They were Sidney, Pierceton, North Webster, Syracuse, Milford, Claypool, Silver Lake, Leesburg, Etna Green, Mentone, Burket, Beaver Dam, Atwood and Warsaw. The four-way tourney Friday and Saturday nights at Grace college gym with Pierceton, Akron, LarwiH and South Whitley was mistakenly referred to by some as the county tourney. Actually, Mentone accepted an earlier bid to participate in a four-way toura-
