Decatur. I — —o ■W? 'bi * fSI KW by Congratulations. Commodores. —oOo — To make the week-end complete. we want a Yellow Jacket victors ver the New Haven Bull tonight. Herb Curtis' boys w ill make their first start of the season tonight.' meeting New Haven on the local; floor. The Yellow Jackets have a number of experienced men avail-, able and should have a strong team this season. —O()O; — New Haven will have the edge in game experience foniglit. having' played several games and showing considerable power. The Bull Dogs, have had consistently strong teams | • for a number of years and will provide plenty of opposition for the Yellow Jackets tonight. From the writer's viewpoint, the most impressive part of the Commodores' shewing last night was the fight and scrap shown by the boys throughout the game. Even after piling up a safe lead.' the locals kept up their fire, along | with a spirited chatter, and kept , driving away at the basket. The j j let-up in the final minutes of the | game can be traced to the long lead . established and the fact that the : boys can't be expected to go at top speed for a full game so early in the season. i —oOo — The Commodore reserves also started the season with a flourish, downing the Pleasant Mills varsity in the preliminary game last night. 17 to 12. —oOo— Gunnar Elliott, well-known Fort Wayne official and radio announcer, tooted the whistle last night. Gunnar was bemoaning the fact that he has to work the Frankfort-Michi-gantown game at Frankfort tonight. Remember. Michigantown upset the Hot Dogs in the sectional tourney last spring. Last night was Gunnar's first game. The main thing we noticed about Elliott was his sylph-like figure, in comparison j to former years. —oOo — Cash Keller, coach of the St. ; Mary's. Huntington. team, was > i among the spectators last, night. I I Cash was sympathizing with him-1 (self about having such a poor team ithis year. He even went so far as; Ito tell us Anderson beat him Wednesday by 12 points. However, the' Huntington paper apparently refuses to back up Cash in his mis- ! leading propaganda, as St. Mary's whipped Anderson. 29-17. o Stay Os Execution Is Granted Killer Indianapolis, Ind..
