Almost a week has passed since these teams have been in action against any opponent. They have had ample time to smooth out any weaknesses and tonight's game should be an exhibition of stellar basketball.
Probable starters for Clark will be Bennie Lowe and Avery Burress at forward, Roman Turmon at center, Robert Phillips and James Trice at guard. Lowe and Turmon have furnished Clark's main scoring punch so far this season. Phillips and Trice are mainstays in the Panther defense. Alfred Ellis and Leon Carlton will undoubtedly play major roles. Coach "Sonny" Epps hopes to use his entire squad in this game, including William Powell, Blaine Waynes, Willie Scoggins, Freddie Jackson, Forrest Patterson Robert Barham William Rolle and Offie Clark.
The possible starting line-up for Coach Frank L. Forbes' Maroon Tigers includes: Wiley Jackson and Bruce Phillips at forward. Clifford Jackson at center. Bertram Sears and George Ross at the guards.
Wiley Jackson has been his team's biggest scoring weapon in the absence of Bruce Phillips, who is expected to return at top form tonight. Clifford Jackson at the center spot is the hope of the Tigers in backboard tussles. Sears and Ross will be obstacles in the path of all Clark scorers. Other members of the Tiger squad who will probably see action tonight are: Thomas "Rip" Collier, Elliott Jones Schelley Lipscomb, B. J. Johnson Bobby Jones Cornelius Davis and William Leggett.
Tonight's game is the last meeting of the season between these neighborhood rivals.
