COMMODORES DEFEAT PITT Smoky City Boys Lose To I). C. H. S. Quintet Sunday Night, 39-25 Further proof of the superiority of Hoosier basketball was heaped upon the quintet from Technical high school of Pittsburgh, Pa., last night, when the Decatur Catholic high school Commodores handed the easterners their fourth consecutive defeat on Hoosier soil in four days. The Commodores stopped the invaders, 39 to 25, in a slow but interesting game. The Smoky City boys lost to Hunt ington high school on Thursday night; to Bluffton high school on Fridaynight, and to South Side high of Fort Wayne on Saturday night. The attendance at the game here last night was much smaller than hoped for. but the extremely cold weather probably kept down the attendance. The Pittsburgh team looked like it might have been receruited from among the delegates to a League of Nations assembly. The lineup included one Finn, two Irishmen, one talkative Italian, one Jew and one German. The coach, who is a Welshman. said he left two Hungarian substitutes at home. The Commodores never permitted the Technicians to hold the lead, although the score was ti“d at 5-al). The first half ended with Coach Laurent's eagers holding a 22-19 advantage. The score remained close throughout the third quarter (the game was played in quarters in accordance with the eastern rules), but the Commodores heaped up the score tn the final quarter. The score nt lone time in the third quarter stood, 37-25 in favor of the Commodores. The score board showed the Commodores leading 41-25 when the gun cracked, but it was announced at the score bench that the last basket did not count, as the time was up before it was shot and tile timer failed to fire his gun. Siljander. the big blond Finn who played center for Pitt, was the outstanding star in the visitors’ lineup. Ho not only led his team in scoring with four field goals and two free throws, but he excelled his teammates in floor work Rodgers, a guard, also showed flashes of good work. Bill Gass and the Mylott brothers did the heavy scoring for the Commodores, in fact, they scored all hut one of the 39 points. Gass and Pete Mylott each sank six field goals and Hocky Mylott caged fonr. Gass got two free throws and Hocky. four, while Miller added the other point with a free throw. Weinhoff, who jumped center and went back to guard, put up a nice defensive game, and Miller, although he had tough luck in shooting, played a nice floor game. The Pitt players showed an adeptness at fouling. Four personals were (idled oh McCabe and LaCasio, the two stalling forwards, and as the visitors hud only six players on the trip, Coach Laurent, of the Commodores, permitted Coach Collier, of Pitt, to put one of the banished players back in the game. LaCasio finished the game. In the preliminary game, the Catholic high school second team lost to a team composed of 1). C. H.

FIELD GOALS * By MARK M. UPP from Technical high school of Pittsburgh and their coach must be fully convinced by this time that Indiana tenms really play basket-1 ball. I Coach Collier, cf the Pitt team, said when asked why he decided to bring his team to Indiana on this trip. "Oh, we’d heard so much about Indiana being a hotbed of basketball and we wanted to find out more about it—whether the class of basketball in Indiana is as good as that in our part of the country. And believe me, we’ve found out." League Os Nations “Out of Pittsburgh's smoke last night came a league of nations without a rule book. Bluffton handed over to Fort Wayne today a group of Pennsylvania high school boys who ire more than ever convinced that Indiana is no place to go looking for victories in basketball.’’ — Bluffton Panner. The Commodores handed the eastern crew its third worst beating of the four it received in this neck of the # woods. Huntington trimmed them 22 points; South Side outscored hem 16 points; the Commodores final lead was 14 points and Bluffton out-shot them Ift points. Pitt scored 83 points in the four games while their opponents scored i total of 145 points. Games this week, include: Friday light—Berne at Dola.,Ohio; Auburn .t Decatur; Decatur Catholic at Richmond L'athoHc; Union Center at Kirkland. Saturday night—Decatur it Fort Wayne South Side; Geneva vs. Monroe at Decatur. GRID FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT ——— Coaches End Meeting With i Confidence Os Big Year In 1928 New York Jan. 2—(UP)—What’s wrong with football? lb l final decision of tlie men who run the great intercollegiate sport is that football has just started on its most prosperous era and that it will prove to be a more vital factor in developing the youth of America in 'he future than it has in the past. After the most harmonious and ■ventful meeting since the establishment of the football coaches’ assoclar tion six years ago, coaches from every section of the country departed today confident that football in 1928 would equal and surpass football in 1927. a record year in itself. Football has not yet reached its peak in the opinion of John L. Grifilth. commissioner of the western ■onference.
