Franklin High Prep Cagers Face Sparse Outlook
Franklin high school's basketball prospects look dim for the coming season with only two holdovers from last year and a new coach. Captain Johnny Cole will anchor the lineup at center as he enters his fourth prep season, supported by Horace Knowles as a quick but inexperienced substitute. The team loses five graduates, including Caccia Thorburn Elliott Segel and Wright, and Bert Maxwell is absent from school. Coach Dvorak plans to build around reserves and former midget players to field a faster squad.
