The Saginaw Aces of the Michigan
Ontario league will do their spring
training in st. Louis this year, and
with the Saginaw club arranging some
training camp games it will be posi-
BILE for the people of Gratiot county
to see the Aces in action without
leaving the county, and will assure
them of seeing what will probably be
the very best brand of ball that the
county will see this year, as there is
little expectation that any of the
towns and cities of Gratiot will at
tempt to foster a real fast diamond
aggregation this year.
The Aces are due to arrive in st.
Louis about April 5, and will have
about thirty men in the training camp
at the start Of the training season.
Some Of these men will probably be
released with "A short time. but a
greater part Of them will probably be
kept there during the entire training
season.

for the fray and as a result he was
forced to use his substitutes in the

Eight Men TO
The Tournament

Alma Highs basket ball team will
compete this week in the Central
Michigan basket ball tournament at
Mt. Pleasant Normal, the local outfit
being in class b.
Some of the strongest high school
teams in this section of the state are
in class b, which is for high schools
with less than 500 students, and it is
expected that this class will bring out
more real competition than will class
A in which Flint and Bay City will
battle for the honors. Manistee, a
team which won the Class A tourna-
ment at the Normal last year is en-
tered i'm Class b this year with the
same team that she had last year and
probably will be a favorite for the
honors. Mt. Pleasant and Alma are
expected to be the two teams that will
force Manistee to the limit to hold her
place, if she retains it.
The first two teams in Class b will
later go to the state tournament a
week later and contest there for the
state championship. The local aggre-
cation has high hope of being able
to place among the first two teams
and for the first time since the estab-
iishment Of the district tournaments,
prove strong enough to get to the
state finals.
The men who go TO Mt. Pleasant
with the local outfit are Elias, Sartor
Anderson, Veeder, Atkinson, Lamb
Patterson and Wyant.

WIN COUNTY
COURT TITLE
HIGH SCHOOL TEAM BURIED
ITHACA HIGH FIVE by COUNT
OF % TO 10.

The Alma High School basket ball
team romped OFF with the Gratiot
County court title Thursday evening
by swapping the Ithaca High quintet
under count Of % to 10, the lthacans
being outclasscd from start to finish
of the fray by the local cagers, even
in spite Of the big handicap Of the
poor floor at Ithaca.
The Ithaca team has won trays
from St. Louis and Breckenridge, the
former a five that Alma has not met
this year, so that the victory over
the Ithaca team clearly demonstrates
the right Of the Alma outfit to the
county championship. The teams in
the southern part Of the county, such
as Middleton, also fell before Ithaca.
The guarding Of the Alma team
during the entire fray was good,
the Ithaca five being able to connect
for only three field baskets during the
entire fray.
Alma had little trouble in piling up
the counters on Ithaca, Elias leading
in this respect with five hoop-ringers.
Sartor had lust one less than the big
center and Anderson added the other.
Ike" Sartor by rolling in three
fouls was the high scorer Of the night
with eleven points 20 his credit in the
game The entire team played good
ball behind the scoring end of the
quintet, this facting making possible
the Alma victory by q large margin.

quires the coexlstence Of rain and sun
shine, condition that often occurs

rarely during general cyclonic
