The Cape May High School basket- i ball team is having a most successful ' season. Although somewhat handicapped by not having a permanent I tall yet. | / the team has made wonderful strides , j since the beginning of the season. The i ( schedule arranged is a difficult one and \po far only one game has been lost, j that to Millville High School five. , Hfjpett are entertained for a clean run i of victories in the remaining contests. The team is captained by Floyd Hughes, a man who has the confidence j of the whole student body. Hughes is a 1 bard, conacientioua worker, and has few ' equals in scholastic ranks in his favorite position of guard. He is lightning fast on the floor, and has the ability to make remarkable shots from the mid- ' die of the floor. On the defensive he J follows the ball closely, and does his - work with very few fouls being called f against him. ' At centre Baker has shown himself to be able to bold his own. His ability to outjump men much taller than himself makes his presence very valu- 1 able. He is a lightning passer and has • good eye. jj Arnold and Lemmon at forward form y a scoring combination that will keep > . any guards busy. Both have good eyes for the basket and work together well. . Lemmon is also the foul thrower for s the team. Arnold is an exceptionally l hard man to play because of his di- ^ minutive stature and his quickness. '' Allan Pbinsett, the other guard, is a careful but strong player. He attends strictly to his business and plays the game. His ability to dribble well makes ' him a fine running mate for Captain v Hughes. S Ben Poinsett is a very capable substi- I _tnte. Although the team still has plenty to learn, nevertheless the improve-

ment in its playing is very noticeable. Practice is held two or three times a week and the fine points of the game. ] are being learrted. There are still a few •pen dates on the schedule. Any high | : school wanting games may get in touch j with R. Baker, manager. Cape May City, -V. J. Mother Gray's Sweet Powder* for I ■ Children relieve Feverlshness. Head- , ache. Bad Stomach.
