Yellow Jackets Meet

CURTISMEN TO .. MAKE ATTEMPT FOR SECOND WIN Auburn Greatly Improved Since Early Season Game With Locals Decatur high school Yellow .Jackets will meet a harddriving basketball aggrega-i tion from Auburn high school at Decatur hitrh school gymnasium at 8:30 o’clock tonight. The game w'll start at | 8:30 o’clock in order Io not conflict w’th th** church revival meetings. Coach Zeke Young will bring his Auburn charges to this city tonight for a return game. The Curtlsmcu defeated Auburn al Auburn in the second game of the season. The Auburn aggregation is composed of several veterans and a host of good material. There is not only a keen rivalry between the two schools but also! between the two coaches. Both Mr. Young and Mr. Curtis com-i from Morgan county and both certainly see to it that their teams got a fair deal from officials. Welbourn and Davis of Fo”t Wayne will officiate at tonight's tilt. It is expected that the gam® will be a stubborn battle. Two years ago, Decatur’s long list of ■ net victories was broken here tn the last game of the season when Auburn nosed out a three point victory over the Jackets. The two second teams will clash ' in the preliminary game, ami th? ■ big game wil) start at 8:30 o'clock. 1 Coach Curtis has sent h s netmen through a series of drills this 1 week, perfecting several new plays. The passing of the Jackets has improved greatly since the Mishawaka game last Saturday. Coach Young's aggregation last 1 Friday held the highly touted Fort Wayne Central team to a single point victory after an over time 1 grind was necessary to determine the winner. A hig score victory over Auburn will mean a step toward defeating Fort Wayne Central here next Friday and Coach Curtis stated he would send lis strongest combination into tonight's battle. It is ptobable that Reynolds and Engle will start at forward posit'ons; Gerber at cutter and Debolt and Scltnepp at guards. It is highly probable that Zetkle, guard and i Hebble, forward, will get into the ' fray Indore it gets very old. It was announced by school o"ficials today that several good seats are still available for tonight’s game. — — o d h. Two good basketball teams meet tonight. - -000— Two good coaches meet tonight — 000— A lot of rivalry exists between Coaches Herb Curtis and Zeke Young, l oth come from Hie hills of Morgan county, and both havbeen rivals in school, love, basket hall, etc, etc., and while it's always been a battle. Herb has usually won. —-000— Auburn, only last Fridav n ght, played Central of Fort Wayne a hard close game. Central finally won in an overtime period by a single point. —oOo— Tonight's game won't be a set-up. —oOo — Welbourn and Davis—are the officials—Mr. Elliott just hasn't bit his stride since a New Year's eve party. —oOo — Kirkland tackles Lancaster at Lancaster tonight. It's a big Job, but the Bryanmen have been placing some first-class basketball lately. —oOo— We sincerely hope that Buck in the News-Banner (west suburb newspaper) and Crowds at Hunt-ngton will take time off some week-end and come over and see the Yellow Jackets play—maybe next Friday wouldn't be so bad. when Decatur meets Fort Wayne Central. —oOo— The Commodores will remain at • x home this week-end because of a postponed game at Lima. A St.

tral.

Rose faculty member's deisth Mittse<] the postponement. — oOo — Shame on you, Crowds, for picking on tne| Here's whut one of the West Suburb’s budding young poets hits to say: "lb y Buck ■ Cash Keller and Dick Heller should he bumped oil the smellers for such a tangle us ter a bull game My idea of their collision is expressed In the fol lowing lines. Print ’em if you want to. ! "By the batiks of the Wabash rive , I By the whirling muddy water 1 Lived a scribe by name of K"ller. Who said things lie hadn't ortor.

'Liberty Center walked through th • I Montpelier Invitational tourney last week ami defeat?d the home V’aiu in tile linals by a 33 18 score. The writer saw the Liberty Lions de teat Hie strong Union Center team of Wells county, without undo; exert on last Thursday and the Redefin's at that time looked cap able of qualifying as first class hope-wteckers." Crowds. Hunting ton Herald-Press. —oOo— And if Hie Vikings do push and shove their way through a section al tourney, they won't last long r.t a sta'e tourney, where they have basketball officials on the flooi during Hie games. —oOo - As Graham McNamee would say: The weather here today is perfectly gorgeous. As the sun beamed above the beautiful flood waters of the St. Marys river at an earlv hour tliis morning to shine down on the Yellow Jacket Angels, that old sun knew full well that 'ere long before he would disappear th's evening another victory notch would be carved in the Yellow Jackets' net belt. —oOo - EXTRA! EXTRA! This is fresh from a twoparty telephone line and has been checked up and is official: Max E. Kidd, Jr., less than six months of age and with bigger and better lungs than his father, Coach Max Kidd, Decatur high school football mentor, blossomed out today wth a brand new tooth. And while a magn tying glass might be necessary to see the tooth for a few days, it's actually there and to see 'WhoopieL' - father and hear him tell of it, ydu'd think it was 18-karat gold. 000 - And now Max is working day I uid night to teach "Whoopie” to say PEAT BLUFFTON by Fefi:u ary 14. —oOo— Rev. Joseph Hission received a letter today from E'der h gh rchooi of Cincinnati officials asking for a game wth the Commodores. Rev. Hession stated that he would take the request under advisement and make an announcement in a few days. 000 - YEf LOW JACKETS, BEAT AUBURN.

(U.R) Indiana Central out-class c d Huntington college by the topheavy score of 39 to 13. after using second string players in the second hai of their first basketball game on I th° home floor, last night.
