The tournament will consist of 20 or more teams throughout Western North Carolina. Pairings have not yet been made. * The local high school must have had quite a few tough breaks Sat urday night when Cullowhee be'at them 21 points on the Cullowh*?6 court. We all know Sylva High has a much better team than the ''"iMwwgui.1" I Tumi... canes were a little over-confident. After 7 straight victories, the V.F.W. dropped a thriller Satur day night to the Robbinsville American Legion quint Robbinsville led the Sylva team 30-11 at the intermission but the inal score ended 44-39. There is never a basketball game played in or around Sylva that you can't hear our "drug store coaches," (people who know lit tle about the game and most likely didn't see it), downing the coaches or the players. If these people are really interested, why don't they get behind the teams and push in stead of holding them back and throwing a punch below the belt every chance they get. The Webster All-Stars will play Dayton Rubber Company Thurs day night on the Waynesville high school court. Sylva High took a good rebound from their upset by Cullowhefe by downing the Webster boys Tues day night. Anhwillv Mlombvrn Win From W .4 .T.1.

"Big" Jim Dowtin led the Bomber team with 25 points, while Barnhorst played a good floor game for W.C.T.CV In the preliminary it looked as though the Phillips brothers of the V.F.W. got most of the credit for their victory. The fast break which the Catamounts specialize in was completely stopped by Robert Phillips who kept the W.C.T.C. j forwards at a stand-still for 4 quarters. Bill Phillips did his usual work by hitting the hoop for la' ol his team's 32 points.

Moses, j has had a reply from Representa- I tive Dan Torrflpklfts iff ans\tf?F*ta" a request for information on how the State fund of $200,000 for school buildings in Jackson was arrived at. A paragraph in Mr, Tompkins* reply reads as follows: "The formula was worked out by a commission appointed by the Governor following the last ses sion of the General Assembly, and $200,000 would seem to be a fair apportionment to our county in view of the limited amount that we beheve we stand a chance ui getting the General Assembly to approve at this session." Mr. Tompkins stated further that if the general funds continue to grow during the next biennium 'Jackson county would receive i much more than $200,000. ) Mr. Tompkins is a co-sponsor of I the bilj setting up the funds for 'the various schools of the state. When the figures for Jackson county were released a few weeks ago many people considered the $200,000 far short of the actual needs for the county, and out of line witji proposed sums for other counties, thinking that the local school board had made the request for this amount. But this isn't the case, as stated by Mr. Tompkins. They were arrived at by the special state-wide commission. table, after which Professor Madi son was presented a large table of gifts from friends, faculty, and members of the family. An informal hour of greetings and conversation followed. HERALD WANT AD8 BRING GOOD RE8ULTS Sgt. Thad B. Deitz Goes To Germany Sgt. Thad B.
