An ad appearing io the Bluffton papers yesterday, advertising th.Bluffton Phi Delt-Kokomo Phi Delt game for next Wednesday evening, says that the Kokomo team has defeated such teems as the Muncie Merchants, Decatur Leaders and others. The Leaders haven’t played b'okomo yet, but they will play them here Tuesday night, and It can’t he said after that game that Kokomo defeated the Leaders, either.
