The school basketball teams have started practice with a large number of veterans. The teams are showing up well and will give you some real games this winter. They will meet the following teams: Nevada, State Center, Slater, Gilbert, Colo, Colfax, and if schedule can be arranged will play Ames. Let’s get out and back the coaches and their teams.
The dramatic work is also under way with a large number out for practice. The expectations are that they will take away their share of honors this year. Watch for the dates of the Home Concert and give them your support.
November 26, 1925 Colo Beats State Center – The football game between Colo and State Center at the former place last Friday was a victory for Colo by a score of 12 to 0.

After the game the Collins band went to State center where they played several selections in the different stores that were open and were invited into one place where the ladies were serving doughnuts and coffee.
