Lakers Still Favored
To Win P|ayoff After
Setback al Syracuse
BY the Asseeioted Press

SYRACUSE. N. Y, April 21.-
It's beginning to look as If geogra
ply will be a major factor in de-
Gliding the National Basketball
playoff.
Syracuse tightened the best-of-
seven final playoff last night by
defeating Minneapolis, 1916, on
the home floor here.
The Lakers now lead. three
games to two, and move back
to Minneapolis where they are
favored to clinch the title with
triumph in the sixth game
Sunday night. The seventh game,
if necessary, will be at Syracuse
next Wednesday.
Were the final two games played
here, the Nationals probably would
be the choice. They are almost
unbeatable on their home court.
Last night was another example.
The Nationals allowed big
George Mikan, basketball's great
est scorer, to pitch in % points
for Minneapolis, but still won by
outrunning the Lakers.
It was Syracuse's second victory
in three games at home in this
title series. Minneapolis Squeaked
through one of the first two games
here by the margin of a single
field goal.
The Lakers have been just as
hard to get along with, once
planted in their own friendly sur
roundings. They won two one
sided games from the Mats at St.
Paul.
The Nationals, Eastern Division
champions, put most of their eggs
in the second-period basket to
prevail last night. They scored
26 points during that prosperous
quarter while holding the Lakers
to eight. This gave them a 49,
"a lead at halftime.
The Lakers, paced by Mikan
and Verne Mikkelsen who. hit for
II, rallied in the last few minutes,
but it was too late.
Doll Schayes led Syracuse with
10 points.

Farm Electrifcation Bureau

Many farmers would find it hard to
get along without adequate grain
storage and automatic feed handling
facilities. All such operations often
are concentrated In one building
Typical of this type of structure is
the granary illustrated above.
It features several electrical slime
and labor saving" helpers and is, Of
necessity, adequately wired. For only
through good wiring can the farmer
get the most out of his electrical
equipment.
In the building shown, the farmer
has-at the flick of switch-such
power operated "hired hands" as a
wagon hoist, portable elevator, floor
dump conveyor, bucket-type station
ary elevator, overhead storage bin
conveyor and corn shelter. The por-
table elevator is used to crib ear corn
in side bins, to deliver it to the shelter
or to load it into wagons. The sta
tionary elevator delivers grain from
the floor dump conveyor to the over
head conveyor, which carries it to
overhead bins.

Let's Look Inside and See Equipment Layout of Granary

Gravity chutes permit farmers TO
draw whole grain from overhead bins,
as desired. Often. granaries also are
equipped with feed grinders and
mixers. In such cases, whole grain is
dropped through connecting chutes
into a blower-equipped mill where it
is ground, and then blown into over
head feed bins. Other chutes permit
the ground grain to flow. as needed,
into the mixer.
Granaries, of the type shown, also
make ideal grain drying structures.
One or both side cribs may be used
for this purpose. Power suppliers and
College Extension Departments have
plans available for such operations.
In the illustration. it will be noted
that provisions have been made for a
No. 8 wire, individual 230-volt circuit
to handle grain drying equipment.
In addition to the equipment illus
trated, the plan also shows three
lights located on each floor OF the
granary for general illumination.
Information about electrical circuits
required for the structure, as well as
key II the electrical symbols used.
