BY DAVID MILES, JR.

Lexington'n Hornets Travelled
deep into the delta to blank
the Ruleville Bulldogs, 1910
for their eighth straight win
last Friday night.
The Hornets thoroughly out
classed their opponents, scor
ing II first downs to ten for
Ruleville enroute to the vic
tory.
The Bulldogs opened with
something of a dri-7e from
their own 20 to the AZ, but
were forced to punt from
that spot to Paul Hale who
returned to the Lexington %.
Lexington picked up three
first downs to their own 40
before the Ruleville defenses

alton. The Bulldogs couldn't
hold on to the ball, however,
and a tumble gave the Hor
nets the pigskin on the Rule
vile 20.
The stage was then set for
Don Barrett to bull his way
over from the three for the
first Lexington score with
only four seconds left in the
quarter. Paul Hale accounted
for the extra point.

President Kennedy and Treas
ury Secretary Dillon appear
to be serious about pushing tax
reform this year. Mr.. Dillon,
during his confirmation hear
ings, promised to produce a set
of recommendations by April.
This could mean completion
of legislation during, this ses-
sion of Congress, with the ef-
fective date next January-or
even earlier If the powers-that-
be desire. =: &
Such a prospect makes 1t
worthwhile to take another
look at TAX Reform" which
is q rather ambiguous phrase
that covers its real meaning.
Tax reform is a catch-all prop
osition which implies lower
taxes for many people-but
higher taxes for the select few
who have enjoyed special tax
"havens" or privileges.
Much Talk. Token Action
In recent years, there has
been q lot Of talk about tax
reform, but little action. In
1854, there was a reshuffling Of
the tax code, but this was more
a streamlining of what was on
the books than a basic over
haul Of the structure.
Then, in November, 1859.
Chairman Wilbur Mills Of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee held extensive hearings
pitched toward "a reduction in
tax rates without sacrificing
revenues" by plugging loop
holes. and in general, making
the tax laws fair.
The Mills Committee con-
tributed a great deal to the lit
erature on the subject of pub
fishing three volumes of expert
analysis Of tax problems and
viewpoints.
