Field Goals by ‘ Eagle Eye” Pete , Whitt's become of the fellow who| always yelled "too many cigarettes," when some tt;>m called time out? Marion funs must have thought the war wasn't over Saturday night when Anderson invaded the Grant county| seat, bombarded the basket and shot the M. H. S. quintet to pieces, 64-15.. The Anderson crew must have re- ( membered that mighty battle in the state tournament at Indianapolis > i ring when Marion almost threw , them out of the running. Nearly all of last year’s Marion team is in I. V. now, however. The Borne Witness didn't have anything to say yesterday about the tilt between the Berne A. C’s. and the Leaders here tomorrow night. SUU water runs deep. The tri-weekly of the southern metropolis must be saving up with the idea of proclaiming a victory after the battle is over. Tip Offs says he doesn't understand what the Witness means when reference is made to the sixth man on the Phi Delt team when the Berne aggregation played over there recently. The Witness should use plainer language. C. C. H. S. is expecting a hard battle with Center’s Catholic high boys tonight and we think they are right. It may be a little harder than they expect, too. The Buffton Phi Delts play the Hartford City Athletics on the latter’s floor tonight. Looks like a good

game. Out of Bounds says that the Warren Rexalls were so disheartened as-1 ter losing two games to the Phi Delts that they disbanded and cancelled all games scheduled. Why wouldn't they be disheartened? We wish the Wabash Times-Star j would employ a columnist to take] Leady's place in the Wabash-Hunting-ton Mutual Admiration Society. Ross Hurd s stuff is beginning to get dry] since- Leady left Wabash. D. H. S. at Fairmount, Friday night. We hope the Yellow Jackets] stay on top of the “Fair —Mount” and i don't slide over the edge to become submerged under an avalanche of goals. o The PORTER STUDIO wishes you a Merry Xmas. No more work promised for Xmas delivery. Again we thank you. o Ex-Service Men Oppose Appointment Os Klansman (United Press Service) St. Louis, Dec. 18 —Ex-service men today opposed the appointment of Ku Klux Klansmen to the reserve service of the United States army. Resolutions were adopted last night by the executive committee of the St. Louis American Legion posts demanding Charles D. McGehee, former Methodist pastor here and now national lecturer for the Klan, resign the appointment to a first lieutenancy in the officers reserve corps, which he entered last week. Copies of the resolution were sent to Secretary of War Weeks and to the Military Order of the World War and the
