Gene adopted a more elasic forms of verse for his valentine to Jack, which read: "Your eyes, dear heart, "They mean a million bucks to me; "if I can close them just once more, you see."

Althogether 23 fouls were called in the 30 minutes of play. Wisconsin led most of the game. When Baker, of Wisconsin, went out on personals in the last half, Michigan obtained a three-point lead over their opponents who played four men. Later, when Litterer, of Michigan also went out, Wisconsin was unable to gain. Haubold, of Michigan and D. Koose, of Wisconsin, played the best game. The second game between Ohio and lowa, was a one-sided affair. Ohio, never hard pressed, won 17-11. lowa seemed to have difficulty in hit ting the basket, while Ohio's offense was particularly strong. Engler. Parrish and Frosehe were the cjrief scorers for Ohio, while Bi own led the loosers. The last game, aside from the issue envolved, was uninteresting. Indiana scorred a 28-7 defeat over Illinois, her rival for first place. Indiana took an early lead and held it throughout. De Voss and Heare headed the winners ami Green and Heller were the chief scorers for Illinois. o Aviator Turns 1,093 Aerial Somersaults Minneapolis, Minn., Feb. 14 —(UP) —| —A new world record of 1.093 .aerial somersaults was claimed today by Charles ‘‘Speed" Holman, St. Paul, winner of last year's New York-Spok-ane air derby.

EUROPE AIRMEN PLANNING 1928 OCEAN FLIGHTS Foreign Aviators Are Undeterred By 111 Fate Met By Countrymen Charles A. Smith, INS Staff Correspondent London. — European airmen, undeterred by the ill-fated results attending the majority of last year's attempts to emulate Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh and accomplish the crossing of the North Atlantic ocean by air, already are planning trans-ocean flights for this year. At the moment, at least seven flights are in prospect from this side of the Atlantic. Os these three are British, two are French, one is German ami one Austrian. W. G. R. Hinchliffe, the English civilian idiot who attracted attention last year by piloting Charles Levines Miss Columbia here, will make the (attempt in a Stinson Detroiter monoplane with a Wright Whirlwind engine. His machine is a similar type to that in which Brock and Schlee, the Detroiters, flew from Newfoundland to England and thence two-thirds of the way around the world. To Take Passengers Hinchliffs will be accompanied by two passengers, including an unnamed woman who is stated to be a fully qualified pilot and with considerable flying experience. The starting point will probably be the Cranwell Airdrome, Lincolnshire. The second British attempt will be made by Captain 11. H. Mclntosh in the Fokker-Bristol monoplane Princes Xenia. This is the machine on which he made an unsuccessful Atlantic trip last year, when he was driven back by bad weather only just passing the Irish coast. Both the Princess Xenia and Hinchliffe’s machine are land machines with wheel under-car-riages. The third British attempt will be made by Captain Frank Courtney, one of the most skillful of British pilots and famous as a test pilot tor several of the large aircraft manufacturing corporations. Courtney also made an attempt last year in a Dornier-Napier flying-boat, but was only able to reach Corunna, on the Spanish coast, where he was held up by bad weather for so long that he finally abandoned his I attempt. Courtney's craft this year will be a larger replica of his previous machine and in many ways his attempt is likely to prove the most important of all.He emphasizes that his attempt ' will not merely boa spectacular dash from one side of the Atlantic to the 1 other, and unless weather conditions are exceptional favorable it may not even be non-stop. Seek Worthy Ship "Everybody knows that provided an engine will keep running for any time between thirty and forty hours, an airplane can cross the Atlantic.” Courtney said in discussing his flight. "But that helps in no way towards 'the Atlantic regular service. “What we do want to find out is ! how a properly seaworthy flying-boat, equipped with radio and the requisite number of navigating Instruments, named by a competent crow, will fare under normal conditions." Meanwhile, although the matter has been frequently discussed, no official move has been made to see that future Atlantic flights are properly conducted and that till possible precautions have been taken to guard against disaster. While agreeing that the harum-scarem flights of last year should be banned in the future, officials of the air ministry here seem loath to take the initiative. It is probable that should the authorities in Washington take such steps, the air ministry would fall into line, however. o Housekeeping Course For German Brides Is Instituted In Berlin Berlin—A regular “Housfrau” course to teach prospective brides how to keep house and their parents what to buy for the dowry of their daughters, has been instituted by the League of Berlin Housewives Association. The need for instruction arose because more and more German girls are going to work in shops and offices and factories, while the marriage customs, requiring the elaborate wedding and a dowry in proportion to the wealth of the bride's parents, remains unchanged. In connection with the course the league arranged an exhibition of 'he most modern and practical furniture and especially kitchen equipment for newly married couples. The league figures that the cost of starting housekeeping in a modest but wholly modern way need not exceed SBOO. — o NOTICE The O. K.

