| v a PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE A man visiting a factory was much surprised to see a machine which was a marked improvement over anything which had ever been on the market. The president of the concern explained that his company was planning for the future and that as soon as the machine was perfected it would be offered for sale. Every successful business man plans for the future or there would be no progress. Is your bank one that is looking to the future?

Field Goals ! Dear Field Goals: As a last rosort, we suggest that Coach Rippe Os Bluffton, schedule another game with Petroleum or Sturgis. /A FAN. Purdue did it. The Boilermakers downed Wisconsin at Lafayette last night, 17 to 13. It was the first defeat for the Badgers in live starts. Six field goals w*ere the result of the combined efforts of the Purdue and Wisconsin players to score from the field last night. Each team counted three two-pointers. Wisconsin had a chance to win the game on fouls, us they had 13 chances from the foul line, while Purdue had only 12. However, Holwerda tossed in 11 of the 12 for the Boilermakers, while the best Gage could do for the Badgers, was 7 out of the 13 trials. Holwerda performed in regular Don White style in tossing free throws. Hundreds of D. H. S fans are anxiously awaiting the result of “Dizzy" Steele’s effort to shake off ineligibility next Friday. Steele will take a test on Friday and it he makes a passing grade he will be eligible to play in Friday night’s battle with Auburn. The big back guardj is the main cog in the defense of the Purple and Gold and his absence from! the lineup since the end of the first | semester has crippled them greatly.! Luck to you, "Di?zy." «. Kern has been out of practice the last two evenings on account of a j sore toe. He injured the toe during the football season and it never entirely healed. He will likely be able to play Friday night, however. After being held to a two point lead in the first half of a game with Rose Poly last night, the Franklin College eagers found themselves and snowed the engineers under with a, score of 53 to 19. The first half ended, 16 to 14. Shoot a field goal for Field Goals. Now that Purdue has stopped Wisconsin and knocked (flora out of (he first iHisition. it is up to Indiana to stoplowa and start the Hawkeyes on the down grade. The Crimson plays lowa at lowa, February 22 and the Hawkeyes come to Bloomington, March 5. It is rumored that Wisconsin is 1 trying to employ Pat Page as head football coach. If Pat leaves Butler we havfe an idea that the athletic boom at the Indianapolis institution will dwindle about as rapidly as it started when Pat took up the reins there.
