AIRDALES WIN OVER DECATUR IN NET SCRAP Hartford City Team Is Easy Winner Over Yellow Jackets Friday Decatur high school Yellow Jackets played hashful hosts to the Hartford City Airdales here Friday night and very politely permitted the visitors to do anything they desired to make their evening a success. The Hartford City netmen administered to De-1 catur one of its worst lacings in the last few years and won the basketball tfficounter by a count ! of 3112. The Airdales started early to g ther tn points and were ahead from the very start of the game. I The Yellow Jackets were unableto stkrt a rally at any time and j played a listless type of basket-1 ball, minus driving power, fight.' punch or speed In the preliminary, Decatur Reserves made a desperate effort tostem' the tide of a heavier Hartford City reserve aggregation but fell 1 victims to the Visitors' attack by( a score of 25-12. In the main go. which turned• into a near comedy, with the of- ; ficials Bruff Cleary and Gunnar El-1 Bott joining in by calling a lot of funny fouls on both teams, the i Airda'es took an early lead and at j naif time were ahead. 18-5. Th° Jackets tried on several oc-1 casions to stop the fast breaking offense of the visitors, but there always seemed to be a man loose ' y, under the basket. Hartford City has one of the; finest teams in this part of the state and has won five games out of five starts this season. The vic- 1 tory last night, at least partly, avenged the defeat which Decatur handed the Airdales (same team) ’ at the regional tourney at Fort; Wayne last spring. Without detracting the least bit! from the brilliant playing of the visitors, it can truthfully be said that the Yellow Jackets are capable es playing lots better basketball than they did play last night. No alibis can be offered, but every De-; atur player has turned in a lot ■ better game. The game was one of those things ] which is liable to happen to any I basl etba'l team, and in the middle oi the second halt wnen defeat was ' apparent, and when most players i would absolutely surrender, the: ; Jackets were still trying in vain. to stem the tide. They'll start Hitt-1 ins one of these days. Lineup and summary: Bte-atur (12) FG FT TP Buffenbarger. f. ...... 1 3 51 Cowan, f. 0 0 0 Strickler, f. .00 0 i Eady, c. 1 2 4 Hill. g. .011!

States' and Britain can have “a! i real meeing together —if both sides I ican put themselves in the shoes of) I the. other." MacDonald said Britain was mak- ' ling a rational discussion of her] lease. “I deprecate passionate con Itroversy on either side of the Atlantic.’ he said. "America has a] I lolitieal situation and we have an] economic situation. We asked no 'cancellation, we asked no reduc-| i tion. "We asked nothing but that the debt payment. December 15, might I be postponed while there is an opportunity for exchange of views on I the general situation. We believe | this would te good business, for j everybody.

THE youngest man ever to manage a big league baseball club —Joe Cronin, new leader of .Te Senators—is locking forward eagerly to his first season as Washington's pilot. J ?e, who is just 26 years old and is generally conceded to be the best of modern shortstops, was named by Clark Griffith to succeed the Senator’s former manager, Walter Johnson, shortly after the 1932 season was ended. Now, to manage the Washington Senators, with an exacting critic like Clark Griffith as your boss, is assuredly no easy task fcr the most experienced of baseball men; and for a young man of Cronin’s age. without any managerial experience, it is a very tougn assignment. Cronin isn't worrying about the troubles which inevitably accom-

Howard Held, 19. of Hinton, la., won third. Miss Leake scored 542 points out of a possible 600. Moore score 521 and Held 516. The Minnesota team of three scored 1.472 points out of a'possible 1,800.

Drummond said he registered at the hotel at 7 a. m. Thursday. "That evening I went to a res taurant and ate so much turkey tha when I got to my room that night I had to take off my money belt which I always wore,’’ the rancher said. “I laid this out on a little stand used for suitcases and went to sleep. When I woke up the belt and money were gone.” Authorities at Tulsa telegraphed, iln answer to queries, that Drummond owns a 35,000 acre ranch in l Osage county, that he paid $7550,1000 for the ranch, that he is married and has an 11-year-old daughter. and that it is well known in his county that he frequently carries large sums of money. The rancher told police he left Oklahoma with the intention of making "a big deal” in Pittsburgh He said he obtained SIO,OOO from the Kansas City Fidelity Trust and Savings Bank enroute and made stop® |ti St Lotlie end Cleveland Police suspected that because- it was known that Drummond often carried much money and because he had done so much traveling he might have been swindled instead

pany a managerial job, however. Joe has plenty of confidence in his ability to make good and he is raring to go. Just now he is getting into condition for the tough siege ahead, and is trying to get in the best shape possible in order to withstand successfully the double strain of being a player-manager. Cronin is very ambitious and has plenty of fighting spirit. They do say that last season he had a squabble with big Al Simmons, the former Philadelphia outfielder now with Chicago, and Fighting Joe chased Simmons to the tench offering to take him on in a scrap. Big Simmons is said to have refused to engage in a fisticuffing party with Joseph, however. Although Cronin has proved himself to be a fighter on the ball field, Joe says he will be an easy boss

of rohhed. They suggested this to him. “If that mob got the money, for'get it.” he answered, "for I'll get lit back better than you will.” Questioned further, he recalled that throughout hrs trip several men had reappeared in his vicinity with such regularity that it was possible they were following him. ' j o DRASTIC CUTS ARE EXPECTED ' CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE "A sales tax of one per cent, as I I have said many times before. I would net $306,000,000 in reve-i nue.” he said. “A moderate sales I I tax like that would be a big help in balancing the budget—and nobody would know it had happened. It would be practically painless.” ——o Carloadings Show Gain Washington, Nov. 26 —(UP) — iCirloadings of revenue freight In-' .creased 38.768 cars during the' w ek of Nov 19 the American Railway Association reported today.

Harry U. Leslie has invited i i Governor-elect Paul V. McNutt to : ' a conference on poor relief at the I state house Nov. 29. Dr. John H. Hewitt, secretary of I the state unemployment relief com■i mission, will be present. Gov. Leslie said he called the i conference in the belief that poor ’ relief will be one of the most pressing problems his successor will confront. He said the unemployment relief commission should be perpetuated under the new adminis- 1 'fratlon "The commission is well organlined and has done a wonderful 'work at a low expensd." explained i Leslie. "Our commission doesn't cost'

when he takes over the managerial reins next year. He intends to follow the methods of Joe McCarthy, famed Yankee pilot, and will put the men on their honor to keep in shape, doing away with spying or curfew methods. He expects to inject plenty of fighting spirit and enthusiasm into the team. His own words are: “I expect ,o get the club on its toes, and keep it there all next season.” Cronin’s appointment as manager of the Senators increases the number of playing managers in the big leagues to five. The others are Marty McManus, of the Boston Red Sox; Lew fonseca. White Sox pilot; Bill Terry, leader of the Giants and "Cholly” Grimm, man ager of (sh-h—keep it dark) the Chicago Cubs.
