Yellow Jackets Beat Bluffton In Final Game, fil
DECATUR TEAM DEFEATS ARCH RIVALS FRIDAY Victory Marks Undefeated Season For Decatur Yellow Jackets Decatur's Yellow Jackets topped off an undefeated season Friday afternoon with a sterling 6-0 victory over their arch rivals, the Tigers from Bluffton. -Red" Schultz, quarterback of the Decatur eleven, kicked in with a thrilling 80-yard return of a Bluffton punt early in the second quarter for the only touchdown of the annual battle The snarl of the Tigers, who, iu four games this season, had piled up more than 30 points against each of four hapless opponents, was definitely stilled. And the claws of these same Tigers, sharp ened on the hacks of these foes over whom they had trod so ruthlessly, were sadly dulled when the final gun cracked.
In the words of the one and only Dizzy Dean—"we twisted the Tigers' tail”—and what tail twist, eps the Yellow Jackets proved themselves to be yesterday. But to return to the Yellow Jackets undefeated season. Battling through eight games—and. incidentally, one of the tough- , eat schedules ever confronting a Decatur team— the Yellow Jackets emerged without a defeat to mar their record. Six victories and two scoreless ties! Heading the list of accomplishments most Im- recorded the bitter gall heaped upon the Fort Wayne schools. Four times the, different teams from the “big town” hurled themselves desperately against the stubborn Yellow Jacket eleven As many times they were thrust backward in confusion. First in the parade came the ' Irish of Central Catholic. The Irish felt the sling of the Jackets to the tune of a 7-6 defeat. Then the proud Archers of South Side. These Archers could do no better than gain a scoreless tie. Next came Murray Mendenhall and his Central Tigers. As was the case yesterday, these Tigers were effectively muffled and the result was another 0-0 battle.

out batt led the North Side Redskins. forcing the warriors to bite the dust by a 13-12 count. Other victories scored by the 'Yellow Jackets were from Auburn, iGarrett, Portland, and Bluffton. Not only d'd the Jackets march 'through a tough schedule undefeatled. they also assured themselves lof at least a tie for the northeastern Indiana conference title. The 'only other undefeated team in the ‘conference is South Side, who still must meet North Side and Central, either one of whom is | very likely to prove a stumbling block to the Archer’s titular aspirations. Credit for the Yellow Jackets' impressive showing this season must deservedly go to Hugh Andrews. who. in his first season as coach, turned out the team whi h played this difficult schedule without a defeat, the first in Decatur's i history. Thrills C r owd Schultz provided the big thrill 'of the contest in that second quart-i er with his 80-yard mad dash to the pay-off line. Gathering tip a Bluffton punt on 1 his own 20_yard line. “Red" wrigg- ‘ led away from the Tigers’ ends, j down fast to cover the kick, and ' then charged up the southern side- . j line.
Shortly after the redhead passed , midfield, the rest of the Decatur eleven formed interference for the Jacket quarterback In the last! few yards only the safety man stood between Schultz and that ' promised land. But ' Red'' side-1 stepped the last man ami raced ' across the goal line for the winning markers. An attempted line plunge by I Butler for the extra point was ; stopped by the Bluffton forward I wall. But that extra point didn’t I (seem to matter. Outside of the touchdown dash. ; neither team threatened to score ! ,at any time during the game. Only once was the Decatur goal | ’ line endangered. A Bluffton went out of bounds at the 12 yard line i and on the next play Walther o.me hack with a long punt whi.h carried the ball out of danger. Picking the stars out of the ball ' game is a tough proposition, but I Schultz and Butler featured on the offense for Decatur, whil- Con- I rad was plenty tough in the line ’on both offense and defense- For ■the Tigers. Michaels was the best ■ ground gainer, with Capt. Lew Smith backing up the Bluffton line with some great defensive play. Decatur Bluffton Smith LE Fishbaugli j Barker LT Decker ( Worthman LG .
