from last years tourney
will be the Economy team. 1t has
been playing good brand of game
this year and has a very good record.
Should it be fortunate enough to take
the number of the Fountain City five
in its first game it will no doubt go
UP to the semi-finals. Fisher and Lun-
dy have been carrying the brunt of the
work for the Economy five this year.
Other men On the squad are: F. Cain,
K. Weyl, H. Beard, H. Cain, Elliott,
Jordan, Lundy. Oler and Marshall.
Fountain City Hopeful.
Fountain City is coming here with
high expectations of climbing up to
the final game, having drawn a fairly
easy schedule. Its first game is with
Economy. Should Fountain City win
it probably will go to the semi-finals
when it will meet Hagerstown.
Hatfield Mainstay.
Hatfield is considered the mainstap
of the team and the offense is built
up around the husky pivot man who
has proven a whale both on the de-
tense and offense. Miller at back
guard also puts up good game I'M
der the basket and will be hard man
to get around. Evans, floor guard,
also will prove a hard man to stop.
c. Miller, Pegg, Thomas, knight,
Rupe, Smith, Lacey, make up the re-
mainder of the squad.
This is Everton's first appearance at
a local tournament and little is known
as to its ability, although it is said
to have a fairly fast team. Scott and
Beringer are said to be the strong
points on the team. Other men are,
Brandenburg, Funk, Neff, Thomas.
Masters, Goble.
centerviIIe Veteran Five.
Centerville comes to the district
tourney with five veterans to start the
game against Connersville, and it is
expected that they will give Corners.
vile a great fight
Fisher, Terry, Cook, Davis AMI
Chambers are all old men on the team
and with the three remaining men,
Harris, Bowman and Baker or Dodd-
ridge, they should have plenty of ma
terial for the tourney.
The team has won from manv
strong fives this year and has a chance
to win the first game.
Although little inconsistent IT
times, the Cambridge City lads are
rounding into form and should steI
fairly fast in the first two games OF
the tournament.
The players are veterans of the
court game and such men as Dairy
Ward, Ellsbury, Brumf1eld, Chapman
Kutter, Hines, Huddleston and Chase
can be depended upon to carry the
team high in the tourney.
They have been well coached ant
the kinks have been ironed out. WITH
this in mind, fans may expect a goo(
battle from Coach Winters men.
ConnersviIIe Dangerous.
Connersville high school will come
to the tourney with the shadow of {
defeat by the Richmond five hanging
over its head. Even though this il
true, it has splendid chance to win
even after the hard fights with Cen
terville and Cambridge.
The lineup is composed of severa
stars, such as M. Williams, Ridge, Rob
inson, Sparks, G. Williams, Neal, Tai
man, Siler, Davis and Hibbs. M. VIII
liams, forward, is considered its bes
man on the offensive, and is capabl,
