Thallman that Anderson high school would forfeit all but four basketball games played this season. The games forfeited include three to Muncie, two to Kokomo, Marion, Frankfort and Logansport, and one each to Scottsburg, Alexandria. Bedford. Shelbyville. Indianapolis Tech, and Jefferson of Lafayette. Hallinan was ineligible to play during the first semester because he attended Ist. Vincent's high school at Akron. O„ 30 days last fall before coming here and entering the local school. Had he not played on the Anderson team last semester he would have been eligible this semester. But under I. H. S. A. A., rules he is expected to be barred for remainder of the'season. His loss is not expected to weaken the Anderson team materially. 0 Anderson Loses The second of Decatur’s four entrants in the Fort Wayne section of the Golden Gloves tourney fell by the wayside Tuesday night when Eddie Anderson lost the decision in three rounds to King Wyatt of Fort Wayne.

THE East has a grand opportunity to see one of the greatI cst of the world's runners in | a new role this season, as Frank Wykoff, holder of the world’s record of 9.4 seconds for the 100-yard dash, makes his first appearance on an indoor track. Frank appears to be winding up a long and successful career with a final fling at something new. This Pacific coast youth, who was recently graduated from the University of Southern California, was intercollegiate champion in 1930, 10311 and 1932. and was the most important man on last year's Olympic relay team On his arrival in New York Wykoff declared that the main reason for his coming to run in the indoor

meets was to get indoor experience that would help him in the coaching profession he means to take up shortly. He’s going to get married, too, he said. in other words, winning the races he starts in is not essential, as far as Wykoff is concerned. Os course, the answer is that no outdoor runner. no matter how great, knows how he’s going to pan out on the boards. Remember Charlie Paddock’s terrific debut in 1920’ Paddock hadn't lost a race m years until he hit the boards, and then he just couldn’t run at all. On the other hand. Emmett Toppino never ran indoors until last season, and he was a sensational success. As a matter of fact, the experts give Toppino all the best of I. the bargain against Wykoff in the!

meets to come. But although Toppino surely can generate more speed and all the rest that it takes at titty yards, the 100-yard distance may prove quite a different matter for him before the season is over. It’s just another case of “you never can tell till you try.” Wykoff certainly seems to be in earnest about his marrying-and-settling -down-to-coaching plans. And what a record he leaves behind him! Aside from the titles he has held, any sportsman's heart must swell a bit for this young man. who kept on running despite attacks of influenza, despite operations that nearly finished him on at least four occasions, despite suffering broken legs twice, and despite any number of thigh injuries.

IWHATIS HOME /yJTW A ggK GARDEN?

Helps to Fireside Gardening Those who have never tried it sometimes have difficulty getting a garden plan drawn to scale, the only satisfactory and accurate manner of getting a workable plan on paper. The simplest method is to use paper ruled in squares. To save the labor of doing the job yours-ls will) ruler and pencil it is an easy matter to buy paper already so ruled. All stationers have paper ruled in squares, sometimes known as “coordinate papers,’’ this being ruled off in larger blocks on a groundwork of small units. Ea«-h square may represent a unit of measure in the garden plan, one foot square, two or five as desired. The first move is to get the outside dimensions of the garden, the length and width. Then rule off these dimensions on tlie paper to any selected scale. It is then an easy enough matter to figure out the space you wish to give to different vegetables and block off the squares or rectangles on the paper, writing in the space laid off the name of the vegetables to occupy it. The same plan is pursued in laying out a flower garden, which is
