Taylor, leading the pack in the

which the Beavers are a member, will
bring a fancy outfit here.
Hailing from Upland, Ind., the
Taylor outfit is composed of former
high school stars from that state, and
plays the universally recognized In
diana style of basketball.
Against St. Marys at that place
Friday, the local high school squad
will be seeking its third straight
Western Buckeye league contest.
So far, the Pirates are undefeated

the locals were undefeated. To date,
the Cotterman coached outfit has
victories over Celina and Kenton.
Other teams to be met in the league
schedule include Bellefontaine, Van
Wert, and Wapakoneta. Only the
Cougars will be played away from

for the leadership of the first round
of league play as a result of their

with 15 and 10 points while Tudor
continued his excellent scoring rec
ord with 17.
In the third game the league lead
ing Pandora Millers defeated their
home town rivals, 49-28.
Paced by their versatile forward,
Etter, who poured in 27 points dur
ing the game, the Millers had little
trouble hanging up their fifth win
against one loss
Rich Baumgartner was high for
the Pandora city team with seven.
Tonight’s games wind up the first
round with the spotlight on the Mt.
Cory-Pandora game.
Mt. Cory can tie for the league
