Indoor Basketball is becoming very popular with the public, and a large crowd is expected to witness the games again this week. In the ladies’ A grade Hugo and Shearers and Woolworths should be an outstanding game. These teams played a drawn game in the first round and are keen to meet again. Stock and Station, the only undefeated team, are to meet the Hospital. The nurses arc improving fast and should extend their opponents. The ladies’ B grade is a very interesting competition and some more surprises may be expected this week. The leading teams, Hosiery and McKenzies should provide an exciting game. In the men’s section the outstanding game should be between Reliance B and Bouzaids. Both these teams played excellent basketball last week ana if this standard is maintained a great game should result.
