The Fort Wayne Central Catholic Irish, paced by big Jay Pelkingtwi'a 32 points, overpowered the Decatur Yellow Jackets, 7645, at the Decatur gym Friday night It proved to be just a case ol entirely too much size, plus som® truly miserable foul shooting by the Jackets, which carried the Fort Wayne quintet through to victory. Karl Roesler opened the scoring with a free throw but Larry Moses hit from the field to give Decatur a 2-1 lead. Bob Banks hit from close range for a 4-1 advantage. Roesler hit from the field but Bob Shraftika retaliated and the Jackets were on top, 6-3, after three and one-half minutes. Bob Church and Jay Pelkington each connected from the field and C. C. was out in front, to stay. * The Irish held a 14-11 advantage at the end of the first quarter. but the Yellow Jackets were limited to orjy seven points while C. C. poured in 16 to take a comfortable 36-18 lead into the dressing room at the half. The Fort Wayne lads increased their margin at 25 points at 55-30 at the end of the third period and slowly increased their advantage to the final 76-45 triumph.

Steer Fatena will do. In a public feeding demonstration held recently at the Lancaster, Pennsylvania, stockyard, two evenly matched lots of steers were fed separately.

I

The only difference was in the supplement One lot was fed cottonseed oil meat, the other was fed Purina Steer Fatena with stilbestrol. After 110 day* on feed, the Purina, fed steers averaged 2.81 pounds daily gam. But. most important. the Purina-fed steers returned 19.81 more, per steer, than the other group. This is solid proof that a wellbalanced supplement, like Purina Steer Fatena. produces fast, lowcost gain*.

Only other winner in double figures was John Sorg with 12 markers. Bob Shraluka was the only Yellow Jacket able to score consistently, netting 15 points. The Jackets could have made the final score much more respectable with better work at the foul line. The Decatur boys made only five foul shots while missin& 19, whereas C. C. converted on 20 of 29 chances. The Jackets were also hit badly w-hen Larry Moses got into foul trouble early, sitting out the last minute of the first quarter, and much of the second and third periods, finally’ fouling out midway through the final quarter. Bob Banks also fouled out with only five foul shots while missing to play. Hie Yellow Jackets will return to Northeastern Indiana conference competition next Friday night, playing the Columbia City Eagles at Columbia City. Next home> game for Decatur will be Jan. 10 when the Jackets host the New Haven Bulldogs.

Ask us for the facts on Steer Fatena ... then watch the fast gains when you put your cattle on Purina Steer Fatena! New Cattle Wormer Builds Cattle Profits Here’s proof that Purina’s New Cattle Wormer may add dollars to your profits. In a recent public demonstration at the Norfolk, Nebraska, Stockyards 24 heifers were fed Purina Steer Fatena for 135 days. During the demonstration, one group of gate cut heifers had New Purina Cattle Wormer added to their feed for only one day. Then they were put back with the unwqrmed group. At tiie end of the demonstration, those heifers that received New Purina Cattle Wormer in their feed had gained an average of 7 pounds more, per head, than the other cattle. And. the cost of worming was only 26 cents per head. < This means that wormed heifers returned better than a dollar a head more than those not wormed.

Seixas Whips Brichant For Davis Cup Win BRISBANE, Australia (UP) — Vic Seixas, the “old pro” from Philadelphia, resuced the United States Davis Cup team from an ignominious fate today when be whipped Jackie Brichant of Belgium, 10-8, 6-0, 6-1, in the fifth and decisive match of the inter-zone final. By winning the best-of-five series, 3-2, the slightly stunned Yanks earned the right to oppose defencjchampion Australia for the 14th straight time in the challenge round at Melbourne, Dec. 26-28. But they almost didn’t make it. Philippe Washer, who had teamed with Brichant to upset the Americans in Friday’s doubles match, sprung another -surprise when he turned back Herb Flam of Beverly Hills, Calif., 6-2, 6-3, 0-6, 6-3, in today's first singles match. Washer's victory deadlocked the series at 2-all and now the Belgians needed just one-more-up-set to complete one of the greatest comebacks in cup history. But Seixas ruiiwi their dreams by settling an old score with Brichant in straight sets. Regarded as one of the game’s best clutch players, Seixas lived up to his reputation in the gruelling first set, which lasted 52 minutes. He broke Brichant' service in the second game to gain a 2-0 lead but then dropped his service in the fifth game. Games then followed service until the 18th game when Vic broke Brichant again, picking up set point with a fantastic backhand drive. That first set left the Belgian utterly exhausted and Seixas needed only 26 minutes to capture the next two sets and the match. Vic pounded away mercilessly when he realized Brichant’s defense was crumbling and met only token resistance from his rival. Washer won his 90-minute struggle against Flam by overpowering the bespectacled Californian with a stronger service and superior forehand drives. Flam, extremely nervous and fidgety, showed flashes of his best form by rallying to win the third set. o .. . ... .
