The scouts are beginning to re
port on the basketball situation,
which seems to be well in hund
and duo for' a banner campaign.
Among the teams that will be
beard from shortly in no uncertain
fashion is Montana State college,
tho champions of the Rocky Moim
tlnn conference, which came eust to
play Ilutler, Marquette, Purdue,
Pittsburgh, Penn State nnd Ne
braska. "Here is a team that needs nn
apologies for anything," writeB our
Denver observer. "It won 35 out
of 117 games last year, lost ono to
Utah Aggies nnd one to the Cook's
Painters of Kansas City (the na
tional A. A. U. champions) hut
M,ontana State won the serios from
each of these teams. They estab
lished an all-time scoring record of
223(1 points to which Ashworth
(Cot) Thompson. nll-Aniorica for
ward, contributed nlmost COO
points personally.
"Tho team hns lost Breeden, n

regulars of Inst season's quintet are
back. Resides Thompson they In
clude the famous Ward brothers,
Frank, center, nnd Orlnnd, forward,
in addition to Max Worthliigton,
guard.
"They will take on Purdue and
Stretch Murphy, Pittsburgh and
Charley Hyatt, and I'm telling you
In advance they will beat the

Montana State gume and that In
the middle west and eust is that

"Iir 37 games Inst season Mon

Baker High Reinstated
Consider Athletic Director
POIITI.AND, Ore., Dec. 28. (yP)
The status of "legal guardian
ship," raised when a LaGrande
high school protested the eligibil
ity of certain Maker high school
football players during the season
Just closed, appeared to have been
settled today as the Oregon High
School association prepared to
thresh out controversies that rear
ed their heads during the year.
- :At a preliminary hearing con
cluded late yesterday it was de
cided that hign school players may
move from one school to another
and that It Is possible to have
guardians appointed for them in
the city In which they attend
school, with no peril of their eli
gibility. "Baker high school was automati
cally reinstated by the board which
had banned the school until the an
nual meeting which cloBed today.
Appointment of a state director
of athletics was considered by the
association but no vote was taken
on it.
Discuss Big Game
Possibility of an annual state
championship football game was
seen In discussion yesterday, led
by Hoy C. Cannon, secretary of the
association. Cannon declared he
was in favor of such a champion
ship game. The salary of the pro
posed director would be paid from
receipts from this final football
game, as well as from the state
basketball championship games
held each year In Salem.
An amendment to association
rules was adopted providing that
no player shall be eligible to com
pete lti high Hchool sports after lie
has reached his 20th birthday. The
old ritlo placed the limit at 21
years.
Adopt Amendments
'Other amendments adopted in
cluded: '"Five weeks' attendance or par
ticipation In ono or more interscho
lastlc athletic contests will be con
sidered as n semester's attendance.
'"No school shall be n member of
the association If the athletic coach
Is not a full-time teacher. in the
school, nnd no part of tho coach's
salary Is to come from nny other
source than the school organization
employing him.
J"Any schools whoso students,
supporters, rooters or partisans
take part In riots, fights, pilfering,
painting or any unsportsmanlike
conduct ngnlnst nny other school
in the association shall forfeit all
games played and won nnd shall be
automatically suspended for an in
definite period.
"No member of a high school
shall he eligible to represent his
high school unless he has been in
attendance tho semester immedi
ately preceding."
Salem to Play
Sentiment expressed at tho pre
liminary meeting indicated the pos
sibility that Salem may be allowed
to participate In the annual state
high school basketball tournament
held in Salem each year, whether
or not Salem wins the division title
in Its district.
Tho rule providing Hint no school
