packets Play Lt Concordia [On Wednesday I Hie Decatur Yellow Jackets, in ■heir lone mid-week contest of the season, meet the Concordia Cadets tet Zollner Stadium in Fort Wayne [Wednesday evening. I Game time Wednesday is 8 p.m. [Tickets are on sale at the local [school at 50 cents for students. [No adult tickets are available, and all tickets at the gate Wednesday will be sl. I The Yellow Jackets will seek to return to the victory trail which led them to three wins in a row before losing a squeaker to Kendallville by the narrowest of margins, 21-20. * The two clubs have identical overall won-lost records, 4-3, but Decatur stands at 3-3 in the Northeastern Inidana conference race in fifth place, while the defending champion Cadets are a half-game back at 2-3. The Decaturites hope to continue with their high-scoring attack that has netted them 134 points in six conference tilts and 161 tallies in the seven games this season. Cadet Attack The Cadets, too, have a strong offensive, led by speedy Tom Steinhauser, and racked up 27 points in besting Columbia City last Friday. Coach Wally Yeoman’s Yellow Jackets’ attack may suffer greatly, from injuries, however. Fullback Buster Melchi is a definite question mark due to a leg injury suffered in the Bluffton game. He was slowed against Columbia City and ran the ball only once last Friday. Melchi has had a special protective pad made for the leg, but whether or not his leg responds to treatment remains to be seen. Max Elliott, the team’s leading scorer and ground gainer, may also be slowed due to a leg injury received in the Kendallville game.

Defeat Os Bears No Surprise To Halas CHICAGO (UPI) — George Halas was neither happy nor surprised today that his Chicago Bears nolonger were the unbeaten leaders of the National Football League's Western Division race. “I never thought we were going to go unbeaten the whole season,” he said, “and you never know where you’re going to lose. But you know that you’re going to, and so is everybody else.” The Bears deserved to be beaten by San Francisco, he said, because “they (Forty Niners) were aroused and we were flat.” “It was a combination of circumstances which invariably will produce aiF* unexpected result. Then the press ridiculed them and helped to arouse them. It was not a case of overconfidence on our part, because we respect everybody we Play. "But Unconsciously players, can experience a letdown, and once your relaxed, it’s hard to come back.’’ Halas saw some gleam for future hope, even in defeat, since he said he would need dd nothing this week to prepare the Bears mentally for Sunday’s outing with Philadelphia, one of thetwo Eastern Division teams on the schedule. “Naturally our players are depressed after that loss,” he said, “but they believe in themselves firmly and have great pride in accomplishment. I think the loss will take care of our attitude for next week.” Dry-Cleaning Floors Much better than washing wood floors is to dry-clean them with cleaning wax especially designed for wood floors. The wax, containing solvents, dissolves the soiled wax and simultaneously deposits a coat of fresh wax on the surface. Polish and buff for beauty and a hard surface. Clean about four times a year, and wipe with a dry mop in between times.

Bart Starr Os Packers Out With Injury GREEN BAY. Wis. (UPD— The injury jirix, which ’ has played havoc with other top contenders in earlier weeks, has finally struck the Green Bay Packers, robbing them of the man that makes the offense go, Bart Starr. The Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions and Baltimore Colts have all lost front line players to in-., jury in their effort to stop the Packers from grabbing a third successive National Football League crown. Now Starr, who guided Green Bay to NFL titles in 1961 and 1962 and who led the league in passing last year, is lost for an indefinite period with a hairline fracture to a bone in his throwing hand. An unconfirmed report said he could miss as much as six weeks action. The injury came just as the Packers .made it into first place in the Western Division for the first time this season and just as they were heading into what is probably the roughest part of their 1963 schedule. Green Bay meets the Colts, Lions and Bears away from home in three of their next six. games. Only the Minnesota’ Vikings are scheduled for Green Bay, with Pittsburgh and San Francisco slated for Milwaukee appearances. Starr was hurt in the third period of Sunday’s 30-7 victory at St. Louis. The win was Green Bay’s fifth in a row and tied the defending champs for the top spot with the Bears, upset losers at San Francisco Sunday. Starr was tackled by Cardinal cornerback Jimmy Hill on a running play and Hill wds ejected for the game for sluggig the Packers star in the face. “I don’t know what happened on the play when I hurt it,” Starr said. “But it was the back of my hand and it was sore.” Starr said there was little pain Monday. Starr was the NFL passing leader last year with a percentage of 62.5 on 178 completions in 285 throws for 2,438 . yards rfind 12 touchdowns. Erie Lackawanna y Renovates Coaches CLEVELAND — To make passenger service more attractive and looking ahead to increased travel during the New York World’s Fair in 1964 and 1965, Erie Lackawanna railroad has expanded its program of renovating passenger-carrying equipment, according to William White, chairman.

