Show d'Scribing It by Frank Allan After a successful season of sport on the gridiron, the Southerners South-erners have turned to basketball drills. All three teams have had several games thus far, and if we are to gather anything from them it would be only a slight show of their potential strength. From all appearances the only threat to South's possession of the casaba crown will be from the hill-toppers. hill-toppers. Recent articles in the daily papers rumored that Brooks artid Lence will be unable to be on East's "A", therefore hampering the team greatly. But we're wondering won-dering if it isn't just something to make the Cubs over confident. Despite rumored changes in the "C" teams this year, the midgets will continue as usual, and Nate Long will remain as the midgets' coach until he goes into the. armed forces at some future date. It may be interesting to know that East's midgets haven't started practices as yet. , The "B" team looks better than was expected and unless East unleashes un-leashes an amazing team the juniors jun-iors should hold their own. Outstanding Out-standing men that should bear watching are Wally Jones and Morris Mor-ris Kjar. In case you're interested West's juniors were beaten 20-1 by Murray's sophomores. Looking forward with an opto-mistic opto-mistic glance. South's chances for retaining the championship are good, but chances for another undefeated un-defeated season are practically nil. Nevertheless, all three squads will be fighting in every game. Support them and we'll make it five straight titles. Cub gridders dropped a "high and mighty" East high eleven in the last game of the season and if it had not been for a "B" team loss of a night earlier, South would have annexed the title for the first time in its history. Although many think the Ecider played a better game, it takes a winning team to stand with their backs to the wall and hold as the Cubs did. If the fellows on the basketball teams can inherit some of that "for South high glory spirit," spir-it," we can go through the season with few defeats. |
