MAROONS DEFEAT BIGGEST UPSET IN CONFERENCE Illinois' Victory Over Chicago Makes Big Ten Race Uncertain

tef-eat of Chicago last Tuesday by !)lLaol tfurnlatied th bigeest upset of iho week In conference basketball arid .aaJe t'h race an uncertain affair. As matters now stand. Indiana. Purdue ;nd Gbica-go are practically vcn. and, .! anything, tlia H.osIrs look like faoritea. Th dafoat of Illinois by Wisconsin was a pad crack at the IUini i opes, and wit-h u tough s-hodul-e thead the downstat chances are not lu its as rood as tlioss of tlu thrcs leaders. SUROOXS OUTCLASS IOWA. Th Iowa g-e-me last Saturday was no :ot for th Maroons, tor tha Hawks a ere outclassed. Tho Maroons will drop more frames imleM their team ay is improved, and Wisconsin seems be th moat !lkel quintet to bump 'hloagro whn the Maroons go to Jlad:.3nn lat In th season. Illinois was not rated hlg-h on its ;re-season record, but with Reitseh playing etellar basketball, and Waklquist and Vail also going well the UUnl proved much better than was expected. Carney, who was the, Ptar of ths downstaters last scaou, is expected to get back in the. game within he next week or ao, and his playing hould strengthen the Illinois team -reatly, so tlio-t they m-.ay be able to rim the Maroons on the Midway. The defeat by 'Wisconsin, 23-18, does not stamp the IHinl as a weak team by any means, for the. Cardinals havs the- stuff, and with their short pass yoing good are as strong cs any other outfit to the conference. Wisconsin ?hould not hare loft the. Northwestern game and did not start well against the Maroons. ' IDI-A HAS BCI.GE. Indiana, playing a ten-game schedule and not meeting Chicago, Wisconsin or Illinois, has th-e bulgft on fh rest of the league. The ITocwtlers have a better than average twrn, and in Dean they hare one of the leading scorej-s of the Big Tcn. Purdue has a harder schedule than Indiana, playing Illinois twice, with an even thane of dropping one of the two games. In addition, there Is Indiana to be reckoned with in tw contests. On their home floor the Boilermakers are a. difficult tam to upset, but as travelers they have never been particularly good.

Hannauer and Slavin stuck to their men like raw meat eloeh to a cat. The Baptist ehurc.h five did not have time to throw baskets, spending most of their time in trying to find out whore the ball was. . Van Oilder starred for Troop One while Fnimni kept dusting off the rim for tho Presbyterian troop. Nine was the first to sco.- Wilhclm caging the basket. The game see-sawed back and forth for a whif", Kuehl breaking in with two baskets, The half ended with Troop 1 at the t-hort end of an 8-4 score. The guns opened in the second half when Fromm broke loose piling up five altogether. The losers had a diffi

cult time watching Wilhclm, he registering two basket.-. While the forwards were pushing up the score Hannauer and Slavin wore keeping their opponents down, each playing a flashy game.

THE New York Central Lines have placed orders for 184,275 tons of heavy open-hearth rails, enough to lay a new single track from St. Louis to New York. In the New York Central research laboratories, out of the experience of never-ending road tests, has been developed the highest type of rail used in this country. This search for absolute dependability in rails, to carry, the weight of more and more powerful locomotives and heavier trains, insures the safety and comfort of the millions of passengers who ride each year on the New York Central Lines. The rail ingots are made on precise physical and chemical specifications. From the time the ore enters the furnaces until the rails emerge from the great rollers, every step in the process is in conformity to the most rigid scientific requirements and under the eyes of New York Central rail experts. When fabricated, the rails are subjected at the steel mills to exacting tests in machines of scientific precision. These tests are for the purpose of making certain that the finished rails are as nearly flawless as it is humanly possible to make them, and will withstand the strains of the heaviest traffic. , The 1921 rail order is an important part of the program of after-war rehabilitation undertaken by these Lines in order that they may efficiently perform a maximum share of the work of national transportation.
