Several interesting tits are ON the
ketball league for Friday. The most
important game Oh the docket Is the
one between Edinburg and EocouCh
in the upper bracket. This will bring
the leader and ~runner-up together.
The Edinburg Fire boys yet have 10
drop a game, while the Edcouch en-
try has lost only one out Of five.
The county seat basketeers Will be
favorites by a wide margin. They
have not had much difficulty III
handling the rest OF the field. A win
over Edcouch would fortify the
Edinburgers in as much as 1t would
put the skidS under the r~unners-up.
This Is what Is likely to happen, &C
cording 70 the dope pail.
The remainder OF the upper
bracket games do not promise much
fireworks. Donna should defeat Ray

expected to be highly interesting,
however, and q large crowd o. fans

blood letting. The Methodists have
been inactive for two games and
may be off their stride a bit.
The Model Laundry Cleaners will
be out for revenge with blood III
