DEFEAT BOISE HIGH
Fridays Game Results in Victory
for Locals, Score 43 to Is.
1Copyrisht.l

The Mountain Home high school
basketball team added another game TO
their list of victories ON FRIDAY eve
ming, January 28th, when they met
the Boise high school team at the
school house gymnasium and defeated
them by a scone of 43 to 13.
The Boise team was the most for
midable that the local boys have yet
encountered and the game was hard
fought. A pleasing feature was the
entire absence of Intentional rough
ness on the part of the players and 1t
was gratifying to the fans to note the
fairness and gentlemanly conduct OF
all players concerned.
In Justice to the visitors 1t must be
said that the high score made against
them was due in great measure 70
Ill luck. The bali had habit OF
showing up just where the Mountain
Home boys wanted it, AT other
times they had the skill to put it
where they desired Boise S forwards
made no goals, owing to the vigilance
of Ray Wyatt and Hill Ottenhelmer
guards of the local team. The latter
played great game and repeatedly
broke up the attempted plays of the
Boise team
Carl Miller, center for Mountain
Home was in fine form and cap
tured field goals. Osborne Casey,
forward, got field goals and pulled
down IL free throws out of 16
chances. Tye, forward, played in the
fastest form he has ever shown, and
his feeding OF the ball to Miller @nd
Casey was a feature of the evening.
He secured field goals.
For Boise, Rankin and Smith did
the star work. Ranking making 2
field goals and Smith Z free throws
out of IA chances.
Inc attendance was mot UP TO the
mark that makes the matter of fin
ance one not to worry over. The
boys feel that the enthusiasm of the
fans in providing gate receipts to meet
the expenses of these fine exhibitions
of the game should at least be equal
to that shown by the players DIN the
work of getting i'm shape to bring
victory to the team.
Am effort lis being made to Arrange
a game with Caldwell for next Friday
night. The team expects to have
Payette here on February II, and
gooding has been definitely dated for
a RETURN game here ON March 10.

RURAL CREDIT PLAN
Weiser Man Invited by League to
Explain Its Workings.

Mem bers of the Development League
on Thursday evening listened to an
exposition of the Weiser system OF
farm credits made by George &.
Cooley, who was present ON invita-
tion of the league. Mr. Cooley is
trustee of the Weiser Rural Credit
Association having held that position
since its organization year ago.
The association at Weiser which
operated successfully last year con-
sisted of thjlty-one memb rs, all mer-
! chants of the town, who had entered
into cooperative arrangement for
extending credit to the farmers of
that community,
The trustee, whose duties We're also
those of field man, received APP
plications from farmers who desired
credit in which were Incorporated a
statement of the applicants assets
and liabilities, aus well as a list OF
his property and growing crops. All
application We're passed upon by a
committee Upon approval of his ap-
plication, the party desired credit exc
cuted mortgage on his growing
crops and was given credit certl-
ficate good at the store of amy
member of the association. In con-
nection with the certificate were
blank drafts which We're filled out
and used at the time purchases We're
mad2, and interest ran from the date
of the use of the draft. A record of
all transactions and OF the issuance
of the draft was kept at the office
OF the trustee, who acted i'm the ca
pacity of clearing house for the
mem bens of the association.
The workings OF the association
We're brought to the attention OF
John Perrin chairman OF the board
of directors of the Federal Reserve
Bank of San Francisco. and the system
was given his endors ement In a letter
to the banks i'm the district connected
with that institution.
The subject is one which is new TO
the business men of Mountain Home
and 1t was for this reason that Mr..
Coolsy was invited to appear here.
After his talk at the league, the
gentleman was piled with questions as
to its operation. He said 1T had
proven the solution of a difficult pro-
blem at Weiser and that the asso-
citation would enlarge it's scope the
coming season. That the system
had the endorsement of the Federal
Reserve Bank Was a strong point In
it's favor, said MIR, Cooley, as IT
meant that the Reserve Bank would
handle the paper of the association
and thus provide means for fmanc-
ing business operations.
