BASKET BALL
GAME TODAY

This afternoon the Douglas
County High School basket ball
team will clash with the Carson
team in the first game to be played
here this season. The game will
be played on the school court and
will commence promptly at two
o'clock.
This will be the first game par
ticipated in by either team this
season and many of thr players
are new at the game. However,
both teams have been practicing
real faithfully under the instrue-
tion of competent coaches and
from all accounts a very exciting
game can be expected.
In order to defray the expenses
of the game, small admission
fee of 25 cents for adults and 10
cents for children will be charged.
The boys earnestly ask that you
all attend, not only for the sake
of the admission fee, but also for
your interest and support of the
home team.
