The Yellow Jackets turned in a nice evening’s work Saturday night at Ossian. They ran signals and hit the basket in great style. Many (times they scored on the tip off play after a couple or snappy passes. The Journal-Gazette had a hard time swallowing the defeat handed C. C. 11. S. by the Decatur Catholics Saturday night- The writer who covered the game evidently thought it was a crime because the Decatur ' | layers outweighed the home team. ( , Gangway! open the ga‘e for Wabash Wabash could have beat North Manchester by such playing as was shown last night and there's no doubt about it! Vabash is out to win, we have a team and a real one. Let's make it a question whether North Manchester will be victor in this ;'. ection in the tournament.
