STRONG CENTER LINE PREDICTED FOR LOCAL TEAM Heaviest in Last Several Years is Boast of 1929 Football Squad As the calendar drops off a number I each day, a few more converts are added to the fastly growing group of football critics being formed in Decatur and each night more talk is heard of that sport and less of baseball and golf. Coach Max Kidd announced today that the Yellow Jacket gridiron squad would he called together for its first scrimmage next week anil that every indication pointed to a successful season. Following a meeting yesterday with school officials, it was decided to retain the Country Club football field for the home games this year. With the opening game with Auburn less than a month away, local fans are gambling on predictions. Indications really point to a successful season for the Decatur high school football aggregation. Many veterans are on the squad this year,'and a lot of weight is being developed from the underclassmen who have joined the squad. The center of the local line, including the center guards ami tackles should be the strongest point of the local team this season. There is a wealth of fine material for these positions, and there is sufficient competition for every place on the team to warrant a lot of hard work on the part of every candidate. For center line positions thera are Ed Musser. Sghnepp. Potts, Williams. Parrish. Hurst, F. Musser, and Zerkle. all veterans of at least one season and all in good condition for the season's grind. Besides the veterans there are | Litter* r. Engeler, Bussee, Pelz. and Glen Roop, who showed up well in spring training and who will be making it tough all season for the veterans to hold their positions. At center position it is probable that Litterer, Engeler and Pelz will he the most formidable candidates. Coach Kidd plans to switch Williams, last yeai's center to a tackle position, because of his weight and experience. That the line will be one of the heaviest a Decatru team has boasted in many years is indicated by the weight of the most likely candidates. Ed Musser and Williams both tip the scale at well over 180 pounds; Parrish will break the 190 pound mark and Hurst weighs about 185 pounds. The other candidates are all above the usual weight average, and an all-sea-son scrap is predicted for line positions. _o ( Greensburg—span of eon used frequently in pageants in pioneer , days has been sold by George Liltell, j Greensburg, to Schellster and Wago- , ner, Fremont and Fostoria, Ohio, , shoe dealers, for SIO,OO.

Watching The Scoreboard • Yesterday's hero Arthur Shires, blond, boastful first baseman of the Chicago White Sox, whose long hit with bases filled in the ninth enabled his team to bent the Philadelphia Athletics, 4 to 3. It was the third straight defeat for the Athletics and their fifth loss in the last six games. Teddy Lyons out pitched Lefty Groves, holding the American league leaders to 6 hits. All three rims made off Lyons came as the result of errors. The White Sox made nine hits off Grove. As the New Yotk Yankees also lost, the Athletics did not lose any ground in the pennant race. The standing now is: Games W. L. Pct. Behind Athletics 83 36 .697 Yankees 69 46 .600 12 Both National league leaders won Thursday, the Chicago Cubs beating the Phillies. 16 to 7, and Pittsburgh defeating the New York Giants, 6 to 2. The Cubs gathered 21 lilts off four Philadelphia pitchers, English and Zach Taylor each made four hits. Jess Petty allowed the Giants
