GAME To BE STAGED BY IS

(Contributed)

What happens when two fast
clean playing teams meet on the
basketball court? Well, a good
game results, and that is what the
fans can expect when the DEMO-
lays and Celtics meet tonight. The
DeMolays have dropped most of
their games by only few points
this season, but now it looks as if
! they have hit their stride and will
j be on the top side of the score for
awhile.
The Celtics, having won their
first three league games, can al
ways be depended on to give their
opponents real fight. The Celtics
were badly beaten by the Alumni
in montague game last Friday
night but most of their regulars
were out of the lineup. Both
teams are said to be in good con-
dition and both are out for win.
The DeMolays will try to make
their score from the LopeZ-Kirsch-
enbaum johnson combination.
while the Celtics will be depending
| on Nestor Hernandez and Earl
Yates, very dangerous pair. The
line-ups follow:
DeMolays Pos. Celtics

League well under way let's take
a look at the results from last
weeks games. The DeMolays were
defeated by the Alumni in an over

45-34. The High School was de-

DISTRICT HARD HIT. |
BY TAX ON POWER
Burden on Consumer Here
Held Greater Than in Other
Parts of Country.

The present tax on the sale Of cleo
trio power. now borne by the consumer
instead Of the producer, has placed a
heavier burden proportionately on local
domestic power users, than on the same
class in the country as a whole, &C.
cording to a study made by William A.
Roberts, special assistant District cor
poration counsel. adviser to the Dis
trict Public Utilities Commission.
The study was made at this time
due to consideration of a proposal to
put the tax against producers instead
of consumers.
Mr.. Roberts tabulation showed that
approximately 10 per cent Of the power
produced by the Potomac Electric Pow
er Co. Is sold to domestic and COM
mercial consumers, whereas the aver
age for the country Is about 60 per
cent. Power sold to industrial users,
such as railways, as well as municipal
and Federal governments, he pointed
out, is not subject to the tax.
Since July l, last, when the tax be-
came effective, the study showed the
national tax revenue amounted to about
$40, 269,000. In the Maryland internal
revenue district. which includes Mary
land and the District, the tax amounted
to $386,694. The local power company
reports it has collected about $50, 900
during the nine months up to April l,
which would make the yearly rate
about 100000.
Thus, Roberts explains, a reversal of
the tax would make an immediate saw
ing of about 100000 to local con-
sumers, although. later. part Of this
would be reflected back upon con-
sumers due to operation Of the sliding
scale used in the change Of electric
power rates. subject to the amount Of
excess profits"

concerned. As an example, back in the days
Of the famous Alexandrian Library the nliad
was contained In "A volumes, while IN these
days single printed volume replaces the two
dozen books containing this work in long hand.
The Alexandrian Library, which was founded
by Ptolemy and Ptolemy II. was the largest
library Of its time more than Ton, 900 books, al
in script, being contained in the two buildings
which were used to house them. Books IN

coming so frightful that no soldier
would dare to fight. They do not seem
to realize that they are boasting of hav-
ing invented an instrument of torture
so horrible that no martyr would ever
dare to die for the truth.
But these slavish and cowardly
PHILOSOPHERS are at the very opposite
extreme from the noble art of murder,
or the detection of murder, as prac-
ticed in the true detective story. All the
rest of the occasions on which mOdera-
ton is urged seem to me to be chosen
with discretion and justice. agree that
the detective should be careful about
trap doors, both in theory and practice;
but think trap doors are much more
sporting than hypnotisM-
A trap door, like any other door, has
its limitations; it opens inwards or out
wards; and while it is easy to fall down
through 1t, am told 1t Is more difficult
to fail up. But hypnotism is perfect
instance of that unfair use of the in
finite or unknown of which We have
spoken. For, as nobody knows much
about hypnotism, anybody can be made
to fall upstairs or downstairs, or float
up to the ceiling, or fly through the air;
and the impaling of the Wesleyan min
lister on the spike of his own church
spire becomes the work of moment.

find it dimcult to apply 1t to the un-
chivalrous conception that the knight
always moves crooked. But the point Is
that the game depends on there being
a certain number Of bishops on the
board, and a certain number of moves
for the bishop; and the game would
break down as a game If the bishop
could excommunicate the pawns instead
of taking them.
This logical and limited square, like
a chessboard, which the French call the
cadre, is in some degree necessary to all
art; but is vitally necessary to the art
of the detective story. Anybody can
murder Wesleyan ministers If he is
allowed to call spirits from the vastly
deep to assist him; the problem is how
best to perform the necessary task in a
quiet, practical and economical manner
with the tools provided at particular
place and time.
When this principle is understood, 1t
will be seen at once that it applies
almost as strongly to the first things
against which the neophyte is warned
in the second clause: That is, against
gangs and conspiracies. II there is a
vast secret society whose ramifications
spread from Jamaica to Japan, it is no
matter of wonder that it can manage
to knock OF a Wesleyan minister or two
in Wimbledon or W0thing. Not being
a matter of wonder, 1t ceases to be
matter Of mystery, and we might just
as well try to make detective story
out of the dead body of one peasant
left behind by the all-destroying march
Of Attila and the Huns.
"An-destroying Attila" reminds me Of
the next item Of death rays, on which
I hold very strong views indeed. All
will note the magnificent liberality and
generosity IN the spirit Of the club, in
only asking its members to observe "a
seemly moderation" in the use of these
three things, even of the last. For my
part, should not be sorry to see
death ray finally extinguishing all
