eighth annual national interscholas
tic basketball tournament to be held

Ihe tournament, according to the I
plans announced today, will bring
together the largest field of school
boy sectional champions ever assem
bled. Some of the teams will travel j
more than 1,000 miles to compete.
While the field this year is to be
limited to thirty-two teams, especial
efforts have been made to match
leaders of widely separated sections,
so that the finals will show the most
representative teams of schoolboys
in the country. Last year Lexing
ton, Ky., school carried off honors
in competition with twenty-six
squads, defeating Mt. Vernon, Ohio,
in the finals. Rockford, 111., and
Hume Fogg High of Nashville, Tenn.,
won third and fourth places.
One of the oustanding entries this
year is the Passaic, N. J., team |
which claims an unbroken string of i
105 victories. Aonthe r Eastern lead
er is Naugatuck, Conn., recent win
ner over Crosby High, of Water
bury, Conn., the runners-up in the
191 tournament. Lanier High, Ma
con, Ga., winners of, the 1922 South
ern title, and utidefeated this year,
are expected to represent that sec
tion of the South, while teams
from Texas will come from the
Southwest.
To enforce eligibility rules strict
ly, the University of Chicago has
acted through state associations of
the West, to insure that all entrants
are in good standing beford they
will be allowed to compete.
State organizations already have
raised funds to send the winners of
the Kansas and Tennessee tourna
ments. The visiting athletes will be
guests here of the university fra
ternities, with banqficts and auto
mobile trips on the entertainment ,
program.

Texas, to Porto Rico, arrived at Cur
tiss Flying Field, near here, yester- ;
day.
What has become of the sixth 1
plane, none of the arriving officers
were able to state. They expressed ;
the opinion that the plane had either
turned back after passng St. Augus
tine or had been compelled to make a
forced landng.
The five planes made a beautiful
landing, arriving in battle formation,
circling above the fie'ld and then ■
dropping prettily. A large crowd I
gathered to greet them. At noon th
officer.- and observers were luncheon
guests of James 11. Bright at the I
•Miami studios.
The arriving officers announced !
that they will not hop o.T for Havana I
until Friday, the original plan having
been to hop off today. The six planes j
left Pablo Pea h at 9:20 o’clock J
yesterday.