('. —Hopefully desirous cf alleviating the prevailing depression in th- cotton industry, the South this month will lay plans for curbing its acreage in 1928. Farmers, merchants and bankers throughout the cotton l>elt have been called to meet in their respective court houses on February 15 to talk means of reducing the cotton acreage this year. Call Meetings Those "cotton meetings" wore called by J. S. Wannamaker, of St. Matthews, S. C. president of the American Cotton Association. He asked agricultural and other officials in 850 counties in the cotton belt to cooperate in the movement. Less than one week later, representatives from every cotton producing state will assemble at Jackson, Miss., for virtually the same purpose. This conference, -do l>o held February 20, was proposed by Governor Dan Moody of Texas. Governor Moody, in proposing the conference, obtained the cooperation of every chief executive in the Southern States, who appointed 15 delegates from his state, representing agiicultur.il, banking and other interests to represent the state. Combat Propaganda The purpose of the conference, besides being to formulate plans for a decided slice in production in 1928, will be to "combat propagana that the acreage this year will be larger than last year, now causing a depression in the market ’ an announcement said. Pointing to the great strides made by the South in curtailing production last year, agricultural leaders were confident that even more progress along this lino will result from the cotton conferences, jiation-wid- in scope. o Ann Arbor, Mich.—Fielding 11.

CHAMBERLAIN'S TABLETS TELL-TALE ARTERIES Are your arteries showing a tendency towards becoming hard? Do you have any difficulty in breathing, heart palpitation or dizzy spells? Look out for high blood pressure 1 It’s a dangerous condition that may cut life short. Living at the pace we do today we put too great a strain upon our vital organs, especially the liver. The liver becoming "limp” or sluggish, fails to cleanse the blood of the poisons formed in food waste. Then a toxic condition of the whole system, with heart and blood vessels affected. The liver occasionally needs a little help and there’s nothing better for this, as doctors agree, than ox gall. Ox gall is a remarkable natural stimulant for the human liver, promoting its normal active functioning so essential to real health. Dioxol tablets are genuine ox gall in dainty and tasteless form, each tablet representing 10 drops of pure ox gall. To be sure of getting the genuine ox gall, be sure of getting Dioxol. They cost less than 2c each at good druggists, and a few make a wonderful difference.

SCHOOL VS. WAR PASTOR'S TOPIC Connersville, Ind. Feb. 14—(UP) A war In the next decade of equal magnitude with the war of 10 years ago, would result in suicide to the entire world. Dr. J. S. Ward, pastor of the first M. E. church, declined here today. "It is of interest to note the terrible destruction made possible by the new inventions for wholesale slaughter and devastation" he said. "It is enough to remark that inventive genius in the discovery of destructive agencies has so far over-reached itself, that world conflict on the scale of 1914-1918 would be world suicidal. "If men and women in 1901 had been able to realize what they now know about war, they would never have permitted it. I sincerely hope our f.i»csight will bo clear enough to forestall the resort to arms ‘ ■ settle future disagreements." Dr. Ward in co ling said there were four methods of preventing future wars. "First, teach our children that the best type of heroism is heroism cf peace and not war. Second, teach them that real patritlsm is not the beating of drums nor marching soldiers with flashing swords and roaring guns. Third, teach them that the war department is to be thought of as we think of other departments of the! nation; that they are only protectors of society our jails are necessary but they are not show places. Fourth, teach them that schools and churches ate the true fortifications against a national enemy." TERRIBLE ECZEMA GOES QUICKLY Strong, Powreful Yet Safe, Surgeon’s Prescription Called Moone’s Emerald Oil Has Astonished Physicians There is one simple and inexpensive way to reduce the danger of swollen veins and bunches, and get them down to normal, and that is to apply Moone’s Emerald Oil night and morning, using the Moone’s Bandage to support them during the day. People who have painful, enlarged veins should not neglect them for they sometimes burst and cause much misery and expense. Moone’s Emerald Oil besides being so marvelously antiseptic that it destroys germs and poisons caused by germs is such a remarkable healing agent that eczema, barbers' itch, salt rheum and other inflammatory skin eruptions go in a few days. For years it has been used for boils, ulcers, abscesses ami open sores that discharge and with the most perfect success.
