COMMODORES BEAT ASHLEY IN NET TILT Laurentmen Have Little Trouble With Opponents And Win 38-15 Decatur Catholic hit’ll school Commodores continues to stay in the 100 percent, column by defeating Ashley high school netters at Ashley Friday night by a score of 38-15, Die Commodores had a little trouble getting organized in the first half, but the locals never were in danger. The Commodore defense worked fine and Ashley was only able to penetrate the Green and Gold's stone | wall three times during the entire! game. The rest of Ashley's points, were obtained from the free throw line. Carl Ixjse sank a free throw for the ' first Decatur marker and from then ■ on the Commodores led. The half ended 14-9 in favor of the locals. In the second period Bill Gass suffered an injury to his ankle and Bob Ilolthou-e took his place. Holthouee sank three field goals in the last half. Carl Lose played his first full game with the Igiurentmen ami gave a good account for his being elevated to the regular team and besides counting 6 points he played a good defensive game. Coach Laurent used all 10 of his players during the game, and the Commodores had little trouble break-, ing through the Ashley defense for j counters. s. Due to the late arrival of the local ': team and because of a long prelimin- t ary game, the big game did not end until after 11 o'clock. For this reason the score was not sent back to De- I catur until after midnight. : Lineup and summary: I Decatur (38) F.g'. F.T.

KIRKLAND LOSES TO LANCASTER Kirkland township high school Kangaroos were defeated by the crack Lancaster township high school netters of Wells county at the Kirkland gymnasium 25-19 Friday night. Kirkland held a lead of three points until five minutes before the game ended, but the closing rally of the visitors proved too much. During the closing minutes, with the Kangaroos still leading, McKean Kirkland man was injured and fell to the floor. The Kirkland team stopped to see what was wrong with their team-mate, and the Lancaster team dribbled down the floor and wiped out the Kirkland lead. The official ruled that the basket counted and from that time on the Kirkland defense and offense cracked wide open. The half ended with Lancaster leading 10-7. At the opening of the second period Kirkland took the lead and held it for 15 minutes. The two teams* were evenly matched and a large crowd watched the game. Lineup and summary: Lancaster (25) F.G.

Dean Indiana University Article 3—Changes tn Basketball | Rules 1929-30 Basketball fans should have a fair . knowledge of the rules in order to . enjoy the game fully. In this article the impoitant rule changes for this year will be discussed and it might be well for those who like their basketball to cut out the rules and study them occasionally during the basket- . ball season. Rule B—On a jump ball at center lor elsewhere, the jumpers will be forbidden to touch the ball after it i has been tapped until it has touched the floor or another player, except I that the jumpers may tap the hall a (second time If the first tap does not carry the ball to one of the other eight players or to the floor outside the circle. The penalty for infraction of this rule is a violation and the ball goes to the opponents out of bounds. This new rule prevents tall men from catching the ball after the jump which was n decided advantage. Up until last year, catching the ball after the tap was one form of stalling. Rule 15—Tlte technical fouls on the jump ball, such as tapping it on way up. or leaving the circle, have been changed to violations. The ball i is given to opponents out of bounds. This change lessons the severity of a minor foul and tends to speed up ■the game. Rule 15—Penalty for Personal Foal —When a player has been fouled in the act of shooting, the ball is to go to the center after the second free throw, if the field goal is made. If the field goal is missed, the old rule holds, viz., and the ball is in play if the last free throw is missed. This rule change will help the game considerable by stopping the “5 point play." Formeily the ball was in play and on a missed free throw the ball might be batted in for another basket. Rule 9—A goal from the field shall count for the team into whose basket i the ball was thrown. If a free throw |is made at the wrong basket, and if the mistake is discovered before play (hats been resumed, the throw is to be disregarded and player given a throw at the proper basket. Rule 6 —-Duties of officials — The rules committee has sanctioned the ■'Double referee system" which has one official ahead of the ball and one behind, each man working his side of the floor. - Rule 7 —Due allowance is to be | made for a player who catches the ball while running. A player receiving the ball in rapid motion should l>e permitted a two count rhythm in coming to a stop. In some caeca officials have ruled too. strictly on this play for the good of the game. The idea is to get a uniform ruling. ARTICLE V FUNDAMENTALS Fundamental tra'ning forms the backbone of good offensive and defensive basketball. By fundamentals we mean the correct execution of all passes, shots, pivots, turns and stops. Individual defensive technique and clever offensive tactics are also included under fundamentals. Fundamentals should be mastered before the coach can rightfully expect good execution of plays. Much time should be spent on fundamentals throughout the year with most of it coming during the first of the season. No attempt will be made to describe the detailed execution of the fundamentalzbut instead the proper use of them. PASSING Passing is one of the most important fundamentals and without good passing. scoring opportunities will be fewer. Coaches strive for accuracy in this department of the game because one bad pass begets another. Between 175 and 275 passes are made in the average game and if passing is bad, chances of winn a are slim. If the team is weak in shooting, it should be very strong in passing in order to work the ball in for better shots. A baskethall team should drill only on the kind of passes that will be used most in its offense. Most teams have what is known as a team pass; this is the pass most frequently used. The style of play will determine the team pass. MONDAY:—Kinds of Passes Penn Announces Its 1930 Grid Schedule Philadelphia, Nov. 30.—(U.R)—Five new opponents—Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Wisconsin, Virginia and Kansas—are included on the University, of Pennsylvania's 1930 football ached-1 ule, announced yesterday. All games are to played at Franklin field, except the Wisconsin contest which will take place at Madison, Oct. 18. I

