Kentucky's
Wildcats with four
ambitious holiday net calls as their
gift from St. Nick will receive their
season's first test by fire tomorrow
right in Alumni gym at 8 p. m.
against the University of Cincinnati
Bearcats.
In a preliminary appetizer to the
e
varsity battle, the Kentucky Kittens will make their first
start of the year with Maysville
hish school as opposition. The Cats
will conclude their
campaigning next Wednesday night
when the powerful Washington and
Lee Generals invade the Alumni
band-boThe Nef Year's first assignment will send the Cats East
for tussels with Long Island University. January 4, and St. Joseph's
College of Philadelphia, January 6.
This season Cincinnati is reported to sport their strongest team in
recent years. In Capelle, 6 feet, 4
inch center, the Bearcats boast of
the best pivotman to decorate
baskets since Kentucky's
LeRoy Edwards in
1935.
So far Cincinnati's veteran
team has eased to wins in their
only two starts and the game, as
for Kentucky, will mark the Bearcats' third test of the current campaign.
