West High Loses Star duo to Board of Control ruling
Royce and Nauman of West High are barred from athletics by the Town High School Board of Control until they complete a semester in school. The decision follows rules requiring one semester of enrollment for eligibility, reflecting wartime guard mobilizations that have already affected West High’s football lineup.
