Easf, West Teams To Dig in Now For Great Game

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26-Rl- The East and West Shrine teams concentrate on fooball again We'd nesday, after spending Christmas partying, sight seeing, at the movies and playing basketball.
 They really dig in, too. Saturdays annual All-Star game in Kezar Sta- dium is only three days away.
 A grey, drizzly Christmas morning put the crimp on what practice there was. But the boys appeared to be en- toying Christmas, although they were away from home.
 The West team worked inside the Stanford gym about an hour on play timing. Some of the All-Stars got up a basketball game.
 The East squad ran through plays in sweat suits at their Santa Clara camp-then adjourned to turkey.

the election was made and the re-
turns filed on that basis. Under the
1851 act the filing of separate re-
turns for 1850 and subsequent years
is not binding election and joint
returns may later be filed even
though the filing date has expired.
However, such amended returns
must be filed within the statutory
period.
Elections made in separate returns
other than the election to make

therefore, such elections must be
followed in the joint amended re-
turns.
On the other hand, the initial
filing of a joint return is binding
and cannot be changed.
Dependents May Have Gross In
come as High as $500: Formerly an
exemption could not be claimed for
a dependent whose annual earnings
were in excess of $500. The 1851
act has changed the amount that
may be earned by a dependent to
$500, bringing it in line with the
exemption allowance Of $500 for
each dependent. The change APP
plies to taxable years beginning
after Dec. 81, 1850.

Selling Old and Buying New
Residence: Previous to the passage
of the 1851 revenue act, if a tax
payer sold his residence at a price
in excess of its cost, the gain was
taxable. On the other hand, if he
realized a loss it was not deduct
ible. A long awaited relief provi-
sion has finally been written into
the law which gives the taxpayer
a much better break than under
the previous law.
Briefly, the new rule provides
that if taxpayer sells his residence
at a gain he may defer all or part
of such gain from being taxed by
building or purchasing another
residence within year before or
within a year after the sale. For
instance, if taxpayer sells his resi-
dence and realizes gain and within
the above rule purchases or builds
new residence, such gain is tax
able only to the extent that the sell
ing price of the old residence ex-
ceeds the cost of the new residence.
Should the cost of the new resi-
dence exceed the selling price Of
the old one, the basis Of the new
residence shall be reduced to the
extent of the gain.
As an illustration, if a residence
purchased in 1910 for $4,000 was
sold in 1851 for $4,000 there would
under the old.law, be a taxable gair
of $4,000. Under the new law no por
ton of the gain would be taxec
provided a substitute residence wa:
purchased within the stated period
of time and cost $4,000 or more
If the cost of the new residence was
say, only $4,000, the amount tax
able as a gain would be $1,000. II
the first instance, since the substi-
tute residence had a cost of $751;
600, its basis in case of a subsequent
sale would be $4,000.
Casually Losses: Individuals suf
fering non-business casualty losses
may now carry such losses bacl
one year and forward for five years
This privilege was denied taxpayer
under prior law. A taxpayer suffer
ing a loss from fire, storm, flooc
theft, ETC., in 1851 may carry bacl
the amount of such loss in excess Q
his income for 1851 and apply
against his 1850 income. This ma
be done by filing an amended re
turn along with a claim for refund
If the loss was not taken up b
the 1850 income, the remainder ma
be carried forward against the 1875
income and if necessary to recove
the entire loss, to the year 1856.

