er opera house. 1t was not until

state tournament basketball tourna-
ment held at Decatur. However.
the position of the Knox athletics
authorities has been consistent and
unchanged and it is their belief that
there are two sides to the question.
With this in mind We are sending
the following account Of our Views

by not entering the tournament.
Enox lays aside any claim to the
state college championship, in spite
OF any reports to the contrary. II
is realized that the tournament ID s
the method that has been chosen to-
settle the championship and the
winner at Decatur can justly claim
this honor. Because Of their record
during the season, which showed IL
victories and four defeats in coll
lege games, the Knox team should
have had fairly good chance to-
cop the tournament and thus they
themselves lose what seems to be
an excellent opportunity to win the
state championship. Certainly 9TH
er colleges should not object to
knox's loss of opportunity because
OF strict adherence to her beliefs.
Journeys Obsolete.
AT the time Of the formation Of
the I. l. A. c. in Peoria last May, It
was quite generally agreed that the
tournament last year was not q
bowling success and the consensus
among the stronger colleges in the
conference seemed to be that COLI
lege basketball Journeys were -
thing of the past. In fact, it ID
doubtful il Knox would have joined
the conference if it had thought
that each member was bound, NOR
ally or otherwise, to participate in
something to which they we're abso-
lutely opposed. Again at the an
nual meeting when the smaller col
leges Of the conference outvoted
the larger schools and decided that
a tournament would be held, the
Knox representative defl-itely stat
