J oice Craft SECOND TEAM HE MORTON Kits had a fine season as compared to the last few seasons, winning 8 and losing 10. They too lacked in height in some departments but made up for it in their teamwork and fine play which rapidly devel- oped throughout the season.

SECTIONAI, TOURNAMENT HE MORTON Tigers drew New Salem in the first game of the Sectional Tourney. The Tigers entered the tourney with a record of 8 wins against ll defeats.
