The TempestAll the fighting isn’t being done inChina. Thanks to the Intra-muraldepartment, those of you who wantto see absolutely on-the-level, scrap¬py, enthusiastic, amateurish sportdesignated as fraternity basketballshould make a point of spending anevening up at Bartlett gym.Prom now on, for the next threemonths, the boys who prowl aroundthe campus in the daytime disguisedas scholars and gentlemen w<ll be dis¬covered almost any evening tryingto forget what they were in the day¬time. Here you will discover, if youreye can take in three games at onetime, ghosts of ‘Stretch’ Murphy ca¬vorting around, only the imitationssome of the boys put on are rather.sad.Some of the youths is FraternityRow take their basketball quite seri¬ously, which is perfectly all right,while some of the players have agood time, poke one another play¬fully, and not so playfully, either,and leave it go at that, which is al¬right too.This short floor proposition isamusing, especially when ten menbecome possessed of a single idea,namely, to grab hold of the well-known basketball and plunk it in, ifyou will. Fundamentally, the idea isthe saitie as prevails in the Big Tencompetition, only up at Bartlett, theboys are a trifled cramped for room,and consequently the Murphys, theGists, the Harmesons, and the Fishes!simply don’t shine at all.Just the same, it’ a fine show, es¬pecially when you get in scot-free,and can occupy the choice seats in thehouse. In fact we want to enumerateat this point the desirability of pa¬tronizing these evening entertain¬ments. Not only can you have thedollar fifty seats, but you can lay allover them, mskoe, cuss, yell, sleep... .well, what more do you want fornothing?We hear a great deal now and thenabout feminine beauty, particularlyafter the fashion Ziegfeld and GeorgeWhite have glorified it. We don’twant too many folks to know it, butthe display of masculine pulchritudeprovided by some of the boys wholook like harmless scholars in the daytime would be enough to cause awholesale exodus of the New Yorkmusical comedy producers. VARSITY TRIMSFRESHMEN-ALUMNIBY WIDE MARGIN Hard Games onLast Night’s 1-MCage ScheduleWater Polo Team AlsoTurns InWinThe Varsity swimming team tookthe measure of both the Alumni andthe Freshmen last Friday evening bythe score of 48-22. Excellent timeswere made but no records were shat¬tered. The Varsity water polo teamdemonstrated its proficiency by calm¬ly trouncing the mixed combinationthat opposed them 14-4.The varsity relay team made goodtime in defeating the grads in the160 yard relay. Oker, Stephenson,Hough and Moore swam for the vic¬tors against Blinls, Prothero, Ritten-hoqse, and Merriam. Spence andGetzov led Faris to the tape for afew more points for the varsity inthe breast stroke. Getzov is becom¬ing more proficient, and the race be¬tween the red head and CaptainSpence was thrilling.In the forty yard dash Oker camein first with Moore close behind.Third place went to Merriam. Szoldland McMillan garnered points for thej varsity by taking first and secondj respectively in the 440 yard swim.Stephensen took first in the 160 yardbackstroke, while second place wentto Steyns. Hough won the hundredyard swim for the varsity, with Siv-erstein second, and Rittenhousethird. The Frosh-Alumni took firstand second in fancy diving, but thirdplace went to Getzov who has latelybeen trying his hand at diving. Hisfirst appearance in competition prov¬ed that he will be a valuable man infilling the gap left by graduation.The varsity, also came through totake the three hundred yard relayrace.The varsity polo team showed realform against the “grrads” and shoulddo well in intercollegiate compe¬tition. Last night’s games of the Intra¬mural Basketball Tournament dem¬onstrated some real fighting fives,but showed lack of scorers on anyof the teams. In all three games thecagers scraped to the finish and show¬ed real spirit.The game between the Ponies andBlake Hall was the feature of theevening. The two squads battledhard, and the tilt ended wifh thePonies leading 10 to 9. The ChicagoTheological Seminary played a nicegame against the Medics, but lostby a 20 to 19 score. The other C.T. S. team was slaughtered by theSnell Hall cagers, although they putup an excellent opposition. The finalscore was 21 to 2.Snell Hall 21; C. T. S. 2The game proved rather slow. TheC. T. S. men failed to make a bas¬ket. Snell fought hard and wereable to accumulate 21 points.Ponies 10; Blake 9The Ponies won their way to ahard fought victory over Blake. The10 to 9 score was made to the ac¬companiment of numerous fouls byboth sides. It was by far the bestall-around game of the evening.Medics 20; C. T. S. 19The Medics managed to pull aheadof the C. T. S. team, and to finishup on the long end of a 20 to 19score.

Inmany parts of the country railway taxes form theprincipal support of local governments and make pos¬sible goo<l schools, hard roads and many other publicimprovements which might otherwise be practicallyunobtainable.Although railway taxes have increased nearly 3(X)l)er cent since 1911 and at pre.sent are approximatelyequal to railway dividends, the railroads have not takenthe lead in complaining alxnit tax burdens, becausethey realize that taxes have increased largely in otherlines of business also. The railroads do claim, how¬ever, that it is inconsistent to exi)ect reductions in rail¬way rates while taxes and other expenses continuehigh. They point out further that if reductions inrates are enforced without acconij^anying reductionsin taxes and other expenses, the only alternatives are.bankruptcy for many railroads or a deterioration inthe quality of railway service.The railroads, in common with other businesses,must pay their taxes out of their current receipts.This means that every patron who buys a ticket orpays a freight hill is helping to pay railway taxes.Since taxes represent the expense of government,therefore, one of the sound ways to reduce railwayrates is to reduce governmental expenses and, as aresult, railway taxes.Not all railway taxes are strictly comparable withtaxes in other lines of business. Railroads w^hichreceived grants of land from the government in pioneerdays sometimes had to enter into unusual tax arrange¬ments in return. Besides providing transjxirtation re¬quired by the government at reduced rates, the IllinoisCentral System, for example, has to pay into the treas¬ury of Illinois in perpetuity, in lieu of other taxes, 7per cent of the gross earnings of its 705 1-2 miles ofcharter lines. This charter tax is now in excess ofwhat ordinary taxes would be, and the railroad is, ineffect, paying for the original land grant at high prices,with interest besides.Constructive criticism and suggestions areinvited.L.
