HANDBALL Is presenting quite
n problem for the Brownsville Ath-
letic club. The question Is now up
before the organization whether to
construct a court inside is quar-
tiers at Hinkley's hall. II this IS
done. II Will become necessary to
do away with the basketball court
which Is in use AZ present. There
is not enough for the two.
Officials plan TO take a vote on the
proposition tonight at a called meet
ing. II was suggested that the
handball court be constructed out
side the hall. II has been found,
however, that this cost would be
almost prohlbitiyC. IL has settled
down 10 q question oi either basket
ball or handball.
THE PROPOSITION az the VAL
Lev Amateur Basketball leagues
championship round robin will be
settled at a called meeting Of the
loop at Harrington Monday night.
This is q matter which should be
weighed well. for financing the trip
OF the Valley teams TO the state
meet is going TO be a high hurdle.
At a recent tanning bee, SPITE Clark
outlined the following schedule loI
the round robin:

1T WAS suggested that each OF
these games be played in separate
cities. instead Of being staged IN the
form Of double headers. This would
not only give a larger number Of

went on to tell her Of his home, q
rude log affair in the forest where
his father had cleared away the
trees. They had been very poor for
a long time and he, Daniel, had
been allowed to take the furs of
animals he had trapped to the city
to try to earn some money. How
disappointed they would be rIw,
when he came home with no furs
and with no money either! But
I ought to be grateful for meeting
you," he said suddenly to Angie.
"And now must be getting on my

Jumping up, he fumbled in his

you've been so good to me, I want

he was gone and Angie, unwrapping
the package, found the very thing
she had wanted for a long time, a
lovely ruby ring! She was busy
looking at 1t and admiring It when
just then she heard the voices Of

"Why, here it is, Grandie," sang
