KENNA CLARK
MA0E CAPTAIN
POPULAR YOUNG MAN TO DIRECT
PLAYING OF HIGH SCHOOL HAs'
kET BALL TEAM.

On Saturday Kenna Clark Of this
city, was elected to thee aplaincy OF
the Fairmont High school basket ball
team for the season of 1928, Clark
following Sturgeon Bailey, this years
captain.
Clark was elected by the members
of the Leap who have won their let
ters by playing in any part of any
three games played by the High.school
basket ball team this year, these men
being Hawkins. Bailey, Amos, Wind.
sor, Stoet3er and Ice. i
Clark also won his letters, he and
Bailey having played in every game.
and the Note for Clark as captain was
unanimous with the exception of
Clarks vote for some other man.
Clark has played q wonderful game
this season. as well as has every mem.
Der of the team. Blu! Clark really earn.
ed the caplaincy BY playing in every
game the past season.
That Clark has the necessary speed
and steam is shown by the fact that
he was a sub to the Y. NJ. c. a. team
during the past season, the Fairmont
Y. NJ. G. a, team being the champions
on the state. sue
No manager has been elected for
the basket ball squad, us this election
occurs in the fall OF the year, at the
'opening Of the fall term Of school,
Clarks record as basket ball player
makes him the most reliable man for
captain which this years team pro-
duced, and with the aid OF the young
fellows Who will have acquitted some
little more weight by the opening of
the season next year, Fairmont high
school will have the championship bas-
ket ball team OF the State.
Coach Maloney is well satisfied
with the work of the team this year,
they having won four games, losing
the same number, but making their
per centage an even 500, this percent
age being better than that Of any 9TH
err team outside of the Petersburg
team, the Parkersburg High school
team claiming the State High school
championship. they not having lost
single game during the year.
Manager Amos had an attractive
schedule for his team this year, and
the only thing for which the High
school students should feelashamed is
their lack of support OF their team.
The Athletic Association did not
carp enough during the season above
expenses 10 pay for the sweaters bear
ing the High school letters, which
every man who plays in three games
is entitled to.
Last year the Athletic Association
did get the sweaters for the team, but
this year they will be unable to do so.
Captain Bailey. who acted as the
guide of the team through the season
just passed should be as proud OF the
record Of his team as the team is OF
him. he having played in every game
of the season. To him much praise is
due, and all who followed the team
through the season unite in praise Of
his work.
