Most of the So ,3OO,OOO,OOO in the
original program has been spent.
AS authorities pointed out, a public
works school house, whether erected
unconstitutionally or not. still is a
perfectly useful school house and
could hardly be torn down The
workers who built it have been paid
in legal currency even though the
payment might be illegal. The gov
eminent can't get back the cash.
Such a ruling thus would be I'M
in portant insofar as work already
done is concerned, but would pro-
hibit Congress from making future
gigantic appropriations without tell
ing the Administrator exactly how
they should be spent.
The Appeals Court will not maka
its decision for several weeks.

Times Financial Editor

INDIANA clambered into the
i financial seas last week and
came into harbor with its name
connected to two men who helped
10 make financ al news A resident
Of the state and another who lived
in indianapolis for seven years be-
came affiliated with two Of the
countrys most amazing holding
company interests-the Van SWef-
ingcns and the Associated Gas 81
Electric Co.
George Alexander Ball, Munci,
manufacturer and capitalist, was
the first TO jump into the spotlight
when he helped to organize the
Mid-America Corp, the instrument
which enabled the Van SWeringens
TO reCapturc stock control Of the
Allegheny Corp. and with it nom
inal domination C a S3000000,000
amalgamdtiOn of railroad and mis-
Ccllaneous assets.
The Van Swcringens can not
hold any stock in the Mid-America
Corp because to do so would sub
iect them to a judgment by the
banks which staged the auction sale
Of the Allegheny Corp stock. The
interests which incorporated the
MID America Corp. in Ohio Just two
days before the Allegheny Corp.
stock was sold, however, are be-
lieved to be friendly interests Of the
Van SWoringens. Mr.. Ball. for in
stance, has been director Of the
New York, Chicago 81 ST Louis
Nickel Plate Railroad, a Van
SWeringen property, for some time,
MR.. BALL was born in Green,
WI O., in 1862. In association
with four of his brothers he began
the manufacture Of glass at Buff
falo. NJ Y, in 1888 In the same
year ne transported his activities
to Muncie, Ind, and has remained
there ever since. He is vice preSi-
dent of the Ball Brothers Co, the
largest glass manufacturing plant
in the world
Associated with his brothers Mr..
Ball has donated $1,000000 or more
to educational and welfare work.
Among those sharing in this burst
of bcnehcence was Ball Teachers
College Indiana State Normal
SCHOOL,, buildings for the Young
Mems Christian Association and
the Young Womcn's Christian As
ISOLATION at Muncie; Ball Memorial
Hospital and the James Whicomb
Riley Childrens Hospital in this
city.
In explaining his connection with
the Mid-America Corp. Mr. Ball
declared that the action was made
necessary by the situation that had
developed. He said that the matter
was put mp to him a few weeks
prior to the formation of the Ohio
corporation and that his coneC-
ton with it dates from that time.
Mr. Bali attended the auction sale
Of the Allegheny Corp. securities in
New YORK, although the bidding
was done by Col Leonard P. Ayres,
vice president of a Cleveland bank
ing institution.

invite Villanova, the team that
beat the original favorite, Temple.
After all, Coach Harry Stuhldre-
her, was one of the Four Horse
men at Notre Dame, and therefore
far from an unknown in football.
He would almost match but not
quite Pop" Warmers fame.
The proposition. carrying its
$1,000 guarantee, was put up to
the Villanova coach, who rubbed
his chin thoughtfully az he tried
to figure just how far $4,000 would
go in covering the expenses of a
visiting party to Miami Of upwards
of As individuals, for a period ap-
proximating a week, or possibly 10
days out of Philadelphia.
Asked for $500
Stuhldreher didn't quite think
the $500 would stretch to Miami
and back, and forthwith went on
record to that effect, suggesting
$500 would about cover the
"nut."
From then on there was nothing
but silence from Miami, and the
first thing Villanova and Stuhl
dreher knew, Catholic University
of America, of Washington, was
not only "in the bag" but in the
Orange Bowl.
1t has been this observers good
fortune to be in Miami on the
occasion of one Of the predecessors
to the Orange Bowl classic, which
was inaugurated last year with
Bucknell playing Miami Univer-
sity. and winning by 26 to 0.
A year previous to that, Miami
University had played host to
New York University on New Year
Day and that particular game
made Miami quite football con
scious on January l, 1884. the
day Lou Little and his Columbia
Lions were winning from Stan

