INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 29 ;UP)—Hoosier legislators today faced their busiest week of the 1945 general assembly in order to get under the wire for the deadline of offering new bills In conformity with the 30-day rule. Governor Gates will present his first budget message after a three-week study of pressing financial problems revolving about the question of maintaining the multi-million dollar state general fund budget, while providing for increased costs of state gov-
ernment.
Observers were uncertain whether Gates would call for new taxation to build up the general fund to even higher levels. Legislators and taxpayer groups have not taken kindly to suggestions of an increase in the
cigarette tax levy.
The governor, however, was expected to ask the general assembly to permit cities and towns to establish reserve funds to cushion the shock of postwar unemployment and to meet the needs of returning veterans. Republican majority leaders in the legislature and state officials j have suggested repeatedly that the general fund should be protected as postwar insurance, but Gates himself believes that the question of a soldiers’ bonus was cne for the federal government A Democratic minority bill has been ir^roduced to create a $30,000,OOu veterans' benefits fund. So far, little has been done at this session to carry out the Republican party legislative pledges, except on the subject of reorganizing the state welfare setup, but many new bills dealing with party policy will be of-
Tigers Win An Overtime Tilt
DePauw's basketball team, which lost by one point to a strong Miaiii, Ohio, squad Friday night, had their hands full again Saturday evening against Earlham, over in Richmond. The contest was all tied up at 27-27 at the half, and at the end of the regulation playing time it was 54 to 54. The Tigers outscorod the Quakers, 6 to 3 in the extra session, and emerged the winners by a 3-point marg.n, 60 to 57. Earl (Red) Gardner was individual high scorer for the Old Gold with 5 field goals and four free throws. From accounts of the game, Ddrauw's defense was “not so hot.” Pegg, Earlham forward, chalked up 9 buckets and 7 tosses from the charity stripe to lead his team's offensive with 2-3
points.

JONE*. GEORGE BEFORE HEARING
fered before Friday’s deadline for introduction of new measur-
es.
In the first 25 days of the ression. the representatives and senators ran some 100 mills behind the pace of the 1943 assembly which received more than 700 proposed laws in the first 30 days. A flood of new measures were expected Friday. The biennial appropriation bill, incorporating many of Gates’ recommendations, will be sent through both houses late in the session under a suspension of rules, but Republican leaders hoped there would be few other rules suspensions for new legislation after the 30-day period ex-
(' pires.
Renewed interest in the juvenile delinquency problm was stir:ed by Marion county (Indianapolis) legislators who proposed steps against school truancy, to protect neglected children and to clamp down on night spots frequented by youngsters.

AT THE VONCASTLE Any time Claudette Colbert’s screen duties allow her to take an outside job, there’s a spot open for her as a welder. Claudette learned to weld during the filming of David O. Selznlck's all-star production, "Since You Went Away,” the usual drama of the home front at the Voncastle Theatre, through United Artists release. In the picture she fails to make the grade in a try-out as a welder. Instead, a shipyard executive hires her as a social activities
leader.
However, Mr. G. L. Revell, welding engineer with the Lincoln Electric Company of Los Angeles .insists it's all a bit illogical. Revell personally supervised the scenes in which Claudette tried her hand at welding, and he flatly states that she was thy most promising student welder he ever instructed. Starring with Claudette In the film are Jennifer Jones, Joseph Gotten, Shirley Temphs, Monty Woolley, Lionel Barrymore and Robert Walker.
