PRACTICE OF SIGNALS OCCUPIES ATTENTION OF HIGH NET TOSSERS
Signal practice occupied the attention of the high school basketball candidates Tuesday evening when they
j worked out on the coliseum floor.
Ibis was the order of the day unt;i about 5:30 p. m., when the first and second squads were lined up and put through a rather stiff half hour of scrimmage. The local high school is coming around in pretty good shape for their opening encounter with Knight stown on the coliseum floor next Friday night. This will be a hard game foi the locals to cop because of the fact that the visitors have nlaved several
! games this season, and are as a result
more experienced. They are said to have a veteran aggregation. . Probable Lineup. The probable lineup for the beginning of next Friday's game will be Harkins and Amick at the forward jobs, with Loehrat center, and Green
; and Lovin at guards. This will be j shifted frequently it appears as there I are several boys who are about on a
par, fighting for the various positions. The high school game will be played after the Earlham-Dental contest, which, will be a curtain raiser. With the two attraction it is thought that the seating capacity of the coliseum will be taxed to the limit.
