ing game. . 000 And while speaking of tourneys, let's not forget the invitational tourney at Auburn Saturday. The I! loner the date approaches, the hotter this meet looks to the ' writer. On figures, three of the teams appear almost evenly match-i.-d, with the fourth and supposed-' lv weaker team, having the ml-! vantage of playing on its home! floor. 000 The three teams we figure ovenI ly matched, ate Decatur. Bluffton ind Kendallville, with Auburn, pn 1 |.ast i cord, appearing weaker ’han in past seasons. Looks to vn as though the team getting the break in the drawing should go through the tourney in good shape. | 000 By break in the drawing, wo mean the team that meets Zeke Young's Auburn five. Now. we oppose. Zeke will turn around and upset all our dope and win the tourney with his •supposedly' weaker team. 000 • Auburn may even upset our figures and run the Yellow Jackets i close race in the game here Friday. Decatur has appeared to lietter advantage this season while playing away from home on oreign floors. Sounds a little strange, Buck, but it's the truth, nonetheless. 000 Coach George Laurent has his Commodores working hard this week in preparation for the game with St. Mary's high at Huntington Friday night. —oOo — Huntington down'd the Commo-1 dores on the local floor in a tight I defensive battle by a two-point mar gin. 12 to IC. and Hie Commodore?, not only want a gain revenge with : a victory, but want to make that victory a decisive one.
