D/ISKEmWL Two great rivals, both boasting | splendid records for the season, i will tangle at the Catholic gym-, uasium here tonight, when the Decatur Commodores entertain St. I John’s of Delpnos. —olio - Each team has lost only one game this season. With memories of past nard tougnt contests between quintets of the two schools, the local gym should be filled for the game tonight, despite bad weather. —olio — Delphos has lost only one game, <uat to catuolic Central oi unua ai Lima. St. John s was handivappea in this game by injuries to both the regular and suostltute I centers. Decatur's only defeat was : to Catholic Central of Hammond, after a nard roau trip. Add another to tue long list of almost unoelievaole results in Indiana basketoall. I-ast night the .joum Side Arcners upset tue powerful Tigers of Fort Wayne Cental, 29 to 25. It was Sonin b“e's urst victory in tne last seven starts, and Central's first loss in 12 games. Central had scored Vickies over the Decatur Yellow uackeis. Berne. Bluttton. and Hart.ora City in its long list of triumphs. —oOo — Basketbawl failed to give the Berne Bears credit for one of the victories scored by the Stars las. week. Tne weekly standing of Adams county quintets. puolisned Monoay. credited Berne with 11 victories and one defeat, whereas the Bears have won 12 contests. We beg pardon, Bears. —oOo--And speaking of Berne, the Bears suffered an additional jolt m practice Monday evening wnen uerorne Steiner, star floor guard, sustained a sprained ankle. Steiner may be able to play against South Side this week, but Bob uro, regular center, injured in Saturday’s tilt against Central Caih-1 olic, will be out two weeks or longer. —QUO — Strange how misfortune comes in bunches 711 such a fashion. Tne Bears rank among the toughest earns in the state, with only one jss marring their record, and losag not only two veteran regulars, ul bom of tnem mainsprings of ae offense and defense, is a tough uiow to Coach Erne, tue Bears and the Berne fans. Our sympathy goes to the Bears, along with our wishes for the speedy recovery of both Dro and Steiner. —oOo — After many weeks of grinding out this column thrice weekly, our efforts have been rewarded. Believe it or not, a contribution has been received. Here goes: “The ‘Temple of Wisdom.’ an organization of local basketball enthusiasts, which meets upon fitting and proper occasions, has discussed a number of problems that have ~7aen from time to time in games of this section. One of the problems is as follows: a boy was removed from the floor via th., personal foul route and was sitting on the bench at one end of the floor. His opponents gained possession of the ball and passed it to a teammate who had a clear route to the basket. The boy who had fouled out of the game rushed to the floor and stopped the offensive thrust. What shall be the
