Commodore gym. 000 This week brings one of the heaviest schedules of the season to Adams county basketball fans. Both Decatur teams are scneduled to play twice and all other county teams, with the exception of Kirkland. will play Friday night. 000 The Yellow Jackets open the week’s card Tuesday night, with tile Hartford City Airdales, 1934 conference champions and Fort Wayne regional winners, appearing here. Hartford City is not as strong as last year but the Airdales are improving rapidly and promise to give the Jackets plenty of competition. 000 The Commodores face another tough foe on the local floor Wednesday night, with St. Mary’s of Anderson furnishing the opposition. St. Mary's has defeated the Commodores twice and the locals will be fighting for revenge. Anderson defeated Decatur in the H-A-R-D tourney. 27 to 21 and at Anderson. 25 to 18. o()o Friday night both local high school teams will see action. The Yellow Jackets will be hosts to ♦bo J-fferson township Warriors pt Inral «rvvn • ’id t*»o Comm, dorts will journey to Elmhurst in Allen county. 000 The most outstanding game for the county teams this week is set for Friday night, when the B erne Bears travel to Bluffton to do battle with the Tigers. This should draw wide attention as the teams appear evenly matched and also are the favorites in the sectional tourney which will be held at Bluffton March 1 and 2. 000 Decatur’s teams didn’t fare so well in battle with their arch

I Trailing far behind during the en- [ tire first three periods, the Yel- , low Jackets threw a real scare e into the Tigers with a brilliant I, rally which closed Bluffton's margin to three points and nearly pulled the ball game out of the 1 j fire. 000 4 : The Commodores, reversing the procedure of the Jackets, started 1 j w ith a rush Saturday, at one time ’ dding an 8-1 lead, but wilted j during the last three periods, parI ticularly in the fourth quarter, to 1 i finish 14 points in arrears.

Fourth Week Indianapolis. Feb. 4— (U.PJ ~ Members of the Indiana legislature convene,l today for their ' fourth full week today facing j many of the most important issues ; of the session. | A revised state NBA bill and the biennial budget are scheduled to come up in the house of representatives. Senate members are expected ,o be confronted with a second state police bill and a measure setting up the administration’s centralized public welfare department. The slate recovery measure j i took on added importance after J Gov. Paul V. McNutt announced i that he planned to conduct an j investigation into how certain sections were amended by the ' i house federal relations committee. The budget bill will provide for a $47,000,000 appropriation for 1935 and 1936. The figure is $2,000,000 more than the amount appropriated for the 1933-34 biennium. The increase is needed for ‘ new Buildings and improvements at state institutions. Many senators, dissatisfied with the state police measure introduced by Sen. Henry F. Schricker. D.. Knox, last week, have prepar 'd a substitute bill which they claim provides a model system. Schricker's bill, now In judiciary B committee, would set up a bi- ’| partisan board to control all state police affairs, including the ap- ' pointment and dismissal of a superintendent and other officers of the department. The second measure would continue the present department i plan, but would institute a merit system. All members of the de- , oartment, including the superintendent. would be appointed after 5 competitive examination and removed onlv after a public hearing. The public welfare bill, which would coordinate ell penal, relief and probation diVisions under one 1 department, will be strictly an administration measure.
