District Tourney Opens

be a real stumbling block for AM
team in the district. They have
won most of their games both al
home and on other floors.
Outlook has almost a new team
this year. but n that has been
brought up from the grades and
has proved itself to be one of the
strongest in this corner of the
state.
Whitehall has a team that should
do better than in the game PLAYED
against Plentywood last week. A
majority of the team members var
ticipated in the tournament last
year. and when they hit their stride
they may prove to be far stronger
than 1t appeared when here.
Flaxville, from reports, has an
other fast team, and has been
making a good record so far this
season. Their players, Usually
small, are in the game every min
ute and 1t won't pay any team to
let up while playing this group OF
players.
Peerless Is returning to the tour
nament for the second time. and
is an uncertain quantity. Little
has been learned of their work this
season. They have lost the older
Pickett, their star of last wear
who was placed ON the all district
team.
Scobey has a new team this year,
but n that has much latent
strength. They should have de-
veloped much since their game
here and will be dangerous for any
opponent.
Our old rivals, Medicine Lake,
seem to have built up another
team. They showed fine
In both their PlentyW0od
games and will be hard to beat.
P1entywood has been improving
after being reorganized
and are conceding nothing to any
OF their prospective opponents.
SkQr contends that other
-eams will have to be good to beat
he Wildcats next week.
Season tickets will again be sold
'or all games. Prices are $3.50 for
adults and $1.00 for students. Ey-
who Is interested in basket
ball will get his moneys worth In
entertainment. There viii be Is
games in all, seven OF them being
In the evening. The other
sames are played, two at each SEES
In the mornings and after
ICONS Of Thursday and Friday. BY
study OF the posters, one can fol-
the progress OF the games as
he tournament advances. An at
empt has been made to have good
.vening sessions for the Benefit OF
hose who cannot attend during the
anytime. However, upsets may oc-
ur and no one can predict which
cams will advance after the first
ound. A business mems season
lcket will again be sold for the
sc of merchants who must attend
their regular duties during the
lorning and afternoon games.
