Geneva vs. Bryant nt. Portland, p Saturday night—Berne at Petroleum, p Hartford vs. Jefferson at Berne, Mon-j ( roe vs. Monmouth at Decatur. i* Huntington can’t even boast of win-1 ning all games at home, now. Wiley, of Terre Haute, spoiled that record 1 Saturday night, by handing the Vik- ‘ ings a 24-21 defeat. I A Few Alibis, Etc. “After a long. < ”d ride to Decatur. . ast evening, the Kendallville Red Devils played >ne of the worst ball ] games of the sea-on to loose a 40 to | 15 decision to the Yellow Jackets. f Stiffened from the three and a half hour ride in a motor bus and hamper- ( ed by a low ceiling, the Stanleymen , put. in most, of their forty minutes of ] j play in an attempt to get warmed up. | , In a miserable first half the Yellow ’ Jackets, by dint of some nice pass ( , work and equally pretty shooting, ran | , up an 18 point score while the Red I Devils failed to count a single point. 1 | Wild shooting of both free tosses and ‘ j field shots prevented a Kendallville > score. With Krick. Gerber and Cole. ; all well over six feet, leading the ] : attack. Herb Curtis’ boys played fair-,; ly gc d hall, although they passed ! > bad y at times." —Kendallville News-; Sun. Do you remember when Monroe ‘ won the sectional tourney at Bluffton, in 1921, by defeating Liberty Center in the final game, 17-16, and then io t to Jefferson, of Lafayette, ! in the fost round of the regional tourney at Purdue, by a score of 20-16? Bluffton vs. Central "Yes, it was a colorful game— But one of the best we’ve seen this year. Central has a good team, no doubt, about that. They had assurance and plenty of drive. The Bluffton bays appeared a little nervous at times, but they played plenty nice and forced the issue all the way. The man-to-man defense of both teams was superb, Central's heavier players excelling a little in this department. Central’s edge in height and weight told the story in the game."—Out of Bounds, Bluffton Banner. “It was some game. Fort Wayne

c. ntra) Ims n stellar aggregation, their .iz.e giving them a big advantage over any opposing team. Blufft n Tigers deserve no end ol credit for staging the buttle they did. While Central won, Coach Mendenhall wasn't at ease at any stage of the encounter. Bluffton almost cam« thiough with a victory. Bluffton's poor marksmanship in last night's game was a lucky thing for Central I' tmlly the Parlor City lads snapped the kind "in" that didn't go “in” last night Central undeniably has one of the strongest if tint the best team in this part of the Hoosier state. That doesn't mean they can’t be knocked I off nt tourney time."—Rip Offs, BluffI ton News. Looks like this Yellow Jacket-North Side game hen tomorrow night would be some battle. The Redskins appear to have hit their stride, as j theii Battle against Central, Saturday ! night, indicates. No Argument “Those Decatur Yellow Jackets stopped Kendallville last night in a way that left no argument. Decatur, lied at the half, IS to 0, and copped the game 4b to 15. Didn't need to score at all in the last half." —Out of Bounds, Bluffton Banner. Listen To Him! "Decatur’s Yellow Jackets, over whom Mark M. T’pp casts a watchful eye, did themselves proud last night when they literally trounced Kendallville 40 to 15. It’s perfectly all right for Decatur to have their fun now. for they’re going to get real entertainment when they come to Bluffton. Prepare to shed a tear for the defeated Yellow Jackets.” —Bluffton News. o HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL Central (Fort Wayne) 20; North Side (Fort Wayne) 16. Elkhart 33; Kendallville 26.
