Heaton Bros. Make Fine Record In Basketball Boys who won recognition for themselves and their Dixie school in years past have been swinging to new glories in Reno's basketball basket-ball season according to newspapers news-papers just received from that area. Starring with Reno's M Men are the three Heaton brothers, broth-ers, Garn, Keith and Volma, and "Zug" Bennett, who made four of the five to win the All-town team tourney recently. The other team mate was Willie Beko. After running up high scores for their team in the M Men tournament the quintet staged a game with Hawthorne Knights of Pythias, March 21st, winning 36 to 28 in a hard-fought battle, says the Reno paper, and finishing the game with only four players. Taking Tak-ing in their, sweep the United States Marines, John's Bar, Sparks and finally the Hawthorne team, with Garn Heaton, captain, walked off with the 1942 Andy Milich revolving re-volving trophy and plenty of commendation com-mendation from press and sports leaders, who followed the play by with keen interest. It seems this is a rather unusualy event to have the M Men tangle with the other teams, but apparently the tournament aroused plenty of in-trest in-trest in Reno.
