YELLOW JACKETS Bob Worthman's Decatur Yellow Jackets made it three in a row. and two in succession against Fort Wayne Central Catholic, • when they downed the Irish, 63-49, at the Decatur gytn Friday night. The Jackets had bested C. C. In the final game of the holiday tourney at Elmhurst last week by a 57-64 count. The Decatur lads romped to an early lead, building their advantage up to 17 points late in the second quarter, then slowed down noticeably to permit the Irish to catch them at 35-35 and even go ahead temporarily late in the third period. However, unworried by C. C.’a press in the final quarter, the Jacket* ran away from the visitors in the closing minutes for their 14-point victory bulge. _.. Both teams started slowly and the game was scoreless for a minute and 15 seconds befdre Tony Kelly broke the scoring ice with a pair of free throws. Larry Cook hit from the field to knot the score but the Jackets pulled to an 8-3 lead midway through the quarter and held a six-point advantage, 15-9, at the end of the period. Decatur boosted its bulge to 3114 after six minutes of the second period, but the Irish scored the next four points to ent Decatur’s lead to 31-30 at the half. C. C. scored the first nine points of the third period to pull within two points at 31-29, before Bob Banks ended Decatur’s scoring tarpine with a two-pointer after three minutes had elapsed. A pair of free throws by Jim Haffner and another pair by Leo Hine pulled the Irish into a 15-35 tie with 2:50 to play in the period. Haffner hit from the field and C. C. led at 3735. The teams were tied again at 37-37 and 39-39 and Banks hit from for Decatur and a 41-39 margin at the period’s end. The Jackets slowly built up their lead to 49-41, which was cut to 49-45 with slightly less than four minutes to play. Decatur shot its lead to. 10 points in the next minute and the issue was settled. The Yellow Jackets again had pretty well balanced scoring. Tony Kelly ted with 16, trailed closely by Terry Murphy with 13. Haffner was the whole show for C. C-, stalling the meshes for 23 points oh seven fielders and nine free throws. Most of his fielders were from out. The Jackets will be on the road twice next week, playing at Elmhurst Tuesday night, and meeting the Fort Wayne Central Tigers at the Central gym Friday.

COMMODORES A hot third quarter -for the Decatur Commodores brought them from behind And gave them tbq push to, defeata small, but scrappy, Anderson St. Mary’s team, 64 to 59, Friday night at Anderson. The Commodores fell behind in the first quarter when they allowed the Anderson boys to score four field goals before Dave Ruble finally connected for two points with more than twofflinutes of the quarter gone. „ z However, they could not get going during the initial period, scoring on three field goals out of many attempts and two out of seven trya at the Free throw line for a skimpy total of eight potuta. The Anderson Gaels during this time scored seven field goals and four free shoti lo double Decatur's score. The situation was reversed in the second quarter when the local boys began to find their range and Anderson test theirs- Decatur pushed'through 14 points and held the Gaels to seven. With tees than two minutes to go in the period Fanrote tossed in a couple of free throws and then Wilder connected on a field goal to put the Common dores ahead, 22 to 21, tor the first time In the game. A last second basket by Anderson's Frank Harrington gave LU tettfh'a 23-22 advantage at the half. Then in the third period the local boys really came to IKe with all five Commodores contributing to a 26-point attack. Shortly after the quarter began they went ahead to stay in spite of valiant efforts on /he part of Anderson to regain the, lost ground. Anderson managed to connect 16 points during the quarter to stay in the game- The period ended 48 to 39 in favor of the Decatur team. During the fourth quarter another balanced Commodore attack allowed them to hold on to their lead although the Gaels put up a bitter battle and threatened several times to catch up. Their rally never was hot enough though and the Commodores walked off the Victors by scoring 16 fourth quarter points to Anderson’s 20 markers for the final score of 64 to 59. The Commodores used 16 Anderson fouls to score 14 point* on 25 tosses from the charity stripe. Out of 15 Decatur fouls, the Gaels scored 17 times out of 27 free tosses. The scoring attacks for both teams were balanced with four men on each team In the double figures- Ron Meyer of Decatur and Cteve Francoeur of Anderson ted each team with 15 markers apiece. It was Anderson's 12th defeat of the season and the Commodores ninth ■Win. . - The Commodores next see action at the county tourney Friday night at the Adams Central gym when they clash with Pleasant Mills in the final game of the first round. «■ * Commodores FG FT TP R.
