Danbury. The team then has won two, tied two and lost three.
 There is little doubt then that Wilby will rate favorite on Thanksgiving morning. Wilby has won it's last five games. Crosby has not scored in the last four. That seems to be the difference in the clubs. Wilby has been able to score enough points to win. while Crosby has not been able to score at all.
 Wilby rooters are preparing to celebrate their first victory over Crosby since 1928. Seven years without a victory over ones dearest rival is Q long time. Nearly two generations of Wilby students have passed through the Grove street institution without seeing q Wilby triumph over the Blue. They feel that this is their year.

ITO MAKE a crystal-clear, superla-
i lively smooth distilled gin is a
modern science requiring elaborate
equipment and great human skill.
Yet the market is flooded today with
more than 1000 different brands of
gin. Naturally they represent a wide
range of Quality.
How, then, can you Judge which
brand of gin will suit your individual
taste and mix more smoothly in your
cocktails?
To guide you in making your selec-
ton, The Fleischmann Distilling Cor
poration gives you, in QUESTIONABLE
answer form, four basic standards that
canbeused to determine quality a gin.
1. Is the gin made by a distillery?
The Federal Government has provided
way by which you can tell if the gin you
buy is made by distillery.
On every bottle made by distillery,
there is "D' blown into the glass
followed by the license number of the dis
tillery.
The symbol "D-247" blown into the
Fleischmann bottle is your assurance that
this famous American gin is made entirely
by the Fleischmann distillery-from spirits
distilled by Fleischmann.

BOND BAN is URGED
BY CITY CONTROLLER
FavOrS Sinking Fund to Pay
for improvements.

Instead of issuing bonds for pub
lie improvements, Walter c. Boetch-
er, City Controller. suggested today
that the tax levy be increased in
the future and a sinking fund es-
tablished to pay for these projects.
The city could save a great deal
of money paid out every year in in
terest charges and would be kept
practically clear of debt" he said.
If the city wanted to build a coli
scum or a new police station it
could levy 1 cent each year and set
this money aside until sufficient
funds had been raised to meet the
cost of this improvement.
Large corporations operate this
way. and it would pay Indianapolis
to do the same. Strict safeguards
would be placed around the sink
ing fund" he said

=. Is the gin distilled from grain
or molasses!
There are several sources from which
spirits for gin can be distilled. The two
most widely used are grain and molasses.
Grain is the time-honored and more ex-
pensive source. Grain produces fine and
very desirable spirits from this standpoint.
FIeischmann's Gin, as stated on thel label,
is produced from 1000 domestic grain"
8. Is it made from spirits distilled
exclusively for gin?
The quality of well-balanced gin depends
primarily upon the quality of the spirits
used to make il.
Any distiIler knows that gin is superior
when the spirits have been distilled ex-
Clusively for the making of gin.
The FIeischmann Distilling Corporation
makes gin-and nothing else. The spirits
used for Fleischmann's Gin are distilled az
ela5iVsly for gin.

PORK PRICE HIT
BY CITY WOMAN
At AAA HEARING
Production Increase Urged
by Mrs. StreightOff as
Aid TO Farmers.

Charging high pork prices are
penalizing the consumer without
any great benefit to farmers as a
whole. Mrs. Frank Streightof. 1873 E.
33rd-st. today appeared before AAA
officials in Washington as a repre-
sentative of the Marion County
Consumers Council.
Mrs. Streightoff appeared at a
public hearing on thu corn-hog pro-
gram being conducted ~ AAA off,
Gals and cited Consumer Council
records to show that the high prices
have caused city buyers to switch
from pork to other meats and that
actually no more is being spent for
pork than when it was cheaper.
The thing to do IS to increase pro-
duction, reduce prices and thus raise
the total income for the farmers
through more widespread sales. she
declared
Other women appearing at the
hearing were Mrs. Ellen B. LAWS
Philadelphia, representing the
League Of Women Voters and Con-
sumers' Council, and Mrs. John
Boyle, representing the 10000 men,
bers of the Consumers Council here
All will argue for lower pork prices

State Senator, is in charge of the

Of the officials conducting the hear
ing The viewpoint to be presented
by the women also was upheld by
Don Montgomery, AAA Consumers
Council, who urged a program to
increase pig production, rather than
curtail it. The present cOrn-ho2
program curtails pig production by
10 per cent.
