JON SBORO ACCIfS
 PLAY HERE TONIGHT
Will Meet High School Basketball Team at the Y. M. C. A.
 Gymnasium.


 Arrangements were made yeste rday by Coach Bassett of the High School ; basketball team for a game tonign: with the Jonesboro Aggies. This game will come as surprise to the public as we'll as to most of the High School students. MT. Bassett has been try ing to arrange for a game with ta. Jonesboro Aggies for several weeks, but he said nothing of the matter until yesterday when he communicaI- ed with the coach of that team in Lit- tie Rock and made arrangements to bring the farmer bunch here to. night. The game will be played in the Y. M. c. A. gymnasium at o'clock. The admission will be 25 cents. In view of the fact that the game had received no advertising un- til yesterday, the team hopes that the High School students and the pub lie will turn out in order that the management may not go in the hole on the first game.
 The Jonesboro Aggies played the Y. M. c. A. team of Little Rock fast game Tuesday evening and were beaten by close score. They are said to be fast and experienced men at the game. The local boys, how ever, have shown themselves unusual ly fast in their few weeks of practice and will put up a strong fight. The game tonight will be the first of the season for the High School and it will be one of interest for followers of the sport.
 It was announced yesterday that arrangements have been complete I for two games Saturday with the Stuttgart High School, both to be played at the Y. M c. A., one in the afternoon end one Saturday nigh This will make strenuous week for the local boys and they will have to do some good playing 10 stand up to the schedule. Admission to the game saturday afternoon will be 15 cents and at night 9 cents.
