on the Waterloo met by their high
school basket ball team in the state
tournament at Moscow, still claims for
it the championship of Southern Ida
no because, prior to the tournament
it defeated every team met from the
southern section and made better
showing than that of Twin Falls in
the tournament" OF its record prior
to the tournament there is nothing to
be said, except that it failed to meet
any of the strong teams from the
eastern section. At the tournament,
it will also be noted it sought no test
against Twin Falls. And as to the
better showing" there, the same team
that took the game from Twin by a
single basket, made five seconds be-
fore the gun cracked, showed much
stronger compared with Boise! "The
proof of the pudding is in chewing the
stringl" If Boise thinks she can beat
Twin, let her seek to arrange match.
She will find no disbursement down
