All other Big T-xn teams will be I in action at the same time, .six of i hem engaging in conference skirmishv.s and the other two meeting strong non-conference foes. .Next in importance to the Purdue lowa game is the Illinois-Indiana battle at Champaign, which will help to break a three-way tie for third place between ilowa, lllionis and Indiana. In the other two conference games Wisconsin meets Minnesota at Minneapolis and Chicago plays northwestern at Evanston. Outside tie conference Ohio State engages Marquette at Milwaukee and Michigan meets Michigan Slate at East Lansing.

, Coming through with a rush in I the final quarter, the Decatur ComI modores snapped a three-game los- ! ing streik by turning in a well- deI served victory over the New Haven I Bull Dogs. 000 incidentally. the 35 points scored ■by the Commies last night was the highest total a Commodore team has scored for several years. In most games played by the locals, a tigiit defensive game has resulted. 000 Tonight the Commies battle the Berne Hears at Berne at 8.30 o'lock. If cold weather lets up a little by night, a large crowd of fans is expected to follow the team. 000 The Heine Review says: A real treat is in store for net fans Fridny evening. At 6:45 o'clock two picked teams will play a basketlball 1 game, the players all wearing boxj ing gloves. This should afford a lot of tun. At 7:30 o'clock will be the ■second team game and at 8:30 the main go between the Bears and the Commodores. A large crowd | should turn out for the Friday night games as some real basket J ball will be exhibited. 000 Saturday the Yellow Jackets will I meet the Wabash quintet at WaI bash. McNaughton, six foot four inch center is being acclaimed by I many coaches and fans as the best ' center in the northern section of ■ the state. 000 Basketbawl received a contribtl- ' tion today, signed merely "A Fan." The fan is wondering what has happened with the annual city series between the Central and St. Joe eighth grade teams. We’ve been wondering the same thing. 000 These Anderson Indians, who became eligible for high school competition February 1. hit a snag Wednesday night. After scoring victories over Newcastle .and Jeffersonville last week, the Indians were badly defeated in a return game at Newcastle, 24 to 8, scoring only one field goal. ORDER ISSUED FOR THE ARREST OF MacCRACKEN • CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) 1 heard MacCracken’s lengthy letter 1 read by the clerk. II As soon as the reading was com- | pleted Black offered his order for the arrest. Borah's was the only voice raisL ed in question and he withdrew objection when Black explained that in his opinion MacCracken had shown a “contemptuous disregard” I for the senate’s inquiry. MacCracken said he had "the I greatest respect" for the senate, I but added he considered the conI tempt action against him “a violaI tion of my constitutional rights." He informed the senate he would I seek protection in the courts. I Senate Sergeant-at-Arms Chesley I Jurney began preparation immedI lately of the writ 1 for the arreat, I and said he would take me former I "little cabinet” officer of the HoovI er administration into custody at J once. I j Today was the second time the

MacCracken ease hud been scheduled for senate consideration. Last Monday the senate ordered a postponement to give Hanslnte. Givvin and Britten time to prepare their arguments and obtain counsel. Black plainly wav upset by the sensational outcome of today's trial. During reading of the MacCraeken communication lie sat at a small table in the well of the chamber in front of the senators' desks and hastily scribbled a draft of the motion to arrest the former government official. — o— Four New Cases Os CWA Graft Reported Hn-dianapolis, Ind., Feb. 9 —(UP) —Four new cases of petty graft on civil works projects in Indiana were reported today by William H.
