Show Dixie-Hurricane Play Opener Friday, Jan. 8th Wolves Tackle Parowan On Enterprise Court; Cedar High Plays at Valley The Dixie high school basketball team goes to Hurricane Friday night to pry the lid off what promises to be a boiling hot series of games in the Dixie league this year. This first game will be of no low temperature itself. There is only one means of comparing the relative strength of the two teams. Both have played at Beaver. Dixie lost by one point, three weeks ago, while Hurricane won by a six-point margin just last week. Such a comparison makes the Flyers once more the underdog, but it will be a hotly contested game. Both teams are depending in the main on last year's letter-men, letter-men, but Hurricane's loss of Langston will be keenly felt by Coach Brooks. The Flyers have one advantage in that they have played in more practice games and should thus be in a little better condition for the opening fracas. Coach Hafen's boys lost only one game in the holiday tournament tourna-ment here, and that to a strong Fireman team in an extra period. They played a group of college and alumni players in the final game, winning- the championship, after the Firemen dropped out of the tourney. It took the Flyers two extra periods to win this one 45-42, -V' it gives some indication indica-tion of tuemina of the team.
