Tuesday afternoon to play the Clarks-
dale Athletic Club team. The Gym
class team has been practicing for
the game and are confident of a
victory over the Clarksdale team.
The Gym boys began the basketball
season late and have not been able to
play but one game this season, that
being with the Fort Morgan Army
Team, resulting in a victory of % to
II for the Gym team. The game with
Clarksdale will probably be the last
game of the season for them. Mr.
Wilmington and Coach Dubard are
making efforts to keep the team to-
.gether for next season, and if SO, they
hope to bring the championship title
to Greenwood.

Greenwood Defeats
Belzoni High School

In an exceptionally we'll played
game of basketball, the Greenwood
High School boys outpointed the team
from Belzoni yesterday afternoon,
winning by a score Of "a to 10. The
VISITORS counted most Of their points
by fouls, making only two baskets
from the field, while the local team,
by superior passing, scored ten field
goals.
For Greenwood, Dix was easily the
star of the game, in the last half
scoring ten points from the field. His
ability to handle the ball, york it
down the field, and play the game IN
the open was exceptional. ,Weiner at
guard played a fine game. For Bel
zoni, Topp played the best game. =
The Greenwood team was composed
of Williford, Weiner, McCarty, DIX
and Davidson and the Belzoni Five
were, Day, Perkins Topp Balm anc

AN OPEN LETTER

Feel that we would be derelict in
our duty and that we would not be
serving as we should, the business and
professional interests of Greenwood
and the Mississippi Delta, were we
not to put before them the present
paper situation as we see 1t.
10 days ago there was an unexpected
and decided advance on al bonds flats
ledgers, envelopes, tags, etc. In some
instances as high as rs per cent.
However, the advance. in price IS
really a small matter when even at
the advanced prices it is Impossible
to get stock in lots Of instances. And
the worst of the whole business Is
that the situation is growing worse
every day. We have had this brought
to our attention most forcibly during
the past three weeks for the reason
that we have a large number OF both
large and small jobs that we are un-
able to complete owing to u IN
ability to get the material to complete
them with.
We strongly urge that you look over
your stationary supplies and see what
you are going to need within the next
six or eight months and take the mat
ter up with your printer NOW.
Yours truly,
LAWRENCE PRINTING CO., Inc
