High School Team to Meet Lowell Friday Evening Here.

Lowell will show their skill to the high school in one of the last basketball games to be played under local baskets this season. They come well recommended and bring a center almost 7 feet tall. Rtensselaer will have to defeat Lowell both Friday and Tuesday to be of championship caliber. In the event of wins in these games a gre?t game is expected between Monticello and Rensselaer at the armory Feb. 27th, for the championship of northwestern Indiana. Coach Kirk attributes the defeat of the locals at Monticello to the low ceiling and the fact that the game was played under intercollegiate rules, which gave the heavier team a decided advantage. If the intervening games can be played without further injury to Oapt Groom there should be little trouble in disposing of the Wihite county lads.
