Let's have some rugged leadership instead of ragged leadership. o——o— —• Sunday would be a good time to start regular church attendance. '<■ e a. If you are planning a winter fishing trip, remember after December 31 a new 1958 fishing license is required. o—o Frank Leahy, former Notre Dame football coach apparently is going back in business at Texas A&M, down where they buy the players by the pound and where football is more important than readin' ritin* and rithmetic. Leahy should fit well into the athletic plan of a Texas school where winning comes first and all else is secondary. O'" o-— The New Year apparently will start with a pessimistic tone as far as labor and industry are concerned. One happy thought is that Decatur retailers had a big ten days before the Holiday. This can be attributed to the fact that local merchants always have had a reputation of offering excellent merchandise; conducting business at hours satisfactory to shoppers and giving more for your money. Let’s all hope that retailers continue to have these standards because they make for a good town and a happy Decatur.

Last of the new Indiana statutes will become effective this next week. A three day waiting period for marriage licenses; no common law marriages and no more fees ofr any' county officials are the most important new statutes. o o— — Congress comes back now in less than two weeks and with the same old doubtful leadership in both parties. The national congressional leadership needs a drastic shaking up. Let's forget politics and make an all out effort to restore our nation’s world status, Instead of worrying about a road through some town or a postmastership in some other town. The time of petty politics is past and we need leadership of the highest class. o—o President Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles apparently don’t comprehend the present situation at all. Instead of going ahead in the scientific field, they seem to think that we can continue our slow pace until we get several more- billion dollars from Congress. Money seems to be their objective rather than success in the missile field. Certainly, even Eisenhower admirers acknowledge the fact that the administration has bobbed pitifully in the present crisis. We need leadership badly and we'll continue to flounder around until we get it.

Yellow Jackets Rally To Nip Peru; Bluffton Whips Portland, 72-43
Old rivals of many years, the Decatur Yellow Jackets and Bluffton Tigers, will battle tonight for the championship of the Bluffton holiday tourney, as the result of victories in opening round games Friday night at the Bluffton gym. The Yellow Jackets, trailing by nine points with less than three minutes to play, rallied brilliantly to overcome the Peru Tigers, 49-46. in the opeping tourney tilt. Bluffton had little difficulty in the nightcap, whipping the Portland Panthers, 72-43. Peru and Portland will meet at 7:30 o’clock tonight, followed by the championship battle between Decatur and Bluffton. The Jackets, trailing 44-35 with 2:43 left to play, came to life in a hurry. Larry Moses and Bob Shraluka each hit from the field, Bob Banks sank a pair bf free throws and Clarence May netted a twopointer, cutting Peru’s lead to 4443, with less than a minute to go. Banks was fouled and cooly dropped in two free throws to put Decatur in the lead, 45-44. Karl King registered two from the charity line and Peru was back on top, 46-45. Moses was then fouled and sank two pressurized free throws for a Decatur lead of 47-46, and Banks again hit two from the 15foot stripe for the final 49-46 score. Banks and Moses led the Yellow Jackets' scoring with 14 and 12 points, respectively. King, with 14, was the only Tiger in double figures. Decatur had led at the first quarter. 11-7, and at the half, 22-21, but Peru had a 35-30 advantage at the end of the third period. Portland failed to offer much opposition for the host Tigers. Bluffton rolled to an 18-point bulge 35-17, at the half, and was never threatened. Bluffton had five players in double figures, with Tom Tangeman and Mike Milholland each scoring 15 points to lead. Skip McKinley of the Panthers topped all scorers with 18 points. ..

Week's Schedule Os Addms County Basketball Teams Saturday Yellow Jackets in Bluffton tourney. Fort Wayne Pro Team Is Named Hoosiers Fort Wayne’s new pro-basketball representative which will make its debut at the Coliseum Sunday, January 5, has been named the “Hoosiers.” The name Hoosiers was selected over many others out of respeci for the old Hoosier organization which provided a lot of entertaining basketball during the late *2o’s and the early ‘3o’s. The new sponsors of the basketball venture think it is only fitting to name their team after the organization that cradled pro-basketball some 30 years ago. The old Hoosier organization [ was a civic organization and sever- j al of the directors are still active [ in business circles in Fort Wayne. Among the directors were Clar- j ence Alter, Dave Hutner, Cap Kil- . bourne, Earl Moss and George ‘ Kemp, and also their general manager,' Jack Gassert. Plans are being completed now for a special ] ceremony at the opening game to 1 honor these former directors of the Hoosier organization. i At present plans call for the staging of approximately seven ' games during the remainder of the season at the Colesium, & it is possible that further games may be scheduled pending the amount of ’ fan interest in the new Hoosier quintet. j j Merchant Burned s Seriously Friday TERRE HAUTE (If) — John j Drake, 49, was burned seriously J Friday when an explosion blamed ( on leaking gas damaged a produce , company he operated with his j brother, .. .

Seixas And Mac Kay Win Final Matches MELBOURNE (UP)—Vic Seixas and Barry Mac Kay salvaged some prestige for the United States Davis Cup team today when they outlasted their already-victorious Australian opponents in the concluding “exhibition'’ matches of the challenge round. Seixas, playing in what he announced was his final Davis Cup match, turned back lanky Mai Anderson, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 0-6, 13-11, in a gruelling 127-minute duel that ruined the Aussies’ bid for their third straight challenge round sweep. j Then Mac Kay, a newcomer to these time-honored Aussie- U. S. cup matches, outgunned Ashley Cooper in another five - set marthon, 6-4, 1-6, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3. Both matches were played in near*loo degree weather. Remarkable Recovery It was a remarkable recovery for the doughty Yanks but it only served to reduce Australia’s winning margin to 3-2 in the best-of-five series. Seixas and Mac Kay dropped their opening singles matches Thursday and then allowed the cup to slip from their grasp when the Aussies clinched matters in Friday’s doubles match. So today’s matches were supposed to be “just for fun.” but both Seixas and Mac Kay played as if their very lives were at stake. Seixas, now 34 and a seven-year veteran of the Davis Cup wars, boldly predicted *l’m going out there and get Anderson” before taking the court at Kooyong Sta- ' dium. Last Cup Appearance “Win or lose, this is my last Davis Cup appearance," the dour ‘ fighter from Philadelphia added. 1 “I’ve got a good job waiting for • ifie when I return to the United States next week.” The MacKay-Cooper set-to pro- ' duced a record for it marked the ■ first time in cup history that all ’ four singles matches were extended to five sets. The result also con- ■ vinced Australian fans that in 1 Mac Kay the U.S. now has a young man that will have to be reckoned ; with in future cup action. The gangling giant from Dayton, Ohio, turned the tables on heavily-favored Cooper in a 91minute power duel that featured crashing deliveries. In fact. Cooper broke his racquet strings while matching Mac Kay’s blistering stroking in the third set. H. S. Basketball HOLIDAY TOURNEYS At Bluffton Decatur 49, Peru 46. Bluffton 72, Portland 43.
