Yellow Jackets Defeat Central Catholic Saturday, 61
DECATUR WINS OPENING GAME AT FT. WAYNE Eady's Touchdown In Third Quarter Provides Winning Margin The Decatur Yellow Jackets, playing their first game of the seasou, ripped and tore their way ta a sparkling 6-0 victory over the highly touted Central Catholic team at the South Side stadium in Fort Wayne Saturday afternoon. Eady scored the lone touchdown of the game in the middle of the third quarter. With the Kurt Wayne school heavy favorites to capture the season's opener. Decatur tore into the Iriwli and outplayed them in practically every department of the game, scoring a well-deserved victory to open the 1932 season. A Decatur pass from Buffenbarger to Eady, good for a net gain of 2<t yeards. placed the ball in scoring position near the middle of the third quarter. On a line smash. Buffenbarger carried the ball over, but. the pigskin was called back to the one-foot line when Buffenbarger fell on one knee at that point. On the next play. Eady hit the line for the touchdown. An attempted line plunge lor the extra point was Stopped. Central Catholic threatened the Decatur goal line only once during the game. With time rapidly expiring in the final period, the Irish, in a desperate attempt to score, tossed forward passes on practically every play. Two of these con ' nected and placed the ball about i six yards from the final chalk mark Just before the final gun fired. , The Yellow Jackets played through the entire game with only ! one substitution. Butler replacing Scheiman at a guard position. Central Catholic made numerous substitutions in an effort to find a combination that could click against Decatur. Although no detailed figures were • kept. Decatur score probably a third more first down than their oppon-. ents. The Yellow Jackets also handled the ball more cleanly than their opponents, Decatur losing the ball twice on fumbles, while Central Catholic lost possession three times and fumbled several other times but recovered themselves. The Irish also lost considerable ground on penalties, particularly for the backfield in motion. Decatur was penalized only once, when a lineman was caught holding. nullifying a 30-yard run by Luffenbarger, the outstanding offensive play of the game. For a practically green, inexper- ■ fenced team, the Yellow Jackets! showed fine possibilities Saturday.) with iu> players being particularly ; outstanding. Buffenbarger and Eady I were the most consistent ground gainers <for the locals, while Murray, C. V. halfback, showed up well for the Irish. Decatur will travel to Auburn Saturday for the second game of the season. Zeke Young is expected to have another tough team this season, as he has a large number of veterans remaining from his 1931 squad. Lineup and summary: Decatur Central Catholic Feasel LE Talarico

YANKEES NEED TWO VICTORIES May Clinch American League Pennant by Victories Today, Tuesday New York. Sept. 12—H.R) —The; New York Yankees can move out of Cleveland tomorrow night' American League champions forj 1932 by winning their two remain-1 ing games from the Cleveland Indians. The Yanks could have clinched the pennant with a victory today it they hadn't started oft their three-game series yesterday against the Indians by losing, 5-4. Yesterday Wes Ferrell gave the Yanks eight hits but functioned so well in the pinches and at bat that the New Yorkers were unable to win. He won his own game in the sixth with a single that scored what later proved to lie the win- | ning run. Meanwhile the Senators, pen-] ] nant contenders as long as the : Yanks don't win those two re- , mainlng games, crept up on the ] second-place Athletics by taking , both ends of a double-header from I Chicago. 2-1 and 9-4. The Athletics won their game i from the Tigers. 5-4, behind mastI erful pitching by ''Rube" Walberg, i who held the Tigers to five hits, j Jimmy Foxx hit his 52nd home run l of the season. Boston and St. Louis split a double-header, the Browns taking the first. 7-1. and the Red Sox the ' second, 8-3.

I Eighty per cent of the field will find J themselves thinking of what might have been as they trudge around the Baltimore Country Club course as part of the gallery. Let’s look over some of the young sters who will be striving for the classic crown today There’s Gus Moreland, youthful Texan, w-ho has been making golf history these last few months Moreland is fresh from victory in the Western Amateur Championship, staged over the Rockland Country Club course Gus has developed the winning habit and who is to say that he won’t continue it in this ultimate in amateur golf tourneys? Then there's the spectacular Charley Seaver, of Los Angeles, member of the Walker Cup Team, and rated as one of the best of the younger amateurs In the Western Amateur Seaver fell before the wizardry of Moreland, but not until he had turned in the most spectacular round of the tournament a 66. 1 It happened in Seaver's match with
jby whipping Brooklyn. 3-1. Pittsburgh didn't play. The Boston Braves pulled up to! within a game and a half of the . idle fourth-place Phillies by taking a double-header for Cincin-! ! nati. In the first the Braves nicked ' Benton and Rixey for 11 hits Io win 13-3, while in the second eight hits off Kolp and Frey enabled them to score a 10-1 victory. The Giants kept within half a

The ■ blond titan, member of the Stan- , ford football team, will answer the . call of the gridiron after this tour nament and he may go back to Los Angeles with the Amateur Crown And then we have boyish Johnny 1-ehman. of Chicago, who captured the qualifying medal in the Western amateur with brilliant rounds of 66 and 71 for a record total of 137. It was an amazing exhibition and coupled with Johnny’s past per formances rates him a splendid chance to win the amateur classic. There you have just three of the new guard.
