i. — The Fourth Down I ' By Willie Punt Two more days until the journey to Ixigansport, the city of bridges. Can't you just picture the Yellow Jackets stinging the Red Devils? We are predicting Wabash to win its second game next Saturday. The Hillclimbers play Bluffton. Bluffton has played three games this year and lost by the scores of 56-0, 48-0 and 40-0. Mr. Leadpencil has been telling us about the hard schedule -his team has this year. We don’t see how Leady can celebrate much if Wabash does win this game, after kidding Huntington for playing 'easy” teams. Our friend Leady, at least we thought he was our friend, comes ( forth with the information that he is for Logansport In the game with us next Saturday. He says, "Wo don’t wish you any bad luck, but we are for Logansport. We may tell you why <ome time.” Really, we don’t see low we can beat Logansport without ■ Leady’s support. The Yellow Jackets had their stingers out yesterday evening and .urned the tables on the Catholic high boys in scrimmage, winning by i score of 20-6. The Yellow Jackets ire having difficulty in mastering a ew new plays, but they are getting ■hem in fair shape. If they can’t deiend on them in Saturday’s game, •hey have several mighty good old Jays to fall back on. Huntngtan plays Peru Saturday. Smarting under two straight defeats.
