I WHIPPETS WIN FROM 0. E. CLUB The Kirkland Whippets walked iiwny from the Dmnitur Genertl Electric Cluh n Hern In the first half and then manage ! to hold at buy a Decatur rally in the second sTanza and won the first of a three game basket hall series at Kirkland gymnasium last night, 36-25. Tire game was interesting, especially during the second half, when the local team tore loose w ith all I’s power in an effort to overcome a, 27-12 lead piled up by th' home] team in the opening minutes of play. The lea 1 was too much and the Whippets coasted home to another w n and (he 1' st ijame of the county championship s ries was tucked away in the victory sack. The next game be ween the two feints will be played at Decatur h'gh schorl gymnasium February 18. in the preliminary game last night Decatur Merchants and Kirkland Farmers played a 21-21 tie. It was decided to play off the game us a preliminary to the second G. E. Uiu'b-Wh ppets game here on February 18.

P- rs e'H-' They’re at It again—The Yellow Jackets af'er a several day va ation a.e back drilling on the hardwool for the two emaining games on the schedule. The West Suburb tilt i« scheduled for February 14 and the at rett-Decatur game is scheduled for February 21. A lot of talk is heard every, place about the approaching Commodore-Kirkland high school game scheduled for Decat'.ir Ca halic high school gymnasium Friday night. The Kangaroo fans say their aggt negation; will walk away from th? Laurentmen —while the Commodore fans believe their netmen can easily dispose of the Bryanmen. Anyway, it's going to be some game—and a record crowd is -xo»cted to fill the gymnasium Friday night. Our honest opinion is that if Det-ting-r, Kirkland center, can avoid M It s usual fouling ways, the game will be close. The Commodores have the advantage of their own floor, which should mean a victory to them. If Oettinger is forced from the game early on fouls, the Commodores will win handily. We say that because De finger has left every game but one this reason via the foul route—He plays hard and is one of the best centers in the county, except for his weakne. b of being too energetic to get lj control of the hall. Well, the Bryanmen and several hundred Kirkland fans are coming to Decatur Friday night for the contest—and it's needier® to cay there’ll be a good crowd. Coaches throughout the state are t. ngthenlng their forces for the approaching tournaments. Several outstanding teams are looming up in the various parts of the state. Sport writers can't figure Horace Mann Ijß of Gary. When they're just about ready to drop that quintet from the leaders, the Gary a9B r egation bobs up with a victory over Frankfort. It looks as if Martinsville, Frankfort and Horace Mann were as goo I as any teams in the state. This Fort Wayne sectional is go ng to be some tournament. The draw isn't going to make a whole lot of difference. If Decatur wins —and all in lications point to

the Curtismen as favorites to winthe Jackets will have to dispose of three strong teams. South Sfde and Central at Fort Wayne and New Haven all are good teams They'll no doubt cause Decatur some trouble —but the Curtlstmta have d. featel all three of them. If the Yellow Jackets defeat Bluffton a week from Friday, without a lot of trouble, as they chould do, they'll be in good chape for the sectional. Without joking any, Bluffton Is a tho. n in Decatur's path. The Cuitisin ti usually win, but the Parlor City boys are always .ough foes. I I If you haven’t got tickets yet for i the Bluffton game, better make arrangements. Remember the tick t fiasco at tho Central game. A week from Sunday the draw will be made for the State Catholic tourney. Decatur has a good chance of winning the tourney. Garrett, Decaturs last net rival of the season, has a good record so tar this year. Well, So Long, we’ll see you later. LIVELY BALL WILL REMAIN New York. Feb. 6. (U.R) Baseball's “lively ball"—which has produced nearly 10,000 major league home runs in the last ten yearswill remain lively during the 193') season and the home run promises to continue a dominating influence. Tlie magnates' only move toward curtailment of the home run production has been refusal to meet salary demands of star sluggers. Babe Ruth. Chuck Klein of the ] Ph Illes: Mel Ott of the Giants and I I'abe Herman of Brooklyn, leading exponents of the Ruthian art, are isted as “holdouts." However, there is little prospect that the alary disputes will be allowed to keep the home run hitters out of iction. The attendance records have increased annually and while this I situation exists club owners will ppos? any attempt to reduce th" rosil ency of the ball. Since the introduction of the ively ball, in 1920, National league players have made 5,212 home runs and American leaguers 4.670. New high records were made in both leagues last season with 755 irt the I National league and 595 in the American. Babe Ruth has been Hie biggest individual producer of circuit ] clouts, with 467, while the Yankees are team leaders with a total if 1,200. Manager Dan Howley of the Cincinnati Reds made the only trades completed at the recent gathering □f baseball men in New York, securing pitcher Douglas McWeeny from Brooklyn and shortstop Leo Durocher from the New York Yankees. Adolfo Lttque was sent to Brooklyn in exchange for McWeeny. The Reds gave an unannounced amount of cash and a player to be named later tor Durocher. Outfielder Chick Fullis and two recruits, pitcher Wallie Brush and catcher Franc s Healey have signed their 1930 contracts with the New York Giants. o FIGHT RESULTS Pa is.
