BY CHICK KENNY

Western Conference basketball
for the current season has come
and gone as far as washington
lis concerned. Three Big Ten
quintets appeared here during and
before the holiday campaign and
returned home a little worse for
wear.
Michigan, the first of the major
Mid-Westen court teams to show
here, bearded the Terps in their
College Park den, 43-26. Then
came the co-champion of the Con-
ference for 1887, Minnesota,
which compiled an enviable record
in preseason play and topped this
off by scoring two decisive victor
les in Madison Square Garden at
the expense of Long Island Uni
verSity and New York u, but lost
in a disappointing exhibition to
the fast travelling George Wash
ington University team New Years
night in the Tech High gym,
35-27.
TRIPS OHIO STATE
And then last night the G. w.
outfit came right back to make
it two in the row as it soundly
drubbed Ohio State, 46 to 35.
which had been showing well
throughout this early stage Of the
season.
We can safely say that the Colo
mails have ball club-not team
that is just the best in Washing
ton-but one that takes on the
proportion Of national champions.
Naturally, G. W. has pointed for
the game with the Minnesota
Gophers, with Coach Bill Rein
hart going so far as to look over
the Midwest Hurricane, which
flattened the pick of Gotham.
ONE DAY REST
However, in the case with Ohio
State, the Buff and Blue had one
day rest after the defeat Of the
Gophers, but showed the same re-
markable brand Of play that car
ried it to victory against Mime
sofa.
Against Minnesota it was the
spindle-legged Bob Faris, forward
of the Colonials, who proved the
sensation of the night and whose
fine individual performance in the
second half to break a 21-21 dead
lock was responsible for the Colo
mails going into a commanding
lead and placing the game on ice.
Last night it was George Gar.
ber, sophomore guard, who per.
formed in brilliant fashion to be
the standout of the game.
DID EVERYTHING
CARRIER staged a one-man demon
stration in the art of shooting and
guarding and did everything ex.
cept take tickets at the door and
play a horn in the G.. w. swing
band.
Jack Butterworth, bean-pole CEN
ter for George Washington, con-
tinues to improve with each game.
And last night proved whirlWind
on offense by snagging Is points
to lead the scoring in the fray.
With all due respect to Mime
sofa, this writer, who occupied a
seat high in the rafters, firmly
believes that Ohio state is the
better of the two Big Ten teams to
face G. w. The Buckeyes had
plenty of fight, were rangier and
performed better in the scrimmage
under the basket.
BEST FOR BUCKEYES
Capt. Jim Mcdonald, a ruggedly
built guard with an awkward drib-
BILE, and Dan Baughner, were best
for Ohio.
But then their fancy showing
only stood out when Coach Rein
hart inserted his second stringers
which are decidedly below the par
exhibited by the regular team.
After a slow start, G.. w. went
into the lead at IA, and raised the
count to 1853. and when the half
time whistle blew the Colonials en-
joyed a 25-16 lead.

The current staple cotton crop

Little improvement has been made
in this country in 20 years. he said,
yet the Egyptian government has
met each issue Of deterioration by
bringing out newer varieties to keep
pace with the world demand for a
standard, long-staple cotton
Slattery suggested the Government
could profitably establish a research
program to discover why United

quality from year to year.

Gold Demand Hits
Peak at London

LONDON, June Is. UP)-De-
mand for bar gold swelled to the
largest total in more than year
today coincident with a Sharpre
action in the United States dollar
on persistent rumors that the Am

and other tri-partite currencies re-
aligned.
Frantic buying by continental and
Indian hoardcrs lifted the price of
bar gold l penny to 140 shillings
9 pence an ounce, the highest level
since June g. A jump of more than
full cent in the pound sterling,
reflecting the dollar weakness, lifted
the American equivalent of the gold
quotation 10 cents to a premium
at S35.02 an ounce, new peak
since march when the Austrian
crisis created a gold rush.
