Yellow Jackets Score Win Over Auburn Friday Night; Commodores Whip Geneva

YELLOW JACKETS By Pete Reynolds Decatur’s Yellow Jackets gladdened the hearts of their fans Friday night when they came up with their second victory of the season, snapping a three-game losing streak as they dumped the Auburn Red Devils, 65-60, at the Decatur gym. It was also thejadkets’ second Northeastern Indiana conference win in five tries, and brought their season record to a 2-9 mark. Bill McColly’s boys led all the way after the first six minutes of play, but had to stave off a desperate Auburn rally in the closing minutes. Decatur drew first blood when Sam Blythe hit of, nine field goals after one minute had elapsed. Auburn took its first lead at 3-2, and led again ' at 6-5, the last time the Red Devils were in front. The conference rivals were tied at 9-9, but Gregg Ladd’s two-pointer put the Jackets on top to stay. The locals built up their advantage to five points, 17-12, at the end of the first quarter. The Jackets kept out in front throughout the second period, on four different occasions building their buldge up to 14 points, the last time at 37-23 with 1:12 to go, but Auburn hit its next three shots and Decatur’s lead was cut to eight, 37-29, at the long intermis- - sion. ’ : The visitors crept to within five paints late in the third quarter, but the Jackets built their margin back up to eight at the close of the bracket, 50-42. A pair of buckets by Blythe and one by John Custer offset a pair of three throws by Frank Pulver and Decatur had a 56-44 advantage with 6:30 to play. But the Red Devils were right back in the game when Jerry DeWitt connected from the field and Terry Habig hit three in a row and Decatur’s lead had melted to four, 56-52, with five to go. The Jackets steadied at this point, however, and buckets by Blythe and Dave Hammond put their margin back to eight. Pat Welch hit two in a row and when ,

Pulver dropped in his fifth twopointer, Auburn was again within two at 60-58 with nearly two minutes of playing time remaining. With Auburn pressing closely ir. an attempt to gain control of the ball, Lynn Lehman was wide open under the bucket for a pass and an easy layup, and when fouled on the shot dropped in the free throw for a five-point edge with 44 seconds to play. Habig’s ninth field goal cut the lead to three but Custer, fouled with nine seconds to play, dropped in a pair of charity tosses to ice the contest. Blythe topped the Decatur scoring with 19 points, trailed closely by Ladd with 18, for the only Jackets in double figures. ri<rag' W" Auburn with 21 and Pulver added 15. Seventeen fouls were called on each team, with' the Jackets converting 15 of 26 free throws, the Devils 10 of 20.

COMMODORES My Bob Shraluka Big Jim Schultz’ biggest scoring night of his high school career sparked Decatur’s Commodores to an 86-52 trouncing of the Geneva Cardinals Friday evening in the Cardinals gym. The victory was threefold for the Commodores. They racked up their fourth win in a row; their eighth win of the season in 12 outings, which is one more than they won all last season; and gained sweet revenge for a twopoint defeat handed them by Geneva in the holiday tourney here two weeks ago. Friday night’s contest was a complete contrast from the previous battle between the two teams, when the Commodores played a poor first half but rallied to nearly pull the game out of the fire. Last night they trailed only once, at 2-1, and after blistering the nets so rthree periods. on a filial period for the convincing win. Stop Newcomer In addition to the sterling performance turned in by Schultz, who scored 21 points, and played just briefly in the final quarter, the Commodores defensive job on-high-scoring Mike Newcomer paved the way to victory. • y ... The county's second leading scorer with a 20-ooint average. Newcomer was held to just one field goal, early in the first per- • iod, and only six points all night. Harassed by a hustling Commodore zone, and getting two early shots blocked. Newcomer was of little aid to his club all night. Schultz’s first of nine fielders with 6:25 left in the initial period gave his team a 3-2 lead, with buckets by Dan Lose, who turned in another fine performance, and Terry Mvers stretched to 7-2, as George Waning’s crew went winging to an 18-12 margin after one period. Begin Rout The rout became evident in period number two as the Commodores controlled the backboards and boosted their margin to 34-22 at halftime. Schultz opened the second half with a three-point play and Ed Kohne’s two free throws gave the Decaturites a 3925 margin, and thev pulled away to a 52-35 lead after three -periods. Coach Waning began substituting in the final period but all combinations clicked as the Commodores chalked up their biggest one-period spree of the season in outscoring their hosts by 34-17 in the final eight minutes Schultz’ 21 markers led all scorers. and ,he got plenty of help from Dan Lose with 16; Kohne with 11 and Larry Gase with 10, all in the last six minutes, Roger a n d Jerrv Buckingham did half of their team’s scoring with 14 and 12 noints respectively.
