Game time this evening is 8 o’clock and a huge crowd, enthused by the Yellow Jacket showing in the jamboree, is expected to attend. General admission tickets, priced at 75 cents, and season tickets, priced at $2.50 for adults, and $2 for students, will go on sale at the gates tonight.

Decatur and Auburn have been rivals on the gridiron for a number of years, and tonight’s encounter should produce some good football, even though the season is in its infancy. Lost Close one The Yellow Jackets will be out to settle a score from last season, when they dropped a heart-break-ing 12-9 decision to the Red Devils at Auburn.

ped just short of the Auburn goal line in the game’s closing minutes, making the defeat a bitter pill to swallow. The Devils, coached by John Platt, run from the single wing, with 170-pound fullback Gary Cochard the mainstay of their attack. Cochard is a senior, while Mike Myers at quarterback, and Bob King and Dave Heffley are at halfbacks in the starting backfield. Myers and King are 145-poundprs, and Heffley weighs in at 154 pounds. Auburn Line Big Auburn features a good-sized line. Tackle Jerry Palumbo,- 490pounder, anchors the line, which averages 170 pounds. Terry Habig, tall Auburn end, is a fine pass catcher and will be the main target of any Red Devil passes this evening. Yellow Jacket coach Wally Yeoman has indicated he will more than likely use the same starting lineup that opened against Berne Tuesday. His starting offensive line, led by 220-pound Steve Hazelwood, would have an average weight of 175 pounds.

Cardinals Win Eighth In Row Thursday Hight . By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer About the only question left in the National League pennant race is whether Curt Simmons and the St. Louis Cardinals can beat the clock. In one sense, both already have turned back the clock — Simmons with pitching performances that recall his starring days of the 1950 s and the Cardinals with a whirlwind finish reminiscent of those which reaped them World Series glory in the days of the old Gashouse Gang. The key remaining question is whether the clock of the National League schedule will run out on them before their fast finishes can overtake the front-running Los Angeles Dodgers. It’s a day-to-day propositions The Cardinals can only go on winning and hoping. Winning each game from day to day and hoping that the Dodgers will fade before time runs out and the Redbirds are dead birds. The Cardinals, doing their part in the tradition of some of their great teams of the past, reached their longest winning streak since 1957 Thursday when they beat the New York Mets, 9-0, for their eighth in a row. They remained five games behind the Dodgers, however, when Los Angeles downed the Chicago Cubs, 4-0. Simmons pitched a six-hitter for his 13th win — the most he has scored since 1956 when he had a 15-10 record for the Philadelphia \Phillies. Curt Flood led the Cartlinals’ 14-hit attack with five singles and Tim McCarver weighed in with three hits and three runs batted in. Pete Richert went 7 1-3 innings and Larry Sherry closed out the Dodgers’ hyphenated shutout behind a 10-hit attack which included a homer by Jim Gilliam and two hits each by Wally Moon, Bill Skowron and Dick Tracewski. The Houston Colts downed the San Francisco Giants, 5-2, in 10 innings and the Milwaukee Braves shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates, 8-0, in other National League action. In the American League, New York defeated Washington, 3-2, in 12 innings, Chicago topped Kansas City, 4-1; Los Angeles beat Minnesota, 8-5, and Detroit scored a 5-2 win over Boston. Muscatatuck School Members Appointed INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Governor Welsh’s office today announced appointment of two new members to the Muscatatuck Slate School advisory board. Dr. Jack E. Shields, Brownstown, and Robert T. Ruff, Columbus, were named to succeed State Rep. Taylor I. Morris Jr., R-New Castle, and Dr. Richard A. Snapp, Columbus.

