 Because two or three of the games which the high school basketball team was to play have been postponed there has been some protesting among many of those who have bought season tickets to the high school games, It seems they feel that they are being cheated. The executive committee of the high schools athletic association wants to correct this impression and do away with the feeling Two of the games had to be postponed because the club room could not be used and the third was postponed by the other team. Then, these games are only postponed, not cancelled, and later will follow each other rapidly. The team needs all the support possible from the town people and want them to know that they are very thankful for that already given them.
