demands.
The members OF the organizations
supporting this conference will be the
most active in rallying the united
forces Of all exploited farmers to
struggle for the farmers demands.
We must call mass meetings and con-
ferences to discuss our demands with
all impoverished farmers, where
united front committees OF action
must be elected by our own ranks,
responsible to us and not to the bank
ers, trusts and rich farmers, as high
salaried leaders are. These united
front committees of action will pro-
vide the leadership Of our united
struggles Of organized and morgan
lied farmers alike. The local com
mittees should Immediately get in
connection with the National Com
mittee for Action.

TEMPLE FIVE FACES
TWO RIVALS IN WEST

Tits This Week.

NEW YORK, January 9.-Temple's
rather ambitious invasion of the West
ern part Of the circuit marks this weeks
campaigning in the newly organized
Eastern intercollegiate basket ball Con-
ference while Pittsburgh's Panthers re-
main at the top of the heap, idle so far
as league competition is concerned.
Temple, which took 1925 trimming
from the Panthers In their first confer
ence game last Saturday, tackles Car
negie Tech Tuesday and West Virginia
Wednesday to complete its Western
round Although the positions Of both
these rivals remain in doubt because of
the lack of early competition, the Tar
tans looked good Saturday when they
opened with 1892 triumph over West
Virginia.
In defeating Temple, Pitt strengthened
its claims to the top ranking, but suf-
fered a costly injury when Claire Cribs
star center, crashed into a wall. He
was believed to have suffered a broken
ankle. The Panthers piled up a 23-9
lead in the first half and never were In
danger.
Carnegie had a somewhat sitter
struggle, winning in the second half on
a spectacular scoring splurge by Smith,
who rang up six field goals.

Y ing contenders in the Interco.-

lead the way into general competition
this week. Every team but Yale will
get a taste of action, with Penn playing
two games.
The Quakers invade Princeton We'd
nesday for their first test and one of
their hardest. Fritz Crisler's Tigers,
with eight straight victories behind
them, have plenty of scoring punch
and are rated as one of the leagues
best teams Penn has won four straight,
showing a lot of power against Penn
State Saturday.
The Quakers' second game Saturday
stacks them up against Dartmouth'S
Indians, a team that was considered to
be dangerous and proved it last Satllr-
day by walloping Cornell, another strong
quintet. As 10 81, in the opening game
of the league campaign. A second
Saturday contest sends Colunbia's
green team against Cornell at Ithaca.
Dartmouth never was in danger against
Cornell, bottling up all the Red for
wards, but Lou Hatkoff, who scored IL

the half, never were less than five
points ahead in the latter part of the
game. Bob Miller. a substitute guard
last year, topped the point getters with
Is points, netting seven field goals. Al
Bonniewell, sophomore, tailed eight
points.
Columbia showed surprising strength

Charles Guest, a hometown

The dark, smiling professional
from Deal, N. j., who grew up to
his game here, held a one-stroke
lead as the So survivors of the
first two rounds of the Los
Angeles $4,000 open turned to the
final SO holes of play.
Two par-shattering rounds put Guest
into the lead with 139. He toured the
tricky Wiltshire Country Club course in

perfect figures and yesterday had So.
With scores Of $50 and better for SO
holes required to remain in the cham
pionShip, and Is within 5 strokes of the
lead, it was Guests tough task Of pound

ded in yesterday with So, the best
round of the tournament to date.
In fifth place was Mark Fry, Oakland,

ing point in the entry Of those who had
bettered par for the SO holes Of play,
although Fay Coleman. a former anna
teur from Culver City, Calf, stood in
sixth place with two par rounds for 142
A trio of more than passing threats
were clustered in seventh, with totals
of 143, strokes behind Guest. The
most insistent of these was Al Espinosa,
the veteran campaigner from Akron,
Ohio. although Paul Runyon, White
Plains, N. Y, and Clarence Hubby,
Waco, Tex, had to be considered.
LIVE we're tied for tenth place with
l. 144s, within striking distance of the
flrst-prize money. They were Fred
