' A Last November, only one regular and two others who were lettermen returned to take up the purple and gold. During the season, we found several underclassmen achiev- ing recognition on the first team. On December fifth, Coach Glesne and his team went to Hayfield for the opening game of the season.The first half was made very exciting by the fact that the lead kept hands. By the end of the same, however, the 'Fieldersn had run up 36 points to AdamsY3O. December ninth, we witnessed the first home game a- gainst Lyle, only tc be defeated 28 to 40. The next game was played at LeRoy. Our boys got off to a good start,but were forced to give up the lead in the second quarter. The ending score was 19 to 58 in favor of the opponents. On December sixteenth, the Adams squad ventured to Rose Creek, to be overcome by a score of 56 to 15, after putting a stiff fight. On January ninth, after a three week's vacation, the team metered to Spring Valley. The Adams squad played a hard fought game,hold1ng the Valley team to 23 points, and scoring 19. January sixteenth found Elkton coming here, to be de- feated to the tune of 40-26. Our team took the offensive during the entire game. The Adams squad'y1e1tcd'Grand Meadow on Januaryytwenty- third. Grand Meadow found Adams a stiff opponent, but were able to defeat us 51 to 46. The next game on the 1ist,in my opinion, was the most exciting one of the season. It was a dark outlook, with three regularsn expelled, to be facing the strong Rose Creek squad. It was thrilling to find Adams holding the lead all the way,until the last quarter,when the opponents gained a one point lead, ending the game. The next game was played with Ellendale,there on Jan- uary thirtieth.

We hope there were no hard feelings between Coach G.Glesne of Ellendale and Coach M. Glesne of Adams. February sixth marks the date of Adams over-powering the Spring Valley team by the score of 28 to 21 in a hard fought game. The next game was played here with LeRoy on February tenth. After a hard close-played game, the Adams team was forced to yield to a score of 24 to 50. Grand Meadow vs. Adams, here, was the next game on schedule. This game was another thriller. It was an un- lucky Friday the thirteenth for our. team. At the end, we were on the short end of the score, 41-45. February seventeenth is the date Lyle was Adams' host. In a hard fought game Adams scored only 28 points to 58 for Lyle. On February twentieth, Elkton was again our guest. Adams rolled up 56 points, while Elkton picked up only 55 points. The Sub-district Tournament was held at LeRoy. The first night, Adams drew a bye. The second night of the tournament,Adams tangled with Spring Valley. Both teams were out to seek a trip to the District Tournament at Albert Lea. That being an Hoff nightu for Adams, Spring Valley emerged with a three point margin, 27-50. The third night Adams played with LeRoy for Consola- tion honors. Our squad, however, was unable to outplay the LeRoy squad and were defeated 26-56. Grand Meadow took the Sub-district title. This year our team was unfortunate in winning only a few games, but when the game was over the opponents always knew that they had been in a basketball game.
