A total of 37 perW al fouls were called by the referee jmjtij the melee, which eventually developed into a comedy. The Decatur high school girls and the Decatur eighth grade team met defeat in their games with the Garun teams. The Garrett eighth grades opened the evening with a 42-13 *tory over Coach Thomas’ Central ithool five. The first half ended 18-2. Garrett eighth grade team is one d the best in this part of the state. The D. H. S. girls put up a great pne against the strong Garrett team I® lost in a rough game 30-18. Unlike the referee in the Yellow Jackets’ game, the official in the girls’ game let many fouls get by and the pne became very rough. The Garrett girls were leading at the end of the half, 15-7. The excellent goal shooting of Miss Foley, Garrett forvt'd. spelled defeat for Miss StephDecatur girls. Miss Foley scored ten field goals and three free 1 taws. Miss Hower scored four field goals and two free throw’s and Miss Brickley scored three field goals nd two free throws for Decatur.

referee decided that the shower bath was probably unoccupied by that time so he sent Bebout in for his turn. “Bl ly” Hell, who had been taking a little snooze on the bench, came into the game to do his bit. Chest Reynolds had escaped the referee’s attention, but the latter didn't want, to be partial, so he called a foul on Chet, and someone scored a point for Garrett. The whistle then sounded taps <■» Yarde, Garrett guard, wh4 was ••Wil on his way to the showers while Hill shot the free throw. There were seven minutes left to play and the supply of substitutes on both teams was rapidly dwindling. Garrett got a couple of field goals and Krick tossed in a free throw. Bell made good on a pretty shot from the field and Krick ended the scoring with another free throw. Doc Somers replaced Reynolds shortly before the game ended, Gflach Curtis deciding that the referee wasn’t going to put Chet out. The timers’ gun cracked with the Yellow Jackets leading, 43-27, and the rest of the boys went to get their showers, but most of the warm water had already been used up.

FIELD ■*? GOALS i » zXA Mark M. Never before have we ever seen off elating in a basketball game as close at the work of Chambers, of Fo.'t Wliyn<>. who handled the Decatut Garrett game at Garrett, Saturday uijht. Six players were put out of th-- game on personal fouls a#d p the referee called a total of 37 personal fouls. Anyone who didn't see the Rame, would naturally imagine that the two teams were trying to play football instead of the caging game, bn; it was quitd (he contrary. If any player received a scratch or tiny bruis?, it surely was not the fault of an opposing player. There was no rough stuff. Mr. Chambers was tair to both teams and we believe he was sincere in calling them the way he did, but surely the men who wrote the rules for the game never intended for an to call them as close as he did. After all, though, its a lot better for the boys who play the game lor an official to call them that close than to let them get so rough that someone gets- hurt. 0 While the referee was calling , 37 foul* and putting six players cut of the game at Gprrett Saturday night, Joe Krick, Decatur hack guard, was not charged with a single personal foul. Joe was in the thick of the fight at all times, too. And to think, the officials at Huntington, Friday night, put Joe out of the game with four personals charged to him. X, •’ Berne's Fighting Five won another half-game Saturday night, against Liberty Center. However, the whole game went to Liberty Center, 35-24. Bern? led at the half, 13-10. Over at Ossian. Friday night, Barne led at the half, 24-23, Sut slumped badly in the second frame. The Geneva Cardinals did the iron nv->. stunt hurt PrtinjLMight, playing Jefferson and Monroe, and winning botlrgames. The two victories boost ed the CaYdinals' per centage considerably. That stunt almost nominates Geneva as a dark hon?e in the sectional tourney. • The Kirkland Kangaroos bowed before the Kirkland alumni Saturday Colds The 24‘hour piay There’s away. to end colds so efficient. so complete that we paid $1.00,000 for it.

night, but not until they had put up a hard fight. f Following the defeat of the Huntington Vikings by the Yellow Jackets at Huntington, Friday night* Huntington scribes sent out an alibi saying that Kindler, star forward of the Viking quintet, was declared ineligi®ble just before the game. There was a Kindler played in the second team game tnat evening, and we’re Inclined to believe he was the same Kindler who sometimes plays with the varsity. Coach Kreighbaum has not been using Kindler regularily with the varsity, so why blame the. Viking’s defeat on to his absence from the lineup? Besides Kindler played with the Vikings at Lafayette, Saturday night. The Vikings were defeated at Lafayette Saturday night by Jefferson hig>, 31-30 in an overtime game. Welch and Warentien were put out of the game on personals. The Yellow Jackets have their attention fixed on the Tri-State tourney at Cincinnati, starting Friday imorning. They will leave for Cincinnati Thursday. • Garrett high school is going jto have a new gym, with a seating capacity of 2,300.

Industry in general, and all the people whom industry serves must ultimately be benefited by the growth and expansion of aviation. The benefits to the entire world from the development of transportation on land and sea are appreciated by every thoughtful person. Swift trains and ocean liners have reduced distances on our earth, bringing about a shrinking of the world for purposes of commerce and communication, and making possible the present state of our civi'ization. X The use of the air for transportation marks a new era in the history of the world. Ipis man’s most sensational triumph over the elements. For centuries men dreamed of flving, but the natural law of gravity proved an obstacle unlike anything encountered on land or sea. Finally science triumphed and the obstacle was overcome. With the first controlled flight of Orville Wright on Dec. 17, 1903, man entered a new element, beginning the conquest of the ai». During the first decade of the 20th century, the pioneering work in aviation was done. Roughly speaking, the speed of the airplane has been increased at the rate of 60 miles per hour every four years since 1910. Designers have increased the climbing powers and fuel capacity of their machines. They have improved the ease of control and the rapidity of manoeuvre. Rapid improvement in reliability has been made. Sensational records of performance have been established—the flight around the world was perhaps the most gripping and appealing to the imagination. Today it is possible to fly around the earth! During this 20th century distances on our globe are being reduced startlingly by aviation. For all practical purposes the world is growing smaller. The importance of this shrinking of the world, to industry and to the welfare of mankind generally, is appreciated by the Standard Oil Company x (Indiana). x • For the success of its own business and in the interest of the thirty million people whom it serves, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) gives its , support to the development of aviation, believing that as distances are diminished, with the shrinking of the world, understanding and prosperity will be increased.
