At three thirty this afternoon in the
Y. w. c. A. gymnasium the John
Marshall basketball team will play
a double header. The first team will
meet the Richmond college reserves
in the feature event of the program.
In the preliminary the Marshailite
second team which defeated Dam
willie Military Institute Saturday Will
clash with the blackstone high school
represe natives.
The John Marshall team has been
setting fast pace this season ana
are in the field for the state prep
championship and also that OF North
Carolina. To date they are unde-
feated and have trounced such teams
as Charlottesville, Raleigh and Chat
ham Training school
This was the first time In the his
tory that a team representing the lat
ter school had been defeated on It's
home floor and il Is quite feather
in the locals cap to have accomplish
ed the feat. Though the colleges
team will place a slightly heavier and
more experienced team on the moor
this afternoon tho Marshallites will
be strengthened by the return of Todd
who has lSeen on the sick list for sew
eral days and the they expect TO con-
tinue the winning streak.
The preliminary game should also
be a scrap worth seeing as the two
teams are about evenly matched and
neither has lost a game. These two
games should furnish an afternoon OF
excellent entertainment for all who
enjoy good basketball

gendered, Dempsey agreed to appear
