Model High, boys and girls teams,
on the new Madison High gym floor.
The games were evenly divided, Mad
ison High winning the girls game by

Her closest rival teammate was Miss
Sara Shearard, forward, who scored
8 points. Both of these girls made
four field goals, Miss James making
five free throws out of eight chances
and Miss Shearard one out Of two.
This is the first season that Model
High has had a girls team, none of
the players having had any previous
experience on the floor. There are
several on this team who have the
making of good basket ball players.
From the manner of playing it seems
that Madison High will have a winner
in its girls team since these players
put over some real playing in their
first game of the season.
In the boys game, the fast work
of the entire Model High team show
ed up to good advantage in the final
| count of the score. During the first
few minutes of play, Kit Crutche1
scored field goal, which started off
his team in good form. The passing
of Evans at forward and Covington
at guard, kept the ball out of their
opponents end of the floor during the
first part of the game. In the last
half, the Madison High team was able
to get away with some excellent work
scoring four field goals in quick order
Stone, forward on Madison HIGH
scored two field goals and his team
mate, Blevins, center, was able tc
place the bal thru the hoop fer tvs
more goals.
The Model High team had the wind
in their favor OH account of their
weight. Every member of this team
has had some excellent work during
! the fall on the football team. This
| coupled with the intensive training
that Coach Hembree has been giving
i them during the past week, placed
team in excellent condition for this
game.
The point makers on the Model
High team were Covington, who
brought home 10 out of 20 points
Salyer and Kit Crutcher, each making
four points and Bal Luxon two. The
guards covered well at all stages OF
the game, staying with their men
A number of times both teams pull
ed some pretty stuff in passing the
ball down the floor.
Coach Hembree, of the Model Hlgl
team, as had some difficulty in Sc
lecting men to play in the games be,
cause of the excellent material thai
has shown up on the floor in the l.
men from whom to choose. Because
of this, there has been no selection
made for membership on the. frs
team. The next game is scheduled
with Winchester High on next Frida,
night. 1t is expected that temporar!
berths will be found by that time fo
seven or eight of the men, thes,
places at all times being subject t.
change, should the quality of worl
be overshadowed by one of the othe
men in practice. The lineup of th
