Gordie Tibbitts was hitting, with deadly accuracy from the side, with Rudolph, Nichols and Brunswick controlling the boards.

The Csttts won, this tournament two years ago. A fourth entry will be the Hampshire Legion, who have lost only two games this season, both of these to the Zephyrs. Woodstock, Lake . Geneva, Waukega^ anci Antioch will be four teams that haven't been in the jamboree, but will be strong contenders for the title. Possners of Waukegan are leading their respective city league and have former college boys on their squad. Antioch is practically the same team that upset Elgin high school two years 'ago in the regional high school tourney at Crystal Lake. Maybe some of you fans have forgotten about some of these boys, bnt they are still around and playing lots of good basketball. Naming a couple of them, they are the Brdwnlee brothers, Ben Floyd, Palmer and Weber. Lake Geneva is one of the powers of * the Southern Lakes conference and promises to be one of the newcomers seeking the title. Woodstock will be in the tourney for the first time and there are reports that they will take the title away from Richmond. The Zephyr^, will be defending champs and to get through three games without a defeat in this classic will be a tough assignment. Annual Jamboree Feb. 17-18-19 The Richmond Zephyrs' annual basketball jamboree will be held Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 17, 18 and 19. The annual tournament has been such a favorite with the independent teams in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin that it has been necessary to increase the tourney teams to eight instead of four, so this year there will be eight sessions instead of the usual four on a Sunday. Among the teams that will be coming to Richmond for this big event will be the third place winner from last year, the Wheeling Blackhawks, who are stronger this season and already hold two wins over the Zephyrs. The Fort Sheridan Army team will be making their second visit to the jamboree. They were in the tourney the first year it was organized. This team is one of the strongest service teams in this section " of - th•> e is tate. v Another, strong entry will be Fremont Center, an all-colored NOTICE By order of the Village Board of Richmond, 111., car owners are hereby requested to remove parked vehicles from the street during the night so there will be no interference with the snow plow when snow removal is necessary.
