BASKETEERS SEEK
NATIONAL HoNORS
W. :. C.'s Champion Basketball Quin-
tet May Take Part in Ma
tional Competition
at Chicago

With the basketball championship
of the Northwest and the Pacific
Coast conferences safely tucked away
Coach J. f. Boiler and his crew of
State College basketball men may be
entered in the tournament that is to
decide the championship of the Unit
ed States during the month of March.
AS recognition of the teams great
record in winning the championship
of the two conferences in which 1t
was entered an invitation came this
week to participate in the National
basketball tournament which is to
be held in Chicago on March IS, 10,
and | Z under the auspices Of the Illi-
nois \. G. The tournament is sane
toned by the American Amateur
union and the championship of the
United States will be bestowed upon
the winning team.
Whether or not the Washington
State College five will be entered in
the series depends upon the making
of satisfactory financial arrange
ments The invitation to participate
carries the implication that each
team will pay it's own expenses, but
the long trip that would be necessi-
tated for the w. S. c. men would
probably be too expensive to Justify
itself.
Acting on the knowledge that the
tournament will be a good financial
venture for the club under whose aus
pices it is held, Coach Boiler has
communicated with the club officials
and urged that the expenses of the
visiting teams be paid by the tourna-
ment management. In case the sug-
gestion is received favorably the w.
S. c. champions will undoubtedly be
sent east to compete for the high
honors. In case satisfactory ar
rangements are made Coach Boiler
and the team will probably go to
Chicago early enough to familiarize
themselves with the pecularities OF
the floor on which they will be pitted
against the best basketball teams in
the United States.
The W. S. c. five has won eight of
its nine conference games, a percent
age of $50. California and w. S. C.
broke even in two games but Cali
fornia has won but three and lost
one contest, giving the Southern team
percentage Of but 1850 and it is
expected that the championship will
be decided on this basis.
