! anced offenses in the middle west, an offense that has not failed to I scbre in any fume this season and i held the Wolverines even in the! matter of tone idowns. Purdue's 1 scouts have reported that the Hawkeyes are capable of upsetting any j I team in the conference, and will | I present a forward wall as tough as i any defensive combination the | ■rambling Boilermaker backs have i i stacked up against all season. Pick Crayne and Joe Laws, the mainstays of the Hawkeye power, attack, are expected to provide u severe test of the voureagous Boil- ! ;eimaker line that turned in a bril-! liant performance in effectively I ■squelching all of Notre Dame's! touchdown threats with an impenetrable defense. Although the Notre Itatnr strug-, 1 gle was a gruelling affair, the' ' Boilermaker squad came through . i the battle in good physical condi-1 tion, and Coach Noble Kizer ex-; pevte to be able to start his colorful "dozen treat” backfield intact, with Duane Purvis and Jim Carter at halfbacks; Fred Hecker at fullback. and Paul Pardonner. at quarterback. He also expects to maintain the same forward wall alignment that reached the heights against NotreI Dame, with Lowerl and Duggins at [ends; (’apt. Fehring and Ungers al I ; tackles; Rebel and Huggins at ; guards, and Skoronski at center. -1 1 * iS?“S * • trL -J by SEASON GREETINGS! —oOo — With the basketball season practically upon us here in Decatur, we I feel 'tis high time to take the old, column out of the mothballs for an-1 I other season of thrills, spills and ■ upsets. —oOo — While the teams of the county ; schools have been at it for some: ■ three or four weeks. Decatur’s two! I teams start the season for local I i fans this week. —oOo— Coach Shorty Laurent's Commo- ■ dores will pry off the lid here tomorrow night (Thursday), meeting ■ the St. Andrew's of Richmond quin- j tet'on the local floor. —oOo— — The following night, (Friday). I Coach Herb Curtis will trot (or | should we say. fly?) his Yellow Jackets out on the hardwood ' ajgalust the New Haven Bull dogs. —oOo — Don’t ask us who’ll win. We won't tell you. because we don't want to spoil all your fun. We won’t even tell you if Notre Dame will score another point this season. —oOo— Seriously speaking, both Decatur coaches have a wealth of experienced material available from last season's squads. In fact, our guess i is that it will be a tough job to ! pick a starting five at either school ; and for the first three or four games. | A little bird tells us that Shorty's task of picking his starting team; has been simplified by the failure | of several of his boys to study their I lessons adequately, thereby making ! i them ineligible for the first couple |of games. Haven’t heard of any ; ! similar difficulties at the Curtis camp. --000— Both coaches have seven lett termen who saw experience last year but reports from both camps indicate some of these experienced men may have seme difficulty in retaining their places over newcomers. ■ —oOo — Members of the Commodore! squad held an election to name aj captain for the squad this week. The votes showed a dead heat between Braden and Murphy, last year’s regulars, and as a result the two Irishmen will act as co-cap-tains. —oOo— In addition to the two Decatur teams, all Adams county schools,! with the exception of Jefferson, will see actipn this week. Friday night's schedule: Rockcreek, Wells county at Berne; Geneva at Kirkland; Pleasant Mills at Hartford and Monroe at Monmouth.
