Bette Gibbs We play Black Mountain Wed nesday week an.! its going to be tough. The two teams tied when they played here. I guess most of the people around here remem br when Black Mountain and Swan nanoa use to fight at every ball game. And for several years the two teams couldn’t play each other and most of the fights were strat ed by people who didn’t even come to school. So what I’m trying to say is that both schools would like the co-operation of all, because both teams, in my opi nion, are good sports and we would iike for both teams to meet in basketball.
