ASHLAND TEAM SHOW Up
AS POOR SPOpTSMEN
Resort to Unfair Means to
Win Basket Ball
Game

The Washburn High School
basket ball team went over TO
Ashland last Friday evening
where they played the Ashland
High School team and 1the deal
that the local boys were given
over there was disgrace to the
Ashland people and the Ashland
High School.
The Ashland team had the i'm.
preston that they would h ave
very little difficulty in wi ming
the game but after the play had
started came to the conclusion
that they had tackled a harder
proposition than they had figur-
ed on and when the first kalf
was ended the score was Is to
Is in favor of the Washburn
team.
Now the trouble with the Ash.
land team, whether it be base
ball. foot ball or any other game,
is that they cannot take defeat
and take it fairly and squarely,
but in almost every instance will
resort to rough. tactics in order
to win and this is just what
happened last Friday evening.
When the Ashland boys came
unto the floor at the beginning
of the second half they began
roughing it with the result that
one Washburn player, Harold
Hovde, was laid out after a few
minutes of play. Another Wash
burn player was bumped con-
siderable and the attention of
Referee Hyper was called to this
and he began calling fouls, and
one or two of the Ashland play
ers ceased their dirty work. but
others continued to use rough
plays during the game. The
crowd was even worse than the
players and began Kissing
Referee Hyper for any decision
which he made against the Ash
land team. At one time, when
one of the signals made in favor
of the Ashland team was mis-
understood, the Ashland coach
Mr.. Chase, followed by the Ash
land fans, surged down unto the
floor and Referee Hyper, was hit
in the face. No attempt what
ever was made by the school
authorities of Ashland to hold
back the crowd or protect the
visiting players.
Mr.. Hyper and his team
should have forfeited the game
right here and left the hall. but
they are too clean sportsmen for
this and the game was played
out, Ashland winning.
1t was necessary for the Ash
land team to win this game in
order to get into the state meet
to be held at Appleton. and they
were determined to win in any
manner they might be able. The
winning of the game was no
credit to them.
It is on account of the decid-
eddy unfair means used in WIN
ming games that the Ashland
team always has difficulty in
getting games with outside
schools, and hereafter the Wash
burn school will not play against
that team.
A protest in the form of an
affidavit signed by four parties
from this city who witnessed the
Friday night contest has been
sent to the President of the In
terscholastic Association to have
the Ashland school barred from
participating in any more con.
tests played with teams in this
section. A copy of the affidavit
has been forwarded to the prin-

necks will make somewhat impor-

Some of the sleeves are quite close

have been occupying the European

blouse is a genuine one drawn in al

often the effect is obtained by the
use OF deep peplum or short tunic
and, in these latter, are found many
possibilities for the use of bordered
materials. Pronounced borders, those
that give wide striped effect or any
