local High school basketball team an
nounced this morning that the game
scheduled to be played in Hartford
March Il would be played as per
schedule. Following much discussion
on the part of the local school author

the postponement or even the can
collation. of further athletic contests
with Hartford would follow the last
game between the two teams, but this
notice by the coach seems to dispel
the rumor.

will have any effect on the playing of

dismissing them saves the state
much money-at least $4,000 a

guards restrain bad men they are an
obstacle to the good behavior OF
those who want to improve. Con-
