day are expected to have little trouble
In signing with another National

America guard of 1885 and former
member of the Chicago Bears, and
Ben Smith, Alabama, captain of the
early 30s and formerly associated with
the Green Bay Packers and Pitts
burgh Pirates, are the pair likely to be

Michaels saw much action, but his

SHOOT TO VICTORY.
Hopkins Is No Match for
Maryland, but Owls Are
Pressed-Hoyas Bow.

Left without its anticipated holiday
basket ball game between George
Washington and Long Island because
of the badly depleted condition Of
the latter" District court fans today
could only look back to three games
Of last night, two Of which were won
by local quints.
Maryland outclassed its old rival,
Johns Hopkins. $3.50, at College Park,
and the Wilson Teachers won q 1888
thriller from Duquesne's School Of
Pharmacy five at Pittsburgh, but
Georgetown was stopped by the New
York A. c.. 1927, in one-half Of a
benefit double-header in New York.
Eddie johnson led the Maryland
assault with 20 points, but Charley
Norton's 25-point spree against Vir-
gtnia Tech earlier in the season still
stands as the most brilliant scoring
exhibition Of the Old Liners season.
Maryland's game tomorrow night
with st. Johns Is the Terps' last be-
fore competing In the Southern Con-
ference tournament at Raleigh the
flrst week In March.
Hcyas Lose Lead Early.
GEORGETOWN got of to a 60 lead
against its New York rival but q
streak Of 10 points for the Athletic
Club five gave 1t an advantage which
1t never lost. Despite counter-rally,
the Hoyas trailed by 1915 at the
half, the closest they ever came to
catching their opponent.
1t wasn't "the" Duquesne team usu-
ally thought Of in connection with
Pittsburgh that the Wilson Teachers
defeated, but their 1-point victory pro-
vided enough thrills at that. Bernie
Glllam's successful free shot in the
waning seconds broke a 1888 tie and
won the game for Doc Whites team.

BUDGET DISCUSSED

Regular Meeting Next Mon

cause of Holiday

A called meeting of the Vance
Board of County Commissioners was
held today for the purpose, it was
stated, of discussing the 1889 bud
get. That was all that could be learn
ed about the meeting, as no details
of the discussions were available
The board did agree not to hold it's
regular first-Monday meeting next
Monday on account of the Fourth Of
July holiday, and postponed the SEES
sion until Monday, July H.
It was stated that the tax listings
for this year have been recapitulated
in entirety except for the Henderson
township white list. The exact a.
mount of the years valuation was not
revealed. A number of the board stat
ed casually that there would be a cut
in the tax rate. It has been previous
ly estimated the 1888 levy would be-
about Is cents, or IA cents under the
SO cents for 1887.
It was further estimated that the
recapitulation for this year would BIZ
completed by the time the board
meets July II.
What particular phase of the bud
get was discussed at today's meeting
of the commissioners could not be
learned, and if any decisions were
reached they were withheld.

to stipulate the time when the license
should be paid and failed to prescribe
for how long time the license should
run.
The 1887 Legislature endeavored to
correct these defects, specifying when
tn license shall be bought, that it
shall run until May 81 of the next
year. 1t also provided that violations
shall be misdemeanors, punishable by
fine or imprisonment, or both.
This time the principal contention
of the tobacco company is that, the
definition of scrap tobacco is so vague
as to be indeterminahle. In the act
"scrap or united tobacco" is defined
as "any lot or parts of leaves of to-
bacco, or any lot in which parts of
leaves are commingled with whole
leaves of tobacco, or any other, leaf
or leaves Of tobacco not permitted,
under the rules and regulations Otto
bacco warehouses to be offered for
sale at auction on the tobacco ware

The heavy license levied was frank
ly said by legislators to be designed
to prohibit the sale of any scrap to-
bacco.
