Basketball In Spotlight For Hoosier Preps Indianapolis. Nov. 29—(UP)— The “Hoosier madness,” high school basketball, was number one on the hit parade in Indiana today as the youthful quintets settled down to steady playing until the state tourney next February. For the first time this season, hardwood activities will be stretched over a five-day period—Tuesday through Saturday—with Friday offering the heaviest firing. This week also heralds the debut of several perennial powerhouses, including Fort Wayne Central, Gary Emerson, Evansville Central, and East Chicago Washington. But New Albany's Bulldogs, who bested dangerous Silver Creek in their curtain raiser last Friday, will be the busiest club. The downstaters have three dates this week, and two of them are toughies. On Tuesday, coach Gordon! Raney's mates will entertain Corydon; the following night they will finvade up-and-coming Vincennes, and Friday night they will host state finalist Evansville Central, which opens at home against Bicknell Thursday. On Wednesday. Fort Wayne Central opens at Marion and Gary Emerson joins the hardwood brigade with a tilt at Elkhart. Other Thursday openers included East Chicago Washington at Hammond Noll and Gary Tolleston will host city rival Roosevelt. East Chicago Roosevelt will open at Terre Haute Gerstmeyer Friday, as will Gary Froebel with Gary Edison, and Brazil with Linton. The crowded list of undefeated teams will also take a dive this week in conference competition as l well as in intersectional tussles. I In-the talent-studded north cen-| tral loop, the Friday schedule offers this: Anderson will invade the goalyard of Lafayette Jefferson's state champs; Richmond’s Red Devils travel to Muncie to meet Central's state tourney finalists, and Logansport will collide with Frankfort. In the south central division, Greensburg is gunning for its! fourth straight when it meets Greencastle Friday, and Lawrenceburg and Madison, arch foes in the southeastern circuit, will clash on the latter’s court. The Evansville Central-Net Albany, Bedford-Jasper and Bloom-ington-Evansville Bosse games feature the schedule in the southern Indiana conference.

In the northern group, Fort Wayne North goes to La Porte Friday, Hammond Tech tests neighbor Hammond and Plymouth meets Peru in a central Indiana loop

The Jackets battle the Bluffton Tigers at Bluffton Tuesday in a Northeastern Indiana conference game. Friday, the Jackets open their home season against the Berne Bears, another perennial foe. Bluffton has lost to both Portland and Fort Wayne i South Side, but pulled a stunning surprise when the Tigers edged out 1 the Columbia City Eagles on that tough Columbia City floor.

In the past, chief justice Fred M. Vinson and justices Stanley F. Freed, Felix Frankfurter and Harold H. Burton have taken the view that the high court has no jurisdiction to review such cases. Justices Hugo L. Black, William O. Douglas. Frank Murphy and Wiley B. Rutledge have voted to hear past cases. Justice Robert H. Jackson. a former war crimes prosecutor, has not participated. Today’s appeals were filed by American attorneys, David F. Smith and William Logan, Jr.

But he said congress has heard “too much about corruption” in the nationalist government. “If they need more military equipment let’s get it into the right hands,” he said. “Something's got to be done.” Sen. Alexander Wiley of Wisconsin, a ranking Republican member of the (senate foreign relations committee, also urged a congressional hearing for Mme. Chiang. He suggested she be called before a special joint session of the house and senate committees on foreign affairs. • The success of Mme. Chiang's mission for help appeared to hinge largely on public and congressional reaction rather than on any quick switch in the administration’s cool regard of Chiang's present regime. U. S. policy makers made it clear in advance that she would have difficulty convincing them this country should become more deeply involved in China’s civil war. Congress already has appropriated 3125,000,000 for Chinese aid but it is almost exhausted.

BRAMUGLIA IN (Cv * Vrrm p asre One) duce the Soviet mark as the sole currency in Berlin. The United States felt that unless the Berlin problem is solved soon—in weeks if not days—it will be insoluble. The feeling was that a month's study of the currency problem would find the division of Berlin into two cities so crystallized shat a unification would be impossible. Many western sources saw Bramuglia's last ditch move as a final gesture preliminary to his surrender of the post as council chairman. CHARGES (Cont. Front Page Ont) ed in congress.

Hummel said today that publisher William Loeb's facts regarding the count of the ballots cast in the Nov. 2 election in Ohio were “false." Hummel said there was a “human error of 10,000 votes in the unofficial count of the presidential ballots in Ohio, but that the error was corrected in the official count which closed Nov. 22. The official count gave president Truman a 7.107 vote plurality over Gov. Tho-
