have organized this team to uphold
the name of Clayton in the eyes of
the sporting world and to under
take such a task we need your
help. There is one difficulty and
that is we do not have a court of
our own to practice and play on.
This being the case all of the
games have to be played on our
opponents floor. Last week the
team defeated st. Georges by the
score of So to %. You can readily
see by the score that the team is
very strong Extensively as well as
defensively. Seville, with IL points
and Bailey with 13 points set the
pace for the locals. Billy Gooding
also played good game. We cas-

night by the score SO to 16. Seville
led with 13 points while Gooding
was next with IL points. The
