Bluffton’* yuperior height, enabling the Tigris to control the ball the greater part of the time, was the deciding factor.

Dates this year are earlier than in former years, purposely set to avoid conflict with tilt , I. H. S. A. A. tourneys. Despite a heavy financial loss suffered in last year’s tourney, planus to stage the meet again this year were made after most of the Catholic high schools in the state requested the tourney. The meet will be held at the Armory in Indianapolis, the same as in previous years. The Decatur Commodores, winners o! the 1930 tourney, will compete again this year. If strength I .i ae teams can be guaged accurately, the tourney may be limited [to eight teams. If such a plan proves feasible, sessions will be held Friday afternoon and evening and Saturday afternoon and evening. The winner and runner-up in the tourney will be entered in the annual national Catholic tourney at Loyola University, in Chicago. The 1931 state tourney will be the fourth annual meet. o Henry Thomas made a business , [trip to Ansonia, Ohio today. as

Well, they ‘done' it. Right off ''he hat. the Tigers came along •nd upset the dope. Not only that, ; 'hey cracked the Yellow Jacket ■ winning streak. 000 We'll give credit to that Bluffton ' 'earn. They had the better ball bib last night and deserved to | «in. Those Tigers would have I been tough for any team to crack ast night. ' 000 In one wav. we are glad to see 'he Yellow Jacket winning streak broken. It doesn't do a team a bit of good to go through a long stretch of games without a loss. A team needs to fight from behind occasionally to really become a great Isall club, which we sincerely believe Coach Curtis has this year. 000 We feel sure the Commodores will give us a victory tonight. They meet the. Concordia high school team here tonight and we are predicting a rousing Decatur victory. 000 And we are starting right now pulling for a state champion-hip for the Commptlores again this yea". The state tourney will be held at the Indianapolis Armory February 27 and 2S and we want Ihe Commodores to retain their state title, won at the tourney last year. 000 Guy Brown, principal of D.H.S. I just called to inform us that he has received 250 tickets for the blind tourney at Auburn next Saturday. January 17. These are all season tickets and are priced |l. 000 Looks like a real tourney, with' | Decatur, Bluffton, Auburn and Kendallville entered. Drawing for the meet will lie made one hour before the afternoon session, which 'starts at 2 o'clock. 000 Kirkland lost a tough one to Fort Wayne C. C. last night. A little better luck in shooting and the Kangaroos would have pulled out a victory. 000 BEAT CONCORDIA, COMMODORES. O ?

STATE STUDIES PLANTOGIVE AGED MEN WORK Boston. Jan Hj—(UP)—Massachusetts is making a comprehenslv. study of ways and means of providing gainful occupation tor men of 45 or older. E. Leroy Sweetser, state commissioner of labor and Industries, does not believe in the popular theory that many men above 45 have outlived their usefulness In industrial ! life. For more than 10 rnon'hs. Sweetser's department has been working and has achieved fair success. Os 2.000 middle-aged men applying for jobs during that period, about 700 t have been placed and are now profitably employed. At present, Sweetser is considering the feasibility of establishing a vocational school for unemployed | older men where they could be ■ taught up-to-date methods in many activities whereby their wage-earn-ing years would be greatly extended. —o MONROE NEWS The Ladies Aid Society of the Monroe M.
