world. The high school team, while

of basketball and their team work
was as good as there was in the high

started the basketball season and
many teams are out for honors. Sew

and games are staged every Friday
night.

The Kendall men are handicapped
by the fact that they have no gym
and the temporary structure has not
been erected as yet. 1t may be pos
sble that some other gym or floor
will be given to the collegians until
theirs is completed.
