HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL
TEAM DEFEATS MINES

The White Pine high school bas-
ketball team decisivaly defeated the
mines quintette from Ruth on Thurs
day evening in the high school GYM
nasium by a score of 81 to II.
The game was a nip and tuck bat
tile all the way. Outweighed by many
pounds and appearing like pygmies
beside their opponents, the high
school lads dashed in and out and
all around the miners. They depend
Ell on their speed and endurance to
win, and came through in fine shape.
But the students missed many good
shots and should have had a much
larger score. On the other hand the
team work of the Ruth boys was
somewhat ragged and they plainly
showed lack of practice. But as they
have not played together before,
their showing was very good.
The struggle surprised the gallery,
who thought that the mine hoopers
would have an easy time Decanse OF
their size; but the high school bas-
keteers handed the grandstand a
nice little surprise and came out with
the blue and white flying. Another
game has been arranged between the
two teams The date will be Tues
day, March 2S. A game between the
girls of the high school will also be
staged.
The lineup for the game was as
follows:

HIGH SCHOOL T

During the past two weeks the
high school body has been actively
engaged in many matters of import
ance. Last week a Student Body
Association a formed and the fol-
lowing officers were elected:
President-Cleora Murdoch.
Observation-Disclosures Stokes.
Treasurer-Warren Larsen.
Seeretary-Glen Taylor.
The purpose OF the organization
is that the student body themselves
shall handle all matters pertaining
to student body activities, but not
To class affairs.
This week. being examination
week. the students and faculty have
been very busy. but nevertheless
some important events have taken
place.
On Wednesday of this week Mr..
Lockhart delivered an address to
the high school body. He spoke
mainly OF the n1sD ScnOOl laws II
explained them fully to the students.
At the conclusion of his address he
urged the need and Importance of a
high school cadet organization, and
expressed his desire and hope that
something be done along this line
at nee. The students gave him a
rising vote of thanks as an expression
of their appreciation of his address
The school month closed on Fri
day night with the students ana
faculty both blessed with the relief
of a strenuous month of school work
finished. There being only three
more months of school work, the
students feel the responsibility or
getting in and accomplishing some
thing that will make White Pine
County High School rank as the best
school in the state of Nevada. The
senior class of this veal will show
to the public that they are doing
something and that they will con-
time to do so in the future.

ton, but that such cards shall not be
given preference over the Lincoln
Highway directions.
Further. AS evidence of good
faith, parties of the first part agree
that the regular Salt Lake bureau
established for the distribution of
such information, OF other places
where information is to be had, shall
not distribute direction cards, direct
ing such travellers to- diverge from
the Salt INSTRUMENTATION road
before they shall have reached the
town of Ibipah, Utah.
In consideration of the foregoing
pledges, and for the furthering of
the mutual interests herein noted,
the parties of the second part agree,
that they win withdraw all opposi-
ton to the construction of the Wend-
oyer-1bipah route, and will not, in
any way, discriminate against such
route , but will, at all times, give
impartial information to travellers
from Ely toward Salt Lake City.
Further: Parties of the second
part agree not to inaugurate. pro-
mote OF in any other way. Encourage
any other route out OF Ely, leading
to the east or northeast. which might
be inimical to the interests of Salt
Lake City, but will use their best Of
fees to encourage all travellers head
ed east or northeast to follow either
the Lincoln Highway or the Wend-
over-Ibipah route between Ely and
Salt Lake City.
Further: Parties of the second
part agree to use their best endeavor
to suppress and terminate any BUSH

PROSPECTS GOOD FOR
LONG DISTANCE LINE

According to information which is
now in the possession of General
Manager James s. Bennett, of the
White Pine Telephone company. 1t
now seems reasonably certain that
the line which Mr.. Bennett proposed
to officials high in telephone service
on the occasion of the convention
held by the Telephone Pioneers of
America at the hotel st. Francis in
San Francisco, last September, and
az told in detail in the News follow
ing Mr.. Benefits return, will be
built.
i 1t is now proposed to construct
this line along the Lincoln Highway
and il Is said that telephone officials
have taken kindly to the suggestion
made by those in charge of the con-
struction of the great national mill
tary highway to erect the telephone
line as the telephone eompany's part
of the great enterprise. II this line
Is constructed it will be so arranged
that a traveller can cut in on the line
at stations which will be arranged
just a mile apart. In that case no
traveller would W have a greater
distance than one-half mile between
him and a telephone station from
which he might call for help no mat
ter where he might get stranded on
the desert.
Then this district may talk
to friends and relatives in New
York, Boston, Chicago, and San
Francisco as freely as from house to
house in this community.
The construction of this line would
be of everlasting benefit to this tom-
munity. and much credit is due to
General Manager Bennett for his
energy in the matter as well as his
standing in the telephone world
which enabled him to bring the mat
ter personally to the attention OF
men who have been his friends for
years and who are today right at the
very head of the great enterprise.
