skittles. The first football team of the local school was organised in the ‘■gay nineties”. Parents and tillaens of th> Decatur team were not then convinced that it was a good wholesome game, deserving of the after school hours of the players. To play an out of town game meant an ail day trip. The team would get up early in the morning and leave for Van Wert. Hunting- | ton. Bluffton, Fort Wayne. Portland or any of the schools in a five and a three seat rig rented by Untie Holthouse. It would take until game time to reach the scene of the hattie. It was generally early In the morning .before the team and the fans r<I turned to the city. i The members of the team made: their own suits, padding them heav | ! ily. It was customary to dress in . L home-made white canvas jersey and suit laced tightly to the body.l This suit was so slippery that I 'many a tackler lot a runner slide, | through his fingers. These were in the days of the I dying wedge and heavy power. jOlavs Thee forewaid pass was I • illegal, it being necessary to pass , [toward offense’s goal line if at all The general principles of the tgame have not changed since. Th- early teams were trulvj j 'coachless wonders ' for no school [ board then would be guilty of th-> | ; -waste" of hiring an experienced ■ director for the game

ATTORNEYS SAY SWINDLE GANG IS DISCOVERED cpnxrrTNUFn f-rom psoh ovnci organized under a new management. Sanders and Lindquist were appointed at that time. Sanders confessed, according to Thompson and Healy, that he plotted with Karatz and others to buy a controlling interest in the insurance company and in the Indianapolis hanks with money obtained by cashing spurious checks on the insurance company. They induced Van Derek, clerk in I the Amalgamated bank, to help , them. They had agreed to pay $400,006 for the company, and made a $25,000 first payment. i After gaining control of the i company, according to Thompson and Healy, Sanders and his associates planned to flood the portfolios of the concern with stolen bonds, which they hoped to buy from criminals at 10 and 15 cents on the dollar, selling them to the company at face value. The Indianapolis banks were to be used to further the stolen bond scheme. The alleged plot was revealed when Van Derek, urged by his fiancee, walked into police headquarters and told as much as he knew. Three fraudulent checks i already had been cashed at the bank without detection, even though a state bank examiner checked its records after the first theft.
