The Fourth Down By • Willie Punt Coach Howard turned his Yellow Jackets loose over at Logansport Saturday and they completely routed the Red Devils. 20-0. As a result Decatur is still tied with Peru for the lead in the Conference. Peru defeated Huntington, 25-14. but Huntington says that Peru had the breaks and the writeup of the game bears out the statement. Evidently there wasn't much difference in the strength of the two teams. The Yellow Jackets meet their old rival, Richmond, at Richmond next Saturday. We figure that it is about time for the worm to turn. Mr. A. Leadpeneilc, of Wabash, in Saturday's Times-Star said: “We predict Peru to win from Huntington and Logansport from Decatur consequently Decatur will be down towards the bottom of the list. Willie says that there has been a jinx on

the Yellow Jackets for the past few games away from home, but it is gone now.” Aw, you tell him, I haven't the heart. And listen to what nice things Ross Hurd, at Huntington. said in his Sport Hot Shots Sunday morning: “All we hope Is that Decatur gives Peru the trouncing of its life and wins the conference title. Both teams have shown tho Huntington team that they are clean sports, but Huntington has thought the Peru victory yesterday was unwarranted." Thank yon. Ross. As we predicted, Portland was unable to stop Muncie Central Saturday, losing 27-0. Muncie is now clamoring for a post-season game with Gary or some other team for the championship of the state. How about a game with Manual of India napolls, Muncie? The one remaining scalp that we want the Yellow Jackets to get this fall, above all others, is that of Peru Besides the game being a title match in the conference, there will be r personal interest in the contest with us. Logansport scored on Huntingtor and Peru, while the Yellow Jacket held them scoreless. Huntington beat the Red. Devil 19-6 and the Pert Tigers clawed them 20-12. The Yel low Jackets’ score looks pretty good eh? Purdue played a nice game agains Chicago Saturday, and lead at the end of the first half. 6-0. but lost 20-6. True to prediction, Notre Dam had easy pickin’ in the Georgia Ted squad. But, Tech realized one ambi tion —to score against the Micks. Tn our list of fifteen prediction Saturday, we had 12 correct, misse< one, and two were tie games. Little I Centre spilled our dope. — Wabash, 85; Bluffton, 0.
