ELEVENS May
PLAY DURING
LEGION MEET
SCHOOL GRIDDERs PROPOSE
NOCTURNAL GAME FOR EN-
TERTAINMENT OF VISITING
MEMBERS

/ Key West high school boys are
ready to give the American
Legion convention the added fea-
ture of a night football game, if
they can get support from city
officials and the convention cor
poration.
Two elevens, the Park Tigers
and the Wild Cats, already have
been organized and are staging
secret workouts in preparation
for the proposed game on the
night Of April "a.
i John r. Offutt, school athletic
director, has been approached by
the boys to act as coach. A vet
eran of Stetson's Hatters in the
Florida conference and of De-
Land high school grid play, Offutt
will be asked to train the local
teams for the proposed game
during the convention and for
participation in a tournament
when the regular football season
opens in September
Boys who will make up the
teams have pointed out that a
little REIMBURSEMENT of lights at
Bayview Park would illuminate
the present dark spots and, give
them plenty of light to play a
night game.
To overcome their lack of
equipment, which now consists
only of that owned. by the in
dividual players, the bows saw
they will contact other high
schools to learn if they can buy
used material at nominal prices.
Also, if the games get underway
as scheduled, they will use any
money collected to outfit the
competing teams.
The teams which would take
part in the convention night
game are fully manned and sew
eral have had varsity expert
ence.
AS it stands now, the boys
plan to meet as often as possible
from now until September and
then organize a league, bringing
Key West its first organized
football in years.
Players on the two organized
teams are:
PARK TIGERS-John Ogden.

Fighting furiously amidst a
cannonade of lightning passes the
Seven Dragons, Seattle's young
Negro basketeers, left the battle
field with the knowledge that they
had met their Waterloo when an
overpowering Green Lake team
defeated them with score of 38
to 80 at the Green Lake playfield
Monday night.
If the group of enthusiastic on
lockers expected to see total con-
flict they were not disappointed
for from the start both teams
fought with a grim determination
seldom seen in championship tour
, naments.
Green Lake took the lead in the
first quarter with a score of 8 to
7, and held it covetously, until
with two minutes to play in the
second quarter the Dragons tied
the score IA to IA. This was short
lived, though, for at the end If
the half it was Green Lake 10,
Seven Dragons 16.
The Dragons-Johnny Walker,
Billy Anderson, Gilbert Gilldon,
Glenn Galerton, George Camphor
and Carl Valley gave their all,
but it was not enough to stay the
steadily rising lead of the Green
Lakers. With minutes left in the
third quarter it was Green Lake
"a, Seven Dragons 10. More bas-
kets were made by both teams
and at the end of the third the
Green Lakers led 30 to %.
During the latter part of the
fourth quarter the fighting was
at fever pitch; with 4 minutes left
to play the score was Green Lake
46, Dragons "a and when the
whistle blew ending the game the
final score read Green Lake 3S,
Seven Dragons 80.
The Seven Dragons lost the
game, but their defeat is over
Swallowed by their courageous
fight to the end. Of such valiants
as these champions are made.
