The program got under way at 2 o'clock in. the' Field House with W. Howard Yost, Lock Haven Teachers cage coach in charge. Carl Kngh, who has been basketball 'coach at West- High for the past 26 years, opened the program today with a demonstration of team elements of the man-to-inan defense.

For the sake of local Independent, basketball, we hope ths floor be made available. The league of last year operated successfully and the games on the regular schedule were completed without hitch. Then there were a half dozen or more playuff games and that wound up a great basketball year.

The grade school league also had the use of the floor on Saturday and eight teams got a chance to play. In addition, the American Legion and V. F. squads used the floor. will the Legion and Vets do this year? That question remains out on the limb.

They'll probably do everything lu their power to provide a basketteft floor. M.U.

HOOPLR Father of Deception Egad! Plaudits are rolling in from every ndok and cranny in the nation, commending my acumen in doping out the football results in advance. It's overwhelming. Characteristic of the tributes' being heaped like coals of fire upon my head is this excerpt from a letter sent in by an ardent supporter in Upper Frisbie, Montana: "Is he human?" The answer of course is yee, and really I must correct any impression my followers may have gained that there is somethln, supernatural about me. Indeed I am of the In today's forecast you will ob serve some rather close scores.

May I ask your indulgence if rwe and there you find the score a point or possibly two points off the result. This is only October, you know, and my system doesrj'i reach the cream of perfection until the first games of November. For instance, you'll note I pick Michigan to defeat Pittsburgh, 33 to 0. The score may well turn out to be 34 to 0. I carried out the result 10 places, got 33.4999999989 If this should go over the half way mark, a score of 34 would bfc indicated.
