HiItSddte Comes
Here Saturday

The Hillsdale College basketball
team will open the Michigan Inter
collegiate basket ball season for the
Maroon and Cream Saturday evening
on the Alma high school court, and a
fast game is expected, the Blue and
White being rated as championship
contcnders this season.
Coach Rennie has some crack vet
Grams at Hillsdale and has new ma
terial of enough class, so that the
holes left in the Hillsdale lineup have
been effectively plugged, making the
Free Will Baptists dangerous ag-
gregation.
The Saturday game will give local
fans their first opportunity to look
over the Alma College aggregation
since the practice game with the Nor
NAL All Stars in December. They will
see far different team than they
saw then. Campbell's hopefuls are
playing a good brand of ball and
promise to make things highly inter
csting for the Hillsdale five. The To-
cal team is believed to be just about
the speediest bunch of court men in
the association, and Hillsdale will be
forced to put up a bang-up defensive
game to stop the Maroon and Cream
scoring machine.

Friday noon a mass meeting was

possible, into the student body for the
game with St. Johns. The meeting
vas probably the best held as yet this
year and indications show that the
high school may acquire little pep
after als
Mr.. Van Hocsen, former men,
Der Of the invading clan, who has re-
formed somewhat, gave the first talk.
George Elias told the bunch what the
team was going to do (and by the
way, they did it) and Crooks, chief Of
the non-combatants, told the students
what they were supposed to do. Bob
Wyatt, sometime apostle Of Alma
high school pep, aroused the fighting
spirit Of the assembled multitude with
most enthusiastic line Of oratory
and humor. AS a part Of his program
he taught the rooters a little ditty
entitled "Our Basketball Team is
Blinger," or something similar to
shat. As a suitable climax the nigh
school song was sung.
