Show Sports Roundup By Bill Nelson One or two practice games are scheduled and the high school and Basin leagues officially start hoop play next month. Last week record, or near record rec-ord scores were produced in two local contests. On December 18, North Emery High swamped the Rough Riders 70 to -19. The .'ocal lads were ragged in their play, showing little good defensive stuff, and their ball handling, once they got hold of the ball, was anytning but encouraging. On December 20, the Ameri-ican Ameri-ican Legion lost a close decision to the Veterans of Foreign Wars from Price. The score, believe I it or not, being 95 to 90. Certainly Certain-ly 185 points in 40 minutes of play must be some sort of a record. That represents, a lot of basket shooting. The Legion team showed considerable con-siderable improvement over their last game, exhibiting the brjnd of ball which they are capable of playing. Seven teams have officially entered the Basin league and one more is expected to sign up soon. Roosevelt High plays Craig, Colorado here on December 30. and on January 5 the famed Negro Ghosts will display their I fancy ball playing when they 1 meet Roosevelt High at the Elementary El-ementary school gym. Play in the high school league will officially open January 2, when the Rough Riders meet A I terra.
