glaring exception is that Decatur

figuring in title speculations this
year, whereas last season the ulti-
mate pennant winners weren't given
an outside chance.
Ben Davis again is the outstand-

comparable to that of their last

including two verdicts over South

It was the first mat show here in
three weeks, and the customers
turned out in big fashion for the
four-event bill.
Little Dorve romped out in front
by grabbing the first fall in 20 min
utes. Flipped into the ropes by Gus,
the New Orleans Speedster came
bounding off with both feet in the
air, proceeded to wrap his short legs
around the Sonnenberg tummy and
plop him Tor the fall.
Dorve Bounces Off and Out
The second down was a two-man
-for-all, and ended in Is min
utes with Gus, the plaster, on top.
After wearing Dorve down with a
series of forearm smashes, Sonnen-
berg again hurled him into the
ropes, and when Dorve came bounc-
ing off, toppled him over on the
mat, which not only was rather
awkward on Dorve's part, but very
disastrous as well.
Sonnenberg made quick work of
the vindup. He met Roche in the
n iddle of the ring, pasted him three
times on the ribs, then rammed his
tunmy with flying tackle and it
was curtains. The time was 80 Sec

Bulldogs Coach Instructs
His Charges to Take
Time on Long Shots.

There is no rest for the Butler
Bulldogs.
Although the team will not play
again until Wabash's courtmen in
wade the Fieldhouse on Jan. Is,
Coach Tony Hinkle is drilling mis-
boys daily on new offensive plays.
He also hopes they will find the
basket range with greater frequency.
Buffers long shots were short at
the Michigan game last week. Now
team members have been ordered to
take their time and get set" before
firing away.
TIL coming Wabash tilt will be
the last home game for the Bull
dogs before they start their road
trips. On Jan. 18 and 25 they will
journey to Earth m and Notre
Dame, respectively. Then on Jan.
81 they will start a two weeks road
tour which will include games with
Detroit, Michigan State, Western
State, Marquette, Wisconsin and
Northwestern.
1t is the Little Giants that they
are pointing for. however, Wabash
Butler basketball rivalry dates back
almost as far as the struggle for foot
ball supremacy. Since 1880, Butler
and Wabash netmen have played a
total of 80 games, an average of two
year.
In keeping with tradition, these
teams will meet at Charlottesville
for the second time on Feb. 18.
Bill Merrill and Willard Fawcett,
two fortnight second year men,
are being worked in the practice
sessions. Fawcett played an excel
lent game against Michigan, and he
may crowd Earl Gerkensmeyer, reg
ular forward, from his position,
little gym birds said.
Because many of the road games
are one night stands, Coach Hinkle
plans to develop his string
men as much as possible.
AS an innovation, public address
system is being installed in the
Fieldhouse and will be ready for
service at the Wabash game. 1t is
planned to have each play of the
game announced to the spectators.