Illinois Star Voted Lineman OfTheWeek SPINGFIELD, 111. (UPD — Before he had played a game, his coach declared he was worthy of the Heisman Trophy, awarded annually to college football's best player. As a sophomore, he was the spiritual leader of- a losing team. As a junior, he’s the spiri tu a 1 leader, the pacemaker, for a winner. This is Dick Butkus, the University of Illinois’ standout center and linebacker, a tremendous defensive star, and United Piess International’s Midwest Lineman of the Week . Butkus played against Minnesota with a handicap in the Illini’s 16-6 victory. Yet he was outstanding on the field, the key to the Illini defense. Gopher coach Murray Warmath, who has had line stars of his own, said simply ‘‘he is one of the finest in the country, and a cinch to be the first pro draft choice.” Butkus suffered an extended elbow in the Ohio State game a week earlier, when he made 23 tackles, and worked out only lightly last week. Yet in the game, when he couldn't use his arm to make tackles on his left and had to stop the ball carrier with his shoulder or his body, he made 17 stops to bring his total for four games this year to 70. more than many college players make in a two-year career. His tackling was sb hard he forced one Minnesota fumble, to give him three for the year. The Illini have reached the opposing passer 24 times this year, with Butkus the leader on the blitz, and the Illini defense for which he calls signals has accounted for 30 of the Illini’s 56 points, recovering seven fumbles and intercepting six passes. Minnesota tried to run four times on third down Saturday and wound up with minus 17 yards, with Butkus making the tackle on three of the four plays. Yet Butkus, who plays all the defense and more than half ofz of the time on offense, doesn't believe the unbeaten but once tied Illini have reached their peak. “We still haven’t played our best game,” he said. “When our offense gets going, we’re going to hurt some people.” Butkus, despite his phenomenal performances, doesn't surprise coach Pete Elliott. “He has all the physical abilities,” Elliott said, "but more than that he has the desire. one of the most burning desires I've ever seen, to play well. He works to keep improving, and this is the way all the top players are made. “Not only does he have the ability, but he uses it to the full extent. He’s a great team player and the hardest worker we have.” Butkus is a junior, with another full season to play. Thus he can’t win the Heisman"Trophy which Elliott has awarded him until 1964. Right now there’s no reason to think that he won't.

Sports Editors Pick National All-Stars BOSTON (UPD — The St. Louis Cardinals, whose entire infield started the 1963 All-Star game in Cleveland, had to settle for just three places on tty? National League All-Star team selected by the Academy of Sports Editors. ’ Bill White, first base, Dick ’ Groat, shortstop, and Ken Boy- 1 er, third base, were the selec- ■ tees. Bill Mazeroski, the Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman whose injury gave St. Louis’ Julian Javier the starting assignment in the All-Star game, was the sports editors’ choice to round out the infield. The “world champion Los Angeles Dodgers also placed three men on the squad—two of them pitchers. Sandy Koufax was chosen as starting pitcher and Ron Perranoski was the relief man. Tommy Davis, the Dodgers’ National League batting' champion, was voted to the team as left fielder. The other three members of the squad are Willie Mays of the San Francisco Giants Centerfield. Hank Aaron of the Milwaukee Braves right field, and Johnny Edwards of the Cincinnati Reds catcher. Purdue Publicity Director Is II . LAFAYETTfe, Ind.

Ralph Houk Is Named Manager Os Year In AL NEW YORK (UPD — Ralph Houk, probably the major leagues’ No. 1 exponent of the power of positive thinking, was selected as the American League’s manager of the year today by the United Press In- # ternational. , The cfgar-smoking. 45-year old manager of the New York Yankees was named by a comrepresenting every city ~ in the majors. For winning his third straight American League pennant despite injuries to sluggers Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris, Houk was named by 16 of the experts. Charlie Dressen, who took over the Detroit Tigers in mid-season and led them to a fifth-place finish, received five votes and Al Lopez, manager of the second place Chicago White Sox, received three. The Yankees were overwhelming pre-season favorites to win the AL flag almost as easily as they did. But it is doubtful whether the experts would have rated them ‘so highly had they known both Mantle and Maris would suffer so many injuries. It was a gnawing, day-to-day situation but Houk never lost his aplomb. Ever the optimist, he simply tinkered with his outfield, let his brilliant defensive infield remain intact and maintained a steady pitching rotation. Ilie 1963 Yankees weren’t the "window breakers" of some previous years but the combination of outstanding defense, solid pitching and - “enough punch’’ proved too much for their rivals to handle. What could have liecn a season in which the Yankees “scrambled” to a pennant, in- . stead turned out to lx> a romp. Houk succeeded Casey Stengel following the 1960 World Series which the Yankees lost to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Undef Houk, the Yankees beat the Cincinnati Reds in a five-game series in 1961 and defeated the 'San Francisco Giants in a sev-en-game series in 1962. Ralph’s 1963 campaign ended on an embarrassing note when his Yan- ’ kees lost the series to the Los ' Angeles Dodgers in four coni’ secutive games.
