MARTIN I OSAWATOMIE'S BASKET BALL COURT The Lane basket ball teams have" said quite a little about the basket ball court in the Osawatomie High school building. Nearly always these remarks are accompanied by lamentations because Lane has no place for such games. The court at Osawatomie is not elaborate by any means but it has- all the necessary conveniences that go to make up a good court.

It is electric lighted and steam heated. It is also equipped with showers and lockers in the boys' and girls' dressing rooms. The court is about 35 feet wide by 64 feet long, making it nice playing size. Neither too large nor too small. SCHOOL NOTES.
