Wemwi i r w tn * Tonight is the big night of the season for Decatur Commodore fans, with the Commies tackling the Irish from Central Catholic of Fori Wayne on the local floor. —oOo Th" Commodores, with a perfect record of nine victories without a defeat this season, uro intent on extending their string to 10 con- . secutive triumphs tonight. Incidentally, the local la<ls are also -i bent on revenge for the throe de- > feats suffered from Central Cathi olic last season, twice In reguiffTl schedule contests and the third time in the opening round of the I state Catholic tourney. . I - • oOo — Central Catholic, starting slowly this year as a result of the loss of practically the entire first team because of graduation, showed plenty of latent power last week by giving Catr.edral of Indianapolis a real scare before dropping a 27-26 battle.

Tne Com- , modores are attracting suue-wiue i recognition as a result of their 'nine successive victories this season thus far and are the favorites to make it 10 in a row tonignt when they take on ventral CathI olic of tuts city at Decatur. The 1 Yellow Jackets displayed a rej versa! in form last week-end and ■ ■ displayed more drive and punch in I I the two games they played than | |at any other time of the season. I Tne jackets staged a fierce battle I Friday night herore losing to tne ' strong Bluffon Tigers’ by one point, and then came back on Saturday to trounce Pennvme, Hamuru Cuy I sectional winner last year, by 11 I points. Tne jackets appear to i have hit the stride expected of I them earlier in the season and will ■ be hard to beaet from here on in.” —oOo —■ The Decatur Yellow Jackets, having shown improvement in i H battles last week against Bluffton and Pennville, face two northeastern Indiana conference opponents this week. —oOo— Friday night the Auburn Red i Devils will play on the Jackets'' floor. Auburn has dropped conference tilts to Central and South Side but showed plenty of scoring power in both games.

Auburn coach, perform. —oOo— Saturday night the Jackets will travel to Fort Wayne to meet the South Side Archers. The Fort ■ Wayne five lost most of last year's squad but has shown improvement
