State Champs Meet Tough Rival
By UNITED PRESS The eyes of every prep cage fan in the: state will turn as one tonight on Muncie where basketball [reigns supreme and the Burris Owls try to derail the high -powered Ham-
mond Tech express.
It will be something of a
beat. if Scott Fisher's boys | can do it. Tech has a terrific record at stake—10 straight wins left over from last season capped by 13 more this year and a strangle hold on
the Western NIHSC lead. It appears approximately 8000 fans will watch the game with thoushnds more wishing they could—an indication that the contest is highly regarded. And well it might be.
Won Nine in Row
Burris paces the Central Conference, has won its last nine encounters and is hankering for the scalp of the state champs as few have hankered. Then there's the im7 pressively high scores the Owls make a habit of posting. They're a slam-bang bunch of ball players hooking up with an outfit that is silky smooth and deliberate. Slightly overshadowed but no less interesting is the Shelbyville-Co-lumbus game on the Bulldog floor. The ‘Golden Bears, No. 2 in the South Central Conference, could take Columbus’ lead away with a win. In any event, the meeting of two such powerhouses is sure to produce the effect of a demolition bomb. Almost unrivaled ruler of Southeastern Conference is Madison, whch certainly should have no trouble in. disposing of Vevay much as it has taken care of almost all other competition.
Anderson Gets Test
Anderson’s North Central League |j, leaders meet a tough test, taking on | J.
Frankfort, the No. 2 spot team. Offhand, one would say Anderson should win handily and probably it will. But then there’s that old unpredictablity of the Hot Dogs, lia-
ble to upset any dope sheet at the |;
wrong (or right) moment. Vincennes’ Southern Conference pacesettters must get by Washington or risk the loss of their lead to Evansville Central, which appears likely to win from 'Evangille Reitz. Ditto for South Bend Central in the Eastern NIHSC, rudely shaken up last week by Michigan City. The Bears have to dispose of Mishawaka or see their lead pass to La Porte, providing, that is, La Porte gets by Michigan City, apparently a large order now. In the Northeastern Conference mighty “Bluffton, unchallenged in the loop, diverts itself to a nonleague foe in Berne in what should be another Tiger triumph.

Real Threat to The Louis Regime
By JACK CUDDY ° United Press Staff Corresponde: it) NEW YORK, .Jan.. 31.— Red Burman of Baltimore, who tsed to = chauffeur for Jack Dempsey, tries. tonight to wrest the world heavyweight championship from Joe Louis, who once worked on the assembly line of a Deiroit
auio factory. The betting is 1) to .. 1 that Burman 2 is not man z= enough to furn i the trick. Promoter Mike Jacobs arnticipates a crowd of at least 17,000 in Madison Square Girden and a gafe of $70,000. Most experts predict Eurman will "be knpcked out within four rounds because Red Burman Baltimore Red is slow starter and because of the Brown Bomber’s physical and technical advantages. Louis will have about 11 pounds advantage in weight; he is taller, and wil, have 4 longer reach. Moreover, the champion is a much more explosive puncher, Fight Above Average
Yet, Burman, a red-headed Maryland Irishman, is making the most determined assault on Bomber Joe’s laurels since Louis copped the crown from Jim Braddock in 1937. As Louis makes the 13th {defense of the title, we discover these reasons why Burman will mage this {most determined assault: 1. Burman; at 25, is at ais peak, the most perfectly conditioned ath- | 1ete Louis ever met. He nas been itraining for nearly three months. Virtually all of the Bombej’s previous 12 challengers were washedup veterans or novices. 2. Burman, a natural cpoucher, has been schooled thoroug: aly in the Dempsey bob. and weave, ‘a style most bothersome to Shufilin’ Joe— as was proved in the Farr, Godoy and Galento scraps.
Good Body Puncher 3. Burman is not only the most
|
31 fearless opponent Louis ever tack5|led, but he also is: the best body
ouncher in the heavyweight division. Never has Louis beer; subject-
sled to such a body attack as Buras (man plans.
4, Burman may try to win by fair means or foul, because lie represents a faction. of the fdght game that is bitterly opposed to the joint
3iregime of Louis and Prompter Mike
Jacobs. It would not be surprising
16 to see this swing-low, natural bodyora puncher drop a few below the belt.
5 Burman and his gang know that Louis is 261. years old—the age when most fighters start to slip. They know that in the champion’s last bout, Dec. 16, he mage a sorry showing, although Al McCoy quit after the fifth round because of a puffed eye. They figure that Louis is ready to be taken. . Most of the experts wh saw Louis fight McCoy in Boston less than seven weeks ago agreed that the {champion looked pathetic, But they recalled that Bomber Jog was coming back after a six months’ layoff —and that he always appears logey after a layoff. While training for Birman, the champion showed no signs of slipping. In fact, Shufflir’ Joe was more impressive against his sparmates than ever before, and he did not séem to be pressing.

BLAME TERMITES ON POOR CONSTRUGTION
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Jan. 3l.— Changes in building styles and faulty construction are important reasons for increase-in termite infestations, according to W. E. McCauley, assistant entomologist of the Illinois Natural History Survey.
Speaking before pest control operators attending a short course sponsored by Purdue University, Mr. McCauley listed 13 cause®, most of them structural, for building deterioration. “More buildings are now built closer to the ground than formerly,” he said. “Framing timbers are closer to termites. “The advent of earth-filled terraces, porches and patios, with the point of juncture almost inevitably open to termites, has often resulted in contact of framing timbers with the soil, providing a termite heaven. The shortening of eaves until they are flush or almost flush with the walls increases somewhat the soil moisture adjacent to foundation walls—moisture that is favorable to termites.” For insurance against termites, vr. McCauley recommended—among other things—correct preparation of concrete mixes, cleaning of wood trash from the neighborhood of buildings and proper keying where concrete meets other masonry,

Here are two new books for those interested in bettering their homes which may be borrowed from the Central Library or through the neighborhood branches.
“BEYOND NEW ENGLAND THRESHOLDS” and “CAPE COD IN THE SUN,” both by Samuel Chamberlain (Hastings House, New York). The first work is the third volume in Mr. Chamberlain’s New England series and is composed of 200 reproductions of photographs of interiors and interior details. The views are arranged in chronological order from 1638 to 1810 and present a vivid picture of the transition from the stern and primitive types to the more luxurious and comfortable styles of the later shipping and merchant days. The second book is a compan=fon volume to “A Small House in the Sun,” both in format and content. Whether you are looking for building ideas, or merely seeking entertainment, the photographs of the New England spirit are beautiful American examples,

The old roof must be completely dry, however, before the reroofing can ‘proceed.
