The Yellow Jackets have slid ’■ir enough. The game lo t a! Auburn Saturday : :;ht was a thriller, though, and there was little to choose between the two t teams. The Yellow Jackets excelli J at passing anil floor work, hut the Auburn snipers were more sin ce fill at the foul line. The Y< Pin. Jackets sank 12 field goals to lti made by Auburn, but scored only once from the free throw line out of six chances, while Auburn counted six points out of fourteen attempts. Columbia City comes to towi next Friday night and the Yellow Jackets ( are due for a win. In fart they shou'rl 1 win all remaining names on their schedule, eight in a'l. i I Catholic High tackles two foes next l week-end. The green clad warriors go to Horne Friday nigh! and journey to Fort Wavne on katuntu night to t play a return engagement with c. 11. S. llotli games will lie Ini..resting affairs with the ForU Wayne re ■ test holding the spotlight, due to Mr , intense rivalry between the tv. ; schools. What we rnn't understand i s whe went wrong with Coach Case’s I'lg'.it ing Five from Frankfort at Vinoenn s Saturday night. The score wasn" even close, the Alices winning l)y a twenty-point margin. T Just Courting, had an awful t'no * explaining liow North Manehepu r c• ■ ! seated his Wabash Thom Cats F ; - day niglit. 72-S. Here's how h:> f anclir.es the situation; "Those Wit- 1 l>asli players could no’ huidle C ball, couldn't pn s it to hi'st pdvruuaee and had what was called "to 1 luck on shots’* simply because they could not shoot. They played defensively. Docs the score show It Tlv y did not play the ball, except occasion ally. Hops the siore show it? The answer is affirmative in hnt.li cases. TP" players couldn't ova make foul goals." “Oil, but it was a hitter pill to see rfld rivalry so thoroughly avenged by Manchester, to see a score mount to 28 before Wabash scored " No wonder Wabash can't win pomes, ’they have Vice playing on their team. The team must be cheap, toe, since Mills is a regular. And the players play with their Knee instead of their hands. Sidelines, at Huntington, has accepted our suggestion and is calling Just Courting, "Just Snorting." Auburn invaded the bull pen and trimmed the K 11. H. 1 snipers Friday night, 26 to 22. That shows that Auburn is strong. / Leaders vs, Lagrange Legion hero
