A TRIP TO ELKO AS TOLD BY
ONE OF THE TEAM MEMBERS

ne mcLiuciS Vi tue 1HlS DdShet-
ball team of the White Pine County
High School. who recently returned
from a trip to Elko and other towns
where they contested for champion
ship honors with teams from various
other places, have been asked to give
the people of this district an account
of their journey, and Miss Murdoch,
captain of the local team, has
written the following description OF
their trip:
Most all of you helped to make
the trip OF the White Pine High
School girls baske ball team posi-
BILE and we want you to know what
that trip meant to us. 1t was won
derful in so many ways and to tell
you of 1t is the only way we have
of showing you our appreciation.
We left Ely February twenty-third,
n very enthusiastic bunch Of girls;
but we returned five days later with
more enthusiasm than We had dream
ed we possessed. Coming in contact
with other schools and other stu
dents, and the inspiration of meeting
such people as Miss Sammeth of the
University of Nevada and Mrs. Brown
of the Normal School, have awaken
ed us to many things. For example,
two of us who r seniors, feel for
the first time that nothing shall keep
us from going on to a university and
two other members r equally re-
solved to attend the Normal School
when we are graduated.
We lost that game at Elko nine
teen to forty-three. All who were
in a position to judge say We played
a creditable game. We recognized
the quick team work of Elko and the
excellent work of their star forward
Geraldine Helfrick and tried to
match 1t with our own We fought
hard the first half but eve harder
the second half. running the score
up twelve points. We congratulate
the Elko team. They played a beau
tiful game and when we gave them
three times three at the close of the
second half II came straight from
our hearts. This is the first time
we have played a high school team
and we feel that we gained more by
that game than by months of prac-
tice alone.
Elko treated us royalty. The first
day we spent In visiting classes at the

Miss Annie Isabel Park of East
Ely and George Barnett Thomas OF
Ruth, were united in marriage by
Justice Edwards Thursday evening
at the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. George Park. The
couple begin married life with the
best wishes Of many friends and were
the recipients of numerous handsome
and useful remembrance. The
groom's gift to the bride was a dia-
mond brooch. while the bride pre-
sented the groom with a diamond
pin. The gift of the parents to the
newly-weds included diamond and
sapphire rings. Other presents In

that we learned more in those five
days than could be learned in months
at home. At McGill we were well
coined by a group of White Pine stu
dents who did all they could to show
us they we're glad We had returned.
Monday morning everyone on the
team was on deck for regular roll
call. After that the period devoted to
opening exercises was handed over to
us and we showed spirit by sing
ing all our songs for them and CIV
ing White Pine all u yells. The
glorious trip was ended.
We have recently heard that in the
Elko-Reno game Elko lost to Reno
fifteen to twelve. Reno is now the
champion of the northern part of the
state. They will soon meet Tono-
pah, the champions of the southern
part of the State, and then the state
championship will be decided. 1t is
the opinion of many that Tonopah
will be champions of Nevada. Aft
er Tonopah plays Reno they are COM
ing here to play us. We are going
to fight hard for the two games we
are to play with them. Come and
help us win the games by roofing for
the home team.

In our game with Star we certain
ly had a fine chance to put into prac-
tice all we had learned in the Elko
game. But we must pause in our
writing at this point for another
good laugh at our experiences. That
trip was certainly n grand lark.
We were met at Deeth by several
covered buggies and were driven
through the snow to the farm houses
where we were to stay. The drivers
tried to jolly us by telling us the size
of their team. We did not believe
them until We saw the team but then
It was only too evident that they had
told the truth. They were surely
some size. We found this out when
we bucked up against them on the
floor. But we had learned q great

ing that Ashby's connection with Ho-

he knew nothing Of the doings of In

afternoon mail there arrived, much
delayed. a letter which Bob had scrib-
bled on the train and mailed in Ohio
the morning after he left. 1t told her
nothing of where he was to 60. He
did not mention ever If he had re-
ceived more definite orders. 1t told
her only of his thought and his love
for her. She clasped it close and
wrote to him at once again. She had
written twice already, addressing him
in are of the navy yard, Norfolk.
That night-although publication of
the movements of American ships had
been sternly forbidden-it was known
that the scattered Amegican squadrons
had succeeded In concentrating during
the great storm without serious en-
counters with the enemy. 1t was
known that a division of the new
American dreadnaughts, steaming by
night through the hurricane, had sur
prised and driven off a detail Of the
regents Carthage battle cruisers and
Sargons which had attempted to cut

Again it was only subconsciously and
without bitterness that Bob recorded
this. He had too much which was ter
ribly immediate for his attention. He
had become aware that the telephone

from the chief fire control station, had
been silent for several salvos. The

your fire destroy foremost and funnel

most constant as the Varon's shells
struck and struck again.
AS it happened, the foremost TEL

turret could not turn to keep trained
