Yellow Jackets Win Opening Game Os Yed

JACKETS WHIP PORTLAND FIVE FRIDAY NIGHT Jackets Launch Net Season With Impressive 37-22 Win A band of Decatur Yellow Jackets, at times flashing a brand of basketball unequalled by a local (earn in several years, unleashed furious second and fourth quarter attacks at Portland last night easily to down the Panthers. 37-22. Seven lettermen and a reserve player, moved up to the varsity, at various times were included in the Jackets’ winning line-up and although the Panthers staged one or two promises of a rally, Decatur easily warded off the attack before getting into serious dangej. The Jackets, despite the fact that they held the Panthers scoreless from the field in the first quarter, were able to build up only a 7-3 lead. In the second stanza, however, they literally laughed at the reported prowess of a supposedly well blended quintet of Panthers and rolled up a 21-7 margin. Shoe with three baskets. C. Stapleton with one. Gaunt with a pair, McConnell with three and a foul toss, and Zerkel with a brace of charity tosses all took part in the first half scoring. With Coach Hugh Andrews shifting the locals around in order to give each man an opportunity to display his merits, the Panthers began to threaten in the third stanza, moving up to 28-21 at one time. The Jackets hurriedly smothered the threat, and again broke loose with a withering attack in the final period. C. Stapleton with three buckets. McConnell with two. Shoe and Gaunt with one each, aided by Shoe and Zerkel's heaves from the charity lane filled the Decatur ledger in tbe second half. The fact that the Jackets were playing their inaugural encounter of the 1938-39 season against a team which had already chalked up one victory, and their flashes of fine form gave evidence of a quintet which should rapidly round into a winning combination. McConnell led the local scoreiK with 11 points. Shoe garnered nine, I
