The two teams represented the NEIC at the Huntington Jamboree earlier this year, losing by one touchdown to the powerful Huntington Vikings and Hartford City. Coach Bcb Worthman expressed a bit of optimism at this week's practice sessions and tonight may be the night for the Jackets. The Eagles, coached by Max Gandy, are n big team but rather slow afoot in the line. They do boast a break-away running in Dennis McCoy who may prove to be a thorn in Decatur's side. Worthman hopes to field all his team for the first time this season. ,In recent games, one boy or another failed to see action because of injuries. Special Halftime Show At halftime, the combined bands will play “The Bouree,” one of Bach's eatlier compositions. The junior high band will form a “B” while the high school musicians will form “100” which will represent the miles of Bach’s works if laid end to end. Bach, who fathered 21 children, was a great family man as well as one of the greatest musicians. The bands will honor this facet of his life by playing “The Children's Dance.” The formations will include a “B” and “21”. The last formation will be a large church and a white cross, denoting Bach’s religious writings. The bands will play one of his best known hymns, “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring,” as the finale. Hartford To Manage 1960 County Tourney The second meeting of the year for the Adams county principals and coaches athletic association was held at the Monmouth school Thursday evening. The association set up a list of proposed officials for the 1961 county basketball tourney, and also announced that Hartford Center will be manager of the 1960 tourney, to be held at Adams Central Jan. 14. 15 and 16. Don Elder. Monmouth coach and secretary-treasurer of the association, also announced final standings in the county baseball league. Berne won the county title with six victories and no defeats. Geneva and Monmouth were second with 4-2 records. Decatur Catholic and Adams Central fourth with 3-3 marks. Pleasant Mills sixth with 1-5. and Hartford seventh with 0-6.

Record Shares Paid Dodgers And White Sox NEW YORK (UPI)The largest World Series checks in history are being mailed out today to the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago White Sox — courtesy of the Los Angeles Coliseum. Each of 29 Dodger players will receive a record full share of $11,231.18 and each of 31 members of the White Sox will get $7,275.17, also a record for a losing share. The biggest jackpot in World Series history was announced by baseball Commissioner Ford Frick Thursday and the record total player pool of $893,301.40 was made possible by the fact that more than 90,000 fans attended each game played in the mammoth Coliseum. The White Sox had nothing but criticism for the Coliseum “cowpasture” during the series, but they are bound to feel much better about it when the mailman delivers their checks. Previous High In ’54 Previous high for a winners’ share was $11,147.90 by the New York Giants in 1954 after they beat the Cleveland Indians in four straight games. The highest previous losing share was $6,934.34 received by the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1956. If the current Dodgers and White Sox aren’t planning to cash their checks (fat chance), they might do well to frame them because the "checks are bound to be the largest made out for a long, long time. Frick made it clear that “we won’t be playing another World Series” in the spacious Los Angeles Coliseum. “The Dodgers are sure to have their own park ready at least by World Series time next year,” he said, “and if they win, they’ll have the series there.” The Dodgers tried not to over- \ look anyone in dividing their melon before the series started. They voted full shares to series hero? Larry Sherry, Roger Caig and! Mauy Wills, all of whom report-1 ed to them after June 1. They also desilnated a full share for pitcher Art Fowler, released on Aug. 15 Voted Half Shares Eight others, including veteran pitcher Carl Erskine who retired June 15, were voted half shares of $5,615.59 by the world champs. The White Sox did all right by Ted Kkiszewski, obtained from the Pirates on voted Mm a half share of $3,637.59 and remember, the voting was done before the series. Larry Doby, let go on Aug. 1, also got a half share as did rookie John Callison, who didn’t put in a full year with Chicago. Trainer Ed Froelich was voted a full share by the White Sox while Dodger trainer Harold Wendler and his assistant, Bill Buhler, split a full share between them. A full second-place share was worth $1,808.16 to. the Milwaukee Braves and $1,799.94 to the Cleveland Indians. Among those cut in for a full share by the Braves was Red Schoendienst, who saw little action due to his convalescence from tuberculosis. Slaughter Suffers Loss The third-place San Francisco Giants drew $1,388.34 for a full share and the New York Yankees, long accustomed to the lion's share, had to settle for a full third place share of $1,229.32. For fojrth ptee a full share was worth $5a?99 to the Pittsburgh ■Pirates and $661.60 to the Detroit Tigers. Unfortunately for Enos (Country) Slaughter, he was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Slaughter spent most of the season with the Yankees but was voted a flat share of S3OO by the Braves, whom he joined Sept. 11 and was released after the sea-

Ernie Banks Is Named National Player Os Year NEW YORK <UPI) — Ernie Banks, homer-hitting shortstop of ithe Chicago Cubs, is the United Press International's National League Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. The slender, 28-year-old slugger from Dallas, Tex., was voted the honor, today in the annual balloting or the UPl’s 24-man committee of NL experts. Banks received a total of 12 votes to beat out Hank Aaron of the Milwaukee Braves, the league batting champion, who polled eight votes. Ed Mathews of the Braves, who led the circuit with 46 homers, received two votes and outfielder Wally Moon of the Los Angles Dodgers and rookie sensation Willie McCovey of the San Francisco Giants got one each. Makes Own Headlines The fifth-place Cubs didn’t rate much banner-line space because of the three-cornered NL pennant fight but Banks made his own headlines. —With 143 runs batted in he set a new NL record for shortstops, and topped the circuit in that department for the second straight year. —With 45 home runs he went over the 40-mark for the fourth time in his career and boosted his lifetime total to 228. Vern Stephens. who played 15 years and hit 247 homers, is the only major league shortstop who has hit more homers. Banks has played seven years. Iron Man Record —He continued as an old-fash-ioned iron man in an airplane league by playing in all 155 Cub games Although he carries only 175 pounds on a six-foot frame. Banks has missed only 18 games since he joined the Cubs in 1953. Banks won the Nati on a 1 League’s Most Valuable Player Award in 1958 when he batted .313 with 47 homers and 129 runs batted in and obviously will be a strong candidate to win that honor this year. He batted .304 this year. The award will be announced by the BasebaU Writers’ Association of America next month. Man Burned Fatally As Bed Catches Fire CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind.

Northwestern, Purdue Favored To Win Saturday : United Press International If expert opinion means anything. Northwestern and Purdue ' should improve their spotless Big Ten football records with little trouble Saturday. Second-ranked Northwestern figures to have only over-confidence to fight when it faces Michigan at Ann Arbor, and fifth-rated ’ Purdue need fear only some ' hitherto unseen gridiron strategy by a desperate Woody Hayes when the Boilermakers invade Ohio State. The Wildcats, victors over Oklahoma, lowa and Minnesota, are ■ 13-point favorites over the hardpressed Wolverines, who have only an 18-7 conquest over Oregon State to show for three games this season. Purdue, which gave Wisconsin a 21-0 shellacking last week, is a 7-point choice over the Buckeyes, who edged Duke. 14-13, in their first test and then lost to Southern California and Illinois without scoring a point. Northwestern and Purdue are unbeaten in or out of the conference* the Wildcats with a 2-0 slate and the Boilermakers 1-0 against league rivals. Illinois, which has pulled off two upsets in a row, will be seeking its second conference victory against one setback when it meets Minnesota in a homecoming tilt on the Illini field. Illinois was a 7-point favorite for a change. lowa and Wisconsin, a pair of pre-season favorites who have disappointed their followers, are paired at Madison, Wis. lowa with a 1-1 record in league play was a 3-point favorite over the Badgers who lost to Purdue in their only trial against a Big Ten club.
