JACKETS MEET” BLUFFTONTEAM FRIDAY NIGHT Yellow Jackets Play Bluffton Tigers At Bluffton Friday Decatur’s Yellow Jackets, smart* Ing under that 52-0 defeat in the season opener at Peru last Saturday night, are working hard this week In preparation for their second start of the seaw.'-n Friday ntght when they tangle with the Uluffon Tigers at Bluffton. The Jackets are anvious to keep their record of victories over the Tigers clean. Bluffton lias been defeated five consecutive years by the Yellow Jackets and Decatur hopes to make it six in a row under the lights Friday night. B’ufft .1 has played two games this year, losing both. The Tigers lost to Central of Fort Wayne, 13 to 0. and to Warsaw, 33 to 6. Bluffton is reported to have a light, but faet team, but lost a number of regulars from last season's s'Quad. The Yell sv Jackets, while battling one of the consistently strongest teams in the state in Peru last week, showed some possibilities of deve’aping into a fairly strong team. Peru with a starting line averaging more than 200 pounds, could make but little headway through the Decatur line. Kost cf Peru’s yardage was made on off-tacakle smashes, with a few end runs and forward passes tossed in for variation. Inexperience was costly to Decatur in the opening contest, but

GIANTS, CUBS I MAINTAIN PACE Both Win To Keep Giants’ Lead At Two And OneHalf Games New York, Sept. 16.—(U.R) Bill Terry and the New York Giants say good bye to Pittsburgh today but with regrets. If the Giants go on to win the pennant they will owe a debt of gratitude to Pie Traynor and his Pirates. Al) season Pittsburgh has been the Giants' deep-dish apple pie, but those happy days of knocking down Pie's Pirates end today. The last game between the Giants and Pirates is scheduled at Forbes Field. Pittsburgh. Up to today the Giants have licked the Pirates 15 times, more victories than they've scored against any other club, while los IXT only six times. But that isn't all. The Pirates have performed a double service to the Giants. While proving easy prey for New York they've made life miserable for the Gaints’ closest rivals, the Cubs, by beating them 13 times, five games more than any other club, out of 22 games. The Giants hung anotb»r defeat on the Pirates yesterday in typical fashion. 7-2. They let the Piratgs help them. Two unearned runs scored in the first inning when Russ Bauers made a wild throw and Arky Vaughan fumbled a grounder. Another unearned NewYork run came in the fifth, and between times the Giants batted in five other runs. Hal Schumacher scattered the Pirates' nine hits, including triples by Paul Waner and Vaughan, and won his 12th game. Russ Bauers. driven out in the second. was charged with the defeat. The Chicago Cubs held their distance —2>x games behind the Giants —by downing the Boston Bees. 52. Curt Davis outpitched Milt Sroffner. rookie southpaw, allowing only six hits. Frank Demaree hit a homer and drove in the winning run with a single. After battling for 13 innings, the Cardinals and Phillies stopped in a 6-6 tie which will be played off today as part of a double-header. Each team used three hurlers and each got 12 hits—two of Philadelphia's being home runs by Dolph Camtlli, and one of St. Louis' being | circuit clout by Joe Medwick, who also banged three’ singles. Brooklyn and Cincinnati divided a pair of games, the Reds winning the opener. 6-0, behind Gene Schott's 6-hit pitching and the Dodgers taking the nightcap. 8-5. by combining 13 hits with three Red errors. The New York Yankees had their American league lead trimmed to 9|4 games by splitting a doubleheader with Cleveland. The Yanks now need any combination of 11 New York victories and Detroit defeats to clinch the pennant. That is if the Yanks win six games and the Tigers lose five New York will be in. Cleveland won the opener, 5-4. in 10 innings for the Indians' first victory in Yankee stadium this season. The game started out a pitchers' battle between Joe Vance. Yankee rookie from Kansas City, and Bob Feller, but both were knocked out. Feller gave way under a four-run barrage in the eighth after blanking the Yanks for seven innings. Julius Solters' triple and Hale’s fly accounted for the winning run. Monte Pearson held the Indians to four hits as the Yanks won the second game, 3 to I—a1 —a playoff of the protested game of August 6. Detroit put on a three-run rally in the ninth to nose out Washington. 4-3. Until the ninth Wes Ferrell had held the Tigers to seven hits and one unearned run. Brilliant relief pitching by Clint Brown featured the Chicago White Sox 5-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox. He allowed only two hits in four innings. Lefty Grove weakened in the seventh and the White Sox put across the three winning runs. In the battle for the cellar the Athletics and Browns broke even. The A’s won the first game. 8-2. and the Browns took the nightcap. 3-1. Yesterday's hero: Monte Pear-

Ison, Yankee pitcher bothered by| ! ailments most of the season, who returned to form with a four-hit! game against Cleveland, his former club. ± j| FRED F. BAYS IS APPOINTED Former Sullivan Mayor On Public Service Commission Indianapolis. Sept. 16. -- (U.R) •— Fred F. Bays, former mayor of Sullivan, succeeded Samuel L. Trabue of Rushville as a member of tile state public service commission today as the administration continued its housecleaning by dismissing three officials of the Indiana prison farms also. Prison farm officials asked to resign by Thurman A. Gottschalk, state welfare director, are William Richmond, superintendent of all farms and stationed at the Summit farm between Michigan City and LaPorte; William Cannon, superintendent of the Warren county i farms; and George Dull, head of the Benton county farms. Trabue said he retired from his public service commission office with “good feeling” toward Gov. M. Clifford Townsend but that he had notified the governor that he would not resign because "an involuntary resignation amounts to an admission that work of the person resigning has not been satisfactory. or that something is wrong." "This is not the situation in my case and I will not resign.' Trabue said. He admitted, however, that Townsend has authority to remove him under the state reorganization act of 1933. Trabue's departure has been expected. however, ever sinoe Town--send took office. The governor is known to have wanted to reward Bays for his campaign support with an important appointment. 1 Bays, long active in southern Indiana Democratic po.ftics. served three years as Sullivan county prosecuting attorney, and two terms as a member of the board of trustees for the southern Indiana hospital for the insane at Evansville. He was mayor of Sullivan in 1933. completing an unexpired term. Trabue was appointed to the public service commission by former Gov. Paul V. McNutt. In announcing dismissals of the state farms officials. Gottschalk announced that Richmond will be sue-1 needed by Chester Helms, assistant superintendent and a graduate of the Colorado state |chool of agriculture. The Warren and Benton farms will be combined into a single operating unit managed by Joseph Glancy. a nephew of Gov Townsend and now employed as a guard. The changes, effective Oct. 1. follow the dismissal of Howard C. Crosby as chief prison clerk at the state prison at Michigan City. Crosby was succeeded by Ed Taylor. ■ Democratic chairman of Starke ' county. HOME RUNS Di Maggio, Yankees 42 Greenberg. Tigers 35 Gehrig. Yankees 34 Foxx. Red Sox 33
