The swan song of the Tri-County Semi-Pro Basketball League sounded last week when only two Interested teams showed up for a reorganisation meeting at the YMCA. The- area 1s minus many of the crack Dlayers' oUast season they're either in college or holding down timjdmanding -jobs and it just couldn't support as many clubs as were in the loop last year. i Less Ball but Better Ball From this corner, it looks as though fans in Glens Falls, Hudson Falls, and Whitehall may not have-quite as much basketball to watch during the next couple of months, but they'll be seeing a better caliber of bell. The SAMAS, Glens Falls Legion, and the 'Y' Men's Club in Whitehall plan to tackle crack road teams, some of national reputation, and that's the style of play that will bring out the supporters.

Undefeated, untied and with a fine defensive record, the Green Wave was blessed with outstanding players who placed teamwork above individual glory.

Their performances have-been rewarded.
