Catholic of Fort VVavne argument which vMI lie sett'ed on the local hardwood Wednesday night. —oOo— Th<* Commodores can w'n if !h *y play the basketball they heve dispJryed once or twice this season —ls they just go into ‘h- game with an indifferent attitude the score won't be so pleasant. —oOo — At any rate we're picking the Laurentmen to win by from five to 10 points. —oOo— Coach Laurent started his netters through a tough drill today and tomorrow. Wednesday night the Catholic high school gymnasium should he packed. Fort Wayne is sending a delegation of more than 100 fans to the game——oOo— The Commodore-C.
