Alexander
Pantherettes
Set New Record

Brookhaven, Miss. Jan. 8.-The
girls basketball team of Alexander
High School, Brookhaven, Miss,
opened their season Thursday
night, January 5, with bang by
breaking all high school records.
They defeated the Magee High
School girls by an overwhelming
score of 93-12. No high school
girls team has ever scored as many
points according to available rec
ofds.
In 1854 the Alexander Panther
cites broke all records by scoring
80 points on Jim Hill High School
of Jackson. But this present team
broke it's own record last week by
scoring SO points.
Miss E. 2. Thompson, their
coach, says that these accomplish
ments were possible because of reg
ular hard practice, thorough
knowledge of the rules of the
game, good craftsmanship and ex-
cellent team work.
This team will be in there fight
ing for that State Championship
again this year. Look for them as
they play in your vicinity, and
they promise you a we'll played
thrilling game.
So hats off to those Golden Pan
therettes of Alexander High, of
