Treasury Not
LendingHelp
Says Senator
Pay as You go
Tax Plan Faces
Delay

Washington. Jan. lS--INS Sen.
Arthur II. vandenberg (R) Mich.
today asserted that lack Of coopera.
ton on the part OF the Treasury De.
partment is slowing up the congress.
sional movement for adoption OF
the Ruml pay-asyou-go plan.
The Michigan senator also said
that the Treasury is partly respon-
sible for a widespread misconcep.
ton that adoption Of such pro-
gram means wiping out OF income
tax liability on March Is.
Congress. he said, should imme-
diately tackle the problem OF legis-
lation TO put taxpayers on a current
basis, either through the Ruml plan
or some similar method.
1T becomes increasingly evident
that something Of this sort is neces-
sary," he said. II think it could
be done speedily il the problem
could be isolated and II the Treas
ury would proceed alphabetically
with an attempt to solve the prob
lem.
Plan Misunderstood
81 have had a vast correspond
ence which indicates to me that
many people totally misunderstood
what is meant by the Ruml plan or
anything like it. They are under the
impression that March 10 will be a
holiday instead OF a payday.
And the Treasury has inviting
ly encouraged this misconception
by talking about the money it would
lose under the Ruml plan. OF
course, the truth is that II a tax
payers l943 income is approximate
ly the same as in 1912, he pays the
same tax March IS either way. ANA
the Treasury gets the money either
way.
Books Balanced
what the taxpayer gains is that
his books are balanced at the end
Of the year. And what the Treasury
loses is a bookkeeping loss spread
over the entire lifetime OF the tax
payer, which means that the i'm.
pact on the Treasury, Ike the impact
OF mortality on a life insurance
company. is spread over genera.
tons.
There are only two exceptions
to this statement II taxpayers In
come in 1912 was greater than 1t
will be in 1913, there would be an
immediate cash loss to the Treas
ury. But this can be very simply
remedied by appling the 1913 col
lection to either 1912 or 1913 in.
come, whichever is the larger.
The other exception will arise
some day in the future when
boom year is followed by a deDres-
sion year and the taxpayer under
the existing system has to pay in
come taxes out OF his depression
income.

Mac Even Posts New

Take Bowling Lead

AS the second half of the Green

4 new leader and a new record.
Vitamen forged to the front with
a close but neat 2 out of 3 win
over the first-half pinfall champs.

Lloyd Mac Even rolled a new
record into the books when he
smashed his way to a new lndlVl-

Grizzlies By 45-8;
CHM. A. Here TONIGHT

The freshly shorn Grizzlies pre-
served their winless record by
giving way to coach Andy Farkas'
st. Johns active cagers in list
less 45-8 affair last week. Had the
little Johnnie coach left his ''first
five" in more than half of the
game he would very likely have
seen the score mount to beyond
the II points they scored against
Greenbelt in their first meeting.
Scoring Hot and Heavy
Chuck Dudley and Pat Rhodes
led the early scoring, while George
Hughes and Tom Sipple dominated
in later going.
The first quarter was Is to 0
whitewash as Mahlon Eshbaugh
missed a lay up shot. They next
period brought in a Second team"
for the Johnnies and points by
Allen Gillian and Jim Scordellis
tied the victors' output for the
stanZa.
Feeble Retalia ton
Scordellis made Greenbelt's two
points in the third canto, as the
score was upped to "a to 7. Teddy
Fox dropped in a freebie for the
locals last mark as II more coun-
ters were chalked up by the Wash

