A cotton crop of 4,752,OOo bales of
478 pounds each from 25,o25,ooo acres
is the official estimate in India for this
year. i his represents an increase of about
81 per cent as compared with the 1884

has been upward for several years.
Indian cotton is the shortest staple i'll
commercial use, most of the crop rang
ing from 3-8 to 7-8 inch. The Indian
government has been trying to increase
length of the average staple to make it
more nearly comparable with other cot
tons sold in world markets. Should these
efforts be successful, it will be of special
interest to American growers whose cot
ton is largely in the 7-8 to one-inch
class.

Tex, where he attended St. Mary's university.
 St. Mary's was, and still is, a small school, but even back at the turn of the century Joe Erps couldn't make the team because he was too small Today he stands five feet seven inches tall shorter than almost all of the youngsters who report to try out for places on his teams.
 His first hand acquaintance with basketball came on San Antonio in- dependent teams. He went to Colo rado Springs in 1906 and commanded immediate attention by turning out YMCA basketball teams that beat a good many Rocky Mountain con- ference college quintets. In 1910 he began coaching Colorado Springs high school teams in addition to handling his other duties, and a few years later he was put on the high school faculty, full time.
 Talent For Colleges
 His Colorado Springs quintets not only have made basketball history in Colorado prep circles, but have been a leading source of college basketball talent. In the past few years pro- ducts of the Erps school have won places on the college teams at Den yer university, Colorado university, Wyoming university, Colorado co1- lege, Colorado School of Mines and Western Satte college. Every few years Colorado college, situated in Colorado Springs is able to put out a startling lineup composed entirely of former Terrors.
 Colleges have tried in vain to lure Erps from his high school job He likes to work with the youngsters, and watch them develop from awk- ward kids into polished basketball players. College coaches tell you that Erps- coached men are flawless- ly grounded in fundamentals. He keeps a squad of 100 boys busy all through the basketball season, con- stantly watching for likely pros poets. And he does it without an as- sistant, too.
 Erps introduced the pivot play in Colorado basketball 25 years ago For the past few years opposing coaches have been trying to solve his "stratified zone' defensesa a com bination of the zone and man-to- man style of play. He is true pio- neer in basketball, this white-faired veteran who has to look up at all his players. and who wasn't able to make the team himself in either high school or college.

Out west they call Joseph w. Erps the dean of high school basketball coaches.
 His hair is snow white and get ting a little thin on top. He won't tell you how old he is, but he's been connected with basketball in Colo rado Springs, Colo, since 1906.
 Erps as been connected with Colo rado Springs high school ever since 1910, except for three postwar years when he was in Denver-and his basketeers have won nine Colorado State high school basketball cham pionships for Colorado Springs.
 Colorado Springs high school ath- letic teams are known as "Terrors' and they certainly are just that to the rest of the basketball teams in in Colorado. It's customary in Colo rado. when high school basketball championships are being discussed, to start talking about Joe Erps' Ter TOTS and then try to figure who has a chance of beating them out. Be- sides winning nine state titles Erps- coached teams have been runners up or semi-finalists on numerous other occasion. They are always a factor in the state tournament.
 His state championships were gain- ed in 1911, 1912, 1914, 1916. 1917, 1918, 1919, 1892 and 1885. His present team looks good enough to make it ten, al- though the competition is keener than ever and the rest of the Colo rado schools are laying" for the Terrors.
