Decatur Basketball Teams To Open SeasoJ

COMMIES OPEN HOME SEASON, JACKETS AWAY Commodores Play Lima Team Here; Yellow Jackets At Portland Decatur's two high school basketball teams will launch the 193637 season Friday night of this i week, with one giune in this city | and one on the road. The Commodores, with an en-! tirely new team, will open the home season Friday, meeting St. John's of Lima, Ohio. The Yellow Jackets, just out of football togs, will take to the road Friday night, meeting the Portland ranthers at Portland. Coach George laturent is facing an extremely difficult task with the Commodores this season. Not a regular remains from last year's team, one of the best Catholic teams in the state, and an entirely new outfit must be put together for this season. Coach Hugh Andrews will also be forced to build an almost entirely new team. Rob Worthman is the only regular remaining from the 1935-36 Yellow Jacket squad. However, Hurst and Brodbeck saw a great deal of service i and ranked as near regulars through most of the season. Twenty-one games are on the season schedule for the Commo-1 dores, and 19 for the Yellow Jac-! kets. The first home tilt for the Yel-1 low Jackets will be next week, the ! New Haven Bulldogs playing on the local floor Friday night. No-' vember 20. Each of the Decatur teams will play four games this month, with six of these contests to be engaged in this city. Considerable interest has been aroused locally in the CommodoreHuntington Catholic clash, to be played at the Commodore gym next Tuesday night, November 17. Bud Hain, last yeah a regular on the Commodore quintet, is now living in Huntington and is a member of the Huntington squad.

However, they are slated to meet Monroe Friday night at the Berne auditorium. o— — • — - — ■■■ ♦ Decatur Bowling League Results • — « MINOR LEAGUE Riverside Garage Zelt 145 166 167 Ellsworth ... 150 118 124 Miller 176 157 175 Cherry 161 149 140 Mutschler 171 179 213 Handicap 22 22 22 Totalß2s 791 8401 General Electric Brown 147 193 143; E.

WILDCATS ARE FAVORITES FOR NATIONAL TITLE Northwestern Has Only Michigan And Notre Dame In Path Chicago, Nov. 11. — (U.R) —The Northwestern Wildcats are prowling the path to the mythical national gridiron title, but lurking lahead are two football foes with re- | venge in their hearts — Michigan and Notre- Dame. Sooner or later every team gets a chance to atone for a heart-break-ing football defeat. Michigan has waited 11 years to get its chance at Northwestern. Notre Dame has waited but one. The luck of the 1936 schedule ‘ has exactly reversed the positions of Northwestern and Michigan as they met in combat at Soldier Field hack in 1925. Then Michigan. with its great forward passing combination of Benny Friedman and Benny Oosterbaan, had one of the nation's greatest teams and came to Chicago with an unbeaten. untied record. Northwestj ern had been beaten by Chicago | ' and Tulane. I Northwestern battled through ' the mud to upset Michigan, 3-2. i | for one of the bitterest defeats 1 ever suffered by the Wolverines. | 1 The Wildcats kicked an early field I goal, and then staved off many I Michigan threats. Tim Lowry., Northwestern captain, finally made certain of victory by giving the Wolverines a deliberate safety late in the game. Now Michigan, beaten by /lichigan State. Indiaua. Minnesota. 111I inois. and Pennsylvania, faces i Northwestern Saturday at Ann Ar- ! bor conceded only a Chinaman's I I chance of victory. But the WolI verines. goaded on by a desire for I revenge, cannot be discounted on 1 ' their record to date, which shows I only a triumph over Columbia. j And beyond Michigan lies Notre , Dame, thristing for revenge to . salve the wounds left by the Wild-• eats' 14-7 victory last November. Oddly enough. Notre Dame, fresh from its thrilling 18-13 triumph; over Ohio State, was headed in the direction of the national title that i day. The Irish scored first, and' had another touchdown called 1 back. Then the Wildcats came with a rush and blasted the Irish to what proved to be their only defeat of the season. I This Northwestern, one of the nation’s three major unbeaten, unI tied teams, has to face on success--1 ive Saturdays teams which have chips on their shoulders, old scores to settle and revenge to spur them on. o All Democrats Are Invited To Dance All Democrats in thie district today were invited to attend the victory dance to be held at the Decatur Country club Thursday, evening, i The affair is sponsored by the !

CARL CARLSON CHAMP RUSHER lowa Farmer Wins National Corn Huskinj? Contest Tuesday Hebron. G.,Nov. H —A raw-boned Red faced lowa farmer, but a champion of Champions, felt bitterly disillusioned today. There wore no radio engagements, no movie contracts. no vaudeville booking agents —nothing in ULs future but endlee® row® of corn. “I guess there Isn't much future in corn husking,” said Cari Carlson, 38. who yi-eterday defeated 18 state champ lons and their runners-up in the annua) corn husking championships. His is a prominent 'Adam’s apple and it bobbed up and down as he talked, signifying his earneetness- ”1 did SIO,OOO worth of work yesterday and all I got was a gold cup and S2OO. it wasn't enough.” I In white duck pants and running' shirt, Carlson devastated an acre of corn yesterday in 80 minutes to the cheers of 100,000 onlookers who swarmed a! over the Uyler farm near here. Carl granted the interview in the presence of his brother, Elmer, tn» retired, undefeated corn-busking champion of the world. Elmer ravaged a corn patch in Indiana last year, plucking 2906.40 pounds in 80 minutes. Carl picked 1,572.<5 to win yesterday. Elmer, disillusioned before Carl, won't compete again until someone equals or betters his record o Driver Killed As Truck Leaves Road Greencastle, Ind.. Nov. 11—(UP)’ —Glen Huff, 32, Terre Haute, was killed today when a truck he was driving left the pavement and clashed into a ditch south of here.
