Many schools have abolished basketball altogether and unless some meauses are used to arouse interest, it will soon die out as a collegiate or high school sport. The University annually stages a basketball tournament and it is the only time a state court game, Doctor Alen hopes that the baseball tournaments will in time be as eagerly looked forward to as those in basketball and that the high schools throughout the state will take an increased interest in the sport, he said.
"High schools should push back on the map and we feel that these tournaments will have the desired effect."
