Harvey has left no idle time
on the boys hands. No sooner
do they finish up the home
schedule than they are plunged
into the melee of district COM
petition. And what a tourna-
ment it should be this year.
Several strong teams, lots of
upsets during the season, and
the Harvey lads just emerging
from a mid-season slump. If
they crack in there with four
quarter basketball, those Sank
Centre lads will send the shud-
ders down the spines of a good
many coaches; but if they play
only part time ball, well-it's all
over but the shouting.
