WWI Decatur Cloverleafs trimmed mutfton Wednesday night at BluffL>n to stay in first place in Um Wabash Valley ind pendent net league. Decatur has an important game here Friday night with Ossian, only other team in the league which has a chance to win or tie for first place Decatur defeated Ossian at Ossian rome time ago, but the Wells coun--7 team has been strengthvoed! since then. Tile Cloverleafs went into the had in the first half and held it though th- mime, which incidental'v was a rough affair. Don t forget the charity program ' might and be a GOOD FELLOW. For the last several years high school basketball in Decatur, at both seho Is, has been going full blast. This year both teama have suffered several defeats—That’s not a sign tho’ that the boys aren't trying and it’s not a sign that the teams won't be going strong in the spring. The Commodores have all new players hut one and they've mad a great stand in every game with a single exception. Ove at tho Yellow Jack t cam]), Coach Curtis has a completely new aggregation—and every player has being working hard and doing his best. It's our opinion that while the Jack ts are starting slow—they’ll

finish stronger than the team of last year. 1 he Commodores are away from home Friday night—They journey to Delphos for a game with St. Johns—Ought to be a good game. Ths Curtismen go to Noyth Side at l‘O: t Wayne. The Redskins'have a great t,eam this year, but it’s our guess they'll have a battle on their hands Friday night. Jefferson comes to Kirkland Friday night—and the Bryanmen a.e fat ing a job—Olen Marsh has built a team and a system at Jeff and he s taking advantage this season with a lot of wins. Friday night the Cloverleafs play Ossian Merchants here in what probably will decide the first half championship of the Wabash Valley league. Os course, we’re picking the CLOVERLEAFS Let’s end the old year right by beating DELPHOS and NORTH SIDE. Harve.aggard’s Eagles meet the L - Ootta team of Noble County tomorrow night at Monmouth. Harve has arranged a preliminary between his reserves. o Pitt Trims I. U. Bloomington. Ind., Dee. 17.—(U.P.) — Pittsburgh University’s basketball team broke even in its contests with middlewest schools last night when it defeated Indiana 29 to 24 in an overtime game. The score at the end of the regulation ' game was 23 all. Indiana led 12 to ■ 10 at the half. Pittsburgh dropped the first contest of its 1931 tour to Wisconsin, 29 to 30 Tuesday night. H. P. DAVISON STATES MONEY NOT ON HAND CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) the debt funding agreement whereby the debts may be paid in . United States bonds. •

After Davison had told the cotti- | mittee that foreign nations kept ■ balances all the time with the ‘ Morgan company. Rep. Rankin, i Dem., Miss., questioned him. “If the British government had ailed the Morgan firm and asked | them to make The payment, wouldn't It have been done?” Rankin asked. I | "Yes,? Davison replied. “Ail that would have lien I necessary would be for the British i government to call you up and I instruct you to pay, wouldn't it?” Rankin asked. "Assuming they had the money on deposit," Davison said. “But the financial standing of the British government is such that you would have paid it anyhow ?” Davison demurred at this question. “I came prepared to answer one question.” he replied, "and I i think I have answered it fairly ■ categorically. I received the summons only at six o'clock last night.” • f.frTownTalk Mr. and Mrs. .lames Eiberson : visited in Fort Wayne Wednesday ' afternoon.

CLOVERLEAFS i TIGHTEN LEAD Decatur Cloverleafs, leaders in I , the Wabash Valley independent j basketball l<?agu?, tightened their , hold on first place Wednesday night . at Bluffton when they sent a volley of field goals through the bucket for a 43-20 win over Bluffton, The Parlor City quintet previous!!y had beaten Decatur here by a i one-point margin, but was unable I to stop the home stretch drive for the title which the local team started this week.
