HOOP SEASON
TO BEGIN SOON
District Tournament Forces School to
Begin Games About Two Weeks
Earlier Than Usual

Due to the fact that there will be a
district tournament this year at We
natchee in which the county champ
ions of Grant, Douglas, Chelan and
Okanogan counties will vie for the
right to represent the district at the
state tourney, basketball season will
start a couple of weeks earlier than
usual. In the past several years there
has been no representative from these
counties at the state tournaments, due
to the feeling among school admins
traitors that too many tournaments
were hardship upon the boys
health However some of the schools
have wished that the tournament be
resumed and this year it was necessary
for the North Central District to be
represented at the state tournament
or forfeit its right to be represented
in all future tournaments With i'm
proving financial conditions every
where it was also felt that the schools
would have IS difficulty in financing
these trips than they would have had
in the last few seasons.
The first county game in which
Coulee City will participate will be
with Maritime in the local gymnasium
on Friday, November 6, with Coulce
City PLAYING at Neppel the following
weekend.
Girls Basketball Undecided
The question of girls basketball is
still in the air, though several schools,
Of which Coulee City is one, are trying
to get the rule lifted from the books
which prohibits girls interscholastic
competition in the North-Central Dis
trict The rule has been in the district
not been enforced until the latter part
of the last years season when one
school invoked observance of the mea-
sure. The rule was passed years ago
when girls basketball was rough and
not wen adapted for girls physical
abilities. Now that new rules prescribe
short quarters, three-zone play, and
toss-in ball at center, many of these
old objections have been done away
with, but the rule has not been can
celled. Pending developments, no girls
game have been scheduled for the To-
cal hoopsters. In the final analysis
public opinion within the district may
have to determine whether we shall
have this sport or not, so your opinion
will be welcomed by the school people.

BY the Associated Press.


NORRIS, Tenn, September IA
The Jagged shores Of 34.000-acre
Norris Lake and the adjacent noun
tain wilderness are being developed
into o huge playground by the Ten
nessee Valley Authority.
A year ago the Government began
work on the Northeastern Tennessee
project as a spot for sportsmen and
outdoor recreation. That was soon
after the T. v. A. acquired vast
protective shoreline around the res
ervoir back Of the 253-foot-high
Norris Dam across tiny Clinch River.
Two wilderness parks of several
thousand acres each, created with
the help Of the National Park Service
and c. c. G. enrolees, were opened
to the public June /. In one month
they drew more than 10000 visitors.
Prepare to Stock Lake.
On the giant reservoir, which fills
tree-lined valleys of the Cumberland
Mountains a distance Of 10 miles from
the dam, more than 80 private motor
boats now ply.
The T. v. A., in cooperation with
the United States Bureau of Hatch
cries, built q large fish hatchery and
q group of rearing pools. In a couple
of years Norris Lake will be fully
stocked with bass, Dream and other
fish.
Big Bridge Park, containing $500
acres and located IL miles above
the dam and "a miles northeast of
Knoxville, is almost entirely sur
rounded by waters Of Norris Lake. It
Is rugged and picturesque and at
one point Norris reservoir can be seen
600 feet below.
Swimming and Canoeing Provided.
About 100 acres Of the park have
been developed as a concentrated
recreational area, featured by As
acre lake formed by damming an arm
of Norris Reservoir. This lake al
ready has been stocked with small
mouthed bass and Dream. Swimming
and canoeing are encouraged.
Norris Park contains 1887 acres
and skirts Norris Lake miles. It
has % miles Of trails for horseback
riders and affords views Of the Cum
berland and Great Smoky Mountains
and the lake.
Both parks have furnished vacation
cabins which rent from $l4 to $40
a week, recreational lodges and camp
ing grounds. Sam F. Brewster of the
T. ". A. says other cabins will be
built.
A section Of Norris Park Is to be

She knew 1t would be useless to

her. Instead of the money she had
intended she took a key from the
purse.

was pressing the key into his hand
and turning back toward the bus stop.

gone in flash.
Sylvia had hope that Ernie would
wait at the hotel until she returned
and she heaved a sigh Of relief when
she found him asleep in an easy chair.
He awoke as she entered and for half
an hour they recalled old times.
Suddenly the door burst open. Peo-
pie seemed to swell into the room.
Ernie stared at them. Sylvia glanced
at him guiltily.
"Oh, yes" she explained, II told
some Of our old friends you were

FOR a moment Ernie was embar-
rassed. He glanced down at his
shabby clothes, but voices interrupted
him.
Gee, Ernie. I'm glad to see you"
How are you, fella?"

Ernie grinned. More people flowed
through the door. The clamor Of
voices increased. Greetings, shouts,
laughter, banter filled the room. Ernie
smiled happily. Sylvias heart rose.

past her.

the table. He stared at the paper.

to Sylvia's. She had seen those eyes
flash like that before-nearly a year
