Madison Racks Up Second 100 Point Victory United Press International Madison stamped itself as one of the outstanding offensive powers among Indiana prep basketball clubs Friday night by stomping little Vevay, 104-54, for its second 100-point performance in a row. The Cubs, who lost only once during the regular season last year, opened their season Tuesday by whaling Salem, 101-43. The Madison scoring rampage featured a rather light card of prep action, as most of the stte’s bigger powers remained idle until next week. Madison raced to a 57-22 halftime lead and then coasted home Buster Briley led the attack, as usual, with 32 points and Don Firth chipped in with 20. At least three other former former state champions also came up with victories. Franklin walloped Warren Central, 73-51, as Jerry Dunn hit 28 points. Jasper took the measure of hapless Salem, 69-45. Little Milan nipped Osgood, 60-56. Southport, expecting to put up a fight for the South Central Conference crown, used a balanced scoring attack to take stubborn Center Grove, 52-41. Seymour, another SCC team, was ambushed by little Silver Creek, 68-64. Mitchell crushed Greencastle, .86-47, behind Joe Raybill's 31ffetnt scoring spree. Corydon eased by Scottsburg, 29-28, in a slowmotion contest, and Rushville stopped Batesville, 65-54. In other games involving larger schools, Anders on Madison Heights downed city rival St. Mary’s 88-59; Tipton rolled over Sharpsville, 68-43; Bluffton took Hartford City, 68-54; Springs Valley edged Shawswick, 67-63; Terre Haute State dumped Glenn, 53-47, and Spencer beat Ellettsville, 57-54. Marion Pierce, Lewisville's oneman gang, was held to a mere 15 points as his team downed Cediz, 42-31. Pierce had been averaging about 45 points a game in three previous outings.

Social Security Quiz Answers Many Queries
(Editor’s Note) Do you have any questions about Social Security? We all do, don’t we? Send any question you might have to Social Security Quiz, c/o Daily Democrat You’ll find your answer in thia column, which is published regw 1. Q—For the past three years* I’ve been drawing social security benefits. Just last month I took a part-time job and my employer keeps asking me for my social security number, and deducting the social security tax from my wages. Is this necessary since I’m already getting benefits? A—Your employer is right. He is required by law to report your wages and your social security number. He is also required to pay social security tax on your wages even though you are drawing social security benefits. 2. Q—My deceased husband never worked under social security so I will not get widow’s benefits. I was born April 1899. How many quarters of credit win I need to draw social security benefits on my own? Is it necessary for the work to be done consecutively? A—You will need 20 quarters of social security credit. The work does not need to be done consecutively. Work done under social security anytime after January 1, 1937 can be counted. 3. I’ve worked under social security since 1937. It’s my understanding that my wife and children under 18 will receive monthly benefits if I should die. I also have some insurance plans to cover them in the case of my death. Will they still receive social security payments even though they will be getting other insurance pay* ments? A—Yes. Their financial status after your death, will not affect their rights to receive survivors benefits. Only earnings from employment can prevent their receiving payments. 4. Q—l am disabled and drawing disability payments from social security. Can I work and earn SI2OO a year like other social security beneficiaries wtihout losing my checks? - A—There is no earnings restriction placed on a person drawing disability benefits. If a disabled person returns to Work, he must notify the social security of-1 an. investigation to determine if 1
an investigation to determine of the disability has ended. All disabled workers who have gotten a disability freeze or who are draw- 1 ing disability payments must notify the social security administraton if they begin to work again kt any job. 5. When my brother was killed in an accident, his burial expenses were paid by his life Insurance. There was no named beneficiary. He was unmarried. I am his only heir. Who will get his lump sum death payment? A—Since there was neither a surviving spouse nor a named beneficiary to the insurance, your brother’s estate is eligible for the lump sum death payment. As you are the only heir, you may apply or the lump sum death payment on behalf of his estate. 6. Q—The social security office told me that there is no one worker who is now receiving a retiremene benefit of $127 a month. Why is this? A—The 1958 change in the law provides that $127 will be the maximum monthly benefits that may be payable to a single retired worker. But this maximum is based on average monthly earnings as high as S4OO . It will be many years before retirement benefits can be based on average earnings of this amount. This is because no one can have credit of earnings of more than $350 a month in any one year before 1959.
