COMMODORES DEFEAT NEW HAVEN.2B-27 Catholic High Quintet Wins Close And Well-Played Game Here Decatur high school Commodores, playing their best game since they slaughtered tne Irish < athedral netters of Indianapolis last December, swept through a stubborn New Haven defense to win from the Bull Dogs of Allen county, 28-27. in one of the best games of the season at the Catholic high school gymnasium last night. The game was one of the best played this season and both teams strug g ed hard throughout the 40 minutes of playing During most of the scrap, it was anybody's game, but the last five minutes went to the Commodores by a slight margin. Petie Mylott and Bill (lass kept the Commodores in the race throughout the gruelling contest by caging counters from all parts of the Catholic high school hardwood. Kohne, at back guard, played his best game of the season, accounting for two field goals and doing a real job under the opponent's goal. It was the fourth game this season in which New Haven has played an Adams county team when the score varied but a single point and it was the third time New Haven had lost to an Adams county team by a single point margin. The Bull Dogs defeated the Commodores earlier in the season at New Haven by one point. Parks. Snyder and Brower were the big guns for the visitors and Lake and Mason fitted well into the* machinery of the quintet. The visitors' played a delayed offense, with a sharp break after the opponent's defense had j been set. The team-work of the visitors was agood as has been display-1 ed here this season. Neither team was able to score con-. sistently on short shots, but on offense the local netters had a deeid-1 ed edge and secured four more fie d . goals that did the Bull Dogs. New Haven was best from the free throw line, making a total of 9 points from | the charity line. Brower, New Haven guard, rang the first bell of the evening when he sent, the ball through the net for a 2-point-1 er after both teams had scrapped for: almost five minutes. Bill (.ass and ; Mylott each got a fielder and sent | the Commodores into the lead. With; about five minutes left in the first half the Bull Dogs crept ahead Io a 5-point advantage, 12-7. At this point of the game, Coffee, who had been on the bench because of sickness, was sent into the Decatur lineup and in a few minutes the Commodores went into the lead. The local netters had an edge at the half time, the score being 15-12. The Bull Dogs came hack strong in the second stanza, and grabbed the lead away from the Commodores. From this point of the game until the! end, the lead continued to change | hands with neither team getting more; than a 4-point advantage. In the last five minutes, the Commodores ran their score up to 28 to! 24 for the Bull Dogs. New Haven, then scored a fie d goal and a free throw and as the gun ended the battle both teams were fighting for the ball under the New Haven basket. tn the curtain-raiser, the Contmo-: dore second team defeated the New| Haven Yearlings, 12-4. Carl Lose was the chief scorer for the winners, hitting the net three times from the field.! New Haven failed to score a single; time from the field. Arnold, New guard, was high point man for the losers with 3 foul goals. Beal, of Franklin, officiated.

The association decreed that Tommy Loughran, light heavyweight; Mickey Walker, middleweight; Joe ■ Dundee, welterweight, and Sammy Mandell, lightweight, all must fight within sixty days or lose their titles. But the order was qualified with this phrase, "except for some valid reason.” The question immediately : arises “what is a valid reason for a fighter not defending his title?" The i commission did not answer it.

G. Selvig, Republican, Minnesota, recommend- I ■d higher protection for principal I agricultuiaJ commodities but opposed ’ any large increase in industrial I duties. “The farmers," he said, “expect to 'obtain protection for agriculture equal to that of any other American industry. i "Any large increase in farmers' I costs resulting from higher indusI trial duties will be opposed by the farmers, as tending to widen the present disparity that exists in the i purchasing power of farmers’ products." Selvig asked higher duties on livestock, dairy and poultry products, flax seed, corn, potatoes and potato starch, rutabagas, clover seed and tugar. A controversy over meat schedules, developed when western cattlemen , favoring higher tariff were opposed I by eastern wholesalers. B. F. Davis, of Denver, Colo., representing the Co orado farm bureau and stockholders’ assocation, said the Colorado livetock industry operated five years at a loss and the profits cf the last two years have gone toward paying off stock growers ‘indebtedness i Roy M. Cohen of New York City, representing more than 100 wholesal- . ers and chain store merchants of New York, opposed any upward revision in , the rates on frozen beef, frozen mut- > ton and frozen lainb. — o [ Kendallville To Vote On Sunday Movie Question Kendallville.

— i Field Goals I By Mark M. Upp — Anyone who likes basketball, certainly could have derived a real kick out of last night’s game between the Commodores and New Haven. Two .good teams played a good game. Now Huven appears to be the leading tough luck team of the season. The Bull Dogs have lost throe games to Adams county teams by u single point margin. They lost to Lancater by three points and to Fort Wayne Central by five points. In return, they had one good break by winning from the Commodores at New Haven by a single point margin. Now for Friday night. The Com tnodores meet Huntington Catholic here and the Yellow Jackets go to Garrett. Kirkland plays at Berne. This Kirkland-Berne game should give the fans and coaches, as well, some comparative dope on the coming sectional tourney here. Berne fans are predicting that the Bears will give the Kirkiand Kangaroos a sound drubbing. Berne predicts a 20-point victory, it is said. Considering the fact that Berne lias almost a veteran team, while the Kangaroos have only two of last year's championship team left, the Bears may be aide to turn the trick. Indications are that the sectional tourney here this spring will be the best one staged here for several years. Berne, Decatur and Kirkland all have powerful quintets, while Jefferson is not far behind. Geneva and Mpnroe have shown considerable strength at times during the season, also. Monmouth and Hartford appear to be the weakest teams in the county, but they may strengthen before tourney time. The team that wins will have to play ball throughout the i tournament. Central defeated South Side in the first game of the annual two-game series between the two major teams in Fort Wayne last night, 44-36. Dickey, the big South Side backguard, was sent to the showers by the referee after the first nine minutes of play, because the referee ruled that he had slugged a Centra', player. The score was tied then at 9-all. Therein lies the chief point for argujnent over the game. The quesI tions are, did Dickey slug and would I South Side have won if he had stayled in the game? We have our opin- | ions in regard to the Utter question I and would venture a guess on the other. However, the game played last night dees not count in the conference standing and the next contest between the two teams is the most important. Time Will Tell “As far as we're concerned, we’re not building up too much hopes for a We Is county victory in the regional at Fort Wayne for Mendenhall, Fort Wayne Central coach, has stated publicly that no team in this region can give his Tigers more than just a good I practice game. Mendy is such a truthful cuss we're almost forced to believe him! But we'll admit we would like to make him eat those horrid words. Yea, even if it took the Decatur Yellow Jackets to do it!” — Out of Bounds, Bluffton Banner. Favors Inter-County Game Walter J. Krick, prlncipai of Decatur high school, has written to Mr. I Rip Offs, of the Bluffton News, placI ing himself on record as favoring a championship game between the Decatur second team, winner of the Adams county second team tourney, and | the winner of the Wells county re-, serve team tourney to be held at, Bluffton Friday and Saturday. Mr. Krick suggests that the proceeds from the game, after expenses are paid, be divided equaly between the STOP THE FAT AND GET THIN The way to reduction is to stop the formation of fat.

After receiving the above letter, we make a little investigation and as far as we could find °"t we we.? wrong as Mr. S icky says. Mr. Treat er said nothing about the games play ed prior to the suspension and con trary to our belief, there is nothing in the bvlaws saying that the games shall be forfeited. Therefore, we beg Kirkland's pardon.
