pm - • '■ ■ SB Kickoff At 8! 000— Tile biggest crowd In Decatur’s' footbull history is anticipated to gather at Worthman Field tonight when the first night game Is played. 000- -- Installation of the lights was i completed Wednesday and tests taken both Wednesday and last night reveal that the field will he lighted as brilliantly as by day. — 000 ■ Even the weather man has shown cooperation with local school officials. Clear weather is promised for tonight, with that snap in the air which is welcome atmosphere to your true football fan. —oOo— Apparently al) that is needed to make the opening of night football a success in Decatur, is a victory for the Yellow Jackets over the Bluffton Tigers. —oOo— If memory serves correctly, the Jackets have defeated Bluffton in the last four meetings of the arch rivals. That being the case, the Tigers will be here with “blood in their eyes." —oOo— Bluffton will have the advantage of two games experience over Decatur tonight. The Tigers lost a tought battle to Fort Wayne Central, 7 to 0. but came back with a 20-13 triumph over the Warsaw eleven. —oOo— Reports from Bluffton are to the effect that two of the Tiger regulars may be unable to see much' action in tonight’s battle. These regulars, injured in last week’s < games, are Templin, quarterback, I and Higman, tackle. —oOo — The Yellow Jackets so far have escaped Injury, despite same! strenuous practice sessions under Coaches Andrews and Dorwin. Only the usual aches and pains have been evident. —oOo— The Jackets’ starting lineup is very much in the dark. Five regulars are available from last season’s conference championship team, but Coach Andrews is planning to shift some of these men from the positions held down last year. So. fans may be somewhat surprised when the Decatur eleven lines up for the opening kickoff at 8 o’clock tonight. —oOo — The tragic explosion in the show- ' er room at Purdue university, which yesterday claimed its second life, has met with universal sorrov. Two young men. of the ' highest type of American manhood. have been snuffed out on the verge of their life's work. Sym- ‘ pathies of all go out to the families of the victims, to the coaching staff and players on the Boilermaker eleven, who face a difficult task in carrying on in the face of such a tragedy. —oOo— This latest tragedy recalls to; older football fans another football tragedy of many years ago,: when a number of Purdue players FALL FASHIONS TO THE FORE! • t • Princess silhouette; * Directoire influence; Tunics SM Peplums; 3L ■. ■ • Velvets for elegance; dfiL* --.mH • Hollywood inspired.

GIANTS BOOST LEAGUE LEAD Scouted By Yankees, Giants Unleash Powerful Attack New York.Jßept 18. (U.P> Little Bobby Miller still Is minus a bicycle today and all because the N'»'w York Giants were a bunch of show offs who (touted the terrible Brook ! lyn jinx when the New York Yau ; kees came to scout them for that fast-approaching world series. Bobby’s father, coach Otto Mil ler of the Dodgers, promised his son the coveted two-wheeled ve- ! hide when and If the Brooklyn I dub made it four victories In a row. Eleven times this season the Dodgers have won three straight but each time the fourth victory , has eluded them. They went into I i yesterday's game with the Giants with three successive scalps under their belts but the result was no exception. The Terrymen crashed I 23 hits off their bats to down the Dodgers, 17 to 3. And those visiting Yankees certainly got an eyeful! Joe Di Mag gio, sensational rookie outfielder,! pitcher Johnny Broaca, third baseman Red Rolfe and coaches Earl Combs, Art Fletcher and John Schulte, took the subway ride out 1 to Ebbets field to look over their • probable rivals. After the Giants had pounded five Brooklyn pitch- ‘ ers for 18 hits in the first six innings, three of the Yankee callers ' made their departure. They had seen too much. Their rivalry with the Dodgers have brought heartaches to the Giants in the past but it has put plenty of dollars in the bankrolls of the two clubs. To date this season, nearly 290,000 fans have jammed the turnstiles for Brook lyn-New York games which is an average of more than 16,000 per contest. Yesterday’s game drew 25,000. The Giant players right now, however, are more interested in , world series dollars than in box office receipts. Their demonstra
