'-ABOUND S . jfSSSi TONY HiNKLS W ( ■• . Butler University Basketball Mentor ~ > Last >. eek we mentioned that one of the major interests in Indiana high school basketball this early in the season would be to follow the progress of high school clubs which earned their wav into the finals of the state tournament 'ast year. Naturally the chief interest here is to look over the prospects for last year’s state finalists to receive return ticke'a to the state classic March 16. Tg.gansport, the Hoosier champ las; year, was ranked by many critics ns a team just as sensational in accomplishments as the famous Franklin high school teem of the Vandiver days. Their winning streak did not -stop with the state tournament, but has continued into the 1934-35 schedule with seven straight victories. These wins have continued in spite of the loss of four out of their five regulars of last year, leaving only Insley to carry on where Clay. Fawcett, Horstman and Beauleau left off. Coooh Cliff Wells seems to have moulded another victory machine out of the material on hand which is a definite compliment to both b’« coa-hing ability and the system he has built up at Logansport. The te'l-tale week, however, comes this week with the meeting of the Loganberries and Jeff of Lafayette last night, which Logansnort won. and their old state finalist rivals. Tech of Indianapolis December 22 at Indianapolis. After these two battles, it wall be possible to judge jeot how strong the champs are this year. This Tech team which has possibilities of upsetting Logan's victory string, is in a situation very similar to the defending champs. Four out of five regulars were lost by graduation including their outstanding star, John Townsend. However, it will probably take Tech longer to reorganize than has been necessary at Djgansport since the lech system was built around the individual ability of Townsend, while the Logansnort offense was built around a system involving all five men out of which one individual player cannot easily be selected sa best. Tech’s record thus far shows a loss by 2 points to Frankfort, a 9pnfnt defeat at the hands of Richmond, and a victory over Muncie by fi points. Jiißt how Tech stacks up around Indianapolis will be de’ormined December 29 when they meet their old city rivals, Shorlridge. That will come after thev have had their crucial testing at the hands of Logansport, all of which fails to throw any light on what makes championship ball clubs —the svstem or the players—and until next week, yours for better basketball.

County Agent Notes Hoosier farmers of the better ! class averaged a farm inc ome of $1,341 per farm during 1933. ac- , cording to a summary of Indiana ■ farm business compiled by the ( ■ farm management department at I Purdue University, which was released recently. The $1,341 figure' ■represented the average farm in-1 I come, or pay for the operators’ la-! ; bor and capital, of 656 Indiana farmers who cooperated with the ■university in keeping accurate accounts. A comparison of the 1933 records with those of previous years shows that the period 1929-1933 ’ was one of rapidly changing prices : resulting in equally varying farm i earnings. “While the same return was ( made on the investment in 1933 as j ; was made in 1929. these two years' j represent widely different econ-1 I omic conditions.’’ says the report.. ' ’The 6.3 per cent return made in i 1933. after allowing $lO9 for the I i operator's laMr. is made possible j iby drastic cuts in operating ex- i ! nenses and large inventory gains i from grains and feed crops. Rej duced investment, which averaged $99 per acre for land and buildings , in 1929 and which was figured at I $67 per acre in 1933, also made for 1 higher rate of return in 1933 ” Recoras for 1933 were averaged by tyfes of farming areas over the. state, with divisions based on the | main differences in economic, phys-1 Heal, and biological conditions with-' iin Indiana. Summaries were pre- • pared for each area showing the organization and the return of the most profitable and the least protij table farms and variations in the farm incomes in each of the areas : in previous years was included. “Incomes on these farms should not he considered as representative of all farms in the areas or too much weight given to comparisons between areas,” states the report. “The data represent the operations of some of the more progressive farmers in each area. “However, it is reasonable to as-
