The average ta x rate had jum ped

to form a basket ball team. The
college alum ni were, as usual,
equal to the emergency, and
quickly gathered a team to meet
the ‘V arsity .’
Although they
showed flashes o f brilliant team
w o rk and did some spectacular

were unable to keep the pace set
by the younger generation. The
