Berne Upsets Yellow Jackets; Jets Down Eagles

Soph Leads Bears To 63-55 Win In See-Saw Thriller At Berne Tuesday Night

by Bob Shraluka Shades of Inniger and Schwartz the Bears now have a Beer (pronounced Bear)! His name is Larry Beer and he’s a 6-2 sophomore who isn’t yet big enough to fill out the legs of his uniform trunks. But he was big enough Tuesday night to lead the Swiss City lads to a 63-55 upset of the Decatur Yellow Jackets. Berne has come up with some pretty fair country ball players in recent years, such as Erv Inniger and Rod Schwartz. And this young lad looked last night like he is going to follow in their footsteps. The bespectacled Beer, who was young enough (14 years) this summer to play Pony League baseball, dumped in 28 points and controlled both backboards as the Bears surprised the Jackets with an eight-point decision in a see-saw thriller at the Berne gymnasium. Lead Changes First one team would take the lead, hold it for a while, and then relinquish the advantage. The Jackets were on top by three entering the* final period, but Beer dumped in 10 tallies to lead a 20-point rally that earned his team its first win of the year after a Saturday night loss. The Jackets again started off slowly, letting the Bears jump into a 6-0 lead before Bill Blythe converted a free throw with two minutes gone in the contest. Buckets by Max Elliott and Dave Anspaugh got the Jackets within two, 10-8, at the four-min-ute mark, but Beer hit from under and Gregg Lehman threw in a . long Anspaugh ~and Dave Flueckiger traded fielders before Elliott, who played the fu|l v 3?mjnutek tallied a threepoint play ana tipped in a rebound to cut Berne’s Ipad to 16-15 after one stanza. Take Lead Elliott scored on a tip play at the outset of the second canto for Decatur's first lead, 17-16. The Jackets built the lead to four points before Beer hit twice and Jim Beitler once, off-setting Dave Hammond’s brace of charity tosses, and tying the score at 25-all. The Bears took the lead again on a tip-in. by Beer, and his thre^ r point play with 26 seconds remaining sent the Bears to the dressing at halftime with a 32 27 lead.

Berne’s lead stayed between four and six points until Eldliott tipped in a rebound and scared on a pass from Anspaugh, who stole the bail from a Bear guard. This cut the Jacket deficit to 40-38 with 5:12 to go. Sam Blythe knotted the score 32 seconds later, but Beer connected on a rebound effort. Dave Smith then popped in a pair of buckets to give Decatur a 44-42 lead. Anspaugh tossed in a 20-footer with 1:42 left in the period, for a 46-42 Decatur lead, which Jim Beitler’s charity shot cut to three points as the third stanza closed. Bears Rebound Sam Blythe scored with just four seconds elapsed in the fnal period for Decatur’s biggest lead of the night, 48-43. But the Bears were far from done. Beer hit on a short jumper, Lehman hit from 15 feet, and Beer scored on a New Attendance Mark Set Already By AFL NEW YORK (UPI) — The American Football League has set a new season attendance record of 1,263,186 with three weeks of the season remaining, Commissioner Joe Foss announced today. ' In 47 games, the league surpassed the previous 56-game high of 1,241,741 set in 1963. STUDY ORDINANCE (Continued from Page One) consider the need of the public for taxicab service, the number of cabs in operation and the anticipated future demands.” It also provides for the installation of public taxicab waiting stands when the public convenience would merif “sstich ihstaTlations. Penalties for violations of the ordinance range from $25 •to SIOO and imprisonment not to exceed 30 days. ■Die council also approved a letter from Adams county attorney Dave Macklin. The letter outlined a county problem related to the installation of sewers in the Anthony Wayne Meadows subdivision, owned by Tony Faurote. The county commissioners have been searching for a means of having subdivisions attached io city sewer systems. Macklin’s letter stated, “The county commissioners are working with Mr. Faurote and other contractors who deal with subdivision property in Adams county in the importance of the sewer of said subdivisions. Would you please advise the county commissioners and Mr. Faurote what your requirements would be so that such a connection would be aporoved by you.” The matter was referred to the city council sewer commission.

