PURDUE HOLDS BIG TEN LEAD Beat Northwestern For Eighth In Row As Indiana Loses First Chicago. Fob. 17.- (U.PJ— 1 seated in eight games, victorious over all its opponents at loast once and superior offensively to every team in the league. Purdue university thoroughly dominated the Big Ten basketball race today. Until last week. Purdue had been forced to share honors with Indiana. But Ohio State solved that problem, at least temporarily, by defeating the Hoosiers at Columbus, 43 to 34. It was the first defeat in eight starts for Indiana and H came while Purdue was trouncing Northwestern. 31 to 27. at Lafayette. The Boilermakers have the best offensive record in the conference, averaging 42 points a game, and | are second only to Illinois defensively. Purdue’s opponents have averaged 26points per game while Illini foes have averaged 23. In addition, Hirdue seems destined to produce tne leading individual scorer in Capt. Bob Kessler. Kessler has rolled up lot) | points 1 neignt games, two less ' than Bill Haarlow of Chicago, who has played in one more contest. . Northwesfem put on one ol the [ gamest rallies ever seen at Lafayette in the final half of the game I Saturday night, but it fell short of J victory. With four minutes left ’ to play the Wildcats were trailing i 25 to 15. With four seconds left to play they were behind 29 to 27. Kessler sewed it up then with a sleeper as the g?.n went off. Indiana was unfortunate enough to run into Ohio State when the Buckeyes were hot. The Ohioans held Ken Gunning, the Hoosiers’ sharp shooting forward, to one field goal. Warren Whitlinger. Buck- ! eye captain, made six baskets and four free throws. | Northwestern will get another I crack at Purdue next Saturday and the Wildcats will have the advantage ot thteir home floor. They seem to be the only hope to upset I the leader. Tonight's games will send Michigan against Indiana at Bloomington; Wisconsin against lowa at lowa City, and Illinois against Northwestern at Evanston. Games this week: Monday Michigan at Indiana. i Wisconsin at lowa. Illinois at Northwestern.

NAMES in the NEWS ONE of the first things a cub reporter learns is that names make news. There are two kinds of names which make news. Names of people. And names of things—products and services—things which touch you more closely than the thunderings of a Senator or the escapades of a Prince. Look through the advertisements in this newspaper and you’ll see names you’ve known most of your life. Dependable names — names that stand for value — announcing improvements in quality, improvements in service, new’ and better ways to perform old household tasks, ways to save money and raise vour standard of living. Follow the news those names are making, day after day. Read the advertisements regularly, and use them as millions of other people are doing —to keep up-to-date in the world of goods and services; to save time, effort and trouble in shopping; to help budget your expenditures and get the most for your money.
