officer Harry Manning says: fo r a Lucky instead of a sweet. “XTL/HEN I climbed aboard the ‘America* after those cold, strenuous hours getting VV the men off the freighter ‘Florida,’ there was nothing I wanted so much as a M■- Lucky —‘By George,’ it tasted wonderful! A Lucky is always refreshing. My tense \ nerves relaxed, my aching throat was soothed and the whole thrilling adventure just seemed a part of the day’s work. As time goes by, and I look back to that memorA: able night, I’ll always remember the wonderful taste of that welcome Lucky. As I M went around to visit the men we’d rescued, 1 found many of them enjoying Luckies, |||||<. X to °’ We really couldn’t wait to get back to our ship and ‘Luckies.’ As an actual fact * n rcturn i n S to the ‘America’ I noticed one of our men* rowing with one hand and lighting a Lucky with the other. There’s no flavor to equal toasted tobaccos, and I always prefer Lucky Strikes. There’s wisdom in the saying: ‘Reach for a Lucky instead of a sweet.’ It helps a man to keep physically fit and we who follow the sea must always be prepared for any emergency.” “ reach f ° r OBjlA A lucky * Themanmentionedby /’ /7 instead of fS Chief officer Manning Harr V Manning . /'W was Boatswain’s Mate Chief Officer, now Acting Captain, L I SWEET.” AloyS A - Wilson ’ “ S - S - America” © 1929, The American Tobacco Co., Manufacturers • - ? z z '<' '%*. a^t—. %£. xx-r smoking to the improve.

Field Goals By Mark M. Upp The North Side Redskins will stage one of their stomp dances in the nil ,S. gym tonight. Ton’ght’s game will be the last heme conference game of the season for the Curtismen. Central and [Bluffton ate to be met away from ’ho [home court before the close of the [season. After tonight, the Jackets will appear in only one more home game before tourney time, and that will be against Elwood here Friday night of this week. The telegraph wires between Decatur and Dayton. Ohio, were plenty ■ ' warm today, as Father Joseph Hesi sion. of Decatur Catholic high school, negotiated with officials of! Stivers [high school for a game in Dayton on Feb. lt>. After several requests for ' a date, the Stivers officials finally wired Father Hesston yesterday that they would play the Commodores there on Feb. 16. The offer was accepted by the local school. This ' morning the Stivers officials wired ba< k for the season record and I i scores of the Commodores, saying [that they were considering two other I teams along with the Commodores for the game on Feb. 16. Stivers has not . been defeated this season and has ' piled up a big score on all opponents. Last Saturday. Stivers defeated Carr Creek. Ky„ semi finalist in the national tourney last year, 50-15. Coach George Laurent has been juggling the lineup of the Commoidotei considerably this week and it i is a matter of much speculation as to who will start against f’.C.H.S. hero I tomorrow night. C.C.'s victory over St. Rose, of Lima, last week, indicates that tlie Irish will be plenty I tough here. Lima's star forward, i Lynch, was held to one field goal ami

one free throw. Lynch has an aver-! age of ten point* a game this season [ and Is the leading scorer of all high school players Ji, Lima. The Junior band will be out for the game here tomorrow night and the ulnmni from the two schools will play the prelitn- 1 inary, starting nt 7:3<i o’clock. Go On, Make Us Mad "We ure confidentially informed,' Mark M„ that the Bluffton Tigers are I [fixing up a nice surprise package — [a regular wallop— for the Yellow [Jackets when they come to Bluff lon | | soon."- Rip Offs, Bluffton News. Ono of the sensations of northern Indiana luisketball last week-end was Goshen's 29-18 victory over the strong Horace Munn team of Gary. Many critics are prone to class the result las an upset, but a headline in the Goshen Democrat saye: “UPSET [ NOTHING! REDSKINS MERELY PLAY THEIR FORM." So there you are. Anyway, Big Bad Bunk I-Know-' I'm-Good Williams scored 7 field goals for Goshen, besides doing a lit- ' tie centering. He Likes Joe “Krick, tall Yellow Jacket backguard won I<l run a close race for Northern Indiana backguard honors, if lie were without a bad knee. That Joint, which caused him to wear a heavy brace, has the troublesome habit of going bad just when he [ needs it most. Despite the handicap, lie is a real backguard, and is prob-1 ably the best man to fill that position I against the Red Devils this season." — The Scoreboard, Kendallville News-Sun. In commenting on the Commodores' game with Andrews high school, to be played here on George Washington’s birthday, the Huntington Herald says. “Andrews presents one of the. st longest lineups in Huntington county and is expecting to defeat the Commodores.” Do you remember when Decatur lost to Rochester, 17-6 in the first round of the state tourney at Bloomington ih 1914, the tourney won by Wingate, when that team defeated Crawfontsville in the final game 24-1? ■ o — CONNERSVILLE — Twenty - five acres of four-inch ice was offered free for skaters by George M. Fries, farmer near here, after a field on his farm became flooded by recent rains and froze over during the cold spell.
