T MORAL BASKETBALL The new Moral High, being just completed, put a new basketball team in the field for the state title, this team being made up of players who had played on other teams from various schools. The team has made a good record for this first year's playing. They have played fourteen games, winning eight of these. They have taken part in two tourneys, Moral and VValdron, but failed to win either. They reached the finals in the Moral tourney and lost the first game at XYaldron. Even at that we are proud of our Moral team. Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah-NVhol Team-XVho-Team, Team, Team!

. MORAL NEWSPAPER COMMENTS Moral also came through with the only girl female cheer leader of the tournament. She knew her stuff and led the rooters with all of the gestures and pep that any boy might have. Moral township scored its second one-point victory of the tournament in the 11 0'clock clash with NVestport this morning. Moral came through a win- ner, 14-13, in a game which provided the thrills for the large crowd which had gathered for the morning session. The teams battled desperately from the start and at half-time were on even terms, 10-10. In the last period, Moral forged ahead and with only a few minutes to go was out in front, with a three-point lead. Moir's long field goal put 1Yestport back in the running, but some clever stalling by the Shelby county tossers sent the Vifestport lads to the showers, defeated by one point.

Sleeth, of Moral Township. and Marshall, of XYaldron, were two nifty players who took part in the sectional tourney last week. llouse, Moral Township center, was also of more than ordinary ability. He is fast on his feet and handles the ball well, and gets down the floor fast on his dribbles. Moral Wins Long One The Moral Township quintet was forced to battle hard for a one-point decision, 11-10, in the first overtime game of the tourney, which was staged at 7:30 o'clock Friday evening. Boggstown, Moral's opponent in the ex- tended contest, was leading at the half, 4-1, but in the last period, Moral evened things up and at the end of the regular playing session, the score was 9 all. Moral scored a field goal and Boggstown counted from the foul line in the overtime. The teams both played defensive games and the first ten minutes went scoreless.
