i i 1 MDELl'll'lE-EIL X 1 t ii i Extra practice for tournament, March 7 T THE close of the foothall season, followers of Delal ware High School athletics turned their attention to hasltetlwall, that lively game which heads the winter sport program, As had heen the case in foothali. Delawaies cagers were faced with a new schedule that of the Central Buckeye League, Though many traditional foes were listed, the schedule also carried several teams of unknown metal. Delaware was iorlu:.ate. therefore, in having Hein' lin, Sell, and Briglit, three experienced plaiyers, returning from last year's squad. Mmmre than sixty boys answered the call for the two vacant positions a degree of enthusif asm seldom attained. Despite the short period remaining for practice, Coach Carlisle was ahle to put a quintet of sufficient strength to heat Bellefoutaine on the floor hefore Christmas. The vacation seemed to have disastrous effects on the hoys, for following their initial l6flZ victory hefore the holidays, they dropped four straight games. The first defeat was at Grandview, when the Columhus cagers sank a hasket in the last few seconds of the game, putting themselves on the hetter end of a 260.5 score, In a return game at Delaware, later in the season, Grandview was easily beaten.
