Gasser were other contributors to
run the score % to 7, at half time.
Techs entire attack was a whir of
streaking players, that moved on a
fast break to feed Odegard into
position for his scoring flips.
In the third frame Sank Centre
was held without a score, and the
Tech scoring machine plowed them
under deeper furrow. Tonnell,
Gasser, Aarthun, sutton, Aarthun
and Weinstein scored in
that order to run SO to lead. The
quarter was devastating. Tech
crumbled Sank Centres defensive
like paper; they checkmated every
Sank Centre offensive effort.
Before the third quarter was far
gone, Disguised Toftness removed
his regulars to the bench and the
showers, to run in his reserves.
Surprisingly these lads battled with
a telling effort, but Tech was roll
ing along merrily on a scoring spree
that hits a team only intermittenly.
Kraftnick scored first in this
frame. Reserve center Hunt con-
nected for one of the lonely Sank
Centre buckets. Weinstein, Dobson
and Thill were in on the late Tech
scoring to run the bill to A while
Sank Centre, taken care of by the
law of averages, snaked on to 10
points.
That's as much as there was to
the ball game.
Sank Centres attack never got
under way. Guards Kringen and
Larson were hampered in getting
the ball into playing territory. For

While Tech toyed with the scor-
ing idea, and Coach Anti used var
led combinations in this coaches
dream Of what an opening game
should be, Sank Centres defensive
folded like the tents of the Arabs.
Even their counter attack never
generated spark.
Tech played constantly alert
defensive. The forwards moved
out to meet the guards. Several
times, hindering the balls advance,
Tech took possession on the ten Sec
ond ruling. Once in the back court,
Sank Centres passes were inter-
cepted or batted out, and the attack
never got into passing routine.
Sank Centre just never got into the
ball game.

DON'T KID YOURSELF

In commenting on the belief of
many that they pay no taxes"
the Kansas City Star says: The
complacency Of millions overs
taxes would be sharply upset If a
few facts were allowed to sink in"
The Star then takes a survey Of
indirect taxes" made by a large
life insurance company and shows
what the man who thinks he pays
no taxes" actually pays in taxes
each year.
Out of the $500 annual income
an $50 a month worker receives,
he pays 5000 month, or $123.48
a year, in indirect taxes that have
to be added to the cost of neces-
stiles he buys, such as food, rent,
clothing, fuel, light, recreation, in
surance and dozens of other things
about 10 per cent Of his income
in this case. And the tax total in
creases as he earns more.
You are kidding yourself when
you laugh about taxes. The less
you earn, the harder they hit you

HONGKONG, Oct. II GNSO.
Chinese resistance stiffened on the
Canton front today, again shatter-
ing japanese calculations to such
an extent that Nippon found it
necessary to land reinforcementS
at two points.
In spite of the stronger Chinese
defenses, however, the japanese
advance continued, although its
pace was slower.
japanese sources said the north
ern column in this sector crossed
the East River under cover from
naval artillery and aircraft, and
was now advancing westward, six
miles west of Waichow and only
IA miles east of Canton.
Another branch Of the Japanese
army, striking directly west from
the landing place at Bias Bay,
reached the Canton-KoWloon Rail
road the only rail link with Hong
kong, and dynamited it. Traffic
had already been halted by aerial
bombs.
Japanese forces hammering at
Canton now number about $4,000
Some of the reinforcementS are
coming from Formosa, the Japa'
nese island lying off the China
coast, where they have been held
in readiness for weeks.
Most of the landings were made
in Bias Bay, former haunt of Chi
nese pirates, but one transport
made it's way past Hongkong and
set down a contingent on the
shores of the Canton River.
Against this augmented force
it was reported, 100000 Chinese
troops from Kwangsi Province art
rushing southwark to help impede
the japanese advance.
Hongkong is beginning to fee
the shortage of supplies acutely
and prices are being doubled, espe
cially for fresh vegetables.