JARMY AND NOTRE DAME MEET IN B ■ GRID CLASSIC All Available Tickets Sold: Cold Weather Is Reported I New York, Nov. 30.—(U.R) —A Notre Dame teain- one of the greatest ever ! turned out at South Bend —ends an unusually successful football season here today, seeking to keep its record clean by a final and climatic victory over the Army. Unbeaten find untied this year, although their coach, Knilte Rockite, was stricken and kept bed-ridden since mid-season, the Irish enter their last game of the season strongly favored to defeat the Cadets. Along Broadway, where tickets for the game, which will be watched by nearly 85,000, have been sold for as high as $lt)0 a pa r, the belting was 10 to 7 on Notre Deme. Although Rockne is confined to his bed back in South Bend and Tim Moynihan, one of the year’s greatest centers, is out of the game with a broken leg. the Irish, on their season's record and reserve strength, rate as a far stronger football aggregation than "Biff" Jones' Cadets. The latter, after a disappointing season, were inspired to fight their hardest today by thtj fact that their head coach is leaving after this season. his four years at West Point at an end. 'Bed’’ Cagle, Hertz Murrell, George Perry and other Army heroes of past years will be playing their next to last game in Cadet uniforms, and a combination of inspirations may have driven them to surprising efforts before the day is done. , Every feature of this last big game . of the eastern gridiron season prom- ; ises to make it one of the most colorful in the history of football engagements between the two institutions. The Army plays Stanford on the far coast late next month, but for Notre Dame this is the tinal game of the year. Rockne has announced that the Irish will accept no invitations for post-season contests. x Probahle lineups. Notre Dame Pos. Army Colrick. LE Carlmark , Donaghue LT Price ( Law(C) I.G Number .

Nov. 30. —(U.R)—The New; York Sun named today its all-America football eleven, an alternate eleven and 100 players with “all-America rating.” The backfield was made up of Caredo of Notre Dame. Marsters of Dartmouth, Glassgow of lowa, and Parkinson of Pittsburgh. The Sun inclined to the opinion that Glassgow was the outstanding back of the year and Cannon of Notre Dame the outstanding lineman. The middlewest placed five men on the first team, the east four, the southwest one and the west coast one. The teams follow: First Team Schoonover, Arkansas, left end. Nagurski, Minnesota, left tackle. Schwarz. California, left guard. Ticknor, Harvard, center. Cannon, Notre Dame, right guard. Sleight, Purdue, right tackle. -Donchess, Pittsburgh, right end.

