Saturday night between the local team
and the Websters, promises to be the
hottest that ever took place in town.

opinion of all basketball experts in the
past that the Websters were invincible
on their own floor. The local team is
improving with every game and all
are in hopes that the Wares will come
to time and stop their game of wind.
