The cheering bloc turned out en masse for the affair, and the team, student managers, coach and a guest speaker were present.

Student managers Phil Deßolt and Mike Beery each gave brief talky and coach Worthman finished oft the program by giving the kids a talk wblcb, as usual, added greatly to the excitement The cheer-leaders and cheering bloc went through several yells, and closed with an emphatic, “GOOD LUCK, TEAM!” — — D. H. 8. — Friday night the band presented another program for the basketball fans. The theme of the presentation was “Swan E” and it was very well received by the audience.

' the Adams > QbMi tral Greyhounds® in last night’rOß«’ *** game. Outcome was not known at deadline time, but everyone at M.H.S. haa their fingers crossed tight! Good luck team!!! Z — M. H. S. — Every year at about this time in February basketball or “Hoosier Hysteria" as it has been tagged, reaches its most "hysterical” heights. Locally the teams of Adams County participate in a Sectional Tournament, and the winner of thia event has the honor of representing the county hi the Regional at Fort Wayne. The eliminations continue until finally just one team remains — the State Champs. But a tourney such as this means more than just the crowning of winners. It brings to a conclusion, for some, the efforts of 4 years of practice and training —it affords an opportunity for the adults of tomorrow to battle each , other in a friendly, yet competii tive, series of gamed—lt brings tears and cheers and excitement and disappointments—it acts as an incentive tor some to pursue the Sport as a career—it stimulates the personality trait known as “good sportsmanship.” When ' the sectional is over there won’t • be just one winner, there will be nine teams and nine groups of fans who -will have benefited from the event. We at M.H.S. feel that . basketball is much more than just an outburst of hysteria — it is an asset to everyone of us. — M. H. S. — The high flying Eagles ended their regularly scheduled season in grand style last Friday evening when they defeated the Harlan Hawks in the Monmouth gym. The second team boys were also .victorious in their final game of this season. Our congratulations and our thanks go out to Mr. Holt, to „ Mr. Wisehart, and to both of the Eagle teams for presenting such a thrilling season of basketball. . — M. H. S. —I.; .. .Th?
