Yellow Jackets Lose To Bluffton Friday Night, Final Score 14 -7
Bluffton's Tigers downed the Decatur Yellow Jackets, 14-7. in a Northeastern Indiana conference Rattle Friday night at Worthman field, in al game played under conditions far more suitable to baseball than football, with the mercury hanging around the 70 mark. The Tigers proved more adept at taking advantage of the breaks in racking up their third victory of the season without a loss, while it was the-Jackets second loss in as many starts. Decatur drew first blood. Bluffton fumbled the opening kickoff. ‘A Boger Blgckburn recovering on the Bluffton 27. The jackets could ■ not capitalize on this early break, ’■ however, and were forced to punt. The Tigers, after picking up a first down, again fumbled, with Ton£ 'Custer recovering on the Bluffton 1.

The Tigers rgeled off four first downs in a roW late in the opening period, carrying to the Decatur 19 when the quarter ended. On the second play of the second period, Don Hay drove 10 yards fqr a touchdown but the attempted kick s for the extra point was no good ‘ and Decatur held a 7-6 lead at the end of the half, j.' The Tigers recovered, a Decatur fumble deep in Decatur territory late in the third period, but the threat was ! stopped when ths Jackets intercepted a piss on their own three-yard line. However, on the next play, the Tigers caught Bill Hancher back of the goal line and threw him for a safety and two points, putting Bluffton in front, 8-7, early in the final quarter. An exchange of fumbles after ensuing free kick gave Blufftop the ball on ''the Bluffton 47. The Tigers then blasted their way to the .decisive touchdown, Morris Harnish bucking over from a yard out, but the extra point was again no good.

Alabama Upset As Grid Season Gets Underway By UNITED PRESS The 1953 college football season was ushered in today with one of the biggest upsets in a quarter century—little Mississippi Southern'g?,.stunning 25-19 conquest of Orange Bowl champion Alabama. Scheduled as a “breather" for the 61-6 conquerors of Syracuse in last New Year's Day’s Florida classih, the Hattiesburg, Misft., scho'ol with a male enrollment of only 1,460 rose behind speedy Lauren Pepper to spring the season’s first shocker at Montgomery. Ala., Friday night. Coached by former University of Mississippi star Thad Pie Vann, Mississippi Southern compiled a 10-2 record last season but was not regarded as in the same class as the powerful Crimson Tide — expected to be one of the country's powerhouses this year. But it demonstrated Friday night that, in this new era of “one platoon per team,” the larger schools will no longer be able to overwhelm the little fellows with sheer weight of numbers. That was the contention of the athletic directors of the “little fellows" who supported the return to the “one platoon” system and it took no lodger than the season’s, first day to demonstrate its truth. , For it was the two-platoon accustomed Crimson Tide that wilted in the last period as the 28-point underdogs tallied two touchdowns against the second-stringers. Alabama's starters, unaccustomed to playing both on offense and defense, simply tired after three periods and the substitutes could hot hold the fort. v Pepper, 196-pound halfback and ex-soldier, hammered away at the tiring Tide for 115 yards and two touchdowns to spark the victory. Most of the other favorites came through as expected Friday night —Detroit routing North Dakota State, 33-6; Furman downing Newberry. 33-0; Temple, led by Jack Hadley’s two touchdowms, walloping Albright. 34-0; and Youngstown beating Bowling Green, 2(K7.
Kiel Gavilan Wins On Split Decision SYRACUSE, N. Y. UP — Kid Gavilan said today he might give up the welterweight crown and shoot for the middleweight title because of his ."weakened condition” while winning an unpopular split 15-round decision over gallant Carmen Basilio Friday night. "I ll decide in five or six weeksy’ declared the once-great champldn from Cuba. "What good is the welterweight title if I’m so weak from losing weight 1 don’t feel good defending it?" Gavilan’s statements made it uncertain whether he would carry out his pledge to the New York state athletic commission and defend against Johnny Bratton cf Chicago within 60 days. Gavilan’s prestige suffered much despite his split victory. Basilio, son of an onion farmer from nearby Canastota, N. Y. t floored the Keed for a count of nine with a left hook in the second, round, and staggered him twice more in that session. In addition, 26-tyear-qld Carmen, who fought the last five with his left eye practically closed, rocked the champion in several other rounds. The crowd of 6,440 which paid a record gate of 874,319 for* the Central New York area,' cheered Basilio throughout the bout and booed*, the decision more than 10 minutes. Three fistic altercations broke out at the ringside. Gavilan weighed 146 % pounds, the first time he pared dowmto the 147 pound limit since his last defense against Chuck Davey at Chicago, Feb. 11. In his last non-title bout on Aug. 26. he scale<Ll64. “And I felt fine as a middleweight at 154," the champ explained. Challenger Basilio, who unexpectedly had to take off a pound at Friday’s weigh-in, registered exactly 147, and he appeared the strongest of his career although attempting 15 rounds for the first time. He went into the ring an underdog at 4-1. ■F
Furillo, Hodges Ready For Series NEW YORK, UP — Outfielder Carl Furillo and first baseman Gil Hodges, key sluggers fin Brooklyn's,/modem version of •'Murderers’'Rpw,” were declared “definitely fit” I 'today to be in the starting lineup when the Dodgers meet the New York Yankees in the first game of the World Series. Manager Charley Dressen, still chipper after scouting the fourtime world champion Yankees, announced that Furillo would return to action when the Dodgers meet the Philadelphia Phillies in their final series of the season beginning next Friday.. And Hodges himself laughed off speculation that he might miss the big series when he insisted he. “could play today if necessary.** Furillo suffered a broken metacarpal bone in his left hand during his celebrated “no-punch”’ fight with Leo Durocher of the New York Giants two weeks ago while Hodges suffered a. bruised left side wben’~he crashed tarto thV right field wall at County Stadium, Milwaukee, a week ago. "Furillo’ll be ready," the cocky Dressen predicted. “He’ll bat in that Philadelphia series against Robin Roberts, Curt Simmons and probably Bob Miller and don’t tell me that won’t make him ready for those Yankee pitchers." Furillo was less confident than Dressen but seemed more concerned with recovering his batting eye than worried about his actual condition. “It can take time to get back in stride after a layoff." Furillo. who leads the National league with a .344 batting average. “I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to play but I don’t know how well." ■..
