ITHE SPIRIT OF RESEARCH By GEORGE S. BENSON ' President of Harding dollego Searcy. Arkansas
WHAT HAS happened to the half-starved genius, who used to toil in some lonely attic, hoping to invent the wonder of the age? His day is just about over. There are riot so many of these lonewolf inventon as there were-in grandpa’s time. Don’t we give patents any more? -It isn’t that. America is still the land of liberty and opportunity. A man can still build his gadget and risk his shirt—in hope of making his first million. Some do. That spirit remains. > But better ways have been found. The newer term “research” is gradually replacing the older term ■“invention.” Our Complex age has 1 made specialization necessary, and this has been true of invention, or product development. To solve the problems of the day, the new way is to bring together many different minds, each highly trained in its own way. Industry- is doing just this, and we call it research. Money for THE SPIRIT of the Research attic inventor is ® there, but the tools and the methods are different. While the half-starved inventor struggled along with almost no financial .backing, the modern research team requires and uses vast amounts of money. Now, I wonder if Joe Doe, member of Local 382, understands why his company put down in its 19.47 annual report: for Research and Development, 32,000,000. In round figures, that was the sum spent last year by a company that employs about 8,000 persons. Some companies spend more. One of the firms that manufacture rayon reports that it has spent more

than $30,000,000 since it became interested in that product. True, it may seem like a lot of money your company is spending for research, Joe. But remember this: research money comes right back to you in a thousand ways. Spirit of ACTUALLY, the comAmerica pany that does not * spend for research, for better ways of producing better {>roducts, is a company that will ose out and close down in the long run. A more enterprising competitor will wind up with the consumer’s dollar! >. The company that spends for research is the company that I would want to work for. It is also the company whose stock I’d be willing to buy. I am convinced that when many industries are putting large sums of money into research, to find the answers to problems that face them and the consumer, that money is well spent. Years of time and millions of dollars may be behind a new product. But it may be worth far more. Many a new job and a much better product may be the result. t rI mentioned rayon. Nowadays, nylon is newer. The DuPont Company spent 11 years of research before they could even announce nylon, and used up $11,000,000 before a penny was earned from the product. That kind of thing can happen only in America, and under free enterprise. The freedom to venture and to look for the better way of doing things, for the newer and better product, belongs to the spirit of America, and it is responsible for our high wages and our high standard of living.

Portland, winner of the Jay County meet, jumped from 9th to 7th in the H.F.C. Tech dropped out of the top 10 when they lost a heartbreaker to the defending champs 44-42. They were replaced by the Richmond Red Devils who have won their last two outings. Tuesday they beat a strong New Castle qujntet ana then swamped Logansport on Friday. Sweet Alice of Vincennes made two in a row over their arch rival the oft dulled Washington Hatchets 41-31. Muncie Central, now that they have settled their internal differences, have won six of their last seven games. Coach Walter Riggs of the Evansville Bears means business when he tells his boys to keep in training. He suspended seven of his varsity for attending a party following a game at Washington on the 14th of January. They will, however, be back in uniform for this week’s game, when they entertain the Jasper Wildcats. Our Howe Hornets put the sting on the Blue Devils and pulled up with a surprise victory 35-32. They now have a 4 and 7 record. They travel down to the lair of the Bloomington Panthers Friday night Tech will tangle with a N.C.C. foe, the Muncie Bearcats on Friday and then take on a city opponent, Cathedral, Saturday. Both of these games will be in the Tech goal hall.

Plugs Capture County Crown The Spark Plugs became county champs in basketball for the second straight year by defeating Beech Grove 38 to 30, Ben Davis •44 to 33, and Warren Central 37 to 35. The Plugs led throughout most of the game with Beech Grove, but a late Hornet rally in the last quarter almost spelled defeat for the Sparkies. With two minutes remaining in the game, the score was 32 to 30; the rally being led by big Bob Switzer. Konny King deflated the Beech Grove hopes as he drove in for three quick fielders. King led the scoring with 14 points.
The second game on the Spark Plug agenda was an altogether different type of a contest with the Ben Davis Giants in the 'game only during the first few minutes. Coach Charles Nay rested his boys most* of the last half as they had piled up a 34 to 13 halftime score. The Plug offense was balanced with King being high as he hit the nets for 4 field goals and 3 free throws. Dick Christie was the most effective shooter for Ben Davis pouring in 13 points. The third and last game was one of “once in a lifetime affairs.” The Warriors jumped into a 6 to 1 lead, but the Plugs led by their diminutive guard, Konny King, drove into a 7 to 6 lead. From that point on till the end of the half it was Speedway leading all the way, being in front at the intermission, 21 to 14. The Warriors kept hacking away at that lead the second half and with 40 seconds remaining they were ahead 33 to 31. Jack Mayhugh took up the slack left when Ray Stewart and Konny King left the ball game. Mayhugh connected on two long shots to keep the Plugs in the game. Jack Vaughn, sub for King, sent the bal| through the hoop in the “sudden death” overtime to win the Marathon for the Plugs. Mayhugh was high for the game with 15 points.
