The draw, done by sheer chance by the four coaches Thursday night at Omaha Uni versity where the meet opens Thursday night, couldn't have been better. J Plattsmouth drew Westside j f 1-15 for the season) and the other match pairs Omaha South 1 11-5) aeainst Creighton Prep (6-10). Game times are: Thursday, 7:15 p.m., Platts mouth vs. Westside; 9 p.m. Om aha South vs. Creighton Prep. The final will be Saturday at 9 with the final of a district in volving Bellevue vs. Omaha Tech and Omaha Cathedral vs. Omaha North scheduled as the first game. For Plattsmouth, even though Westside has a similar record, it appears to be a tough row to hoe. But, Adkins is conceding nothing. Anything can happen in a tournament where past re cords mean nothing and only 32 minutes are important. Tickets for the tournament are available here at High School Principal Wayne Rode horst's office. The word he has from tourney managers is that parking is scarce at Omaha Un iversity and Tourney-goers would be wise to pick up tickets in advance. Admission is $1 for adults, 50 cents for identified students. The home team's advantages in those periods were 19-2 and 20-5. Otherwise, it was an even game. For Plattsmouth, John Chudy and Marv Lancaster scored nine points each. Bellevue had four players with 10 to 14 points.
