Especial Dispatch to West Virginian)
BUCKHANNON, March 16. = In
spite of the fact that it got started one
day late because of the floods which
demoralized railroad traffic over a
large part OF the state the basketball
tournament at West Virginia wesleyan
probably viii turn out 10 be the most
successful event OF the series.
The town is filled with visitors The
hotels and boarding houses overnoTec
early and the towuSpeopIe have shown
the finest possible kind OF hospitality
in not only taking in the people who
have locked here for the big event but
in also seeing that they get plenty TO
eat.
Harry. Vance, in charge OF all ath-
letic activities at West Virginia Wes-
leyan, is managing the tournament
ardhe is being ably assist by a large
corps of enthusiastic Wesleyan STU
dents. The crowd at all the preliml-
nary games have been very large, at
least l 600 spectators have seen every
contest. 1t is expected that the finals
tonight will be witnessed by more than
1000. All the games are being played
on the college gymnasium floor.
Some of the teams experienced great
difficulty in getting here and some OF
them had to walk part of the distance.
Parsons, the five which was defeated
by Fairmout last evening, did not have
a ghost of a show. The party had
hiked seven miles in order to get here
and the men went onto the floor dead
tired.
Fairmont is giving the best that it
i n L has
it will be able to stay until the finals.
Buckhannon, Wellsburg, ParkersbuTg
and Sutton are all showing good form.
WeIlsburg has been especially good
but has not been able TO locate the baS-
kets so there have been no high scores
TO its credit. Buckhannon' form III
the game with Fairview also was Of
superior quality. F. E. Davis who has
refereed all the state tournaments is
officiating again this year and IS CIV
ing satisfaction.
Farmont is making splendid bid
for the Fleming cheering cup, which
as last year won by that town. The
Fairmont bunch is oUtnumbercd bu It
is putting a great deal OF punch behind
every yell, and there is bare possibil-
ity that it will win again this year. Elk
ms. Moundsville and WelIsSurg are all
well up in the roofing contest and the
well known welkin is ringing as it ner-
er did before in this town which is
used TO outbursts OF college exUbeE
ance.
The train service is again normal
and a special train to Weston after the
tournament ends tonight VIII start
many of the visitors on their way home.
