C0ny Will Have
Class Basketball,

The attraction for the matinee of the
last day of the Chizzle Whizzle Fair
will be basketball games between
teams representing the four classes of
Cony. The preliminary games will be
between the Sophomore and Senior
teams and the Freshmen and Junior
teams. The winners of these two pre-
liminary games will play for a class
cup. which is offered every year by the
school. The rivalry is very strong
between the Senior and Sophomore
teams, and it is very probable that the
cup will be won by either of these two
teams, as they are both made up of
some of the fastest men in the school.
The following is a list of the men
that will probably play on the diff
ferent teams: Seniors. Jackman. Har-
wey, Leighton, Atherton, Davis and
Cummings; Juniors, Lee, Babbitt,
Miller, Calvert and Johnson; Sophie
mores, Wyer, Sampson Dickson,
Froberger and Murphy; Freshmen,
Cooper, Dennis, Stevens, Purinton, and
Taber. -
