YELLOW JACKETS BEAT BLUFFTON TIGER
DECATUR DOWNS PARLOR CITY TIGERS, 15-13 Yellow Jackets Nose Out Victory After Bitter Defensive Battle The Decatur Yellow Jackets ami: Hluffton Tigers fought through four quarters of the toughest defensive 1 battle seen in a long time, with | Decatur winning 15 to 1:1. The Bluffton community building where the j old rivals staged the game, was just j about crammed to capacity. The game was a real thriller h!l| the way. with the result iu doubt until the final gun. Decatur held the lead all through the game, with two exceptions, which were of hut short duration. Only one or two points separated the two" teams most of the way. i Decatur once led by four points anti again by three but liluffton dosed [ the gap to a closer margin. At the j end of the first quarter the score 1 was tied at 2-2. At the half, Decatur | led. 6 to 4 and at the third qnarte" j he Yellow Jackets were still leading II) to !l. ’ Both teams gave a fine exhibition i of defensive play, with both clubs refusing to take chances on losing possession o' the ball by taking! many shots. The defense put up by ! bo;h teams made dose shots just about impossible and the two teams j re'used to crack many long ones. Excitement was at the highes' | pitch in the last few minutes of tiegame. Bluffon went into the lead at 13-12 with three minutes to go but J. Hill got loose under the baa ket and counted a field goal and Zerkei added a point on a free throw. Deßolt Yellow Jacket guard, was the outstanding star of the game. This boy scored two field goals and sank four foul goals in :ive attempts. Deßolt also put up a wonderful floor game and held his man-without a point during the entire ba.'tle. But credit must be given to the entire Yellow Jacket team. Everyman played smart ball and was in there fighting his head off all the time. J. Hill scored two baskets both of them coming at the only times during the battle that Decatur was trailing. Bender was leading scorer for "'P Tigers with two field goals ami the same number of fre’e throws. Ilesher Tiger center connected twice from the field, Blu'fton failed to show the power displayed when 'he Tigers played on the local floor but it must be said that Decatur also looked like a far different ball club than in their previous mee‘ings. Coach Curtis started Snedeker and J. Hill at the forward positions, Srtmepp at center and Deßolt and Zerkei as guards. Coach Templin! nnened with Shewalter and Bender forwards. Hesher, center and Warpock tfftd Rector, guards. First Quarter Bluffton took he first tipoff. DeBolt seated the first points of the game when he got the break on his man and dribbled in for a free throw. Bender tied up the ball game when ie sank a one-handed shot from the side of the floor.

LOUGHRANBEATS i CALIFORNIAN i . i New v o rk, Feb. 7—(U.R) —' Tommy 1 ; Lough ran ct Philadelphia, retired ’ igllt heavyweight champion, today was in line for a bout with Jack Sharkey as a result of an itnpres- ' dve victory over Max Baer, California's jabbering heavy weight. Lcugbran. short-ender of the 6-5. belting, won a unanimous decision oter the coast boy in Madison Square Garden last night. One of the smartest boxers ot 1 the past decade, Tommy's heavyweight campaign which began after he pave up his light heavyweight title, was interrupted temporarily when he received a stunnine knockout at Sharkey's hands in September, 1929. After an exj tended layoff Tommy has come up through the ranks of second : raters. Boxing writers said .that Loughran's bout with Baer was to decide if lie was to get a return shot at 1 Sharkey who lias been left out of the current championship picture. Sharkey has decided to remain ■Mtive, title fight or no, and it is expected he will have his first ' 'lout here next month. Loughran’s victory over Baer! was one-sided. He won 90 perl •flit of his points with his clever, tb>-ing If It jab. Baer was almost pitifully inept I ’gainst this, and his best efforts i 'o rush Tommy with wild swings ;>o head and body were deftly ■ blocked. Loughran scored almost ■ we damaging Mows but he broke ! Into Baer's mouth with almost monotonous frequency. II o i Indiana Wins Dual Meet From Purdue Bloomington. Ind., Feb. 7—(UP) —lndiana University won a dual indoor track meet from Purdue Uni versity here last night with ease, annexing all first places, and establishing one fieldhouse record. Hatfield clipped the 70-yard hurdle | record by running it in :06.6. Indiana won 67 points to 19 for Purdue. ’ Lenore Ulric Explains Famous “It” Girls | j New York. Feb. 7- (UP)—That . mysterious and much desired personal quality commonly known as i “It,” is not the exclusive property • of ultra-sophisticated or slinky lad I jies with a "manner.” • j According to Lenore Ulric, who 1 to her audiences is a "pagan lady ’ and distinguished so. her “It” parts this quality is the gift of abundantly healthy, sane and natural girls.
