It was a long awaited win around the Rough Rider stables and about time, for in the last race with Uintah, I Roosevelt High finished up on the short end of the scoreboard, 31-30. Now the championship is in the bag and there is some easy breathing in the City of the Great Theodore. Despite the impressive record of nine wins out of ten games played, RHS has not had the easy road such a record might indicate. indi-cate. Uintah has been a threat throughout-the season, and Duchesne Du-chesne something more than a threat . it was just two weeks ago that the boys from down Highway- 40 had the Roosevelt fans scared still for a half a game at least. But the season is over and the Riders are packing their bags preparatory to making the jaunt to Zion for the state tournament. At Salt Lake Roosevelt will meet some stiff competition, stiffer than anything thus far offered, but the local cagers are good perhaps as good as anything that will be invading Salt Lake next week. Only next week will tell. y MEANWHILE the donation bag has been passed and Roosevelt Roose-velt businessmen, with their usual us-ual regularity, except in one case, have dished out the shillings shill-ings freely.
