Commodores Trounce Andrews

COMMODORES WIN HANDILY FROM ANDREWS Laurentmen Hit Net For Total of 26 Field Goals in Game Decatur Catholic high school Commodores, playing an oldtime brand of basketball, gave Coach Laurent the finest wedding present any team ever gave a coach, by turning back Andrews high school netmen. 66-33, at Catholic high school Saturday night. "'The Saturday night victory was the third victory for a Decatur baaketball lentn over a Huntington eoiinly net aggregation The defeat WWf decisive and the Commo dores looked more like the team that went to the semi-finals at the National Catholic tourney for two successive years than any produced sinew that time. Jerry Gage, who has been an important cog in the defense so far this year, assumed a new role when he crashed through the visitors.’ defense to score seven field goals. Carl Lose pushed through | for four field goals as did Wemhoff j and Mylott. Bill Gass brought the total of Commodore field goals up to 26 by ringing the hoop for seven. Millman. Andrews center was the most dangerous offensive man on the visiting aggregation, smacking the ball through the net five times from the field. Bare, Andrews forward. scored three fielders and Bellman, center, made two and Shaffer, guard, counted once from the fiffM The first five minutes of the game was close ami both teams were forced to slam away at the net from a distance. Laler, however, the Commodores began to break through the Andrews defense and at the half way mark Decatur was leading 30-16. The assault continued throughout the second stanza and with several substitutes sent in during the closing minutes, the Commodores continued to roll up the score to the greatest margin of the season. The Andrews team never surrendered and the last minute of the game found them fighting just as hard against the great Commodore offense as they fought in the first minute. In th preliminary game th" Commodore second team defeated Pleasant Mills high school. 21-9. Several new-comers were tried out fnr the. Commodores and they accounted well for themselves.

I BALL PLAYERS GET CONTRACTS New York, Jan. (U.R) Major league clubs will mail out the 19.10 contracts some time this month and one of them is expected to stipulate the largest basehall salary of all tliue. Quite naturally the contract will go to Babe Ruth, somewhere in Florida, and the figures are quite likely to read: ,150,000 forth» seasons of 1930 and 1931. Col. Jacob Ruppert and the Bab' 1 ' . are understood to have agreed on this figure some time ago when everyone else was cot.'erned over Miller Huggins' successor as manager of the New York Yankees’. After Ruth's contract was settled, the lesser important businss of picking the Yanks’ leader was gone into and ended with Boh Shawkey getting the assignment. Shawkey's salary is understood .to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 120,000. Afte r Ruth receives his contract he will bring It to the Yankees' office and the formality of signing t for the benefit of the camera men and newspaper photographers will take place. If Babe Ruths, baseball's highest I paid star, was easy to agree to i terms. Dazzy Vance ot Brooklyn I and Burleigh Grimes of Pittsburgh, I who are numbered among the ten h'ghest salaried players, probably will be two of the hardest to sign Vance drew $25,000 last season and will demand that salary again. Two members of the Brooklyn board of directors are in favor of trading Vance before they pay him the same salary again this season If Vance is sold or traded, he probably will land with either the Chicago Cubs or Cincinnati Reds. Grimes is understood to have asked the Pittsburgh club for a $20,000 salary next season and Barney Dreyfuss is said to be op posed to meeting the right-handed ace's demands. o lIL^7 D.j H fyjl And for the third time this l ueacon a Decatur basketball term decisively defeate I a Huntington county net team— New Mr. Crowds, aisbi that.

Then during the time-out periods, he Curtismen, directed by their ■oach in orchestra conductor fashon from the sidelines, could have aised their beautiful childish treble oices in hymnals of praise for beng permitted to live in Decatur, .he New Jerusalem of Hoosierdom. Now Mr. Crowds, we refuse to argue a lot of points—because you are publishing hearsay—havinr admitted that you did not witness the game— One of the officials, Immediately after the game said "I called so nany fouls for a few minutes, that i got ashamed of myself and if I lad called all the fouls thait the Vikings really committed, every . n on 'the squad would have been nit of the game." Does that m ike the situa ion any ■tea. er? And that Angel business. Crowds— Busketbawls believes that next to Heaven.

Johnson Takes Office Gary, Jan. 6 —<U.R)— Mayoralty confusion in the Calumet district held the attention of all Indiana today as old city administrations ivere replaced by the new. In four of the larger cities, th" Image in officials may not be permanent, depending on results of cases now in the hands of courts. The-e four are Michigan City. Gary, Whiting and Valparaiso. The election in each te under dispute and mayors took ff'ce under protest. Two mayors were expected to set up governments in Michigan City, where the Democrats have '•hallenged the election of Judge H. B. Tuthili on the ground that his nomination was filed illegally. Mayor Fred C. Mi'ler, Democrat, has indicated he will continue in office until his appeal of the election has been decided by court action. A threatened civil war at Gary was averted when Mayor Henry G. Hev announced he would turn over the reins of government instead of holding over until courts have decided the issue between Roswell O. Johnson, Reqniblican, and Emmet White, Democrat, as he had intended. Johnson won the election and has been given the certificate of office but he took the position to•>sv under protests of Democrats, who charge that, conviction of a rrohibition ’aw violation has made him ineligible. White first announced he would set up a government today, but Saturday he decided to merely fl’e a protest and await court action. It was understood today that any <-nnir‘m'mts made by Johnson will be affirmed by White. Should Tchnson be declared ineligible it is expected Hay will renew his fight for the office. In Whiting. Thomas S. Boyle. Democrat, will assume office under authority given him by the election board after he won by seven votes. His position is contested by Walter Schrage, appointed by the city council to carry on the fight of Francis McNamara, who HAVE COLORIH CHEEKS If your skin is yellow—complexion pallid— tongue coated—appetite , oor —you have a bad taste in your mouth —a lazy, no-good feeling—you should try Olive Tablets.
