Reeves, principal of the Mary hill. Wash., schools and secretary treasurer of the Klickitat County Inter scholastic Athletic association, in com menting on athletics in the Mid-Columbia league, comprised of the towns of Gold- endale. White Salmon. Stevenson. Hood River. The Dalles and Dufur. eays that a bitter partisan feeling exhibited byt supporters of the football and basketball teams In the different towns that has been apparent for years Is increasing causing bad feeling between the players wnich leads to unfair and rough playing, the permitting of players to participate who are not eligible under interscholaa- tlc rules, attempted Intimidation of referees, all of which is detracting from the purposes of lnterscholastlc athletics. Professor Reeves attributes the trou ble to an overzealou8 Interest exhibited by partisan supporters of teams -who are not directly interested in lnterscho lastlc sports and the principles that are expected to be brought out and main tained for the furtherance of athletics n connection with school work. As a remedy, he offers two sugges tions. One would be for the Washington teams in the league to withdraw from the Mid-Columbia league schedule of football and basketball games and the scheduling of independent games until such time as a better feeling can be established between the towns and schools In the present league. The other would be for the league officials to secure and pay for the services of neutral referees from towns outside the league to officiate in all games played. ZTBNZKQ TO DEFEND TITLE I Panver.