AFL To Open Pro Foolball Card Saturday By United Press International The St. Louis Cardinals have hot-handed young quarterback Charley Johnson and a sellout crowd tonight to welcome the surprising Minnesota Vikings, but the Big Reds aren’t crowing. John David Crow, the Cardinals’ leading ground gainer, is out for a month with a damaged ligament in his right knee, and St. Louis will have to put on its Cardinal Glennon Memorial Hospital Benefit Game without him. The Cardinals bring a 2-1 record into the pre-season finale and the Vikings boast a 3-1 exhibition mark. The expected 32,000 in St. Louis should boost the NFL’s preseason attendance to nearly 950,000. Thus far in 26 dates the. NFL has drawn 914,602, an average of, 35,178, and should top the record' 1.070.725 who witnessed 35 exhibition contests last summer. The rival American Football League averaged only 12,988 customers for its exhibition games, attracting 246,769 for 19 games. New York fans fear old age may be catching with the Giants as Hugh McElhenney joined the brittle Giant’s growing casualty list. The veteran halfback suffered a knee injury in Monday’s game with Green Bay and it has steadily worsened. Alex Webster, Phil King and Frank Gifford, all regulars on the offensive team, are sidelined with injuries. The AFL opens its regular season Saturday night with threetime Eastern Division champion Houston hosting Oakland and defending champ Kansas City (formerly Dallas) traveling to Denver. The four remaining teams see action Sunday in televised games. Two more ex-Baltimore Colts joined Weeb Ewbank’s New York Jets, bringing the total of former Colts now employed by Ewbank to eight. Ken Gregory, an end, and defensive back Bill Baird are the latest additions from Ewbank’s ..former team. Fullback Cookie Gilchrist of Buffalo, the AFL’s player-of-the-year, was expected to start against San Diego Sunday despite a severe rib bruise.

Arnold Palmer Worried Over Bad Shoulder AKRON, Ohio (UPI) —A worried and ailing Arnold Palmer, one of golf’s all-time greats, pinned his hopes for the future today on “modern medicine.’’ / He admitted that he could be sighting the end of a glory road which in eight years has made him a millionaire several times over. ' a It’s all because of bursitis in his right shoulder which developed 10 days ago. It wasn't until Thursday, after a practice round for golf’s biggest purse of the year — this weekend’s $50,000 first-place’ monej in TV’s “World Series of Golf” —that Palmer broke down and confessed “I’m really worried.” “I just can't hit the baU,” he said. “It doesn’t hurt until I swing. Then the pain becomes unbearable.” And staring at the floor of the press tent at Firestone Country Club, he added: “They say modern medicine can do miracles. They can prove it to me now.” Shoot Practice Round He had just finished an 18-hole practice round against the three golfers he will meet for that golden golfing jackpot — Masters and PGA champion Jack Nicklaus, U.S. Open champion Julius Boros and British Open king Bob Charles. He had to pick up on the 16th hole, a 625-yard back-breaker, “because I just couldn’t swing at the ball any more.” He had driven a trap and when he tried to explode out of it, the “pain at the top of my backswing was just too much.” But he kept on hacking away and picked up on the hole when he put his fifth shot into the water fronting the green. He went on to play the 17th and 18th holes in even par. “I’m going to Cleveland to see my doctor right away,” Palmer said. “I hope I’ll be able to play the final practice round tomorrow ■ —but if I can’t, I'll still show up on Saturday.” Takes Pills He said his doctor had given *fiim some pills that “he told me ■might take a couple of days to Jake effect.” “It was either that or cortisone, for the time being at least, because while it helps immediately it would be sore for Jhree or four days. We decided that we’d use a cortisone shot only as a last resort.” Palmer said the doctor told him there was no indication the current ailment was permanent r ‘ But I once,had the same thing, Jh' my left shoulder — and if it's spreading — well, I guess it could be curtains so far as my golf is concerned,” Palmer addea Washington's Top Hitter Is Beaned NEW YORK (UPI) — Chbck Hinton, the Washington Senators' leading hitter, remained hospitalized in “satisfactory” condition today after being beaned Thursday by New York Yankee pitcher Ralph Terry. The 24-year-old outfielder was hit behind the left ear by a pitch in the third inning of the game and was carried from the field on a stretcher and taken to Lenox Hill Hospital.

Gary Peters Hurls 17th Win Os Year UPI Sports Writer It’ll be Gary Peters by acclamation when it’s time to pick the 1963 rookie of the year in the American League: A 6-foot, 2-inch. 200-pound lefthander who failed in three previous brief major league trials, the Chicago White Sox ace seems likely to accomplish two feats tiiat haven’t been achieved in more than a decade. Following his 4-1 victory Thurs-. day over the Kansas City Athletics, Peters needs only three wins to become the - first rookie left-hander to win 20 games since Alex Kellner in 1949. And if he maintains his current earned run average leadership (his E R A. is now 1.84), the 26-year old fastballer will be the first rookie to take that title since Saul Rogovin ii 1951. Peters’ seven strikeouts also boosted his league-leading figure to 175 and placed him in a position to be the first rookie strikeout king in the AL 1 since Herb Score in 1955. . All of which will be of some compensation for the White Sox'
