Commodores, Kirkland And Monmouth Win

COMMODORES WIN FOURTH STRAIGHT Catholic Hijrh Quintet Defeats St. John’s High, Os Delphos, 31-18 The Decatur Catholic With school (’oinmoilores uilih'tl another victory to their rapidly increasing; string last night, when they journeyed to Delphos. Ohio, and defeated the St John's Catholic high school teain of that city, 31-18. The St. John's eagers put up a good fight, but the harpshooting of "Mongo" Meyers star forward of the Commodores, brought about their downfall. This was the fotyth straight victory for the Commodores. The Commodores scored first when Meyers dropped in a field goal on the tip-off play. Delphos tied the score and Meyers connected again. The two teams battled on practically even terms throughout the first quarter, which ended with the Commodores leading, 6-4. Meyers broke loose in the second quarter and the rest period found Coach Center's men leading, 19-8. Captain Gengler, of the Delphos team, kept fighting and scored three field goals in the second half and the offense of the CommodoFM was checked, somewhat. The Delphos team will come to Decatur for a recurn game with the Commodores next Tuesday night. Inall probability, the Buckeyes will be coached to stop Meyers and a real battle may result. Meyers made nine field goals last night. In the preliminary game, the eighth grade team from the St. Joseph school of this city, tra.t defeated by the St. John’s high school second team. 10-9. The high school boys we:e much larger than the Decatur] boys, but the latter got started in the fourth quarter after being held to two points up until that time, and at the close of the game were out'playing their opponents. , Lineups and summary: Commodores (31) Delphos (18) Meyers F Imber F.

The final 1 score of the contest was 26 to 4. There were few thrills to the game, the winJ nys being masters of 'he situation throughout. The first half ended with Kirkland leading. 12 to 2. F. Arnold was the main cog in Kirkland's winning combination. He snagged seven field goals besides playing a strong defensive game. His I.rothet Luther counted four times from the field, and one front the free throw line, the two brothers siring 23 of Kirkland's 26 points. E-, zoy, center, scored .Monroe's only field goal.

Buckeyes aren’t listed among the best sellers in the nut market, but the Commodores seem to be fond of them. Three Ohio teams, the Catholic high school teams from Celina. Belle-_ vue and Delphos, have fallen before the Commodores within ti;r last weel . The I .ios team succumbed last night after a hard battie. 31-18. Coach Everhart’s Monroe team took another blow in the solar plexus last night, Kirkland winning, 26-4. Revenge will be all the sweeter when the pendulum swings back and Monroe's team starts hitting on all eight. All of the teams appear to tiave the number of Stahley, Geneva center. lately, since the big boy is unable to hit the basket, after showing much prom se in early games. He failed to score from the field lasi night, and Monmouth defeated Geneva, 26-16. Monmouth appears to be getting up steam, too.
