WILL FIGHT TO BE
BASKETBALL CHAMPS

Who is to be the king pin" of
the Negro fraternities' basketball
teams viii be decided at 8 p. m.
tonight on the Halle Q. Brown
basketball court.
The game will pit the Kappa
Alpha Psi five against the Alpha
Kappa Alpha quintet.
The Kappa team easily romped
over the Omega Psi Phi aggrega-
ton April by the score of 5O-17.
Earl Bowman and Lloyd Hogan
were the stars of this game. Both
men did a stellar job of control
ing the backboards with relative
ease. Jimmie Griffin also made
his presence known by continual
ly feeding the ball to Bowman and
Hogan.
For the Omega team, it can be
said that they never stopped try
ing to even the score. Robert Muir
ray, Calvin Norris, Tyler Howell,
Jack Shoffner, Byron Rife, Bill
McMoore and Jimmie Horris were
the players for the Omega team.
Both sides took a, lot Of good
natured ribbing from the small
but compact crowd about their
respective conditions, since most
Of the players hadn't donned a
basketball suit for several years.
Tyler Howell, Ollie Grantham,
Byron Rife and Doc Berry were
the men who seemed to receive
most of these remarks.
In spite Of the football tactics,
numerous fouls. the game was en-
joyed by all present. The game
between the Alphas and Kappas
should provide just as many
thrills and all around good fun as
the previous game with the One
gas. So come out and cheer your
favorite team along.