Montana farmer-stockman., 1951-12-15

THE REVENUE ACT of 1851 is
primarily tax raising measure and,
accordingly, has increased tax rates
on individuals, estates, trusts and
corporations and has also closed
a number of tax saving loopholes. On
the other hand, some of the pro-
visions in the new tax law and
amendments to certain sections of
the old law will benefit many tax
payers.
Rates: The normal tax rate on
individuals remains at the per-
cent level, but the surtax has been
increased about 11s4 percent over
the old rate. Two new surtax tables
are provided by the new law, one
for the year 1851 and the other
covering taxable years beginning
Nov. /, 1851, and thereafter. Since
the new surtax rates do not take
effect until Nov. l, 1851, approx
mately one-sixth of the increase will
be effective for the calendar year
1851. The full impact Of the tax in
crease will not be felt until 1852
and through to the termination date
Of the increase, which is Dec. 81,
1858.
The capital gains maximum tax
rate has been increased from Is
to Is percent. The increase, as it
affects individuals, becomes effec-
tive for taxable years beginning
Nov. l, 1851, and for corporations
the effective date is April 1, 1851.
There are number of relief pro-
visions for individual taxpayers,
which, to some extent, will nliti-
gate the heavier tax burden. Briefly,
they may be summarized as fol
lows:
Election to Use Standard Deduc.
hon: Under the old law one coulc
elect to itemize his actual deduc.
tons, or in lieu thereof, take {
standard deduction equivalent Il
10 percent of adjusted gross income
but not in excess of s., 1000 However
whichever way he elected he wa
bound by such election; this fire
quently worked to his disadvantage
Under the new law a taxpaye
may switch at any time within
the statutory period, if it is t
his advantage to do so, by film
an amended return and a claim fo
refund. An exception to the genera
rule applies to married couples VIII
have filed separate returns. Their
are three conditions that must /
met;
4. If taxpayer seeks to chang
from or to the standard deductio
after the due date, his spouse mu
also make the change.
2. Both taxpayer and his spoul
must consent to the assessment
any deficiency resulting from Il
change even though it would, othe
wise, be barred by any law or ru
Of law.
8. Taxpayer is not entitled
make the change at all if his spou
has made a binding compromi
with the commissioner for her I
lated taxable year.
This change IN the law app1
to taxable years beginning aft
1949.

The members Of the colored
women's Bowling League were
bowling great guns last Saturday
at the Huntington "55" alleys.
So many individuals bowled
well, ii was no coincidence that
the competition betw-e'e n the
teams was exciting and but four
teams managed to take all foz'
points. Bea Virgins, former
member Of the Flashes, showed
she can still knock those pins
around, although she has not
been able to bowl regularly with
the team. She equalled the
league high three-string record
held by Zoe Brown, by rolling
9o-10S-120 to total 322. Jeanne
Nunley (Crescents) demon-
strated the art Of making those
marks add up to 3l1 with strings
Of 1895 1O3.
Bowling a so average or over
Sc EN- e d contagious because l6
girls made it. The Vows took
three strings from the Anchors
with the able assistance of M.
Jones (274), and H. Harkins
(2Se), and despite the efforts Of
r. Evans (2S2). The Flashes
and the Pins split 2 and 2.
Pauline Broadnax (285) and
Rita Mills (274) were the classy
Flashes. The Arrows just ganged
up on the Clippers not allowing
them to get ahead until all
points were well wrapped. The
Cyclones and the Robins had
quite a ito do" all evening. On
each string, first one then the
other took the lead, increased 1t,
then the last four boxes turned
the tide. Gladys White (263),
and Elaine Wood (278), were the
feet winged Robins. Elsie
Springer and Gladys BecKwith
of the Cyclones bowled identical
strings totalling 279 to give the
Cyclones the edge and three
points. Gladys Beckwith is g
newcomer and a spare bowler,
but her presence was more than
appreciated by the Cyclones. 1t
Is safe to predict that some team
will make her a permanent team
member in the very near future.
Two bright stars on the Five
Stars, Virginia Jeffers (285) and
Gladys Reddick (271) helped the
Five Stars prove the undoing Of
the Ravens to the tune Of four
points. The Owls were nom
plussed by the Meteors for four
points Madge Rollins rolled a
single string Of 1O1 with one
spare and a total Of 277; Mary
Nelson made $50. The Speedyters
made it a complete victory over
the Comets, although the third
string was but one pin ahead.
Catherine Virgins (speedsters)
bowled 276.
