UNEMPLOYMENT CHIEF CONCERN OF IRISH RULE Minister of Economics Is Confident Problem Will Be Solved. BIG MOVES HINTED LONDON, .Tan. 20.—The unemployment is the first bis domestic problem before the Irish provisional government, but Kevin O'Higgins, minister for economics in the Irish government, is confident it can be solved. O’Higgins is a member of the Irish committee conferring with the Britsh committee on the details of the Irish act which will formally bring the Irish Free State into being. He said tbe economic rehabilitation of Ireland would be financed from grants due Ireland during the last three years from Britain. “These funds approximate $5,000,000,'' declared O’Higgins. “The money will be used to start public works, and provide employment. The unemployment git ation Is urgent, but not hopeless. Although the laboring men have presented warnings, there is no danger of a serious upheaval in Ireland. Ireland is underpopulated and under-developed. But the people are settling down to work and the government will aid them. “The Irish possess horse sense, combined with patience. They have 6een their country on the verge of economic ruin and realize cooperation by all is necessary. "The cooperative idea in industry has started a movement for the land bank to aid agricultural interests.” O’Higgins predicted the Irish lands held by titled Englishmen will be sold shortly and will pass into the hands of Irishmen. That important moves may be afoot in the Irish situation was indicated by the arrival of Sir James Craig, premier of the Union government of Ulster province. It was reported he might meet the Sinn Fein committee before his departure. Sir James said he came to consult with Colonial Secretary Winston Churchill on the Ulster frontier question “and a host of other Issues.” The Ulster Unionists ere opposed to the appointment of a commission to “adjust the boundaries of Ulster province.”

Net Notes and Gossip of the Hoosier Courts

If you do not think that basket-ball has taken hold of this State go into some Small town on Saturday night and look for the leading merchants of the town, but first locate where the basket contest contest Is being held. You won't have to look any farther. This is an unheard of state of ffairs and only goes to prove the popularity of the great net game. There will be a hot time in this town when the county high school teams gather to do battle at Tomlinson nail on Jan. 28 and 27. Just for instance, Valley Mills and West Newton, two foes of long standing, will settle their dispute in the county meet. They have played four times this season and each has won two games. One game went two over-time periods. Each team won its ga'mes on the home floor of its opponent. The tourney will settle the argument. “Be it ever so humble there’s no place like home,” is the popular refrain of any and ail basket-bail teams. It appears that in most cases the home team has a big advantage—more so than in any other sport. It is strange that some of the Innumerable army of amateur net teams playing around the city, at least some of the bet ter independent teams, do not learn more about the game by watching the good college and high school contests held here. In spite of seeing the way the net game should be played many of these teams continue to play football on the basket ball court and kick when a referee has nerve enough to try to make them play the way they should’play. It is too bad that the many teams of this town do not have better supervision and coaching. The rough and ready boys would develop into performers of class with a bit of intelligtmt training. And besides the improvement in actual playing a better attitude of sportsmanship could be taught the various teams People should remember that all of the lads who want to play basket ball are not going to high school or college. The local committee in oharce of the plans for the staging of the State High School basket-ball finals at the Fairground coliseum March 17 and IS met at the Chamber of Commerce Thursday. Those present at the conference were Principals Stuart. Buck and McComb of the three local schools; K. V. Ammerman of Manual, president of the board of control of the Indiana State High School Athletic Association, and Athletic Managers Gorman and Roach of Technical and Shortrldge, respectively. An invitation was sent to Governor McCray to attend the championship games by a committee comprised of Messrs. Welibaum, Ammerman, Gorman and Roach. The State’s chief executive Issued a statement praising the high school basket-ball sport and -especially the manner In which the State-wide tournaments are conducted. McGovern Outlines Plans if He Is Made Coach MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 20. John F. McGovern. Minnesota’s one-time all-Ameri-can quater back, today formally notified the university of Minnesota that he will accept an offer of foot ball coach on an all-year basis If tendered him. The former Gopher star held a long consultation with Lotus D. Coffman, president of the university. In the latter’s office, at which. It is understood, McGovern outlined his plan and the cooperation ho would expect in case he should receive the appointment.

‘Speed Boy’ Doug Signs

Doug Baird, champion base-runner of the American Association, yesterday renewed his contract with the Indianapolis team and he will appear again at the third-base job at Washington Bark when the 1922 Indians swing into action. The “speed boy” stole seventy-two bases last season and he was by far the best man on the paths in the league. In addition to that record Baird also finished the season with a good batting average. He has made his home here this winter and has been employed in the in- ! insurance business. Close One to Normal TERRE HAUTE. Tnd., Jan. 20.—The ' State Normal basket bail quintette defeated the Vincennes Y. M. C. A. team I last night, 25 to 23.

Carpentier and Tunney, Light Heavy Kings, Saw Real Scraps as Soldiers

(From the New York Times.) It takes time to clear muddy water, and it takes more of that same precious commodity to solve the puzzles of the boxing game. With regard to the light heavyweight class, events of the last week have drawn a clearly defined line separating the pugilistic sheep and goats in the 170-pound division. On this side of the water Gene Tunney of Greenwich Village decisively defeated Battling Levinsky, until then holder of the American light-heavyweight championship, and In London Georges Carpentier again demonstrated that there are apparently no heavyweights, light, medium or extra heavy, outside of the United States to dispute his superiority.

Therefore the stage seems set for an Interesting event, to w-it, the mingling of Tunney and Carpentier on any given evening, with the avowed intention of knocking each other into the realms of sw-eet and pleasant dreams. Such an at traction would be a tremendous drawing card for more than one good reason. Not only are these two men the leaders of their class in the world of pugilism, but they are also the chosen representatives of the fighting hosts that battled on the fields of France in the World War. It will be the A. E. F. against the poilus, the doughboy against the aviator, the old rifle and bayonet against the spad. The thousands of spectators a-t Boyle's Thirty Acres who rooted for Carpentier because the Frenchman fought In the field as well as he did in the ring will find in Tunney a champion equally worthy of their plaudits. In addition to this the men are equally matched in weight. It will not be a case of brain and brawn, or speed against endurance. Carpentier weighed 170 in his match against the late lamented

The Frenchman has a little the edge of experience, but conversely the idol of Greenwich Village has the advantage of youth. From any angle it looks like a good fight. 151 to 11 Is This^core TOLEDO, Jan. 20.—A record bas-ket-ball score for the season in thi> vicinity was made at Swanton, Ohio, last night, when tbe Arrhbold High School live defeated the home team. 151 to H.
