March 15.—<U.R) — With the finals of the 23rd annual state high school basketball tournament scheduled to be played here this week-end many new schemes for elimination of the two-day 15 game playoff system were being proposed today. Friday and Saturday the 16 survivors of sectional ami regional play will meet atßutlerfieldhou.se to compete for the 1933 championship. As the season draws to a close, agitation for elimination of the more strenuous schedules. in which some teams are required to play three games in one day. in- ’ creases. Proponents of the various cbanj ges are confident that this year will bring definite action by the ! board of control of the Indiana High School association wiflt a view toward stretching elimination tournaments over another week, j <>.-e of Hie newer plans gaining the support of educators, parents j and fans in various sections of! ithe s ate provides that four weeks i elapse between the sectionals and the finals, with division tournaments the week following regionals. Under this plan, it is proposed that only four teams participate in the state finals in Indianapolis. This would eliminate the 15- ; game final tournament and the necessity for followers of the sport to spend two full days and nights in Indianapolis to attend the final playoff. Sectional play would l>e conducted under the plan now in ' effect with changes only in centers where 16 teams ate to com-1 pete.

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN I "Pity! There’s a great deal of pity wasted on the pour. Bless my soul, they don’t feel things as you think they feel them. If you let yourself be persuaded by all this sentimental nonsense, it may cost you thousands of pounds.” Thus oI d Crump warming his eoat-tails before a roaring fire at “Pardons,” radiating a fatherly slywess, and talking to cheat John Wolfe of the compassion he had stirred in the heart of Ursula Brandon. Young Aubrey, his leg in plaster-of-Paris, was able to hobble j about with two sticks. He had de-1 veloped a curious liking for Wolfe. Crump, the cynic, suspected that the mother had followed the example of the son. “I can't confess to much love for the poor.” “You are quite right, madam; they are not lovable. Leave them alone. Whatever you do, they’ll grumble.” “But one has responsibilities." “And we fulfil them. Suppose you tell me that it is Mr. Wolfe’s opinion that Navestock should be turned upside down, 1 answer you, ‘My iear madam, it is Mr. Wolfe’s business to have such opinions. Every man’s profession, including the profession of religion, is his business. Never take a so-called expert too seriously’." She looked past the lawyer into the heart of the fire. “Do you suggest that the man is not sincere?” "I suggest nothing of the kind. On the contrary, he is a thing that , 1 abominate —a fanatic. This sort ’ of man rides his hobby to death. > And he is ready to fight for it—as , young Turrell discovered.” , “Was there anything in that piece | of gossip?” . “Hector Turrell went out to thrash and got thrashed. That much is certain. I for one did not grieve.” : It was Crump who did more than ■ any other man to consolidate the i opposition in Navestock against Wolfe’s reforms. He had a reassur- ■ ing and cynical shrewdness that smiled all extravagant opinions out of court. He even purged Rev. Flemming. temporarily, of the doubts that had afflicted him. “An enthusiast always overstates his case, sir. Let things lie quiet for a year, let the mud settle. Then - we may see the bottom of the pond. < I abominate flurry. It is preposterous to think of our being hustled into some wild scheme by old C-abbe and a pair of fanatics like Wolfe and Boxall. No. Let us take any useful hints, but let us make ' our reforms at our own time and in our own way. It doesn’t do to i let passion into these things." “But supposing an epidemic should arise?" I “That is one of their platform I words. Mr Flemming. It's a ghost made of a sheet and a broomstick ' I know: that kind of ghost." Consciously, or unconsciously, i Navestock adopted Crump’s atti- I tude of stolid, sensible cynicism, i The Tory paper, extraordinarily wise for once in its career, ignored the wrhole business.

through and through with frost, t The floors and foundations of many of the cottages were so much c pulp. Wolfe, with Turpin splashing through the black flood-water, had prophesied a bad winter for Nave- j stock in the way of sickness. He was right ( By the middle of December Wolfe found himself up to the throat in < work. It was forced upon him, de- r spite his unpopularity, by the fact that he had become necessary to J the town. Threadgold’s new assistant was an amiable and bleating fool. Wolfe ran up against him now t and then, a thin youth with puzzled spectacles, a huge forehead, and a , weak, conciliatory smile. The man ] was a muff, and the people would have none of him. He could not t even gossip to the old women. The , children called him "Old Ba-lamb” t to his face. Threadgold was run off t his little pattering legs. ) Squabbles about theories gave ) way before the importunities of , facts. "The Clarion” turned aside to i attack the riparian owners who 1 were responsible for the waters of j the Wraith. “Pardons” was empty, , its mistress flown southwards < where grey olive trees and a blue 1 sea made the white walls of the > South gleam more whitely. Robert ( Flemming was spending hours be- i side sick-beds. A new wing was be- t ing built at Turrell’s brewery, and the Turrells were taken up with t bricks and mortar. Josiah Crabbe I had gone to bed with his first at- t lack of bronchitis. Navestock was 1 too busy for the moment to spend i itself in quarrels. The combatants i went into winter quarters, and I waited for warmer and more litigi- i ous weather in the spring. t It turned out that on Christmas i morning Wolfe had to walk to j Josiah Crabbe’s through three in- I ches of snow. The Lombardy pop- i lars by Josiah Crabbe's were huge, t white-bearded Druids The clouds < had broken, and a blue sky covered the world. ( Quite early, before the church bells had begun ringing and mus- I fled folk went plodding through the I snow. Wolfe had to collar a boy t and offer him a shilling to take a | letter up to Moor Farm. “1 can't 1 get through with my work by i noon,” he wrote. “More messages 1 and too much snow You must dine (alone.

tea time.” The boy had his shilling, and < couple of mince-pies at the farm. Jess was grieved. “Why couldn’t they let him have just this one day?” Her mother acted while Jess deplored. “Sally, keep the beef out of the oven. Dr. Wolfe can’t get here by noon. We’ll dine at six instead." The sparkle was soon back in Jess’s eyes. "Shall 1 do it, Mother?” “If you like, child. You had better let me.” “No, I want to try for myself. I wonder whether he will be surprised." It was a complex business—this first piling up of rebellious hair, with stray tendrils escaping, and the whole mass threatening to tumble down like a cataract. Jess had her own conception as to how her hair should be done. She was prejudiced against nets, remembering how Miss Edith Wilks’s hair looked like a sandy-coloured ferret stuffed into a rabbit-net. Ribbons, pins, and combs were scattered over Jess’s dressing table. She had borrowed her mother’s hand-glass, and between it and her own little Georgian mirror, swinging tn its mahogany frame, decision faltered hypercritically. A long black skirt lay on the bed. Jess put it on, and, holding her head a little on one side, looked at herself in a long pier-glass. What a transfiguration! She went nearer and gazed at herself almost ruefully as though she were taking leave of an old friend. A solemn mood seized her. She drew a chair before the fire, sat down, and stared at the flames. Something was happening! She had changed suddenly. Life, too, had changed. For a moment she felt a passionate desire to throw herself back into the arms of the past. "Jess, Jess, are you coming, child?” She was on the last step but one before she saw John Wolfe. He had been hanging his ulster on one of the pegs under the stairs. Jess paused with one hand on the rail, for Wolfe was standing and looking up at her with an expression that she did not understand.
