Valparaiso Is Handed First Season Loss Indianapolis. Jan. 9 — (VP) — Hoosiers settled back today, recon- < Jled to the fact that for the second coneeeeiHive season. Indiana collet > on. was in a wartime slump. 4n 1*43-44, X»tiv Ikime Purdue f*Hent'ed perhaps the.r in is* doleftrleage season in uti’iory. Results la-;; night, coupled with notes of the past few w.eks. applied the finishing touches to a aimvlar 1944-45 pattern. This (line. Valparaiso - hailed as the 4«Mt college quintet currently operating in Indiana, and the Purdue BoHermakers provided the clos- . ' ■ b| poor 1944 45 Indiana college basket- 1 sxill be tier era. ’fworld’a tallest basketball 1 scam" from Valparaiso couldn't i t>ioiv a single point in the first 10 | minute.? of play and trailed the' Great Lakes Bluejackets. 22-6 Vai-I T>.» finally wound up on the short i end of a 52-3 s score in the gamel play-d al Fort Wayne, and saw its undefeated record and 11-game-winning etreak go by tli“ boaids. ■Meanwhile. Purdue, after start!- i ing the faithful by upsetting Ohio I State last Saturday, journeyed to Minn apolis, Minn., and dropped a 49-44 decision to the Golden Gophers. Rated in the bottom fhird of the Big Ten .age performers, Minnesota took the lead on Walt Rue-; ke’u opening buck -t and never was headed. Earlier. Notre Dame absorbed a Btt-16 lacing from lowa's"boint-mad Hawkeyes while IndiOia. in its only ; etart against top-flight competition, i lost a 61-43 affair with Kentucky. And De 'Pauw. whirl#- holds vic-' Cories over Indiana and Purdue, was I an easy mark for Holy Crons and I Louisville, neither of whom expect to claim any national gage titles. Indiana tries for revenge over De Paw tonigi'at in a game at Greencastle, while Butler’s all-freshmen , Bulldogs meet Wabash at Indianapois in one of the tew and far be- • twoeu Indiana college confer nee I games.

The executive 'board of tihe city association. in eonmenting on the tourney, stated:< "Conditions were an excellent example of wnat to expect iu most tourneys, and alleys were stiff and the wood was heavy with good flat iKHtome. and it teamed at times [hat a club <waa needed to knock over the sticks. "Contention of the association is that bowlers in Decatur wiH never learn o /be tournament bowlers unless the aldeys are fairly stiff and heavy wool used for league play. less experienced bowlers wondered why tihey received wide open splits on what looked like fairly decent hits. They Jia-ve been rolling at pins tlLat are somewhat round on the bottom and, much lighter than timtber used in thi¥ tourney,” Harold Murphy, rolling with the Kraft Cheese team, gave a good exhibition of w! at can ibe done to new wood and tiff alleys. His three games were without an open frame and he banged out a fine series of 685 pins on games of 240, 211 and 234. -leading his team to a total of 2884 pins and oecond place.

After hearing the speech, both the house and senate adjourned until 10 a. m. tomorrow. Gates touched on 29 general subjects in his message. He affirmed many of the recommendations of his Democratic predecessor to tho legislators last week regarding solutions to wartime and postwar problems, and endorsed numerous recommendations of the Republican policy group. In line with Schricker’g expressed views, Gates approved wage Increases for state institutional , employes, a state-federal highway improvement program, ami increased unemployment compensation benefits. r ‘ j'Mfepommondations of Iris party’ls * poJley committee which the.'.peXy wkertjer endorsed included mes- : ittes “designated to redeem Reftlhlican state platform pledges t> organized and unorganized Mb’or.” a bill, to give the state iisasurer supervision over the gross income tax division, correclife child welfare legislation, expansion of the legislative reference bureau, and numerous‘othbt Stltriestlons. - ’y Gates urged that the public health program be improved “under the impetus provided out Os the experience of our returning fighting men." Indiana, he said, must go forward with its Sister states. Commitments on stale finances Were avoided, but the new governor said that he hoped to have ready within two weeks a special message on thirf* subject, including “a longtime rehabilitation and expansion program for our state institutions."
