Plainview, Bassett First Round Winners _ Burwell, Neligh Lose Tuesday Night The annual district class B | tournament got underway Tues day evening on the O’Neill pub lic school court with Plainview i and Bassett rolling past Burwell and Neligh, respectively. First round play was to be I completed Wednesday evening | as Gordon faced Ainsworth at 7 j p m., and the O’Neill Eagles, go- j mg into the tourney with a rec ord of 17 wins and three losses, risked their tourney hopes against Valentine at 8:3'0. Don Kokrda, bulky Plainview hotshot, established a formidable individual scoring mark in the opening game by firing 33 points. The entire Plainview machine revolves around this fellow. Plainview built a 13-8 first quar ter lead, went ahead 30-13 at the half in an easy 62-34 win. Lythe with 11 and Conard with 10 were best for the losers. Plainview was miserable at the freethrow lane with seven con versions in 29 tries. Bassett handily disposed of the Neligh Warriors, traditionally a strong tourney team, by a 59-40 cottnt. Gordon's 12 and Morton’s ll were best for the losers; Peter son tallied 11 for Neligh. The sonre was knotted 12-all at the end of the first period. Bassett went ahead 27-22 at intermission and 41-27 at the end of the third. Stmoemen Return io Their Stations— PAGE — Cpl^strnesi 1®* , Graves, son of fit. and Ur £[L? • KangjOyavea.

McCarville, Staff Photographer, The Frontier, O’Neill, Nebr. Dear Mr. McCarville: We were interested in your pictures and caption material on the most recent O’Neill blizzard, but unfortunately they came at a bad time. If we had been able to get them here last Saturday, they would have had a good chance but we have already scheduled a five-page essay on snow on Mt. Washington for this week and don’t think our readers could take much more snow. We are always interested in good storm pictures, however, and if the “winter sports capital” lives up to its reputation, we might be able to use something the next time around. Thank you for letting us see the pictures, and we hope we will hear from you again. ’ c Sincerely, IRENE SAINT Chief, LIFE News Bureau One-Act Play Contest Starts STUART— The one-act play contest of Stuart high school will be held tonight (Thursday) and Friday night, beginning at 7:30 o’clock each evening.
