The Fourth Down By Willie Punt Step up fans and meet Kenny Pass, author of a new football column entitled, “Pigskin Thumps." appearing in the Portland Daily Sun and Dally Republican. Kenny Pass? Well rather. Listen to this: "Decatur failed to celebrate a victory over the Pan thers in the grid game, and even lost out in the 'VICTORY' dance. But Decatur has a fine team and are real sports.” Now if those Bluffton columnists would come to lite we might be able to organize a Columnists' Club in this neck of the woods. We would suggest Sidelines of Huntington, for president, owing to his ability to secure order, as demonstrated in the manner in which he calls down Sport Comment, of Wabash. Sport Comment appears to like to write mighty well, judging from the length of his column every day. so we would suggest him for secretary. Now don’t all of you rush. Since we suggested this club, we will retain the priviledge of being treasurer. The Yellow Jackets went through I a scrimmage with Catholic high on Ahr's Field yesterday evening. They have lots of work to do before they | get into good condition for the Huntington game. On the other hand, the! Catholic high boy s appear to be rounding into shape to hand C. C. H j 43. a trimming at Fort Wayne a week I from Saturday. • In a story in the Huntington Press | yesterday it was explained that the I Decatur high school players received their names of Yellow Jackets from! the fact that they wear bright colored yellow jersies and because they j are noted for their fight. Whoever' wrote that story "knows his berries." |

At the end of his column yesterday.' Sideline, said: "We haven't the time 1 to argue with you today. Sport Com ' ment. Sorry.” — Evidently Sport wasn't quite so busy yesterday, though, as he found time to hurl a few caustic remarks at his neighbor. Kenny Pass says: "If Portland had. shifted into 'high' at the Decatur game, the Yellow Jackets would not have been out of the daze yet. No, kid." It was mighty considerate of the Panther crew to keep within the i speed limits while here. ! 1
