IIIWONTON, May 24-—(C.P.)- With the 1933-34 Dominion cham- pionship safely tucked away, Ed- monton Commercial Grads today were laying plans for future eon- quests to break their record of 7B consecutive victories.

An ever-changing personnel has not interfered with the long string

~ of wins to which J. Percy Page has been able to coach his queens of the basketball world. Besides adding the ‘ women's basketball championship in the recent Dominion series, the

Grads still hold the world title.

Including the four games the

Grads played in the semi-final and ‘Dominion final, they now boast a record of 355 wins out of 363 games played. ‘their string of '78 consecu- tive wins was terminated in 1930 when they dropped one game to Taylor-Trunks of Chicago. The Grads took their second game with the Chicago girls and won the ser- ies.

In their lost 112 games, the Grads have won 111. Since their defeat by Chicago, they have won 33 games straight, including the 1933-34 Do- minion championship series, and are now looking for another 46 wins to break their record oi’ consecutive victories.

Victory over the Toronto Ladies in the recent Dominion series zigain demonstrated the guidance of Percy

Page, coach of the Grads in the 16 years of the club's existence during ' which the girl hoop siars have est- ablished a record unique in sport ' annals of the world. The club has held the Alberta title on l7 occa- sions, the Dominion championship ' “since 1922 and the international title .eincc 1923. They won the official

again in 192B, o title which the cluh still holds.

second highest scorer with ‘l1 and

' MacBurney was third with 66 points. The other five, four of them play-

ing their first Wm" in the Perm-W-

‘ ent ranks of the Grads, contributed to the victories although Edith Stone was used so seldom she did " not break into the scoring columns. Edith‘s twin sister, Helen, who broke into overnight fame by outscorlng

' hcr team-mates in the semi-final ’ series, finished the four games with a total of 62 points. Like her sister. Helen is serving her first year in the regular lineup. Doris Neale, e, stalwart of the de- fence, counted 2'1 points while the two newcomers with the Stone sis- ters showed their value. Both Ev-

able to barge through defence tac- tics and Coulson counted 10 points and Innes four.

Vancouver Province, defeated by Grads in the semi-final, were able to count more points than the To- ronto Ladies chalked up in the final. Betty Passcrinl, with a total of 38 points in the tum-game series, led her team-mates to count an even 100 points while the Grads chalked up 16B. Mrs. Kay Annan counted 34 points during the semi-final ser- ies.

The Toronto girls were outscored 151-56 in the two games which Grads won to take the Dominion title in, a series billed as two out o! three. Nlarjor Dawes did the heavi- est scoring for the Toronto outfit, counting nine points 1n the first and l0 in the second for a total of 19. Charlotte Bruening, who made her first train trip when the team went to Windsor and won the Ontario title, placed second with 10 points.

‘Although the scores were one-sid- ed, they were still a long way off from the record defeat the Grads have imposed on any team. Over in Paris in 192B, the Edmonton out- fit won a victory by a score of 109- 20 to set a’ record. They went one better just about two years ago when they trimmed Toronto All-Stars 123-19. outscoring their oponents by 104 points.

Seek Continent 0n Ocean Bottom

(Canadian Pressl

LONDON. May Z-i-British scien- tists are to explore the bottom of the Indian Ocean, four miles be- lo\v the sin-lice, in a search for traces of the lost continent of “Lemurla.”

An expedition under Captain J. M. Mackenzie, who captained the Discovery of Sir Douglas Mawson's last voyage in the Antarctic, will leave London in August to begin the search. They will be nine months at sea (between Africa and India) in n tiny research craft of only 105 tons. The craft is now being fitted at Alexandria with latest inventions for under-sea ex- ploration.

Steel bottles, which close auto- inatlcaliy at n certain depth, will be let down to take specimens of the sen life and record temper- atures. Lead lines will be dropped four miles down to take samples of the ocean floor.

In this way the expedition hopes to discover traces of the continent of “Lemuriaﬂ which is supposed to have stretched from Madagascar to Sumatra and India in pre-historic times. Another object is to discover whether there are mountain ranges and ridges under the sea such as the Meteor expedition found in the Atlantic. -

The scientific leader of the ex- pedition will be Colonel Seymour Sewcll, D. Se, director of the Zoo- logical Survey of India.

Scientst". at the University of Leeds, England, have discovered that mustard l gas, like that used during the World war, rendered rats and mice immune to cancer.

Shaw Charged With Telling a Lie

qn-i

(Canadian Press) WASHINGTON, May 24-George Bernard Shaw, who enjoys telling reporters “I'm a newspaperman myself," is taxed by Dean Carl Ackerman of the Columbia Uni- versity School of Journalism, with uttering a “deliberate lie” regard- ing the press during his recent vis-

gages, the compilation shows changed current rates ranging from eixtoeightpercentinullprov- inoes except Quebec, where slightly lower rates were reported. "In gen- eral," the report declares, "it may be concluded in the cases of figures supplied that mortgage rites have declined throughout the Dominion in recent years on both new mort- gages and renewals.

DECLINE 1N RATES One large qompany furnished rec- ' ords showing that the average rate on new rural and urban mortgages for the Dominion declined from 8.35 percent in 1921 to 6.84 per cent in 1931. 0n renewals the rum rel] from 8.17 percent in 1921 to 6.90 per cent in 1931.

“Nevertheless these conclusions should only be taken as tentative,” the report commentsin referring to mortgage interest rates, “because they are based on returns from corporate leaders only. No data, are available yet from private leaders or from mortgagors themselves. Statistical enquiries should be is! stltuted to secure information from these courses to round out the in- formation from the companies."
