INDIANA ASSEMBLY IN SESSION
OPENING SESSION TODAY LIKELY TO BE BUSY MOSTLY WITH ORGANIZING ;
Gov.Elet Townsend Will Preside Today—Henry F. Schricker Will Take CharBe Monday
Preliminaries anent the beginuing of the eightieth biennial session of Indiana general assembly were completed at party caucuses last night and the way cleared for the formal opening in the state house at 10 o’clock this morning.
It was rather a drab legislative picture, as compared with 1933 and 1935, for the law makers anticipate little excitement such as prevaiied in those hectic days. The general feeling was that little new legislation ofi outstanding importance would be enacted during the next 61 days. The Democratic majorities of noth senate and house went through the formality last night at caucuses ot selecting formally the men who will be the controling forces in the assembly. The Republicans, lizewise. made their selections, but with the full knowledg~ that their chois2. for the positions will be defeated in the formal contests today. ; Lieut. Gov. .M. Clifford Towusena, who on next ‘Monday will become governor of Indiana, will preside at day’s opening session of the senate. He will be succeeded next Monday by Henry F. Schricker of Knox who wili become lieutenant-governor. '
Edward H. Stein of Blosmfield, will continue as speaker of the house, having been chosen by the Democratic majority. He was speaber at the 1935 session. :
Much of the pre-session conversation among the legislators had to do with greater safety on the highways. A study commission will place its recommendations before th 2 assembly within a few days and they will he use@ for guidance in the bills wkich will follow on the subject.
The gross income tax law, one of the outstanding issues {in the last political = campaign, Wwas little discussed, it being conceded that there avould be little changs. Retailers are demanding that they be put in the same classification as mannfacturers, farmers and wholesalers so the rate of tax will be one-fourth of one per cent instead of one per cent as at present.
The incoming administration headed by Gov. Townsend believes in the gross income tax and will book no changes which might tend to decrease the revenue, which amounts to approximately $18,000,000 annually. The liquor law is certain to ke attacked, with some legislaors demanding the right for counties bordering Illinois and Kentucky *o se'l beer on Sunday. Persons close to the incoming administration said there was little chance for passage of bills of that nature. .
Most of the 50 senatsrs and 170 r<presentatives arrived in Indianapolis during the day but only a few of them yisiteq their desk: in the legislative chambers.
Today’s session will be short, ad~journment following th: formal installation of the officers. Gov. Paul V. McNutt is scheduled to deliver his _ biennial message to a joint meeting of the assembly Friday moruing. Adjournment then will be taken until next Monday, when Lieut. Gov. Townsend will become the chief executive "of the state. He will address the legislature on Tuesday and then the real work will begin. °

LIGONIER'S RED RAIDER'S DE. FEAT THE KENDALLVILLE BASKET BALL TEAM HERE
Both LiSonier and Kendallville Now Have One Vietory to Thelr Credit :
~ Before a crowd that taxed the local gym to capacity, about 1,200 people witnessed the Kendallyille Ligonier Basket ball game here on New Years day, in which a group of confident out of towner’s were very much disappointed. In the first quarter of the game the Raiders held the ball practically all the time, giving the visitors a chance to make only one field goal which was scored by Munk, and one free throw by Bushong. Drain scored two tield goals and a free throw, Vanette a field goal and Byers and Lough each made a charity toss giv-
ing Ligonier 9-3 lead at the quarter. Kendallville made a spurt in the second half reducing Ligonier's lead at the half to 13-11.
At one time during the third qua:ter Kendallville managed to get into the lead on a basket by C. Smith but the Raiders soon overcame this one point margin and held a 16-21 }mrtin as the last quarter started and won by a 24-26 score. ~ Ligonier won the game oh foul shots which they were hitting in fine shape. The game was fast and a gréat many fouls were called but Kendallville was unable to comvert enough of the shots into points. At Kendallville early in the season the Comets beat LHS Two points and Friday the same kind of a defeat was handed back to them.
