Basketball practice has started.
Borth senior and junior teams have
many players trying out. The big
questionnow is, "Am T able to get
50 percent?" Before a player can
play he has to get 50 or more per-
cent on his examinations. We
hope to have good teams and close
games in the HSSA schedule.
Alt the students wish you a
"Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year."
