YELLOW JACKETS WIN EASY GAME BY 55-15 COUNT Monroeville Netters Furnish Little Opposition For Curtismen Decatur high school bellow Jackets shoved their stingers deep into the Monroeville Cubs in the opening basketball game of the 1929-30 season at the I)ecalnr high school gymnasium last night and turned back the Allen county ham by a score <>t 55-15. Coach Curtis used 12 men in the tilt, and every eoni-j biii.dioii worked good on boiin olTense and defense. At the start of the Kame Coach Curtis sent Engle and Reynolds in as forwards; Gerber as center and Sehnepp and Debolt ns guards. The combination worked fine and in a few minutes the Jackets had the game well in control and were scoring almost at will. Both teams started slow and the officials called many close fouls in the first ten minutes. As the game wore on, it became looser. Gerlier, j Reynolds. Engle and Debolt all bit | the net for twoipointers in the first j 19 minutes. The hilt ended 27-9 The second half was almost a repetition of the opening frame, excent Coach Curtis substituted freely. All the utility men played good, which indicates there will lie a hard struggle for first team positions throughout the season. Hill, a substitute forward | and Hebble, substitute guard scored three and two field goals respective-1 ly in about a minutes time. Both players fitted well into the defense, i Dick Engle was high point man for ! the Curtismen with 11 points, and I White, Monroeville guard was high scorer for the visitors with a field ' goal and four fouls. White, however, was at a loss on defense and was unable to come close to guarding Dick Engle. Monroeville scored five field goals during the entire game while the Jackets were plowing through for a total of 23 two-pointers. Marquart and Shaefer. Monroeville players were sent to the showers in the second half on personal fouls. Carl Gerber, veteran center for the local aggregation, was in mid-season form and his height and basket ability were big factors in the offensive march of the Jackets, while his defensive work along with Sehnepp and Debolt aided In holding the visitors to fe4- shots. In the preliminary game the Embryo Jackets trounced the Monroeville Seconds by a score of 27-14. Monroeville led at the half 11-10. and continued their lead until about the middle of the second period, when the Decatur netters came to life and bombarded the net with a series of long and short shots, which took the heart out of the visitors.

' ‘ - o— Alhie Booth May Be Out Os Yale Lineup New Haven, Conn., Nov. 16—(U.R) — Whether or not Albie Booth, the stpark plug of the Yale football team, would appear in the Eli-lineup against Princeton was a vital question as throngs arrived in New Haven for this afternoon's important game. Booth went to the infirmary yesterday with a chttrley horse and Paul Barnett, publicity director, announced that the halfback whose sensational runs this season have made a mediocre Yale team into one of the eastern leaders, would not play. Booth was visited later in the infirmary. "Sure I’m going to play," said Albie. "I'm not supposed to talk about it but I’m 0.k.” Informed of this development Coach Mai Stevens added a "probably” to his earlier announcement that Booth would not appear at the game. With Booth out Princeton had a good chance to win. With Albie in

the game the Tigers' chances would not Is 1 considered so good. Yale and Princeton have played 52 gms since 1873, Yale winning 27, Princeton 16 ami nine being ties. BASKETBALL SCORES ' Auburn 33.

I.H.S.A.A. SYSTEM IS THREATENED Muncie, Ind. Nov. 16 —(UP) — A threat against the present system of controlling high school athletics, is contained in a statement by Roy M. Friedley. state senator from DelaI ware county, who was angered by a ruling of Arthur I* Trester, commissioner of the High School Athletic Association. Friedley charged that “politics” had much to do with Trester’s ruling that Lowell Justice. DeSota youth, is not eligible to compete in high school athletics at Muncie. In retaliation, he said he will introduce a bill before the next legislature proposing to turn control of high school athletics over! ’ to the state. An open le’ter from Friedley to Trester contained mischarges. “Politics is the full reason for the beginning of this case and for your! decision." the letter said. “I can show beyond a doubt that politics has been the evidence from which you made your decision. "At the next session of '.he legislature I am going to use my efforts to take the school athletics out of private control and put them under sta e control, and the funds derived therefrom shall be prorated back to the schools participating.” o Purdue Faces Strong lowa Team On Gridron Ross-Ade Bowl. Lafayette. Ind . Nov. 16— (UP) —Purdue and lowa met today in the Big Ten game which was either to clinch for the Boilermakers their first conference title, or throw the percentages into a confusion from which almost any contender might emerge victorious. Both teams appeared to be in ex cellent condition, and starting lineups showed no ommissions because of injuries. Two backfields which loom formid ably for all-American consideration were opposed to each other. Glassgow and Pape, the Hawkeye stars who upset the mighty Minnesoans last Saturday, are pitted against Welch, Harmeson, Yunevich and White i group always mentioned together, ■ and in much the same tune that bespoke the famous tour horsemen of Notre Dame. All reserved seats had been sold for several days, and the good weather brought a big demand for the few remaining bleacher benches. 0 GENEVA UPSETS JEFF NETTERS
