Basketball or a reasonable facsimife thereof will be played one night a week strictly for the heck of it. This is a league designed for all the fair, fat and forty types and it is not anti- cipated that the speed of play will prove to be daz- zling. The sole idea is a bit of healthy exercise and a lot of good clean fun; â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" A group of scientific types calculated a long time ago that the speed of light is one hundred and eighty- six thousand miles per second. It’s quite possible that they are exactly right - it’s kind of hard to check on our handy home abacus. And that makes the speed of light almost equivalent to the speed with which a dollar bill can vanish in this frenzied world} It is very gratifying to be able to report that a swimming pool for Richmond Hill became more than just a vague hope on Tuesday of last week. Members of the tpwn planning board, the industrial commission and the parks board met with members of the swim- ming pool committee and all bodies gave their endor- sation to the absolute necessity of a pool. In addition to recognizing the need for a swim- ming pool in this area, the matter was taken one very important step farther along the way. All parties at the meeting agreed unreservedly on a site for the pool and the property is now available. The biggest and on] ' remaining fly in the ointment is the problem of final *ing. This problem seems to raise its nasty head tine and again, but we’re confident that a solu- tion will be found very soon. We could be using the new pool by next summer if all gees well. And after going this far this is every reason expect that the project will be carried to an emi ‘37 successful conclusion. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"â€" H0' ' long since y ‘1 ‘ ' slm‘ball? For most of us it has been a fairly long time but we still re- membei it as one of the best games that a body ever played. If you’re at all interested - call Dave Barber at TU. 4-4779 and let him know that you’re with him. Anybody remember just exactly how to lay up a. hook shot?
