The Durant news. (Durant, Miss.) 1882-1985, 1951-12-06

The Lexington football coach,
Woodson Earl, who is a very
fine young man and a wonder
full leader of young people, paid
a mighty fine tribute to the
members of the Tiger football
SQUAD of Durant this week in
an address before the members
of the Lexington Rotary Club.
Coach Earl, all of the foot
ball boys, managers and cheer
leaders were guests of the Lex
ington club at their weekly
luncheon. In discussing the
season just past Coach Earl
said: while we always hate
to lose we must give credit
where credit is due-and on
that night (the night we play
ed Durant) certainly Durant
had a better ball club. They
outplayed us"

styles.
OF the 1922 entries, 729 were
oil, encaustic and tempera paint
ings, 246 were water colors, gou-
aches and caseins, 40 were prints
and SO drawings. There were 78

Taxpayers can quit worrying
about how to apply two different
Federal tax rates to their 1851
income.
The Treasury will work most Of
lit out for them. Tables for figur-
ing the tax now are being pre-
pared. When they are finished,
as far as the taxpayer is con-
cerned. there will be only one tax
rate to use in returns due next
March.
The tables will reflect a blend
ing of the two rates. They will
combine the lower rate for the
first 10 months of the year. and
the higher rate effective Novem-
ber l. The result is to apply
about a sixth Of the percentage
rise to the whole years income
The full new rate applies to next
years take.
The tax itself will be on an
annual basis. not one basis for
10 months and another for two
months. Thus the taxpayer will
not have to figure out how much
income he had before November
