Saturday Four evenly matched basketball teams, the strongest in Eastern Utah, will take the floor at the Carbon high school Thursday in the opening round round robin of the annual three-da-y tournament to determine the championship of Region B. The winning quint will represent this region in the state finals at Salt Lake the middle of this month. Participants in the colorful hoop carnival, generally recognized as the biggest athletic event in this part of the state, will be Carbon high of Price, champions of the Central district; Roosevelt, title winners in the northern division; Grand high of Mo-a- b, victors in the eastern district, and Central high of Castle Dale, runner-u- p to Carbon in the central sector. Six games will be played, two each evening. In the first contest starting at 8:00 p. m., Roosevelt will oppose Grand, after which Carbon will engage Central. The winners will play the losers Friday evening, and the same procedure will be followed Saturday. Basketball fans are assured of six snappy contests, every one of. the teams being in good shape for the tournament and determined to carry away top honors. All signs point to the most thrilling round robin tournament in the history of the region. It is doubtful if four teams ever entered the classic. with more equal chances than the above quints. . Confidence abounds at the Roosevelt high school, and the Rough Riders feel that titty are destined to enter the state tournament far the first time. In upsetting Uintah high school, perennial champions of the northern district, the Roosevelt five left no doubt as to its strength. This champions scored two convincing victories over Uintah,' and proved that they were in tip-tshape for the tournament by defeating the Vemalites in a practice game Friday. Although Carbon sewed a 28-victory over Roosevelt during the practice season, the latter team is virtually certain that the'Mlners will be unable to repeat. Supporters of the Rough Riders point out that Carbon was outplayed during three quarters of the tussle. To further their arguments, the Basin fans call attention to the fact that Carbon has lost Claude Cowley, who was an important factor in the Coaldiggers victory, and that the Roosevelt team was not at its full strength when it appeared here, being without the services of two regulars. Wlscambe and Frederickson have been the big guns in Roosevelt's offensive, and have been capably assisted on the firing line by Wardle, one of the best guards ever produced in the region. Mohlman at center and Allred at guard complete the first team, which is an exceptionally well balanced outfit Smith, Larsen and G. Mohlman are the reserves upon whom Coach Lynn Taylor will depend the most . Carbon high easily captured the Central district title, winning seven . op 21 (Continued On Pass Four) CAST PREPARING FOR SCHOOL PLAY A student cast of 12 members is rehearsing for the annual Carbon high play, "The King Rides By," which will be presented Wednesday, March 15, at the Carbon high auditorium under the direction of Miss Virgie Mulliner. Members of the cast and the characters they will portray are, respectively, as follows: Reed Adams, Judge Dorset; Willard Luce, Simmons; Vivian Peacock, Loranda; Virginia Lee Cecily; Vivian Bum, Valeria; John Cook, Cash McCord; James Kiscma-taki- s. Stuffy; Christine Axelgard, Miss Wells; Grant McIntyre, Captain Wheatley; Wanda Miner, Deborah; Jack Owens, Harold; Kimball Rugger!, baroness. The action of this clever comedy is built around the visit of a prince in the home of Judge Edmund Dorset and his wife, Cecily. In anticipation of royalty, Cecily has employed two new and very unusual servants, Simmons and Loranda, who are known in the underworld as the Duke and LiL ' Dorset compliments her on her good judgment, for the servants appear to be decidedly above. the average in ability and intelligence. However, the servants intend to cash in on the jewelry" to be worn in honor of the visiting nobility. A few hours later, two intruders, enter he house through the windows and Simmons recognizes them as his fellow crooks, Cash McCord and Stufsplit is arfy. A new three-wa- y ranged and then comes the news that the prince has cancelled his visit Cash is pressed into service to im personate the prince and Stuffy is thrust into the role of his lieutenant attache. To further complicate matters, Baroness von Scheubach arrives to visit her fanner husband, the judge, bringing their daughter, Valeria, who she hopes to marry to the prince. From here event follows event in very rapid succession. The impersonations are decidedly successful. Katherine Wells of the Chicago Tribune, appears at the reception for the prince, recognizes the crooks and begins plans for their exposure and ar- rest proximately 125 students of the Central school are being served daily with a hot lunch. The is being assisted in the project by the county relief committee and various civic and religious organizations. The food is served to undernourished children and to students who bring their lunches to school. Those in charge of the movement declare that pupils who are unable to go home for lunch do not obtain the necessary nutrition from cold food. Students who are properly nourished and who are able to go home at noon are asked not to stay for the lunch served at the school. P-T- -A city approximately (4200 was authorized on Monday evening by members of the city council, who instructed Treasurer Rulon A. Bryner to purchase $10,000 worth at 1910 waterworks bands.