fast break, for a 49-48 Berne Rick Beer (there’s that name again) traded buckets with Anspaugh and Lynn Lehman and the Berne quintet held a 53-52 margin with 3:25 to play. Coach Sanford Brueckheimer’s lads then ripped off the’ next six points, on buckets by Larry Beer, Lehman and Rick Beer, and iced the contest, holding a 59-52 mar-, gin with just a minute and 47 seconds remaining to play. As fitting, the sophomore Beer finished out the scoring with a pair of free throws with eight seconds to play, for his 27th and 28th markers of the night. Leads All Beer’s 28, of course, led all scorers, and mates Lehman and Rick Beer chipped in with 12 and 11 respectively. Anspaugh topped the Jackets with 16 markers and Elliott added 13, plus many rebounds. The Jackets were again poor at the charity stripe, hitting just nine of 21, but the Bears were even worse, hitting.’nine, of 22. Some weird officiating saw 18 personals and one technical on Berne and 16 personals on Decatur. Coach Brueckheimer, who used just six players, had three riding with four personals each when the contest was ended. The Jackets, who suffered their second loss, missed the presence of guard Bill Blythe who was ejected from the contest with just two minutes and 15 seconds gone in the opening period. Referee Goen thumbed the Jacket guard out an instant after he fouled Rick Beer. For what reason? No one has quite been able to get an answer to that question yet. ,YELLOW JACKETS = -FG FT TP "Eiiiott ZJ- J—-.1 6”T-sr"i3” S. Blythe 3 2-7 8 B. Blythe tt 1-1 1 Anspaugh 7 2-4 D.

I. U. Newspaper Blasts Apathy BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (UPD— Indiana University’s campus newspaper called Tuesday for an “aggressive battle to crush a prevalent apathy about football.” In a front page editorial, the Indiana Daily Student said the 1964 football team, which finished with a dismal 2-7 record, is “intensely loyal” to coach Phil Dickens. It algo noted the university had expressed its confidence in Dickens by giving him a 12-year open end contract. “It woujd appear then, that everyone js behind Dickens except the fans,” the editorial said. “But we suspect that most fans would admit that it’s not Dickens but rather the” losing tradition that disheartens them. vis Stahr as well as student organizations to join us in an aggressive battle to crush a prevalent apathy about football to be found in every walk of IU life,” it said. Stahr told the annual football banquet last week he did not come to IU to watch the demise of intercollegiate football. The Daily Student, which said last week that 20 years of losing football was “intolerable,” urged a "serious re-evaluation” of the Student Athletic Board created in 1956 to maintain school spirit. The editorial criticized the SAB for ignoring the exploits of several IU swimmers who were medal winners at the Tokyo Olympics. It also urged a’hletic director P'll Orwig to call a meeting of student organizations. ‘•What is needed now is a geod brainstorming session to ijuia up with some positive plans for next year," the editorial said. "Clearly there is a job to be done. The time to begin is now.” Skowron Gets Award CHICAGO (UPI) — Chicago White Sox first baseman Bill Skowron will receive the comeback of the year award from the Chicago chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America on Jan. 10.

Jets Win 4th In Succession, 88-60

The Flying Jets from Adams Central continued to fly high Tuesday night, recording their fourth straight victory of the 1964-65 season at the expense of the Monmouth Eagles. The Jets used three plus-20 point quarters to post an 88-60 triumph and hand the Eagles their fifth straight defeat without a win. The defending sectional champions scored at a fine .452 clip from the field, needing 73 shots for their 33 buckets. The Eagles, on the other hand, came up with one of their better shooting nights, as they connected 25 times in 76 attempts for a mark of .329. Quick Lead Coach Vernon Zurcher’s quintet was never headed as they jumped into a quick lead and rolled up 23 opening period points for a 2313 margin after the first eight minutee. The winners dumped another 25 points through the meshes in the second stanza and took a commanding 48-26 advantage to the dressing room at the main intermission. Don Elder’s Eagles cut into that margin slightly in the third period but trailed by 20, 62-42, going into the final canto. Any ideas of a rally on the part of the Monmouth quintet, however, was dispelled as Adams Central tallied 26 markers In the final eight minutes. , Lanky center Rog Schnepp led the Jet scoring parade with 19 tallies and his 13 rebounds led his club to a 52-27 margin in that department as they controlled the hoards. Guards Tony Ehrsam and Steve Smith contributed 16 noints apiece to the attack. Dannv Conrad was again the leading Eagle scorer, and high for both clubs, with 22 counters. Mike Luginbill and soohomore Richard Whitman added 10 each. The Jets converted 22 of 33 from the charity stripe, while Monmoiith wns below 50b oa a 10 for 23 performance. Twentytwo personals Were whist’< 1 d on the Eagles and 21 on Adams Central. 4
