Sub-District Contests To Be
Held Here Thursday,
February 18th
FOUR TEAMS WILL PLAY
Glenwood Will Meet Winners
Of Alex Sub-District
Contests

With q most successful season
behind them, the local High School
basseteers face the District on
slanght with the first game at
Alexandria in competition with
that team at 900 o'clock p. NJ, on
March 9Th.
The Lads" under the leadership
Of Coach Gene Harvey, have come
through the season with record
which has seldom been equalled
and possibly never been beaten in
Sank Centre basketball history.
There Is, at the time Of writing.
only one difficult conference SEES
sion in store for the boys. The To-
Gals travel to Melrose tomorrow,
Friday, to complete their schedule.
It is likely with some Of the bask-
etball out OF their system which
they displayed against Osakis that
the boys will work doggedly to
take this game. In the tournament
we face a team which, though we
have defeated twice before, will not
be driven off the floor without a
battle. The boys will need all the
moral support that good local
delegation can give them.
Preceding the district meet will
be the sub-district meets scheduled
to be held in this city and in Alex
andria beginning week from to-
day, Thursday, the 18th. In this
division Osalxis will meet Upsala
in one bracket. Using the Sank
Centres sakis and Sank Centre
Upsala games as a criterion Osakis
will win out in this bracket. Mel
rose will quite surely defeat Brow
erville, and then Melrose and Osa-
kis will meet. The winner Of this
match will meet Glenwood in the
district rally March 5th. In the
next double bracket Swanville will
undoubtedly romp over Willard, and
will then play the winner OF the
Grey Eagle larissa tilt, and subse-
quently will meet Long Prairie in
the district. In the Alexandria tour
namtnt Evansville will meet Hen
ming, which winner will match with
the winner Of the Underwood4Deer
Creek contest. This team will meet
the victor Of the Battle Lake Bran
don, and Parkers Prairie-Bertha
tilts. Parkers has been going
strong this year though they have
not included in their schedule extra
strong teams. They will, however,
probably be the winner of this
bracket. We have then in the dis
trict meet probably Deer Creek or
Henning meeting Parkers Prairie,
Osalis locking horns with Glen
wood, Swanville tussling with Long
Prairie, and Sank Centre meeting
Alexandria in what promises to be
one Of the hardest fought tourna-
ments that this district has wit
messed for a long time. These
games take place on the 5th and
9Th Of March. On the 7th the win
ner Of the upper bracket meets the
winner Of the lower bracket for the
championship tilt Of the joust. This
is the year that Sank Centre is ex-
pected to go far, to be In that last
bracket, and to be fighting in that
ball game every minute.
