Rote back in action. Tulane has
one of the best teams in the South.
Tulane and Vanderbilt lock to be
two southern leaders next fall.
North Carolina will have the bril-
liant Justice ard the able Art Wei
ner back, but there will be many
gaps to fill. Carl Snavely will fill
them well. He usually does.
These three additions to the Irish
slate are hooked up with a far
stronger Navy team, Southern Cali

igan State and Westinghouse easy
march. This is better than the
average schedule. 1t has no de-
liberate soft spots that so many
others have. 1t will certainly be
a total of eight hard games.
NOtre Dame, like Michigan,
North Carolina and others, will
lose good men and return good
men. But you can gambIe-if
you like to gamble-that Frank
Leahy will have a firSt-class
squad with fast, hard-hitting
runners and at least two good
passers. You can also be fairly
sure he will have a good line.
What about Army's schedule? 1t
has number of soft spots, but it
also has some rough-and-rocky
bridges to cross. One of them is
Michigan. That's a sure thing.
Others can be Stanford, Pennsyl-
vania and Navy.
But outside of Michigan, there is
nc trouble ahead. This forces too
much pressure on the Michigan
game. A defeat here can play
havoc with either teams final
ranking-more with Army than
with Michigan.
Army will have a fine back
field and uncertain line strength
with such stars as YeOman,
Henry, etc., missing. Her ends
will be her strongest point.
Navy, again, has no chance to
beat her schedule. the toughest in
football. The 1949 menu includes
Southern California, Notre Dame,
Army. Pennsylvania, Duke, Prince
ton and others of heavy calibre.
But the l949 Navy squad should
move well up in the years ranking.
Oklahoma will be strong again.
Bud Wilkinson has winning grip
on the situation with a team that
can exchange class with anyone
around.

Income From Rents And
Royalties

AtCy NeNs('
All money received for amounts
accrued if on the accrual basis) as
rents or royalties in payment for
the use of property must be in
cluded in gross income. Rents may
be defined as compensation or re-
turn received by the owner of
property from the occupant for the
use Of the property. Rents ordi-
narily issue only from real prop
erty. Royalties include payments
made to an author or composer by
a licensee for every copy of his
work that is sold, or to an inventor
for each article sold under a pat
ent, etc. They also include amounts
received for granting the right to
remove coal, metal or other min
erals from land under a mining
lease. Amounts received from min
eral leases are considered royalties
and are taxed as ordinary income
and not as a capital gain even
though the mining lease consti-
tutes a sale of the mineral in place.
In the case of rents it has been
held by the Supreme Court that
where the tenant makes improve
ments to the property, even though
they may be substantial ones, the
owner Of the property does not
thereby receive. taxable income,
but if he should later sell the prop
erty he may, because of the inn
provements, realize a capital gain,
Only net rents and royalties as
distinguished from the gross
amount received are subject to the
income tax. In computing the net
rent, all ordinary and necessary
expenses incurred in the ownership
and rental of the property as well
as a depreciation allowance arc
deductible from the gross amount
received. Expenses in the manage
mem of the property as well as
expenses incurred in the collection
of the rent are deductible. Taxes
interest, depreciation, light, fuel
janitor service, repairs, utilities
and insurance paid on property
from which rent is received are al
proper deductions in computing the
net taxable rent. In this connec
ton, il is important TO distinguish
between repairs to the property
which are deductible current ex
pense and permanent improve
ments which are not classified al
current expenses and as such ma!
not be deducted. Items which con
stitute improvements should b.
capitalized and deprecated over ;
period of years. For example, l
new roof would not be considered
MS a repair item but would be con
sidered as a permanent improve
ment and as such it must be capi
talizcd and deprecated. II undo
the lease, the tenant pays the rea
property taxes, such amount ]
considered as income TO the land

landlord as taxes paid. Money re
ceived by the landlord for cancel

considered as income. There are in

Raw Material
THE ASTONISHING thing about
! Jesus choice Of these twelve is
his faith in them. OF course they
had faith in him-who would not?
But who would have faith in them?
There was not single 'outstand-
ing" man in the lot. Not one had
what we would call a college educa-
ton, not a man of them had held
public Office or was rich or famous
for anything at all.
There was Peter, an ordinary FISH
erman. much given to profanity:
there was Matthew, a crooked bus.
mess man il ever there was one.
for no publican could be honest ard
keep from starving; there was Phil
ip, as stupid man as ever asked
foolish question; there were James
and John. loud-mouthed Jesus nick
named them the Thunder Boys -
Sons Of Thunder"), greedy fellows
who could not be satisfied till they
had elbowed their way ahead Of
everybody else; there was Thomas
the born pessimist, the defeatist :.
What could have got into Jesus
mind to select such men?
and Judas Iscariot
THE SECRET of Jesus choice was
l this: He selected his men not
for what they we're or had been, but
for what they could become, filed
with his spirit, transformed by his
friendship. 1t is so today. as al
ways. The Kingdom of God needs
men and women, but the raw hu-
man material found in or out of the
churches is too shabby and weak
to build anything like the kingdom
of God.
Yet after all, 1t was never human
weakness that has built the King
dom. 1t is men reborn, re-made
by contact and companionship with
Jesus the Lord of men Now as
then, Judas is among the Twelve.
Jesus must have seen good in Ju.
das, otherwise 1t would have been
mockery TO choose him. But though
that man was with Christ for lust
as long as the others, heard what
they heard and saw what they saw,
he ended by being traitor. Twelve
immortals'-? Nay. but one is the
immortal betrayer and suicide.
Why? The reason was in Judas,
net in Jesus.
But he wants volunteers. never
forced labor. The Christ of Glory
can be served by the humble; but
the free Christ can be served only
by free men with open hearts. Ju-
das may keep his heart shut if he
Will; Christ never forces his way in.

for fuel.

that is worthy of the pride of all
Texans. In San Antonio is the
Alamo, in which about 200 sold
iers under w. B. Travis under
took to withstand an assault by
the Mexican, Santa Anna, with an
army of $500 and plenty of art
illery. For several days the bat
tie ragged and finally the walls of
the Alamo, which was an aban-
doned Catholic church, were
scaled by the Mexicans and every
man was killed, including David
Crockett and Sam Bowie. Only
three people escaped the mas
sacre, and 1900 Mexicans were
killed in the battle.
Later Gen. Sam Houston, with
800, men routed Santa Annals
much larger army at San JAG
into and won Texas independ-
which was shortly recog-
nized by England, France and
other nations. After remaining an
independent republic for several
years Texas asked to be admitted
to the American union and this
action was finally taken. This was
followed by the Mexican war and
the addition of Arizona, New
Mexico and California to the
United States. The Tories of New
England, who had drifted back
to this country after having been
driven out following the Revol-
utionary war, opposed the whole
thing from first to last.
