I HH999H99M9H99HR9i Field Goals Four victories out of five games played lust night isn't so bad. Poor Out of Rounds. Huntington beat his pets lust night. 30 to 16. It | must be tough to get a little taste of victory and then have some naughty boys come along and blast your fond hopes. And then they played their substitutes part of the time. too. We don’t like to say we told you so. but—Butler. 29; Wabash. 21. Are those Fort Wayne high schools trying to decide which is the worst or which the better? Recently South Side defeated Central, playing two overtime periods. Last night Central won from South Side, 17-16, after playing two overtime periods. • ■ The D. 'H. S. players missed enough shots last night to win six games. It's too bad that there can't be a bigger difference in the score when a team outclasses its opponents as much as the locals did Portland last night. Anyhow, we WON. D. H. S. has a whirlwind defense which ought to make the best of them worry a little. Bud White played anothed good game last night end Jack Teeple was the star of the game. Vincennes is still going big. The Alices won from Bloomington last night, score 44 to 27. Who'll be the next to stop 'em. The St. Joe eagers put up a good defense against Van Buren last night but they showed a weakness in advancing the ball down the floor. They were unable to penetrate the visitors’ five-man defense very’ often and when they did they couldn't make their shots count. Tipton gave Anderson a big scare last night, holding Stagg's men to a two point win. score 28 to 26. , And how- about that South BendEmerson of Gary game? Emerson won 20 to 19 after one overtime period. With their star center in the hospital. Frankfort high eagers came through with a 42 to 22 win over Jeff of Lafayette last night. This makes up for the wallop Jeff gave the Frankfort crew at Lafayette recently. We're pickin’ Indiana to lick Minnesota and Purdue to down Illinois tonight. Purdue should have a harder fight than the Crimson. Hey, Out of Bounds, our substitutes played part of the last half against Portland last night. In Hirons, Portland has a mighty good basketball player. The lanky boy caged five baskets from the field last night and most of them were from long range. The entire team is a clean bunch of players. Come again Portland. — • Moses Augshurger of Hartford township was a business visitor at this office this morning.
