Jack Hegrencss of Mandan when he

THIS EVENING
R4 esSss
Traditional Game to Start at
s O'Clock-AMmni Are
Hopeful For Victory

Playing tonight at the high school
gym. members Of the Alumni basket
! ball team will have an opportunity to
see just how much they remember
about basketball when they meet the
Demons. ..
In last years Demon .Alumni
game the Alumni were victor
ious and they have hopes OF re-
peating their win this year. Such
former luminaries as Middaugh,
Robidou. Evdahl, Doyle, Regis ter,
Shepherd, Hollenbeck. Hass and 9th
ers, will be in the lineup.
Coach Collins has been giving his
men thorough drilling on offense
and defense and the iadecision which
was evident in earlier games has to
a great extent disappeared.
In the tentative Demon lineup will
be McGettigan and Henry Brown at
forwards, Olson and dollhouse at
guards and Er,; Benser at center.
Wut2ke and Slattery may also get in
during part Of the game.
Wutzke has lost rome Of his speed
and dash and will undoubtedly show
up well. while McGettigan has Bios
somed forth into a likely man and
seems an outstanding candidate for
a permanent berth at forward.
Ernie Bcnser has done some good
work at center and can be expected
to hold that position, while Olson,
whose ability 20 Craze the loops has
steadily improved, will be another
threat to the alumni.
Those who saw Middaugh. Robidou,
Livdah! and Doyle play in the Phan-
m-Training school game last night
are of the opinion that even if the
alumni do not win this year they
are going to give the Demons several
bad scares.
The game is to start at 8 o'clock,
while preliminary game between
two junior high midget teams, will
start at o'clock. The lineup for the
Alumni has not yet been decided. as
