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.

The Edlow-Spring is the firsr
