psi BY MARK M UPP W V—L ........ -—-J One more defeat should bo credited to the Monroe quintet | n tlljl al . |n() . ( ng of the Adams countv team- i„ the standing published yXia ■ •Monroe was credited with three vi torles and six defeats l|f . r Buffton Saturday night, when tie Tiger reset ves won 26 1« wu n< t i, eluded. This makes Monroe's per’ centage .300, but does not change the standing of tliH trains. 'Mark M. Upp, conductor of the Column Field Goals at b, catur. seems to bo a little diappointed over the fact that failed to razz him for that drubblug administered to the V.-llovv Jackets by the Berne five. Well Mark, old fellow, we were Jnst a little too Jubilant over that victory turned in Saturday night by the Tigers to pay much attention to what did happen to the Yellow Jackets- Their defeat wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, you know, so you'll have to forgive us for the oversight this time. Just the same, we would like to see the Yellow Jackets stir up a little excitement Wednesday night by defeating Angola.’’—Out of Bounds, Bluffton Banner. Thanks, Outta, we hope thev don't lisappoint you. Our copy of the Vincennes Sun was ost in the flood of Christmas cards oday so we can’t quote any from Casual Comment.’' Feavens sakes. Yellow Jackets. Rip )ffs is giving us the horse laugh. All 'eeause we pleaded with you to lick he Tigers. We don't know whether e aims to insult us or you. Let's '.ee, what is the old saying. "He who aughs last laughs best;’ isn't that t? Anyway, here is what Rippy has to say: “‘Lick Bluffton, gang, and all these early season defeats will be forgotten—Mark M. Upp, in the Decatur Democrat. Did anything ever work on your sense of humor like this crack from Mark M? Personally, the whole sports department of the paper enjoyed a regular roar when we read the above. Knowing how the Yellow Jackets have been tramped on mercilessly by many teams already this season, how can Mark M. expect that warped crew over there to win when the Tigers play at Decatur on Dec. 29. Say. Mark M., did you notice that the Tigers gave the Warren high school a .nice defeat here Saturday evening—and you know what a team Warren has. Yea, we’re beginning to show real class and our coach is now resting easy. As to Decatur’s chances of trimming Bluffton—har, har!” Today's question and answer: “Q — When does a substitute become a r -nlayer? A—When he has reported to * the scorers and been recognized by the referee. _o——The Daily Democrat—Your Paper— I STOP CATARRH!
