All we want is victor ies over Auburn and St. Rose ol Lima tonight, and two victories for the Yellow Jackets tomorrow Not much, but we might as well ; ask for a lot while we're asking. 000 Two preliminaries will be played before the feature clash tonight between the Commodores and St. Rose of

As a second preliminary, at 7:30 o'clock, the Commodore alumni will meet the Monmouth Rockets, who I have made an excellent record in independent ranks this season. 000 ’ The Decatur Yellow Jackets are ' tackling a tough outfit tonight when they meet the Auburn Red Devils at Auburn. Zeke Young 1 probably has developed the best | ball club he has ever had at Auburn this season, and the Red ' Devils have been pretty tough for ' the past two or three years. 000 The outstanding star on the Auburn team is Dave Williams, tall, left-handed center. Williams has been making life miserable for the opposition this season, scoring from 10 to 20 points practically every ball game, 000 Tomorrow Decatur fans will I have the opportunity to see two | of the best centers in the northI ern section of the state. These ' men are Williams, mentioned above, and L. Holbrook, star of the Kendallville Comets. Holbrook is plenty tough, and some coaches and critics rate him as a more effective team player than Wil Hams Pretty fair rating, if you
