Semifinals in both divisions of the tourney are scheduled Friday night, while the finals come Saturday night. Selection of all-tournament teams and awarding of trophies will follow the final game.

For the next six nights the basketballs will bounce furiously as both boys and girls teams scrap toward the ultimate titles in the event. This tourney is the first one of the season for all clubs, and this will give an early-season line on what you can expect in the district race later on.

Henderson County placed four on the team, Bllnn placed two and Ranger three, there being a tie at one spot. Cisco didn't place one on the team, but for this corner's money the Wrangler's Jack Smith deserved a spot in the backfield. He showed up an one, of the best backs Nuvarro has met this season.
