L|tH Win SuGH DTlEnt prospects
for the coming season the local
mentors will have a hard task be-
fore them in the form Of probably
the hardest basketball schedule that
a local five has ever attempted.
To Have stiff Schedule.
Games are being arranged with
all of the state conference fives as
well as several members of the
Southwestern conference and Texas
intercollegiate conference squads,
Coach Acher is trying TO arrange
games with some Missouri Valley
schools and other colleges in the
north and west.
The annual Texas and southwest
ern trip win be taken in February
and the local authorities are arrang-
ing basketball trip which will take
the team east during the holidays
provided that the football team does
lot play a postseason game during
this period.
Coach Acher's basketball teams IN
the east were always a notable en-
try into the championship series and
always were TO be considered when
the final counting was made TO de-
termine the winner. The year of
1917 Achers quintet at Grove City
tPaD college, played 81 games and
did bow to defeat once. That year
they won over the Yale university
five twice, Penn. and Penn. State
Pitt, and all of the famous eastern
squads.
