We suy that's good. W need some better movie stars. (y Kcnnp) It's nil over but the shouting and Wallowa undoubtedly Is do ing Its shure of that as residents of tliut city have the rlisht to do. as fur as this district is concerned. Hut ihe him-niuble fact remains thai the strongest basketball team, which happens to ho that one coached by Campbell, tip at Joseph, is siuylug ait home while u team, I hat Is nut us strong Is represent ing Ibis district at the slate lias- kelball tournament. This Is not written with malice nor In the form or nil exensi merely a plain statement ot rail as Ihe writer sees II. Hecause. in . the llnal analysis, Joseph high school's iiaKltetb.-ill team was TIIK strongest team in the district. Trouble lies In the fact thai the district tournament at I'nlon was actually, as far as designating the real champion is concerned, a flop. That's a fact. The tournament permitted hun dreds of fans to see some A No. 1 games-but it did not select the best team for thn district Jionors. The board of control was not at faull the members didn't fore, see what happened. Nellher did the greater shure of the fans. nut the fact remains that it "lid happen. . The double elimination system as It wns handled this year, was the cause of the mlx-np. Of course, it was an experience that carried n lesson with It that will he remem bered very well next spring when tournament time comes again, and will be taken advantage of. In fairness to all, Ihe wrller Imp pens to know that everything thai was done was in good failh nnd the way It finally turned out wns j in '.he fnet that It WU un ex- pertinent, which sent Wullown. j beaten ones, to naiem. uiei Joseph, also beaten but once, at home. Wallowa hns a good team not flashy or really brilliant, hut worthy of consideration. It will carry Ihe good wishes or un io Salem and the results of the slate tourney will be eagerly looked for ward lo. Hut the way It looks now. Medford stands u good chance lo repent lis feut last year In win ning tho stale championship. Track work starts this week In lai Orande nnd MocTnvlsh Is hope ful of putting forth a winning team. The material at hand is not as good as last yean, tint some of the prospects seem to be worthy of real consideration.
