We started the season with somewhat of a question mark, but after our loss to Avilla in early season, we got down to business and played in the next few games, what could be called, our best showing of the season. In midseason we were off and on, but seemed to win. We came out of our slump in time to show everybody we were as good as the No. 5 rating in the area pinned on us by winning the county tourney in a sensa- tional final game over Albion. We are only hoping that we can keep up the good work “or the remainder of the season. WOLCOTTVILLE GRAIN CO.
