Show Dixie-Virgin Play Practice Tilt Tonight The high school basketball team will meet the Virgin Valley high here tonight at 8. The college team will hold its first practice tilt of the season with Carbon here Saturday night. The High Flyers have already two games to their credit, having defeated the strong Lincoln county high team from Panaca Friday night 34-27, and the Overton team at Overton Saturday night 47-17. Coach Hafen used 14 men in each of these games. The high team has now been cut to 10 men, five sophomores and five freshmen. Those withstanding with-standing the cut are: Max Gentry, Volma Heaton, Gray Wilkin, Elvin Hafen, Barnard Hafen, Le-Grande Le-Grande Frei, Junior Neilson, Arlo Hafen, Herbert Pitchforth and Wendell Tobler. The first five are the present starters. The others constitute the squad that did so well last year at the Woodard. It is the opinion of observers that this team will maintain the usual high standard of basketball in Dixie. The strength of the college team is as yet unknown, as practically prac-tically an entirely new team is being rebuilt. The game with Carbon should help determine its strength. Snow has already de-' de-' fealed Carbon in two games. |
