In picking an a~ll-district basketball
team many things have to be consid-
cred. Several star basketeers graced
the university floor during the tour
nAment Of the fifth district held here
Friday and Saturday and many play
ers who had been touted as stars
failed to shine during the competi-
ton.
The performance Of the men during
the entire season has not been taken
into consideration but merely he
showing made when pitted against
the best teams entered in the tourney.
In picking this team every player was
given equal and careful considera-
ton. There nay have been better
players in the tournament but they
failed to show up in h tournament
games. according to h judgment Of
the writer.
The Team.
The, following first team has been
Ed. Boe, Grand Forks. for
ward.
N. Geston. Grafton, forward.
#. Yoder, Grand Forks, center.
H. Boo, Grand Forks guard
and captain.
r. Trotter, Grand Forks. guard.
While it may seem that there is an
abundance of Grand Forks men list
ed for the mythical team. it was defi-
nitely proven during the course of the
four games participated in by the
men that they earned the honors.
Ed. Doe has c chosen to hold
ono Of the forward positions on his
ability to shoot. if nothing else. When
given the ball at any position on the
floor he is dangerous. He posses
ses a cool head and always figures
prominently when a rapid passing
game is necessary.
Mike Geston Of Grafton is very
small OF stature but has a fighting
spirit that is hard to duplicate. The
%youngster handles himself we'll on the
floor. is an accurate shot and has a
good, cool head. Tommy Tharalson,
Geston's running mate, could also be
placed in this position without mate
rally injuring the team. Tharalson
is a player Of wide experience but cas-
lily loses his temper which counts
against him considerably. He did moi
show up as good in the tourney as die
either Ed. Doe or GestOn.
Fred Slim Yodcr of Grand Forks
has been chosen for the center job
Yoder had. no competition for the po.

Following is a letter received by
The Herald sporting editor in reply
to an article which appeared in the
sport columns on Wednesday. March
2. The article was a question to the
public on whether or not Grand
Forks was to become a mecca for
sporting events in the northwest, and
was prompted by false rumors that
promoters of Q recent boxing show
had made enormous profits from the
enterprise:
Sporting Editor.

Will the sporting man aver learn to
be as good a loser as he is a winner
A fellow mist take into consideration
that when he puts his money up ON
anything of chance there must be two
sides. What one wins another mus,

man who can come up smiling and
not let the world know HE LOST is
the good loser.
Well Balanced Card.

matter how much of a run they get

In the promoting of any athletic
event the promoter is the one that
takes the chances Of losing. And in
most cases he does lose or the first or
second match. at least until he has es-
tabhshed himself and has got the con
fdence of the fans. and has made

Of the principles in the main event

Now that the excitement Of the bas-

judged to be a tie after several hours
of argument on the par Of the ON

of Grafton were T~haralson's closest
