Beginning last Friday and Saturday
the Basket Ball Tournament for the
State championship opened at Lexing'
ton, boys and girls. A number OF
clubs entered throughout the State,
the High School team Of Columbia
being one of the number. Before the
game started it was generally conSid-
cred that the Lexington team was
the crack organization of the State,
and in drawing for meets Columbia
and Lexington we're pitted against each
other, and they played the first game.
When it closed Lexington had 81
scores and Columbia 4. The result of
this contest eliminated the team here
from further participation in the
games.
we have not space to give all the
contests, but taking everything in
consideration Columbia did real we'll
and was we'll pleased with its trip.
The final contest came between Lex

was to decide the championship and
went to Lexington. 1t won by de-

did but little better than Columbia.
