Basketball The Lockridge High School, although the smallest school in the Little Five, is not the least, especially in basketball. Three years they Won the Little Five championship, last year tied for second place, and this year won third place. 'Coach Scott began the season with six letter men, and quite a number of new men to choose from. Practice began the first of December, and on De- cember 3rd, with only three practices, Lockriidge was defeated by -Packwood. liack of practice showed plainly, for the Lockridge boys were unable to hit the basket.

One of the best games of the season was with Pleas- ant Plain on our own floor. The teams were evenly matched and each' put up a strong defense, but Lockridge
