Yellow Jackets' Win Streak Broken By Loss To Fort Wayne Central

The "big city" jitter* played defense and the Fort Wayne Central Tigers furnished the offense as they beat the Decatur Yellow Jackets on the Central floor Fri day night. 68-61. The Jackets had both opponents pretty well under control in the last half, but it was • too late for the Decaturites to overcome a 13-point deficit at halftime. The first half had Decatur throwing the ball everywhere but in the right place. Central jumped off to ' a big lead after the Jackets had gone into a momentary lead at 3-2 j on a free throw by Terry Murphy and two more by Gene Baxter. The Tigers boosted their lead to 123 and then scored four more points to Decatur’s eight for a 16-11 first period budge. , ' Central continued to take advantage of the rattled Jackets’ passing and pushed their lead to 34-18 before Decatur did much. The locals made five points to Central’s two before the half and Central ' led 36-23. The two teams played about on a par in the third stanca as Decatur out-scored the taller Tigers 17-15, ut still trailed by 11, 51-40 at the ena oi the third quarter. The final period was just about a free-for-all. Coach Bob Worthman had two technicals called on him, one when he got indignant over a foul being called on a player that Decatur didn't have. The referee called a foul and designated the number of a Jacket player that didn’t exist. When Worthman questioned the official, he was assessed the foul. Central had pulled to .a. 60-44 leaU but the Jackets • scored 10 straight points to narrow the margin to six.. From there on the game stayed about the same. The game was quite a ragged affair. The Jackets made 29 free throws for the second consecutive game, but Central came up with the same number of field goals. Tony Kelly led the Decatur attack with 18 points, followed by Murphy with 13 and Moses with 11. Jumping

Pro Bowl Game Slated Sunday In Los Angeles LOS ANGELES (INS) — Rival coaches Sid Gillman and Joe Koharich made noises like political party leaders on election eve today as their Western and Eastern division teams eased up in practice for Sunday's sixth annual Pro Howl football game. Instead of the customary moaning over injuries and bad breaks, both of the play-for-pay mentors spoke with enthusiasm bordering on adoration of their armies of gridiron gallants. < In fact, both almost — but not quite — went as far in their assaults on the established precepts of coaching as to predict victory for their teams. GUlman, whose National Football League Western Division AllStare are favored by five points,, declared with obvious glee: "Great spirit, and desire on this squad. Theysfe relaxed and datermined to win. and that's the way I like it Every ‘hand’ fits’ like a tailor-made glove." And Knharich, pointing out that the oddemakers aren’t included in the lineup of either team, replied os he picked out his starting eleven: "The objective of an All-Star game is the same as for any game —not to play everybody equally, but to win. With these 32 AllStars, however, it doesn't make too much difference who playa:'’ With that, Kuharich passed up quarterback Eddie Labaron, who led the Washington Redskins, to second place in the Eastern Division last year, and fullback Ollie Matson of the Chicago Cards to pick Philadelphia's quarterback | Adrian Burk and Cleveland’s Curly Morrison as his starting onetwo punch. Frank Gifford of the New Ya*’ Giants and Ray Mathews of the Pittsburgh Steelers round out the starting eastern backfield. Gillman is expected to start his own Loe Angeles Rams Tpilot, Norman Van Brocklin, at quarter and back him up with Ed Brown of the Chicago Bears. For his other backs, he can choose the likes of Doak Walker of the Detroit Lions. Howie Ferguson of the Green Bay Packers, Alan (The Horse) Ameche Os Baltimore and Los Angeles’ Ronnie Waller, to mention a fdw. Brooklyn Dodgers Sign Three Hurlers NEW YORK (INS) — Three pitchers including rookie sensation Rager Craigwho started and Wofi the fifth game of the World Series against the New York are under contract today for the 1956 season with the world champion Brooklyn Dodgers. Tommy Byrne Signs New Yankee Contract NEW YORK (INS) — Veteran left-hander Tommy Byrne, who led the American League with a 164 won-lost record during 1955 signed Ms 1956 Now York Yankee cokg tract today for a reported 320,90 ft. The 36-year-old southpaw, who won the opening game of the World Series against the Dodgers, is slated to receive the "Comeback of the Year” award Sunday night in Chicago from the Chicago chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America.

Honduras Fighter Beats Joey Lopes wig Ligbtburn, fast-moving lightweight from British Honduras, scored a split ten-round decision over Joey Lopes of Sacramento. Calif., Friday night at Winterland in Ban Francisco. The nationally-televised bout was marked by a hassle between referee Jack Silver and Lightburn’s manager, Allie Clarke. The beef developed after Silver warned Lightburn for hitting low and for punching after the bell. Ligbtburn opened * cut under Lopes’ left eye at the opening of the ninth when he connected with a hard right cross. Blood was flowing freely from the wound at the finish. Referee Silver was the lone official to cast his vote for Lopes, 55% to 54%. Judge Toby Irwin scored it 58-52 for Lightburn and Judge Eddie James gave it to Lightburn, 59-54. It was Lightburn’s sixth straight victory. He weighed 139% to 137% for Lopes. Hogan And Crosby Lead Pro-Am Meet ft PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (INS)— Bantam Ben Hogan who vows he has retired from competitive golf and Bing Croeby, better known as a crooner than a golfer, lead the way today into second round of Crosby’s *15,000 {Jro-amateur tournament at Pebble Beach. - The genial pair who insist they are playing “just for fun” put together a best-ball round of 60 to grab the top spot in the opening round of the 54-hole charity event Friday. Hogan’s individual score of 67— five strokes under the Cypress Point course par of 72—gave him Ithlrd place In the pro competition.
