CAPACITY CROWD I II) WITNESS CAME I I Great Interest ■ ‘ mantling-room-only sign will be I hung out at the Decatur high school I gym long before the Decatur-Kendall-I V ille basketba’ I game is scheduled to I etart Friday night and indications are I that many fans will be unable to get I lns ide the gym, according to reports I earning from the high school authori- | ties today. AH seats on both sides of I the floor, with the exception of those 9 in the north balcony, and 100 set aside I t or Kendallville fans, have been reI served already and scores of calls for I seats have been received since the I supply was exhausted. ■ Walter Kriek. principal of the high I school, announced today that Kendallville has sent word that there will not be more than 50 or 75 fans from that city accompany the te.uft here, so Mr* Krick said between 25 and 50 of the tickets held back for the visitors will be sold to local fans. Persons wanting tickets are urged to see Mr. Krick at once. Two high class officials have been secured to handle the game Friday night. Hugh Vandlvter, of Marion, who is rated as one of the bes: referees in the state and who handled the whistle in two gams here already this season, will referee the game Friday night. “Tubby" Moffett, former DePauw star who coached the Brazil high school team last year and who is coaching at Central high school in'Lima. Ohio this I year, will be the umpire. | There will be no preliminary game I and the big game will not .start until I 9 o'clock, on account of the revival I meetings in progress in the city. The I doors will open at 8:15 o’clock. I Kendallville comes to Decatur with I a long string of victories and no deI feats. The team is coached By John I Swaim, who coached the Rushvill high I school team for the last few years. I test week-end the upstaters defeated I Auburn, at Auburn 42-30 and beat I Bluffton, at Kendallville, 35-2 G. Billy I Bell. Yellow Jacket forward, who has I been out of school on account of the I mutnjs for more than a week will not be able to play Friday, it was said today. Reynolds and Bebout likely will start the game at forward. Coach Ct.rtis is sending the locals through strenguous workouts this week in prepara- ! Hob for ?. stubborn battle Friday night. 0 11ELD GOALS C S J X /J By MarkM. Upp *1 If this snow, continues much longer, there will be a lot more stalling in connection with basketball games next week-end. The Frankfort-Logansport game at Frankfort, Saturday night, took, the prize for stalling last week-end. The Logansport team became stalled In the snow enroute to Frankfort’and it was 10:45 p. m. when the gams Started. After the game started, Frankfort began to stall with the ball “nd each time they got hold of the sphere they made the Logansport crew come down the floor and force ’he fight. The first half ended with xigunsport leading, 7-6. At t|he start the second half, Logansport got e ball on the tip and, started a 1 • e more stalling. The Loganberries held the trail for five and oncminutes afid then one of them °° to ° Illa ny steps and Frankfort 8° the ball out of bounds. Frank<>r immediately went into their own anc j nine snn ,° n6 ’ llalt minutes, without Logunit to make them Pais Vlth aboUt five minutes left to the scor e still 7-6, Frankfort Da I. t 0 P ' ay ball and toe Casemen e d the ball for two minutes, withfense Pene Th Mng D th6 UgaMr " t de ’ dmnn , . “ Pearc y got loose and Thig Pf " a tield goal tor Frankfort, gave Frankfort the. lead and c’ ' '' 1 • • ***’■

