Sullivan and Lyons are favored to
top the big field. Both list only one
setdown this campaign.
Flat Rock and Oblong, both I'M
beaten, are the strongest Illinois
contenders. Yes, that's the name Of
the town-Oblong. But how the boys
can handle the spheroid! They
play square and fair, though. How
did 1 get angled off on that? The
Loganberries could never use their
merry go-round against Oblong.
They'd run into the corners.
Which ingloriously ends my first
essay on the Wabash. Valley tourna-
ment.
A SIZABLE advertisement in
Arecent issue of the Louisville
Courier journal reads: "JEF'FER-
SONVILLE, the home of the Red
Devil baSketeers and Palmolive Soap.
This combination has cleaned IL
teams to date"
The funny thing about it, though,
is that the ad is sponsored by coal
company. Perhaps they didn't care
to link the Red Devils with coal
coal, sooner or later, goes up in
smoke.
Coal and soap companies are pals
that form an endless chain. Your
shirt gets dirty with coal SCOT, and
you wash it with soap to get dirty
again.
But look, the ad continues: "A
big wash or war dance with the
INDIANS at Anderson on Feb. 2. :.
SPECIAL TRAIN BIG FOUR
r. R. E. A Big Wash-we'll yell :.
A War Dance--well cry
These special train encourages are
quite the rage with Jeffersonville
fans. More than 500 of 'em rode
the ties to Logansport. Some writer
down around New Albany way re-
marks that they'd better get their
fill of train riding before March rolls
around -.
But that's ahead Of the story. Many
happenings of Importance will take plsc
before Feb. 2. Which brings me to to-
morrow nights headaches. And that!
the. right word. HoosierdoOm's toutet
teams are turning turtle SO fast yO uget {
dull throbbing just trying to keep up will
'em. Logansport hit the skids. and still
is hanging in uncertainty. Franklin ha:

seven other teams. Here's the way Back
