MONMOUTH AND GENEVA PLAN NET ARGUMENT Two Teams Will Meet At 1). 11. S. Gymnasium Saturday Night — Monmouth Eagles and Ge-' neva Cardinals will renew an .old feud at Decatur high, l school gymnasium Saturday night at 8:30 o’clock when the' two teams will meet in their i first basketball game of the, (present season. Big delegations from each high school are expected to attend the, game and the general -public ' also is invited. Both teams are regarded as even ( 'ly matched and the Saturday game' I will be the first of a two-game seelies. If each team wins a game, it is highly probable that a play-off will be held later in the season. A preliminary game at 7:30 o’clock between the two second ; teams has been scheduled. Ad til Is-1 sion prices will be 5 cents fori grade school children : 10 cents for ( high school pupils and 15 cents for ; adults. Both coaches are confident and < the two teams are drilling’ every I day this week for the scrap. A I keen rivalry has existed between | the two schools for several years, and until 18st year, Geneva always had an edge. Monmouth is conceded an even chance to win this, season. o SPORT WRITERS GIVE OPINIONS Los Angeles, Nov. 30. — (U.R) —: The sports writers of this section! —a group that has nothing whatever to do with the matter — got! together last night and decided, that Michigan. Big Ten conference winner, was the logical opponent; for Southern California in the com- ■ ing Tournament of Ruses New I Year’s day football game. They decided, too, that Colgate! and Pittsburgh were the only al- [ ternatives and Colgate shaded Pitt I a bit. although this last announce-; ment was greeted with plenty of l charges of controlling and ballot i stuffing. The occasion for all these mo- I mentons verdicts was the dinner given by the tournament’s football committee to permit newspaper- ,

m."n tn witness the formality of [Southern California receiving and iaccepting an invitation to represent I the west in the annual Pasadena ; Rose Bowl classic. Actually, the Troians received land gave an affirmative answer to ■ the New Year’s day bid immediatlely after they became coast conference champions Thanksgiving 'day by defeating Washington. 9 to 6. ; Also, as a matter of fact, Mich- | igan. Pittsburgh and Colgate long I since have received “feelers” as ito their attitude in representing the best of the nation against the 1 west. The newspapermen knew all (about these things days and days! ago but that didn’t interfere with' ■ enthusiastic reception of the an-1 nouncement that Southern California was to play and it didn’t spoil the vehemence of the debate or the disorder of the balloting. The first fall for an eastern candidate brought a nomination for Knox. Bucknell and Slippery Rock were | quickly placed among the nominees and then a ballot was taken. It was found that the writers unanimously supported the idea that Michigan was the team wanted. On the theory that Michigan • might not be able to get permiss- ' i n rrom the Big Ten to break the {conference rule against post-seas-lon games, it was decided to make (a second selection but that turned lout to be an error. Don Roberts, of the Record, wantled Pitt: Sid Ziff of the Herald Express wanted Colgate; Mark Kelly ■of the Examiner wanted Pitt; Bra ; ven Ryerot the Times, wanted Col-1 gate, and so on, right up to Bob , Cronin of the News who still held i lent for Ursinns, Cronin finally was drowned out uiid it was recorded that Pitt and I Colgate were the only alternatives to Michigan. By this time the speeches had ■ become so hitter—and so boister- ■ ous—that C. Hal Reynolds, head of jthe tournament committee, begged (for no more balloting and consid|erable less noise. His probable theories were that I more* balloting might embarrass I ■U. S. C. in selecting the eastern opponent and that more noise I might result in a police call. The sports writers fell in with i the idea of stopping the voting but 'reports at 3 a. m. said some still (were arguing the merits of Pitt ■ and Colgate. Southern California, advised by I the Rose Bowl officials, will of I ;course, make the selection and invite th- eastern opponent to Rose ; Bowl. 1 At the same time, the group which attended that very fine ijanquet last night knows the sports situation in this section. Accordlingly, it Is a safe bet Michigan is first choice and Colgate and Pitt are almost tied in the runner-up | position. Saturday the Big Ten meets and at that time a ruling is expected on whether Michigan can come I west to be the first Big Ten team to appear in the Rose Bowl game (since Ohio State was beaten, 28 to 10, by California in 1921. If Michigan is eliminated the 'choice will then fall between. Pitt jand Colgate, with no other teams being considered, o COURTHOUSE Real Estate Transfers I Noah Schindler etux to Frank H.

Since the' Kirkland set-back Monday nigtit, (the players have assumed a comIpletely different attitude and will penter the Huntington game deterimined to break into the win column. The Commodores this year are composed of good basketball material, h.ut several of them lack sufficient experience. Coach Laurent believes that the team will get started in a game or two and cause plenty grief for other teams before the season is over. The Huntington game starts tonight at 8 o’clock at the Huntington community gymnasium. o BRITISH DEBT NOTE IS READY FOR DELIVERY CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE -• ♦ ♦♦ ♦ ed States insists. The "Daily Herald said the Bank of England, acting on urgent instructions from the treasury, had arranged for ship|ment of £30,000.000 to New York I for payment, if necessary. Financial quarters said insurance for [gold shipments had been arranged. The British note was expected to outline in the si congest terms the government view that postponement is essential for the maintainance of world confidence, and place responsibility for further economic chaos at Washington’s door. * - • The Daily Mail political correspondent said the note would outline Britain's financial position, jstress the alternative forms of payment, and emphasize the likely effects on American trade. Then the note will say. according to the Daily Mail, that if the Ignited States insists on payment, Britain will meet the request without delay, despite her economic situation. Payments must he made in gold, | the Daily Mail said, without prejudice to future debt installments. I The newspaper understood that MaacDonald informed Lord Tyrrell, ambassador to Paris, of the government's decision to enable . him to inform the French government. Paris, Nov. 30. — (U.R> — Premier Edouard Herriot asked parliament i today for a free hand at Geneva and confidence in his handling of | the Dec. 15 debt payment to the [ United States. i He explained to the finance and i foreign affairs committees of the > Chamber of Deputies that he is > now negotiating with Washington ■and cannot expose details, but that ■ (France would not delay in decid;|ing its position. ,1 o _ Frederick Re-elected Indianapolis, Nov. 30 — (U.R) — John E.

Tracy, gasoline tax collector in the office of Floyd E. Williamson, state auditor, resigned today. Williamson explained the resignation was forced by curtailment of personal service expenditures in his o.fice. Five others in the department also were dismussed. Williamson said.