quiet, almost bashful, little man
could be the driving power on the
greatest pro football team of all.
Farkas made hit with the
kids at St. Johns when he was
installed as head coach and he is
making good with everyone con-
nected with the scholastic physical
program hereabouts.
Andy was born at Clay Center,
Ohio a short 26 years ago. His
high school days were divided
between st. JOHNS of Toledo, Ohio
and U. of D. High in Detroit,
Michigan. He was graduated from
four years of college at Detroit
University before coming to Wash
ington.
Most everyone is quite familiar
with Andy's All-America exploits
at Detroit and his Redskin career
but in high school his best sport
was baseball. He was 400 hitter
and played first base and center
field. He played a guard position
on the BASKETBALL team to be
three-letter man. At college he
played football and basketball, the
diamond sport being started by
U. of D. the year after Andy got
his sheepskin.
At Is years of age, Andy was
captain of the Senators, backed by
the Toledo Blade paper. In Toledo
the newspapers sponsored a PAIR
of leagues and called them the
American and National, the teams
adopted names of their big league
counterparts such as Senators,
Braves, Reds, Giants, etc. In 1882
the Senators were champs, featur-
ing the big bat of little Farkas.
Andy's godfather owned the
Toledo Mud Hens of the Amer
ican Association at that time and
the lads fine hitting and all round
capabilities attracted an offer from
the New York Yankees to place
him in their chain! His dad OBJ
jected to his quitting school for
that type of career, so back to his
books he went. Andy played two
more summers in a Toledo semi
pro league with st. Stevens before
giving up baseball to concentrate
on the gridiron sport.
We personally wish A n d y
Farkas every success in his newly
found coaching career and con-
fidently expect great things of him.
The colorful referee of the
Greenie-J Johnnie tilt is one of the

school teams in the vicinity. He

Donoghue, Bell
Stars As Girls
Down Bowie

OOdCu muse 1NuuO > NICChOSAI
High Grizzliettes got sweet revenge
for two of che three lickings they
suffered last season when they
doubled the score on coach Mar
garet Kline's Bowie girls in the
local gym last Friday evening.
The score was 18 to 9.
Winsome Patty Day, agile little
guard, was severely scalded few
hours before game time and will
be out of school for some time.
Patty suffered second degree
burns on the side of her face,
shoulder, arm and thigh on one
side her body.
Ora Donoghue and Marion Ben
son, pretty pair of Grizzliette for
wards, were the big offensive
against Bowie; they scored 8 and
6 points, respectively. Betty Dick
son supported with two nom
chalantly executed shots for the
remaining points.
Good Guarding Game
Patty Bells play at guard was
easy to take, as was Doris Asher's.
Both girls repeatedly turned back
Bowie tally threats.
Beverly Smythe Tipped in three
from the floor and one free shot
to tally 7 points for Bowie. The
little red head, Jeanette Phelps,
got in a two pointer as well as
playing a fine floor game.
Misses Benson and Smythe got
the only scores as the first period
ended 2 up. In the second quarter,
featured by Ora Donoghue's set
shot from ten feet out and Betty
Dickson's one-handed hook shot on
a pass from Marion Benson;
Greenbelt took a GA lead. "Bev"
Smythe again made Bowie's points.
In The Red
The section of wooden stands
brought up from the softball field
were we'll filled with the best
cheering section yet mustered by
the town. Young Carl Pearson
amused the crowd with a five
minute blush when Ora Donoghue
was suddenly spilled into his lap
late in the first half.
Miss Donoghue started the
second half with a neat dupllca-
ton of Betty Dickson's earlier one
handed trick and later passed to
Miss Benson, who converted on a
lay-up shot. Marion later counted
on foul shot. Misses Phelps and
Smythe netted for three Bowie
markers and the score at three.
quarters was 13 to 7 in favor OF
the locals.
Free Shots
Over jealous guarding on the
part of Mabel James, a veteran
with three seasons behind her,
gave Benson two more chances
from the foul stripe. She con-
verted on one. Miss SmYthe kept
her record of scoring in every
period by adding the last two
points to Bowie's score.
The last two scores for Green
belt were Gagged by Donoghue and
Dickson, both on passes from
Benson.

O.E.M. Takes Lead
In Cage League;
Egli Top Scorer

The second weeks play in the
recreation Department Basketball
League saw the O. E. M. cagers
forge in front with their second
straight victory, a close 26 to 25
win over the XIII boys. Ramsdell
spanked his team with 10 points
from the floor on a free one. Bob
Egli had six double-deckers and
two freebies for IA points for the
losers to be high point man for the
two weeks play.
The Greenbelt Athletic Clubs
entry is on the bottom despite a 81
point evening. The Co-Opers got
AZ with Jim Mathers and Jack
Confair throwing in a dozen points
apiece. Micky Mcdonald led the
twin losers with 13 points.
Maryland downed the Navy De-
partment quint by 81 to 18 in the
odd game. Bill Blanchard and
Eddie Kaighn were the winning
pace-setters by looping the cords
b times each from the flor. AS was
the case last week, Richardson was
Navy's leading scorer with ~
points, this time.
Ben Goldfaden refereed two
games and Pete Labukas officiated
in the final. All games were played

stuff. More fellows turned out this
