COLONIALS END
VICTORY STRING
OF ELON QU|NT
By CHICK KENNY


Two undefeated college basket
ball teams full of vim, vigor and
confidence and boasting unde.
feated records of eyebrow raising
proportions came to town yester.
day for a tough workout and con-
tinued success. These visiting
quintets are nursing rude setbacks
today.
Undefeated Temple University,
boasting wins over Stanford, Him
ois and Southern Methodist,
among others, dropped its first
game of the campaign and the
opening tilt in the Eastern Inter
collegiate Basketball Conference
last night at College Park. Md,
when the lighting-faSt charges OF
Georgetown University upset the
dope and won in fairly easy fash
ion, 39-22.
STRING BROKEN
Elon College of North Carolina,
with a spotless record Of six
straight wins, which included sen
sational victories over a string OF
Southern opponents. was rudely
jolted by the undefeated George
Washington Colonials in the Tech
High gym, 1929. A disappointing
turnout of 300 was on hand for
the Colonial tilt, the receipts of
which were turned over to the
Presidents Birthday Fund.
In defeating Temple last night,
Georgetown turned up with the
unexpected and is now at the top
of the loop in a tie with Carnegie
Tech, and in addition hurdled
perhaps the toughest assignment
to be faced in loop competition,
for the time being at least.
GEORGETOWN ALL WAY
The game was Georgetown all
the way and the closest the invad-
ing Owls got to the fasttraveling
H0yas was six points, early IN the
second half, when several pot
shots at the HilltopperS' goal
brought the count to 1920.
The strong defense set up by
Georgetown was the undolng Of
the Philadelphia crew, who were
unable to to score a field goal for
the first 13 minutes of play, with
the score 1871 in the G.. U. favor.
In the second half, Temple
crossed up the Hoyas by switching
from a zone to man.toman de-
fense. The change threw the
Hoyas off their point Snagging

score from 24-12 to 1920.
OFFENSE CLICKS
Once the HilltopperS gained con-
troll of the man-to-man situation
there was no stopping them, as the
offensive tactics Of the team
clicked and the defense braced.
Temple failed to score a field
goal during the final IL minutes Of
the ball game. In fact, the Owls

Fish Houses May Be
Used for Rough Fish.

With all inland Minnesota lakes and
streams closed to taking game fish,
there is still opportunity for winter
fishermen to exercise their piscatorial
ambitions on eleven kinds of rough
fish, according to Harry E. Speakes,
director of the division of game and
fish.
The fish that may be taken by spear
ing all winter are carp, dogfish. red
horse, sheepshead, catfish, suckers, eel
pout, garfiSh and bullheads and buff
falofish not less than Is inches in
length.
Fish houses may be used for spearing
only and may not be used for angling,
in order to give full protection to the
female game fish, since very few rough
fish can be caught by angling.
Regular license requirements apply,
and both fish house and individual
fishing licenses are required for taking
rough fish.
The closing order does not apply TO
border waters, such as the st. Cro!x
and Mississippi rivers where they form
the boundary lines between Minnesota
and Wisconsin and border lakes where
regular interstate and international
agreements remain in effect.

Hcendiary Forest Fires
Ahead of Other Tunes

The 22,655 forest fires clasSed as in
cendiary in the United States Forest
Service records for 1886 showed an in
crease of more than $500 over the
5-year average. Incendiarism was the
greatest single cause of fire, accounting
for rs per cent of the fires on pro-
tected forests as compared with "a
per cent caused by smokers. In dam
age to the forests, the incendiary fires
ran far ahead of fires caused by
smokers, Al per cent as compared with
10 per cent.
Fires caused by cigarettes and
matches which careless smokers toss
into the tinder-dry forest are likely
to be discovered by the lookout or by
some operator" says the Forest Ser
vice. "The incendiary, like other Grim
inalS, works in secret and usually selects
time and place which will permit the
fire to make greatest Roadway before
it is discovered"
On the protected forest areas the
Forest Service claSsifies the causes of
fires. In 1886 there were al, 432' fires
on unprotected forest lands and only
"a, 1853 on protected forest lands al
though the protected forest acreage is
more than double the unprotected.
The cause of fires on the protected area
IN 1896 were Incendiary, 26 per cent;
smokers, "a per cent; debris burners, IA
per cent; campers, per cent, railroads
4 per cent; numbering, per cent;
lightning, z per cent. Miscellaneous
causes accounted for per cent, and 7
per cent of the fires were listed as of
unknown cause.

Pneumonia Deaths
Can Be Cut in Half

An effective weapon is now in the
hands of physicians for the treatment
of large number of pneumonia cases.
This is a serum treatment which
effectively checks the progress of the
disease in several of the commoner
types Members of the Minnesota State
Medical associations committee on
public health education call especial
attention to the treatment in bulletin
issued today because the serum treat
ment is now available through physi-
clans to people who could not formerly
pay for such treatment in Minnesota.
The physicians applaud the state 6e-
partment Of health in this bulletin for
utilizing it's funds to provide the serum
and diagnostic facilities for this pur-
pose.
The serum treatment represents the
first real progress ever made in the at
tack against the killer, pneumonia. Be-
fore it can be used it is necessary TO
find out by laboratory tests just what
organism out of the 90 different types
of pneumonia germs now identified, is
causing the disease. Specific Serllms
have been developed which are helpful
in treating five of these types; and 70
per cent of all pneumonias caused by
,pneumoccoci fall in these types.
Reliable figures show, also, that ap-
proximately half of the deaths from
these types Of pneumoniaS can be pre-
vented by use of the proper serums.
The doctors caution against delay III
securing treatment, however, since the
serurns are not effective later than four
days after appearance of the first
symptoms which usually include cough,
chill, rising temperature and pain.
