If Saturdays turnout was any
indication Rockville is going to
have some basketball players
worthy of special note in a few
years to come. The YMCA is Of
fering an 11-week course of in
struction for boys in the third,
fourth, fifth and sixth grades on
Saturday mornings, at the new
RMHS Gym. The course is under
the direction of Mr.. Maynard
Haithcock, who is being assisted
by members Of the high school
squads. 1t is a wonderful oppor-
tunity for our youngsters to really
learn the game. The YMCA has
been giving the course in Beth
esda for the past seven years and
1t has proved to be highly success
full. Apparently 1t is going to be
in Rockville, too, for that gym
was full of little boys, Saturday!

in Washington last week on bust
