Cony High Basketball Team
May Enter Tournaments

AS the basketball season draws
nearer to a close, the Cony Squad who.
at the present time, have made d
great record are turning theig eyes
with considerable interest towards two
coming tournaments. One at the
University of Maine. which will be
composed of one team from each coun-
ty Of the State. There is no question
as to Cony's going should they so de-
eide, because they have already dis
played their superiority over any of
the Kennebec teams. Just now how
ever. they are considering the posi-
bility of being chosen to take part in
the Tufts College New England Cham
r 'onship at Boston, some time the mid
die of March. Two teams from
Maine will go. In the Southeastern
part, Cony, Morse and Edward Little
High schools are the contenders. In
the North part of the State, Bangor,
Dexter and Mattanawock High schools
seem to be the only ones in the run
ming. 1t is possible that one team
from each of these groups may be
chosen although it is by no means ne
ceSsary that such course will have
to be pursued. The final choice rests
with W. e. O'Connell of Portland who
is the State Director of Official Bas-
ket Ball Rules and Regulations.
Cony would like to go, but would
rather be chosen on merit and have
the best team that the State can pro-
duce appear to defend the prestige
that the Maine schools already hold.