great throng of visitors from all
over the country, many Of whom
were seeking an athletic recrea-
ton for that day which would not
involve fighting the tremendous
Tropical Park race-track follow
ing of the New Year Day.
The New York team went to
Miami by boat, arriving just after
Christmas and being widely en-
tertained in the days preceding
the game. Coach Howard Cam
declared his players found no

Grayson was the poll leader a
year ago, but Biese, of Minnesota,
was strong competitor this time.
Incidentally. Grayson and Mos
Grip are two-time members of the
team. They qualified last year
also.
For several of the positions the
voting was exceedingly close.
Three 7 the second team linemen,
Smith, of Minnesota; Michaels, of
Villanova; Tinsley, L. S. us crack
end; and Riley Smith, of Alabama,
at quarterback, just missed first

Few Votes Separate
Only a feI votes separated the
third team nominees and most of
those listed for honorable mention.
Birmingham, the California end,
Rukas, the L. S. U. tackle, and
Gilbert, the Auburn center, re-
Ceived heavy support.
None on the list received fewer
than 20 first team votes.
Sectionally, the Hearst ALL
America is dominated by the Mid
western area.
Six of the nominees are from
that district. The California Sec
tor, thanks to Stanford'S three
time Rose Bowl host, named three
and the East and Southwest quail
fled the remaining two.
South Fails
For the first time in several
season the South failed to win
first team ranking for at least
one of its gridiron representatives.
Tinsley and Riley Smith came
closest.
The quality of the play in Dixie
this fall fell below the high stand

together with the rise of Texas
football explains the absence Of

Under Wraps

Of the Catholic University football
team, was confined to his room
by the University physician last
night, due to a serious cold. Multi
gan developed severe headaches,
and it is believed that he may
have touch of the grippe which

The Cardinal grid ace will prob
ably remain abed over the week
end. Coach Dutch Bergman is not
taking any chances with his team
and consequently Mulligan will be
kept under wraps until he is COM
pletely recovered. He probably
will start practice by the middle

to the Brooklanders to grace
the Orange Bowl, Miami, is re-

by Villanova for having re-
jected a Miami bid, the same be-
ing that $4,000 was not a suffi-
cient guarantee to take a squad
of SO men from Philadelphia to
Miami, as well as two trainers
and the assistant coaches, team
managers, etc.
Sees Many Benefits
So Villanova's inability to see
the guarantee is the good fortune
of Catholic University, which
looks upon $4,000 as sufficient to
cover all expenses. In addition,
the Brooklanders envision untold
value in the notoriety, or publicity,
If you please, their college will re-
ceive for participating in this
game of national import.
Incidentally, Catholic Univer-
sity has fallen heir to the honor
of representing the North, through
an interesting series of circum-
stances which might bear repeat,

The Orange Bowl committee
originally had its eye on Temple
University, and sounded out the
feeling there before the Temple
Villanova football game of Novem-
Der %.
That proved one of the upsets
Of the current season, particularly
in view of the strength Temple
showed in turning back unde-
feated Marquette the Saturday
before.
Miami previously felt that if
only it could land Temple, with
the colorful Coach Pop Warner at
the helm, the Orange Bowl in
Miami would be packed next New
Year Day.
Some Fast Thinking
Well, Villanova spanked Temple
on November % by the score of
81 to IA and the Miami Rose Bowl
committee had to do some fast
thinking. It decided that if
Temple wasn't available in view of
its having bowed to Villanova, why.
