Show Delta Hoop Squad Here Friday Night Milford basketball fans Friday night of this week will be given an opportunity of seeing a revamped and going-great-guns hoop squad in action against Delta in the first high school league home game of the season. The Delta team took the Hinckley Hinck-ley boys into camp by a score of 43 to 24 Friday night of last week but, while they were doing this, the Milford team was offering the strong Fillmore quintet some of the toughest opposition of the year, though finally losing to the much larger school by a 23-29 score. Every man on the Milford team played at Fillmore like an inspired waxed floor expert and will do so again Friday night and in the future if they feel that the town is behind them.' There is no doubt of the school being behind the team as witness the pep rallies but it is up to the citizens of the town to show some of the old spirit if the boys are to play consistently good ball. There was a time when (Milford was known as one of the most athletic-minded athletic-minded towns of the state and the t0WIl had winning teams while that spirit existed. We can have winning teams again there is no logical reason in the world why we can't but the inspiration to win must come from and be encouraged en-couraged by the townspeople. The Minersville team shffered a near rout at the hands of the Beaver Bea-ver squad in the other league game of Friday night, the box score of this and the Milford-Fill-more game being given below: MIT.POIUl 93 Player G.
