Claims Victory Was
Of No Importance
SAYS THE ELKO TEAM ARE
STILL STATE CHAMPIONS
And that Under Far Conditions the
Elko Team Can Beat Winnemucca
with Ease

Editor Russell of the Elko Free
Press is of the undivided opinion that
the Elko Basket-bal team ere the
champions of the state Ior the bet
ter information of E.littr Russell on
what constitutes championship, AID
that no person may get a wrong idea
of the unsurpassed pfowess of the
Winnemucca girls when it comes ia
the game of basketball, we will again
point out that in the Winnerlucca
game with Elko the Elko young ladies
were outclassed in every point of the
game, and the victory was cl,an-cut
and decisive. The Press says:
The Elko High School Basket ball
girls returned on No. this afternoon.
They report having had most enjoy
able time. The game was played at
Reno without dispute, but he game
at Winnemucca was not as harmonious
or agreeable, many disputes having
arisen.
They regard the Reno team as
stronger than the Winnemucca team
and believe that under fair conditions
that they can beat the latter eas:l,
and are anxiaous for return game.
All the girls of the local team were
tired out when they met Winnemucca
and were in no condition to play.
They made mistake in attemuting
to play at all.
Notwithstanding the fact, however,
that Winnemucca beat the Elko team,
the latter is the champion His1 schorl
basketball team of Nevada In order
to take that honor from thel1 another
team must come here and beat them
on their own ground. Winnemucca
will be given that opportunity, in fact
they have already been invited and
all expenses of their trip have been
guaranteed.
"a reception will be given rhe Elko
team at the High school tonight. -
And Brother Booher s paper, tie
Daily Independent, has the following
"When last nights issue was about
half off the press, a dispatch was re
defeat of the Elko Basketball team
by score of II to 6. The Eko girls
must have been tired out or the score
would have told different story.
Doubtless each of the young ladies can
tell just how it happened, but we are
inclined to believe that their defeat by
the WiDnemucea team was due to too
much sightseeing and innoce;y dissi-
patton in Reno. The girls should lave
had good rest before they ;layed
