RHS Quint Ends
Season Tonight
Grants Pass Foe
By MICKEY CAMPBELL ...
The .Roseburg high Indians
complete their 1941-42 basketball
season in a game to be played at
the local gym tonight at 7:30
o'clock with the cellar-dwelling
Grants Pass Cavemen. The In
dians originally had a game
scheduled with Springfield next
Saturday but, due to tire short
age, the game has been cancelled.
This leaves tonight's game cs the
finale ot the season.
The Indians looked very Im
pressive in workout last night
and Coach Jim Davis appeared
quite well . pleased with the
squad's performance in prepara
tion for their last game. If the
Indians win this game they will
be certain of staying out of the
league basement but a loss might
drop them there. The Cavemen
hold two victories over Roseburg
to date, the first by a score of
41-29 and the second 31-21, while
the Indians have a 24-20 victory
to their credit.

two years and this year's team
has centered to a great extent
around him since he was the lone
returning letterman. John .Ness,
who has been outstanding this
year as a guard, has , played In
every game although a reserve
last year. Both of these players
will be missed and in all fairness
to them, local fans should turn
out to see them play their last
game. , ,
The game will start at 7:30,
with no preliminary. The local
aquaa will be at lull strengtn
with a few minor exceptions.
Roseburg won at home last time
against Grants Pass and plans tp
do It again tonight but, the Cave
men would also like to climb out
of the cellar and so will be no
easy target for the Indians.
