MOSCOW SCHEDULE
TO Open TONIGHT
HIGH SCHOOL BASKET BALL PROS
PECTS BRIGHT-PLAY STRONG
ALUMNI TEAM.

Moscow high school basketball
players have their first clash of hard
season tonight at o'clock in the high
school gymnasium against the Mos
COW alumni. The game is attracting
considerable interest in that strong
alumni team will test the strength of
the high school basket ball prospects
this season "Squinty Hunter, fresh
man coach at the university, All-North-
west forward and twice captain of the
university varsity, is in charge of the
alumni team.
Moscow's prospects are reasonably
bright and hopes are held out by the
students for a championship team this
year. Coach Comrada has five letter
men from last years quintet and 30
men out for basketball but he is Sill
ent on the prospects for a state cham
pionship five.
Moscow's five letter men back in
suits are Captain Baumgardner, guard;
Mickey, guard; Woody, first string
utility man last year; Nedros, ALL
State forward last year; and Roise,
forward. All told, Coach Comrada has
80 men from which to pick his team
and from the material several men
are showing unusual ppromise. The
game with the alumni will give him
an opportunity to watch the work of
candidates in an actual game.
The two Estes brothers are making
strong bids for regular berths on the
team N Estes is showing promise
as a forward and V. Estes is playing
a strong game at center and forward. |
Thompson, a brother of Or " Thomp-
son, Idaho varsity center, is coming
right along after his brothers envi-
able reputation Young Thompson is
probably Comrda's best bet for the
center position. Campbell is show
ing up as a guard or forward.
The Moscow high school alumni will
present strong team with "Skippy"
Stivers, "Squinty" Hunter, H. Cornell
son, O. Smith, Cobb Cozier and Rom
aid Romig as material The former
Moscow high school stars who ale
now playing under Coach David Mac
MILAN will not be able to play but
Hunter plans on strong team. The
proceeds of the game tonight will go
toward the basket ball fund and it is
hoped that the gate receipts will pay
for the new basket ball uniforms pur
chased by the high school athletic de-
partment.
The game tonight will be the first
of the season and there will be
long interval of three weeks before
the Moscow team has a game at