Wayne Fort Wayne Nov. 30— The biggest wrestling event that has ever been attempted in this section is scheduled for Wednesday night, December 4, at I Fort Wayne when the world's heavyI weight champion, Ous Sonnenberg, meets George Mack of Detroit in a finish match at the Moose auditorium. Fort Wayne promoters have been angling for Sonnenberg for nearly a year and matchmaker Peter Colan of

the Moose finally succeeded in securing him for this engagement. It will not be merely another workout for the champion, for Mack, who has been selected as his opponent from a group of highly capable gripplers, is certain to give the title holder n battle. Mack is hlg and tough and a veteran at the game. If he does not win one fall dining the evening, his Fort Wayne followers will be surprised and some of them even think he may upset the champion, Sonnenberg, before hi- took up wrestling, acquired nation-wide fame through his football prowess at Dirtmouth, where he won all-American honors ns a tackle. He won the championship from Strangler Lewis at Boston in January and has defended It in nearly a hundred matches since, including three with In-wis. the former champion. There will be two matches otFthis card in addition to that between Sonnenberg and Mack. Henry Stoeff, former coach at Wisconsin university and now one of the best professional grai> piers in the middle west, will meet Tony ll.tjdick of Portage Park, 111., in the semi-windup. rM'vVwtn The Commodores, minus Petie Mylott and part of the time with- I out the services of Bill Gass, sent another net aggregation down to Davie Jones' locker. —oOo—- — C. H. S. carried the Green and Gold colors into the Ashley high school territory and returned with a 38-15 win tucked under their belt. —oOo— It was a great game and two Commodore reserves, Carl Lose and Knute Holthouse deserve a lot of the credit. Os course the regulars did a lot of work but Carl Lose was all over the floor and was an important cog in the offense and defense. —oOo — Holthouse went into the fray with little experience on the Commodore team but he worked well into the old ship and it looks as if the Commo-j dores were going to be mighty hard! to beat, even with Petie out. Bill Gass suffered an injury to his ankle—but it was stated today that the injury is not a serious one. —oOo — Next Wednesday night Anderson; Catholic high school quintet comes to Decatur for a game with the Commodores. These Anderson-Decatur games are always good ones —and the teams apparently are evenly matched. —oOo — Decatur high school Girls lost a game last night to Garrett high school. The girls played good basketball and are to be complimented on their showing. It is the first Girls' team Decatur has had for several years. —oOo— Hard luck seems to be hot on the heels of the Commodores but he can't catch those boys, for they just don’t seem to care who gets hurt, they win games any way—and by the way Ashley only got three field goals. —oOo— A week from tonight Decatur high school Yelow Jackets will journey into the West suburb, for a little hardwood argument — Decatur should wm easily — Coach Curtis stated he would give his squad an intensive drill during the next several days in preparation for the double-bill next week-end. —oOo—Friday night at Winamac — Saturday night at Bluffton. —t>Oo— Bluffton has a nice big gymnasium with a lot of seats and it’s usually filled to capacity when Decatur plays there. —oOo — Word from Bluffton is to the effect that the Tigers are hoping to win by the same sort of a lucky break that gave their football team a freak win over Decatur a few weeks ago—but the Jackets are prepared for such breaks now—and it looks like the Tiger colots of Red and Black will be lowered at half-mast a week from Sunday. —oOo— Buck in his News-Banner column reminded the Wells county folks today that next on the program _ was Decatur——oOo — Duck will probably cut loose next week with some cutting remarks — and Roger undoubtedly will have a few clusters of words in the column —but don't worry Yellow Jackets, , they’re nice boys—and they’ll admit you've got a good team. —oOo— Commodores, beat Anderson. —oOo— Yellow Jackets beat WINAMAC and BLUFFTON.
