Berne Athletics Defeat Muncie Meadow Golds The Berne Athletics defeated the Muncie Meadow Gold team in a fast basketball game in the Berne Com munity auditorium Saturday night by a score of 24 to 21. The Berne team was greatly strengthened for the game by Bob Juday, of Fort Wayne, who scored several field goals during the contest. This was the second game of the season for Berne, they having lost their opener to the Decatur Leaders a week ago by the score of 28-16. l Portland Our Boys Lost To Corby Hall Team, 13-0 Several Decatur people witnessed the foot!,'all game at Portland Sunday afternoon, between the Portland Our Boys and the Corby Hall team from Notre Dame university. The Notre Dame team won the game by a score of 13-0. A large crowd attended the I game and the contest was one of the I best seen in this section of the state for sdmetime.

The Fourth Down By Willie Pont Peru is next. The Tigers have suffered two severe defeats the last two week-ends and likely will be fighting tnad Saturday. On the other hands, the Yellow Jackets sharpened up their stingers Saturday and will be fighting Saturday, too. Don Farr proved to be the marathon runner in Saturday’s game. Don got away for runs of 10, 30 and 35 yards In the fourth quarter. Decatur was offsides when he made the 35-yard run, however, and the ball was called back. Battershell, Hicksville right end, is about the biggest little fellow we have seen iu football togs recently. He showed about the most stuff of anyone on the field Saturday. It looks like Coach Howard has made a good move in pulling Charley Lammiman out of the line and making a halfback out of him. He made several nice gains Saturday and when he learns to run low when hitting the line he will be a dangerous man. Milt Swearinger received his usual bump on the nose Saturday. Milt’s smeller bled during most of the first quarter. Brumley and Rex both did some, good defensive work Saturday, but both were caught holding and the locals were penalized. Frisinger’s block of Hicksville’s punt late in the second quarter was a pretty bit of work. He had to jump high into the air to get the ball. Bluffton's record for the year is six games played; six games lost; 349 points scored against them, an average of 58 points a game; and NO POINTS scored by Bluffton. Portland won Saturday 50-0. Tip Offs in the News says that the Bluffton players and fans are going to forget the record right away. We don't blame them, for trying to forget it. Tip Offs also said Saturday that the Yellow Jackets were not so over-con-fident of winning from Hicksville Saturday and that Decatur didn’t go so strong this year. Well, Tippy, we beat Hicksville, we have won four out of six games played and have a good chance of winning the last two. And even Logansport won a game. The Loganberries beat Mishawaka, 13-7, Saturday. i We missed three predictions, Saturday. But what dopster wouldn’t ‘ have missed the Notre Dame-Nebras-ka and Princeton-Harvard games? Our other miss was the DePauw-Butler game. The Purdue Ejtponent, daily ptibll"ation at Purdue, refused to write up the Ohio State-Purdue game which I was played in Ijafayette Saturday and I was won by Ohio State, 32-0. The paper left a blank space where th" game usually is written up. No i doubt the Purdue team did not show all the stuff as is capable of show- . ing, but. in our opinion the Exponent , made a worse showing than the team , The game should have been written , up and if the case merited it. the playing of the team should have been , criticized through the editorial col unin which by the way was also left blank. e — Purdue Exponent Rebukes University Football Team r" * Lafayette, Nov. 12—The Purdue Exponent, the daily publication of Purdue University, rebuked the Purdue football team for what editors of the paper termed poor playing against Ohio State here Saturday afternoon, by leaving blank the space on page one, usually devoted to a report of Purdue football games, and also leaving blank a space in the editorial column given over on Sunday morning to editorial comment on the game of the previous day. The game in Question was won by Ohio State by a score of 32 to 0. It is said that those in'charge of the university paper felt that the members of the Purdue eleven had not plhyed the brand of ball of ‘which they were capable against the Ohio team, and that the game was handled as it was, or rather wasn't, in an effort to get the team to make a better showing in the two games remaining upon tho Purdue schedule, the first with Northwestern, the home-coming contest, next Saturday and Hie second one with Indiana, at Bloomington, on November 24.