both teams ta'gan fighting hard. Downing, Frankfort, forward, took the iball off the teigansport back board, i went down the floor und dropped in 1 a field goal and Frankfort was lead--1 Ing 10-7, with less than one minute left to play. On the tip off, Frankfort got the ball and held possession ' of It until the timer’s gun put an end to this fmusual game. An analysis of the game shows ’ that neither coach made a subI ttitution, no timeout was taken, Logansport had three free throws and made one, Frankfort had four free throws and made four, ■two personal tools were called ' on Logansport and two on Frank- ’ fort. f As a result of the stalling tactics p employed by Frankfort, Coach Wells, ’ of Ixrgansport, has cancelled the game ’ scheduled to bo played by the two ’ teams in Logansport later in the seasen. He said he was fearful of what thf’ fans might do when the two ’ teams met again. It was the first de- ‘ feat ct the season for Logansport. I ’ There is nwrule in the rule book • to prohibit a team, from stalling and ? the Frankfort coach was entirely 1 within his rights in directing his A team to hold the ball, but such prac- ’ tices as this is what hurts the game. What do you suppose those hundreds 1 of fans thought about while one team was holding the ball for ten minutes > and the other team lined up at the ' other end of the floor, motionless? ? Certainly,Hhey couldn’t have been in • the best of spirit. They had enough ■ time to think up all kinds of mean r epitaphs for the players and coaches. 1 Coach Case, of Frankfort, is a smart t coach and he wanted his team to beat s Logansport, the team that had been trodding rough shod over all opposi- ■ tian. He decided that, the stalling 1 game was the only solution to his 1 problem and he used it. Frankfort ? won the game, but we doubt seriously if many fans over the state will i shower much praise on Coach Case - and his players. i —— . > Principal Krick tells us there is £ complete sell-out for the t Decatur-Kendallville game here t ( Friday night. The game won’t start until 9 o’clock, in order not » to interfere with the revival a meetings in the city. I 1 No Real Test 1 “The Decatur Yellow Jackets evi . dchtly were more weary of waiting . for the Huntington Vikings to shov up Saturday night than the Vikings were of taking that long ride through the snow. The game was played in ■ the late hours of tho- night with Decatur finally winning by two points. According to all dou?, Decatur shoal*’ have won by at least 10 points. At that!, if Huntington had made^their free throws, the score would hav* been in favor of the Vjkings. A game played at that hour, is no real test for either team, is our opinion."—Out of Bounds, Bluffton Banner. The trip to Fostoria, Ohio, will be the first long ride the Catholic high t Commodores have had this season. | Most of their games have been played Jon the local figdr. Indications are that Coach Confer will have to take his boys aboard the rattlers as there is too much snow- between here and Fostoria to' make motoring the mosi enjoyable mode of travel. r What’s become of all our good contributors? Our address is still h the same and the postman still stops at our door. " Today’s the day for Cash Keller, of I Huntington, to pick his weekly (or weakly) Big Ten.

Indiana Drops Purple In Big Ten Title Race Evanstun, 111., Jan. 18.—(United Press) —Indiana's fast breaking, accurate passing offensive game was more than Northwestern could handle last night and the Purple Wildcats lost a fast game to the Crimson five, 36-24. The Wildcats put up a desperate fight from the start but Indiana's offensive drive slashed through their defense for many short shots and the Hoosiers maintained a lead almost from the first. Indiana scored first on a free throw and Northwestern took the lead on a field goal. Indiana countered with their first fielder and after playing most of the first half on even terms, pulled away to a 16-12 lead at the half. o Wisconsin Beats Chicago Chicago, Jan.

Bobbed Hair Hurts Women’s Appearance Says Portrait Painter London (United Press) —"The shin?!e will not last with women; it isn't beautiful or exciting enough.” Thus Sir William Orpen. famous >oi Tait painter, president of the Inernational Society of Sculptors, ’’ainters and Gravers, views tills fem'nine style of haircut. In fact, he opposed lobbed hair in other styles as well. "After six years experience of it, n which to arrive at a mature judgment, my conclusion is that women >ught never to have cut their hair,” he said. "Their heads are too badly shaped and their faces are too large. Bobbing was bad enough, shingling is vorse, and as for an Eton crop—l 'eel uncomfortable when 1 have o sit next to it in a theatre. "When I have to paint a crop my ■oul revolts. Nr> shingled -ould hope to be a successful modern Circe or Helen of Troy. It can’t last. The modern shingled \woman will never inspire, a type in Art comparable to the Ancient Greek type, for instance.” Sir William admitted that there must have been much the same outcry when men first started shaving tnd cutting their hair short. "But,” he added, “it wasn’t nearly ?o reasonable. Men have better shaped heads than women. Ninety-nine women out of a hundred have straight, backs to their heads —German backs. And their faces are too big for the dze of their heads, too. That’s whyheir ha|ir is so important. The Greek knot at the back balances the face. The width of hair at the side makes it seem smaller and daintier. Hair pulled down on the forehead has the same effect. Cut off her hair, or take it away from her face and the average moderately good-looking wontan is a sight. “If women do go on cuttinff off their hair, soon they’ll stop growing any to cut. When I say soon, I mean in about another 100 years or so. It’s the law of nature.” Tree Seeds Sent Abroad For The Battlefields « —— Washington, (United Press) —In advance of the American Legion meeting in Paris fn September several hunred pounds of American tree seed have been sent to the allied nations as messages of good will.
